Nick Colas interviewed again on Bloomberg.

Bit of a grilling from Tom Keene which he could have handled better.

The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

Not bad. I actually like that vid.
The old sceptic smart guy is asking very important questions even though he is obviously taking side of FED and governments/central banks.

Mainstream, objective commentary like this can be a game changer.

Here on these forums it's easy to think the whole world is following the rise of bitcoin - but most investors are still just not paying much attention.

If you pass this link along to any bitcoin-unaware investors you know, they may thank you for it later. How many times have you heard "why didn't you tell me about bitcoin earlier?" or "if I only took the time to learn about bitcoin back in..."

Nice coverage.  I didn't detect malice on the part of the geezer interviewer, more a mix of curiosity and skepticism.  The girl is always lovely and fair, and you just know she digs Bitcoin.  Bloomberg seems definitely a cut above CNBC in terms of depth and seriousness.

Colas got a bit flustered and made some erroneous statements but pulled through.  I'm liking this guy, less knowledgeable than someone like Trace, but his intentions seem to be in the right place.

Nick Colas seems like a good spokesperson but I wish he had a better way of explaining the hard 21 mil. limit on BTC. This is THE key concept and this interview probably left the viewer with the impression that Bitcion is centrally controlled by a bunch of unknown hackers in Wisconsin.
