I am a big fan of Jack, but really no point in listening to him regularly, he just rams home the same talking points, better he focus on strike than waste time on the podcast circle jerk

Also PM has become impossible to listen to, I'd much rather listen to Jack on another show where the host can actually offer thoughts of his/her own

I kind of agree but for normal people this kind of receptiveness is helpful. We are more likely to believe things when we hear them frequently.

Will strike.me open in 50-100 new countries in 2022?

In the video he said multiple times that he's (I'm paraphrasing) in for the long haul, and not worried about such and such happening by Q3.

So maybe they'll have expansion to multiple countries in 2022, but I'ld bet if even their most optimistic plans pan out, you would still be off by at least an order of magnitude.

Over the past few years, Jack Mallers has made your “bank account speak bitcoin” with Strike, started the “pay me in Bitcoin” campaign, and was instrumental in onboarding an entire country on to Bitcoin, but he’s only just getting started.

Bitcoin is an open monetary network that enables a free market for payments and unprecedented interoperability. With money moving at the speed of lightning on a level playing field, the money and payments industries are being disrupted at a staggering pace.

Now, calls are pouring in from massive players trying to understand how the world is changing. So who will Jack orange pill next?

In this interview, I talk to Jack Mallers, CEO of Strike. We discuss his interactions with the IMF, Facebook, Jeff Bezos, and Argentina, and the global implications of the Bitcoin network.

Jack: "The only people that like VISA is VISA."

Peter: "Will Visa join [Lightning network]?" Jack: "I think they'll have to."
