Who is Guy Swann?

Guy Swann's journey into Bitcoin began in 2011, and he has been captivated by its economic experiment and technological implications ever since. With a bachelor's degree in film production from UNC Wilmington and professional experience in networking and system administration, Swann brought a unique combination of media production skills and technical understanding to Bitcoin education.

In 2017, Swann launched Bitcoin Audible with a simple but powerful premise: the best Bitcoin writing deserves to be heard, not just read. He began narrating the most important Bitcoin articles, essays, and papers, transforming dense written material into immersive audio experiences. The concept resonated immediately. Forbes Magazine recognized Bitcoin Audible as one of the top crypto podcasts in 2020.

With over 1,300 episodes and millions of downloads, Bitcoin Audible has become the largest audio library of Bitcoin literature in existence. Swann covers everything from the economics and history of money to game theory, network effects, decentralization, and the philosophy of liberty. His narrations make complex ideas accessible to people who learn better by listening than by reading, which turns out to be a lot of people.

Swann's self-description says it all: he is the person who has read more about Bitcoin than anyone you know. That's not arrogance. It's a statement of dedication. Thousands of hours spent reading across disciplines have made him one of the most well-rounded Bitcoin thinkers in the space. Beyond the podcast, Swann serves as an advisor at Swan Bitcoin and is building peer-to-peer tools through Peardrive, working to maintain an open, sovereign internet.

I have read more about Bitcoin than anyone else you know. And I narrate it so you don't have to.
