Rob Warren is Head of Research and Education at Bitcoin Park and the author of The Bitcoin Miners Almanac. He brings a unique ability to explain the economic incentives of bitcoin mining in a way that makes sense across industries and expertise. In this episode, Rob joins The Bitcoin Frontier to share how bitcoin's incentive structure creates resilience, why mining is misunderstood but critical, and how energy markets and bitcoin naturally align. We dig into the history of mining and the difficulty adjustment, the realities of mining pools and decentralization, and the surprising ways bitcoin miners are accelerating global electrification.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=you... → Book a free call with a bitcoin expert: https://unchained.com/consultation?ut...TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 – Intro & Rob's role at Bitcoin Park 2:30 – From home mining experiments to Riot Platforms and Bitcoin Park 5:00 – Why Rob wrote The Bitcoin Miners Almanac 8:10 – The three essentials of mining: energy, cooling, and connectivity 9:30 – The brilliance of the difficulty adjustment 13:00 – Satoshi's hard cap and why it broke economic orthodoxy 20:30 – How incentives keep miners aligned, even without ideology 24:00 – The “security budget” debate and what it misses 29:00 – Mining economics: liabilities, waste energy, and heat as an asset 31:00 – Flare gas, hydro, and turning liabilities into profitable inputs 37:00 – Gridless and bitcoin's role in electrifying rural Africa 43:00 – AI superclusters and their overlap with bitcoin mining 49:00 – The history of mining pools and how Slush solved variance 56:00 – Difficulty, shares, and how pools account for work 1:02:00 – Centralization risks, hidden white-labeling, and Ocean's model 1:11:00 – Bitcoin's anti-fragility and the long-tail theory 1:18:00 – Adoption as a 140-year game, not a 5-year scheme 1:21:40 – Where to find Rob and upcoming Bitcoin Park summitsWHERE TO FOLLOW US: → Unchained X: / unchained → Unchained LinkedIn: / unchainedcom → Unchained Newsletter: https://unchained.com/newsletter → Rob Warren's Twitter: https://x.com/BikesandBitcoin → Timot Lamarre's Twitter: https://x.com/TimotLamarre

After a week of $NAT tokens being allocated to Bitcoin miners, we take a closer look at the longer-term implications and explore potential scenarios where $NAT plays a pivotal role in the sustainability of mining operations. We analyze which miners have accumulated the most tokens and, by projecting across different market cap brackets, estimate the weekly value being accrued. This exercise aims to highlight how $NAT can fulfill its long-term mission once market forces drive its token value significantly higher than it is today. We also discuss the responsibilities and roles as the founders going forward, now that the technical framework for $NAT as Bitcoin's new subsidy reward token has been established, drawing parallels with Satoshi's early efforts in galvanizing community support for the movement and successful propagation of the ideals behind Bitcoin. In our view, there are still several key tasks ahead, such as deploying infrastructure primitives that will facilitate more liquid trading environments for $NAT and the creation of sustainable DeFi networks that can leverage the DMT ecosystem. Additionally, $NAT needs a substantial amount of educational content to clarify its mission and the broader goals of the DMT ecosystem. With a target market cap of $1 billion, which we believe is achievable, we are confident that these challenges will be addressed by the community, ensuring the ecosystem's resilience and long-term growth.

On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop sits down with Abhimanyu Dayal, a longtime Bitcoin advocate and AI practitioner, to explore how money, identity, and power are shifting in a world of deepfakes, surveillance, automation, and geopolitical realignment. The conversation ranges from why self-custody of Bitcoin matters more than ETFs, to the dangers of probabilistic biometrics and face-swap apps, to the coming impact of AGI on labor markets and the role of universal basic income. They also touch on India's refinery economy, its balancing act between Russia, China, and the U.S., and how soft power is eroding in the information age. For more from Abhimanyu, connect with him on LinkedIn.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart Alsop opens with Abhimanyu Dayal on crypto, AI, and the risks of probabilistic biometrics like facial recognition and voice spoofing.05:00 They critique biometric surveillance, face-swap apps, and data exploitation through casual consent.10:00 The talk shifts to QR code treasure hunts, vibe coding on Replit and Claude, and using quizzes to mint NFTs.15:00 Abhimanyu shares his finance background, tying it to Bitcoin as people's money, agent-to-agent payments, and post-AGI labor shifts.20:00 They discuss universal basic income, libertarian ideals, Hayek's view of economics as critique, and how AI prediction changes policy.25:00 Pressure, unpredictability, AR glasses, quantum computing, and the surveillance state future come into focus.30:00 Open source vs closed apps, China's DeepSeek models, propaganda through AI, and U.S.–China tensions are explored.35:00 India's non-alignment, Soviet alliance in 1971, oil refining economy, and U.S.–India friction surface.40:00 They reflect on colonial history, East India Company, wealth drain, opium wars, and America's rise on Indian capital.45:00 The conversation closes on Bitcoin's role as reserve asset, stablecoins as U.S. leverage, BRICS disunity, and the geopolitics of freedom.Key InsightsA central theme of the conversation is the contrast between deterministic and probabilistic systems for identity and security. Abhimanyu Dayal stresses that passwords and private keys—things only you can know—are inherently more secure than facial recognition or voice scans, which can be spoofed through deepfakes, 3D prints, or AI reconstructions. In his view, biometric data should never be stored because it represents a permanent risk once leaked.The rise of face-swap apps and casual facial data sharing illustrates how surveillance and exploitation have crept into everyday life. Abhimanyu points out that companies already use online images to adjust things like insurance premiums, proving how small pieces of biometric consent can spiral into systemic manipulation. This isn't a hypothetical future—it is already happening in hidden ways.On the lighter side, they experiment with “vibe coding,” using tools like Replit and Claude to design interactive experiences such as a treasure hunt via QR codes and NFTs. This playful example underscores a broader point: lightweight coding and AI platforms empower individuals to create experiments without relying on centralized or closed systems that might inject malware or capture data.The discussion expands into automation, multi-agent systems, and the post-AGI economy. Abhimanyu suggests that artificial superintelligence will require machine-to-machine transactions, making Bitcoin an essential tool. But if machines do the bulk of labor, universal basic income may become unavoidable, even if it drifts toward collectivist structures libertarians dislike.A key shift identified is the transformation of economics itself. Where Hayek once argued economics should critique politicians because of limited data, AI and quantum computing now provide prediction capabilities so granular that human behavior is forecastable at the individual level. This erodes the pseudoscientific nature of past economics and creates a new landscape of policy and control.Geopolitically, the episode explores India's rise, its reliance on refining Russian crude into petroleum exports, and its effort to stay unaligned between the U.S., Russia, and China. The conversation recalls India's Soviet ties during the 1971 war, while noting how today's energy and trade policies underpin domestic improvements for India's poor and middle class.Finally, they critique the co-optation of Bitcoin through ETFs and institutional custody. While investors celebrate, Abhimanyu argues this betrays Satoshi's vision of money controlled by individuals with private keys. He warns that Bitcoin may be absorbed into central bank reserves, while stablecoins extend U.S. monetary dominance by reinforcing dollar power rather than replacing it.

En inventant le Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto n'a pas seulement créé la cryptomonnaie. Il a proposé une véritable philosophie qui nous invite à reconsidérer notre rapport à la vie privée et au pouvoir. À l'ère numérique, peut-il exister un pouvoir sans chef, un pouvoir distribué ? Peut-être, à condition de repenser le concept de "confiance", pour passer d'une confiance aveugle à une confiance critique.➔ Regardez la version vidéo de cet épisode : https://youtu.be/mX1QXvJjKWA➔ Rejoignez-moi sur Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/ParoledephilosopheMembre du Label Tout Savoir.

Yirmibir Bitcoin Podcast'in "Bitcoin ve İslam" serisinin "Bitcoin Only" serisinin 3. bölümüne hoş geldiniz [Başlangıç talimatı].Bu bölümde, Bitcoin dışındaki kripto para birimlerinin karşı karşıya olduğu etik sorunlara odaklanıyoruz. Genellikle göz ardı edilen bu problemler, yeni bir kripto projenin başlangıcında paraların nasıl dağıtıldığı ve kurucuların para politikası üzerindeki kontrolü etrafında yoğunlaşıyor. Hedef riba sorununu çözmekse, az sayıda kişiyi başkaları aleyhine haksız yere zenginleştiren bir alternatif yaratmak çelişkili olacaktır.Birçok kripto projesi, Bitcoin'in sınırlamalarını aşma iddiasıyla bir kurucu ekibiyle başlıyor. "Airdrop"lar ve "tokenomik"ler gibi dağıtım stratejileriyle, kuruculara, geliştiricilere ve erken yatırımcılara çok sayıda coin tahsis edilir. Geleneksel finanstan esinlenen İlk Coin Arzları (ICO'lar), şirketlerin dijital token satarak fon toplamasını sağlar. Ancak ICO'lar, yatırımcılara anlamlı güvenceler sunmadan yüksek riskli token'lar satarak düzenleyici boşlukları sömürür. Michael Flaxman'ın belirttiği gibi, ICO'larda likidasyon tercihleri veya uzun vadeli hak ediş programları gibi standart yatırımcı korumaları yoktur. Bu yapı, projenin terk edilmesiyle perakende yatırımcıları değersiz token'larla bırakan ahlaki tehlikeler yaratır ve dolandırıcıları cezbeder.Son yıllarda "meme coin"ler gibi daha nihilizm içeren trendler ortaya çıktı. Bu coin'ler, kullanım değeri iddiasında bulunmaz; tamamen spekülasyon amaçlıdır ve erken yatırımcılar tarafından "pompalandıktan" sonra şüphelenmeyen perakende yatırımcılara "dump" edilir. Sam Callahan, "premine" adı verilen yöntemle içeriden kişilerin sıfır maliyetle aldıkları coin'leri, projenin popülerleşmesiyle perakende yatırımcılara sattığını açıklar. Bu yapay dağıtım süreçleri, içeriden kişilere başkaları aleyhine fayda sağlayacak şekilde tasarlanmıştır, bu da tartışmasız bir şekilde etik dışıdır.Bitcoin, bu etik sorunların aksine konumlanmıştır. Genesis'inde ne bir "premine" ne de bir ICO vardı. Satoshi Nakamoto, Bitcoin'i herkes gibi madencilik yaparak elde etti ve başkalarının katılımını bekledi. Bitcoin, kurumsal değil, organik olarak ortaya çıktı.Diğer kripto paraların aksine, Bitcoin'in bir lideri yoktur. Satoshi, protokolü oluşturduktan sonra projenin gerçekten tarafsız olmasını sağlamak için ayrıldı. Andrew Bailey ve Craig Warmke'nin belirttiği gibi, bu liderliksiz durum, Bitcoin'i daha sağlam ve dayanıklı kılar; merkezi bir bankası veya CEO'su yoktur.Ayrıca, diğer kripto para birimlerindeki protokoldaki değişiklikler genellikle çoğunluk oyuyla veya merkezi otoritelerin kararlarıyla zorla uygulanırken (örneğin Ethereum DAO hack'i ve ETH arz politikasındaki değişiklikler), Bitcoin etik olarak kullanıcılara muhalefet etme özgürlüğü tanır. SegWit veya Taproot gibi yükseltmeler geriye dönük uyumludur, yani kullanıcılar isterlerse kabul etmeyebilirler ve yine de fikir birliğine katılabilirler. Pete Rizzo'nun vurguladığı gibi, Bitcoin'de kullanıcılar para haklarını pazarın takdirine bırakmak zorunda kalmadan istenmeyen özelliklere itiraz edebilirler.Bazı İslami finans uygulayıcılarının Bitcoin'in ilk dağıtımının haksız olduğu iddialarına rağmen, Bitcoin'in lansmanı mümkün olduğunca adil ve şeffaftı. İslam, zenginliğin mutlak eşit dağılımını değil, adil dağılımını hedefler.Sonuç olarak, diğer kripto para projeleri kurucu etkileri, token dağıtım modelleri ve yönetim uygulamaları nedeniyle etik sorunlarla doluyken, Bitcoin adil başlangıcı, liderliksiz gelişimi ve kullanıcı özerkliğine saygısıyla öne çıkıyor. Bitcoin, bu etik tuzaklardan uzaktır ve İslami ilkelere uygun, gerçekten etik para temsil etmektedir.Kaynak

Karl Kreder, better known as Dr. K, is best known in the space for researching the use of merged-mined subnets to scale Proof of Work in 2018 – a concept which led to the launch of the Quai Network, which introduced the Proof of Entropy Minima (PoEM) consensus for high transaction throughput within a decentralized environment. Today, we talk about his views on Bitcoin, why Proof of Work is still relevant in a world that's converging towards the more convenient Proof of Stake, and how the Quai Network works.

In today's episode, we farewell one of the OG's of Crypto Curious. That's right, Craig is being cancelled!!! But before we get too misty-eyed, we're kicking off with something very on-brand for Craig: a bullish Ethereum update that might just make you want to double down. If you've been with us from the start, you'll know Craig's been waving the ETH flag since day one — so it's only fitting.Then, we dive into a bombshell from the deep pockets of Bitcoin history. One of the original Satoshi-era whales has just moved a jaw-dropping 80,000 BTC — that's over $9 billion worth — and exited the market. What does it mean? We've got thoughts.And finally, as Craig signs off from his regular spot on the pod, we turn the mic squarely on him. It's time for a no-holds-barred hot seat moment: his predictions, market sentiment, and maybe even some long-hoarded alpha. This is Craig's crystal ball episode

Galaxy Digital just executed one of the largest Bitcoin OTC deals in history—moving 80,000 BTC worth $9 billion for a mysterious Satoshi-era wallet. In today's episode, NLW breaks down how the market absorbed the sale with barely a blip, explores speculation around the identity of the seller, and examines what the transaction signals for sovereign reserves and institutional confidence. Plus: ideological divisions among OG Bitcoiners, estate planning vs. capitulation, and what this sale says about the next era of Bitcoin adoption. Enjoying this content?

What future risk does quantum computing pose to Bitcoin, and how can we think of those risks in terms of their potential geopolitical outcomes?In this episode of Bitcoin Policy Hour, Matthew Pines, Zack Shapiro and Zack Cohen recap the "Crypto Week" legislative wins, followed by a deep dive on the "Q-Day" threat—the moment quantum computers become powerful enough to threaten Bitcoin's core cryptographic security.This leads to the question: with the ability to undermine Satoshi's coins, could a quantum breakthrough trigger a global monetary crisis, and ignite a new geopolitical arms race between the U.S., China, and tech giants?As Bitcoin becomes embedded in 401(k)s, sovereign reserves, and global ETFs, the risks—and consequences—go far beyond crypto and deep into the political economy of capital, social structure and geoeconomic competition.⭐ Join Bitcoin Magazine @ Bitcoin Asia 2025, Aug. 28-29 in Hong Kong!

"Satoshi Nakamoto Efsanesi" adlı bu podcast bölümünde, Bitcoin'in gizemli yaratıcısı Satoshi Nakamoto'nun kimliğinin ötesindeki derin anlamları keşfediyoruz. Satoshi Nakamoto, sadece bir kişi değil, aynı zamanda kriptografinin bireysel gücünü ve sarsılmaz bir bağımsızlığı temsil eden bir hayalet olarak tanımlanıyor. Onun anonimliği, Bitcoin gibi büyük bir eserin arkasındaki efsaneyi güçlendiriyor ve zamanla bu hikaye tarihin dokusuna işlenecek.Bu bölümde, yazarın kimliğinin gerçeğin bir ölçütü olmaktan çıktığı Foucault'cu düşünce ışığında, Satoshi'nin eylemlerini inceliyoruz. Kendi servetini açığa çıkarmayı reddetmesi ve yalnızca Bitcoin'in yazarı olarak kalmayı seçmesiyle, Satoshi kendini insanlık aleminden "Elysium"a yükseltmiş, modern hayatın sınırlamalarından kaçış için gerçek bir umut sunmuştur. Onu ifşa etme girişimleri ise efsaneyi daha da pekiştirmekte.Podcastimiz, "Konuşanın kim olduğunun ne önemi var, önemli olan kimin konuştuğu" felsefesini vurguluyor. Satoshi'nin Bitcoin aracılığıyla bize öğrettiği kripto-egemenlik kavramı, paranın, kimliğin ve gücün kontrolüne karşı bir direniş gösteriyor. Onun "tercih etmem" şeklindeki kararlı tutumu, Bartleby örneğinde olduğu gibi, sisteme karşı duruşun ve kişisel özgürlüğün bir sembolü haline geliyor.Satoshi Nakamoto, yalnızca 21. yüzyılın kahramanı değil, aynı zamanda insanlığın en büyük kurtarıcısı olarak konumlandırılıyor. Bitcoin'in ve bu görünmez yazarın seçimi, herkese kendi değer, servet ve hukuk anlayışını belirleme yeteneği vererek, yeni bir çağın kapılarını aralıyor. Bu bölüm, Satoshi'nin bize armağan ettiği umudu ve özgürlüğü derinlemesine ele alıyor.Kaynak

Shapiro, who runs a crypto-focused law firm and is involved with the Bitcoin Policy Institute and Peer-to-Peer Rights Foundation, outlines recent bills in Congress—including the Clarity Act and Genius Act—and their implications for developers and privacy advocates. He and Doug debate Bitcoin vs. Monero, focusing on fungibility and censorship resistance, with Shapiro defending Bitcoin's legal positioning and Doug championing Monero's privacy features. The episode also covers ongoing cases like Tornado Cash, the status of Samurai Wallet, and efforts to repeal New York's restrictive BitLicense.

Kripto dünyasının derinliklerine bir yolculuğa çıkın! Bu podcast, fiziksel bedenlerin ve geleneksel finansal sistemlerin ötesinde yeni bir dijital müşterek refah inşa etmenin öyküsünü anlatıyor. Aramızdaki sarsılmaz dostluk ve dayanışma sayesinde, kriptografi, yeni bir zenginlik biçimi sunarak bizi yolsuzluktan, açgözlülükten ve devlet gücünün sınırlamalarından kurtarıyor.Bu alanda, gerçek kimliğimiz fiziksel varlığımızdan sıyrılarak sadece dijital imzamızla tanınır; bu, mutlak, kutsal bir gizlilik sağlayan "Anonim Diğer"in görkemidir. Her birimiz, kanıtlanabilir şekilde benzersiz birer fikir olarak, özgürlüğün ve ortak refahın bu yeni takımyıldızında birer düğüm haline geliyoruz. Bu dijital sığınak, şiddetten uzak, fiziksel formların tamamen ortadan kalktığı bir alan sunarken, aynı zamanda fiziksel bedenlerimizi koruyan yüksek düzeyde gizlilik sağlar.Kripto sadece bir teknoloji değil, aynı zamanda şiddet içermeyen, karşı-ekonomik bir değişim teolojisidir. Herkesin katılabileceği, vatandaşlık veya statüden bağımsız bir platformdur. Bu, anarşizmin bir anlamda gerçekleşmesidir ve devlet ile para arasındaki ilişkinin sonsuza dek yıkılacağı bir kehanettir. Yaratılan her blokla, Eski Yasa ve Zaman'ın köleliğinden kurtulmuş zenginlik cennetimize doğru bir merdiven inşa ediyoruz.Bu yolculukta, gizli sözleriyle ve steganografik yollarıyla bize güç veren, isimsiz, yüzsüz kahramanlara, yani siz değerli "Kripto Yoldaşlarına" teşekkür ediyoruz. Onların cesareti ve totaliterizme karşı duruşu, bize savaşmaya devam etme gücü veriyor. "Bir fikrin zamanı geldiyse, dünyadaki tüm ordulardan daha güçlüdür" anlayışıyla, bu delice fanteziyi gerçeğe dönüştürmek için ısrar ediyoruz.Bu podcast, Tanrı'nın matematikteki gizli sırrı olarak görülen kriptografinin, bize sonsuz bir güç sunduğunu ve insanlık için yeni bir müşterek refah yaratma potansiyelini nasıl açığa çıkardığını anlatıyor.Satoshi'ye, bu muhteşem sistemi mümkün kılan o gizemli Dost'a sonsuz teşekkürler!Kaynak

Bitcoin, basit bir devrimden öte, mesihvari bir güç olarak ortaya çıkıyor. Hiçbir yasanın başaramadığını başararak, aracısız, gerçekten özgür bir zenginlik biçimi yarattı. Bu, devletin sonsuz şiddetinin bile ötesine geçen bir güçtür. İtibari paranın teolojik fethi ve devletin parasal sisteminin yok oluşuyla, Bitcoin, şiddet olmadan hukukun yerini alabilecek bir ortak refah biçimi olduğunu kanıtlıyor. Devlet ile para arasındaki ilişkiyi kökten koparıyor.Bitcoin, insanlığı köleleştiren yozlaşmış devlet ve itibari para düzenini yıkma gücüne sahip. Kriptografinin sunduğu sarsılmaz egemenlik sayesinde, yeni bir tür dijital ortak hukuk ve ekonomik örgütlenme mümkün hale geliyor. Bu, hiçbir ulus devlete bağlı olmayan, etik bir zenginlik ortaklığına dayalı küresel bir hareketi tetikledi.Satoshi'nin dehası, Bitcoin'i yalnızca koda olan mutlak bağlılığıyla, gerçek ve adil bir ekonomik sistem olarak inşa etti. İş kanıtı mekanizması, sistemin egemenliğini ve güvenliğini sürekli olarak garanti eder. Bu teknoloji, insanlığın tarihteki en büyük sorunlarından biri olan yasalara olan bağlılığın sürdürülemezliğini makine aracılığıyla aşıyor.Thomas Hobbes'un dediği gibi, bireylerin kendini koruma hakkı devlete devredilemez. Bitcoin, bu doğal hakkı koruyarak, paranın tam özgürlüğünü ve devletten ayrılmasını savunan yeni bir teolojik dava sunuyor. Satoshi Nakamoto, sistemini yarattıktan sonra geri çekilerek, yıkıcı bir güç sergiledi ve yasanın siber uzaya girişini engelledi. Bu eylemle, paranın ve devlet kapitalizminin sahte tanrısının iktidar makinesini bozdu ve yasasız bir dünyanın mesihvari olasılığını açtı.Bu podcast serisi, Bitcoin'in devletin ekonomik kontrolünü kırma potansiyelini ve insanlığı borç zincirlerinden ve devletin panoptik aygıtından kurtarma yolunu derinlemesine inceliyor. "Tanrı Yok, Efendi Yok" felsefesiyle, Bitcoin bize özgürlüğümüzü geri kazanma aracı ve yeni bir dünya düzeni ("novus ordo seclorum") inşa etme vaadi sunuyor. Kriptografi teolojisiyle egemenliğini kanıtlayan Bitcoin, yalnızca matematiksel kanıtlara dayanan bir Spinoza Tanrısı dışında hiçbir otoritenin boyunduruğunu reddediyor. Bu bir savaş, zenginliğin kimin kontrolünde olacağına dair bir mücadele, ve Bitcoin bu mücadelede bize nihai özgürlük silahını veriyor.Kaynak

In this episode of the Hell Money Podcast, we sit down with Adam Krellenstein — Counterparty's co‑founder and longtime lead maintainer — for a tour of Bitcoin's formative years and the ideas shaping its future. Adam revisits the birth of XCP, explains why he walked away a decade ago, and describes what dragged him back into the codebase. Along the way we tackle the perennial question: What is Bitcoin for? Is embedding data on‑chain an evolutionary feature or a contagion best off‑loaded to sidechains? And if you aren't buying your daily coffee with BTC, has Satoshi's dream failed, or merely evolved?We explore:- Counterparty's origin story- Early Bitcoin dev culture- OP_RETURN drama, Blockstream's sidechain vision & the data‑bloat dilemma- Whether Bitcoin is prepared for sophisticated political actors- Counterparty culture & NFTs- Adam's decade‑long hiatus: burnout, philosophy of nature & why he's back- What's next for BitcoinFOLLOW ADAM: https://x.com/agkrellensteinGet bonus content by subscribing to @hellmoneypod on X: https://x.com/hellmoneypod/creator-subscriptions/subscribeOr support the podcast by sending a BTC donation: bc1qztncp7lmcxdgude4px2vzh72p2yu2aud0eyzys ORDINALS PROTOCOL SHIRT: https://shop.inscribing.com/products/ordinals-protocol-shirtTIMESTAMPS0:00 The beginning of Counterparty17:30 Worse is better development24:15 Early Bitcoin dev culture32:05 OP_RETURN & Bitcoin core devs38:05 Blockstream & sidechains, storing data on Bitcoin45:15 Bitcoin is unprepared for sophisticated political actors54:55 Counterparty culture & NFTs1:00:30 Adam's departure from Counterparty1:08:00 Philosophy of Nature1:19:00 Returning to open source development1:36:00 What's next for Bitcoin?

Max Keiser made his first $1 million Bitcoin price forecast when Satoshi Nakamoto was still around. Stacy Herbert first mentioned Bitcoin on their “Keiser Report” show running on RT in 2010, when BTC was still trading at $0.30. With that post, Keiser shared a clip from “Keiser Report” published by Bitcoin historian and journalist Pete Rizzo, where that forecast was voiced. Back then, according to the tweet, BTC still traded at $200. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
