Why should we have Leo on our side, he is an old dude, that has no clue about tech. I never respected him he is the Jay Leno of the tech world doesn't want to give up but should retire.

Steve is an old dude too!

But Steve is open minded and accepting of bitcoin, and Leo is just not open to the idea of bitcoin. That is what I gathered from that video.

well, if you want donations, you better start loving Bitcoin more loudly, clearly, and frequently.

Yea! If someone doesn't immediately grasp the concept of bitcoin until they see it in action then they should obviously jsut STFU. Clearly, this is the way forward.

Leo starts very Bitcoin-negative, which he usually seems,

You'ld think that in the two years plus since Leo first "didn't get it" (after the exchange rate first reached parity with the dollar) that he'ld get it by now.

Of course, this has nothing to do with technology and all to do with politics. And he's entitled to his opinion.

its simpler than that.

he just wants handouts.

This is a huge PR opportunity! As many people should try to donate as much as possible by next week.

123ZYj4MCXiek1btZQ7dE5qGD6hTLHzxRs is the address.

Thanks for adding that, foo. I'm still watching the episode. The QR code is shown between minutes 34 and 35.

Later in the show Leo creates an address for donations and shows a QR-code on screen. You can now donate to TWiT with Bitcoin.

about the first 11 minutes:

Leo starts very Bitcoin-negative, which he usually seems, if you ask me, but Steve almost seems to convince him this time that it could really be a legitimate thing. Steve is definitely seems to be very Bitcoin-bullish.

They also plug the episode where Steve originally discusses Bitcoin (or at least discusses it in more detail - I've not seen the episode yet) as Security Now episode 287.
