So many of the podcasts I find are made for experts. I have tons of friends who want to understand what Bitcoin is, what the blockchain is, what cryptocurrency is. What are the best podcasts for beginners to learn?

Are there any altcoins/ICOs accepting Bitcoin Gold?
Yesterday, the team at licensingcoinmarketplace.com voted to accept BTG! Only one that I'm aware of. (I'm on the board there.)
Do we have to go through the website or is it already on an exchange?

that is a GREAT idea! I have not heard of any but seeing as how it's really unclear what is happening and what is possible with Bitcoin Gold, I would like to swap mine for something else. What exchanges will be most likely to be set up for this?

Hodl? Ha ha.
Seriously, I heard you can't really transfer it until Nov 1 and the value is sort undetermined?
Can I trade mine for some other alt-coins?

Oh that's cool, I just realized the backdrop for your bright pink image with the quote is the image from the original abstract from VERNAM's . "SECRET SIGNALING SYSTEM"

Looking forward to downloading.
I'm curious what tools did you use to publish this?
And what kind of download numbers have you gotten so far?

Re: Does Segwit2x impact Bitcoin or Bitcoin Cash or both?

I have been reading up on Segwit2X (https://bravenewcoin.com/news/bitcoin-core-developers-issue-segwit2x-hard-fork-warning/ but still have some basic questions like does it impact just Bitcoin or also Bitcoin cash. Does it matter if I have BTC in my wallet or in an exchange? Thanks.
You MUST have your BTC in your own private wallet, so start by downloading Bitcoin Core, which is ideal.

If you don't want to download the whole blockchain, get a paper wallet, or Electrum wallet. Anything where you control your private keys, otherwise you will NOT receive the coins on the other chain.

So if we do not download the whole blockchain, or get a paper/or Electrum wallet, (to control private keys) does that mean we lose everything? lose the opportunity for the fork? what is worst case scenario. Seems very confusing.

After this Bitcoin surge, will investors sell off and buy Alt-coins?
by

What happened the last time Bitcoin surged? Didn't investors sell off? I heard a theory that when bitcoin investors sell off, they still don't want to cash out because of the IRS question so they move the money into alt-coins. Should we expect an alt-coin surge?

Heck no! I am in my 50s, I am old. And that keeps me waking up each day full of life. The idea of living forever just takes all the carpe diem out of life!

Looking for some critical analysis of this coin. I love the idea but wondering if Licensing Coin should really be more ambitious-- $500k cap seems low to really take this on.

Re: [ANN] [ICO] Munchee: Yelp meet Instagram - A blockchain-based restaurant review

I love this concept, Yelp and even Google Maps, as large as they are still fail to get me exactly what I am looking for. They are ripe for disruption and flipping the script to focus on products (meals) as opposed to places has a good chance to do I think. When I was visiting Napa last weekend, we wanted find the best smoothie. Yelp sent me to a location that had closed six years ago. Google Maps wanted me to drive 25 miles away. That night we wanted to find a GREAT bottle of gin, again, yelp and google maps were unable to process my request effectively.
