Bitcoin financialisation MicroStrategy leverage ETFs investment strategy volatility diversification sovereign-level adoption financial tools insurance mortgages

Junseth is the co-founder of the legendary Bitcoin Uncensored podcast and a longtime Bitcoiner.

In this episode, we discuss whether Bitcoin has actually done anything yet, why financialisation might be both Bitcoins future and a serious threat, and how MicroStrategys could play a key role in that.

Keywords
Bitcoin mining centralisation block space economic power energy production sovereignty complacency mining pools financial institutions nation states financialisation

Bob Burnett is the Chairman and CEO of Barefoot Mining and board member of Ocean.

In this episode, we discuss why the future of Bitcoin mining is about much more than just hashing, how control of block space could determine who holds true economic power in a Bitcoinised world, and why building from the bottom up — starting with energy production — may be the only path to sovereignty.

We also get into complacency amongst bitcoiners, the issue of centralised mining pools, why financial institutions and nation states alike are waking up to the strategic value of block space and the future financialisation of block space.

THE CASE FOR BITCOIN w/ Joe Bryan

Guests
Joe Bryan
Keywords
Bitcoin inflation monetary system financial crises quality of life trust in society mental health family structures economic incentives

Joe Bryan is a Bitcoin educator and the creator of What’s the Problem?

In this episode, we discuss why our current system is rigged, how the hidden theft of inflation quietly corrodes everything from quality of life to trust in society, and why the “big red button” — the ability to print money — sits at the heart of so many global crises including the breakdown of family structures, mental health crises, and broken incentives all stem from the same monetary flaw. We also get into how this knowledge spreads, why people sense the system is broken even if they can’t articulate why, and why Bitcoin offers a hopeful, practical alternative.
