This is not the first time the Texas comedian has expressed his bullish attitude towards cyber currencies. With an average of eleven million listeners per episode, the show is one of the most listened to podcasts in the world and is therefore very influential. Illustrious guests such as the Tesla boss Elon Musk or Mike Winkelmann, better known as record NFT artist Beeple, were already Rogan’s interlocutors.
BTC-ECHO quotes Rogan from a previous show in which he expressed his love for Bitcoin and immediately urged his listeners to invest in crypto: “Bitcoin is a transformative digital currency that works like a decentralized peer-to-peer payments network. It “It’s run by its users and has no central authority. I love it. I wish it was the way we exchange currencies and maybe it will be in the future. Come on board.”
On the other hand, the influential presenter viewed central bank digital currencies (CBDC) in previous programs as an attempt by state actors to leverage Bitcoin. Because the central banks would have been surprised by the competition for fiat currencies and feared for control. “They didn’t see it coming. And now they’re freaking out because it’s establishing itself as an alternative currency,” Rogan said, according to BTC-ECHO.
But self-confessed opponents of Bitcoin also had their say on Joe Rogan’s show. According to Cointelegraph, statements by author Peter Zeihan sparked violent reactions in the crypto community in early January. Zeihan had described the Cyberur motto there as a “burning dung heap”.
