Will others follow his lead?</p> <p>Many assumed Nic was a Bitcoin maximalist, but really he's just Nic Carter. Who are you and what do you stand for?</p> <p>------<br /> 📣JUNO | Crypto Friendly Banking<br /> <a href= "https://juno.finance/bankless">https://juno.finance/bankless</a> </p> <p>------<br /> 🚀 SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER: <a href= "https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/">https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/</a> <br /> 🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST: <a href= "http://podcast.banklesshq.com/">http://podcast.banklesshq.com/</a> </p> <p>------<br /> BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS:</p> <p>🚀ROCKET POOL | ETH STAKING<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/RocketPool">https://bankless.cc/RocketPool</a> </p> <p>⚖️ARBITRUM | SCALING ETHEREUM<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum">https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum</a> </p> <p>❎ACROSS | BRIDGE TO LAYER 2<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Across">https://bankless.cc/Across</a> </p> <p>🦁BRAVE | THE BROWSER NATIVE WALLET<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Brave">https://bankless.cc/Brave</a> </p> <p>🌴MAKER DAO | ECO-FRIENDLY STABLECOIN<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/MakerDAO">https://bankless.cc/MakerDAO</a> </p> <p>🔐LEDGER | SECURE STAKING<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Ledger">https://bankless.cc/Ledger</a> </p> <p>------<br /> Topics Covered:</p> <p>0:00 Intro<br /> 7:50 The Cyberhornets Attack<br /> 14:45 Bitcoin Maxi Motivation<br /> 30:30 Bitcoin’s Intolerant Community<br /> 42:19 Bitcoin’s Long-term Sustainability<br /> 46:50 How Nic’s Feeling About the Bear<br /> 49:30 Macro & Crypto<br /> 58:55 Free Banking<br /> 1:05:53 Regulation<br /> 1:06:57 Why to Stay in Crypto<br /> 1:10:12 Closing & Disclaimers</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>Nic Carter<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/ni
