Episode 121: This week, Kyle Van Pelt talks with Mark Buffington, CEO at BIP Capital and Managing Partner at BIP Ventures. Since founding BIP Capital, Mark has helped shape the firm into one of the most active and respected investment brands outside Silicon Valley. He's also spearheaded several of its most forward-thinking initiatives, from a private-equity Evergreen BDC to a proprietary deep-data AI platform and a Performance Engineering framework built to create category-leading companies and deliver premium exits. Mark and Kyle explore what it takes to build a wealth advisory practice that blends growth, service, and innovation. Mark explains the regulatory and educational hurdles that have historically kept most individuals at arm's length from the innovation economy—and the unconventional solution BIP created to bridge that gap. He also breaks down how BIP adapted “performance engineering” principles from its tech portfolio to transform business culture and fuel record-breaking growth in the wealth management space. In this episode: (00:00) - Intro (02:30) - Mark's money moment (08:50) - Why individuals struggle to access private markets (15:08) - How BIP connects investors to alternative and private market opportunities (23:32) - Bringing “performance engineering” into BIP's business strategy (27:46) - The challenge of building a sales culture on top of a service culture (31:43) - The internal and external tech stack powering BIP's growth (37:15) - Mark's outlook on the future of financial services (43:16) - Mark's Milemarker minute Key Takeaways A sales culture can enhance—not replace—service excellence. A strong service-driven culture doesn't conflict with growth. When layered thoughtfully, a disciplined sales and marketing process amplifies the value you deliver while expanding your firm's reach. The traditional advisory value proposition isn't enough. As the industry becomes more complex and competitive, simple asset allocation or basic planning won't consistently attract or retain clients. Advisors need differentiated value supported by expertise, technology, and innovation. Technology is a strategic advantage when you control it. Building or owning your tech and data enables better decisions, stronger efficiency, and a better client experience—especially as AI accelerates what's possible. Innovation removes structural barriers. Regulation, access limitations, and operational friction often hold back growth. Firms that find creative ways to overcome those barriers can separate themselves from competitors and unlock new opportunities. Quotes "The market shifted. Traditional advisors that provide basic asset allocation and some basic planning are not enough to win and keep business consistently." ~ Mark Buffington "In a world where advisors are increasingly under competitive pressure, how do we give them an advantage? Technologically, with AI and with private market products, and in ways that integrate with their workflows." ~ Mark Buffington "We are in the advice business, but we're also in the worry elimination business. The real value to individuals with complex lives, who are raising kids and trying to manage their own careers, is to take that worry and concern off their plates." ~ Mark Buffington Links  Mark Buffington on LinkedIn Bill Harris BIP Capital BIP Ventures BIP Wealth iCapital CAIS Charles Schwab Christy Johnson Andrew Somoza Hart Williford Tamarac | Envestnet Orion Advisor Solutions Envestnet | MoneyGuide eMoney Advisor Plaid Skin in the Game Connect with our hosts Milemarker.co Kyle on LinkedIn Jud on LinkedIn Subscribe and stay in touch Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube

Das Bruttoinlandsprodukt klingt erstmal richtig nach „Erwachsenen-Wirtschafts-Deutsch“, oder? Dabei steckt dahinter eigentlich eine ziemlich simple Idee: Das BIP zeigt, wie viel ein Land in einem Jahr so produziert und verkauft. Also alles – von der Pizza beim Italiener über neue Smartphones bis hin zum Friseurbesuch. Je höher das BIP, desto mehr geht wirtschaftlich ab. Und genau deshalb sprechen Politiker, Medien und sogar wir im Unterricht ständig darüber: Das BIP hilft uns zu checken, wie gut die Wirtschaft drauf ist und was das für unseren Alltag bedeutet. Euer Dozent Thomas G. Montag, Berlin.

Grab your drink and pull up a chair - it's another Bitcoin Roundtable with Simple Steve, Bitcoin Mechanic, and my brother Jeff Swann. This time we're diving into the chaos around soft forks, censorship, and the latest round of Bitcoin drama. We get into the weeds (and the memes) of BIP 444, Taproot fallout, node wars, and whether limiting data on-chain is smart security or overzealous gatekeeping. Between technical tangents, Halloween costumes, and a few “did that really happen?” moments, we bounce between philosophy and practicality... all while trying to figure out who exactly broke Bitcoin this time.

La posta è sempre alta: come scalare Bitcoin. Arkade delude parzialmente le aspettative e la ricerca continua.Inoltre: Christine Lagarde al mercato, il fork BIP-444 e tutte le sue assurdità, e il PlanP Forum di Lugano si conferma l'evento finance di riferimento.It's showtime!

Rob Hamilton breaks down BIP 444, the controversial soft fork proposal to limit OP_RETURN outputs and remove inscriptions. Legal pressure on mining pools, hashrate drama, and why this fork will likely fail. Rob Hamilton from AnchorWatch joins us to talk about the explosive BIP 444 proposal that could fork Bitcoin. We break down PortlandHodl's original 520-byte output limit idea, LukeDashjr's controversial technique to ban inscriptions, and the legal pressure being applied to mining pools. Rob explains why this fork will likely fail, what happens to your Bitcoin if it succeeds, and why opponents finally admitted a consensus change was needed all along. Subscribe to the newsletter! https://newsletter.blockspacemedia.com **Notes:** • BIP 444 limits outputs to 520 bytes max • OP_RETURN reduced from current to 84 bytes • F2Pool controls 12% hash rate, opposes fork • Mining pool switching costs nearly nothing • Fork creates 2 coins: pure vs unholy Bitcoin • Legal pressure applied to multiple pools Timestamps: 00:00 Start 01:55 Portland HODL's proposal 04:48 PR 444 (is dumb) 08:22 Author of the PR: Dathon Ohm 09:45 Knots & Ocean inner circle 10:45 LEGAL & MORAL authorities!

Sean Bowe is a cryptographer and engineer who is best known for revolutionizing Zcash. After cooperating to fix the inflation bug in the first version of the network, he built Halo to remove the trusted setup – basically obliterating the main reason why Bitcoin did not activate the Zerocash soft fork in 2013. More recently, Sean Bowe announced project Tachyon: an ambitious initiative to scale ZK SNARKs (the technology enabling shielded transactions) to billions of users.

In this episode, I host a deep dive on open-source Bitcoin mining hardware and network policy. We kick off with updates on the Ember One v5 hashboard design: a modern, smarter voltage regulator with digital telemetry and over-temp safeguards, header breakouts for optional fan-control daughterboards, and the tradeoff of dropping 24V input in favor of better performance up to 17V. We talk real-world cooling scenarios from hardwired desk fans to immersion, water blocks, and the dream of a fully passive, fanless space-heater miner, and how firmware can target room temperature using external thermostats or Home Assistant, including hashing on dummy work for heat when the network's down. We also cover system builds with S9 chassis reuse, USB hub scaling, and the open-source release on the 256 Foundation's GitHub.Then we zoom out to software and network sovereignty: IPv6 support work on Bitaxe and why testing the full chain (ISP to router to device) matters; the merits of self-hosting vs cloud IoT, dynamic DNS, and why more economic nodes will matter as home mining grows. We wade into Bitcoin Core vs Knots relay/mempool policy drama, argue for keeping “the knobs” and user choice, and explore a BIP proposing a scriptable mempool policy. Finally, we unpack copyleft vs MIT licensing for hardware and software, what “preferred format for modification” means for open hardware (use real CAD source, e.g., KiCad), how legal enforcement has played out (Cisco/Linux precedent), and why open-source accelerates development, decentralizes control, and creates durable ecosystems using Bitaxe's rapid growth as a case study.

Simon and Dan return with the second half of their deep dive into 50 Ways to Invest in the AI Revolution. While Part 1 covered the obvious giants—semiconductors, hyperscalers, pure-play AI software, enterprise apps, and data center REITs—this episode looks at some of the less obvious but equally important beneficiaries of AI. From utilities and grid infrastructure to commodities like uranium, copper, and natural gas, they explore the backbone powering AI’s massive energy demand. They also dig into healthcare, cybersecurity, IT consulting, and industrial automation—sectors where AI is already improving efficiency, margins, and innovation in ways most investors overlook. Once again, they highlight dozens of companies and ETFs across these subsectors, balancing both the opportunities and the risks. If you’re wondering how to get diversified AI exposure beyond the usual suspects like NVDA and MSFT, this episode is packed with fresh angles and ticker ideas. Tickers discussed: Utilities & infrastructure: NEE, CNP, D, CPX.TO, BEPC, BIP.UN.TO, PWR, MTZ, SU, ENB Commodities & energy: TECK.B.TO, TOU.TO, URA, U.UN.TO, UNG, ZEO.TO, BCIM Healthcare: GEHC, SMMNY, PFE, ISRG, WELL.TO, ZHQ.TO Cybersecurity: CRWD, PANW, HAK, CYBR.TOConsulting & IT services: ACN, IBM, INFY Industrial automation: ROK, ABB, PNG.V Check out our portfolio by going to Jointci.com Our Website Our New Youtube Channel!

We expose controversial Bitcoin developer Luke Dash Jr, his extreme religious and political views, geocentric beliefs, and how his Bitcoin Knots client reflects his authoritarian ideology while claiming to save Bitcoin. Today we dive deep into the controversial world of Luke Dash Jr, the Bitcoin developer behind Bitcoin Knots who believes the sun orbits the Earth, supports monarchy over democracy, follows an obscure Catholic sect with only 30,000 followers worldwide, and thinks using Bitcoin in ways he disapproves of should be criminal. We expose his authoritarian development practices and why Bitcoiners should know exactly who they're endorsing. Subscribe to the newsletter! https://newsletter.blockspacemedia.com Notes: • Luke's sect has only 30,000 followers vs 1.4B Catholics • Luke was sole BIP editor for a while • Bitcoin Knots filters some lighting & coinjoins • Luke believes violating laws equals immoral behavior • “GitHub doesn't work with Knots” claims disputed Timestamps: 00:00 Start 00:32 Geocentrism is back baby! 06:26 Why Luke is a Bitcoin legend 09:12 UASF 13:52 Knots 16:52 ONE maintainer to rule them ALL 23:06 Luke merge unreviewed code, sounds safe.. 24:34 BIPs repo 28:30 Knots has more maintainers? ahh, what? 35:12 Obscure religious sect -

This week kicks off with a PSA, YFT'ers: don't drink espresso martinis if you want to sleep. Wells learned the hard way, so you don't have to. Fresh off zero rest and a Disneyland trip, he's got thoughts on croc charms, Mickey ears, and why the duck pond is way more fun with a gummy or two. Meanwhile, Brandi's up to four dogs at home (thanks, Matt), and wondering how many more she can handle. The BIP reunion pod Wells hosted was high on chaos, low on tea, and has us asking: is it time for a Bachelor reboot with someone totally new? Rounding things out are fave things galore — from Netflix thrillers to Hallmark horse romances to Carrie Bradshaw maybe never learning a thing. Buckle up, we love ya!
