Chat_158 – Is The Bitcoin Mission Fading? with Stephan Livera
“Of course, central banking, fiat money is bad, but nevertheless, maybe AI and robotics and this productivity is going to be really beneficial to the global economy, not just the U.S. economy.
We’re going to start to see the liquidity, the whole U.S. PMI go up, and that’s going to cause Bitcoin NGU. That’s kind of how I’m seeing this next year or two.
I think we’re going to see a lot of AI, productivity and extra liquidity coming in. So I am very bullish on this coming year.”
~ Stephan Livera
The Bitcoin landscape has changed dramatically over the last few years, leading many to ask: is the cypherpunk ethos fading away?
I sit down with the legendary podcaster Stephan Livera to explore the tension between ideological purity and the pragmatic reality of global adoption. We dive deep into the “Power Law” of Bitcoin’s growth, why our timeframes might be all wrong, and the controversial role of stablecoins as a stepping stone. From the mechanics of Spark and Ark to the arbitrage strategies of treasury companies, we cover how the ecosystem is evolving to meet the world where it is. Are we losing our way, or simply maturing into the financial system of the future?
