Submit ReviewNate Silver is a statistician, writer, and political analyst, widely recognized for his accurate predictions of U.S. presidential elections. He's now released an exceptional new book titled, "On the Edge: The Art of Risking Everything." The book delves into the world of risk, game theory, cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, and poker—fields where the stakes are high and the outcomes uncertain. One of the central themes of the book is crypto, which is why we were thrilled to have Nate join us.
Nate is not just a respected analyst; he's one of us—a fellow degen who shares our passion for the unpredictable and the frontier. But he's also much more. Nate is an avid poker player, a sharp sports bettor, an interviewer of Sam Bankman-Fried, an NFT enthusiast, and an advisor to Polymarket. In today’s episode, he offers keen insights into the brewing battle between the crypto world and its traditional incumbents.
