Rushkoff seems doubtful about Bitcoin, judging by some recent articles. I don't blame him, or anyone, for not holding on to hope when the people who are getting rich are going completely "Atlas Shrugged" about it and conferencing on remote islands.
When I think back on this interview, one of the things that comes to mind is the statement that family businesses (which tend to make everyone around them wealthy) out-perform corporations almost across the board, apart from boom cycles.
To connect those two thoughts, I would say that getting people like him on board is all about using the wealth and affluence afforded by holding Bitcoin to support one's local community and help pull others out of poverty.
