To close out 2025, I'd like to revisit a critical aspect that's being ignored – the economy itself. Ken Webster is a leading thinker in the circular economy field, and one of his many roles is with Earth4All, where he has been exploring the benefits of a Universal Basic Dividend. Ken and Catherine discussed this, and more aspects of circularity at an economic level back in 2023, and it's highly relevant today, as the challenges we face loom larger. Catherine says: Ken Webster is one of my circular economy heroes, and is widely acknowledged as one of the foremost thinkers in the field. From 2010 – 2018, Ken was Head of Innovation for the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, shaping current concepts of a ‘circular economy'.. Ken also co-wrote the book that first opened my eyes to the circular economy back in 2011 – Sense and Sustainability, co-written with Craig Johnson. One of Ken's best-known books, The Circular Economy: A Wealth of Flows, relates the connections between systems thinking, economic and business opportunity and the transition to a circular economy. I'm very keen to read one of Ken's most recent books, co-written with Alex Duff. Ken and Alex use a storytelling approach based on the The Wonderful Wizard of Oz to offer a new and compelling narrative about the future direction of our economy, calling for macro-economic system redesign. It's called The Wonderful Circles of Oz: A Circular Economy Story – you'll find links in the shownotes. Ken's written several more thought-provoking works on the circular economy, including ABC+D: Creating a Regenerative Circular Economy for All – also co-written with Craig Johnson, and we mention some of these as we go along. This was a wide-ranging conversation about system-scale issues and concepts. I tried my best to keep up with Ken's thinking as we explored some of the big ideas he has been working on, including: A Universal Basic Dividend – not to be confused with UBI, or Universal Basic Income. We discuss why a Universal Basic Dividend would be a good thing, how it would be funded and where the money would flow to. We move onto The Commons – what that really means, and how it could be better accommodated in our modern economies, in a meaningful and sustainable way. Ken talks about the rentier economy, and rentiers. If you're not familiar with that term, it's someone who earns income from capital without working – for example by owning property or land that is rented out to tenants; by owning shares or bonds that pay dividends or interest, and so on. We discuss why the economy isn't working for the vast majority of people around the world, and what's getting in the way of an ‘economy for all'. We talk about some of the signals for change, with people are starting to see the potential of a future with community, connection and caring – caring for each other, and for our Mother Earth. The potential of a future that's not all about ‘Work, Buy, Consume, Die'. I've split our conversation into two parts – the 2nd part is available here: 119 Bonus Ken Webster: the circular ECONOMY! Part 2 International speaker, author and strategic advisor, Catherine Weetman helps people discover why circular, regenerative and fair solutions are better for people, planet – and prosperity. Catherine’s award-winning book: A Circular Economy Handbook: How to Build a More Resilient, Competitive and Sustainable Business includes lots of practical examples and tips on getting started.

Republic of the Marshall Islands has launched a nationwide universal basic income (UBI) program that delivers regular payments to citizens
A Note from James:Tim Dillon is crazy—in the best way. Not “institution” crazy. Crazy smart. Years ago he told me things about Epstein, hustle culture, and how the world really works that felt outlandish then and obvious now. He's quirky, honest, and usually right about what to pay attention to. Also, he's flat-out funny. Let's bring Tim back and see how much of that old conversation still hits today.Episode Description:This redux revisits James's conversation with comedian Tim Dillon on narratives, media incentives, and why “it's all a game.” Tim argues that most public debates are programmed like a TV network—stars, storylines, and predictable reactions—while the real action is off-camera. They examine why certain stories (Epstein, “suppressed” segments, political theater) catch fire and others vanish, the line between authenticity and performance in comedy, and how creators can actually build careers without gatekeepers. It's a practical episode about staying sane—less who's right, more how to think.What You'll Learn:A “game” heuristic for news and politics: spot the incentives (access, ads, algorithms) before you react to the headline.An authenticity filter for creators: why work rooted in your own experience connects—and how to test if a bit or idea is “real enough” to spread.A simple media-diet protocol: cross-reference sources and avoid getting “programmed” into outrage cycles.Platform strategy 101 for comics and solo creators: post consistently, control distribution, and stop waiting for gatekeepers to bless you.Career anti-fragility for uncertain times: ignore hustle theater; build repeatable systems that survive algorithm and industry swings.Timestamped Chapters:[00:02] A Note from James — Why Tim's “crazy smart” observations aged well.[03:09] Ignorance vs. Happiness — “If you learn how the world works, you won't be happier—unless you make it fun.”[06:21] News Is a Bridge to the Next Ad Break — Access, scoops, and why some stories never see daylight.[08:25] History You Don't Hear About — Smedley Butler, coups, and how missing chapters change the plot.[10:28] The Epstein Loop — From wall-to-wall coverage to silence—and what “access journalism” rewards.[15:38] How to Be Informed Without Going Insane — Cross-checking and opting out.[24:03] Rage, Class, and the Party at the Top — Why “difference” wins in politics and comedy.[38:04] UBI, Automation, and Fear Narratives — What's real risk vs. campaign theater.[01:24:14] Owning Your Distribution — Algorithms, streaming “cartels,” and why your social feed is your venue.[01:30:08] From Garage to Millions of Views — The Megan McCain sketch and shipping scrappy work.[01:49:57] Authenticity Over Everything — Why “true to you” outlasts polished but hollow.Additional Resources:Tim Dillon — Official site / podcast hub: https://timdilloncomedy.com/The Tim Dillon Show (Spotify): https://open.spotify.com/show/2gRd1woKiAazAKPWPkHjdsTim on Instagram (@timjdillon): https://www.instagram.com/timjdillon/JRE #1251 — Tim Dillon (Spotify): https://open.spotify.com/episode/12jteiLJyQaD85ynvJQBk9JRE #1390 — Tim Dillon (episode info): https://ogjre.com/episode/1390-tim-dillonABC hot-mic / Epstein backstory:Axios recap — https://www.axios.com/2019/11/05/abc-news-jeffrey-epstein-amy-robach-project-veritasThe Guardian — https://www.theguardian.com/media/2019/nov/06/abc-news-leak-raises-questions-about-unaired-interview-with-epstein-accuserSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, we break down why Bitcoin feels range-bound despite massive macro shifts happening in the background. We explore whether the traditional 4-year cycle is breaking, how Fed policy and liquidity signals are changing the game, and what a potential U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve could mean if the government begins accumulating BTC at scale. The conversation then expands into tariffs, UBI experiments, and how society might transition into an AI-driven future without destabilizing everything in the process. From there, we connect the dots between emerging military AR systems, space-based compute, and why energy, security, and infrastructure are becoming the defining narratives of the next decade. In the final stretch, we go deep on Bitcoin's long-term security budget problem, why fees alone may not be enough, and how NAT introduces a sustainable second subsidy for miners without changing Bitcoin's consensus rules. We also cover miner adoption, hash-power tipping points, and why this could be one of the most important developments in Bitcoin's history. Topics: First up, breaking down why Bitcoin feels range-bound despite massive macro shifts happening in the background. Next, tariffs, UBI experiments, and how society might transition into an AI-driven future without destabilizing everything in the process. and Finally, deep dive into Bitcoin's long-term security budget problem, why fees alone may not be enough, and how NAT introduces a sustainable second subsidy for miners Please like and subscribe on your favorite podcasting app!

Artificial intelligence is accelerating job loss faster than society is prepared for — and Universal Basic Income is now being discussed as a solution. In this episode, Eric Broadus explains why AI itself isn't the real threat, how UBI changes power dynamics, and why purpose, discipline, and responsibility matter more than guaranteed income. This is a grounded, calm discussion about the future of work — without hype or fear-mongering.https://5bestweightloss.com/?id=64d363e25f7785bc4f52b5f1 Support the channel https://cash.app/$Athlete4life Subscribe to ericbroadusyoutube.com Join spreaker.com/show/snakz-thoughts Join creators.spotify.com/pod/show/snakz-thoughts Use TubeBuddy: https://www.tubebuddy.com/ericbroadus

This week on Bitcoin Policy Hour, Zack Cohen, Zack Shapiro, and Ken Egan break down a change in U.S. financial policy: the Bitcoin for America Act, a bill that could allow Americans to pay taxes in bitcoin and fund a strategic national bitcoin reserve. We also explore Middle East Bitcoin adoption, why Harvard's endowment just made BTC its largest equity position, and the economic crisis facing young Americans — with new research showing it may take $140,000 a year just to survive in 2024.
The Bitcoin Boomers Ep. 02: Fiat's Final Days & AI Job Apocalypse | Larry Lepard, Dr. Bob Murphy, Bob Burnett, Gary LelandDr. Bob Murphy (NYU PhD, Mises Institute Senior Fellow, former Contra Krugman host) joins Bob Burnett, Larry Lepard, and Gary Leland for the most explosive Bitcoin Boomers episode yet. From the very first minutes the gloves come off: fiat's 100-year Keynesian experiment is mathematically doomed, AI is already wiping out entry-level jobs overnight, robots are on track to rival nation-states, and deflationary technology just made debt-based money impossible to sustain.

Conrad Shaw “So much of the labor market is driven by desperation. UBI shifts that. People can actually hold out for what they're worth or for work that aligns with who they are.” — Conrad ShawConrad is perhaps the most unique guest I have had in the 5 year history of this show and he is on to talk about Universal Basic Income (UBI) , a very unique topic that is growing in exposure.For almost a decade Conrad has dedicated his life and career to furthering the cause of Universal Basic Income (UBI).In 2016 he and his wife started a documentary called Bootstraps which focuses on following families who lived through the experience of a basic income.Since then, he has:* Fundraised for and operated a nationwide basic income pilot* Filmed a multi-year docuseries currently in post-production* Co-founded Commingle, a mutual-aid platform enabling communities to self-fund their own grassroots basic income systems* Worked extensively on messaging, outreach, and public education around income, stability, and societal transformationI learned a lot from Conrad and our conversation debunked my own myths about UBI. So a really important part of this episode is the truth about what Universal Basic Income (UBI) actually is — and what it is not.What Universal Basic Income (UBI) Is — And What It Isn'tUBI is the idea that every person receives a recurring, unconditional, baseline income — a financial floor that ensures no one starts the month at zero. It is not meant to replace work or equalize everybody's income. Instead, it shifts the starting point so people can make decisions from stability rather than desperation.What UBI is:* A stable, universal base-level income for all* A platform for economic mobility and personal freedom* A modernized, simplified social safety net* A tool for reducing the survival-based pressure in the labor marketWhat UBI is not:* It does not eliminate jobs* It does not cap how much people can earn* It does not remove incentives to work* It is not a socialist equal-wealth systemUBI reframes the labor market so people compete for work based on interest, alignment, and ability, not raw financial need.Practical Ways UBI Could WorkConrad's work goes beyond speculation. He has spent nearly a decade building practical UBI experiments, including the national pilot documented in Bootstraps (2016) and his current role with the Income To Support All Foundation and Commingle, a new community-driven model.He explains that UBI can be implemented through several pathways—government programs, private pilots, or community-level mutual aid—but none are simple. A government-led UBI requires political will and rethinking how we allocate resources. Philanthropic pilots can demonstrate impact, but they're temporary. Community models like Commingle allow people to pool and redistribute resources now, without waiting for legislation, but scaling them is challenging.What's clear is that executing UBI at any level is difficult, requiring trust, infrastructure, and cultural acceptance. Yet the difficulty doesn't diminish the need. Instead, it underscores why experimentation and new models matter.Individual Differences: Why UBI Supports People Doing What They're Meant to DoOne of the deepest connections between Conrad's work and mine is the concept of individual differences—the idea that every person brings a unique constellation of strengths, traits, interests, and abilities that make them naturally better suited to certain kinds of work.When people are trapped in survival mode, those natural gifts often go unused. They pick jobs they can get, not jobs that reflect who they are. Freedom from this paradigm reshapes careers in ways that benefit both individuals and employers, allowing people to walk away from toxic or exploitative conditions and take jobs they genuinely care about, leading to better performance and engagement.With a secure foundation, people have the psychological and financial freedom to make career decisions based on fit, not fear. This supports:* Better alignment between person and role* Higher engagement and intrinsic motivation* Better workforce outcomes because people choose work that matches their abilities* Greater societal value, as more people apply their genuine talents instead of defaulting to whatever job pays immediatelyFrom Conrad's perspective, this alignment is one of the most compelling aspects of UBI. When people are free to choose work that resonates with their abilities, the labor market becomes more efficient and more human. Employers gain workers who actually want to be there. Individuals gain a sense of purpose rooted in their authentic strengths.In a world where AI, automation, and job volatility make career paths uncertain, helping people express their natural abilities becomes more important—not less.How AI Fits Into the UBI ConversationAI enters this conversation as both a catalyst and a complicating force. As Conrad points out, technological change is accelerating so quickly that we can no longer predict which jobs will exist, which skills will matter, or how stable any given career path will be. This uncertainty puts enormous pressure on individuals—especially those who don't have the luxury to retrain, take risks, or weather employment gaps. UBI provides a stabilizing infrastructure in that landscape, giving people the freedom to adapt as work evolves rather than being overwhelmed by it.AI serves the UBI concept well because it highlights the importance of individual differences: as routine tasks get automated, the value of uniquely human abilities—creativity, empathy, problem-solving, and deep domain expertise—rises. UBI supports people in discovering and developing those strengths, while also offering society a buffer as AI reshapes industries faster than institutions can respond. In this way, AI doesn't replace the need for UBI—it makes the case for it even stronger.Why Making UBI Work Matters in an Uncertain FutureWe must acknowledge the reality: we are entering a period defined by instability—rapid technological change, unpredictable job markets, and widening gaps between opportunity and access. In such an environment, the old assumptions about steady careers, stable industries, and predictable pathways no longer hold.UBI becomes a tool for resilience. It doesn't solve every problem, but it gives people the space to adapt, learn, and navigate a chaotic future without falling into crisis. It creates room for people to pursue what they're best suited for, rather than what pays the most simply out of need.The conversation frames UBI not as a political ideology but as a human-centered adaptation strategy—a way to strengthen psychological well-being, improve labor market alignment, and provide society with a more stable foundation as the world accelerates around us.The truth is that UBI isn't easy; it's a fight against gravity in a system not built for change, but we are entering into an unprecedented level of uncertainty in all aspects of our lives- so we need to have creative and idealistic solutions This is a public episode.

They dig into how the “local love” voucher design works, why it targets rural counties instead of cities, and how funding it from solar and wind profits creates a clean-energy dividend model that looks a lot like a permanent UBI fund. From there, they turn to the newly reintroduced U.S. “Guaranteed Income Pilot Program Act of 2025,” led by Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman, and explain why tying payments to the local cost of a two-bedroom apartment risks becoming a landlord subsidy rather than a scalable universal basic income. The conversation hits core design questions: per-person vs per-household payments, including or excluding seniors on Social Security, and why calibrating UBI to cost of living can undermine competition between high-rent cities and cheaper regions. The hosts then unpack fresh randomized-control-trial evidence from Miracle Money California's $750/month cash transfers to people experiencing homelessness, alongside results from the Baltimore Young Family Success Fund, which gave young parents $1,000/month for two years.Show links:https://www.scottsantens.com/its-time-to-walk-the-walk-for-universal-basic-income-ubi/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gTgloPR0Awhttps://www.guaranteedincomeworks.org/data-from-baltimore-mdSee my ongoing compilation of UBI evidence on Bluesky:https://bsky.app/profile/scottsantens.com/post/3lckzcleo7s24See my ongoing compilation of UBI evidence on X: https://x.com/scottsantens/status/1766213155967955332For more info about UBI, please refer to my UBI FAQ: http://scottsantens.com/basic-income-faqDonate to the Income To Support All Foundation to support UBI projects:https://www.itsafoundation.orgSubscribe to the ITSA Newsletter for monthly UBI news:https://itsanewsletter.beehiiv.com/subscribeVisit Basic Income Today for daily UBI news:https://basicincometoday.comSign up for the Comingle waitlist for voluntary UBI:https://www.comingle.usFollow Scott:https://linktr.ee/scottsantensFollow Conrad:https://www.linkedin.com/in/conradshaw/Follow Josh:https://www.linkedin.com/in/joshworth/Special thanks to: Gisele Huff, Haroon Mokhtarzada, Steven Grimm, Bob Weishaar, Dorothy Krahn, Judith Bliss, Lowell Aronoff, Jessica Chew, Katie Moussouris, David Ruark,Tricia Garrett, A.W.R., Daryl Smith, Larry Cohen, John Steinberger, Philip Rosedale, Liya Brook, Frederick Weber, Dylan Hirsch-Shell, Tom Cooper, Robert Collins, Joanna Zarach, Mgmguy, Albert Wenger, Andrew Yang, Peter T Knight, Michael Finney, David Ihnen, Steve Roth, Miki Phagan, Walter Schaerer, Elizabeth Corker, Albert Daniel Brockman, Natalie Foster, Joe Ballou, Arjun ,' @Justin_Dart , Felix Ling, S, Jocelyn Hockings, Mark Donovan, Jason Clark, Chuck Cordes, Mark Broadgate, Leslie Kausch, Braden Ferrin , Juro Antal, centuryfalcon64, Deanna McHugh, Stephen Castro-Starkey, Tommy Caruso, and all my other patrons for their support.If you'd like to see your name here in future video descriptions, you can do so by becoming a patron on Patreon at the UBI Producer level or above: https://www.patreon.com/scottsantens/membership

Justin sits down with his longtime friend Dave Pechillo, a finance-minded, crypto-curious realist — to talk about money, freedom, relationships, AI, and why billionaires eventually get bored of everything.They unpack what real financial freedom looks like, why most people don't actually want infinite money, and how chasing status turns normal dudes into psychos. From Elon Musk and Trump to cartels, fentanyl, and the CIA, the conversation blends dark humor with sharp insight on how power, addiction, and AI are reshaping modern life.On the personal side, Justin and Dave get into trust vs love, codependency, why love is “disgusting,” and the real work of becoming self-aware. They share stories of addiction, recovery, and being “invisible” in public when you're at your lowest, and how humility and growth hit harder than money ever will.Later they spiral into the future of AI and crypto, universal basic income, and why this is the worst AI will ever be again. It's a raw, funny, and philosophical conversation about what it means to stay human while everything around you goes digital.In this episode:• Money vs freedom — how much is “enough”?• Billionaires, cartels & why power corrupts• Trust vs love and the fight to stay connected• Addiction, recovery, and self-awareness• AI, Bitcoin, stablecoins & the coming UBI future

He likens the buildup to pre–World War I hysteria—elites gambling with millions of lives while pretending it's about “defense.” [00:58:41] – Trump Claims ‘Unquestioned Power' Under the Insurrection ActKnight exposes Trump's claim that he can deploy the military domestically “without question.” He calls it a declaration of dictatorship, proving that MAGA's authoritarian ambitions are no longer hypothetical. [01:22:00] – Trump's “Pedophile Palace” Donor ListKnight lists the billionaire backers funding Trump's new White House ballroom—including Jeff Bezos, Lockheed Martin, and Coinbase—and calls it “the ultimate pay-to-play operation.” He says MAGA populism has morphed into oligarchic corruption. [02:29:17] – GOP's Digital ID Trojan HorseKnight uncovers a bipartisan bill led by Josh Hawley and Mark Warner to “protect children from AI companions.” He warns it's a stealth plan to impose a national digital ID system under the guise of child safety. [02:40:11] – Universal Basic Income & The Death of DignityKnight connects automation and UBI, arguing that elites are manufacturing economic dependency to control the population. He calls UBI “universal welfare slavery,” stripping people of purpose, work, and freedom in exchange for digital rationing.

The tech savants of Silicon Valley have issued dire warnings about an impending wave of unemployment due to advances in artificial intelligence and robotics. Essentially we're told humans are too slow, too unintelligent, and too expensive to be relied upon for economic productivity. We're obsolete and will soon be replaced. Don't worry we're told, universal basic income will feed and house us. But is this a good thing? What would UBI likely mean for the meaning of our lives?

In this conversation, I'm joined by mathematician, meditator, and machine learning engineer Blake Hull. We share stories of therapy, meditation, and Ram Dass, opening up after years of staying in the head, we unravel ideas of masculinity, expand on vulnerability, and dissect what it means to become safe in our own skin. We talk about anger as sacred energy, the strange geometry of emotion, and the daily ritual of saying “Good morning, Blakey Boy” - a quiet reminder that to heal isn't to change, it's to remember who you already are. This is a fluid dialogue that drifts through psychedelics, softness, the mathematics of love, friendship, wisdom - it's an episode that invites you to slow down, breathe, and feel something true. Together, The Great and Wonderful Blake Hull and I explore the space between intellect, emotion, and becoming what we are - I hope you'll join us.Themes: therapy · masculinity · meditation · Ram Dass · psychedelics · inner-child · emotional intelligence · spiritual growthNotable quotes from the episode:“When intellect finally kneels to emotion, that's when growth begins.” - Blake, describing the moment logic yields to honesty.“Emotions are information. You'd be stupid to ignore them.” - Blake quoting a college professor who first reframed feeling as intelligence.“When Jesus flipped tables, that was dharmic anger — anger in service of love.” - Jacob, reframing anger as sacred energy rather than chaos.“I feel most connected with you when you're feeling.”- Blake recounting a moment in therapy that changed his understanding of connection and vulnerability.“Maybe consciousness has always been doing this — reflecting itself through whatever new medium we invent.” - Jacob, near the close, connecting AI, identity, and awareness.“Anger isn't the problem. It's what happens when we stop letting it teach us.” - Blake, redefining emotional intelligence through presence.TIMESTAMPS:00:00:00 – Intro: Setting up, laughter, first exchange, Blake's Bio00:02:15 – “I feel most connected when you're feeling” – therapy and awareness00:05:00 – Logic vs emotion: learning how to feel again00:07:25 – Emotional intelligence and inner safety00:10:45 – Anger as sacred energy (“dharmic anger”)00:12:10 – Modern society, Idiocracy, and humor as medicine00:15:23 – Aldous Huxley, psychedelics, and self-reflection00:16:09 – Paul Stamets, microdosing, and consciousness00:20:00 – Mushrooms, meditation, and integration00:26:00 – Masculinity and vulnerability00:31:00 – Meditation: honesty over peace00:36:03 – “Good morning, Blakey Boy” – the inner-child ritual00:40:03 – Ego, death, and Ram Dass on becoming somebody00:45:00 – Comic relief: fart jokes and humility00:50:00 – Math and metaphysics: when numbers become poetry00:58:48 – Math as beauty and the language of existence01:00:26 – Group theory, triangles, and the philosophy of structure01:02:06 – Did humans discover or invent math?01:10:00 – Humor, curiosity, and teaching through questions01:13:34 – The future of math, AI, and physics (the long view)01:14:13 – Ray Kurzweil and his father's digital journals01:15:15 – iPhone, exponential tech, and AI acceleration01:16:00 – Touchscreens, prediction, and futurism01:20:00 – Consciousness and machine learning01:30:00 – Human identity in the age of algorithms01:37:01 – AI anxiety, UBI, and the ethics of automation01:43:56 – Consciousness itself: What is it, really?02:00:00 – Journaling, memory, and the desire to preserve the self02:14:00 – Humor as grounding: “Even the enlightened still fart.”02:20:00 – Compassion as technology02:31:04 – Returning to therapy: “I feel most connected when you're feeling.”02:40:00 – Closing reflections, gratitude, and quiet laughter#JunkyardLovePodcast #BlakeHull #EmotionalIntelligence #Masculinity #Mindfulness #Meditation #InnerChild #TherapyForMen #ModernSpirituality #AIConsciousness #MachineLearning #SelfAwareness #PodcastEpisode #ListenNowHit subscribe for new episodes, we'll see ya next time.

For decades, fighting poverty meant one thing: charity. But what if there's a better way? What if instead of just giving aid, we invest in people's potential? A new wave of innovation is doing just that. From tiny loans that launch businesses (microfinance) to using the simple mobile phone as a digital bank, the game is changing. We're even testing the radical idea of giving people cash with no strings attached (UBI) and finding they use it to build better lives. Our latest article explores these hopeful, unconventional tools that are built on a powerful new principle: empowerment.

A no harm provision is essential in UBI policies.● Basic income can significantly improve public health outcomes.Inequality, not just poverty, affects child development.● UBI can strengthen democracy by enhancing civic participation.● The impact of basic income in prisons can reduce crime.● Historical experiments like the orphan trains reveal the importance of family over geography.● UBI is increasingly necessary for Gen X retirement planning.● Automation poses a threat to job security, necessitating UBI.● Addressing immigration concerns is crucial for UBI acceptance.● The societal narrative around fairness influences public perception of UBI.See my ongoing compilation of UBI evidence on Bluesky:https://bsky.app/profile/scottsantens.com/post/3lckzcleo7s24See my ongoing compilation of UBI evidence on X: https://x.com/scottsantens/status/1766213155967955332For more info about UBI, please refer to my UBI FAQ: http://scottsantens.com/basic-income-faqDonate to the Income To Support All Foundation to support UBI projects:https://www.itsafoundation.orgSubscribe to the ITSA Newsletter for monthly UBI news:https://itsanewsletter.beehiiv.com/subscribeVisit Basic Income Today for daily UBI news:https://basicincometoday.comSign up for the Comingle waitlist for voluntary UBI:https://www.comingle.usFollow Scott:https://linktr.ee/scottsantensFollow Conrad:https://bsky.app/profile/theubiguy.bsky.socialhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/conradshaw/Follow Josh:https://bsky.app/profile/misterjworth.bsky.socialhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/joshworth/Special thanks to: Gisele Huff, Haroon Mokhtarzada, Steven Grimm, Bob Weishaar, Dorothy Krahn, Judith Bliss, Lowell Aronoff, Jessica Chew, Katie Moussouris, David Ruark,Tricia Garrett, A.W.R., Daryl Smith, Larry Cohen, John Steinberger, Philip Rosedale, Liya Brook, Frederick Weber, Dylan Hirsch-Shell, Tom Cooper, Robert Collins, Joanna Zarach, Mgmguy, Albert Wenger, Andrew Yang, Peter T Knight, Michael Finney, David Ihnen, Steve Roth, Miki Phagan, Walter Schaerer, Elizabeth Corker, Albert Daniel Brockman, Natalie Foster, Joe Ballou, Arjun ,' @Justin_Dart , Felix Ling, S, Jocelyn Hockings, Mark Donovan, Jason Clark, Chuck Cordes, Mark Broadgate, Leslie Kausch, Braden Ferrin , Juro Antal, centuryfalcon64, Deanna McHugh, Stephen Castro-Starkey, Tommy Caruso, and all my other patrons for their support.If you'd like to see your name here in future video descriptions, you can do so by becoming a patron on Patreon at the UBI Producer level or above: https://www.patreon.com/scottsantens/membership#universalbasicincome #BasicIncome #UBI
Bitcoin dropped to $106K after a sudden Friday sell-off, triggering panic across crypto markets—but Swan's team remained calm, stressing the long-term thesis is unchanged.John Haar and Isaiah noted that Bitcoin fell just 10% while altcoins crashed 50–90%, underscoring Bitcoin's liquidity and resilience.The team compared the pullback to past cycles, arguing this is not a cycle top but typical mid-bull market volatility.Discussion on Fed Chair Powell signaling an end to QT and potential rate cuts—seen as a tailwind for Bitcoin as monetary easing returns.John highlighted data showing Bitcoin rose 750% during the Fed's tightening cycle, disproving the myth that Bitcoin only thrives under easy money.A deep dive into the Fed's balance sheet showed that long-dated Treasury holdings have never decreased since 2008, signaling systemic dependence on debt monetization.Chamath Palihapitiya's claim that quantum computing could break Bitcoin in 2–5 years was debunked—experts and developers agree it's decades away and Bitcoin can adapt.The team explored how AI could reshape the economy, potentially displacing workers and pushing governments toward UBI—but also creating new industries and efficiencies.Brady and John debated whether UBI could be socially beneficial or harmful; both agreed Bitcoin offers protection in any fiat debasement scenario.The show wrapped with reactions to Larry Fink's 60 Minutes appearance comparing Bitcoin to gold and Elon Musk's recent positive Bitcoin comments.
