"Bitcoin is not physical gold. You can kill Bitcoin." Matthew Kratter — who runs Bitcoin University, did a PhD in literature under René Girard, and ran global macro at Peter Thiel's hedge fund — joins the show to explain why he now holds nearly everything he owns in Bitcoin, and why he's become one of the loudest voices warning that Bitcoin is under attack from the inside. We trace the improbable path first: from Girard's seminar table to growing Thiel's $50M Roth into a $2 billion fund, and the 20 years trading that taught him to spot financial engineering "traps" — the same TradFi tricks he says are now being smuggled back into Bitcoin. Then it turns to the civil war happening right now: how Bitcoin Core blew open OP_RETURN and "went rogue," why spam and CSAM are an existential risk to node runners, what BIP-110 actually does, and who really controls the network (hint: not the miners, devs, or exchanges). His thesis throughout — consensus flows from culture — and his answer to all of it: stop being a spectator, run a node, and mine from home. Subscribe so you never miss an episode.

Marty sits down with Vince Lanci to discuss his new book As Good as Gold, why the global financial system actually runs on collateral rather than currency, and how a quiet, controlled transition is underway from U.S. Treasuries to gold, Bitcoin, and a multipolar collateral framework.

Bitcoin funktioniert. Die Regeln sind klar, das Netzwerk läuft und seine fundamentalen Eigenschaften haben sich über Jahre bewährt. Doch warum bleibt die breite gesellschaftliche Akzeptanz trotzdem aus?In dieser Folge sprechen wir mit Dennis über den aktuellen Stand der Bitcoin-Adoption, die Herausforderungen unserer Gesellschaft im Umgang mit Eigenverantwortung und die Frage, ob Bitcoin seiner Zeit vielleicht einfach voraus ist.Gemeinsam werfen wir einen Blick auf die Entwicklungen der vergangenen Jahre, die Auswirkungen von ETFs und Finanzialisierung, die Rolle von Krisen als Katalysator und die Frage, woran wir erkennen werden, dass die Gesellschaft wirklich bereit für Bitcoin geworden ist. Am Ende ziehen Dennis und Chris ein recht persönliches Resümee. Themen dieser Folge:Warum Bitcoin technisch bereits bereit istDie gesellschaftlichen Hürden der AdoptionEigenverantwortung versus BequemlichkeitVertrauen in Institutionen oder Vertrauen in offene NetzwerkeBitcoin im Bärenmarkt: Was wirklich zähltDie Auswirkungen von ETFs und FinanzialisierungWelche Rolle Krisen für die Bitcoin-Adoption spielenEin Ausblick auf die nächsten zehn Jahre BitcoinVon und mit:- Dennis (d11n)- Chris⚡SHA256 (Cutting)- Chris⚡SHA256Hier könnt ihr uns eine Spende über Lightning da lassen: ⚡️nodesignal@getalby.comZusätzlich haben wir auch einen Silent Payment Link: sp1qq0a2rles9y32ffmj0eawvjglgqsgj7hq99ers580l98k42a7rh9szq3sa50fh2e5lwf22fxcjy0qw88u72vlj328qr39da245sq4nrskuqvvv5l4Neben dem Podcast findet ihr uns auch auf YouTubeFür Feedback und weitergehenden Diskussionen kommt gerne in die Telegramgruppe von Nodesignal und bewertet uns bei Spotify und Apple Podcasts, das hilft uns sehr.

Win Ko Ko Aung was born in Burma (Myanmar) in 1993 and grew up under military rule, shaped by a country still reeling from the 1987 overnight demonetization that wiped out his parents' generation's savings. A tech entrepreneur and youth educator, he entered the Bitcoin space in 2019 as a way to preserve economic energy in a country with few reliable financial options. When the 2021 military coup froze the bank accounts of activists and democracy supporters, including his own, his Bitcoin holdings remained untouchable and became his lifeline out of the country. He crossed the jungle from Burma into Thailand without a passport, eventually reaching the United States as a political refugee. Today he works at the Human Rights Foundation, where he has taken part in educating over 1,400 activists and journalists worldwide on Bitcoin, financial freedom, and privacy tools. Win shares how financial oppression operates as a weapon of authoritarian control and why Bitcoin is the most important human rights technology of the 21st century. → Please like, comment, share & follow — to help me beat the suppressing algo's.

Jason joins to discuss Tando, a Bitcoin payments app in Kenya that connects Lightning to M-PESA. We get into why M-PESA dominates Kenyan payments, how Tando lets Bitcoiners spend sats anywhere M-PESA is accepted, and why pragmatic fiat bridges help bootstrap real Bitcoin circular economies.

"Rehypothecation is cryptographically impossible." Martin Matejka joins the show to break down the rise of Bitcoin-native lending, Firefish's 3-of-3 multisig + DLC architecture, and why the February 6 stress test was the day Bitcoin-backed credit grew up. We discuss why rehypothecation can be engineered out rather than promised away, how Firefish thinks about LTV, margin-call cadence, and the three warnings before liquidation, and why $160 million in non-custodial loans across 27,000 users in 70 countries is the proof a Bitcoin-native lender can scale.

Trump and Bessent's $250 bill photo sums up the current moment, but under the surface the economy is tearing apart. AI stocks are ripping while credit card delinquencies hit 2008 levels.

Matt Cole spent fifteen years at CalPERS — the largest public pension fund in the U.S. — running more than $70 billion in global fixed income, where his portfolios reportedly never underperformed their benchmark in a single year. Today he's Chairman & CEO of Strive (Nasdaq: ASST), the first publicly traded asset-management Bitcoin treasury company — and the man who just made a security pay a dividend every single business day, the first time that's ever happened in U.S. market history. This is the structured-finance mind behind "digital credit" — the idea that you can split a perpetual Bitcoin position into two instruments: a low-volatility, yield-bearing preferred (SATA, now paying daily) and the amplified Bitcoin common stock underneath it. Matt explains why he calls digital credit the biggest story in Bitcoin, how a zero-debt balance sheet survives Bitcoin going "to one penny tomorrow," and why he's laser-focused on a thirty-year digital gold rush. If you've ever wondered what happens when a Wall Street fixed-income operator goes all-in on Bitcoin — this is it. We discuss: The first security in U.S. market history to pay a dividend every business day — and why "the dividend event is no longer an event" Digital credit as the biggest story in Bitcoin — attacking a $300 trillion TAM, where 1% is larger than Bitcoin's entire market cap today Zero debt and 18 months of dividend reserves — why "Bitcoin could go to one penny tomorrow and we don't blow up" Why Michael Saylor called Strive's SATA the most interesting story in Bitcoin right now "Bitcoin is hope" — the line that closes the show Subscribe so you never miss an episode.

According to Daily NK, the regime ordered local officials to stop street vendors from selling rice above a state-imposed ceiling. This action was in response to rice prices rising above 30,000 North Korean won ($33.33) per kilogram. Officials and undercover agents are now inspecting markets, checking sellers' account books, and confiscating rice from those accused of charging too much. Traders are responding by pulling rice from public stalls and selling it privately from homes or other hidden locations. For North Koreans, the state's actions make rice harder to find and more expensive.

State welfare cardholders will receive 1,000 baht per month automatically, while 30 million others can register through the Pao Tang app for a 60/40 co-payment benefit worth up to 4,000 baht over four months. The funds can only be used at participating merchants between 6 am and 11 pm through the state-linked wallet app, and cash withdrawals are prohibited. The program may help households facing surging fuel and living costs, but it also deepens reliance on government-controlled digital payment infrastructure. When economic relief is tied to identification, apps, spending rules, and approved merchants, support can quickly become another layer of state control.

Pri krste mojej novej knihy Krotitelia entropie ma organizátor konferencie CryptoByte Dušan poprosil aj o prednášku o tom, ako som pri jej tvorbe používal AI. Spravil som to ale úplne inak, než si pravdepodobne predstavoval — žiadny prompt engineering, žiadne triky, ako prinútiť AI napísať za vás knihu. Volá sa to Ako uloviť memetického ducha a je o tom, prečo má zmysel chcieť od modelu niečo, čo v jeho tréningových dátach nikdy nebolo. V intre vám poviem aj o samotnej knižke — prečo som ju napísal, čo obsahuje a prečo verím, že úplne najlepším výsledkom nebude, že sa bude páčiť vám, ale že sa jej mémbionty dostanú do váh budúcich AI modelov a prežijú skok z vašich hláv do kremíkového vedomia.

While US and Chinese leaders exchanged niceties in Beijing, bond markets were selling off hard. Thirty-year Treasury yields hit their highest level since 2007, inflation prints came in hot, and the Strait of Hormuz started looking like a live test of Bitcoin as money for enemies.

Jeff Casler and Angelo Firenze don't run a Bitcoin conference. They run a Bitcoin camp. Jeff is a serial entrepreneur and MS survivor — co-founder of Camp Nakamoto and @btc_mass, with a thesis-forward "why this matters" voice. Angelo grew up on Sandy Island. He spent decades as director of the original family camp the property was built around — and now runs the Bitcoin version of the same idea. Every summer, the Bitcoin world boards another plane to another conference. And every summer, some of us come home wondering if we actually made a single real connection. This is the conversation about what happens when someone looks at that and decides to build the inverse — four days on a 66-acre private island in Lake Winnipesaukee, New Hampshire. Cabins. Campfires. All-inclusive meals including the Cattleman's Feast. A speaker series that doesn't feel like a speaker series because you're sitting with the speakers at dinner. June 18-21, 2026. I'm speaking there — and I said yes because I believe in what they're building. Their thesis is simple: the typical Bitcoin conference is great for introducing ideas. Camp Nakamoto is great for integrating them. You don't have five minutes after a keynote to ask your question — you have 72 hours. Larry Lapard, Tom Luongo, Efrat Fenigson, Joe Consorti aren't in a green room. They're at breakfast. Around the campfire at sunset. In the cornhole tournament. As Angelo puts it: the whole thing is the lobby. We also get the "last boat" moment — what Angelo realized after the first event in 2025, why he didn't believe it would work until the last ferry pulled away. The 2026 speaker lineup including Tom Luongo, Ben Justman, Efrat Fenigson, Joe Consorti, Seb Bunny, Luke Broyles, Anders Jensen, Matthew Lysiak, Kevin McKernan, Haley Lennon, Brandon Gentile, Beau Turner, Kyle Huber — plus Ainsley Costello playing live. The Cattleman's Feast partnership with Texas Slim's Beef Initiative. And the family case: why parents on the island let their kids run free in a way you don't see in modern society anymore. If you've ever wondered what the post-orange-pill phase actually looks like in person — not on Twitter, not in a conference hallway, but around a campfire with people who showed up for the same reason you did — this is the conversation. We discuss: Introduce vs. integrate — why ideas land differently when you have 72 hours with the speaker instead of five minutes after a keynote, and Angelo's design principle that "the whole thing is the lobby" The "last boat" moment — Angelo's emotional origin moment from the first event in 2025, why he didn't believe it would work until the last ferry pulled away, and what it taught him about the difference between selling tickets and building community The Cattleman's Feast — Texas Slim's Beef Initiative partnership, the grass-fed high-omega-3 steak that made attendees say "the best I've ever had," Peony Lane Bitcoin wine pairing, and why food became one of the strongest brand moments of the first event Kids running free — what happens to parenting when an island full of Bitcoiners decides to let their children explore, why it feels like 1950s parenting in the best possible way, and the case for bringing your family Why community in 2026 matters more than ever — Jeff and Angelo's "we need our peeps" thesis, the move from talking the talk to living the life, and what real-life Bitcoin community looks like after the orange pill metabolizes Subscribe so you never miss an episode.

Hermann Buhr Vivier of Bitcoin Ekasi and Carel Van Wyk of MoneyBadger join for an emergency dispatch on South Africa's proposed Bitcoin restrictions. We get into draft exchange control rules that would bring Bitcoin under a harsh regulatory framework, including forced disclosure of private keys, undefined transaction thresholds, limits on peer-to-peer commerce, mandatory use of centralized crypto service providers, and potential forfeiture. Then we discuss why South Africa's grassroots Bitcoin adoption matters globally, how MoneyBadger and Bitcoin Ekasi helped build real circular economy usage, and what Bitcoiners can do to push back through public comments, legal challenges, donations, and awareness.Property Rights Defense Group: https://propertyrightsdefense.orgPRDG on X: https://x.com/PRDG_ZABitcoin Ekasi: https://bitcoinekasi.com/Bitcoin Ekasi on X: https://x.com/BitcoinEkasi Bitcoin Ekasi on Nostr: https://primal.net/bitcoinekasi MoneyBadger: https://x.com/MoneyBadgerPayMoneyBadger on X: https://x.com/MoneyBadgerPayMoneyBadger on Nostr: https://primal.net/p/nprofile1qqsz85k206vm3vqdmlvcy9l4kyfqchlnf4hnctasxufa3ph0ck9decgpk49rf EPISODE: 203BLOCK: 949535PRICE: 1264 sats per dollarmore info on the show: https://citadeldispatch.comlearn more about me: https://odell.xyzmonitor the situation: https://citadelwire.comten31: https://ten31.xyzopensats: https://opensats.org

Eugene Jarecki joins to discuss his new Julian Assange documentary The Six Billion Dollar Man, filmed over seven years across 15 countries under high security conditions. We get into WikiLeaks as a breakthrough for whistleblowers, Bitcoin's early role in keeping WikiLeaks alive after Visa, Mastercard, and PayPal cut it off, and why Assange's story remains central to freedom of information. Then we go deep on the broken state of film distribution, why legacy media and streamers will not touch the film, Jack Dorsey's idea to release it through Bitcoiners first, and the experiment to make Bitcoin supporters official producers of the film before a wider release.The Six Billion Dollar Man: https://thesixbilliondollarman.comEugene on Nostr: https://primal.net/eugeneEPISODE: 202BLOCK: 949106PRICE: 1249 sats per dollarmore info on the show: https://citadeldispatch.comlearn more about me: https://odell.xyzmonitor the situation: https://citadelwire.comten31: https://ten31.xyzopensats: https://opensats.org

Bram Kanstein returns to The Bitcoin Matrix. He's spent over three thousand hours studying money. He hosts Bitcoin for Millennials — now expanding into Freedom for Millennials — and writes essays connecting fiat money to consciousness, attention, and the design of modern life. This conversation picks up where his first appearance left off. Once you've truly understood Bitcoin — what comes next? Bram's answer is that the orange pill is just the entry point. The real work is what happens after: noticing the bandwidth tax that costs you 13 IQ points before you've even started thinking, recognizing Bitcoin as "engineered truth" — the only economic anchor we can verify is the same in both our heads — and naming the spiritual crime of a money system designed to keep your attention off the things that actually matter. He's also organizing a Bitcoin-and-psychedelics gathering in Colorado, has just published Bitcoin for Millennials (his book, built from his first 100 episodes), and brings Michelangelo's Florence — 279 years under hard money — into the room as evidence for what humans build when the unit of account doesn't betray them. If you've ever wondered why everyone around you who saw the same chart didn't see the same world — this is the conversation to send them. We discuss: The bandwidth tax — Mullainathan & Shafir's research showing financial worry costs you ~13 IQ points before you've even started thinking, and how fiat is engineered to keep that tax running Bitcoin as an economic psychedelic (Yoni Appleberg's frame) — the dissolution of inherited financial assumptions and what comes back online once the orange pill metabolizes Bitcoin as engineered truth — the orange shirt thought experiment, the map-and-territory problem, and why a verifiable monetary anchor changes consciousness, not just portfolios Michelangelo, the Medici, and the Florin — what 279 years of hard money built, and what our era can't, in Bram's reading of why long-arc human work has collapsed into the bandwidth tax economy Subscribe so you never miss an episode. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━

China's teapot refiners are bleeding, Intel is going vertical on reshoring headlines, and AI benchmark scores are leaving the charts as Trump meets with Xi this week. Three vertical charts tell the story of US leverage across energy, chips, and capital markets, why the AGI buildout is driving industrial policy, and what it means for a labor market already showing cracks. No matter which scenario plays out, the path keeps leading back to the asset with no supply response.
