E20 - Simon Collins on Orange Pilling New Zealand Parliament
Description
Simon Collins is the founder of Stackr.co.nz, a Bitcoin mining company that uses sustainable and renewable energy sources. Simon is also the lead on the fundraising campaign to Orange Pill New Zealand parliament, and that is what we're talking about today. As we lead up to an election here in New Zealand we're listening to a lot of promises from the parties, many of them economic, but none of them are talking of potential alternative financial paths. The plan is simple: raise money to buy copies of The Bitcoin Standard to send to all 120 MPs in New Zealand's next, 54th parliament.
