Andreas Antonopoulos has long been one of the more well-respected names in the bitcoin and wider digital currency ecosystem.

Aside from winning the title of CoinDesk's 'Most Influential Person in Bitcoin' in 2015, Antonopoulos has served as a guiding voice for those in the bitcoin community and industry, holding positions at bitcoin startups such as Blockchain and CoinSimple.

In this video, I interview Antonopoulos about a range of subjects, from his new book Mastering Bitcoin to why he still thinks a hands-on approach is the best way to expand the digital currency's popularity.
