This is episode 263 of You, Me, and BTC – your liberty and Bitcoin podcast.
If you're paying attention, you may notice some missing YMB episodes. We skipped straight from E260 to E263 because Dan's been out of town for a few weeks. Tim ran things solo for awhile, so the last few shows only exist on YouTube for now. Eventually we'll add them to our website and our podcast feeds and everywhere else...
But hey, did you catch that? Dan's back! That means we can finally talk about real legit crypto stuff again.
Today's first topic is this morning's Bitcoin hearing for the United States Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Community Affairs. Zack actually attended the debate between Dr. Nouriel Roubini (a huge Bitcoin hater) and Peter Van Valkenburgh (a Bitcoin advocate).
Then later in the show, we'll dive into an interesting stat from the Bitcoin charts. Apparently, the volatility index recently hit a record low for 2018. Is this a good sign? Should it make Bitcoin easier to use? Or does it mean we've petered out to nothingness?
Tune in for all the fun tonight at 9PM Eastern and check the list below for some of the specific stuff we'll cover!
- Bitcoin is the 'mother of all scams' and blockchain is most hyped tech ever, Roubini tells Congress
- Dr. Nouriel Roubini vs. Bitcoin: Senate Hearing Breaks Down His Arguments
- Bitcoin Price Volatility Falls To Lowest Of 2018

We recently saw record low #Bitcoin volatility. Does this make crypto more usable? Or does it mean no one's using it lately? Tune in live tonight at 9PM Eastern! https://t.co/3q9dDidSjr
