April 19th, 2015 by

April 15th, 2015 by Rob Welcome to episode 15 of The Bitcoin Game, I'm Rob Mitchell.
While I usually try to be extremely professional on my podcast, this episode from the Friday night Kickoff Party for the Texas Bitcoin Conference may expose a slightly different side of me. I went straight from Austin–Bergstrom International Airport to Maria's Taco Express, where the party was held. I arrived to the sound of live music and a large patio area completely packed with Bitcoiners.

EB74 – Robby Dermody: Counterparty - Assets, Dividends And Decentralized Exchange
April 13th, 2015 by Epicenter In the crowded race to become the leading ‘Bitcoin 2.0’ platform, Counterparty has stood out by avoiding fancy crowdsales and instead building a platform that works. The protocol, which sits on top of Bitcoin and thus benefits from the security of its mining power, allows issuing assets, paying dividends or trading in a decentralized way. Over the past year, it has been the platform of choice for many crowdsales and is also what powers LTBCoin.
Co-Founder Robby Dermody joined us for a...

April 12th, 2015 by John Barrett On today's show I travel to beautiful San Diego, California for a conversation with my good friend Paul Puey the founder and CEO of Airbitz.co.

The Airbitz wallet does not host user funds on their servers so your chance of being goxed is nil, zero, nunca, nada. With meta data options the Airbitz bitcoin wallet is one of the most use...
