First hour: Is Bitcoin dying?
Second hour: The Seneca Park Zoo Society's 2019 Environmental Innovation Awards
Is Bitcoin dying? Depends on whom you ask. Some analysts say yes: the first major cryptocurrency has lost half its value since July. Others say no: in the past year, Bitcoin’s value has essentially doubled, despite some volatile swings. But most Americans still don’t own or use cryptocurrency. So where is it going? Our guests debate it:
- Mike Komaransky, head of Grapefruit Trading, and long-time Bitcoin supporter
- George Conboy, chairman of Brighton Securities
- Gary Palmer, Jr., founder of MintingCoins.com and Bitcoin NYS
The Seneca Park Zoo Society's 2019 Environmental Innovation Awards had at least one common theme: food sustainability. Human beings waste a tremendous amount of food, and food production contributes to climate change. So how can we do it better? Our guests discuss their work, and why it might inspire others to do the same.
