Podcasts about Bitcoin

On this episode of CoinDesk's Public Keys from the New York Stock Exchange, Jennifer Sanasie is joined by Charles Schwab Head of Crypto Research Jim Ferraioli, who breaks down the odds of a Fed hike, why he believes the CLARITY Act is not yet priced into Bitcoin, and his finding that some 60% of Bitcoin's daily price move can't be tied to macro factors. Galaxy Head of Firmwide Research Alex Thorn unpacks the newly launched $15 million Bitcoin Security Consortium — backed by nine firms including BlackRock, Coinbase, Fidelity, Galaxy, and Strategy — and Galaxy's own $5 million Bitcoin Quantum Readiness Initiative, while making the case that CLARITY is in its "11th hour" ahead of the August recess. Finally, FalconX Head of Derivatives Griffin Sears kicks off CoinDesk's Perps Week, explaining how perpetual futures jumped from crypto into oil, single-name equities, and pre-IPO SpaceX exposure. Plus, a look at ETF flows and a Crypto Fear & Greed reading stuck at 30. - Learn more at https://www.bullish.com/. - Register now for CoinDesk's Policy and Regulation event on September 24, 2026: https://policy-regulation.coindesk.com/. - To get market moving news delivered daily, download CoinDesk's mobile app: https://linktr.ee/coindeskapp. - Timecodes: 00:00 Welcome to Public Keys 00:23 Charles Schwab's Jim Ferraioli Joins 00:40 Fed Hike Odds and What to Watch This Week 02:16 Why the CLARITY Act Isn't Priced Into Bitcoin 04:35 60% of Bitcoin's Price Move Is Unexplained 06:30 Ether ETFs Outperform Bitcoin 07:56 What's Really Driving Ethereum's Flows 09:33 Bitcoin's Year-End Outlook and $95K Fair Value 12:02 $15M Bitcoin Security Consortium Launches 12:29 Galaxy's Alex Thorn on Quantum Readiness 16:33 Is $15M Enough to Secure Bitcoin? 19:07 The CLARITY Act at the 11th Hour 21:15 Bitcoin and Ether ETF Flows Diverge 23:05 FalconX's Griffin Sears Kicks Off Perps Week 25:55 Perps Move Into TradFi and Pre-IPO Bets 28:46 What's Still Holding Perps Back 30:15 Crypto Fear & Greed Stuck at 30

A major discrepancy comes to light in the disappearance of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie. A newly revealed version of the ransom note includes a final warning omitted from earlier reporting: "Her life is in your hands." As local authorities and the FBI continue searching for answers, mystery surrounds the $4 million Bitcoin demand and the unauthenticated notes claiming Guthrie died shortly after her abduction.

On the same day in July, three FBI sources gave the public three irreconcilable answers about the ransom notes in the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping. Reuters was told every note is fake. The Phoenix field office indicated that some may be legitimate. TMZ's sources said the original two are more credible than not.That is three positions from inside one agency about the most consequential evidence in an active kidnapping investigation that has produced zero arrests in nearly six months.Nancy Guthrie disappeared from her Tucson home in January. A masked figure was captured on her Ring camera. Former FBI agent Steve Moore publicly declared the case is cold, telling Brian Entin that fresh investigators will eventually cycle in because the current team has gone as far as it can with its approach.The cons have made it worse. Derrick Callella pleaded guilty to posing as a kidnapper and reaching out directly to the family with fake ransom messages. Someone else sent TMZ twelve emails demanding Bitcoin. The investigation has had to devote significant resources just to separating real evidence from manufactured noise.The enhanced photo of the masked figure captured on Nancy's porch camera has never been released to the public. Nancy's face is on the billboards. The suspect's is not. These are choices, and no one has explained the reasoning behind them.If the FBI has results from those five months of genetic genealogy testing, the public has not been told. If they do not have results after five months on a DNA sample in a kidnapping case, the investigation is producing questions faster than it is producing answers.Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer has publicly challenged investigators on ten specific points, including the unreleased porch image and the question of whether the Bureau already knows who porch guy is. DNA recovered from Nancy's home went to a genetic genealogy lab in February. Five months and no word.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Three different FBI sources. Three different answers. On the same day. About the single most important piece of evidence in the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping.Reuters said all the ransom notes are fabricated. The Phoenix field office said some may be legitimate. TMZ's sources said the original two are more credible than not. The Bureau cannot agree internally on whether the central evidence in its own active case is real or manufactured.Nancy Guthrie has been missing from her Tucson home for nearly six months. No suspect identified. No arrest. Former FBI agent Steve Moore went on camera and said what no official source has admitted. The case is completely cold. He told Brian Entin that fresh agents will eventually rotate in because the current investigators are stuck.This case has attracted cons alongside its genuine investigation. Derrick Callella pleaded guilty to posing as a kidnapper and sending fake ransom messages directly to Nancy's family while the real kidnapping was still open. Someone else separately sent TMZ a dozen emails demanding Bitcoin for information. The resources devoted to sorting real leads from manufactured noise have been enormous.Genetic genealogy testing began in February using DNA recovered from inside the house. That was five months ago. The enhanced photo of the masked figure on Nancy's porch has never been publicly released.Nancy's face is on the billboards across Tucson. The suspect's is not. The enhanced photo of the masked figure was captured on her porch camera. It has never been made public. These are deliberate decisions by the people running this investigation, and no one has explained the logic behind any of them.Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins Hidden Killers to examine the Bureau's contradictions, what happens mechanically when a case goes cold, whether the genetic genealogy testing has produced results that have not been shared, and whether investigators already know more about porch guy than they have told the public.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

AI can crunch a portfolio, harvest losses, and explain an investment concept in seconds. But can it stop a nervous investor from selling at exactly the wrong moment—or understand the life behind the spreadsheet?Tom and Don test the robot-advisor promise, even asking ChatGPT to weigh in. The verdict is a useful division of labor: let technology handle repeatable mechanics, while human judgment, fiduciary responsibility, and behavior coaching remain hard to automate.Then the questions get wonderfully strange: whether a 0.70% advisory fee earns its keep, how a concentrated tech fund hides risk behind a huge return, whether a $100 million Bitcoin Roth story adds up, and how to invest an inherited account.00:00 Are AI advisors coming for financial planners?03:06 ChatGPT offers its own cautious verdict04:14 Where automation helps—and where humans matter09:36 What investors should ask their advisory firms12:10 Is a 0.70% advisor fee earning its keep?16:50 The concentrated tech fund with a dazzling record21:12 A purported $100 million Bitcoin Roth25:22 Building an inherited-account portfolioQuestions?

Fred runs MARA (formerly Marathon Digital Holdings), one of the biggest public Bitcoin miners in the world. We get into why so many miners are pivoting to AI, what it means for Bitcoin, and his honest, big-picture read on where Bitcoin fits as an asset — including why he says power, not chips, has become the most valuable resource in tech, and why that puts some miners in a surprisingly strong position.

He's still offering three Bitcoin, worth around $300K, to anyone who can prove him wrong. If you watched the first episode, you already know this one goes even further. If you didn't, this is the conversation that will make you question everything you thought you knew.

Philosopher Stefan Molyneux explains why we fear guilt and shame in this listener questions episode by showing how failed relationships usually come from self-deception where physical attraction blinds people to bad character. He advocates getting honest about red flags and choosing partners based on long-term parenting potential instead of short-term desire.GET FREEDOMAIN MERCH! https://shop.freedomain.com/SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/FREEDOMAIN2026

Philosopher Stefan Molyneux considers what advice he'd give to his 10-year-old self in this listener questions episode. In other questions, he rejects spanking as pointless violence that fails to prepare kids for adult consequences like social avoidance or lost opportunities. He advocates for choosing reason over superstition and force so children grow up honest and capable instead of broken by the old patterns.GET FREEDOMAIN MERCH! https://shop.freedomain.com/SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/FREEDOMAIN2026

Patrick Bet-David presses an economist who predicts the AI boom will collapse within two years, wiping out data-center investors and leaving workers without income. He warns robots could create a Hunger Games economy, then admits passing on Bitcoin cost him a shot at becoming a billionaire forever.

Conner Brown from the Bitcoin Policy Institute joins to break down AI and Bitcoin policy moving through Washington. We cover Taiwan's legislative push for Bitcoin reserves, foreign influence campaigns targeting American data centers, and why open source AI matters for crypto adoption. Plus: how AI agents are already choosing Bitcoin, the real story behind company brains and LLM workflows, and the fight to keep DC from regulating innovation out of existence.

Lyn Alden warns that BIP 110 is unlikely to curb spam and instead mostly rearranges non-monetary data, raising the risk of a minority fork attempt that could split the Bitcoin chain.Lyn Alden is a leading macro analyst and Bitcoiner who examines how fiscal dominance now overrides traditional monetary policy tools.She breaks down why high debt-to-GDP ratios prevent rate hikes from taming inflation, how broad money supply still expands 5-8 percent annually, the limits of semiconductor and AI valuations, and the structure of a new Bitcoin-backed permanent capital vehicle for acquiring cash-flowing businesses.Timestamps:02:14 — BIP 110 Won't Stop Spam04:56 — Bitcoin Faces August Chain Split Risk12:12 — Bitcoin in Bottom Decile of Cycle15:37 — Nothing Stops This Fiscal Train18:04 — Why Volcker Can't Work Today22:02 — Higher Rates Won't Break the System24:44 — Net Issuance Matters, Not Gross Refi27:34 — Fed Balance Sheet Stays Flattish32:56 — Broad Money Grows Despite Flat Fed36:05 — US Money Supply Growth Hits 5-8%38:51 — Fiscal Dominance: Who Wins the Money?41:50 — Why Semiconductors Print Money45:13 — Software Stocks: Value Trap or Opportunity?47:31 — AI Is the New Dot-Com Bubble52:00 — Orange Juice: Bitcoin-Backed Business Buyer57:57 — Permanent Capital Vehicle, Not a Fund59:39 — Founders Keep Equity Upside After SaleLinks:  X: https://x.com/LynAldenContactWebsite: https://www.lynalden.com/0BIP 110 debate ("motte-and-bailey" critique): https://x.com/LynAldenContact/status/2078599151043162159 Stephan Livera links:Follow me on X: @stephanliveraSubscribe to the podcastSubscribe to Substack

A quarter in the piggy bank has grown into a maze of UTMAs, 529s, custodial Roth IRAs, and the new child investment accounts. Tom and Don sort the options by what the money is actually for—and who keeps control.The 529 emerges as the flexible favorite, especially with its education uses and limited Roth rollover. Then the conversation turns to concentrated factor ETFs, the familiar Bitcoin argument, and whether private markets are really swallowing public investing.The through-line is refreshingly simple: match the account to the goal, favor broad diversification, and resist stories that make investing sound more complicated than it needs to be.00:00 Pshaw, Wordle, and the kid-money maze03:00 UTMAs and UGMAs: control has an expiration date05:34 Why 529 plans remain the flexible favorite09:01 Custodial Roth IRAs and an enormous head start11:15 New child accounts versus the 52916:02 MOAT and COWZ: clever ticker, concentrated portfolio20:48 Bitcoin, volatility, and the meaning of value26:51 Public markets versus the private-market storyQuestions?

Can blockchain do more than make rich people argue on the internet? In this episode of The Liquid Lunch Project, Matt and Luigi sit down with Erai Beckmann, founder of Peace Through Trade, to talk about a much bigger use case for blockchain, AI, and cryptocurrency: global trade that creates trust, financial access, and maybe even less fighting between humans. Wild concept, apparently. Erai breaks down why trade has historically been one of the strongest tools for reducing conflict, how blockchain can open doors for people left out of traditional finance, and why Peace Through Trade is building a legal, sustainable Layer-1 Proof-of-Work blockchain with real-world use in mind.  The conversation covers regulation, energy use, stablecoins, government trust, environmental impact, and the giant gap between hype coins and technology built to last.  

On episode 232 of Ask The Compound, Ben Carlson is joined by Jurrien Timmer to discuss: whether the Magnificent 7's recent underperformance is a healthy sign of broader market leadership, why concentration risk and higher interest rates remain key risks for investors, how long the current earnings boom can continue, where speculative capital could flow next after Bitcoin, gold, and semiconductor stocks, and how to stay invested during a bull market while protecting against the risk of an eventual bubble. Plus, Jurrien shares insights from his Weekly Asset Allocation Review and explains why a barbell approach to AI and value investing could make sense in today's market.

In January 1981, American hostages were released from Iran within hours of Reagan's inauguration. Forty-five years later — to within 30 hours — Andrew Pancholi told his subscribers an Iran conflict was about to begin. He was right. This is not luck. It's mathematics — and in this conversation with Dwayne Kerrigan, Andrew breaks down exactly how cycle analysis works, what it's telling us about real estate, geopolitics, and the global economy right now, and what business owners and investors should be doing with that information.In Part 1 of this episode: The 18.6-year real estate cycle: why we are currently at the same position in the cycle as 2007 — just before the Global Financial Crisis — and what the smart money did last time, and what to do nowThe 100-year pandemic cycle — how Spanish flu, cholera, and COVID all followed the same pattern, and why Andrew saw COVID comingThe 90-year geopolitical cycle: how the polarization, rise of nationalism, anti-immigration sentiment, and challenges to global order we're seeing now mirror the 1930s decade almost exactly — including the economic conditions that led to the rise of fascismThe 250-year empire cycle — America at a tipping point, the petrodollar's quiet expiry, and China's strategic expansion while the West was distractedWhy Andrew predicted the Israel-Iran conflict to within 30 hours — the convergence of a 45-year cycle, a 90-year cycle, and a 36-year cycle, and why Netanyahu's personal history from the 1976 Entebbe raid has driven his policy decisions in Gaza and LebanonThe AI boom through the lens of cycles — why every major boom is fueled by new technology, and whether the return on investment can justify what's going in.Note: This conversation is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.

That's the way I've always been trained and always looked at it, is that it is gonna give you what the psychology of the world is looking at things from a economic standpoint.” - Dwayne Kerrigan“ If you don't have to buy, keep saving, 'cause the chances are the house prices will come down, and then when we get to about 2031, 2032, that might be a good time to start looking.” - Andrew Pancholi“ Religious texts, philosophical texts, they all hide mathematical patterns within them. There is something secret hidden away. I mean, it's an open secret if you go and study it, but there are some patterns and years, certain mathematical patterns that do repeat in the bigger picture.” - Andrew Pancholi“ I put the, uh, message out on the Thursday evening to our subscribers saying, "This is gonna kick off, uh, I believe on tomorrow or, or Saturday," and it actually happened on Saturday. So depending on where you are in the world, it was maximum 30 hours out.” - Andrew PancholiAndrew Pancholi is the founder and CEO of The Market Timing Report, a global macro research service used by professional investors, portfolio managers, and family offices to identify risk windows and periods of asymmetric opportunity.

Lyn Alden raised $40M to launch Orange Juice, a holding company that buys cash-flowing businesses and layers Bitcoin on top, not another pure-play treasury bet. ======================================================== Thank you to our sponsor! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cape⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: Your biggest crypto vulnerability isn't your wallet, it's your phone number.

Rather than build another pure-play Bitcoin treasury stock, Orange Juice buys cash-flowing, unglamorous businesses and layers a Bitcoin treasury on top at the parent-company level. Lyn Alden, cofounder of Orange Juice and a partner at Ego Death Capital, frames it as a countercyclical alternative to procyclical treasury companies, and she does not spare Strategy from criticism. She compares Orange Juice's structure to Berkshire Hathaway and argues Strategy let its dollar reserve fall too far, weighing in as Laura invokes Michael Saylor's 'sell a kidney' line and STRC's slide to near $85 against its $100 target. She also addresses BIP-110's inscription debate and Bitcoin's quantum computing threat, questioning whether the community's resistance to change is a strength or a liability.

Chasing performance feels like the easiest way to make money—but buying what has already gone up often means arriving late and leaving with less.In this episode of Talking Real Money, Tom and Don examine the “behavior gap”: the difference between an investment's return and what investors actually earn after buying high, selling low, and chasing the latest market story. They explain why disciplined diversification and a sensible asset allocation usually beat a portfolio built around hot ideas.They also answer listener questions about retirement withdrawal order, Roth conversions, reinsurance funds, high investment costs, and whether financial recommendations are influenced by commissions.00:20 Why buying what's hot usually means arriving late01:42 Chasing performance without ever catching it03:03 How Bitcoin rose while Bitcoin ETF investors lost money04:58 The costly confusion between “has gone up” and “is going up”05:53 Morningstar's “Mind the Gap” research06:44 AI, chips, and the latest performance-chasing cycle07:37 Asset allocation versus a collection of hot ideas09:21 Why trying to beat the market often backfires10:16 Listener Question: Retirement accounts and withdrawal order12:29 Taxable, pre-tax, or Roth—which money should come first?15:35 Listener Question: Do reinsurance funds belong in a portfolio?16:58 Catastrophe risk, complexity, and nearly 2% in expenses21:33 Listener Question: Are fund recommendations influenced by compensation?23:27 Why “trust us” isn't a convincing financial argumentQuestions?

Crypto News: Bitcoin crosses $65,000 and altcoins are following with the charts looking bullish. The White House has agreed on an ethics package for the Clarity Act. Patrick Witt will stay with the Trump administration to see the Clarity Act passing.

Bitcoin moved back above $66,000 as U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded a fifth straight day of inflows, bringing roughly $727 million into the market over that stretch. The episode also covers renewed momentum around the CLARITY Act, rapid growth in tokenized assets on Solana, a UK inquiry into crypto banking restrictions, Washington state's legal fight with Kalshi, and Base's planned launch of tokenized equities. Matt also discusses an SEC case involving an alleged $22 million mining scheme, the latest Celsius settlement, Exodus cutting 25% of its workforce, and Bitcoin miners shifting computing power toward AI infrastructure. He explains why miners reallocating compute is a normal part of the crypto cycle, then closes with his skepticism about Litecoin's long-term upside despite its recent breakout.

They dig into the AI capital markets: Anthropic and DeepSeek's IPO plans, Nous Research's $75 million raise at a $1.5 billion valuation, Gavin Baker's intelligence-per-dollar thesis, Liquid AI, and OpenShip's self-hostable app platform. The guys run through the payments story: the $53 billion Stripe, Advent, and Block bid for PayPal, Visa's new OUSD stablecoin platform, and Amazon Japan's move into a yen-backed stablecoin. They cover a stack of digital asset headlines: IBIT options limits rising to 1 million contracts, Citadel's $400 million investment in Crypto.com at a $20 billion valuation, the ECB's digital euro pilot, Velocity's $38 million Series A, Tether's Genius Act countdown, and Lynn Alden's new Bitcoin-focused PE firm.

Marty's back on the shore house porch just as the Middle East flares up again. Marty and John dig into WTI and Brent back in the 80s, the SPR hitting 43 days, and why GCC countries are racing to bypass the Strait of Hormuz. They also get into the US as a helium winner, the Fed trying to have it both ways on forward guidance and inflation, and why Kimi K3 is exposing the strategic risk of nerfed frontier models. They also touch on Jevons Paradox in AI inference, whether sovereigns will end up backstopping training spend, and Bitcoin hovering around 64k with the strategic reserve bill finally hitting committee.

On this episode of CoinDesk's Public Keys from the New York Stock Exchange, Jennifer Sanasie is joined by Ben Emons, Founder and Chief Investment Officer of FedWatch Advisors, to break down the market fallout from Moonshot AI's Kimi K3 and why the Fed is now actively debating rate hikes rather than cuts ahead of the August 7th CLARITY Act deadline. Nadine Chakar, Managing Director and Global Head of Digital Assets at DTCC, explains how the firm moved tokenized securities into live production and outlines DTCC's role as an institutional multi-chain orchestrator ahead of a full commercial launch. The conversation turns to ETF flows, where Bitcoin funds finished last week with $76 million in net inflows despite a $425 million outflow on Monday alone, and Ethereum ETFs outpaced Bitcoin inflows led by $135 million into BlackRock's ETHA. Finally, Bilal Little, Global ETF Strategist at Direxion, unpacks the debut of BTCU and EVMU — the industry's first 2x leveraged spot Bitcoin and Ether ETFs — explains why an ETF wrapper beats margin on a crypto exchange for retail traders, and responds to Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas's thesis that Bitcoin ETFs will mirror gold's 22-year "triumph and pain" trajectory.

What a fake guru discovered about genuine connection, why ancient wisdom survives even the most rigorous skepticism, and the real reason humans crave spiritual authority. Vikram Gandhi is an award-winning and boundary-pushing director of fiction and non-fiction film and television. Vikram most recently co-directed The Man Will Burn — a five-part HBO Original Documentary Series on the full arc of Burning Man, from its countercultural roots in San Francisco to the 80,000-person desert event it's become. In this episode we talk about: Why an experiment built to reject capitalism ended up swimming in it What playing a fake guru taught him about how belief actually works Why people are often more comfortable opening up to a stranger than to those closest to them What religion, cryptocurrency, and Burning Man all have in common How to find meaning in ancient wisdom without needing to belong to anything And much more Get the 10% with Dan Harris app here Sign up for Dan's free newsletter here Follow Dan on social: Instagram, TikTok Subscribe to our YouTube Channel To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/10HappierwithDanHarris This episode is sponsored by:  Jiyu Skin: Our listeners can now get an additional 20% off plus free shipping with our code HAPPIER at jiyuskin.com.
