On his highly acclaimed show, The JRE podcast, Rogan proposed an interesting scenario; He said, “Imagine if Bitcoin becomes the only money worth anything. And then everybody is like, ‘but I don’t have any of it.’ Your money is not worth sh**. You gotta get new money. You gotta get money in Bitcoin.”

Rogan also acknowledged, “There’s only a certain amount of Bitcoin, right? The Bitcoin number is finite. So maybe there is no bitcoin for you. What the f*** are you talking about? That’s what’s gonna happen.”

Former multi-promotion world champion mixed martial artist, Ben Askren, reacted to a clip with Joe Rogan’s comments and posted his thoughts on Twitter with a Matrix reference.

“Wait, did Joe just get orange pilled,” wrote Askren.

Apparently, Askren is a big name in advocating cryptocurrency in the MMA/UFC space. Likewise, he never misses an opportunity in talking about it, whether it be his own podcast or some other.
