Dan Held engages in discussions about cowboy attire, firearms, and cryptocurrency.

Bitcoin enthusiast Dan Held welcomed journalist Nicole Behnam to his hometown of Austin, Texas, as they discussed their respective journeys into the world of cryptocurrency. Held, a well-known figure in the Bitcoin community, introduced Behnam to the local Texan lifestyle by taking her to a gun range, where they had the opportunity to shoot a rare German MP40 from World War II. Behnam, embracing the Texan spirit, purchased her first cowboy hat and boots from a local store. The day concluded with a discussion on the growing interest in nonfungible tokens (NFTs) and Web3, and Held emphasized that while other blockchain platforms prioritize functionality over decentralization, Bitcoin remains resilient against potential attacks from nation-states.
