  Hodlonaut: The Fight for Bitcoin — Bitcoin Core, the Capture Series & BIP-110 05.08.2026 2u 2min

  "We need Bitcoiners to fight for Bitcoin. If no one fights for Bitcoin, Bitcoin will very soon be dead." Hodlonaut is a Bitcoin citizen journalist, the founder of the Citadel21 zine, the man behind the 2019 Lightning Torch, and the person who told the simple truth about Craig Wright and then stood in the fire for five years over it. Most recently he is the author of the Capture series, a deep investigation into how informal power over Bitcoin Core was assembled, exercised, and defended. We recorded this on August 2, 2026, in the middle of the ColdCard fallout, and the grief of that moment runs underneath the whole conversation. From there we go all the way back: how he found Bitcoin in 2013, the Pirate Bay ethos, Citadel21, and the birth of Hodlonaut and the Space Cat. We get into the Lightning Torch as a three-month experiment in trust, the Craig Wright war and how stoicism carried him through it, and then the heart of it: the Capture series, the "priesthood" narrative around Core, the OP_RETURN uncap, the DEI and "extractive" playbook used to shut down criticism, why every line of code must serve monetary sovereignty, and his return to fully supporting BIP-110. This is a conversation about the human layer of Bitcoin, and why we have to fight for it. Subscribe so you never miss an episode. 🎙️ GUEST Hodlonaut — Bitcoin citizen journalist.

  Bitcoin Secures $1 Trillion and Has No Security Team | Luke de Wolf 25.07.2026 2u 40min

  "Bitcoin secures over a trillion dollars in value. It has no security team." Luke de Wolf is a cybersecurity professional and author of Defending Bitcoin. Luke spent his career defending critical infrastructure, the control systems behind power grids and gas pipelines. His claim: Bitcoin is the world's first decentralized critical infrastructure, and it should be defended with the same risk-management frameworks that protect the physical world. A trillion-dollar network with no security team. And Luke is a former BIP-110 skeptic who flipped to supporting it making him a moderate who pisses off both sides. We get into the CIA triad and why availability is the whole game, people as the weakest link and the Stuxnet lesson, the real cost of running a node over time, spam as a DDoS and the hidden tax on Bitcoin, the two CVEs behind inscriptions, and the full BIP-110 fight. We discuss why he flipped, the game theory of activation, soft fork vs hard fork, the intolerant minority, and whether BIP-110 even has a failed state. This is the defender's case for Bitcoin, and the fight is happening right now. Subscribe so you never miss an episode. 🎙️ GUEST Luke DeWolf — cybersecurity / critical-infrastructure professional.

  The Tyranny of the Clock | Scott Dedels, The Age of Time 20.07.2026 2u 19min

  "Most of the money problems we talk about with Bitcoin — they're not money problems. They're time problems." Scott Dedels — founder of Block Rewards and author of The Age of Time — says the clock is a technology. It was invented about 600 years ago, and somewhere along the way we forgot it was ever invented at all. His claim: the problem of time is upstream of the problem of money. Fiat was downstream of a civilization that had already agreed to be ruled by a machine that only moves forward, in the direction of consumption. We went from asking what is time to only ever asking what time is it. We get into the Prague Orloj and the birth of mechanical time, the 1944 essay that turned time into a commodity, Saturn as civilization's invisible operating system, why we stopped building 300-year cathedrals, AI and the information hyperstream — and Bitcoin as a ten-minute heartbeat no one controls.

  Bitcoin Mechanic — The Soul of Bitcoin (BIP110) 13.07.2026 1u 40min

  "21 million isn't a promise. It's a rule — and rules only hold if your node enforces them." Bitcoin Mechanic — of mining pool OCEAN — says Bitcoin is in a civil war, and most holders don't even know it's happening. The fight isn't over price. It's over who's actually in charge: Core or Knots, miners or developers — or the nodes that quietly outvote them all. We get into the Eye of Sauron turning toward Bitcoin, why 21 million is a rule and not a law of nature, what running Knots actually does, and the battle for the soul of Bitcoin.

  Bitcoin Against the Machine | Kent Halliburton, Sazmining 01.07.2026 1u 42min

  "Mining isn't just how Bitcoin gets made — it's a decentralized money printer." Kent Halliburton — CEO and co-founder of Sazmining — makes a claim that should bother everyone who only buys their Bitcoin: mining isn't just how Bitcoin gets made, it's a decentralized money printer anyone can run.

  A Titanium-Sized Post-It — James Caruso, Stamp Seed 29.06.2026 55min

  "Paper is where Bitcoin goes to die." James Caruso — co-founder and VP of Stamp Seed — joins the show with one of the most unlikely origin stories in Bitcoin: how a 70-year-old metal-stamping company stumbled into Bitcoin through its own search data, and became one of the most trusted cold-storage backups in the space. We get into why paper — and the gel pen you wrote your seed words with — is the weakest link in your stack, why titanium, what's actually in the box, and James's arc from get-rich-quick Robinhood trader to "it could drop 40% and I'm just buying more" conviction. Then the cold-storage deep end: single-sig versus multisig, planning for your heirs, and the most creative hiding spot we've ever heard — a seed plate disguised as a rock, sunk in a backyard pond. No batteries. No firmware. No third-party trust. Just a titanium-sized post-it.

  Bitcoin Is More — Tomer Strolight on Money, Rights & AI 22.06.2026 1u 43min

  "Bitcoin is a rights-protection entity." Tomer Strolight returns for his ninth visit — and reads four of his own essays start to finish, with conversation in between: Bitcoin Is More, Living With AI, AI Built to Survive, and This Is Not the End. We discuss why Bitcoin isn't a price but a superstate no government on earth can reach — even as Iran floats a Bitcoin toll in the middle of a war — why self-custody is the whole point, and how inflation's slow squeeze is finally being felt by everyone. Then it turns: three short stories about living with AI, and what we surrender when we let a machine do our thinking for us. No host intro, no warm-up. We open cold, on Tomer's voice.

  Bitcoin Is Under Attack | Matthew Kratter, Bitcoin University 15.06.2026 3u 18min

  "Bitcoin is not physical gold. You can kill Bitcoin." Matthew Kratter — who runs Bitcoin University, did a PhD in literature under René Girard, and ran global macro at Peter Thiel's hedge fund — joins the show to explain why he now holds nearly everything he owns in Bitcoin, and why he's become one of the loudest voices warning that Bitcoin is under attack from the inside. We trace the improbable path first: from Girard's seminar table to growing Thiel's $50M Roth into a $2 billion fund, and the 20 years trading that taught him to spot financial engineering "traps" — the same TradFi tricks he says are now being smuggled back into Bitcoin. Then it turns to the civil war happening right now: how Bitcoin Core blew open OP_RETURN and "went rogue," why spam and CSAM are an existential risk to node runners, what BIP-110 actually does, and who really controls the network (hint: not the miners, devs, or exchanges). His thesis throughout — consensus flows from culture — and his answer to all of it: stop being a spectator, run a node, and mine from home.

  Rehypothecation Is Cryptographically Impossible — Martin Matejka, Firefish CEO 09.06.2026 36min

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

  Matt Cole — He Built a Stock That Pays You Every Day 01.06.2026 1u 12min

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

  Matt Hougan — Bitcoin's Next Supply Shock 26.05.2026 59min

  Matt Hougan is the Chief Investment Officer at Bitwise Asset Management — one of eleven spot Bitcoin ETF issuers, managing over $10 billion. When family offices, RIAs, and pension consultants size their Bitcoin allocation, his is the analysis they read. This is the institutional case for Bitcoin in plain language: Bitcoin as two investments at once (digital gold plus a call option on becoming the world's apolitical currency), the math behind his $1.4 million by 2035 call, and why he thinks Bitcoin is about to repeat the supply shock that just took gold parabolic. If you've been trying to explain Bitcoin to the most sophisticated person in your life — send them this. We discuss: Bitcoin as two investments in one — store of value + call option on currency status The kinetic vs. monetary chaos lenses, and why both push Bitcoin up Why Harvard's endowment quietly went BTC + gold as their two largest 13F positions The $36 billion first-year ETF launch — 6× the previous all-time record Why Matt's personal price target is $1.4 million by 2035 The gold supply shock parallel — and why Matt thinks Bitcoin is next Quantum computing — manageable upgrade problem or existential threat?

  Why Bitcoin Needs Its Own Summer Camp | Camp Nakamoto 18.05.2026 50min

  Jeff Casler and Angelo Firenze don't run a Bitcoin conference. They run a Bitcoin camp. Jeff is a serial entrepreneur and MS survivor — co-founder of Camp Nakamoto and @btc_mass, with a thesis-forward "why this matters" voice. Angelo grew up on Sandy Island. He spent decades as director of the original family camp the property was built around — and now runs the Bitcoin version of the same idea. Every summer, the Bitcoin world boards another plane to another conference. And every summer, some of us come home wondering if we actually made a single real connection. This is the conversation about what happens when someone looks at that and decides to build the inverse — four days on a 66-acre private island in Lake Winnipesaukee, New Hampshire. Cabins. Campfires. All-inclusive meals including the Cattleman's Feast. A speaker series that doesn't feel like a speaker series because you're sitting with the speakers at dinner. June 18-21, 2026. I'm speaking there — and I said yes because I believe in what they're building. Their thesis is simple: the typical Bitcoin conference is great for introducing ideas. Camp Nakamoto is great for integrating them. You don't have five minutes after a keynote to ask your question — you have 72 hours. Larry Lapard, Tom Luongo, Efrat Fenigson, Joe Consorti aren't in a green room. They're at breakfast. Around the campfire at sunset. In the cornhole tournament. As Angelo puts it: the whole thing is the lobby. We also get the "last boat" moment — what Angelo realized after the first event in 2025, why he didn't believe it would work until the last ferry pulled away. The 2026 speaker lineup including Tom Luongo, Ben Justman, Efrat Fenigson, Joe Consorti, Seb Bunny, Luke Broyles, Anders Jensen, Matthew Lysiak, Kevin McKernan, Haley Lennon, Brandon Gentile, Beau Turner, Kyle Huber — plus Ainsley Costello playing live. The Cattleman's Feast partnership with Texas Slim's Beef Initiative. And the family case: why parents on the island let their kids run free in a way you don't see in modern society anymore. If you've ever wondered what the post-orange-pill phase actually looks like in person — not on Twitter, not in a conference hallway, but around a campfire with people who showed up for the same reason you did — this is the conversation. We discuss: Introduce vs. integrate — why ideas land differently when you have 72 hours with the speaker instead of five minutes after a keynote, and Angelo's design principle that "the whole thing is the lobby" The "last boat" moment — Angelo's emotional origin moment from the first event in 2025, why he didn't believe it would work until the last ferry pulled away, and what it taught him about the difference between selling tickets and building community The Cattleman's Feast — Texas Slim's Beef Initiative partnership, the grass-fed high-omega-3 steak that made attendees say "the best I've ever had," Peony Lane Bitcoin wine pairing, and why food became one of the strongest brand moments of the first event Kids running free — what happens to parenting when an island full of Bitcoiners decides to let their children explore, why it feels like 1950s parenting in the best possible way, and the case for bringing your family Why community in 2026 matters more than ever — Jeff and Angelo's "we need our peeps" thesis, the move from talking the talk to living the life, and what real-life Bitcoin community looks like after the orange pill metabolizes Subscribe so you never miss an episode. 🎙️ GUESTS Jeff Casler @BTCMSTHRIVING → x.com/BTCMSTHRIVINGmsbitcoinlife.com Angelo Firenze @beantownbitcoin → x.com/beantownbitcoin Camp Nakamoto @CampNakamoto → campnakamoto.com → code MATRIX for 15% off tickets 💰 SPONSORS & DISCOUNTS 🔑 Stamp Seed — Between 3-6 million Bitcoin are lost forever.

  Bram Kanstein: Bitcoin Is An Economic Psychedelic | EP274 12.05.2026 1u 16min

  Bram Kanstein returns to The Bitcoin Matrix. He's spent over three thousand hours studying money. He hosts Bitcoin for Millennials — now expanding into Freedom for Millennials — and writes essays connecting fiat money to consciousness, attention, and the design of modern life. This conversation picks up where his first appearance left off. Once you've truly understood Bitcoin — what comes next? Bram's answer is that the orange pill is just the entry point. The real work is what happens after: noticing the bandwidth tax that costs you 13 IQ points before you've even started thinking, recognizing Bitcoin as "engineered truth" — the only economic anchor we can verify is the same in both our heads — and naming the spiritual crime of a money system designed to keep your attention off the things that actually matter. He's also organizing a Bitcoin-and-psychedelics gathering in Colorado, has just published Bitcoin for Millennials (his book, built from his first 100 episodes), and brings Michelangelo's Florence — 279 years under hard money — into the room as evidence for what humans build when the unit of account doesn't betray them. If you've ever wondered why everyone around you who saw the same chart didn't see the same world — this is the conversation to send them. We discuss: The bandwidth tax — Mullainathan & Shafir's research showing financial worry costs you ~13 IQ points before you've even started thinking, and how fiat is engineered to keep that tax running Bitcoin as an economic psychedelic (Yoni Appleberg's frame) — the dissolution of inherited financial assumptions and what comes back online once the orange pill metabolizes Bitcoin as engineered truth — the orange shirt thought experiment, the map-and-territory problem, and why a verifiable monetary anchor changes consciousness, not just portfolios Michelangelo, the Medici, and the Florin — what 279 years of hard money built, and what our era can't, in Bram's reading of why long-arc human work has collapsed into the bandwidth tax economy Subscribe so you never miss an episode. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎙️ GUEST ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Bram Kanstein @BramK → https://x.com/BramK Bitcoin for Millennials podcast → @BramK on YouTube ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💰 SPONSORS & DISCOUNTS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔑 Stamp Seed — Between 3-6 million Bitcoin are lost forever.

  Pius Sprenger Shorted Subprime. Now He Sees It Again. 04.05.2026 2u 9min

  Pius Sprenger has a PhD in mathematics and spent twenty-five years on Wall Street. He was hired to Deutsche Bank in 2004 and ended up on Greg Lippmann's derivatives desk — the desk Ryan Gosling's character runs in The Big Short. In February 2007 he co-built the ABX index with Goldman Sachs and Bear Stearns. He held his short position for nearly three years while senior management told him he was wrong. He was right. He left Wall Street in 2020. Today he is a founding member of the Scientific Bitcoin Institute alongside Giovanni Santostasi and Steven Perino — peer-reviewed researchers applying the power law to Bitcoin's growth. Their math says $1M per Bitcoin in 8–9 years. $7–8M in 17 years. Falsifiable. Scientific. Not a guess. And he is sounding the alarm again. Wall Street is now packaging Bitcoin into structured products the way it packaged subprime in 2007. Pius has seen this movie. He has the receipts. If you've heard "$1M Bitcoin" and dismissed it as hyperbole — this is the conversation to send to whoever you're trying to convince. We discuss: The Bitcoin Power Law explained — adoption to the power of 3, network value to the power of 2 — and why the math gives you $1M in 8–9 years What it actually felt like to short subprime from inside Deutsche Bank for three years while conference rooms full of PhDs laughed him out The pattern Pius sees in Wall Street's Bitcoin entry — Strategy, STRC, the ETFs — and what negative price convexity means for the paper market One week in East Germany in 1985 — the Stasi, the whispering — and what a former Deutsche Bank trader recognizes in Western banking surveillance today Subscribe so you never miss an episode. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎙️ GUEST ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Pius Sprenger @PiusSprenger → https://x.com/PiusSprenger Scientific Bitcoin Institute → https://x.com/ScientificBTC ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💰 SPONSORS & DISCOUNTS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔑 Stamp Seed — Between 3-6 million Bitcoin are lost forever.

  The FCC Collected $6,790. Then They Came for Bitcoin ATMs. | Paul Tarantino | Ep 272 28.04.2026 1u 20min

  Paul Tarantino is the CEO of Byte Federal, one of the largest Bitcoin ATM networks in the country. Eighteen months ago on this show he told us Bitcoin wins by default. That Bitcoin is the last currency standing. That AI-generated fraud would break the credit-based payment system. He was right on all three. Now legislators across the country are coming for Bitcoin ATMs and framing it as consumer protection. Paul has spent three years building the most comprehensive data-driven defense of this industry anyone has produced. He's here to show you what's actually going on. If you use a Bitcoin ATM — or know someone who does — this is the conversation to send them. We discuss: Why the FCC has collected $6,790 of $208 million in VoIP fraud fines — and why Bitcoin ATMs are being scapegoated\ The regulatory asymmetry nobody is talking about — 98.8% of ATM transactions are legitimate\ Why banning Bitcoin ATMs is a wealth transfer from the 24.6 million unbanked Americans who use them\ The exit door Wall Street is trying to close before you walk through it Subscribe so you never miss an episode. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎙️ GUEST ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Paul Tarantino @PaulTarantino → https://x.com/PaulTarantino Byte Federal → bytefederal.com Fraud Prevention Report → bytefederal.com/fraud-prevention ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💰 SPONSORS & DISCOUNTS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔑 Stamp Seed — Between 3-6 million Bitcoin are lost forever.

  Bitcoin, Stoicism, and Time’s Edge 06.04.2026 1u 24min

  Nobody told Connor Dolan that the Stoics figured out Bitcoin 2,000 years before Satoshi — but after a year of research, he proved it. Connor Dolan — VP of Enterprise Sales at Unchained, former BlackRock and Capital Group — joins The Bitcoin Matrix to break down why Bitcoin and Stoicism are the two most powerful forces shaping how we think about time, money, and how to actually live. We cover why Bitcoin is the MAP and Stoicism is the COMPASS, how a plastic yellow piggy bank on a kitchen counter started Connor's lifelong obsession with money, why the most educated and successful people are always last to understand Bitcoin, what Memento Mori has to do with your sat stack, how modern monetary policy destroys your ability to delay gratification, why Bitcoin is the reverse marshmallow test, the moment Connor had to tell his wife that the thing he'd been calling the future of finance was down 80%, and how leaving BlackRock for Bitcoin was the easiest decision he ever made. "There are only two perfectly scarce resources in this world: time and Bitcoin." — Connor Dolan "It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live." — Marcus Aurelius Subscribe so you never miss an episode. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎙️ GUEST ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Connor Dolan → https://x.com/conhodlan ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💰 SPONSORS & DISCOUNTS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔑 Stamp Seed — 15% OFF stampseed.com | code MATRIX 🐟 Firefish — 0% fees on first loan through April 30 firefish.io/?ref=MATRIX | code MATRIX 🔐 Unchained — 10% OFF unchained.com/matrix | code MATRIX10 🏕️ Camp Nakamoto — 15% OFF campnakamoto.com | code MATRIX 💎 River — Up to $100 FREE Bitcoin river.com/matrix 🛡️ Meanwhile — Bitcoin Life Insurance meanwhile.bm | code YTPFYD ☕ Ora Cacao — 10% OFF snwbl.io/ora/CEDRIC02233 | code CEDRIC02233 🤝 Want to sponsor the show? thebitcoinmatrix.com/sponsors ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🙏 SUPPORT THE SHOW ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⚡ Strike → BitcoinMatrix@strike.me 💵 PayPal → paypal.biz/BitcoinMatrix 💚 Cash App → cash.app/$BitcoinMatrix 💜 Venmo → venmo.com/u/bitcoinmatrix 📬 PO Box → The Bitcoin Matrix, P.O.

  Bitcoin's iPhone Moment — STRC & the Conversion of the Financial System 01.04.2026 1u 49min

  Nobody could explain how we get from today to a Bitcoin Standard — until now. MarylandHODL21 and Cris Reed join The Bitcoin Matrix to break down STRC, Strategy's capital flywheel, and why very few people understand what's actually happening in the financial system right now. We cover why STRC is Bitcoin's iPhone moment, how two financial systems are running simultaneously, the apex carry trade, why real inflation is closer to 8% and what that does to every "safe" instrument you own, the M-NAV cycle and how Sailor is managing it, and how the bridge from fiat to Bitcoin is being built in real time. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎙️ GUESTS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ MarylandHODL21 on X → https://x.com/MarylandHODL21 Cris Reed on X → https://x.com/CrisReed ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💰 SPONSORS & DISCOUNTS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔑 Stamp Seed — 15% OFF stampseed.com | code MATRIX 🐟 Firefish — 0% fees on first loan through April 30 firefish.io/?ref=MATRIX | code MATRIX 🔐 Unchained — 10% OFF unchained.com/matrix | code MATRIX10 🏕️ Camp Nakamoto — 15% OFF campnakamoto.com | code MATRIX 💎 River — Up to $100 FREE Bitcoin river.com/matrix 🛡️ Meanwhile — Bitcoin Life Insurance meanwhile.bm | code YTPFYD ☕ Ora Cacao — 10% OFF snwbl.io/ora/CEDRIC02233 | code CEDRIC02233 🤝 Want to sponsor the show? thebitcoinmatrix.com/sponsors ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🙏 SUPPORT THE SHOW ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⚡ Strike → BitcoinMatrix@strike.me 💵 PayPal → paypal.biz/BitcoinMatrix 💚 Cash App → cash.app/$BitcoinMatrix 💜 Venmo → venmo.com/u/bitcoinmatrix 📬 PO Box → The Bitcoin Matrix, P.O.

  Peruvian Bull - 2026 Is Already Breaking Every Rule: Here's What Comes Next 09.03.2026 1u 8min

  In this episode, I sit down with Roberto Rios aka Peruvian Bull, and he didn’t come to play it safe. Fresh off breaking news the morning of recording, we kick things off with the Jane Street manipulation lawsuit and what it might mean for Bitcoin price action. We cover the terrifying thesis of The Great Taking, why you may not actually own the stocks in your brokerage account, China’s secret gold accumulation strategy and what it signals about the dollar’s future, the slow-motion collapse of Japan’s bond market, and how silver is finally breaking free from decades of paper price suppression. ––– Offers & Discounts ––– 🔐 Stamp Seed - Get 15% OFF Never loose your Seedphrase - Fireproof, crushproof and non-corrosive Use code: MATRIX || https://stampseed.com 🏕️ Camp Nakamoto - Get 15% OFF A Bitcoin conference meets summer camp, but on a 66-acre private island in the middle of New Hampshire's largest lake.
