Live from the Bitcoin Conference in Las Vegas, RugPull Radio host GMoney sits down with special guest Ryan Matta for a firestorm of truth, tech, and tyranny. The episode opens with a bombshell: Badlands Media has officially added Bitcoin to its strategic reserves, rejecting fiat dependency to assert financial sovereignty. Matta shares his personal evolution, from Bitcoin YouTuber to whistleblower journalist, exposing government-backed child trafficking networks and the cover-ups that surround them. The conversation dives into the transformative story of El Salvador under President Nayib Bukele, the weaponization of Bitcoin to dismantle MS-13, and the global stakes in what Matta calls a peaceful Digital 1776 revolution. They explore Bitcoin's role in empowering grassroots humanitarian efforts like El Salvador's House of Life, the moral cost of fiat, and the strategic shift in Trumpworld toward Bitcoin maximalism. From geopolitics and media corruption to the future of church finances and disaster relief through sats and geo-zapping, this episode doesn't just connect the dots, it draws the entire map. With explosive insights on how to opt out of clown world and build a sovereign parallel economy, this one's pure orange-pilled fire.

In this special edition of RugPull Radio, GMoney welcomes Sean Hagan, Head of Media at Bitcoin Magazine, for a powerhouse conversation bridging the Bitcoin movement, American sovereignty, and the upcoming celebration of America's 250th birthday. Broadcasting from the front lines of the monetary revolution, Sean gives listeners an inside look at what to expect from this year's massive Bitcoin Conference in Las Vegasi, ncluding keynote speakers, all-night afterparties, and the first public appearance of Ross Ulbricht since his historic pardon. They dive into Sean's philosophical roots, his orange-pilled journey, and how he went from Robinhood investor to full-time Bitcoiner. The pair unpack the meme magic of Rare Pepes, the mythology of Buckazoids, and the deeper cultural movement driving Bitcoin's rise as the foundation of a new digital Constitution. They also explore tokenization, the future of lightning integration with stablecoins like Tether, and why Bitcoin's strategy is flipping Wall Street, politics, and even the presidency on its head. As talk of space-time manipulation and code-based governance swirls, one thing is clear, Bitcoin isn't just a currency; it's the backbone of a peaceful revolution. Vegas won't know what hit it. Use code PEPE.

America is $34 trillion in debt—but a radical new idea called BitBonds could change everything.

PLUS, we go backstage with Alex McShane, former Director of Programming at the Bitcoin Conference, at Bitcoin MENA 2024 for his take on sovereign and institutional Bitcoin adoption trends.Watch Bitcoin Magazine's exclusive interview with Andrew Hohns for more: https://youtu.be/KdcCTesi808Connect with Isabella Santos on X: https://x.com/isabellasg3

This episode is a recording of an X Space I had the pleasure of hosting on March 24th. It features a compelling debate between Kevin Brent Cook and Grain of Salt on Josh Mandell's precise and publicly stated prediction that Bitcoin would hit $84,000 on Pi Day, March 14th. Kevin argues that many are being fooled by randomness. Grain believes Josh is simply an elite trader — and maybe even tapped into something unconventional. Memories, multiverses, time loops?
