▶ 51:10 Tim McCusker And then shifting currency regimes started out talking a lot about Bitcoin because everyone wanted to hear what was going on there. 2 times in the scene

▶ 23:36 Michael Batnick So whether it's Bitcoin or the pot stocks or whatever, there's always going to be something that, that you don't own that's kicking ass.

▶ 18:23 Stephen McKeon It started to grow, so I was on the board there, and that was the experience through which I actually bumped into Bitcoin and blockchain.
▶ 26:04 Stephen McKeon So I cold emailed, like, Brian Armstrong, the CEO of Coinbase, and I cold emailed Patrick Byrne of Overstock and a bunch of others, like, anyone who was kind of using Bitcoin in commerce in some way. 2 times in the scene
▶ 33:40 Stephen McKeon And so not all blockchain, like Bitcoin is very clearly not a security, they've said as much, right?
▶ 35:02 Stephen McKeon Bitcoin is traded 24 seven. 3 times in the scene
▶ 42:34 Stephen McKeon So that is the thing that we've been missing until really the Bitcoin blockchain was invented, is that most of the protocols we have today have been good for moving various types of information, but not necessarily for moving value.
▶ 1:08:26 Ted Seides Well, Steven, I really enjoyed the thesis and talking to you about this because it's probably the first time other than the notion of Bitcoin as a digital currency that I actually could understand.

▶ 4:06 Ted Seides Last fall, I wrote an opinion piece for institutional investors entitled When Will Yale Buy Bitcoin?
▶ 21:42 John Pfeffer So I had the good fortune of being a friend of Vincis Casares, who is known as Bitcoin Patient Zero. 7 times in the scene
▶ 26:42 Ted Seides So you start with a 15 minute conversation that leads to small, modest investment in Bitcoin. 6 times in the scene
▶ 43:41 John Pfeffer Well, Bitcoin's the first candidate to do that. 6 times in the scene

▶ 33:42 Ali Hamed It's the Bitcoins, it's the Ethers, it's the Ripples. 3 times in the scene
▶ 35:34 Ali Hamed And so the first one that's probably easiest to understand is Bitcoin or crypto assets as a store value. 6 times in the scene
▶ 43:20 Ali Hamed Should I, like, sit in my office with thirty million dollars of Bitcoin, like, and private keys, like, in a safe?
▶ 45:39 Ali Hamed Like, Bitcoin probably has enough upside, or the more mature crypto assets probably have enough upside that you probably don't have to go too far down the risk curve to, like, get real alpha in your portfolio.
▶ 52:11 Ali Hamed As an allocator, I'd have a really hard time, by the way, investing in blockchain funds, because I can meet a lot of people who talk shit about Bitcoin, and I can't meet a lot of people who are haters on the blockchain.

▶ 22:49 Ted Seides Are you getting the Bitcoin question yet? 3 times in the scene
