Stories and Bitcoin with Nelson Chen - Meet the Taco Plebs

In this episode of Bitcoin Magazine’s “Meet The Taco Plebs,” I was lucky enough to sit down with one of my favorite contributors here at the magazine, Nelson Chen. I have worked with Chen to publish six of his twelve part series about Jordan Peterson’s book, “Beyond Order.”

In his series, Chen discusses a variety of topics. Many of these topics relate back to the idea of stories told across generations - allegories and discussions that help to explain the world we live in. Chen believes that these stories are what we can use to help navigate the future, and that they are also very much related to Bitcoin and the issues we will face as we continue towards hyperbitcoinization.
