BITCOIN CONNECTS US ALL - METAMICK (Bitcoin Talk on THE Bitcoin Podcast)

"There's no excuse anymore to not help someone who's suffering on the other part of the world because Bitcoin connects you and the only disconnection is actually in your mind and your heart and in your intent. So that's what's beautiful. Bitcoin actually gives us the choice to do good."

On this Bitcoin Talk episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, Walker talks with "MetaMick" -- cofounder and CEO of Geyser.
