***"We're entering the Bitcoin golden era with all the new technologies we're discovering because for the first decade Bitcoin was still very, at least for the first five, six years, there was so little capital in the industry that not a lot was getting built. Plus Bitcoin still had all these early on issues. Now we're getting to the moment where Bitcoin is extremely solid. It's a trillion dollar industry, right, or a trillion dollar asset. So I think we're just entering the golden era." ~ Gustavo Flores*** I sat down with Gustavo Flores, the CEO of Aureo, Mexico's Bitcoin platform, and this conversation went far beyond just building software. Gustavo actually left Canada for Mexico because of the intense COVID mandates. He recognized the red flags of government overreach early on and refused to stick around. But what he found in Mexico was a completely different beast. We talked about the harsh realities of building a Bitcoin company in a low-trust society where people are conditioned to expect scams. And yet, Gustavo and his team are building some of the most impressive tools I have seen. They figured out a way to route local fiat directly to a self-custodial Lightning address, without even the need of a middleman to hold your keys. It just works. We also talked about the heavy lifting required to run La Casa de Satoshi, a physical Bitcoin hub in Mexico City. It takes a severe amount of irrational optimism to be a founder in this space, but the effort is paying off. Plus, we got into the weeds on why Lightning development is actually moving faster than people think. If you assume the best era of Bitcoin development is already behind us, you need to hear this conversation.

Everyone Talks About the Bitcoin Halving - Almost Nobody Can Explain What It Actually Does to the PriceThe halving is one of the most talked about events in Bitcoin. Most people who've heard of it still can't explain what it actually is, what it does to miners, or why it has preceded a significant price increase every single time it has occurred.This episode fixes that in eight minutes.In this episode:What the halving actually is and why Satoshi built it into Bitcoin's code from the very beginning, including why the total supply of Bitcoin is fixed at 21 million and how the halving is the mechanism that gets us thereThe full history of all four halvings, the price at the time of each one, and what happened to the price in the 12 to 18 months that followed, including the most recent halving in April 2024 and the $126,000 peak that followed in October 2025Why the energy cost of mining creates a natural price floor that no other asset in the world has, and how that relationship between miner costs and Bitcoin price explains the pattern that repeats after every halvingThe next halving, when it is expected, what the reward drops to, and what the historical data suggests about the window that followsIf you know someone who keeps hearing the word halving and has no idea what it means, send them this one.If you've got questions and don't really have anyone to talk to about Bitcoin...-- Book a free call: [LINK] -- Follow Myles on Instagram: [LINK] -- Check My Personal Website: [LINK]Most people around you - family, friends, colleagues - don't really get it yet.

Are we treating Bitcoin like a dead asset or the revolutionary electronic cash system Satoshi intended? I sat down with Xiaohui Liu and Mate Tokay to discuss why the current ‘ossification' culture is a betrayal of Bitcoin's original potential. Right now, Bitcoin feels like a desolate place. We are witnessing a massive brain drain, with developers leaving because the culture has become obsessed with keeping the chain “frozen.” People treat it like a digital collectible, a shiny rock to lock in a custody wallet until the Fed crashes. That's not the vision. That's stagnation. We have settled for “digital gold” because we forgot how to use the money. The missing link is OP_CAT. This isn't new code. It was originally disabled by Satoshi himself before he left the building. It wasn't deleted. It's still there, waiting in the code, capable of restoration. It is the key to unlocking the “magic internet money” vibe we all felt in the early days. Restoring it honors the original white paper—a system for electronic cash, not just a store of value for ETFs. Xiaohui Liu dropped a truth bomb during our chat that should anger every Bitcoiner. He argued that Ethereum and thousands of other blockchains would not even exist had Bitcoin Core allowed Vitalik to build on Bitcoin Script originally. Think about that. We wouldn't need the altcoin casino if Bitcoin had remained programmable. We could have a one-chain future where programmability eliminates the need for Ethereum, Solana, and the rest of the crypto circus, consolidating value back into the Bitcoin we actually love. But we have a problem, and its name is Wall Street. Watch on: Odysee | YouTube | X | Rumble | Bitchute | Vigilante.tv The institutional adoption everyone cheers for is the very thing killing the innovation. ETFs and high-profile figures like Michael Saylor threaten to ossify the network completely. Saylor claims to run a development company, but let's be real: he doesn't understand the technical upgrades necessary for Bitcoin's future. He just wants a number to go up so he can buy more convertible debt. We need programmable money more than ever, not a centralized asset class for the same bankers we are trying to escape. The system won't fix itself. You can't wait for Core developers to solve the problems they created. It's time to stop settling for their narrative. You need to master your journey in the crypto space and look into solutions like the OP_CAT Layer before you get left with a hollowed-out version of what Satoshi built. We have to embrace the Bitcoin reality that requires active participation, not passive holding. This bifurcation in the crypto space is happening—are you going to follow the institutions or the code? Thankfully, you don't have to do this alone. Join us at The Crypto Vigilante and we'll help you see the writing on the wall. Follow me on X @VamosVigilante Want to be on the pulse of crypto?

What Is Austrian Economics - And Why Every Serious Bitcoin Holder Eventually Goes Down This Rabbit Hole (Part 2)In 1984 Friedrich Hayek said the only way to get sound money back was to introduce something governments can't stop by some sly roundabout way. Bitcoin's first block was mined 25 years later.Part 2 connects the 150 year old Austrian Economics tradition directly to Bitcoin how Satoshi's design choices map onto ideas that were written before his parents were born, why Bitcoin solves the one thing gold couldn't, and what understanding all of this changes about how serious holders think about the asset they're sitting on.If you haven't listened to Part 1 yet start there first.In this episode:Why Satoshi's design is Austrian Economics in code the Genesis Block headline, the P2P Foundation post, and why the cypherpunks who built Bitcoin had been reading Hayek and Rothbard for decades before the whitepaper was publishedWhy gold lost in 1971 and how Bitcoin fixes the one fatal flaw that allowed governments to capture it including Roosevelt's 1933 gold confiscation and what it means for self custody todayWhat the Austrian concept of time preference actually changes about how you hold Bitcoin not whether to hold it, but the mental framework that makes holding through 70% drops feel completely differentIf this landed hit Follow on Apple Podcasts.

Is El Salvador truly a Bitcoin paradise, or are banks winning the war? AsoBitcoin President Will Hernandez (@whbitcoin) reveals the truth about banking, taxes, and real estate.If El Salvador is the ultimate haven for financial freedom, why is it still an absolute nightmare for a Bitcoin company to open a simple savings account? There is a massive disconnect between political idealism and reality on the ground even though several years have passed since the historic bitcoin law entered into force. In this episode, Will Hernandez, President of the El Salvador Bitcoin Association (AsoBitcoin), joins us in the studio to pull back the curtain on what it actually takes to operate a business inside the first country to make Bitcoin an official legal tender.We tackle the legacy financial system because it represents the biggest battleground for business owners right now. Traditional Salvadoran banks are actively utilizing their legal right of refusal to lock out crypto startups, which proves that institutional hostility remains a major hurdle. To bypass this friction, we lay out a major three month challenge for the association to develop a sovereign tax framework alongside the government. If businesses can pay their corporate and payroll taxes entirely in Bitcoin via OTC intermediaries, entrepreneurs can finally opt out of the fiat system and achieve true corporate asset protection.International capital continues to flood into the country due to unprecedented corporate tax incentives. Will explains how international founders are completely restructuring their corporate balance sheets because El Salvador charges zero percent capital gains tax when you hold a digital asset in your corporate treasury. This unique tax exemption has triggered a massive boom in the local property market, and it has transformed the coastline into a global hotspot for real estate investment where buyers use specialized OTC desks to close deals entirely on a bitcoin standard.The grassroots movement is winning the long game through localized Bitcoin circular economies while legacy institutions stall. From surf towns like El Zonte to new tech hubs, communities are building a parallel economy where everyday users constantly refine the software UX. Will emphasizes that the next critical step involves structural education, and he is pushing the Ministry of Education to mandate Bitcoin literacy in private school curriculums so that the next generation natively understands sound money systems.El Salvador is already positioning itself for the next technological super-cycle by exploring the intersection of decentralized money and sovereign AI. The government is actively pushing its own officials to adopt these emerging technologies because it anticipates a future where autonomous AI agents use the Bitcoin network for automated machine-to-machine payments. This episode provides an unfiltered, boots-on-the-ground look at the triumphs, structural bottlenecks, and future of the ultimate macroeconomic experiment.If you enjoyed this episode and want to keep supporting open source freedom money, please make sure to subscribe to the channel, share this with a fellow Bitcoiner, and drop a comment below.

Now he's raising the stakes — the reverse carry trade unwind, Satoshi's wallets moving, a BlackRock XRP ETF, and a 30–50% stock market drop in a matter of days. He breaks down DAG's new Bitcoin fund backed by Fidelity, why quantum computing is Bitcoin's silent assassin, why XRP is still his only personal holding, and why AI agents transacting 24/7 on crypto rails will blow every GDP ceiling humanity has ever known.   This conversation goes places — Epstein, AI agents, insider trading in Congress, the tokenization of the stock market, and whether the global financial reset has already been scripted.   This is the conversation most people never get access to. Don't waste it.

Satoshi asked as he entered the lab.Ja: 彼の表情はいつものように真剣です。En: His expression was, as always, serious.Ja: 遙斗は困惑しつつも答えます。「まだ変数が多いですが、進めています。」En: Haruto, looking perplexed, replied, "There are still many variables, but we're making progress."Ja: 優木はそっと遙斗の側に立ち、「急ぐとリスクがあるよ、遙斗。でも、信じてる。」と静かに支援します。En: Yuki quietly stood by Haruto's side and offered support, "Rushing poses risks, but I believe in you, Haruto."Ja: だが、遙斗は実験を加速させることを決意しました。En: Yet, Haruto decided to accelerate the experiment.Ja: 彼の心には、成功を掴む強い信念があります。En: He held a strong belief in achieving success.Ja: 数日後、ついに実験はクライマックスに達します。En: A few days later, the experiment finally reached its climax.Ja: 装置が静かな音を立てて動き始め、遙斗は祈るように結果を見守ります。En: The equipment started moving with a soft sound, and Haruto watched the results prayerfully.Ja: すると、予期せぬ反応が起こり始めました。濃厚な緊張感が研究所内を包みます。En: Unexpected reactions began to occur, enveloping the laboratory in a tense atmosphere.Ja: 「制御不能なのか？」優木が叫びそうでしたが、遙斗は冷静さを保ちます。En: "Is it out of control?"

"Who's the founder of gold? We don't know." Adam Back explains why Bitcoin's missing founder is a feature, not a bug and why he thinks we may never learn who Satoshi really is. Along the way, the Blockstream CEO covers Bitcoin treasury companies, neobanks like River, and the incentive structure pulling individuals, companies, and governments toward Bitcoin.

The afternoon after Moldova qualified from Semi-Final 1 of Eurovision 2026, Satoshi joined us for an on-stage interview at the Eurofan House x Wiwibloggs. Satoshi discusses how he loved feeling the live energy on stage and why he chose the shaky camera movements. Aliona Moon tells us the back story of bringing her Eurovision 2013 dress back for this performance — and where she's stored it all of these years. And Lana tells us what it's like being such an incredible dancer and hype girl while also singing. 

In this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast, host Stewart Alsop sits down with software engineer and entrepreneur Arowolo Muritadhor for a wide-ranging conversation that moves from agriculture and manufacturing in Nigeria to the evolving role of crypto in the country's economy. They touch on how hyperinflation, particularly the naira's dramatic drop in 2023, pushed Nigerians toward stablecoins as a practical savings tool, and how informal kiosk networks have stepped in where traditional banking infrastructure falls short. The conversation also covers the tension between government regulation and the permissionless nature of blockchain technology, comparisons between the decline of the Roman Empire and current shifts in US economic dominance, the role of mobile payments in Africa, language learning, and whether AI agents have any real utility in crypto infrastructure yet. You can connect with Arowolo on LinkedIn and X at @armolas_06.Timestamps00:00 - Host welcomes Arowolo Muritadhor, introducing topics of software engineering and animal food production in Nigeria.05:00 - Discussion shifts to manufacturing, components assembly, and China's dominance in low-cost production globally.10:00 - Conversation explores crypto adoption in Nigeria as a network state phenomenon, separating informed users from mainstream population.15:00 - Mobile payments and kiosk ATM replacements emerge as critical financial infrastructure bridging unbanked Nigerians.20:00 - Roman Empire parallels drawn to modern crypto taxation, government control, and inevitable death-and-taxes reality.25:00 - Bitcoin and Ethereum permissionless nature debated against government wallet-level censorship vulnerabilities.30:00 - AI agents examined as crypto infrastructure tools, revealing mostly trading bots rather than foundational builders.35:00 - Nigeria's 2023 naira collapse compared to Argentina's hyperinflation, driving citizens toward stablecoin dollar savings.40:00 - US Treasury history unpacked through FDR gold confiscation and Nixon ending convertibility, paralleling empire decline.45:00 - Crypto reframed as anti-bank rather than purely anti-government, enabling freedom through immutable accountability.50:00 - Transparent blockchain ledgers discussed as potential government accountability tools across democracy, republic, and oligarchy structures.Key Insights1. Nigeria has a significant divide between its northern and southern regions in terms of economic activity. The north, centered around Abuja, is more agricultural with substantial cattle production, while Lagos in the south functions as a dense urban and commercial hub. This geographic and economic split shapes how different financial tools and technologies are adopted across the country.2. China's dominance in low-cost manufacturing has made it nearly impossible for countries like Nigeria, the United States, or Argentina to compete on price alone. The more realistic path for developing economies is to import components and focus on local assembly and creativity, which is where meaningful economic participation becomes possible.3. Crypto adoption in Nigeria accelerated dramatically around 2023 when the naira experienced a sharp devaluation against the US dollar. Before that point, saving in dollars was difficult for many Nigerians, especially those without formal bank accounts, making stablecoins like USDT an attractive and practical alternative for preserving wealth.4. Informal kiosk operators in Nigeria have organically become a substitute for ATMs, giving communities access to basic financial services where traditional banking infrastructure does not reach. This grassroots financial layer is now a key entry point for integrating crypto and stablecoin payments into everyday commerce.5. Governments are increasingly trying to regulate crypto at the wallet and centralized exchange level, using tax compliance as a primary mechanism. While Bitcoin and Ethereum remain largely permissionless, the practical chokepoints for most users remain centralized platforms where identity and transactions can be monitored.6. The historical parallel between the fall of the Roman Empire and current shifts in US economic and geopolitical power offers a useful frame for understanding why crypto matters. Just as Rome debased its currency and struggled to sustain imperial costs, the US faces mounting debt and a financialized economy that may accelerate dollar instability and push more people toward alternative stores of value.7. One genuinely constructive use case for blockchain beyond speculation is immutable accountability, particularly for public institutions and prediction markets. A transparent ledger that governments or officials voluntarily adopt could create verifiable records of decisions and promises, reducing corruption and increasing trust in ways that traditional governance structures have struggled to achieve.

Pav and Calum are back, and they are talking about some of the most confusing updates in the market. With Ted still missing in action, the boys are left in the studio to figure out why on earth Bitcoin is taking a dive while certain altcoins are absolutely throwing a party. In this episode, we are tackling the total shocker coming out of the Stellar Lumens camp, with XLM casually exploding 65% in just seven days on the back of institutional real-world asset hype. We are also unpacking an absolutely wild court case in the US where someone is trying to lay a legal claim to 3.8 million dormant Bitcoin, essentially trying to use old lost-and-found property laws to seize $85 billion worth of Satoshi's stash. Calum explains why traditional crypto ETFs are looking pretty weak right now, even though Hyperliquid and AI tokens completely ignore the gravity of the market and continue to pull vertical runs. Plus, Pav drops some essential, no-nonsense advice on how to actually invest and keep your head straight when the charts look completely chaotic. You'll hear:  ~ How XLM just woke up from a multi-year nap to post a massive 65% green candle ~ The $85 Billion Satoshi Lawsuit ~ Traditional fund flows are slowing down while decentralized protocols and AI treasuries are getting greedy ~ The AI infrastructure: Boom or Burst? ~ Pav's Survival Guide on how to position your portfolio and manage your emotions  … and much more!

Real talk: if you've ever felt powerless or trapped by the “way things are,” THIS half of the conversation might change your entire reality. I push Simon Dixon even further—how do the powers that be see the next phase? Why are countries like China and blocks like BRICS rising (and what does “multipolar world” even mean for the rest of us)? What about the average person—do we even stand a chance?We dive into the macro shifts happening under the surface—from America's last gasp of extraction, to how China leverages its own rules, to multipolarity in Africa, the Middle East, and beyond. But it's not just doom: Simon lays out the actual escape routes, from Bitcoin to local sovereignty, and the radical (surprisingly practical!) ways we can reclaim autonomy right now. Don't miss the Satoshi Nakamoto bombshell at the end—why Bitcoin may have started as an “op,” and why true self-custody is your ticket to freedom.

On Halloween 2008, while the global financial system was collapsing and banks were getting bailed out with taxpayer money, an anonymous figure posted a nine-page paper that would change everything. Two months later, Satoshi Nakamoto mined the first Bitcoin block and buried a newspaper headline inside it about bank bailouts - a permanent message encoded forever on every node on Earth. Then he mined over a million Bitcoin, watched it become worth over $100 billion, and never touched a single coin. This is the real origin story of Bitcoin, told the way it deserves to be told.

Could a New York court really declare 3.8 million dormant Bitcoin — including coins linked to Satoshi — as "abandoned property"? This week the Bitcoin Policy Institute team dissects an anonymous lawsuit built on an obscure lost-and-found statute, and explains why the legal theory is weak but the precedent could be devastating. Ken Egan, Zack Shapiro, and Zack Cohen also cover the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act (BRCA) after its Senate Banking Committee markup and the surprising opposition from sheriffs' associations.

He invented the proof-of-work system that made Bitcoin possible, was one of the last people Satoshi ever contacted, and now runs one of the most important infrastructure companies in the space. Adam Back sits down to explain why we're still in the early innings of institutional adoption, reveals what Blockstream is quietly building to protect Bitcoin from quantum computing, and shares why the recent wave of DeFi hacks and restaking collapses is exactly what the cypherpunks warned about from the beginning.

Richard Green is Director of Institutional and Ecosystem at Rootstock Labs, a core contributor to Rootstock, the Bitcoin sidechain that has been quietly running for eight years and now anchors a growing slice of institutional Bitcoin DeFi. Based in London, Green came to crypto through fifteen years in traditional finance — a decade at Bloomberg working with banks and high-frequency trading desks, followed by a stint at Circle building out the European stablecoin business — before going further down the Bitcoin rabbit hole when emerging-market clients made clear they wanted something more than a dollar wrapper. Why you should listen Green's central argument is that the digital gold narrative, while true, is incomplete and increasingly expensive to leave unchallenged. There is roughly $260 billion in Bitcoin sitting idle on corporate treasuries, ETF balance sheets and miner books, paying 10 to 50 basis points a year in custody fees and earning nothing. That, he says, is what pristine collateral looks like when it has nowhere productive to go. Rootstock's pitch is to change the denominator: keep the security model of Bitcoin, but give holders the ability to borrow against their stack, run it through tokenized real-world asset vaults, or deploy it into native yield strategies without selling a single satoshi. The first product out of the new institutional unit, launching in the next month, is a Bitcoin-collateralized loan aimed squarely at miners who are sitting on inventory but still need to pay the power bill. The proof points are no longer theoretical. Mercado Bitcoin recently deployed $20 million of tokenized private credit on Rootstock, with a $100 million target by April, giving Bitcoin holders Brazilian receivables and corporate debt exposure they would otherwise struggle to access. In Japan, where Green sees an unusually crypto-curious institutional base, Rootstock has partnered with Animoca Brands Japan to bring corporate treasury and BTCFi tooling to a market that historically follows rather than leads but is now reportedly seeing 80% of investors plan crypto allocations within the year. Midas, Hyperithm and other ecosystem builders are stacking institutional-grade vaults on top of the chain, with custody handled through the usual professional suspects — Fireblocks, Fordefi and Utila — and Green argues spreading risk across providers and protocols is the obvious lesson from a year of high-profile DeFi hacks. Where the conversation gets provocative is on what Bitcoin actually competes with. Green draws on Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan's framing of Bitcoin as an out-of-the-money call option on becoming a payment instrument, and argues that the real prize is the roughly half of global savings parked in fine art and real estate — illiquid stores of value that Bitcoin, once composable through chains like Rootstock, can simply do better. He is candid about the risks, too: concentration in a handful of ETFs and the dominance of Strategy as the largest non-Satoshi holder are not trivial, even if he thinks the diversification of providers is happening fast enough. His closing critique is one the institutional crowd will recognize — DeFi has an institutional-grade communications problem, and until protocols learn to handle incidents the way Circle handled its de-peg, the larger pools of capital will keep migrating to centralized custody.
