Main Topics:This week's episode of Swan Signal Live delivers a powerful mix of Bitcoin analysis, macroeconomic insights, and a dose of Swan-inspired creatine meme lore. The team dives into the ongoing “creatine craze” sparked by Brandon Quittem, which made waves even at institutional events like the Bitwise conference. Then it's all business—Bitcoin's 10K+ weekly price rally is dissected, especially in contrast to traditional markets like the S&P 500, which are still reeling.The conversation intensifies as the hosts break down a pivotal speech by Bessent from the Trump administration on reforming global financial institutions and pushing back against IMF “mission creep.” The big picture? A strategic reordering of the global monetary system with Bitcoin emerging as a vital asset in this uncertain landscape.Key Insights:Bitcoin has decoupled meaningfully from traditional assets, outperforming the S&P 500 amid macro turbulence.The Trump pivot—marked by a shift from Lutnick to Bessent—may have sparked the current market rebound.Twenty One Capital's emergence, backed by Tether and SoftBank, positions it as a major MicroStrategy competitor, validating Sailor's playbook and possibly fueling institutional FOMO.Fascinating discussion on post-halving Bitcoin cycles and how macroeconomic forces now overshadow supply-driven patterns.A sci-fi-tinged look at the future of human and AI integration, ethics, and the value of Bitcoin in an increasingly weird and tech-driven world.

“This makes Bitcoin miners uniquely symbiotic with energy grids serving as “demand response” partners. If energy is ever in short supply, people get priority over Bitcoin miners. However whenever there is excess energy, it gets monetized. This symbiotic relationship leads to more energy abundance generally.” ~ Brandon Quittem Another great piece coming at you today from The Bitcoin Times Ed 4, and by returning author Brandon Quittem, who did the incredible Mycelium Series for understanding Bitcoin through the lens of an organic mycelium like organism. Today he tackles Bitcoin mining, and how the altered incentives of Bitcoin make it a pioneer species that will allow us to expand into energy deserts, and spread the scope of civilization in a way not immediately obvious.

Brandon Quittem is a writer and Communications Director for Swan Bitcoin. In this interview, we discuss his latest article: ‘Bitcoin is a Pioneer Species', where he compares Bitcoin miners to species that settle and populate barren landscapes triggering the development of more advanced ecosystems. - - - - The acceptance of Bitcoin is an acceptance of the need for continuous education and receptivity. This past year has shown why: Bitcoin mining has been transformed from being a critical but specific cog in the often misunderstood Proof of Work protocol to a tool with the potential to transform the global energy industry. Nobody foresaw this. Going down the rabbit hole now involves gaining knowledge of energy systems: production methods, grids, distribution networks, batteries, energy economics etc. This knowledge is both a blessing and a curse. A blessing in that the veil of ignorance is lifted on this vital industry showing politicians are driving blind with their policy decisions. A curse in that those sceptical that Bitcoin can change finance, are now incredulous when we state it can transform energy too. But the logic is clear. Bitcoin can harness electrical energy anywhere in the world. In doing so it can facilitate and thereby fast-track the build-out of energy in isolated environments, becoming a bridge for costly downstream investment needed to connect such sources to a grid. All of this without any need for a state subsidy, or international coordination. Bitcoin can therefore revitalise existing populations: currently, a billion people don't have access to electricity. Imagine what benefits could be brought by integrating these people into the digital economy. Bitcoin mining can also be the pioneer species for previously uninhabited areas of the planet. It can take barren areas and provide the economic basis from which further development can grow. Contemplating that should make it clear: we're still so very early!

In dieser Folge sprechen wir mit Jesse über die Energiesysteme, erneuerbare Energien und die Rolle Bitcoins. Hierfür erläutert Jesse zunächst, wie das Energiesystem in Deutschland derzeit funktioniert, aus welchen einzelnen Bausteinen dieses besteht, welche Probleme bzw. Herausforderungen durch erneuerbare Energien entstehen und wieso Speichertechnologien aktuell noch keine Lösung sind. Anschließend beleuchten wir, wieso das Bitcoin-Mining als neuer Baustein betrachtet werden kann, welche Eigenschaften und Vorteile es mit sich bringt und wieso das Mining als Ergänzung zu Speichertechnologien dienen kann. Zum Schluss werfen wir noch einen Blick auf die Theorie, dass Bitcoin-Mining in abgelegenen Regionen ungenutzte Energiequellen nutzbar machen kann, dadurch insbesondere Entwicklungsländer Elektrizität erhalten können und beantworten die Frage, welche Rolle die Elektrifizierung eines Landes für die Lebensqualität einer Gesellschaft spielt.

In our first in-person recording of High Hash Rate Mike and Dan speak with Robert Breedlove, host of the “What is Money?” podcast, Brandon Quittem, and Brekkie about money, the state, the Laws of God, Physics, and the requirement of ‘Proof of Work' as it relates to their legitimacy. We even ventured into cosmic discussions on humans relation to mushrooms, imaginary property, and of course, Bitcoin.Robert Breedlove:Twitter: @Breedlove22YouTube: @RobertBreedlove22Website: www.whatismoneypodcast.comBrandon Quittem:Twitter: @BquittemWebsite: www.BrandonQuittem.comBrekkie:Twitter: @BVBTCBook: Rhyming Bitcoin (Available on Amazon)Website: www.VonBitcoinArt.comDan: Twitter: @hrtlndbitcoinMike: Twitter: @Rundancebitcoin

What is the most honest use for Psychedelics? - Spiritual, Medicinal, or Hedonism? Welcome to the second Episode of The Psychedelic Series on The Wake Up Podcast. Brandon Quittem & Lex, aka Bitcoin Mechanic join me to discuss a wide range of ideas, both for and against the use of such substances. This is one of the best, and most requested series I've recorded. More episodes coming up, and each will cover topics listed below, and more: What are psychedelics? Why Psychedelics? Why did you choose to take this side of the discussion? Why does it matter so much to you? What is your story of psychedelics? Did it make you more open or close minded? What's your position on Ego? What's your position on Masculine & Feminine energies? What's your position on trauma? Are you familiar with the Adlerian School of Psychology? Do you sit in the cause or effect side of the universal equation? Who are people you respect. Current and ancient figures. Why? What values do you respect in individuals? What social norms do you think matter most, and which are we missing? Do you think the world has issues right now that are resultant of liberalism or conservatism? Do we live in a society that is over-medicated? Are people weaker as a result of always having a cushion? Thoughts about the normalisation of these substances in the modern age & their use by the ‘average person'? Thoughts on their use as ‘medicines'? Thoughts on their use as shortcuts or even pathways to ‘enlightenment'? “Beware of Unearned wisdom” Are psychedelics a tool? If so, then are they not neutral? And if neutral, are most people not good candidates for this? If no, then why are they strictly good? Are we not seeing the effects of a civilisation in moral decay because everything is liberated, progressive and relative? Everything is apparently an illusion anyway, so fuck structure, fuck order, fuck ego and fuck authority. Is this not a danger? + So much more. Tune in for the month of November to go down this rabbit hole. You will NOT be disappointed. ____________________________________ Thanks again for listening.

Brandon Quittem (@bquittem) is an entrepreneur, writer, speaker, and Bitcoiner. He's been writing online since 2013 and his articles have been read by over 2 million people. His original article "Bitcoin is The Mycelium of Money" is exploring the parallels between Bitcoin and mycelium. The German translation of the 4-part series was read on the Bitcoin Library Podcast in episodes 20-23. Visit https://brandonquittem.com/ for more articles.

For this insightful and highly informative episode Cedric sits down again with Bitcoin author and thinker Brandon Quittem for a wide ranging conversation about Bitcoin as a pioneer species, ecology, how utilizing more energy and not less will save the planet and why he's so optimistic about the future even as we go through another fourth turning. Brandon is an entrepreneur, writer, speaker, and passionate Bitcoiner. He's currently building SwanBitcoin.com which is the best place to buy Bitcoin in the US. His articles have been read by more than 2 million people online. Most well known for exploring the parallels between Bitcoin and mycelium.

If you cleave a piece off, you're just making more. It cannot be stopped, no matter how hard governments, detractors, or other obstacles may stand in its way. Brandon and Ced ponder a potential Second Civil War, psychedelics, Millennial thinking vs Zoomer thinking, and where we stand in The Fourth Turning.

Brandon Quittem joins me for a discussion to deconstruct the often misunderstood relationship between energy and Bitcoin.

Brandon Quittem comes on to discuss his recent article, "Bitcoin is a Pioneer Species." Brandon is a philosopher and a writer and advisor for Swan Bitcoin. He became famous for his writing "The Mycelium of Money" which compared fungi to Bitcoin in a brilliant way.The article touches a lot on energy and bitcoin mining (two of my favorite bitcoin topics). We also cover a variety of topics from the incentives around mining, how States will adopt mining and even fun predictions on the future! Renaissance 2.0?I had an awesome time speaking to Brandon. I hope you enjoy my conversation with him as much as I did and I will see you on the other side!-------------------------------------------------Please, if you have the opportunity write me a review on Apple Podcasts.

Today we have an incredible chat as a followup to the recent piece Read_596 - Bitcoin is a Pioneer Species. We have author Brandon Quittem joining us today to dive deeper into the concept he lays out in the article, further into the consequences of what it means for energy production, and ultimately, where our species is likely to spread out and inhabit on the planet with such a powerful new set of incentives.

“This makes Bitcoin miners uniquely symbiotic with energy grids serving as “demand response” partners. If energy is ever in short supply, people get priority over Bitcoin miners. However whenever there is excess energy, it gets monetized. This symbiotic relationship leads to more energy abundance generally.” - Brandon Quittem Another great piece coming at you today from The Bitcoin Times Ed 4, and by returning author Brandon Quittem, who did the incredible Mycelium Series for understanding Bitcoin through the lens of an organic mycelium like organism. Today he tackles Bitcoin mining, and how the altered incentives of Bitcoin make it a pioneer species that will allow us to expand into energy deserts, and spread the scope of civilization in a way not immediately obvious.

Location: Miami Date: Tuesday 30th November Company: Swan Bitcoin Role: Director of Marketing “History doesn't repeat itself, but it often rhymes.” This quote, credited to Mark Twain, is a good TD;LR for The Fourth Turning: An American Prophecy by William Strauss and Neil Howe. In this seminal book, they theorize that American history can be subdivided into four recurring generational periods, which culminate in a crisis at the end of 80-90 year cycles. It is argued that we're in the middle of a fourth turning crisis, an era of destruction when institutions are dismantled and rebuilt. In the year since I first spoke to Brandon Quittem about The Fourth Turning, economic and geopolitical events have further fuelled this belief. US global hegemony is waning, concern is growing that factional tensions in the US could escalate, there is increasing grass-root tension across the world countries over state-mandated pandemic controls. In the meantime, as economic indicators flash red, trust in politicians and central bankers is rapidly eroding. So are we witnessing the evolution of the fourth turning amidst the rise of Bitcoin? In this interview, I talk to Brandon Quittem, a writer and advisor for Swan Bitcoin. We discuss what we can learn from previous turnings, Bitcoin's role as a life raft in these uncertain times, and whether Bitcoin could fundamentally end these cycles.
“I wish people engineered things to be self-replicating, self adjusting, self-governing, and ever-lasting. But nobody has engineered anything to do even one of these, and then along comes Bitcoin and does them all” - Tomer Strolight Bitcoin isn't merely a new innovation in the world of tech, its a wholly unique system that behaves so differently from everything today, the social, the engineering, and the organic systems that we are accustomed to, that one could easily find themselves wondering whether it makes more sense that Bitcoin is an alien technology. Maybe we know that it isn't, but it is certainly hard to learn about Bitcoin without once pausing to wonder... check out this piece plus tons of other great work from Tomer below: https://tomerstrolight.medium.com/why-people-wonder-if-bitcoin-is-alien-technology-f9fda5b018b Mentioned in the episode for further reading/exploring: Brandon Quittem's Mycelium Series Part 1 - https://bitcoinaudible.com/bitcoin-is-a-decentralized-organism/ Part 2 - https://anchor.fm/thecryptoconomy/episodes/CryptoQuikRead_224---Bitcoin-is-a-Social-Creature--Mycelium-Part-2-e3iq3u Part 3 - https://bitcoinaudible.com/bitcoin-is-the-antivirus/ Part 4 - https://bitcoinaudible.com/bitcoin-is-a-catalyst-for-human-evolution/ Bitcoin is Generational Wealth https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Rnqst5qCgA For the best products and services to get you started in Bitcoin, our sponsors are literally a handful of those that I use most in this space: • Get Bitcoin rewards on literally everything you buy with the Fold Card (20% discount) • Buy Bitcoin automatically and painlessly with SwanBitcoin • Keep your Bitcoin keys safe on the secure, open source BitBox02 (5% discount code GUY) • Get tickets to the biggest & most exciting Bitcoin conference in the world!

Location: Remotely Date: Thursday 19th November Company: Swan Bitcoin Role: Director of Marketing 2020 has been a year like no other. With the outbreak of the coronavirus, large parts of the world went into lockdown in an attempt to contain its spread. The virus has been hugely politicised, and government responses have been polarising. Amid the outbreak, the death of George Floyd while in police custody sparked one of the most massive protests in history. What started as a peaceful protest escalated and caused looting and violence. Cities across America implemented curfews, and President Trump threatened to use the military to put an end to the unrest. Most recently, the US election has been marred by controversy. After initially falling behind in the race Joe Biden was declared the winner. However, Trump has so far refused to concede defeat and claims a fraud has been committed on the American people as he attempts to retain power. While the events of 2020 are unexpected, some predicted this unravelling of the world order. In 1996 Neil Howe and William Strauss released their book The Fourth Turning which suggests that every 80-90 years a crisis recurs known as the Fourth Turning. With the Great Depression in the '30s followed by the Second World War marking the previous crisis period, some think we may be witnessing the next one. In this interview, I talk to Brandon Quittem, a writer and advisor for Swan Bitcoin. We discuss the Fourth Turning, each 90-year cycle, individualism vs collectivism and the role that Bitcoin plays.
Want to hear all of the bullish cases for Bitcoin? Protection for pensions, the fiscal cliff we are speeding toward, capital movement for the wealthy, a safe haven for corporate treasuries, a dominant millennial investment vehicle, & so much more. Bitcoin has so many feedback mechanisms to increase its value, to make it a globally significant asset for every demographic, & potentially to fulfill the role as a new global reserve. All while having a perfectly inelastic supply. The only thing that can adjust, is the price.

Bitcoin is a fungus. If you cleave a piece off, you're just making more. It cannot be stopped, no matter how hard governments, detractors, or other obstacles may stand in its way. Brandon and Ced ponder a potential Second Civil War, psychedelics, Millennial thinking vs Zoomer thinking, and where we stand in The Fourth Turning. In all of this turmoil, how does Bitcoin reduce suffering?
"Individuals can opt-out of their local currency by joining the Bitcoin life raft. Protect purchasing power, rather than go down with the sinking ship that is their state." - Brandon Quittem A fascinating journey through the concept of the Fourth Turning and analysis of the incredible times we live in. More will change in the next decade than in the previous 8 combined. We are entering a time where our old institutions are torn down and built anew. Do we devolve into collectivism and totalitarian rule? Or can we find a way to protect and fan the flames of individual liberty and sustain a prosperous future for the next generation.

"Mycelial networks act as a resource transport layer and communications network connecting organisms in the biosphere. This enables organisms to voluntarily trade resources and knowledge across species lines. Increasing trade leads to increased specialization (division of labor), further increasing biodiversity (wealth and resilience) in the ecosystem." - Brandon Quittem After the long wait, we are finally covering Part 4, the conclusion, of Quittem's incredible "Mycelial Money" series, exploring Bitcoin as a catalyst for the evolution of our species.

“Life is like fire, not water; it is a process, not a pure substance.

"To the casual observer, most of bitcoin's life is boring — months go by with relatively little action. Then when conditions are just right, bitcoin explodes into life, growing massively in size, and hijacking the consciousness of observers." - Brandon Quittem Today we're diving back into the series by Brandon Quittem that peers from a bird's eye view at the nature of Bitcoin, and explores its patterns and growth through the framework of a mycelial network.
