Hour 1
Roger Ver
Roger Ver has been a longtime proponent of voluntaryism, the idea that all human interactions should be by mutual consent, or not at all. He is most well-known for his work promoting Bitcoin. In 2011, his company, Memorydealers.com, became the first mainstream company to start accepting bitcoin as payment. He then went on to create Bitcoinstore.com, the first website in the world to accept bitcoin as payment for hundreds of thousands of items, and was the impetus for the future wave of merchant adoption. He also became the first person in the entire world to start investing in Bitcoin startups. Nearly singlehandedly, he funded the seed rounds for the entire first generation of Bitcoin businesses.
Some other notable actions were:
His $10,000 bitcoin bet:

His resulting $1M USD donation to the Foundation For Economic Education, fee.org
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orzhba2dV1A
His $160,000 donation to the defense of Ross Ulbricht, creator of the Silk Road
FreeRoss.org
His paying over $100,000 for national radio ads on more than a hundred stations across the USA advertising Bitcoin from 2011 to 2014
Multiple billboards advertising bitcoin in Silicon Valley, including the infamous, Honey Badger of Money design.
Giving away thousands of bitcoins all over the world, to anyone who would listen.
In his earlier life, he was most influenced by the works of Murray Rothbard, but was also inspired by the likes of Fredric Bastiat, Henry Hazlitt, Leonard Read, Frederick Hayek, Adam Smith, Milton Friedman, David Friedman, and many others in the Austrian school of economic thought.
More information on these types of ideas can be found at www.fee.org and www.mises.org
More recently he has been inspired by the works of Larken Rose, and Michael Huemer on philosophy regarding the legitimacy of government's right to exist at all.
I'm currently involved in numerous Bitcoin related projects. Bitcoin is the most important invention in the history of the world since the internet. If you don't already know about it, google it. Useful Bitcoin related links:

Here are my answers to the Five Questions you gave to Eddy:
Does it work?
BitShares has been operational for about three years and currently processes more peak transactions per day that Bitcoin and Ethereum combined.
How secure is it?
There are good arguments that it is far more secure than Bitcoin. For example, just three mining company CEOs sign more than 51% of Bitcoin's blocks and no one can take their hash power away from them if they misbehave. BitShares limits individual signers to 4% of the blocks and you must earn and maintain a strong reputation with bitshareholders to get that limited authority. Once burned, it is hard for someone to rebuild a reputation and ever sign a block again. Authority is strictly limited to witnessing transactions and misbehavior is instantly detected and weeded out. Total market cap of chains using this DPOS technology exceeds $1B and has been operating without security incident since inception in 2014.
How private is it?
By default, transactions are public. However stealth transactions are built-in and available. Current GUI support to access this is limited, but under development by a third party. It is easy to create anonymous accounts.
Low or no transaction fee?
Currently basic transfer fee is about 3 cents. On sister chains for Steemit and EOS transactions are free. BitShares will probably adopt free transfers when it upgrades to EOS technology next year.
Speed?
BitShares does all transactions in under 3 seconds. It routinely handles VISA levels of transactions (4000+ transactions per second) without moving the sweat-meter off zero. Lab tests show it is scalable to 100,000+ transactions per second on low-end hardware. With EOS parallelization technology next year it will be scalable to millions of transactions per second. Here is a recent comparison of BitShares Family (BitShares, Steem, Peerplays) with market cap leaders Bitcoin "classic", Ethereum, and Dash. Clearly, there is no comparison.
Bitcoin went through it's recent (and recurring) fork crisis with Bitcoin Segwit/Cash all to gain a mere 7 to 14 extra transactions per second while BitShares is routinely processing thousands per second with tens of thousands left over for growth.
And BitShares has stabilized assets that track the value of USD, CNY, EUR, Gold, Silver, Bitcoin, etc without counter party risk. The Hero, our flagship market pegged asset, is defined as "the value of the US Dollar since December 23, 1913 plus 5% APR" and offers ordinary savers stable growth at 5% APR against the dollar taxed as capital gains, not ordinary income. It is the antidote to Federal Reserve mismanagement.
And, BitShares implements an entire decentralized exchange on the blockchain trading hundreds of assets in real time without the counter party risk found in the centralized Mt. Goxes of this world.
