Ep. 31: Jeff Booth - Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is

You're The Voice | by Efrat Fenigson

🎙️ My guest today is Jeff Booth, a brilliant teacher and mentor, entrepreneur, investor and General Partner at ego death capital. He’s also a bestselling author of “The Price of Tomorrow”.

In this episode we discuss Jeff’s insights as an entrepreneur and investor in the Bitcoin ecosystem, explaining how bitcoin is repricing the world, while prices fall to the marginal cost of production.

Jeff highlights the importance of understanding the true risks of the existing financial system vs. the perception of risk for bitcoin. He covers the potential for Bitcoin-related companies to provide significant value, and the flow of money into the bitcoin industry. We explore the importance of marketing for companies (where we don’t necessarily agree), and address the fear of AI and its impact on society, highlighting the potential for control and manipulation. Sharing his spiritual viewpoint, Jeff talks about the importance of opting out of the control system, and embracing the freedom and abundance offered by Bitcoin. He concludes with the potential for scaling solutions like Lightning and federated models.
