In episode 6 of the Bitcoin for Corporations Show, Pierre Rochard sits down with Alex Thorn, Head of Research at Galaxy Digital, for a wide-ranging and high-signal discussion on the emerging wave of Bitcoin treasury strategy companies.Thorn breaks down the mechanics of Strategy's (formerly MicroStrategy) success, the role of financial engineering, and how Michael Saylor created a model that's difficult—if not impossible—for others to replicate. He introduces the concept of a "great filter" facing the next generation of Bitcoin-focused public companies: only a few will pass through it.⭐ This episode of the Bitcoin for Corporations Show is sponsored by Ledn, a leading provider of Bitcoin-backed loans.
In this thought-provoking Market Mondays clip, the hosts Rashad Bilal, Ian Dunlap, and Troy Millings dive into the intersection of war, technology, and market resilience. They start by breaking down the “war index” — highlighting major players like Palantir, Anderil, OpenAI, Microsoft, and Meta — and reveal how data and algorithms are the new battlegrounds alongside traditional military might. Discover why having user data on 3.4 billion people gives Meta unprecendented influence, and how information (and propaganda) shape global conflict just as much as firepower.The conversation pivots to current geopolitical flashpoints, including Yemen's bold entry into the fray, the critical importance of waterways like the Strait of Hormuz, and the complex dance between America, Israel, Iran, China, and Russia. Does long-term regime change trigger more instability? Rashad explores lessons from history, the risks of forced changes, and what global players want for Iran's future.But it's not all global tension! The clip also covers how the markets respond to conflict, why “the market is literally rigged to stay up,” and tactical investment tips on stocks like Palantir and Meta, especially as they break new all-time highs.Crypto fans, this one's for you too—debate heats up over Bitcoin, Jack Dorsey versus Michael Saylor, and the ever-polarizing XRP. Rashad opens up about his fraught relationship with the XRP crowd and pushes Ian and Troy to weigh in: will XRP ever hit $10,000, or will institutional power always win out?Plus, hear exclusive details about Invest Fest, including a raffle for an all-expenses-paid trip to Ghana and special appearances from the likes of Jack Dorsey and past panelists like Cathie Wood.

As a special treat for the audience, Raoul has decided to rerelease this chat with Michael Saylor, executive chairman of MicroStrategy, from September of 2020. Despite its age, this chat is as relevant today as it was five years ago. Raoul and Michael discuss the history of Bitcoin, Michael's journey to adopting it on the balance sheet, why more companies should follow suit, and much more. Recorded on September 18, 2020.
Het positieve sentiment op de cryptomarkt lijkt terug te keren, mede doordat de spanningen tussen de VS, Israël en Iran zijn afgenomen. Bitcoin beweegt mee met de NASDAQ en profiteert van de trend waarbij grote bedrijven bitcoins aan hun balans toevoegen. Deze week werd bekend dat opnieuw een Amerikaanse partij voor meer dan een miljard dollar aan bitcoin wil aanschaffen. Dat sluit aan bij een bredere ontwikkeling waarin institutionele beleggers zich steviger positioneren in de cryptowereld. Opvallend is wel dat altcoins iets achterblijven. Die blijken gevoeliger voor periodes waarin beleggers risico mijden. In de Amerikaanse politiek blijft crypto onderwerp van gesprek. Donald Trump overweegt nu een presidentieel decreet om zogenoemd ‘debanking’ tegen te gaan. Daarmee doelt hij op het weigeren van bankdiensten aan sectoren die politiek of maatschappelijk omstreden zijn, zoals crypto, cannabis en bepaalde technologiebedrijven. Onder president Biden kreeg dit beleid de bijnaam 'Operation Chokepoint 2.0'. Eerst werd gedacht dat het om een complottheorie ging, maar inmiddels is duidelijk geworden dat veel ondernemers daadwerkelijk hinder ondervonden. Trump had in zijn verkiezing beloofd hiermee te breken, maar kwam er nog niet officieel aan toe. Toch is de vraag of zo’n decreet daadwerkelijk verandering brengt. Het lijkt vooral symbolisch. Sinds Trumps herverkiezing is de sfeer in de Amerikaanse zakenwereld merkbaar veranderd. Banken en techbedrijven lijken zich weer comfortabel te voelen bij het bedienen van crypto-ondernemers. De status van de sector is fundamenteel veranderd; crypto is inmiddels mainstream en wordt door de president zelf geprezen. Dat maakt het voor financiële instellingen lastiger om hun diensten te weigeren. Tegelijk blijft de afweging wie wel of geen klant mag zijn uiteindelijk aan commerciële bedrijven zelf. Verder kwam het crypto-wedplatform Polymarket in het nieuws door een nieuwe investeringsronde, waarmee het bedrijf een waardering van één miljard dollar kreeg. Op het platform kunnen gebruikers wedden op de uitkomst van allerlei gebeurtenissen, zoals verkiezingen of geopolitieke ontwikkelingen. Bij de vorige Amerikaanse presidentsverkiezingen bleek Polymarket er met zijn voorspellingen opvallend dichtbij te zitten. Toch draait het platform nog geen grote winsten. De inkomsten komen vooral uit transactiekosten, maar die zijn klein. De huidige strategie is vooral gericht op gebruikersgroei. Zo kan er inmiddels ook gewed worden op de uitslag van de Nederlandse verkiezingen in oktober, waarbij de PVV volgens de markt als favoriet geldt. De koers van Bitcoin beweegt op en neer, maar als je uitzoomt is de markt behoorlijk stabiel. Op dit moment noteert de munt rond de 104.000 dollar. De geopolitieke spanningen, vooral die tussen Israël en Iran, zorgen voor onzekerheid op financiële markten, maar drukken de koers niet structureel omlaag. Opvallend is dat beursgenoteerde bedrijven intussen gewoon blijven inkopen. Alleen deze week al werd er ruim 12.000 bitcoin toegevoegd aan balansen van bedrijven. Daarvan kwamen er 10.000 van Microstrategy, het bedrijf van Michael Saylor, dat inmiddels bijna 600.000 bitcoin bezit. Ook Donald Trump laat via zijn zakelijke vehikel naar verluidt binnenkort van zich horen met een mogelijke aankoop van 2,5 miljard dollar aan bitcoin. Deze week in de CryptocastEen nieuwe aflevering in onze Deep Dive serie. Dit keer behandelen we het onderwerp stablecoins van A tot Z. Want: die worden extreem veel gebruikt, voornamelijk door mensen op het zuidelijk halfrond.

Bitcoin daalde deze week tot onder de $100.000 maar maakte daarna een mooie sprong terug naar $108.000. In de marktupdate legt Bert uit wat dat betekent. Daarnaast hebben we het over de vragen van luisteraars en de avonturen van Bart in Praag. Wat vond hij van de talks van Jack Mallers en Michael Saylor? Peter heeft een bookmark gevonden waarin een Amerikaanse ambtenaar het heeft over een ‘accumulation plan'. Als laatste hebben we natuurlijk bullish nieuws: Texas heeft een SBR en bitcoin mag misschien dienen als onderpand voor een hypotheek in de VS.Probeer Bitcoin Alpha 2 weken gratis!Satoshi Radio wordt mede mogelijk gemaakt door: Amdax, Watson Law, HVK Stevens en onze hoofdsponsor Bitvavo.Timestamps(00:00:00) Welkom en Podcast Introductie(00:05:00) Bitcoin Praag: Jack Mallers zijn verhaal over 1971(00:26:00) Bookmark van Peter(00:32:00) Stablecoins: vloek of zegen?(00:42:00) Is bitcoin democratisch?(00:46:00) Is het verdwijnen van cash een symptoom van een verschuiving in het economisch stelsel?(00:49:30) Bookmark van Bert: het regent MICA vergunningen(01:07:00) De Bitkey hardware wallet: is het wat?(01:15:00) Bookmark van Peter: Bitcoin Hashrate drops 29%, coinciding with

In this episode, we dive deep into MicroStrategy—the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin—and explore how Michael Saylor transformed a declining software business into a leveraged Bitcoin vehicle. We look at the company’s aggressive BTC acquisition strategy, its use of convertible debt, and the growing risks tied to its outsized Bitcoin exposure. Then, we shift to Canada and break down the Telus International fiasco. What started as Canada’s largest tech IPO now risks becoming one of the biggest shareholder disappointments, as Telus attempts to buy it back at a fraction of its IPO value.

I am writing today's dispatch from Prague Airport, on my way back to Blighty.What a splendid city Prague is, and what a lovely bunch the Czechs are.It feels like this is still very much a high-trust society. Twice I left my bag in public places – full of very nickable laptop, passport and other gubbins – and both times I came back to find my bag untouched, but safely put to one side. At night the city felt safe. It was very clean – I actually started looking out for litter and I couldn't see any anywhere, whether in the centre or the suburbs, where I was staying. I always think litter – or lack thereof – is a good indicator of how much people really care about their surroundings, how loyal to and invested in their area they feel, and, indeed, how well brought up they are.The Czechs were lovely: polite, hard-working, respectful, full of ambition and drive, and good looking.The story is that Hitler went to university in Prague and loved the place that so much that, when the Nazis invaded in 1939, he ordered that the city should not be bombed but preserved. I heard the story last time I was here, and heard it again this time. But then I just fact-checked this story and apparently it is total rollocks - Hitler never went to university anywhere, nor did he visit Prague. Perhaps the city survived because the Czechs decided not put up any resistance, so the Nazis went unopposed, which meant they didn't need to bomb anything.In any case, the city is preserved and you can feel the history as you stroll about the stunning centre. It makes you cry for all the cities that did get flattened in WWII and the memories that disappeared with them.The food was lovely. So was the beer. I even had a couple. All in all, travel, board and lodging cost half of what they do in London, I'd say, at a guess.Just as I did last time I was here, I came away enamoured with the place, feeling that I must come back soon.As for the conference itself, BTC Prague, there were a few GenXers and Boomers – including my new friends Larry Lepard (check out his book), James Lavish (check out his fund) and George Bodine (check out his art) – as well as myself – but 85%+ of attendees were under 50, I'd say, with a large chunk under 30.If you are young, starting out and wondering what to do, I would urge you to get involved with the Bitcoin movement. There are so many different ways to do so, depending on where your talents, skills or interests lie. You can be artist, scientist or journalist, engineer, entrepreneur, traveller or surfer-dude. It really doesn't matter. You'll find a path that suits you. It all feels so dynamic and full of opportunity. It's brim full of doers. Everyone is so supportive. There is plenty of capital to invest. You can make quick progress.Another thing to note: there are a lot of extremely clever people in this movement. Average IQ levels in Bitcoin are, I've little doubt, much higher than you typically find elsewhere.Conversation, naturally, was dominated with talk of the bitcoin treasury companies, and the incredible price action we are seeing there. To use the baseball analogy, which innings of 9 are we in? I generally made the case that we are in perhaps 5 or 6, with Michael Saylor and MicroStrategy (NASDAQ:MSTR) in 2020 having been innings one. Some of the old-timers - who, it has to be said, have missed this particular wave - dismissed it as the ICO or DEFI craze of this cycle. They may have a point.But James Van Straten, the bright young mind behind the transformation of Coinsilium (AQUIS:COIN), told me in no uncertain terms that, as far as the UK is concerned, ball one of innings one has only just be thrown. There is £1.2 trillion of capital in UK pensions and ISAs and, thanks to the FCAs anti-bitcoin rulings, several years of pent-up demand. We shall see.What's different between this and ICO/DeFi madness is that the bitcoin treasury companies are holding something real and strong, while the narrative is only just getting going.People were very kind about my presentation, and I got asked to do a second one the following day, which I hurriedly wrote. I'll share both with you as soon as I get the vids, but my main arguments were:* With the changing nature of the global workforce, the rise of the gig and freelance worker, especially the digital nomad (billions of people will soon be on the move), demand for borderless money and portable wealth is inevitably going to grow.* Save strong currencies; spend weak ones.* By investing in bitcoin (the currency), you benefit from the cumulative, combined IQ of everyone involved in Bitcoin (the movement).* With such extraordinary potential, the risk is not so much owning bitcoin as not owning it.As you would expect from someone with my chequered past, I threw in lots of jokes as well.Join this amazing movement.But the main event was the Michael Saylor presentation on Saturday afternoon.My goodness me, the 60-year-old former aerospace engineer has become a rock star. He was mobbed. He stood there in the entrance hall, patiently smiling for 90 minutes, with a circle of people around him 10-deep, all wanting selfies. The frenzy did not relent, and eventually his bodyguards had to usher him away so he could prepare for his presentation.That same presentation will no doubt be doing the rounds on the internet over the next few days, and I urge you to watch it, but I will summarise his main points here.Saylor, his usual intense, charismatic self, first observed just how far bitcoin has come over the past 12 months. Up about 70%, it has, yet again, outperformed gold, bonds, stocks and real estate. The White House has said it wants to make the US the bitcoin capital of the world. The new US administration is extremely pro-bitcoin – he went through the key players one by one. With the ETFs and increasing institutional adoption, bitcoin is altogether more normalised and legit.He spoke about how he wished he had got involved in 2013, when he first heard about bitcoin, rather than in 2020, but he also made the point that bitcoin still only makes up less than 1% of global capital and that this share will inevitably grow. 99% of global capital doesn't know about it yet and so, even buying now, you're ahead of 99% of capital.Then he began to speak about where this growing monetary network is going. Bitcoin will continue to outperform stocks, gold, bonds and real estate, as it inevitably grows to occupy a larger slice of the global capital pie. Twenty-one years from now, it's going to be $21 million a coin, he said. There is, therefore, an opportunity to change the destiny of your family for generations to come. You create the future, he said.To deal with the drawdowns and the crypto winters, be like a seasick sailor: keep your eyes on the horizon. On the bigger picture. Saylor outlined several strategies to grow your bitcoin position and showed how rich each would make you in 21 years. The lowest-risk method is to dollar cost average (DCA) – buy a set amount each month and each year. But to increase your gains, use leverage. Use it wisely of course: keep interest payments low, fixed and long duration. Otherwise, you risk debt servitude and will end up with nothing.The principle is to borrow weak currencies, which lose value, and use the money to buy the strongest currency of the lot, which will inevitably gain in value. The gains you make will be extraordinary.I urge you to watch the presentation when it comes out, as he details the different strategies – and then shows the different outcomes.Using:* DCA* Leverage* DCA + leverage* In the case of companies, issuing stock to buy bitcoin* Issuing stock and using DCA + leverageIt will turn you into a total bitcoin head, I guarantee.But that's all for today.I'll be back mid-week with more commentary. I'm attending Swen Lorenz's Weird Sh1t Investing Conference on Tuesday so there will no doubt be lots of good ideas in there. I'll also update you on my conversation the day before yesterday with Eric Semler, Chairman of bitcoin treasury company, Semlar Scientific (NASDQ:SMLR). Semlar has been eclipsed in performance by the (once) smallcap UK bitcoin treasury companies - Smarter Web Company (AQUIS:SWC), Consillium (AQIS:COIN) and Helium Ventures (AQUIS:HEV.PL), but it is lower risk and better value given it is trading at the actual value of its bitcoin holdings and looks set to enjoy a decent run should bitcoin catch a bid.If you enjoyed this article, please like, share - all that stuff.

Reflecting on the Jordan Peterson podcast “What One Billionaire Knows About Outlasting a Dollar Collapse | Michael Saylor | EP 554”
De koers van Bitcoin beweegt op en neer, maar als je uitzoomt is de markt behoorlijk stabiel. Op dit moment noteert de munt rond de 104.000 dollar. De geopolitieke spanningen, vooral die tussen Israël en Iran, zorgen voor onzekerheid op financiële markten, maar drukken de koers niet structureel omlaag. Opvallend is dat beursgenoteerde bedrijven intussen gewoon blijven inkopen. Alleen deze week al werd er ruim 12.000 bitcoin toegevoegd aan balansen van bedrijven. Daarvan kwamen er 10.000 van Microstrategy, het bedrijf van Michael Saylor, dat inmiddels bijna 600.000 bitcoin bezit. Ook Donald Trump laat via zijn zakelijke vehikel naar verluidt binnenkort van zich horen met een mogelijke aankoop van 2,5 miljard dollar aan bitcoin. Het conflict tussen Israël en Iran verplaatst zich ook naar de cryptowereld. De Iraanse crypto-exchange Nobitex werd recentelijk gehackt, waarbij een schade van 81 miljoen dollar werd geleden. De aanval lijkt afkomstig van een groep met Israëlische wortels: 'Gonjeshke Darande' claimt de hack en noemt Nobitex een hulpmiddel van het Iraanse regime bij het financieren van terrorisme en het omzeilen van sancties. De groep heeft grote hoeveelheden tokens, waaronder 49 miljoen aan cryptodollars, verplaatst naar onbereikbare adressen en dreigt nu met het publiceren van interne documenten en broncode. Volgens Nobitex zelf zijn alleen minder beveiligde wallets getroffen, maar het incident laat zien hoe geopolitieke conflicten ook impact hebben op de cryptosector. In de Verenigde Staten lijkt de houding van de toezichthouder ten opzichte van crypto langzaam te verschuiven. De SEC overweegt een zogeheten ‘innovation exemption’ voor projecten binnen de gedecentraliseerde financiële sector. Daarmee zouden innovatieve platforms zoals Uniswap en Aave buiten het traditionele toezicht kunnen vallen, juist omdat te strenge regelgeving hun functioneren zou belemmeren. Een opmerkelijke wending, aangezien deze projecten een jaar geleden nog doelwit waren van mogelijke juridische stappen door dezelfde toezichthouder. Deze week in de CryptocastEen gesprek met Sten Reijers, over de Europese Digitale identiteit. Door een nieuwe wet gaan we daar eind 2026 écht iets van merken, en dit concept is voor een deel afgekeken bij crypto. Binnenkort heeft iedere Europeaan de optie om een eigen wallet met je identiteit te beheren en wij hebben het over de gevolgen daarvan. En de vraag is ook: gaan we dit geintje weer aan big tech overlaten, of lossen we dit op een andere manier op. Een keer niet over digitale muntjes, maar wel heel interessant! Co-host is Mauro Halve. Met Daniël Mol bespreken we elke week de stand van de cryptomarkt.

What if you were introduced to digital scarcity before bitcoin even existed? In this episode, we sit down with Anil Patel, author of The Bitcoin Handbook and creator of widely shared bitcoin graphics featured in Michael Saylor keynotes. Anil shares how selling concert tickets sparked his early understanding of scarcity, and how that insight shaped his approach to bitcoin. We discuss his take on bitcoin's future as a store of value, treasury asset, and sovereign protection tool, and why he believes bitcoin's price will rise forever. Anil unpacks his journey from pitching bitcoin to MBA classmates in 2013 to now building educational content that simplifies complex ideas. We explore the rise of bitcoin treasury companies, how centralized platforms differ from bitcoin's ethos, and the enduring value of reading and low time preference in a distracted world.SUPPORT THE PODCAST:→ Subscribe→ Leave a review→ Share the show with your friends and family→ Send us an email podcast@unchained.com→ Learn more about Unchained: https://unchained.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=TBF-podcast-description→ Book a free call with a bitcoin expert: https://unchained.com/consultation?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=TBF-podcast-description→ Read Joe Burnett's new report, Repricing the Economy in Bitcoin: https://www.unchained.com/go/repricing-the-economy-in-bitcoin?utm_campaign=strivereport&utm_medium=podcast&utm_source=tbf&utm_content=youtubeTIMESTAMPS:0:00 - Intro 1:09 - Anil's early digital scarcity insight from concert ticketing 5:12 - Why bitcoin will go up forever, according to Anil 12:07 - Building a personal and family bitcoin reserve 14:18 - Bitcoin treasury companies vacuuming up supply 16:17 - Pitching bitcoin to his MBA class in 2013 23:32 - Evolving bitcoin education and content creation 29:22 - Why early bitcoiners understood digital scarcity 32:16 - Sovereignty vs number go up—why both matter 40:16 - Mental models and heuristics to cut through noise 43:08 - Innovation is accelerating—so is bitcoin's upside WHERE TO FOLLOW US:→ Unchained X: https://twitter.com/unchained→ Unchained Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/unchainedcom → Unchained Newsletter: https://unchained.com/newsletter → Joe Burnett's Twitter: https://twitter.com/IIICapital→ Jose Burgos (Director of Media Production) on Twitter: https://x.com/DeFBeD→ Anil Patel's Twitter: https://x.com/anilsaidso

I have a friend — we'll call him Steve. Steve's a comedian — a very good one. He started around the same time as me, maybe a bit later. Back in the day, we all thought Steve was going to be a huge star. If there were any justice in the world, he would have been. But there isn't. We all know that. Steve ended up one of those many jobbing, circuit comedians, with a brilliant act — good enough to storm pretty much any room under any circumstances — but who never seemed to get beyond the circuit. There are plenty of unknown, but brilliant acts like Steve, believe me.Maybe he didn't have the right mindset — I don't know. If you want my opinion, I think he over-thought things. But what do I know?Steve was always interested in investing and, in his spare time (comedians have plenty of that) he began speculating with his earnings. Steve liked to do things properly, and investing was no different. He studied hard, researched, read loads, watched videos, listened to podcasts, scrutinised company reports and accounts, evaluated the fundamentals. He did everything you're supposed to do.It didn't work out. Steve lost money. Consistently. Bad choices dogged him.As Covid took hold in 2020, Steve took stock of his 20 years on the circuit. Where was he was in life? What he had achieved?Just as he never broke out of the circuit, Steve had never broken into the higher tax bracket either. Despite scrupulous and honest accounting, he had never once made it beyond the basic band. He had no property — which, for a man closing in on 50, was unimpressive. He had very little in the way of savings, even though he was frugal. No pension. The comedy circuit was already in recession. Now Covid had shut it down. Things were looking bleak.Then Steve started watching Michael Saylor videos.Michael Saylor is the billionaire genius Chairman of Strategy (NASDAQ:MSTR) who, amidst all the money printing during Covid, was trying to protect his corporate treasury from erosion by inflation. This led him to bitcoin, which he embraced. He became one of its most articulate proponents, while his company — which had been all but dormant, share-price-wise, for 20 years — suddenly took off like a rocket. He gave birth to the bitcoin treasury model that is becoming so widespread today.Everything Saylor said made sense to Steve. Not only that — it chimed with him. Bitcoin is stored energy. Investing in bitcoin is like buying Apple, Amazon, Google, or Facebook a decade ago. They're all dominant technology networks, so destined to grow. The more you obsess over timing the market, the more mistakes you make. The best strategy is to buy bitcoin and wait. It will have a market cap in the multi-trillions. All that stuff.Steve had known about bitcoin for many years. But he never invested. He bought shares in Lloyds instead.He changed tack. He decided he was going to do for himself what Saylor had done for Strategy.He began buying bitcoin with any spare cash he had. In his ISA, he bought Strategy.He started bitcoin wallets for his nephews, nieces, and godchildren and bought them small amounts of bitcoin on their birthdays and at Christmas.Something unlikely happened: Steve's investments started going up.By now he was obsessing over Michael Saylor videos. Watching and rewatching them. Finding old interviews and presentations and marvelling at the consistency of message — and Saylor's extraordinary gift for spotting and riding technological trends.“There's not a single interview that man has done that I haven't watched,” Steve told me the other day.Steve sold every stock he owned. He couldn't buy bitcoin through his broker — thanks, FCA — so he bought Strategy instead, then other bitcoin treasury companies, last year, including the amazing Metaplanet.Meanwhile, everything he earned he sent straight to an exchange and converted to bitcoin. Only the bare essentials he needed to cover that month's bills did he keep in fiat. Steve turned his entire personal operation into a bitcoin treasury.What's more, he didn't told anyone he'd done this. Except with me — because he knows I know and love bitcoin.He doesn't mind when bitcoin sells off — it just means he can buy more on the cheap. He thinks it is inevitable — because of its superior technology — that bitcoin becomes the world's dominant money system. That individuals, corporations and countries will store their capital in bitcoin, rather than fiat, so they do not suffer erosion by inflation (which is inevitable, because governments everywhere are incapable of reining in their spending — even with Elon Musk in charge).He just keeps on accumulating, keeps on watching Saylor vids, and keeps on keeping his head down.There are lots of people like Steve. I read about them every day. I just met a load out here at Freedom Fest in California.I'm headed to BTC Prague next week. I know I'll meet a load more there. (If you're in Prague, by the way, come say hi. And if you're thinking of going, you can get 10% off tickets using code FRISBY)I've said it before and I say it again, if you save in strong currencies, and spend in weak ones, you will change your social status — you don't have to earn a lot of money to do thatI saw Steve the other day. I've never seen him happier (except after he's just stormed a gig). Guess what? He's now in a position, just four years later, where he can buy a house. That's what his girlfriend wants him to do. How about that for a transformation.You really should subscribe to this amazing publication.Only problem is: that would mean selling some of his bitcoin.If only there were vehicles by which you could borrow against your bitcoin … That's the next chapter in this extraordinary story: borrow against your bitcoin, spend in fiat, keep the asset. Trouble is, if you're in the UK — you won't be able to. Because FCAThanks very much for reading this.

Bitcoin is sizzling this summer, surging back to $110,000 amid optimistic predictions from figures like Michael Saylor, who argues that crypto winter is permanently behind us. But is this bullish enthusiasm a sign of strength or a setup for disappointment? Meanwhile, the SEC hints at an upcoming wave of altcoin ETFs, led by Solana, suggesting a busy fall ahead. At the same time, Connecticut makes headlines by banning state-level crypto investments, signaling ongoing tension between crypto adopters and skeptics.

Listen to 115 The Future Now Show Podcast It appears, for us at least, that there is a resurgence of activity in the Virtual Reality space, specifically regarding the use of an app called, “VR Chat.” An excellent place to connect with others and have ‘chats,’ it’s also a fine app for creating virtual worlds that can be visited and shared. Armed with an invite from VR pioneer Greg Panos, we were in worlds for many hours this week, as part of a meetup of the “XR Explorer’s Club,” where we explored a couple of worlds together, as a group! We share our thoughts on this adventure this week. Sun, aka Mrs. Future, then gives us a report on her online with Adam Apollo, a futurist, speaker, and teacher who is involved in consciousness exploration, advanced technology, and the evolution of human potential. The biggest deal this week was the Bitcoin conference in Las Vegas, from which we feature some excerpts of keynote speakers, like Ross Ulbricht, founder of the controversial Silk Road service, recently out of prison. We also have a clip of Michael Saylor, billionaire executive and big Bitcoin advocate. Bobby and Sun share their bitcoin efforts, which you may find very helpful. And this week with end with a report from AI’s Larry and Mary on new research on astrocytes in the function of the human brain. Enjoy!
