Bu bölümde, dijital çağın en dönüştürücü kavramlarından biri olan **"Kriptoegemenlik"**i keşfediyoruz. Satoshi Nakamoto'nun merkezi ağlara karşı P2P ağlarının gücüne dair sözlerinden ilham alan bu eşsiz güç, Michel Foucault'nun egemenlik takıntısından uzaklaşma çağrısıyla da yankılanır. Kriptoegemenlik, siberpunk'ların kriptografi araçlarını askeri sırlardan kişisel özgürlük ve ekonomik serbestlik araçlarına dönüştürerek yarattığı, geleneksel siyasi güç, yasa ve şiddet sistemlerini reddeden bir yaklaşımdır.John Perry Barlow'un "Siberuzayın Bağımsızlık Bildirgesi"nde belirtildiği gibi, Kriptoegemenlik, hükümetlerin yetki alanının dışında, bireylerin ekonomik, sosyal ve siyasi haklarını ihlal edilemez bir dijital ortak zenginliğe aktarma yeteneğidir. Bu yeni paradigmada, "kodun kendisi egemendir, istisnası yoktur". Giorgio Agamben'in "tamamen farklı stratejiler" arayışına işaret ettiği gibi, Kriptoegemenlik, Hobbes'un "otorite yasayı yapar" düsturunu tersine çevirerek, "hakikatin meşruiyet sağladığı" yeni bir sosyal sözleşme kurar. Fiziksel gücü sözleşmesel uygulamadan çıkararak, blockchain sistemleri aracılığıyla benzersiz bir egemenlik biçimi yaratılır.Bu, yalnızca bir teknolojik gelişme değil, aynı zamanda siyasi bir praksistir. Walter Benjamin'in "içinde yaşadığımız acil durumun kural olduğunu" belirten düşüncelerine dayanarak, Kriptoegemenlik, küresel faşizm ve yolsuzlukla mücadelede ekonomik gücü temel bir araç olarak görür. Fiat para sistemine ve gözetim mekanizmalarına katılmayı reddederek, bireylerin kendi varlıkları ve gizlilikleri üzerindeki kontrolü geri alması, "gerçek bir olağanüstü hal" yaratır. Bu, devletin ve bankacılık müttefiklerinin "can damarlarını" kesen devrimci bir eylemdir.Kriptoegemenliğin hedefi, şiddet döngülerini tekrarlayan yeni bir egemenlik biçimi yaratmak değil, geleneksel güç yapılarını temelden dışarıda bırakarak günümüze daha uygun, daha iyi bir sistem inşa etmektir. Bu, bireyin seçimiyle egemen kararın alındığı, kriptografik kanıtlarla kendini güvence altına alan bir sistemdir. Gelin, kodun gücüyle şekillenen bu yeni dijital özgürlük çağını ve insanoğlunun yasayla çocukların eski oyuncaklarla oynaması gibi oynayacağı, onları kanonik kullanımlarından sonsuza dek özgürleştireceği geleceği keşfedelim.Kaynak

"Kripto, Hakikat ve İktidar" adlı özel bir podcast bölümüne hoş geldiniz. Bu bölümde, kripto varlıkların askeri birer savaş unsuru olarak gerçek değerini ve bu değerin ekonomik öneminin önüne geçtiğini keşfedeceğiz. Satoshi Nakamoto'nun ideolojisinin devlet kapitalisti bir fanteziden ziyade, açıkça bir kripto-anarşist vizyonu olduğunu anlayacağız.Kriptoyu bir savaş mühimmatı ve garantili mahremiyetin taktiksel organizasyonu için bir siper olarak ele alarak, gerçek gücünün ekonomide değil, savaşta yattığını göreceğiz. Michel Foucault'nun biyo-iktidar merceğinden güç, hukuk ve kriptografi ilişkisini deşifre ederek, kripto sistemlerinin sosyal, ekonomik ve nihayetinde politik gücün tamamen yeni bir biçimini nasıl yarattığını inceleyeceğiz.Bu yeni süper yapının adı "Sifernet". Sifernet, hukuku garanti eden (ve daima şiddetle oluşan) otoriteyi, kendini kirletemeyen veya eylemlerini zorlamak için şiddet kullanamayan bir hakikat sistemiyle değiştiriyor. Blockchain'in hakikat taşıma kapasitesinin devlet otoriterliği üzerindeki üstünlüğünü ve mutabakatla güç inşa etmenin önemini vurgulayarak, Sifernet'in oluşturduğu yeni iktidar biçimini anlamaya çalışacağız.Satoshi'nin, herhangi bir devlet iktidarının ulaşamayacağı tamamen dışarıda bir konumda kalarak yeni bir para biçimi yaratmayı nasıl hedeflediğini, yani "nihai suçu" işlerken aynı zamanda "yeni anlaşmanın ilk vatandaşı" haline nasıl geldiğini ele alacağız. Kimliğini ve fiziksel varlığını dijital alana taşıyarak, şiddetin ve yasal gücün dayanağı olan fiziksel tanımlamanın önüne nasıl geçtiğini göreceğiz.Podcast'te, devletlerin sadece otoritelerinin yasa yapıcı olduğunu (auctoritas, non veritas facit legem) iddia ettiği bir dünyada, kriptonun "hakikatin yasa yapıcı olduğu" (veritas, non auctoritas facit legem) prensibini nasıl tersine çevirdiğini derinlemesine işleyeceğiz. Bu, blockchain'i yeni bir para birimi olmaktan öte, Sifernet'te bulunan yeni bir sosyal sözleşme haline getiren devrimci bir güçtür.Foucault'nun devletin iktidarındaki çatlaklara dair görüşleriyle, devletin aparatlarının tüm gücüne rağmen gerçek güç ilişkilerinin tamamını kapsayamadığını ve devletin zaten var olan diğer güç ilişkileri üzerinden işlediğini analiz edeceğiz. Kripto, kimliği körleştirerek bu negatif güç biçimlerinden nasıl kaçıyor ve aynı zamanda Sifernet aracılığıyla bir alternatif nasıl oluşturuyor. Bu, devletin şiddetle tekelinde tuttuğu güç ilişkilerinin farklı bir kodlamasıyla devrimi temsil ediyor.Bu podcast, devlet emperyalizminin boyunduruğunu atmak ve teknolojik faşizmin gölgesini dağıtmakla kalmayıp, geçmiş siyasi sistemlerin tuzaklarından arınmış, tamamen yeni bir siyasi faaliyet biçimi yaratma olasılığını sunan kriptodaki gücü keşfetmemiz için bir rehber olacak. Çünkü siyasi mesele, yanılsama değil, hakikatin kendisidir.Kaynak

Bu podcast bölümünde, Bitcoin dünyasının en gizemli figürü Satoshi Nakamoto'ya duyulan derin bir özlemi konu alıyoruz. Kaynaklarımız, "eski Satoshi" ile "yeni Satoshi" arasındaki belirgin farkları ortaya koyuyor.Eski Satoshi, doğrudan düğümden beslenen, kodu şekillendiren, hedeflerine odaklanmış, nazik, siberpunk, Script dilini tasarlayan, pro açık kaynak ve kimliğini gizli tutan bir figür olarak anılıyor. Orijinal Bitcoin projesini başlatan ve "bir tane Satoshi"nin olduğu zamanları özlüyorlar.Buna karşılık, kaynaklar "yeni Satoshi" veya "sahte Satoshi"yi eleştiriyor. Bu figürler davalarla uğraşan, kaba, ortalıkta görünen, SPV (Basit Ödeme Doğrulaması) ve "her şeyi blok zincir yapma" peşinde koşan, kötü ruh halinde ve haberlerde "spazm" geçiren olarak betimleniyor.Metinler, artık "çok sayıda Satoshi" olduğunu ve hatta "hepimizin Satoshi" haline geldiğini belirterek, bu kimliğin zamanla nasıl evrildiğini sorguluyor. Kimlik, anonimlik ve Bitcoin'in temel ruhu üzerine düşündüren bu ifadeler, gerçek Satoshi'nin siberpunk köklerine ve açık kaynak idealine olan bağlılığın ne kadar önemli olduğunu vurguluyor.Bitcoin'in gizemli başlangıcına bir yolculuk yapmak ve Satoshi kimliğinin bugünkü durumunu anlamak için bu bölüme kulak verin.Kaynak

Teknolojinin ne kadar büyüleyici olduğunu ve akıllı telefonlar gibi günlük cihazların bile birkaç nesil önce yaşayan birine sihir gibi görünebileceğini hiç düşündünüz mü? Aynı şekilde, Bitcoin de bu "sihirli" niteliği paylaşıyor. Tıpkı bir araba veya akıllı telefon gibi, kullanmak için her teknik detayını anlamanız gerekmiyor. Bu yeni değer biçimine alışmanın en iyi yolu, bizzat deneyimlemektir.Bitcoin, internetin bir çocuğu. Bilimsel bir dergide değil, internette ücretsiz olarak yayınlanan bir teknik makaleyle duyuruldu. İlk viral reklamı, mavi bir sihirbazın yer aldığı "Magic Internet Money" temalı bir internet memesi aracılığıyla yayıldı. Bu dijital paranın sabit 21 milyon adetlik arza sahip olması gibi benzersiz parasal özellikleri bu bölümde ele alınıyor.Bitcoin'in takma adlı yaratıcısı Satoshi Nakamoto'nun gizemine dalıyoruz. Satoshi, 2008'de aniden ortaya çıktı ve 2010'da ortadan kayboldu. Kimliğinin bilinmemesinin, lidersiz bir sistem için bir özellik olduğuna inanılıyordu. Bitcoin'in erken tarihindeki önemli olayları takip ediyoruz: 2008'de teknik makalenin yayımlanması, 2009'da Genesis Bloğun çıkarılması ve Satoshi'nin 2010'daki son kamu mesajı.Mt. Gox gibi öne çıkan erken projeleri öğrenin. Başlangıçta bir "Magic: The Gathering Online eXchange" (sihirli kart takas sitesi) olan Mt. Gox, zamanla lider Bitcoin borsası haline geldi. Ancak 2014'teki dramatik çöküşüyle 850.000 bitcoin kaybetti. Buradan çıkarılan ders şuydu: "Anahtarlar senin değilse, bitcoin de senin değil".Ayrıca, 2011'de başlatılan kötü şöhretli Silk Road'u ele alıyoruz. Yaratıcısı Ross Ulbricht, liberter ideallerle uyumlu, kısıtlamasız bir çevrimiçi pazar yeri hayal ediyordu. Bitcoin, bu vizyonu gerçeğe dönüştürmek için eksik olan anonim ödeme çözümünü sağladı. Ross, sihirli mantarları sihirli internet parası karşılığında satarak ilk satıcı oldu. Silk Road, Ulbricht'in tutuklanmasına kadar devasa boyutlara ulaştı. Karanlık geçmişine rağmen, Silk Road birçok kişi için Bitcoin'i keşfetme yolunda bir "geçiş kapısı" oldu.Sihri bizzat deneyimleyin: bir iletişim kanalı üzerinden doğrudan değer almak. Bitcoin, herhangi bir aracı olmadan doğrudan alıcı ve satıcı arasında akar. Satoshi'nin benzetmesiyle Bitcoin, "sihirli bir baz metal" gibidir. Herhangi bir iletişim kanalıyla taşınabilir ve metin, QR kodları gibi çeşitli şekillere bürünebilir. Bu şekil değiştirme özelliği, onu sansüre karşı dirençli kılar. Bitcoin'in diğer bir sihirli özelliği ise "görünmezlik" veya inkar edilebilirliğidir; servetiniz, onu açığa çıkaran sihirli bir büyü (özel anahtarınız) gibidir.Bu mümkün çünkü Bitcoin, internetin "çift harcama sorununu" çözdü. Geleneksel çevrimiçi para sistemleri, işlemleri izleyen ve düzensizliği yöneten aracı kurumlara güvenmeyi gerektirir. Bitcoin ise bu güveni üçüncü partilerden kişinin kendisine kaydırır, ağdan sağlam para çıkışını mümkün kılar.Bitcoin kullanmak giderek kolaylaşsa da, teknik ve parasal yeniliklerini anlamak sizi bir "Bitcoin Sihirbazı" yapabilir. Bu yolculuk, genellikle "tavşan deliğine düşmek" veya "turuncu hapı almak" olarak adlandırılır. Bu kontrolle birlikte sorumluluk gelir; anahtarlarınızı kaybeder veya bir dolandırıcıya gönderirseniz, geri dönüşü yoktur. Bu bölüm, Magic Internet Money'nin bu büyüleyici kökenlerini ve özelliklerini keşfediyor.Kaynak

31 Ekim 2008'de dünya yeni bir fikirle tanıştı: Bitcoin: Eşler Arası Elektronik Nakit Sistemi. Satoshi Nakamoto tarafından yayımlanan bir teknik makale ile duyurulan bu fikir, ilk birkaç yıl boyunca neredeyse herkes tarafından göz ardı edildi. Ancak zamanla, bunun basit bir zengin olma planından çok daha fazlası, küresel toplum üzerinde kalıcı bir değişim potansiyeli taşıyan durdurulamaz bir kavram olduğu ortaya çıktı.Dijital nakit fikrinin kökleri 1990'lara ve öncesine dayanır; özellikle cypherpunks olarak bilinen bir grup, anonim dijital nakit ve güçlü kriptografinin toplumsal etkileri üzerine yoğun tartışmalar yürütmüştür. Eric Hughes'un 1993 tarihli "Bir Cypherpunk Manifestosu", mahremiyetin ve anonim işlem sistemlerinin özgür bir toplum için ne kadar önemli olduğunu vurgulamıştır.Daha önceki dijital nakit girişimleri (Ecash, E-gold, hashcash, bit gold, b-money, RPOW gibi) çeşitli yenilikler sunsa da, genellikle merkezi yapıları nedeniyle başarısız olmuştur. Satoshi'nin de belirttiği gibi, bu sistemleri başarısızlığa mahkum eden tam olarak merkeziyetçilikti.Satoshi'nin dehası, mevcut teknolojileri (açık anahtarlı kriptografi, eşler arası ağlar, dijital imzalar, iş ispatı gibi) dahiyane bir şekilde birleştirmekte yattı. Onun çığır açan buluşu, dijital dünyadaki iki temel sorunu, yani çift harcama ve dijital kıtlık sorunlarını, güvenilir üçüncü bir tarafa ihtiyaç duymadan çözmesiydi. Bunu, eşler arası bir ağ, küresel bir zaman zinciri ve dinamik olarak ayarlanan bir zorluk seviyesi kullanarak başardı.Merkezi olmayan tasarım, Bitcoin'in hayatta kalması için kritik öneme sahiptir. Devletler gibi motive olmuş aktörlerin merkezi sistemleri kapatması kolayken, Bitcoin gibi tamamen eşler arası ağların "kesilecek bir başı" yoktur. Satoshi, bit gold'un merkezi otoriteye bağımlılığı ve b-money'nin para yaratma zorlukları gibi önceki sistemlerin zayıflıklarını gidermiştir. Sonuç, her düğümün her şeyi kendi başına doğrulayabildiği, kıtlığın garantilendiği (21 milyon adetle sınırlı) ve ihraç hızının önceden belirlendiği merkezi olmayan bir sistemdir.Bitcoin, yalnızca enerjiye (fizik kanunlarına) güvenen ilk pratik, merkezi olmayan dijital kıtlık çözümünü sunarak, dijital varlıkların potansiyelini değiştirdi. "Fikirler kurşun geçirmezdir" ve Bitcoin fikri, Satoshi'nin kodlanmış haliyle dünyaya saldığı "şişeden çıkan cin"dir. Bu, parayı devlet kontrolünden kurtarmaya bir adım daha yaklaştıran, zamanı gelmiş güçlü bir fikirdir.Kaynak

Vernor Vinge'in öngörülü novellası True Names'ten ve Bitcoin'in kurucusu Satoshi Nakamoto'nun esrarengiz kimliğinden ilham alarak, dijital çağda kimlik, gizlilik, anonimlik ve takma adların derinliklerine iniyoruz. Yazar Gigi, çocukluk lakabının nasıl "gerçek adı"na dönüştüğünü anlatan kişisel hikayesinden yola çıkarak, çevrimiçi dünyada ve "et mekânında" (meat space) kimliğin sabit değil, prizmatik ve akışkan olduğunu savunuyor.Google, Facebook, bankalar ve hükümetlerin dayattığı tekil, izlenebilir ve parça parça satılan kimlik anlayışını keskin bir dille eleştiriyoruz. Bu dayatmanın, bizi gözetim devletlerinin distopik panoptikonlarına götüren tehlikeli bir yol olduğu belirtiliyor. Özgür bir toplumun, kişinin kendisini dünyaya seçici olarak açığa çıkarma seçeneğine sahip olması gerektiğini vurguluyoruz. Anonimlik ve takma adların (pseudonymity) önemini açıklarken, takma adların bir karakter ve itibar inşa etmeye olanak sağladığını belirtiyoruz.Cypherpunklardan, #WeAreAllHodlonaut hareketine, takma adların ve sembollerin bir fikir etrafında nasıl toplanma gücü verdiğini keşfediyoruz. George Orwell, Ayn Rand, Satoshi Nakamoto ve Buddha gibi örneklerle takma adların "gerçek isimlerden" bile daha güçlü olabileceğini gösteriyoruz. "Hepimiz Satoshi'yiz" fikri üzerinden, Bitcoin'in kimseye ait olmadığını ve kolektif bir çaba olduğunu belirtiyoruz.Geleneksel finansal sistemlerin aksine, Bitcoin'in neden bankalar ve ödeme işlemcilerinin aksine kimlik, onay veya ayrımcılık gerektirmediğini inceliyoruz. Bitcoin'in doğası gereği "kötü olamama"sının ("Can't be evil"), "kötü olmama" sözünden ("Don't be evil") daha üstün olduğunu ve ayrımcılık yapmayan bir finansal sistem sunduğunu vurguluyoruz.Bu bölüm, kimliğinizi seçme, kendinizi dünyaya seçici olarak açığa çıkarma özgürlüğünün ve Bitcoin'in sunduğu finansal bağımsızlığın bir kutlamasıdır. "Gerçek İsimler Gerekli Değil" ilkesinin [Başlık, 4, 17] neden daha özgür, daha adil ve daha sanlı bir geleceğin anahtarı olduğunu öğrenin.

Merhaba dinleyiciler. Bugün, üzerine düşündüğümüzde bizi derinden etkileyebilecek bir konuya, Bitcoin'in felsefi öğretilerine değiniyoruz. Kaynaklarımıza göre, Bitcoin sadece bir teknoloji değil, aynı zamanda dünya görüşümüzü değiştiren bir "oyun kılığına girmiş" bir "geçit" olarak tanımlanıyor.Bitcoin'in iki temel yönü var: merkeziyetsizlik ve değişmezlik. Bu kaynak, ilginç bir şekilde, sizin Bitcoin'i değiştiremeyeceğinizi, ancak Bitcoin'in sizi değiştireceğini öne sürüyor. Bitcoin'in yaratıcısı Satoshi Nakamoto, ilk sürüm yayımlandıktan sonra temel tasarımın "taşa kazındığını" biliyordu. Bu anlayış, zaman tercihimizi, ekonomik düşüncemizi ve hatta siyasi görüşlerimizi etkileyebilir.Teknolojinin her şeyi bollaştırdığı bir çağda, Bitcoin bize gerçek kıtlığın ne olduğunu öğretiyor. Arzı şişirilemeyen yeni bir varlık yaratıyor ve bu kıtlığı tuhaf bir şekilde kopyalama ve dağıtım yoluyla başarıyor.Bitcoin'in kusursuz başlangıç hikayesi, Satoshi Nakamoto'nun anonimliği ve ortadan kaybolması, merkeziyetsizliği için hayati önem taşıyor. Bu, kontrol edilebilecek merkezi bir otoritenin olmamasını sağlıyor ve anlatısı hayatta kalması için kritik.Bu paylaşımdaki fikirler, kimlik problemine de değiniyor; Bitcoin, Theseus'un Gemisi gibi, kod değişse veya ağ çatallansa bile hangi Bitcoin'in "gerçek" olduğu sorusunu gündeme getiriyor. Merkeziyetsizlik, tek bir otoritenin meşru zinciri belirlemesini imkansız kılıyor, bu da kararın piyasaya veya ağın konsensüsüne bırakıldığı anlamına geliyor.Bitcoin'inizin tam olarak "nerede" olduğu sorusu da karmaşık. Teknik olarak ayrı "bitcoinler" mevcut değil; bunlar dağıtılmış bir defterdeki harcanmamış işlem çıktısı (UTXO) girişleridir. Sahip olduğunuz şey, bu girişleri "hareket ettirmek" için kullandığınız özel anahtarlarınızdır. Bu, yerelliğin dijital dünyada ne kadar zorlayıcı bir kavram olduğunu gösteriyor.Bitcoin'in her yönü metindir ve bu nedenle konuşmaya eşdeğerdir. Bu, ifade özgürlüğünün olduğu bir toplumda, metin alışverişine dayanan bir fikrin durdurulamaz olduğu anlamına gelir.Son olarak, Bitcoin'i öğrenmek bilginin sınırlarını gösteriyor. Tam olarak anlamak sadece bilgisayar bilimi değil, politika, ekonomi, tarih, kriptografi gibi birçok farklı disiplini bir araya getirmeyi gerektirir. Bu, ne kadar az şey bildiğimizi fark etmemizi sağlayan "dipsiz bir tavşan deliğidir". Bitcoin, sadece teknolojik bir gelişme değil, geniş kapsamlı sonuçları olan, sınırları olmayan bir sistemdir.Kaynak

Bitcoin might still be wildly undervalued—and Adam Back explains why. In this episode, we sit down with Adam Back, CEO of Blockstream, early cypherpunk, and inventor of hashcash, the proof-of-work system that inspired bitcoin mining. Adam shares the story of receiving the first known email from Satoshi Nakamoto, why he didn't buy bitcoin until it hit $100, and how early ideas like b-money and bit gold shaped Satoshi's breakthrough. We explore the importance of a fixed supply, why halvings still move the market, and how doubt keeps bitcoin underpriced. Adam weighs in on treasury adoption, supply shocks, and whether this cycle could break the diminishing returns theory. We also discuss volatility, long-term thinking, and the $100 trillion opportunity bitcoin is unlocking.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 - Intro1:00 - Why selling bitcoin is like playing against a rigged casino7:38 - Why Adam didn't buy bitcoin until it hit $10010:11 - Realizing bitcoin had bootstrapped into something real13:35 - The underrated role of Nick Szabo, Wei Dai, and Hal Finney19:24 - Why the 2008 financial crisis was perfect timing for bitcoin22:32 - Is bitcoin drifting from its cypherpunk roots?26:01 - How doubt keeps bitcoin undervalued27:52 - Why $10 million bitcoin is still possible31:19 - Why volatility makes bitcoin hard to sell36:36 - Why halvings still impact the price despite being predictable42:35 - Why this cycle could invalidate the diminishing returns theory46:14 - The global unbanked: a $100 trillion bitcoin market48:12 - The 200-week moving average as a price floor50:10 - Price reflexivity: why people buy because it's going up53:07 - The shrinking tradable supply and why halvings still matterWHERE 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→ Adam Back's Twitter: https://x.com/adam3us

Thank you.Many thanks to all the new subscribers who have joined this week, both paid and unpaid. I put this video of my recent North Sea Oil piece up on YouTube, X et al and it generated something of a flurry.So welcome. I hope you both enjoy and benefit from The Flying Frisby.Before we get started I just wanted to note that Comstock Lode seems to be catching a nice tail wind, which is good. Enjoy the ride. The AGM is later today for the keener of you out there.But we are looking at bitcoin today, and exploring an alternative way to invest in it.I'm going through one of those phases where I feel like I don't own enough bitcoin.So I've bought more.And I've bought it in my SIPP - UK-speak for my retirement account.I'll explain how in a second.Let's just have a quick look at the bitcoin price, and note that we are once again breaking out to new highs.I know it feels like you are late to the bitcoin story, and yes we all wish we bought it at $10, when we first heard about it. But we didn't. We are where we are, and this story is a long way from being over.The next chapter in the odyssey is corporate adoption, and that story is just getting started.I explained the bitcoin corporate treasury model a fortnight ago here, and I've made the article freely available to all, so please take a look, but the TLDR is this.Following a template set by billionaire genius Michael Saylor, more and more companies are converting their treasuries to bitcoin as a means to store value and escape currency debasement. Not only that, they are issuing paper—stock, debt, convertible notes—and using the capital raised to buy more bitcoin. In effect, they are creating fiat money from nothing—it is a debt-based system, after all—and using it to buy a finite digital resource (one that, of course, cannot be created through debt).Many are scratching their heads and saying, “How can this be? It's not possible! It's a bubble.”What Saylor is actually doing, among other things, is exposing the flaws of debt-based fiat currency. There are now some 70 companies employing this strategy. This will eventually be a stampede, which I urge you to front-run. Corporations have much deeper pockets than private investors, meaning this latest cycle in bitcoin's mass adoption could become a mega mania.Shareholders welcome dilution if it means more bitcoin. The problem of corporate dilution has been flipped on its head. Once, if a company issued 20% more stock, you would expect the stock to fall by a concomitant amount to reflect the dilution. But if you're using paper to buy bitcoin, the reverse applies. You can't dilute enough. The purpose of a bitcoin treasury company is to acquire as much bitcoin as possible on behalf of all shareholders, by whatever means.Here is a case in point.Japanese hotel company Metaplanet (3350:TYO) had a small chain of low-budget hotels across Southeast Asia. Covid decimated the business, and it never fully recovered.A year ago, seeking a new direction, CEO Simon Gerovich began copying the Saylor model and started using his cash flow to buy bitcoin, then he began issuing debt. Since spring 2024, when the company began its strategy, the stock has risen thousands of percent from below ¥20 to north of ¥1,000. Last year, it was one of the best-performing companies in the world, if not the best. How about this for a chart?In the time that bitcoin has risen 60%, Metaplanet has risen more than 7,000%. (Saylor's Strategy (NASDAQ:MSTR) has also outperformed bitcoin. Bitcoin treasury companies give you gearing).With its crap currency and suppressed bond yields, bitcoin is an obvious place for Japanese investors to put their capital, except the government has got in the way.As with the UK, dumb regulations make it very hard for Japanese investors to buy bitcoin directly. (This came as a result of Mt. Gox, the first bitcoin exchange, which went bust after being hacked in 2013-14). To give you an idea how ponderous things are, to register with a bitcoin exchange in Japan , regulators demand you get a letter by snail mail to verify your address. Nuts.What's more, when the Japanese sell, they must pay capital gains tax at 55%.But Metaplanet is a Tokyo-listed company, so investors are buying that instead in their retirement accounts and via their brokers. Far less hassle. Just as, back in 2023, I urged UK readers to buy Strategy as a way to play bitcoin (we are up around 1,000%), Metaplanet has become Japan's bitcoin vehicle—indeed, much of Asia's.For several days in a row, the company has gone limit-up, and trading has been halted. The mother of all short squeezes seems to be taking place. It's the most shorted stock in all of Japan - and the short sellers are struggling to cover.This bubble has, quite literally, been caused by state regulation. We wouldn't be in this situation if it was easy to buy bitcoin. It's enough to make you a libertarian. It's amazing that both Japan and the UK were at the vanguard in bitcoin's early days. Satoshi Nakamoto had a Japanese name and used British English. Now we are both retarded (in both the old sense of the word and the new).How to profit from the maniaIn the UK, Avis-listed The Smarter Web Company (ISIN: GB00BPJHZ015) is now following suit, as several readers have pointed out to me (thank you). It's gone from 5p to 45p in a month. Currently, The Smarter Web Company has a market cap of £72 million, while it holds only £3 million in bitcoin (rounded numbers). Insane, you might think. Probably.Bitcoin Treasury Companies are outperforming bitcoin. They are the new sh*tcoins. So which bitcoin treasury company have I gone for?Here is how I am playing all this.

This week we talk about kidnappings, ransoms, and bitcoin.We also discuss crypto wealth, robberies, and memecoins.Recommended Book: The Status Game by Will StorrTranscriptIn 2008, a white paper published by someone writing under the pen name Satoshi Nakamoto proposed a method for making a decentralized asset class called a cryptocurrency that led to the creation of bitcoin, which was implemented and began trading in 2009.While there were other variations on this theme, and attempts to create something like a cryptocurrency previously, bitcoin is generally considered to be the first modern incarnation of this asset class, and its approach—using a peer-to-peer network to keep track of who owns what tokens on a publicly distributed ledger called a blockchain—led to the development of many copycats, and many next-generation cryptoassets based on similar principles, or principles that have been iterated in all sorts of directions, based on the preferences and beliefs of those assets' founders.In its early days, bitcoin didn't make much of a splash and was considered to be kind of an anomaly, mostly interesting to a very small number of people who speculated about alternative currencies and how they might be developed and implemented in the real world, but as of mid-May 2025, the global market cap for all cryptocurrencies is $3.39 trillion, bitcoin accounting for more than $2 trillion of that total.That said, there are tens of thousands of cryptocurrencies available, these days, though the majority of them have been formally discontinued or simply allowed to go fallow, becoming functionally inactive.That's partly the consequence of a surge in interest during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the price of bitcoin popping from just over $5,000 at the start of the pandemic to around $68,000 in late-2021.Bitcoin and most of the other crypto-assets that sprung up during that tumultuous period then collapsed when the US Federal Reserve hiked interest rates, intending to temper inflation, which had the knock-on effect of reining in risky bets on things like seed-level startups and alternative assets classes, like crypto—bitcoin dropped to less than $17,000 in 2023, partly as a result of that move—but as inflation levels cooled and investors started to look for assets that might pay out big time again, there was another wave of crypto-asset launches, especially of the ‘meme coin' variety, which basically means a crypto token that's launched either as a joke, or to try to make some money off something that's trending—the most famous meme coin is probably Dogecoin, which was originally released in 2013 as a joke, but then boomed in popularity and price during the pandemic.Through it all, and well before most people knew what bitcoin or cryptocurrencies were, Coinbase has served as a central pillar of the crypto-asset ecosystem.The company was founded in 2012 by a former Airbnb engineer as a crypto exchange: a place where you can swap crypto assets for other crypto assets, but importantly, where you can also sell those assets for real world money, or buy them for real world money.And that's what I want to talk about today, and more specifically a recent hack of Coinbase, and the potential implications of that hack.—In mid-May of 2025, Coinbase reported, in a legally required Securities and Exchange Commission filing, that their company was hacked, and that the hack may end up costing Coinbase between $180 and $400 million, all told.According to that filing, Coinbase received an email from the hacker on May 11, saying that they'd obtained a bunch of information about Coinbase customers and their accounts, alongside other Coinbase documentation related to their account management systems and customer service practices. The hacker demanded $20 million from the company, which the company refused to pay.Coinbase officials have been keen to note that passwords and private keys were not compromised in the hack, so the hackers couldn't just log into someone's account and empty their crypto wallets or the real-deal money they might be keeping there, but they did access names, addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses, alongside the last four digits of some users' social security numbers, their government ID images, like drivers licenses and passports, and their account balances.All of which isn't as bad as passwords and private keys being stolen, but it's not good, either. The hackers, or people working with them, have reportedly been launching phishing attacks against some of the higher net-worth individuals whose information was stolen, those attacks—which usually involve tricking victims into divulging other information, like passwords—made a million times easier because the folks doing the attacks had that stolen information.What's more, and this isn't necessarily obvious from reading the pieces published about this hack, but it's important context surrounding all of this, people who have a lot of money in crypto-assets are increasingly likely to be targeted for other sorts of crimes, compared to people with a lot of wealth in conventional assets, like money, homes, and stocks.Case in point, in early May of this year, a trio of Florida teens kidnapped a man at gunpoint in Las Vegas, drove him to a remote desert area about an hour away, and then stole about $4 million in crypto and other digital assets, like NFTs.They apparently waited for him at his apartment complex and when he pulled up, they threatened him, and said they had his dad, and would kill him if he didn't get in their car, and then they got his account passwords and other information from him, once he was away from any possible help.In Canada, back in early November of 2024, the CEO of a crypto company based in Toronto was kidnapped during rushhour, forced into the kidnappers' vehicle and forced to pay a million dollars in ransom before he was released.According to a security firm that specializes in protecting wealthy people with crypto-assets, that CEO's kidnapping was the 171st instance of criminals using physical violence, including kidnapping, but also other types of robbery, to steal crypto assets; they also said there tend to be more such cases when the price of these assets is high.Well, the price of a bitcoin is high right now, more than $103,000 per coin, as of the day I'm recording this, and France and other Western European nations are seeing a spate of kidnappings of high net-worth crypto-holders, some of which have resulted in mutilation, as was the case with a 60-year-old man who was kidnapped in broad daylight, at 10:30am in Paris—four men in ski-masks pushed him into the back of a delivery van, and his kidnappers demanded his crypto-millionaire son pay a ransom; they cut off the older man's finger during the ordeal.The kidnappers demanded something like 5-7 million euros, which wasn't paid, and they were eventually captured by police. But law enforcement is seeing a lot of this sort of thing all over the world right now, people who made fortunes in crypto being kidnapped, and in some cases their friends and family, or partners, also being kidnapped, or kidnapped instead. Whatever the specifics, the person with the crypto-wealth is then hit up for a ransom.Often, the people being targeted are known to be wealthy because their wealth, their gains in this particular asset market, is publicized.The big concern amongst many people in the crypto-world right now, then, is that although the Coinbase hack didn't result in lost passwords or keys, the information that was stolen, including the balance of users' accounts, could make these users targets, giving anyone with access to this stolen data a list of people they might steal from, and information about where to find them, how to contact them, and how much they can probably hit them up for.On top of that, they can see who has had large balances in the past, how much cash they sold their holdings for, and who maybe previously had large holdings on Coinbase, but then transferred those assets to a private wallet—so even if they don't have large Coinbase balances, they possibly have large balances hidden on a harddrive somewhere.Crypto wealth is generally considered to be easier to steal, and to get away with said theft, because of its very nature; it's largely disconnected from traditional banking systems and many traditional banking regulations, and it's often simpler to launder crypto assets than real money, converting bitcoin into stable coins into other coins before then converting those assets into real money, for instance.So while Coinbase seems to be doing what they can to make their users whole, including paying back users whose information was lost in the breach, that information then used to phish them, successfully—so if you were conned out of money because the hackers got this information and then tricked you—Coinbase will pay you back what you lost.But it's not really possible to undo other, non-immediate damage, like the new level of threat some of these hacking victims maybe face, as the global economy gets weird, job security is iffy for many people in many industries, at best, and there's this list of people who seem to have plenty of money, that money held in more-stealable-than-usual assets, alongside what amounts to a map to where they can be found, and all sorts of information that paints an incomplete, but potentially leveragable, portrait of their lives.Show Noteshttps://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/0001679788/000167978825000094/coin-20250514.htmhttps://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/15/coinbase-says-hackers-bribed-staff-to-steal-customer-data-and-are-demanding-20-million-ransom.htmlhttps://techcrunch.com/2025/05/15/coinbase-says-customers-personal-information-stolen-in-data-breach/https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/24/magazine/crybercrime-crypto-minecraft.html?unlocked_article_code=1.Hk8.UV7K.VEEqHFsUu24g&smid=url-sharehttps://www.yahoo.com/news/florida-teens-kidnap-las-vegas-200918594.htmlhttps://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/kidnapping-toronto-businessman-cryptocurrency-1.7376679https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/may/04/french-police-investigate-spate-of-cryptocurrency-millionaire-kidnappingshttps://www.advisor.ca/investments/market-insights/the-reasons-behind-bitcoins-surge/https://www.statista.com/statistics/863917/number-crypto-coins-tokens/https://www.forbes.com/digital-assets/crypto-prices/?sh=c86585d24785https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coinbasehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptocurrencyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitcoinhttps://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0378437122005696https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meme_coin This is a public episode.

Onderzoeksgroep Project 11 daagt de wereld uit: wie erin slaagt om met behulp van een kwantumcomputer een specifiek onderdeel van Bitcoin-beveiliging te kraken, wint één Bitcoin. Het gaat daarbij nadrukkelijk niet om het volledig breken van het Bitcoin-protocol, maar om een kwetsbaarheid die optreedt als adressen op de blockchain al zijn gebruikt. Volgens Project 11 is die kwetsbaarheid theoretisch te misbruiken door kwantumcomputers, en zijn ruim zes miljoen Bitcoins daardoor potentieel niet veilig. De uitdaging staat een jaar open. In de aflevering wordt uitgelegd hoe Bitcoin precies beveiligd is: via publieke en private sleutels, waarvan alleen de laatste in handen is van de eigenaar. Als het publieke adres echter eenmaal zichtbaar is op de blockchain, kan het in theorie worden teruggeleid naar de private sleutel – mits je over een extreem krachtige kwantumcomputer beschikt. Daar wringt ook direct de schoen: het kraken van een private sleutel met behulp van kwantumtechnologie vereist een schaal en stabiliteit die huidige machines nog niet aankunnen. Toch wijst Project 11 op het belang van voorbereid zijn. Niet alleen technische infrastructuur, maar ook bewustwording is cruciaal in aanloop naar een toekomst waarin kwantumaanvallen wél realistisch zijn. In de prijsanalyse bespreekt Tim Stolte de recente koersbewegingen van Bitcoin. Terwijl het sentiment op de financiële markten verslechtert, met een dalende dollar en historisch laag consumentenvertrouwen, blijft Bitcoin opvallend sterk. De munt noteerde deze week rond de 88.500 dollar. Volgens Stolte speelt het toenemende wantrouwen richting centrale instellingen – onder meer door de openlijke confrontatie tussen Donald Trump en Fed-voorzitter Jerome Powell – een rol in de vlucht naar alternatieven als goud en Bitcoin. Altcoins blijven daarbij achter, wat volgens hem wijst op voorzichtigheid bij beleggers: men zoekt naar veilige havens, niet naar risico. Verder kijken we naar de voortgang van MiCAR, de pittige Europese regelgeving voor cryptobedrijven. Waarom zijn er tot dusver pas negentien vergunningen vergeven in Europa? Nederland loopt relatief voorop, maar in veel landen is het nog zoeken naar de juiste toezichthouder. In België is het nog altijd wachten op een implementatiewet. En er is een primeur: iemand heeft eindelijk een whitepaper geschreven die voldoet aan de MiCAR-eisen voor Bitcoin, omdat het originele document van Satoshi Nakamoto daar niet aan voldeed. Maar dat lijkt toch vooral op een marketingstunt. Co-host is Mauro Halve.

In this explosive breakdown, Kerry Lutz of the Financial Survival Network explores the radical theory that Washington has been quietly hoarding massive amounts of BTC—possibly over a million coins—through seizures, covert acquisitions, and even Satoshi Nakamoto's original stash.  Could skyrocketing Bitcoin prices allow America to wipe out its debt in one move? Is the government sitting on a digital goldmine it plans to deploy during a global monetary reset? What happens if the leftover Bitcoin is used to privatize and fully fund Social Security? From the collapse of FTX and the takedown of SBF to the sudden approval of Bitcoin ETFs and the rise of the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, the pieces may already be in place. This is not financial advice—this is geopolitical speculation on a red-pill level. Read the full article and find more from Kerry here: https://FinancialSurvivalNetwork.com
