Big progress this week! In Episode 848 of The LOTS Project Morning Show, I share all the details from the post, truss, and roof install on the cabin—12 weeks in the making and it finally happened.I also break down what's really in the new Genius Act—and why it might be laying the rails for a programmable CBDC future. Lots of red flags buried under the promise of “clarity for crypto.”PLUS: I officially launch the Bitcoin Preparedness & Recovery Kit, a 17+ page printable system to help Bitcoiners document their wallets, seed phrases, recovery plans, and protect their sats if something unexpected happens.

Want to start stacking Bitcoin but don't want to buy a whole coin? In this episode of Bitcoin for Everyone, we break down three practical ways to get Bitcoin: working for it, mining it, or buying small amounts regularly. You'll learn how freelancers, creators, and everyday workers are getting paid in Bitcoin—and why there's always a Bitcoiner out there willing to exchange sats for your skills. We also share the story of Levi, who accepted £50 in Bitcoin that's now worth more than double, and explore tools like AcceptBitcoin.cash and BitcoinMap.org that make it easier to earn or accept BTC.We also dive into Bitcoin mining — is it still worth it in 2025? You'll hear a real comparison of mining vs. dollar-cost averaging, and which strategy quietly outperformed over four years. Finally, we explain how DCA (buying a small amount of Bitcoin regularly) removes emotion from investing and builds real long-term savings — even if you're starting with just £5 a week. Whether you're curious about free bitcoin mining, working for Bitcoin, or building a savings habit, this episode will help you take your first step.Get intouch with Myles at mylesdhillon@gmail.com

In this episode of SatSignal, I sit down with Michael Jordan — not the basketballer, but a former cybersecurity entrepreneur turned Bitcoin maximalist. We unpack his journey from discovering Bitcoin in 2021 to radically transforming his life, from homeschooling his kids and growing his own food to exiting the fiat health and education systems entirely. We dive deep into the meaning of self-sovereignty, the dangers of counterparty risk, the philosophy behind spending vs saving Bitcoin, and the risks of Bitcoin lending and treasury companies. This conversation goes far beyond price charts — it's about reclaiming your freedom, your time, and your future.

What happens when a Salvadoran developer quits trading shitcoins, starts driving Uber, and ends up shaping national Bitcoin education policy? In this episode, Mike sits down with Acreonte, one of the first graduates of the Cubo Plus program and now a key player behind El Salvador's push to integrate Bitcoin into its institutions.Acreonte shares what it's really like to live on a Bitcoin standard, from earning SATs at Plan B Network to spending them with the Blink wallet at farmers markets and meetups across the country. He also opens up about the unexpected shift back into fiat life when he joined the Ministry of Education, trading T-shirts and cold wallets for suits and bureaucratic emails.They talk about the cultural tension between fiat and Bitcoin mindsets, what it takes to build real dev talent from the ground up, and how programs like Cubo Plus are helping Salvadoran youth go from zero to building on Lightning. Along the way, Acreonte reflects on his own transformation, from civil war survivor to casino game developer to educator trying to future-proof public schools.This episode is a snapshot of what it means to build from within, in a country betting on Bitcoin not just for headlines but for human capital.

Why isn't Bitcoin pumping despite all the institutional hype? This video dives deep into “Paper Bitcoin,” why institutions like BlackRock are buying in, and why real Bitcoiners shouldn't worry. If you think you know Bitcoin—think again.SPONSORS:

Hunter Beast is the author of BIP 360: a proposal that seeks to provide quantum resistance to Bitcoin, to prevent powerful computer builders from brute forcing arbitrary addresses to steal the funds. But is the quantum threat real? Does the number of qubits really make a difference when the quantum computer is general purpose? Shouldn't other industries outside of Bitcoin, especially governments and banks, be worried about the fragility of elliptic curve cryptography? In this episode, we'll try to answer some of these questions and also refer to Hunter Beast's previous experience with building RGB for Bitcoin tokens. ––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Time stamps: 01:08 - Introducing Hunter Beast 01:27 - BIP 360 and Quantum Resistance Hunter Beast introduces BIP 360, aimed at making Bitcoin resistant to quantum computing threats, a hot topic due to predictions of advanced quantum computers potentially breaking ECDSA signatures. 02:19 - Defining Bitcoin's Quantum Threat Quantum computing is institutional, not accessible to average Bitcoiners, making verification difficult. The threat is existential but not immediate, though warnings suggest proximity. 03:58 - U.S. Government Warnings U.S. government and institutions are preparing for quantum resistance by 2030, urging upgrades to protect against potential cryptographic breaks. 05:53 - Consensus Challenges Hard forks ensure UTXO migration but face consensus issues; soft forks are preferred, but coins must move to quantum-resistant addresses to avoid vulnerabilities. 06:38 - Bitcoin's Quantum Vulnerabilities Taproot, reused addresses, mempool-published data, and exposed public keys are vulnerable. ~90% of reused address coins are active, reducing concern, but Taproot needs upgrades. 09:41 - BIP 360 Solution for Taproot BIP 360 focuses narrowly on fixing Taproot's vulnerability to long-exposure attacks, enabling wallets to commit to multiple scripts, including quantum-resistant ones like SLHDSA. 13:07 - Signature Schemes ECDSA is Bitcoin's weak point. Lamport and Winternitz signatures are flawed (one-time use), but SLHDSA (using a hypertree of Winternitz signatures) allows secure address reuse. 17:10 - User Experience Impact BIP 360 minimizes changes to user experience, offering opt-in quantum-resistant scripts. Wallets could include security dials, but defaults remain familiar. 20:14 - Transaction Size and Costs Post-quantum signatures are larger (4-8k bytes), but address commitments are minimal (~34 bytes). Block size increases aren't necessary; solutions like Bitzip could scale transactions. 22:27 – Sideshift.ai 23:17 - Drivechains and Layer Two Labs Drivechains offer secure sidechain solutions, decentralizing custody and scaling Bitcoin. Testing is available on Signet, with Litecoin considering implementation. 29:48 - Bitcoin Ossification Debate Ossification (resistance to change) vs. necessary upgrades debated. Quantum threats may force changes as Bitcoin secures more value, despite opposition. 36:36 - Conspiracy Theory Counter Concerns about government-driven fear dismissed; BIP 360 is opt-in, only used if quantum threats emerge, preserving user choice. 54:26 - Quantum Computing Progress IBM's Condor has 1,121 qubits; breaking ECDSA needs ~20M qubits. With quantum advancements outpacing Moore's Law, upgrades are prudent within a decade. 59:58 - Sponsor Plugs Citrea (ZK rollup for Bitcoin financial apps) and Edge Wallet (duress mode, multi-coin support) highlighted. 01:02:30 - BIP 360 Number Selection BIP 360 assigned by reviewers, not chosen by Hunterbeast, reserved for quantum-related proposals. 01:06:04 - BIP 360 Reception from Core Devs Mixed feedback from reviewers like Ava Chow (called it “stupid” but provided useful critique). Still in draft at bip360.org, open for review. 01:11:29 - Unintended Consequences BIP 360 is minimal, unlikely to cause surprises like Taproot's ordinal inscriptions, as it enhances existing functionality. 01:12:42 - Is Quantum Resistance Perishable and Needs Updates? BIP 360 isn't definitive; periodic updates may be needed as quantum computers advance, requiring a proactive Bitcoin culture. 01:19:12 - NoOnes, Bitcoin.com, 01:21:46 - Best Practices for Quantum Safety Avoid address reuse, use native SegWit (BC1Q) addresses, don't expose Xpubs, and consider private mempools like MARA Slipstream for large transactions. 01:24:27 - Closing Remarks Gratitude to Hunter Beast for discussing BIP 360 and quantum threats, wishing success for the proposal.

"You can't put all your eggs in one basket. You can't have one citizenship as a Bitcoiner. You must have a hedge in place." In this episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, Walker America sits down with Katie Ananina, founder of Plan B Passport and now with CitizenX, to explore how Bitcoiners can secure their sovereignty by stacking second passports, leveraging flag theory, and opting out of failing nation-states. Katie shares her incredible journey from pro athlete in post-Soviet Russia to U.S. immigrant, entrepreneur, and Bitcoin pioneer. She breaks down the sovereign individual thesis, the rise of Bitcoin citizenship programs like El Salvador's, and why jurisdictions like Serbia, Argentina, and the Caribbean are leading the charge. FOLLOW KATIE ON X: https://x.com/PlanBpassport GET A SECOND PASSPORT: https://citizenx.com/?ref=wa EXODUS MAP: https://citizenx.com/exodus They dive into: • Why Bitcoiners need second citizenships before it's too late • How nation-states are becoming subscription services • How governments are losing their monopoly on money and violence • Capital flight from socialist regimes like the UK and Canada • The future of microstates, borderless capital, and Bitcoin-based governance • How to acquire citizenship through investment, descent, or relocation Plus: prepping vs doomering, raising free kids in Austin, and what would cause Katie to finally leave America.

My guest today is Susie Violet Ward, CEO and co-founder of Bitcoin Policy UK, a financial analyst and journalist (Forbes) focused on Bitcoin and the environment. In this episode, Susie unpacks the regulatory hostility toward Bitcoin in the UK, from the FCA's refusal to distinguish it from crypto, to the media's relentless misinformation, especially by the BBC. We discuss her personal journey from accountant to developer to Bitcoiner, and the uphill battle of educating regulators, advocating for mining, and defending financial sovereignty. Susie shares her efforts to expose flawed climate narratives, resist CBDCs, and challenge the FATF Travel Rule's surveillance overreach. We also explore the risks of mining centralization, media capture, and why misunderstanding at the top is often worse than malice. Above all, this is a conversation about standing up for truth, pushing back against state overreach, and building a decentralized future, one policy at a time. ► This episode is part of the "Bitcoin Vegas 2025 Special" in collaboration with Ben Samocha, Founder of Israel's CryptoJungle and Crypto Talks podcast.► If you got value, please like, comment, share, follow and support my work.

What happens when Bitcoin meets real estate, alternative assets, and personal freedom?
