About the show

The Crypto Conversion Podcast is an ongoing conversation about the parallel values of cryptocurrency and Christianity. We believe the promise of a decentralized, censorship resistant web aligns with the mission of the Church and can help bring financial well-being and freedom to all. This podcast will attempt to look at the whacky world of crypto, blockchain, and web3 through a Christian lens, showing that when proper ethics and morals are applied crypto can be a force for good. Join us as we have informative and intriguing conversations weekly here on the Crypto Conversion Podcast.

Make Crypto Cypherpunk Again!

Welcome back for a conversation between the team on Vitalek Buterin's blog, Make Ethereum Cypherpunk Again. Together Connor, Matt and Branden discuss what this means and how the original warning signals from the Cypherpunks in the nineties during the internet origins in publicly accessible status. Is Ethereum what it was supposed to be when it was first made by Vitalek and his original team? Is the internet what it was intended to be when it was first made accessible to anyone who dared to adopt it? These just some the topics discussed in this episode.

The God at the End of the Universe | Implications of the Omega Point w/ Dr. Frank Tippler

Dr. Frank Tipler, professor of Mathematical Physics and Cosmology, as well as author of "Physics and Immortality" and "Physics and Christianity", joins us to discuss the Omega Point. The Omega Point, a term first coined by Catholic priest and scientist Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, is a theory developed by Tipler that explains how humans might survive through the heat death of the universe. Taking quantum mechanics, general relativity, and thermodynamics as assumptions, Dr. Tipler shows that the Omega Point is a predestined necessity that points to a Triune God.

Christian Futurism: An Introduction To Teilhard de Chardin

On episode #41 of the Crypto Conversion Podcast we invite constitutional lawyer and independent researcher Ian Huyett on to discuss the controversial theories of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. Teilhard is a censured priest and theologian in the Catholic church who theorized on the end of the universe and introduced the concept of the Omega point. In this episode, we talk the heat death of the universe, Christian Futurism, the Silicon Valley religion, and the place of AI, Crypto, and other emerging technologies in the Church. Also, can Christians trust emerging tech leaders such as Elon Musk, Sam Altman, and Vitalik Buterin? We discuss! (Note, mentions of Vatican I in this podcast were unintentional misspeaks. The only council in question is Vatican II).
