All links resources and the audio of this video will be available at https://thebitcoinbreakout.com/state-of-btc/ about one hour after the live stream of this video is over. Today I wanted to go solo on a variety of bitcoin and lightning network topics I see popping up a lot in listener emails, youtube live chat and especially on Bitcoin Twitter.  There is a lot going on, good news, FUD and some actual misinformation.  You know real "misinformation" not the MSM version of the word.  Full details for this and all upcoming streams can always be found at http://tspclive.com.
