Bitcoin payments, Lightning Network, and fast crypto payments are here. Learn about cryptocurrency payment processing and blockchain technology with Tedd Huff, CEO of Voalyre, and Voltage CEO Graham Krizek. This conversation cuts through the noise around Bitcoin's practical applications, digital currency, and modern financial solutions.The discussion reveals striking realities about payment processing that most people never consider. While traditional bank transfers take days and wire transfers take hours, Lightning Network transactions settle in under a second with complete finality. Graham shares how regulatory barriers are falling, with banks now able to hold cryptocurrency without special approval, and why businesses should default to Lightning for all Bitcoin transactions.Take Aways1️⃣ Switch to Lightning Payments2️⃣ Leverage New Banking Rules3️⃣ Avoid Infrastructure Building4️⃣ Target Global Markets5️⃣ Prepare for ConsolidationGet more @ Fintech Confidential.comSupportersDFNS delivers secure wallets as a service API-first, multi-chain by design across 50+ blockchains - https://fintechconfidential.com/dnfsSkyFlow provides zero trust data privacy vault API for collecting, securing, and tokenizing payment details - https://skyflowsecure.comUnder.io streamlines application and underwriting by digitizing PDFs for upload and digital signature - https://under.io/FTCHawk offers AI tools for real-time payment screening, ML transaction monitoring, and fraud prevention - https://gethawkai.comLinks:Graham KrizekLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/grahamkrizekTwitter/X: https://x.com/gkrizekNostr: graham@vlt.geVoltageWebsite: https://voltage.cloudLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/voltagecloud/X: https://x.com/voltage_cloudFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/voltagecloudYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@voltage_cloudNostr: Voltage@vlt.geFintech ConfidentialPodcast: https://fintechconfidential.com/listenNewsletter: https://fintechconfidential.com/accessLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/fintechconfidentialX: https://x.com/FTconfidentialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/fintechconfidentialFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/fintechconfidentialAbout:Graham Krizek is the Founder and CEO of Voltage.

Stephan & Matt discuss the ‘Save Our Wallets' campaign, which aims to protect non-custodial wallets from regulatory challenges posed by the U.S. government. He highlights the legal risks developers face due to broad interpretations of regulations and the potential consequences of future administrations. The importance of advocacy for legislative change, user engagement, and improving user experience in Bitcoin transactions are emphasized. Additionally, the conversation touches on the implications of AML and FATF regulations, the evolution of wallet technologies, and the need for research into Miner Extractable Value (MEV) in Bitcoin. They also discuss various aspects of Bitcoin and Ethereum, focusing on the implications of MEV (Miner Extractable Value), the risks of mining centralization, and the importance of investing in solutions rather than relying on consensus changes. They explore the challenges posed by private order flow, the philosophical differences in Bitcoin development, and the future of Bitcoin Core and node adoption.Takeaways

My guest today is Parker Lewis, the author of “Gradually Then Suddenly” and head of business development at Zaprite. A long-time fixture in the Bitcoin community, Parker is known for making complex monetary ideas accessible and for championing Bitcoin's role in restoring long-term thinking, personal responsibility, and economic sovereignty. Born and raised in Austin, Texas, Parker is a vocal advocate for the state's unique culture of freedom and its potential to lead the next chapter of Bitcoin adoption. In this episode, we explore why Texas attracts high-agency individuals and how its frontier history shaped Parker's views on liberty and resilience. We also dive into the debate around OP_RETURN, what it reveals about centralization risks in Bitcoin Core and mining, and why Parker believes a second implementation of Bitcoin software may be critical to preserving the network's decentralization. This is a conversation about the roots of sovereignty and the technical vigilance required to protect it.► If you got value, please like, comment, share, follow and support my work.

"People can use inscriptions today and they do use them.If on the one hand you believe that marginally raising the costs to unwanted usage of the chain is going to succeed in discouraging them, which, fair, we can discuss it. I disagree but we can discuss it. On the other hand, you cannot say that, oh well, making it four times four times more expensive is going to incentivize them to do more of it. They are not compatible arguments.So the OP_RETURN is not an invitation. It's not a signal to VCs or crypto or shitcoiners, because shitcoiners can already use the witness data today for four times less."~ Antoine Poinsot What happens when strong opinions collide in the name of Bitcoin's future? In this episode, I sit down with Bitcoin Core contributor Antoine Poinsot to explore one of the most heated and misunderstood technical debates in the space today — the controversy around OP_RETURN, spam filtering, and the deeper cultural divide over what Bitcoin should be.Antoine reached out after and wanted the chance to present his views on the OP_RETUN debate and respond to some of Bitcoin Mechanic's comments and criticisms from our Roundtable_009 episode. So I brought him on to make his case directly. We get into inscriptions, BitVM, node policy, mining centralization, and how to think clearly in a space full of noise and personal attacks. If you've felt lost in the drama, this is the calm, thoughtful signal you've been waiting for.

For years, Bitcoin was tamed — declawed, defanged, and made palatable to Wall Street and regulators. But behind the scenes, the code never forgot. Now, the great awakening is underway. The core devs are quietly reactivating the opcodes. BitVM, OP_CAT, and the Great Script Restoration aren't just technical upgrades — they're signals. Bitcoin is preparing… The post Deep Dive into the Future of BTC: Bitcoin Knots vs Bitcoin Core [VIDEO] appeared first on The Crypto Vigilante.

Jordan Bush, Ahshuwah Hawthorne, Tim Fox, and Jim McAndrew look at some of the latest news in Bitcoin through Christian eyes.

Bitcoin Core is in the spotlight again — and not in a good way. In this roundtable, Jeff Swann, Simple Steve, Bitcoin Mechanic, and I dig into the growing divide over mempool policies, the latest controversial pull request, and what it means for node sovereignty. Why is Core removing user configurability? Are we witnessing a philosophical shift away from Bitcoin's foundations? And more importantly — who's really in control of your node? This conversation is raw, fiery, and filled with high-level critique, speculation, and serious concerns about Bitcoin's future. If you've been hearing about “spam,” “filters,” and “dickbutts” on Bitcoin Twitter and want to know what the hell it's all about — this is the episode.  Guest Links Steve Simple Nostr (Link: https://tinyurl.com/3s6a8yn8) Steve Simple on X (Link: https://x.com/stevesimple) Bitcoin Mechanic Nostr (Link: https://tinyurl.com/2tm827ut) Bitcoin Mechanic on X (Link: https://x.com/GrassFedBitcoin) Jeff Swann Nostr (Link: https://tinyurl.com/3sjc3bcp) Jeff Swann on X (Link: https://x.com/agoristview) Host Links ⁠Guy on Nostr ⁠(Link: http://tinyurl.com/2xc96ney) ⁠Guy on X ⁠(Link: https://twitter.com/theguyswann) Guy on Instagram (Link: https://www.instagram.com/theguyswann) Guy on TikTok (Link: https://www.tiktok.com/@theguyswann) Guy on YouTube (Link: https://www.youtube.com/@theguyswann) ⁠Bitcoin Audible on X⁠ (Link: https://twitter.com/BitcoinAudible) The Guy Swann Network Broadcast Room on Keet (Link: https://tinyurl.com/3na6v839) Check out our awesome sponsors!

As part of the rollout, 7-Eleven will accept CBDC payments and offer a 10% discount on all products. Governments facing public skepticism regarding their CBDCs increasingly use similar incentive tactics to onboard users. For example, Nigeria discounts taxi fares to push its e-Naira CBDC, while Thailand is distributing its CBDC directly to citizens for free. While South Korea's CBDC project aims to modernize payments, it is part of a broader push from countries, even democratic ones, to integrate state-controlled digital currencies into everyday transactions. A move that is diametrically opposed to individuals' freedom, privacy, and human rights.
