00:00Hey, guys.
00:01Oh, Stuart Good, I was wondering, will you be accepting Bitcoin?
00:05Well, I don't know what that is, but it's got coin in it, and my cash register doesn't.
00:10So, yeah.
00:14What's Bitcoin?
00:15It's a new online currency that's been developed.
00:18It's just like actual money, except you can't see it, hold it, or spend it on anything.
00:24Sounds like the kind of money I'm familiar with.
00:28If it's not tangible, how do you know it's not just gonna vanish tomorrow?
00:32Really? You're dating Penny and you're gonna poke at something that could vanish tomorrow?
00:38I'm nice in Bitcoin. I just came into a little extra money when my dad raised my allowance.
00:44You don't have to buy Bitcoin, you can mine it.
00:47Mine it? Like mining gold?
00:50Sort of. There's a limited amount, and we find it not by tunneling into the earth,
00:54but by using a computer to solve complex mathematical problems.
00:57So let me get this straight. We have to write an elaborate program in order to find a fake coin that we can't spend on anything?
01:04Yes.
01:05That sounds fun.
01:07Yeah, I'm in.
01:08Staying up late, writing code, it sounds like a party.
01:11Hey, Stuart, you wanna mine some Bitcoin with us? We'll write the program, you bring the snacks?
01:16Too rich for my blood.
01:19Alright, so just the four of us.
01:22Before we begin, this may have some unprecedented tax implications.
01:26In fact, we should start early, because we're gonna be on the phone with the IRS for hours.
01:31Did anybody else just get goosebumps?
01:34Great, so just the three of us.
