This was such a good episode, I hope every Bitcoiner takes the time to watch this. I have always enjoyed listening to Parker, as he has such a deep understanding of Bitcoin and is able to explain complex concepts very clearly. I enjoyed this chat because you covered such a wide variety of topics, including many I have never heard him discuss. First, I learned a ton about the history of Texas (go figure, lol) which was super interesting. Also, somehow I didn't know the exact origin of his phrase “Gradually, then suddenly”. There were countless important concepts covered, so I will encourage others to watch the entire episode, but his statement that the entire OP_Return debate wouldn’t even have been discussed if mining wasn’t so centralized really resonated with me and was sort of an "aha moment". Cannot recommend this episode enough!
"I think healthcare though is turning Texas blue...Houston is home to the
largest medical center in the world and it brings in people from all over and I think mandates started in Texas for a reason. I think they did it here to test the waters; they knew if they could get get away with it in Texas they could get away with it anywhere."
Parker Lewis! Yes!’ Looking forward this one ⚡️
He's so grounded and smart!

Larry, thank you for watching and getting so much value out of it!
Interesting points about Texas and freedom!
Dr. Mary Talley Bowden had a sobering view in her Joe Rogan interview earlier this week:
