Is Bitcoin a religion? Or is it just money with a cult following?
In this episode of The Dollar is Dead, Jimmy Gorham and Jesse Posner dive into one of the most fascinating questions at the intersection of money, belief, and philosophy: whether Bitcoin functions as a religion.
We explore the parallels between faith and finance — from Bitcoin’s mysterious creation myth of Satoshi Nakamoto, to its community’s rituals, evangelism, and even “false prophets.” Along the way, we wrestle with the deeper human motivations behind money: fear, meaning, belonging, and the eternal struggle to avoid pain and achieve bliss.
