I would have interviewed him for 2 hours, but unfortunately we recorded at the end of a long conference day, after he gave the closing keynote speech and had to speak with everyone who approached him.
He was tired, told me I only have 20 minutes and somehow managed to get 30. Honestly, I'm honored that he talked to me at all and I'm happy that I was able to capture some views of his about which he doesn't talk during his speeches – he's mainly focused on telling the story of his legal battles from the 1990s, but doesn't mention Hal Finney or Bitcoin.
I suspected that was the case 😃 you would have had enough material I have no doubt, to go another 6 rounds.
You could tell he enjoyed the conversation as he was able to give more insight than he normally would in some of those areas, because of your past reading.
One of my favourite interviews of this year and that’s the first time I’ve heard Phil talk.
Which questions or topics would you have loved to dig deeper into, if you had had the time?
