Graham Krizek is the Founder and CEO of Voltage, which provides simple bitcoin infrastructure to everyone. In this conversation, we discuss the Lightning Network, how it works, why it is so valuable, current progress, the importance of infrastructure, and how products are leveraging Lightning. ======================= Choice is a new self-directed IRA product that I'm really excited about. If you are listening to this, you are likely part of the 7.1 million bitcoin owners who have retirement accounts with dollars in them, but not bitcoin. I was in that situation too. Now you can actually buy real Bitcoin in your retirement account. I'm talking about owning your private keys and using tax-advantaged dollars to do it too. Absolute game changer. https://www.retirewithchoice.com/pomp ======================= Inflation is rising at its fastest levels since 2008…And the Fed is still printing money like their life depends on it. The stock market is trading at record highs. And bond yields are stuck near zero percent...That’s got me worried. But a great way to play out this nightmare scenario is with fine art. Now you can hedge against inflation the same way billionaires have for decades...By investing in multimillion-dollar paintings from artists like Picasso and Banksy and Basquiat, quwhich I still can’t pronounce. Contemporary art specifically, has outperformed S&P returns by 174% from 1995–2020. That’s huge. Considering the epic bull run we’ve all just experienced. Masterworks dot io is the first platform to democratize art investing so anyone can get involved. I’ve had their CEO Scott Lynn on the show a few times, and they’ve been a long time supporter. In honor of bitcoin hitting $46k, they’re giving me 46 passes to skip their waitlist. Just go to masterworks dot io slash pomp. That’s masterworks.io/pomp. Do yourself a favor and head over there right now. See important disclosures at masterworks dot io slash disclaimer
