This episode is sponsored by Nexo.io, Arculus and FTX US.
On this edition of “Long Reads Sunday,” NLW reads two threads from Alex Gladstein that summarize big-think discussions on the history and future of money. The first is a summary of Luke Gromen’s appearance on “The Grant Williams Podcast.” The second is a discussion of Lyn Alden’s essay “What is Money.”
