Premiered on Mar 01, 2023

Today, Alex and Shimon discuss the latest Bitcoin news, the decoupling of Bitcoin and the traditional markets, and the Celsius bankruptcy proceedings. Critically, the Celsius retail clawback rule and how that can affect. Our guest today is Kristen Ragusin. Kristen is a professional wealth management consultant with twenty-five years of experience. Investing over $150 million, she helps clients navigate markets and achieve financial goals. She is a certified digital currency professional and earned her Master’s Degree from the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University. Kristen holds certificates in FinTech from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and in Money and Society from the University of Cumbria, London.

The latest episode of the “Auction Show” covers various news in the crypto industry. The hosts start by discussing the flat price action of Bitcoin, which has decreased 5% in the past week and shows signs of short-term bearish divergence. However, Bitcoin has remained steady despite inflation rates increasing in the United States. The hosts also note that Bitcoin is decoupling from NASDAQ, solidifying its position as a commodity that performs better than the stock market. They also discuss the recent surge in natural gas prices, which will have an impact on Bitcoin since it operates as a synthetic commodity that sees its security increase when its demand and price increase rather than its supply. The featured interview in the episode is with Kristen Ragusin, who discusses the misunderstanding of money and how Bitcoin can help solve the issue. The hosts also touch on the Celsius bankruptcy and FTX’s guilty plea.

Jesse and Priscilla talk with Oxford professor of philosophy of theoretical physics, Owen Maroney, about whether it’s more likely that each moment of our experience bursts in and out of existence out of nowhere.

What is the Boltzmann Brain Paradox?

  • The Boltzmann Brain Paradox questions the formation of intelligent life in the universe by suggesting that it might simply be a random fluctuation of entropy.
  • Maroney discusses the implications of this paradox for the nature of reality and consciousness.
  • The Boltzmann Brain Paradox suggests that complex systems, such as intelligent life, might be a result of random fluctuations of entropy rather than natural processes.
  • The paradox challenges the traditional view that intelligent life arises through evolution and natural selection, and suggests that we might simply be living in a temporary fluctuation of the universe’s entropy.
  • The paradox raises questions about the nature of reality and consciousness, and whether our understanding of the universe is limited by our own cognitive biases.
  • Maroney suggests that the paradox may be a result of our own limited understanding of the universe, and that we may need to rethink our conception of entropy and information.
  • The paradox also has implications for the search for extraterrestrial life, as it suggests that the formation of intelligent life might be far less probable than we currently believe.
  • Ultimately, the Boltzmann Brain Paradox challenges us to question our assumptions about the universe and our place in it, and to remain open to the possibility that our understanding of reality may be far more complex and mysterious than we can currently imagine.
