Chris Michaels, of the show with his name, joins us for a packed friday broadcast that goes beyond the supposed free-minded alternative commentary of world events. Find Chris @CMichaelsShow on X and on Spotify https://t.co/abBhfo5YqlTonight: From personal experience, Ryan and Chris dissect their first and secondhand accounts of local politics being filled with literal drugs and sex. Did Mike Huckabee finally realize how evil Israeli settlers are when he called them “terrorists” or is this simply PR to placate the base? The US bans Central Bank Digital Currency and immediately the White House pushes the crypto firm World Liberty Financial, and Stable Coin. From Tom Alexandrovich to Michael Caruso, the “tickle monster” who was just arrested on child sex abuse charges, disgust over pedophilia is apparently also antisemitic. While Q had you chasing spiral designs in manga or rock paintings, people like Tom get flown back to Israel. Rabbi Shmuley refers to his enemies as reptilians, while Norm Coleman says “the masters of the universe are Jews,”and AIPAC makes a video claiming that Jews are human like the rest of us.  Lastly, when the next Führer comes to power, it is highly likely they will be a combination of Trump and Mamdani.It appears the overall theme here is that every active opposition and resistance is kosher approved. Everything is sex, drugs and a rock and a hard place — what is real and what isn't.  *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements. If you want an ad-free experience, subscribe below.

(Part 1)The Noahide Framework – Trump, Kabbalah, and the Legal Theology of the Beast System

In this episode Jeff Shepard presents a theoretical, evidence-driven interpretation tying together the Noahide framework, Kabbalistic influence, and Donald Trump's political role as a potential forerunner to a centralized global authority centered on Jerusalem. Shepard traces the Noahide laws from their rabbinic codification in Tractate Sanhedrin 56a through Maimonides and cites historical sources (including the 1906 Jewish Encyclopedia) on their enforcement provisions. He highlights Public Law 102-14 (1991) and subsequent presidential proclamations that recognize the seven Noahide laws as foundational to Western civilization and notes the public honors extended to Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson. The episode surveys Chabad-Lubavitch as a primary institutional driver, explaining its Kabbalistic theology (Lurianic concepts such as tzimtzum, tikkun olam, and nitzotzot) and its global reach. Shepard connects those theological currents to Western esotericism and thinkers like Alice Bailey, arguing a continuity between mystical Kabbalah, Western occult streams, and plans for an externalized spiritual hierarchy. Focusing on Donald Trump, Shepard outlines documented links—public records, personal acknowledgments, and associates (Eitan Yerdeni, Jared Kushner's family ties, Michael Cohen's red string)—and discusses invitations from nascent Sanhedrin bodies and a proposed international court grounded in Noahide principles. He interprets these ties as part of a normalization process that could shift legal and geopolitical authority toward Jerusalem, including preparation for Third Temple developments (red heifers, reconstituted Sanhedrin). The core argument presents a three-layer architecture for what Shepard terms the BEAST system: Layer 1 (technological — neural interfaces, AI, CBDC-ready identification and surveillance networks), Layer 2 (financial and governance — central banking, CBDCs, regional governance models, Great Reset actors), and Layer 3 (legal-theological enforcement — Noahide law as a religious-legal mechanism to justify exclusion and capital enforcement). Shepard explains how these layers interlock to control commerce, monitor compliance, and supply theological justification for punitive measures. In the closing segment Shepard addresses responses for the Christian remnant: documenting institutions, building resilient off-grid communities, refusing coercion, and maintaining testimony in the face of potential legal classification of Christian confession as idolatry. He frames the analysis biblically (Daniel, Revelation, Isaiah) and calls listeners to study, test the evidence, and stand with faith. Episode details: host Jeff Shepard; topics include Noahide law history and enforcement, Public Law 102-14, Chabad-Lubavitch and Kabbalah, Alice Bailey and Western esotericism, Trump's documented connections and potential institutional role, the three-layer BEAST architecture (technological, financial, legal-theological), and practical spiritual and community responses.

Hoe geniaal is de Amerikaanse GENIUS act? | 442 B

Negenennegentig procent van al het stablecoinvolume en van de reserves daarachter is in dollars. Wie in Europa met stablecoins werkt, kan de Amerikaanse regels dus niet negeren. Sinds vorig jaar heeft de Verenigde Staten die regels: de GENIUS Act, de eerste federale wet voor stablecoins. Daarvoor was er niets wat voor heel Amerika gold. Gast Mauro Halve liet zich certificeren als GENIUS Act Specialist en legt de wet in deze aflevering naast onze eigen cryptowet MiCA. De opzet verschilt meteen. Europa maakte een breed kader voor de hele cryptomarkt; Amerika pakte alleen de stablecoin aan die bedoeld is om mee te betalen. En waar een Europese vergunning in heel Europa geldt, kent de GENIUS Act drie routes: een route voor bankdochters, een federale route voor de cryptobedrijven en een route via een Amerikaanse staat. Boven de tien miljard dollar aan uitgifte moet je verplicht over naar federaal toezicht. Het grootste verschil zit in de kluis. Onder MiCA moet minstens dertig procent van de dekking als bankdeposito worden aangehouden en de rest in kortlopende, risicovrije alternatieven. De GENIUS Act werkt met een gesloten lijst: contant geld, tegoeden bij de centrale bank, verzekerde deposito's, staatsobligaties met een looptijd onder 93 dagen, repo's en geldmarktfondsen. Die geldmarktfondsen mogen ook getokeniseerd zijn, en dat verklaart waarom BlackRock er zoveel van uitgeeft. Precies daarop wees Paolo Ardoino van Tether toen hij weigerde de Europese route te nemen. Hij wil zijn reserves niet bij een bank parkeren maar in staatsobligaties, en verwees daarbij naar het omvallen van Silicon Valley Bank. Tegenover die ruimte staat een strenge achterkant: wie als bestuurder zijn handtekening onder een verkeerde rapportage zet, kan in de Verenigde Staten vijf jaar de gevangenis in. Voor een Europese uitgever is de deur niet dicht, maar wel smal. De Amerikaanse minister van Financiën moet dan eerst vaststellen dat het toezicht in het thuisland vergelijkbaar is. Kim Schneider ziet in haar werk dat de grootste uitdaging voor Europese partijen ergens anders ligt: je kunt een stablecoin uitgeven, maar dan moet er ook een netwerk zijn dat hem gebruikt. Tot slot de andere grote cryptowet, CLARITY, die over de hele marktstructuur gaat. Die blijft in de Senaat hangen, terwijl de GENIUS Act er soepel doorheen ging. En Halve noemt een detail waar Europa iets van kan leren: heeft de Amerikaanse toezichthouder een vergunningsaanvraag na 120 dagen niet behandeld, dan is die automatisch goedgekeurd. Vertraging is daar het probleem van de toezichthouder. Co-host is Kim Schneider. Over de podcast Cryptocurrency are here to stay.

Ruim een week na de hack van de Coldcard is de rust in de bitcoinwereld nog niet teruggekeerd. Het aantal slachtoffers loopt nog op en het gestolen bedrag is de grens van honderd miljoen dollar voorbij. De oorzaak lag niet bij de gebruikers maar in de software. Door een fout in de firmware werd de seed, de reeks woorden waarmee een wallet te herstellen is, aangemaakt met een softwarematige toevalsgenerator in plaats van de hardwarematige die er hoorde te zitten. Wie zijn seed op die manier heeft laten maken, kan die door een aanvaller laten narekenen. Op de blockchain is het gevolg goed te zien. In een week verhuisde ongeveer 210.000 bitcoin uit wallets van langetermijnhouders, de grootste uitstroom sinds december 2024. Dat is geen paniekverkoop maar een verhuizing, naar nieuwe wallets, naar bewaarpartijen met een vergunning en naar bitcoin ETF's. Daarmee komt de vraag op of volledig eigen beheer nog wel de veiligste route is, of dat een spreiding tussen eigen beheer en een rekening bij een bekende partij verstandiger uitpakt. Ondertussen is er een tegenbeweging opgestaan. Het Bitcoin Red Team, een groep vrijwilligers, laat AI de opensourcesoftware rondom bitcoin nalopen op dezelfde soort fouten. In de eerste 27,5 uur legden zestien onderzoekers 4.962 meldingen vast over 390 projecten, waarvan 85 als kritiek werden aangemerkt en 635 als ernstig. Niet het bitcoinprotocol zelf is het doelwit, maar de wallets, tools en toepassingen eromheen. Dat AI de fout in de Coldcard vond in code waar jaren niemand naar had gekeken, laat zien dat dezelfde techniek beide kanten dient. Coinkite, het bedrijf achter de Coldcard, was al eerder gewezen op risico's in de eigen software en heeft dat nu in een openbaar verslag vastgelegd. De volatiliteit op de cryptomarkt is extreem laag en de bitcoinkoers schommelt al weken tussen de 63 en 65 duizend dollar. De vraag is of dat aan de vakantieperiode ligt of dat er meer aan de hand is, en of we van een bodem in deze bearmarkt mogen spreken. Tot slot BIP-110. Bij blok 961.632 begon de verplichte signaleringsperiode van dit voorstel, dat niet financiële data zoals afbeeldingen tijdelijk uit bitcointransacties wil weren. De keten splitste zich, maar de afsplitsing produceerde in acht uur twee blokken terwijl de hoofdketen er 48 bij kreeg. De steun onder miners blijft rond 2,5 procent, ver onder de drempel van 55 procent. Michael Saylor riep in een essay met 110 argumenten op het voorstel te verwerpen. Voor wie bitcoin heeft, verandert er niets. Co-hosts zijn Kim Schneider en Mauro Halve. Over de podcast Cryptocurrency are here to stay.

Congress just passed one of the most significant pieces of digital asset legislation in American history—but almost nobody is asking the right question.In this episode of On The Record, Christian Briggs takes a deep dive into the CLARITY Act and separates political rhetoric from what the legislation actually says. Contrary to many claims circulating online, the House-passed version of the bill does not authorize a U.S. Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC). In fact, it contains provisions intended to make a retail Federal Reserve CBDC more difficult without additional congressional approval. But according to the white paper examined in this episode, that's only part of the story. The bigger question isn't whether Congress created a CBDC.It's whether America is quietly building the infrastructure that could support a digital financial system with many of the same practical characteristics.Christian explores what the white paper calls the "Private-CBDC Paradox"—the idea that a privately issued, government-regulated digital dollar ecosystem could eventually become identity-linked, highly traceable, and increasingly dependent on regulated financial intermediaries, even without the Federal Reserve issuing a digital dollar itself. The episode examines how digital wallets, stablecoins, blockchain settlement, compliance systems, and tokenized assets could reshape the financial landscape over the coming decades. It also explores four potential pathways outlined in the paper, including the gradual normalization of digital money, expanded financial monitoring, the possibility of a future financial crisis accelerating calls for a government-backed digital currency, and increasing concentration among a handful of financial gatekeepers. But this isn't a one-sided discussion.Christian also examines the strongest arguments in favor of the CLARITY Act, including improved consumer protections, regulatory clarity for businesses, reduced fraud, stronger global competitiveness for the U.S. dollar, and the possibility that a healthy private stablecoin market could actually reduce political pressure for a government-issued CBDC. Ultimately, this episode isn't about choosing sides.It's about asking better questions.As America moves toward a more digital financial future, what safeguards should exist? How do we balance innovation with privacy, efficiency with due process, and technological progress with individual liberty?Whether you support the CLARITY Act or oppose it, this conversation challenges listeners to think beyond the headlines and consider a much larger issue:What kind of financial system are we building—and who will ultimately control it?

Mogelijk duizenden slachtoffers na fout in software van Coldcard-wallets | 441 A

Cybercriminelen hebben afgelopen week ruim 100 miljoen dollar aan bitcoin weggehaald bij gebruikers van de Coldcard, de hardwarewallet van het merk Coinkite. Zo'n hardwarewallet is een apparaat dat de geheime sleutels van je cryptovaluta offline bewaart, los van internet, en gold jarenlang als de veiligste manier om bitcoin in eigen beheer te houden. Onder ervaren bitcoingebruikers was de Coldcard daarvoor het apparaat bij uitstek, tot en met een doorzichtige behuizing zodat je kon zien of er onderweg aan gesleuteld was. Wat er misging zit in de firmware, de software op het apparaat zelf. Bij het aanmaken van een seed, de reeks woorden waarmee een wallet te herstellen is, moet een apparaat volledig willekeurige getallen gebruiken. De Coldcard viel sinds maart 2021 terug op een zwakkere generator, waardoor het aantal mogelijke sleutels veel kleiner werd. In het slechtste geval bleven er 4,3 miljard mogelijkheden over, waar dat er 340 miljard miljard miljard miljard hadden moeten zijn. Met genoeg rekenkracht loop je zo'n reeks helemaal door. Daarmee is dit geen gewone hack. Er is niet ingebroken bij een handelsplatform en niemand is in een phishingmail getrapt. De aanvaller hoefde het apparaat niet eens in handen te hebben: wie de zwakke sleutel online reconstrueert, vindt het bijbehorende adres op de blockchain en verplaatst de bitcoin. Het vermoeden is dat een groot taalmodel de fout in de firmware heeft gevonden. Onderzoekers van Galaxy Research komen inmiddels op meer dan 7000 getroffen adressen, verdeeld over vier aanvalsgolven, en ook de kleine spaarder zit ertussen. Coinkite communiceert open over het lek en vernietigt de voorraad die nog op de plank lag, maar of het vertrouwen terugkomt is de vraag. Wie nog bitcoin op een Coldcard heeft staan, verplaatst die munten naar een nieuwe seed. Een prijsanalyse is er deze week niet, maar de koers trekt zich weinig aan van de hack en staat rond de 63.500 dollar per bitcoin. Daarna het nieuwe stakingrapport van Bitwise, over het vastzetten van cryptomunten om een netwerk te helpen beveiligen en daar een vergoeding voor te krijgen. Ondanks dalende koersen loopt het gebruik van de netwerken op en werd er een record aan assets gestaakt. Ethereum en Solana verwerkten meer transacties, maar hun inkomsten uit commissies daalden, doordat beide netwerken hun capaciteit vergrootten en de kosten per transactie verlaagden. Tegelijk zit ruim de helft van alle gestakete Solana bij Jito BAM en Harmonic, wat de vraag oproept hoe decentraal die netwerken nog zijn. Co-host is Kim Schneider.

LayerZero verbindt 160 blockchains en bouwt nu zelf een beurs voor Wall Street | 441 B

LayerZero is de laag waar de meeste cryptobeleggers nooit aan denken, en tegelijk de laag waarlangs het meeste geld beweegt. Het bedrijf verbindt zo'n 160 blockchains met een communicatieprotocol, ongeveer zoals TCP/IP de verschillende systemen op internet met elkaar laat praten. Ivar Wiersma, head of EMEA, legt uit waarom dat nodig is: vier jaar geleden liep nog negentig procent van alle activiteit over Ethereum, nu is dat rond de vijfenvijftig procent en zit de rest verspreid over Solana, Base, Arbitrum en Canton. Wie zijn stablecoin of getokeniseerde fonds op één netwerk uitgeeft, mist dus de helft van de markt. Een bridge is het officieel niet, al zijn de meeste moderne bridges erop gebouwd. De oude generatie zette alle waarde vast in één slim contract, en dat werd een lokkertje voor hackers: er verdween meer dan twee miljard dollar via die route. Bij LayerZero wordt honderd dollar aan stablecoins op het ene netwerk vernietigd en op het andere opnieuw aangemaakt, met een verificatiestap ertussen die de uitgever zelf inricht. Er zijn meer dan vijftig verifiers om uit te kiezen, en banken en vermogensbeheerders zetten er vaak een eigen bij. Het verdienmodel is dubbel: een kleine marge op elke transactie, omdat LayerZero het gas op alle netwerken voor de gebruiker regelt, en een vergoeding van de blockchains die aangesloten willen zijn. Het protocol zelf is open source en gratis voor uitgevers. Volgens Wiersma loopt tachtig procent van alle dollarwaarde die tussen blockchains beweegt onder water via LayerZero, tien tot vijftien miljard dollar per maand, met Tether, PayPal, Ondo en Robinhood als klanten. Alleen USDC ontbreekt, want Circle bouwde vroeg zijn eigen oplossing. Daar komt nu een eigen blockchain bij, Zero, gericht op handel en afwikkeling. Wiersma noemt een miljoen transacties per seconde tegen een tienduizendste cent per stuk, waar Ethereum er vijf tot tien doet en Solana vijfduizend. Partners zijn de DTCC, de New York Stock Exchange met moederbedrijf ICE, en Citadel Securities. Het voorbeeld dat iedereen in de gaten houdt is Hyperliquid, dat in 2025 met vijftien mensen 880 miljoen dollar operationele winst maakte. Ook het incident bij KelpDAO komt langs. Die klant had de beveiliging teruggezet naar één verifier, die werd gekraakt, en er verdween restaked ether. Sindsdien weigert LayerZero zelf te verifiëren als er maar één partij achter een verbinding zit. Co-host is Kim Schneider. Over de podcast Cryptocurrency are here to stay.

Hoe streng zijn nieuwe ethiekregels voor Trump's eigen crypto-imperium? | 440 A

Het Witte Huis presenteerde afgelopen week een aangescherpte versie van de Clarity Act, de Amerikaanse wet die moet vastleggen wie in de Verenigde Staten de baas is over crypto: toezichthouder SEC voor effecten, of de CFTC voor grondstoffen en derivaten. Nieuw is een ethiekhoofdstuk van zes artikelen dat de president, de vicepresident, Congresleden, federale rechters en hun echtgenoten verbiedt om tijdens hun ambtstermijn tegen betaling tokens uit te geven of te sponsoren. Bestaande cryptobelangen moeten binnen een jaar worden verkocht of naar een blind trust verhuizen, en beurzen mogen tokens die onder dat verbod vallen niet listen. Toch zit er ruimte in de tekst. Het verbod gaat over uitgeven en sponsoren, niet over bezitten, en een clausule staat uitgevers toe de gelijkenis van een politicus te blijven gebruiken als de token al vóór het aantreden bestond. De TRUMP-coin verscheen drie dagen voor de beëdiging. Kinderen van politici vallen er evenmin onder, terwijl Donald Trump Jr. en Eric Trump betrokken zijn bij World Liberty Financial. Bovendien vervalt het hele pakket op 20 januari 2029, en daarna kunnen ook oudere overtredingen niet meer worden vervolgd. Dat verklaart waarom zeven Democratische senatoren het concept alsnog te mager vinden op ethiek, illegale geldstromen en belangenverstrengeling. Onder hen Angela Alsobrooks en Ruben Gallego, precies de twee die in mei in de commissie vóór stemden. Meerderheidsleider John Thune verwacht niet dat de wet vóór het zomerreces van 10 augustus af is, terwijl minister van Financiën Scott Bessent en cryptoadviseur Patrick Witt de eerste week van augustus nog kansrijk noemen. Handelaren op Polymarket schatten de kans op ondertekening dit jaar op ongeveer 43 procent. Tim Stolte, portfoliomanager bij Amdax en host van de podcast Een Nieuwe Koers, kijkt naar een markt die er in de zomervakantie stabiel bij ligt en steeds een beetje hoger kruipt. Deze week staat ook het rentebesluit van de Amerikaanse centrale bank op het programma. Banken en bedrijven trekken ondertussen miljoenen uit om bitcoin te beschermen tegen quantumcomputers. Bitcoin bewijst eigendom met cryptografie op basis van elliptische curves, en een voldoende krachtige quantumcomputer kan die stap omdraaien: van publieke sleutel terug naar geheime sleutel. Project Eleven schat dat zo'n 6,9 miljoen bitcoin in adressen zit waarvan de publieke sleutel al zichtbaar op de blockchain staat. Over de urgentie lopen de schattingen ver uiteen, van drie tot vijf jaar voorbereidingstijd in een rapport van Bernstein tot twintig tot veertig jaar volgens Adam Back van Blockstream. Aan oplossingen wordt gewerkt. BIP-360 introduceerde in februari een adrestype dat het kwetsbare onderdeel weghaalt, en BIP-361 gaat verder: kwetsbare munten migreren en na vijf jaar bevriezen, waaronder naar schatting 1,7 miljoen bitcoin in oeroude adressen waarvan zo'n miljoen vermoedelijk van Satoshi Nakamoto is. Galaxy stelt tot vijf miljoen dollar beschikbaar voor quantumbestendige handtekeningen, migratietools en audits. Negen partijen zetten daarnaast vijftien miljoen dollar over drie jaar in via het Bitcoin Security Consortium, gecoördineerd door Mike Schmidt van Brink, dat expliciet vastlegt zich niet met het protocol te bemoeien.

Lars Heerink richtte in 2024 BlockCentral op, een Nederlands fonds dat belegt in altcoins, oftewel alle cryptomunten die geen bitcoin zijn. Wie wil instappen legt minimaal een ton in. Vorige maand werd het fonds uitgeroepen tot beste cryptofonds van Nederland, een titel waarover Heerink zelf mocht meestemmen. Dat deed hij ook. Op de eigen website staat het onomwonden: outperform, proven. BlockCentral heeft bitcoin verslagen sinds de start in augustus 2024, precies de periode waarin bitcoin bijna elke andere belegging achter zich liet. Voor een altcoinfonds was dat op papier de slechtst denkbare timing om te beginnen. Het onderscheidend vermogen zit volgens Heerink niet in de muntkeuze maar in de timing. Yield binnenhalen tijdens een bearmarkt, acht tot tien procent, instappen rond bodemvorming en het risico opvoeren richting een altseason. Daarmee is bitcoin een wankele maatstaf, en lijkt BlockCentral eerder een timingfonds dat toevallig in altcoins zit dan een altcoinfonds. Een strategie die zo helder te beschrijven is, valt in principe ook te kopiëren, met een team van twee man dat erachter zit. Ondertussen hapert de klassieke doorstroom van bitcoinwinst naar kleinere munten. Nieuw geld komt binnen via ETF's, en die kopen geen governance tokens. Tokenomist onderzocht 236 momenten waarop nieuwe tokens vrijkwamen en zag dat bijna driekwart daarvan een maand later lager stond tegenover bitcoin. Van de tienduizenden tokens die inmiddels bestaan blijft dan een smalle groep over die het woord belegging verdient. Wat er wel in de portefeuille zat: getokeniseerde Pokémonkaarten, een van de klappers van de afgelopen twee jaar. En het geld dat nu naar tokenisering van aandelen en andere echte activa stroomt, komt vooral terecht bij bitcoin, ethereum en een handvol grote namen. De constructie eromheen is lichter dan de term AFM-geregistreerd cryptofonds suggereert. Registratie onder het AIFMD lightregime is geen vergunning en levert geen doorlopend toezicht op, waardoor een belegger een aantal beschermingen mist die bij een fonds met volledige vergunning wel gelden. Pas boven honderd miljoen euro beheerd vermogen wordt een AIFM-vergunning verplicht, en zolang die grens niet in zicht is ziet Heerink er geen reden voor. Dat laat de sleutels van de munten over aan het fonds zelf, met alle vragen over hacks en faillissement die daarbij horen. En de flashcrash van 10 oktober was voor de man aan de knoppen geen abstractie. Co-host is Raoul Esseboom. Over de podcast Cryptocurrency are here to stay.

I walk through the global push for Central Bank Digital Currencies, why voluntary rollouts have mostly flopped, and what governments really gain from programmable, fully surveilled money. I dig into the upcoming digital euro, the U.S. Senate's move against a federal CBDC, and the rise of OpenUSD as an open stablecoin standard. Ultimately I argue that while CBDCs are about control, the infrastructure they create may unintentionally supercharge a global Bitcoin exit ramp. I break down why this surveillance trap might give us our ultimate exit.

Cafe Bitcoin returns for 50 Days for Bitcoin — Day 1 of 50. Cory Klippsten reboots the daily Cafe Bitcoin show to kick off Swan's 50 Days for Bitcoin campaign: 50 basis point buy fees for 50 days (July 21 to September 8), daily weekday Spaces at 10:00 AM ET, and a return to the education-first roots that built the Bitcoin community on Clubhouse in 2020-2021. In this episode: 50 Days for Bitcoin launch: Swan cuts its buy fee in half to 50 bps for 50 days, the lowest-cost way to buy Bitcoin into self-custody in the US. Over 80% of the Bitcoin ever bought on Swan is in self-custody. "The Battle for Monetary Independence": Cory's new essay, woven around his grandfather's war journal from the USS Yorktown in the Pacific Theater. Political independence was the founders' great work; monetary independence is ours. Read it at swan.com/battle. The Clubhouse origin story: how Cafe Bitcoin started, the invite tree that flooded Clubhouse with thousands of Bitcoiners, how Swan Private and Anchor Watch grew out of those rooms. The freedom backslide: UK under-16 social media ban, the Utah VPN ban, age verification for AI chatbots, EU chat control, and the digital euro. Why the counter to all of it is self-custody. Dollar merchants: how stablecoins turned more than half the industry into dollar salesmen, and why the dollar is not a gateway drug to Bitcoin. Saifedean's cocktail party problem: why socialism is winning arguments right now, and why the answer is opting out of politics entirely and building on Bitcoin. Self-custody, the full stack: free auto-withdrawal with locally derived addresses, Swan Sovereign guided self-custody, Swan Vault collaborative custody, and Swan Safe segregated custody. Community: Pacific Bitcoin memories, BIP-47 paynyms explained, Bobby Burnett's new show for the older generation, the no-BIP-fights house rule, and the Snow Crash reading club pick.

Solana blijft een bron van beweging, ook nu de markt in een bearmarket zit. In dit tweede deel schuift Geale Simon Postma aan, ambassadeur van de Solflare wallet en contentmaker op Eyekon. Samen met co-host Jacob Boersma, onafhankelijk paymentsexpert, kijken we naar de staat van het ecosysteem: hoe het sentiment is, wat je merkt van de dalende markt en of de grotere namen afhaken of juist blijven. De Solana Seeker, de tweede smartphone van het netwerk die vorige aflevering centraal stond, komt opnieuw langs. Leeft het toestel nog, wat gebeurt er met de bijbehorende tokens en hoe staat het met Solana als hardwareplatform? Ook de gameconsole passeert de revue, en de vraag of daar meer spellen voor verschijnen. Het grootste verhaal draait om de vervlechting van Wall Street en Solana. Voorspellingsmarkt Kalshi laat zien hoe die werelden in elkaar schuiven, maar het meest sprekende voorbeeld is SpaceX. Op de dag dat het bedrijf van Elon Musk naar de beurs ging, verscheen er tegelijk een getokeniseerd aandeel op Solana. Achter dat product zit Backpack, dat voor elk uitgegeven token daadwerkelijk een SpaceX aandeel koopt en in bewaring houdt. Daardoor kun je het token inwisselen voor het echte aandeel en het overzetten naar een gewone effectenrekening. Dat model botst met concurrent xStocks, die een andere constructie hanteert. De onderliggende vraag: worden dit soort getokeniseerde aandelen een kernonderdeel van Solana, en hoe hard gaat het nu al? Onder de motorkap verandert er ondertussen veel. Firedancer, de nieuwe softwareclient van Jump Crypto, draait inmiddels een halfjaar live en maakt het netwerk minder afhankelijk van één implementatie. Nog ingrijpender is Alpenglow, de protocolwijziging die proof of history overboord gooit, de cryptografische klok waarop Solana sinds de start draaide. De validators stemden er met ruim 98 procent voor, een percentage dat Simon gekscherend Noord-Koreaans noemt. De vraag is of al die extra snelheid werkelijk nodig was, en wat Solana volgens Simon nu écht onderscheidt. Tot slot het leven op en rond het netwerk. Superteam bestaat een halfjaar en verbindt bouwers via onder meer een Creator Bounty. Pokemonkaarten groeien uit tot een onverwachte hype op Solana, en influencer Ansem duikt op rond Black Bull. Zitten we daarmee aan het begin van een nieuwe memecoincyclus? Co-host is Jacob Boersma. Over de podcast Cryptocurrency are here to stay.

Jesse Pollak, de man achter Base, noemt zijn eigen socialestrategie een mislukking. De Base App had moeten uitgroeien tot een allesomvattende cryptoapp, een gedecentraliseerd sociaal netwerk waarin gebruikers zelf eigenaar zijn van hun profiel en connecties in plaats van een centrale partij als Facebook of X. In een lang bericht op X schreef Pollak vorige week dat hij het definitief mis had. Waar ontwikkelaars met producten als stablecoins en voorspellingsmarkten wel groei realiseerden, kwamen de sociale toepassingen niet van de grond. Pollak geeft de leiding over de app terug aan moederbedrijf Coinbase, waar Jordan Fish, in cryptokringen bekend als Cobie, het overneemt. Zelf richt hij zich voortaan volledig op Base, het tweedelaagsnetwerk op ethereum dat transacties sneller en goedkoper wil afwikkelen. Blijft de vraag of dit soort socialecryptoprojecten ooit een kans van slagen hadden. Van een mislukking naar een primeur. Vermogensbeheerder T. Rowe Price, met 1,9 biljoen dollar onder beheer, bracht deze week het eerste actief beheerde multitoken cryptofonds op de Amerikaanse beurs. Zo'n exchange traded fund, kortweg etf, is een beursgenoteerd mandje beleggingen dat je in een keer koopt. Waar de bestaande bitcoin en ethereum etf's een vaste index volgen, mogen de beheerders van dit fonds de samenstelling zelf aanpassen aan de markt. In het mandje zitten onder meer bitcoin, ethereum, BNB, solana, XRP en Hyperliquid. Je betaalt er voorlopig 0,75 procent beheervergoeding voor, een tarief dat vanaf mei 2027 oploopt naar 0,9 procent. De vraag is voor wie zo'n actief beheerd fonds geschikt is, en of die afdracht opweegt tegen een goedkopere indexvariant. Tot slot een waarschuwing uit Frankfurt. De Europese Centrale Bank vreest dat de opkomst van stablecoins, cryptomunten die een op een gekoppeld zijn aan een gewone munt als de dollar, spaargeld kan wegtrekken bij traditionele banken. Bestuurslid Piero Cipollone van de ECB hield Europese banken voor dat ze met mobiele betaalapps al kosten en klantdata verliezen, en dat daar met stablecoins ook nog eens hun deposito's bij kunnen komen. Voor banken is dat geen boekhoudkundig detail, want juist met die deposito's verstrekken ze leningen. Cipollone noemt de digitale euro de enige structurele oplossing, al levert die geen rente op je spaargeld op. Dat een bestuurder van de ECB waarschuwt voor stablecoins en tegelijk het eigen alternatief aanprijst, roept de vraag op hoe zwaar die waarschuwing weegt. In de Verenigde Staten moet de GENIUS Act, precies een jaar geleden ondertekend, een vergelijkbaar risico juist indammen. Co-host is Jacob Boersma. Over de podcast Cryptocurrency are here to stay.

¿Bitcoin es realmente dinero, una reserva de valor o la mayor narrativa financiera de nuestro tiempo? En este debate con Gonzalo Cañete, de Brújula de Mercados, desmontamos sin fanatismos las grandes promesas de Bitcoin: la descentralización, la escasez, la protección frente a la inflación y su supuesto papel como “oro digital”. Porque la pregunta incómoda es evidente: si Bitcoin nació para sustituir a los bancos y permitir pagos entre particulares, ¿por qué casi nadie lo utiliza para comprar? ¿Por qué se comporta muchas veces como un activo de riesgo? ¿Y por qué los maximalistas que querían destruir a los gobiernos celebran ahora que Estados Unidos estudie acumularlo como reserva estratégica? Analizamos también: — La situación de Michael Saylor y el enorme riesgo asumido por Strategy. — La impresión masiva de dinero y la destrucción silenciosa del ahorro. — El declive del dólar y la desdolarización impulsada por China y los BRICS. — Las stablecoins como nuevo “criptodólar” estadounidense. — El avance de las CBDC y el peligro de un dinero completamente programable. — Bitcoin como posible vía de escape ante corralitos, sanciones y controles de capital. — La guerra entre oro, Bitcoin, deuda pública y monedas fiduciarias. — Por qué el sistema financiero actual se parece cada vez más a una casa en llamas. Bitcoin podría ser el agujero por el que escapar de esa casa. El problema es que nadie sabe todavía si al otro lado hay tierra firme… o cinco pisos de caída libre. Una conversación sin propaganda, sin maximalismo y sin arrodillarnos ante el relato de los bancos centrales.✅SIN CENSURA en SUBSTACK: https://substack.com/@magnatesladrillo✅¿Necesitas un PSI (Personal Shopper Inmobiliario) para acompañarte a invertir en bienes raíces en la Com.Madrid?: magnatesladrillo@gmail.com✅Si vas en serio «La Biblia del Magnate del Ladrillo» está AQUÍ✅

Bitcoin has just 4 weeks of Senate floor time before August recess to pass the Clarity Act — the bill that could unlock billions in sidelined institutional capital — and the political clock just got brutal. Trump is refusing to sign the housing bill (which carries the four-year CBDC ban) unless lawmakers approve a voter-ID bill, threatening the entire legislative track, while JPMorgan officially endorsed the Clarity Act today but loaded it with stablecoin restrictions designed to protect their deposit business. But the bull signals are stacking: DTCC's NSCC just went 24x5 (Wall Street catching up to crypto's 24/7 reality), and Fidelity outlined 5 catalysts that could end the bear market.

Bitcoin has recovered above $60,000 after briefly breaking below that key level, but Matt explains why the broader market still looks fragile. He breaks down Strategy losing its long-standing Bitcoin premium, SharpLink's continued Ethereum accumulation despite massive unrealized losses, another wave of crypto liquidations, and why the Clarity Act and CBDC legislation remain stuck in Washington's political gridlock.The episode also covers the Bank of England's softer approach to stablecoin regulation, Coinbase's Base network suffering another outage, and why Solana has emerged as one of the few bright spots during the recent selloff. Matt explains why regulators around the world appear to be embracing stablecoins rather than fighting them, and what that means for the future of digital finance.Finally, Matt shares his biggest takeaway of the day: Apple's sweeping price increases across its product lineup. He argues the move may be signaling that inflation remains stronger than official data suggests and asks whether rising bond yields, expensive stock valuations, persistent inflation, and weakening crypto markets are early signs that something larger is beginning to shift beneath the surface of the global economy.Happy Hodling, Everyone.

Bitcoin hit a two-week low at $61,877 (-3.9%) as a brutal AI tech selloff dragged risk assets globally: South Korea's KOSPI crashed 10%, Samsung and SK Hynix each cratered 12%, and SpaceX has now lost $600 BILLION across three trading days. Bloomberg is calling Bitcoin "tied at the hip" to the AI trade — the digital gold thesis is dying. Add Bank of America's bombshell call for THREE rate HIKES in 2026, the Senate passing a CBDC ban through 2030 in an 85-5 vote, and Jamie Dimon warning the bull market is a "little tsunami" — and today's setup is the cleanest macro inflection we've seen all month.

He explores what that level of wealth means in terms of influence, ownership, and market power, while reflecting on why investors continue pouring capital into AI and aerospace companies.On the crypto side, the episode covers BlackRock's new Bitcoin income fund, the launch of a privacy-focused institutional DeFi yield product on Ethereum, congressional efforts to block a U.S. CBDC, and growing stablecoin adoption in countries like Nigeria.

Nicholas Anthony (Research Fellow at the Cato Institute's Center for Monetary and Financial Alternatives) joins Host Ron Steslow to examine how the stablecoin legislation moving through Congress is quietly remaking the financial system and expanding the surveillance state in the process. They dig into the Bank Secrecy Act and the third-party doctrine, the legal architecture that lets the government access Americans' financial records without a warrant. Next, they examine how AI is turning mass financial surveillance from aspiration into operational reality, and how political designations can be weaponized against ordinary Americans through their banks. Then they unpack the contradictions in the Trump administration's posture—anti-CBDC in name, enthusiastically pro-stablecoin in practice—and why programmable private money is functionally a central bank digital currency at arm's length. Finally, they discuss the prosecutions of open-source developers behind privacy tools like Tornado Cash and Samurai Wallet, and what's at stake if the precedent that code is protected speech gets tested in the Supreme Court. In Politicology+, they unpack a 2021 federal mandate that will require every new car sold in America to passively monitor its driver for "impairment" by next year.
