Yeah, perhaps I did get a little bit excited.
Sorry, I was a bit harsh. Overall I think you did a fine job. You definitely got people excited. The anon stuff just seemed a bit too much. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Bitcoin Fact: the price of bitcoin will not be greater than $70k for more than 25 consecutive days at any point in the rest of recorded human history.

Yes, explaining bitcoin as a PROTOCOL is very effective and the truth in the plainest sense.
A set of rules laid down that people are free to choose to adhere to or not as they wish. I think this is key to getting people to see the difference between the grass-roots capitalism of bitcoin and the discredited trickle-down capitalism of central bank fiat currency.
It is not really a project but multitude of projects aimed at adhering to the protocol.

+1 This really is the way we need to start thinking and talking about it.

If you found my post helpful, feel free to send a small tip to 1QGukeKbBQbXHtV6LgkQa977LJ3YHXXW8B Visit the BitCoin Q&A Site to ask questions or share knowledge. 0.009 BTC too confusing? Use mBTC instead! Details at www.em-bit.org or visit the project thread to help make Bitcoin prices more human-friendly.

Good show...I would just suggest a bit less emphasis on potential legal issues bitcoin could face and focus more on the technology, how it works, what gives it value, etc. Explain what bitcoin is and the good that will come from it rather than give the audience every possible reason under the sun to fear it or fear using it.

The guy on the right is Genjix.
I read this before watching the show. When it came on and they introduced "Amir Taaki" I was wondering who the hell that was and where Genjix was. It me half a second to realize that "Genjix" would not actually be his real name.... ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) Where is he from? There's a British accent mixed in with something else.

watchable now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwNfBgwbqngI shoulda butted in, I think I'm too polite to be on a show with Jason Calacanis...
Yeah, perhaps I did get a little bit excited.
As others said, I enjoyed the show. I also liked the fact that you both answered about the multiple sides of Bitcoin.

Really great show guys.
I'm half way through it right now.
Very informative and interesting points.
Did Gavin mention that all 21 million BTC will be released over the next 140 years earlier in the video? Maybe 5-10 minutes in? Perhaps I simply heard wrong...

The show could have been very good if the hosts would have moderated the discussion so that Gavin had a chance to speak. Genjix is very good at building excitement -- we just need Gavin to balance that out with some reality.
Gavin interrupted more than I would have been able to... I hate these kinds of situations.

It was a good interview. Calacinus is pretty switched on as far as media guys go (hadn't heard him before), the "humble indy bundle" threw him for a wobbly ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Would be interested to hear more from both Gavin and Genjix, different takes ... more interviews to come from I hope.
