Builders In Bitcoin EP15: Bitcoin is Good, pt. 2 w/ Grant McCarty, Co-Executive Director - Bitcoin Policy Institute

I had the pleasure of sitting down with Grant McCarty, Co-Founder and Co-Executive Director of the Bitcoin Policy Institute (BPI), to discuss political engagement and advocacy around Bitcoin.
