Summary: Patrick is back from Europe and has been recovering from a throat infection. On today's show we talk about the recent price movement. We speculate on what has caused the recent volatility, including the United States Marshal Service announcement that they will be auctioning off some of the bitcoins recovered from Silk Road. We'll explore the recent uproar regarding possible 51% attacks. In a first-ever interview, Patrick talks to Ryan Selkis, the "Two-Bit Idiot", known for his controversial blog that released the leaked Mt. Gox crisis documents earlier this year. There has been a lot of news over the past couple of weeks, including some major new players that began accepting bitcoin and a reversal of policy by Apple. Patrick also interviews a small business in Amsterdam to find out why the owner is so excited for the future of his business.
