• Matthew Kratter: Bitcoin Core is Compromised - Here's Why 01.07.2026 1sa 27dk

  Matthew Kratter of Bitcoin University joins Michael Jordan on The Bitcoin Way podcast for a hard-hitting breakdown of the Bitcoin Core controversy: why Core developers are compromised, the network's migration to Bitcoin Knots, and what self-custody Bitcoiners must do now. Matthew covers UTXO bloat from ordinals and inscriptions, the uncapping of OP_RETURN, and how Core devs prioritized theoretical bloat over real attack surface. With 20% of nodes already on Bitcoin Knots, he explains BIP-110 - the temporary soft fork to reverse Core's changes. Plus: Michael Saylor's Ethereum DeFi pivot, the risks of Bitcoin-backed loans, and why Bitcoin plebs are the network's true immune system. Essential listening for anyone running a node, practicing self custody, or defending Bitcoin's decentralization. 🔑 Want to run your own node?

Bram argues that millennials are uniquely primed to understand Bitcoin: they came of age as the promised path of study, job, house, and retirement quietly stopped working, and having lived the shift from analog to digital, they instinctively grasp what digital scarcity really means. The conversation covers why the money in your bank legally isn't yours, why your stocks are just database entries held by the DTCC, why even a paid-off home is owned by permission, the hidden 'second job' of fighting inflation, and why Bitcoin is the one asset you can actually verify and hold yourself. Essential viewing for anyone serious about understanding Bitcoin’s real promise — and what it actually means to truly own something.
