SOB #484 A Brief History of Bitcoin Tipping (and Where Twitter Fits in it)

<p>This time on Speaking of Bitcoin, join hosts Stephanie Murphy, Jonathan Mohan and Adam B. Levine for a look at bitcoin tipping through the ages. From the dogecoin-like fun and fervor of the early days to the game-changing bridges that first brought it to twitter, the hosts dig into Youtube, Changetip, TechCrunch and more.&nbsp;</p> <p>But what happened to tipping? What was once the raison d'être of the early cryptocurrency experience faded away, as what was thought of as money turned out to be gold: Too precious to just toss around... Or was it?</p> <p>In this episode we dig into the thought, experience and philosophy behind bitcoin tipping, how it changed and finally whether it's on the uptrend yet again.</p> <p>Links from this episode:</p> <p>Youtube is Broken - Rethinking Content Monetization with Bitcoin (2013)</p> <p>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4tgNi5gle0</p> <p>Kickstarter Coins - TechCrunch (2014)</p> <p>https://techcrunch.com/2014/02/15/kickstarter-coins-2/</p> <p>Have any questions or comments?
