The Power Hour | Cryptocurrency and Energy Use with Norbert Michel and Nicolas Anthony

Heard at Heritage

The Power Hour is a weekly podcast that discusses the most interesting energy and environmental policy issues of the day with top national experts. Jack welcomes the Cato Institute’s Nicolas Anthony back to the Power Hour, who is joined this time by his colleague Norbert Michel, Vice President for Cato’s Center for Monetary Policy and Financial Alternatives. They pick up their conversation from a few months ago to dig deeper into what actually is cryptocurrency and why does the industry require so much energy. And of course, no Power Hour episode would be complete without a complete analysis of how government could ruin something good and innovative. You can read more from Anthony and Norbert here and here and on a variety of issues here and following them on socials here and here. Join the conversation with an email to [e-mail]!
