This week on Sinica, a rare treat: an in-person recording from Beijing with two dear friends who happen to be two of the very best in the business on technology and China — Samm Sacks and Paul Triolo, fresh off the exhibition floor of the World Artificial Intelligence Conference in Shanghai. We dig into Xi Jinping's first in-person WAIC appearance and his most extensive statement on AI to date, the launch of the World AI Cooperation Organization, Moonshot's release of Kimi K3, the Trump administration's reported push to shut Chinese open-weight models out of the U.S. market, the coming age of agents, the untranslatable problem of ānquán, and what to expect from the first U.S.-China AI dialogue in September.8:51 – The view from the floor: heat, humidity, robot boxing grandmas, WeChat-gated free water, and the "AI+" vibe — why WAIC 2026 felt less like an AI conference than a sector-by-sector snapshot of China's entire economy being supercharged with AI, with attendance swelling to some 200,000 tickets16:32 – Why Xi showed up: what the leader's first in-person WAIC appearance and his most extensive AI statement to date signal, and why domestic drivers matter as much as geopolitics18:01 – Chapter and verse: which phrases from the speech will be put to work in the system — "secure and orderly development" and the governance of agents, and Xi's strikingly extensive language on AI safety after China was frozen out of the Paris process22:26 – The ānquán problem: one word meaning both "safety" and "security," the three buckets of AI risk, and how China's safety community has moved from bias and deepfakes toward CBRN and loss-of-control concerns — Black Mirror versus Star Trek28:14 – Shanghai's baby: how WAIC's ownership structure differs from the CAC-run World Internet Conference in Wuzhen, Chen Jining's very visible host duties, and whether the center of gravity in AI policy is shifting to the Yangtze River Delta30:05 – WAICO: what the new World AI Cooperation Organization with its 29 founding members is actually for, Xi's concrete deliverables for the Global South — 5,000 AI training slots, regional cooperation centers, the MAZU early-warning system — and healthy skepticism about follow-through34:39 – Kimi K3: what's technically significant in Moonshot's big new model, why it's the fourth arguably frontier-class Chinese release in a single month, the two-way traffic in distillation accusations, and what it all says about the state of the frontier gap four years into export controls40:33 – Washington reacts: the reported menu of options for shutting Chinese open-weight models out of the U.S. — entity listings, a draft executive order, supply-chain security authorities — and why none of the tools actually fit the problem49:36 – Strange bedfellows: David Sacks versus the "closed lab duopoly," the FUD strategy, why some 80% of Andreessen Horowitz portfolio companies reportedly run on Chinese open models, and how gating U.S. frontier models while Chinese weights flow freely supercharges the AI sovereignty argument worldwide54:55 – The model is infrastructure, the agent is the product: the ByteDance–ZTE agentic phone, the CAC's new initiative on agent trust and interoperability, and why agents fused into operating systems upend both super-app walled gardens and China's data protection regime1:02:27 – An exegesis of kěkòng: the many meanings of "controllable," the long history of ānquán kěkòng in Chinese tech policy, and the unanswered question of who — CAC, NDRC, or somebody new — actually owns AI safety in either system1:08:54 – The road to September: what to expect from the first U.S.-China AI dialogue, why Mythos tops the Chinese grievance list, the securitization feedback loop that starves trust-and-safety advocates of resources on both sides, and why recursive self-improvement makes this feel like a last, best chancePaying It ForwardPaul nominates Tony Peng, whose Substack RecodeChinaAI offers sharp, well-written analysis of the application side of China's AI industry — part of an impressive new generation of independent China tech writers. Samm gives a shout-out to Professor Zhu Yue of Tongji University Law School, published in Science and doing pioneering work at the intersection of disability law and AI law.RecommendationsSamm: The Land and Its People by David Sedaris — laugh-out-loud funny, especially the "Enough is Enough" chapter; Transcription by Ben Lerner, a perfect small novel about fathers, sons, memory, and technology as enabler or disabler of connection; and Didion and Babitz, on Joan Didion and Eve Babitz and the 1970s California rock scene.Paul: The Party's Interests Come First by Joseph Torigian — dense but beautifully written, and essential for understanding the current Chinese leadership.Kaiser: A fiction-only summer! Stoner by John Williams, a small life told most grandly in some of the most beautiful sentence-level writing anywhere; Gilead by Marilynne Robinson, an epistolary novel dense with distilled wisdom from a dying Iowa minister; and Wang Xiaobo's The Golden Age (黄金时代) in Yan Yan's excellent new translation — bawdy, hilarious, and super Beijing-y despite its Cultural Revolution setting.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What does it actually mean to be an older shooter? In this episode of the Guns Podcast, hosts Brent Wheat and Roy Huntington dive into a candid, humorous, and deeply philosophical discussion about the reality of aging in the shooting sports community. Inspired by a wave of less-than-supportive comments from younger shooters on Instagram, Brent and Roy reflect on the evolution of a shooter's mindset—from the arrogant "know-it-all" youth to a stage in life focused on wisdom, mentorship, and simply enjoying the journey.   They tackle everything from dealing with internet critics and "FUD" name-calling to the physical realities of aching knees, failing eyesight, and why they wouldn't trade their hard-earned experience for youth. Stick around until the end to hear what advice they would give their younger selves, and a few classic police war stories about the psychological art of directing traffic!   In this episode, we discuss: The generational divide between younger Instagram shooters and seasoned veterans.   How the motivation shifts from proving yourself to improving yourself.   Why older shooters are comfortable in their own skin and impervious to online hate.   What Brent and Roy would say to their younger selves if time travel existed.   A hilarious sneak peek into police traffic control stories.   What would you tell your younger self about shooting, gear, or life?

Über Nacht wurde das beste KI-Modell der Welt wieder vom Markt genommen: Anthropic musste Claude Fable 5 auf Anweisung des US-Kriegsministeriums sperren – und zwar gleich für alle Menschen außerhalb der USA. Wie konnte das passieren, was steckt dahinter, und was bedeutet das für Europa? Das besprechen heute im Podcast Jakob Steinschaden, Mitgründer von eustella und Trending Topics, und Clemens Wasner, CEO von EnliteAI und Vorsitzender von AI Austria.Die Themen:

In episode 324 of Absolute AppSec, co-hosts Ken Johnson and Seth Law share a mix of security model critiques. Starting with industry dynamics, Ken recaps his recent presentation at OWASP Nova regarding the limits of human-scale AppSec, recounting a dramatic storm during the talk where patio chairs pelted the high-rise glass. The conversation pivots sharply to Anthropic being forced to pull its "Fable" and "Mythos" cybersecurity models offline due to government sanctions and fears surrounding unpreventable universal jailbreaks. Ken and Seth criticize the company's disingenuous "FUD-based" marketing, which falsely suggested that AI could entirely replace security practitioners. Seth reviews his own blog post regarding the "three-week demo trap", detailing critical, ignored requirements for AI products—such as evaluation, statistical reproducibility, and token cost economics—noting that executing enterprise testing via frontier models can easily exceed $5,000 a day. Transitioning back to fundamental baseline defense, the hosts dissect an article on bypassing Visual Studio Code extension blocks. They emphasize that since modern CDNs pull zipped extensions from distinct domains, blocking the main marketplace URL is completely ineffective. Consequently, they advocate for rigorous data classification, layered on-premise model hosting, and stricter boundary controls on developer endpoints to combat fast-evolving supply chain threats.

Josh Swihart is the founder of ZODL: the Zcash Open Development Lab. Basically a for profit reincarnation of the old Electric Coin Company, which inherited the dev teams and projects. During his previous Bitcoin Takeover podcast appearance in November 2024 (S15 E62), Zcash was a struggling privacy project with very little support and a rather disappointing price action. In June 2026, Zcash is the rising star of the cryptocurrency market, with plans to scale to billions of users and ever-improving shielding technology. In this episode, we talk about the good, the bad, and the controversial moments in the recent history of Zcash... and why Bitcoin didn't activate Zerocash yet.

Recebi o Thiago Martins em casa pra um papo longo e sem roteiro. A gente passa por tudo: a época da MTV Brasil, a criação do Fudêncio e Seus Amigos, o impacto da inteligência artificial na animação e na publicidade, e o peso real de chegar aos 50 anos.No meio disso tem histórias de rave, LSD, ayahuasca, bastidores de TV e aquelas conversas que começam num tema e terminam em outro completamente diferente.E como é ao vivo, existe sempre a chance de a gente ignorar tudo isso e passar duas horas falando de qualquer outra coisa.Se você curte animação, bastidores e conversa sem filtro, esse episódio é pra você.

Anthropic is voluntarily briefing the Financial Stability Board on a frontier model they haven't released yet — which is either a responsible act of self-regulation or a preview of just how serious they think the risk is. In this episode, Jeremy and Jason break down what Mythos actually represents, why the chip and capital arms race has locked out the people who built the internet's early open infrastructure, and what happens when powerful AI tools get cloned and weaponized before the guardrails transfer. They also get into the AI that lives in a picture frame and talks like your dead relatives — and the smart toilet that will text your family if you haven't used the bathroom by 9am. If you've been trying to track where AI is actually heading versus where it's being pitched as heading, this is the episode.Key Moments00:00 — Anthropic voluntarily briefs the Financial Stability Board on an unreleased frontier model (Mythos)02:45 — Jason: once a model like this releases, the 3–6 month clone window starts — and clones don't have guardrails05:34 — The 90/10 split: 90% of US consumer spending comes from 10% of people — and AI is accelerating the gap06:33 — Why used RAM now costs more than a 2019 server — the chip arms race, explained from a garage network08:38 — State actors buying board seats in private AI companies: what happens when the government wants what you built14:03 — The FUD problem: why every attempt to understand AI gets buried in confusion and confirmation bias15:43 — The AI picture frame: a company called Vinabot lets you hang a photo of a dead relative and have a live conversation with it19:46 — Jason on digital identity: the version of you that gets uploaded is the masked version — not who you actually are26:06 — Jeremy: Claude is 'naturally' pushing back now — and it's brilliant and terrifying at the same time27:17 — VOVO's $5,000 smart toilet: biometric data, family notifications, and the insurance implications nobody wants to talk aboutGet more in our newsletter: https://brobotspodcast.substack.com/

"If you think of River or Gemini or Coinbase or whatever, think of all of those as silos and how people custody Bitcoin. If some sort of compromise were to come into the Bitcoin ecosystem at the private key generation level, that could create an incident that could set Bitcoin back by 10 or more years because it would be almost indistinguishable from a protocol compromise and that we would be talking about Bitcoin being hacked again and not individual custodians being hacked. So I think we need to decentralise how people do Bitcoin custody as much as possible and what better way by leveraging private freedom preserving open source software." ~ Seed In today's chat, I sat down with Seed, the creator of the SeedSigner project, and his backstory is completely wild. He told the story of how he got pulled into Bitcoin through a forensic case tied to a local Silk Road user, why he panic sold in 2017, and how that path eventually led him back to the basics and into building one of the most respected DIY signers in the space. But the real tension in this episode is the part most people skip over: what actually keeps your coins safe when things get messy in the real world. We talk about the grim reality of wrench attacks, what actually happens when law enforcement flips a house upside down with a search warrant, and how a former forensics cop secures his own wealth. If you think a standard hardware wallet hidden in a sock drawer is enough, hearing his threat models might completely rewrite your long-term storage plans. And yes, we got into a few stories that made me think about my own setup a lot differently.

Jeremy Rubin is the author of BIP 119 (OP_CTV, Check Template Verify) and co-author of BIP 348 (CSFS, Check Sig From Stack). More recently, he started working on Char: a decentralized shared sequencer for Bitcoin layer 2s. In this episode, which we recorded at the LayerTwo Labs booth during the Bitcoin 2026 conference in Las Vegas, we talk about the challenges involved in improving Bitcoin and why Jeremy chooses to be a relentless builder even in an adversarial environment.

Continua ad impazzare la quantum FUD. Il vincitore del Q-Day Prize ha violato una chiave a curva ellittica a 15 bit. Bitcoin è spacciato? Spolier: no.Inoltre: l'EU prova a mettere una pezza ai bug dell'app per la verifica dell'età con risultati tragicomici, due scritti seri sulla minaccia quantistica arrivano da MIT, perché riutilizzare due volte lo stesso indirizzo Bitcoin è rischioso nell'ipotesi di un attacco quantistico, l'esercito USA dichiara piubblicamente di avere un nodo Bitcoin, e un bellissimo nuovo docufilm si avvicina (forse) alle vere identità di Satoshi Nakamoto.It's showtime!

The "largest quantum attack on Bitcoin" just collapsed. Project Eleven paid 1 BTC for a 15-bit ECC break — but a classical computer does the same thing. Bitcoin's 256-bit security is untouched.A researcher won the Project Eleven Q-Day Prize for breaking a 15-bit elliptic curve key on a publicly accessible quantum computer, billed by the press as the "largest quantum attack on Bitcoin to date." Within 48 hours half the crypto press had it framed as Q-Day. The reality: a $300 laptop can break a 15-bit ECC key in well under a second. Bitcoin uses 256-bit ECC. The gap between 15 bits and 256 bits is roughly 2^241 — a number larger than the atoms in the observable universe. Q-Day is real as a research milestone. Q-Day is FUD as a Bitcoin threat headline today.On this episode we break down what Project Eleven actually proved, why the "1 BTC bounty" isn't what crypto media made it sound like, why Bitcoin's elliptic curve cryptography is nowhere close to being broken, and what's REALLY worth paying attention to this week — from the Litecoin MWEB 13-block reorg to the Bitcoin Core v30 wallet migration drama, the Bitcoin Knots vs. Core fork update, Shakepay's new BTC-backed loans, SEC Chair Atkins' "innovation" pivot, Kraken's 56 million IRS tax forms, and a $1.1 BILLION Canada Child Benefit story most Canadians missed this week. Plus, of course, Mark Carney's new wealth fund. What a time to be alive.

In this Crypto Town Hall, the panel breaks down Bitcoin's current consolidation in the high $70Ks after another rejection at $80K, strong ETF inflows led by BlackRock, and institutional momentum. They discuss the controversial Trump Meme Coin Gala and its potential to damage the Clarity Act while giving ammo to crypto critics. Other topics include MicroStrategy's massive BTC accumulation, quantum FUD, DeFi exploits, Bitcoin fork debates, and the key differences between Bitcoin's leaderless resilience and struggling altcoins like Cardano. The conversation also touches on founder fatigue, event fatigue with Bitcoin Conference Vegas, and why FUD remains a long-term buying opportunity for Bitcoin. Learn more about your ad choices.

Quantum computing risk, USDC vs. Tether drama after the Drift hack, and World Liberty Financial's governance circus take center stage as Haseeb, Tom, Tarun, and special guest Joshua Lim dissect market signals, institutional FUD, Trumpcoin shenanigans, and ask: is crypto VC dead or just getting started? Welcome to The Chopping Block — where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This week, the crew is joined by special guest Joshua Lim, Head of Derivatives at FalconX (and self-described Quantum FUD Whisperer). Ever wondered what happens when a quantum computer finally threatens public key cryptography? We break down the real and imagined risks of “Q Day,” what markets are actually pricing in, and why watching for Satoshi's coins moving is still the ultimate market panic trigger. Next up, the hosts tackle the messiest storyline in stablecoins: the massive Drift hack, North Korea's role, and the blame game between USDC and Tether. Is Circle's “wait for the court order” approach defensible, or are PR wins up for grabs for whoever moves fastest? We would never forget the crypto car crash that is World Liberty Financial: from drama-filled governance votes that magically extend lockups, to Justin Sun's redemption arc versus Trumpcoin, to whale-scale DeFi leverage that could nuke a protocol. It's a masterclass in governance theater and permissioned shenanigans. Finally, we level with all the “crypto venture is dead” crowd — who's still building, where the real capital is now, and why bear markets always demand an extra shot of conviction. From quantum nightmares to meme coin melodrama, let's get into it.

Karl Kreder, better known as Dr. K, is the architect of the Quai network: a layered blockchain stack which maximizes the power of proof of work to enable high transaction throughput. Similar in design with Peter Todd's idea of Tree Chains, Quai finds itself at the bleeding edge of cryptocurrency research: and might one day help scale Bitcoin too. Recently, Quai got listed on Kraken and appears to be gaining momentum. But the road to mainstream adoption and replacing banks is still long... Time stamps: 00:01:05 – Vlad introduces Dr. K, sponsors, and announces a Zcash giveaway. 00:02:36 – Quai's recent Kraken listing and its unique proof-of-work scaling approach. 00:03:03 – Vlad and Dr. K demonstrate sending and receiving Quai using the Blip Pay wallet to showcase the user experience. 00:10:06 – Dr. K explains Quai's block times, statistical and economic finality, and how its security compares to Bitcoin. 00:14:48 – Comparing Kaspa's approach and block sampling to Quai's work-sharing model 00:17:29 – Dr. K details how tokens are issued on Quai, merge mining with other chains, and the SOAP protocol. 00:20:43 – Why miners would mine Kwai, market equilibrium, and the concept of emissions neutrality. 00:22:55 – How Quai's merge mining differs from Monero's Qubic and its impact on other blockchain security models. 00:24:28 – The potential for other blockchains to migrate assets to Quai and the broader implications for Bitcoin. 00:28:20 – Gavin Andresen's article, the possibility of Bitcoin migration, and network incentive structures. 00:32:01 – How SOAP forces proof-of-work chains to compete on utility and efficiency in the market. 00:35:04 – Dr. K argues that proof-of-stake is unsuitable for money, using geopolitical examples to support his case. 00:38:11 – Quai's premine, coin distribution and fairness in the project. 00:41:04 – Quai's programmability, privacy features, energy dollar, and sharding scalability compared to Kaspa. 00:46:56 – Dr. K explains Kwai's dynamic sharding, hierarchical chain structure, and proof of entropy minima. 00:53:00 – Dr. K responds to accusations of Quai being a “Bitcoin affinity scam” and emphasizes the project's mission. 00:55:31 – Why Quai needs its own token and can't simply function as a Bitcoin L2, the need for reciprocal validation. 00:57:29 – Ethereum's move to proof-of-stake, the challenges of proof-of-work scaling, and Quai's unique approach. 00:59:39 – Dr. K announces the giveaway number and reveals the winner live. 01:02:18 – Dr. K reviews Cake Wallet 01:09:23 – Hardware requirements for running a Quai node compared to Bitcoin's requirements. 01:15:20 – Dr. K explains how archival nodes work in Quai, shard data redundancy, and miner incentives for data storage. 01:18:18 – Quai's privacy mechanisms and addresses potential threats from quantum computing. 01:25:02 – Dr. K's recent physics breakthrough related to unification and its implications for quantum computing. 01:55:36 – How Dr. K uses AI models like Claude and GPT for research, proof development, and coding tasks. 02:08:12 – AI's impact on code security, adversarial reviews, and the process of patching vulnerabilities. 02:25:25 – Dr. K explains his motivation for building scalable proof-of-work and the importance of sound money. 02:28:59 – Comparing crypto's scaling requirements to Visa/Mastercard: the need for speed, scale, and low cost. 02:32:51 – Why proof-of-work scaling is more challenging and less researched than proof-of-stake. 02:48:57 – Why simply increasing block size doesn't scale and how sharding addresses these technical limits. 02:52:32 – The lack of engagement from Bitcoin core developers and the counterintuitive design of Quai. 02:56:59 – Quai's use cases, including stable private money, EVM compatibility, and DeFi. 03:00:00 – Dr. K addresses criticisms about energy use, arguing for proof-of-work's security and economic efficiency. 03:09:14 – The best ways to try Quai: Tangem, Blip Pay, browser extensions, and exchanges. 03:26:08 – Criticisms of Quai, such as sharding FUD, security, and centralization risks. 03:37:21 – Future plans for Quai: upcoming exchange listings, new wallet features, and app wallet security. 03:43:02 – Vlad and Dr. K reflect on their academic backgrounds, discuss flaws in academia, and share closing thoughts.

Quantum computers are being hyped as the end of Bitcoin — but Bitcoin developers already solved this in 2024, and nobody's talking about it. The same institutions pushing the quantum threat narrative (Google, Coinbase, the Ethereum Foundation) have a direct financial incentive to make you doubt Bitcoin's security. Bitcoin's proof-of-work and elliptic curve cryptography are not just safe from today's quantum computers — the network is already on a roadmap to post-quantum cryptography before the threat is even real. This is the deep dive into quantum computing, Bitcoin's cryptographic architecture, and why the "Bitcoin is broken" headline is the biggest lie in tech right now. If you hold Bitcoin, self-custody your stack, and refuse to be manipulated by institutional FUD — this video is required watching.SPONSORS✅ Ledn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nmj1gs2i.com/9W598/9B9DM/?source_id=podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Simply Bitcoin clients get 0.25% off their first loanNeed liquidity without selling your Bitcoin?

Daniel Batten argues Bitcoin has largely blunted environmental FUD, but is now losing a broader narrative war and needs an “influence upgrade” to reach the next adoption cohorts He frames the problem as a sales and marketing gap where Bitcoiners often blame newcomers instead of meeting them where they are with better messaging and messengers Discussion highlights a survey showing key barriers are distrust, perceived immorality, and perceived uselessness rather than demographics or politics Daniel introduces a “hierarchy of newcomer needs” emphasizing safety, care, and alignment before education can land effectively Practical guidance: lead with listening, empathize with why someone believes common narratives, and avoid evangelism in favor of tailored education Examples of what works: ambassadors embedded in target communities (eg pension funds, charities) who understand internal processes and patiently navigate committees and objections Key takeaway on adoption dynamics: Bitcoin is both technology and asset, so adoption requires both visible usage (virality) and institutional-grade education to reduce perceived risk They discuss how catalytic events often come from targeted conversations with influential decision-makers (ETFs, corporate treasuries, political shifts), implying more can be “created” with better influence strategy News segment covers macro tariffs/legal angles, bottom-ish signals from on-chain/technical indicators, and pushback on simplistic “Jane Street manipulation” narratives Quantum computing fears are addressed via Yan Pritzker's thread: supply cap safe, risk concentrated in reused/exposed public keys, and migration paths like BIP-360 style upgrades ► For high-net-worth individuals and corporations seeking to build generational wealth with Bitcoin, Swan Private is your guide ✔ https://www.swanbitcoin.com/private?utm_campaign=private&utm_medium=sponsorship&utm_source=podcast&utm_content=swan_signal_live ► Secure your bright orange future with the Swan IRA today!

February ends with peak FUD. Ryan and David unpack why crypto is stuck in historic “Extreme Fear” even without a major blowup, and why markets feel like they've entered an uncertainty bubble. They break down the Supreme Court striking Trump's tariffs, Trump immediately finding new legal doors to bring them back, and the looming $150B+ refund fight. Then the “Citrini Crash”: AI doomer scenarios going viral, spooking stocks, and leaving investors terrified that AI will be either not good enough or far too good. Plus: fresh allegations that Jane Street helped accelerate Terra's collapse, Meta's stablecoin reboot for its billions of users, ZachXBT's Axiom insider trading exposé, Hyperliquid's new DC policy push, Robinhood's retail venture fund, Coinbase's 24/5 stocks rollout, and the Pentagon's ultimatum to Anthropic over AI guardrails. ---

In remarks recently published by Qiushi, the Chinese Communist Party's flagship journal used to convey policy intentions, Xi Jinping called for a “powerful currency” widely used in international trade, investment, and foreign-exchange markets. What's new about these remarks is not their intended ambition, but rather how clearly those ambitions are stated to the public. Xi paired this plan with calls for a stronger central bank, globally competitive financial institutions, and tighter control of systemic financial risks.

In this episode, the panel discusses bearish crypto sentiment, Bitcoin's sideways trading in the mid-60k range, and ongoing confusion between Bitcoin and altcoins/scams. They reflect on a heated Macro Monday debate, stress Bitcoin's unique hard-money properties, address PR/education challenges, institutional hurdles (quantum FUD, advisor views), institutional distrust amplified by Epstein files, stablecoin vs. Bitcoin tensions, and regulatory outlook (Clarity Act prospects). Despite widespread fear, many argue Bitcoin is quietly bottoming— a candid macro-crypto conversation on education, tribalism, and long-term potential.

Today we pause to look up and around and see what is going on in the abnormal world that most people consider normal.  We will look at government, the media and well meaning folks who think they are helping but are not.  Today we will take a look at practical solar farms, cartoon humor that is dark and accurate, Canada’s latest censorship, the socialist mayor trend, how voter ID would actually work vs. the democrat FUD and more. Today we discuss… A short cartoon that is incredibly dark due to how accurate it is – link Cities with socialist mayors … Continue reading →

In this lively Crypto Town Hall episode, the hosts and guests dive into Bitcoin's recent price action around $69K, debating whether the pullback from the 70s is healthy consolidation or signals more downside. Discussions cover Coinbase premium myths, ETF liquidity shifts, technical support levels like the 200-week MA, options-driven volatility, and aggressive trading vs. long-term DCA strategies. The conversation heats up with heated exchanges on market manipulation, leverage risks, Epstein-related FUD, quantum concerns, institutional trust erosion, and broader macro/geopolitical uncertainty—ending on a note that Bitcoin may serve as the ultimate trustless asset amid institutional chaos. A raw, unfiltered Monday morning crypto debate.

Marty sits down with James Check to discuss the current Bitcoin bear market, where on-chain data and mean reversion models suggest we're in the bottom fifth of the cycle, why capitulation is a necessary process, the quantum computing FUD, the role of gold as portfolio ballast, and why staying convicted through the storm is the only rational move if your decision tree says Bitcoin isn't dead.

Is Bitcoin quantum ready or is it just more FUD? We dive into the technical and social battles between developers and investors over the coming quantum threat, exploring the Factor 21 meme and the high-stakes game theory of post-quantum migration. Brandon Black, Alex Pruden, Nic Carter, and GG join us to talk about whether Bitcoin is prepared for the quantum era. We explore the technical divide between developers who see quantum as a distant concern and investors who fear an unaddressed existential risk. From the Factor 21 meme to the trade-offs of post-quantum signatures like Sphinx and SLH-DSA, we break down the spicy debate that could lead to Bitcoin's most heated internal battle yet and what it means for the future of the network.
