“You must not work hard for something that somebody else can make an infinite amount of for free at no cost and no contribution. If you are working hard for something, do it for something that is hard to make. That is the point of money.
That is the point of society. It is an antithetical to cooperation and basic common sense to work for something. It just means you’re working for them.
If they can print trillions of it for free, you’re just working for them. Stop working for them and use a money that has the same rules for everybody. And trust me on a long enough timeline that will pay off like you could not believe.”
~ Guy Swann
 
I sat down with Walker and Will Reeves (CEO of Fold) for a real-world, no-fluff conversation about what it actually means to live on a Bitcoin standard. We broke it down: why saving in fiat feels like running uphill, how Fold makes it dead simple to start stacking, and what it looks like to bring your family into Bitcoin without turning your life upside down. We talked about the slow grind of inflation, the hidden cost of working for a money they can print endlessly, and why saving in Bitcoin is not just sane—it’s essential. Will shares some powerful insights on building tools that meet people where they are, and I offer my own experience using Fold to stack quietly, consistently, and meaningfully.
Big thanks to Walker and Will for an awesome conversation.

What if the real issue is actually much deeper than how to deal with spam? Everyone is arguing about mempool settings, who gets to decide the policy, what spam is, can it be filtered, and what the consequences of doing so are on the network. But this all stems from a much more serious and too often ignored issue, something that still seemingly VERY few people are doing anything concrete about: that Bitcoin has no miners, it has hashers and barely a handful of centalized pools that control what goes into blocks…How does this relate to the spam issue, and can anything be done about it? This is a crucial episode for anyone who wants to understand the OP_RETURN wars.

In this episode, I break down one of the most contentious mempool debates in Bitcoin’s recent history — the proposed removal of OP_RETURN limits. I explore what the change actually means, why it’s causing such a stir, and what both sides are getting wrong. Is this a technical clean-up or a social signal with dangerous implications? Could it quietly invite back the crypto spam Bitcoin has fought to shed? I do my best to separate the signal from the noise, stealman the arguments, and offer my own perspective on why this fight matters more than it seems — and maybe, why it shouldn’t have started at all.

Have you ever been tempted by the glittering world of crypto, with promises of easy money and astronomical gains? This week, I’m diving into a thread from someone who’s been in that world for 12 years, detailing all their painful mistakes. From chasing ICOs and getting social engineered out of funds, to buying into DeFi bubbles and getting caught in exchange collapses, their story is a stark reminder of the risks involved. What can we learn from their journey, and how does it highlight the fundamental difference between chasing tokens and understanding Bitcoin? Join me as I dissect this cautionary tale and reinforce the simple lessons that could save you a world of pain.

Bitcoin Core is in the spotlight again — and not in a good way. In this roundtable, Jeff Swann, Simple Steve, Bitcoin Mechanic, and I dig into the growing divide over mempool policies, the latest controversial pull request, and what it means for node sovereignty. Why is Core removing user configurability? Are we witnessing a philosophical shift away from Bitcoin’s foundations? And more importantly — who’s really in control of your node? This conversation is raw, fiery, and filled with high-level critique, speculation, and serious concerns about Bitcoin’s future. If you’ve been hearing about “spam,” “filters,” and “dickbutts” on Bitcoin Twitter and want to know what the hell it’s all about — this is the episode.

What if the true barrier to a world of seamless micropayments isn’t technological, but psychological? In this episode of Bitcoin Audible, we revisit Nick Szabo’s classic essay, “The Mental Accounting Barrier to Micropayments,” exploring why even with lightning-fast, low-cost Bitcoin transactions, the smallest payments might never take off as expected. Can new monetization models, AI agents, and value-for-value systems overcome the hidden costs in our minds-or will human cognition always set the lower bound on how small a transaction can be?

“For me, the most important war, the thing that we are fighting for in the world today more than anything else for me is the spirit of the West. The spirit of the West has been under attack by globalists, by fucking adversaries, the trader parasite money changer class. That class, whoever the fuck that is, has been looking to destroy the productive spirit and soul of the West in any way that it can. Weaponizing everything from Chinese to fucking Indians to central banks to everything. And if that war can be fought without dropping fucking bombs and fought in a non-kinetic manner through economic means, that is the win of fucking wins in the history of humanity.”
~ Aleks Svetski
What happens when you put an Austrian-leaning Bitcoiner and a self-described mercantilist in the same room to debate the future of America’s economic policy?
In this special re-release from the Liberty Lockdown Podcast, hosted by Clint Russell, I join Alex Svetski for a spirited roundtable on tariffs, the US-China dynamic, and the existential questions facing the West.
Are tariffs a necessary evil to restore American industry, or just another tax that will hollow out the middle class? Can a nation preserve its culture and sovereignty without sacrificing economic freedom? And is Trump’s chaos a sign of strategic genius or just more turbulence for a world already on edge?
We dig into the real-world consequences of policy, the role of great men in history, and whether Bitcoin is the answer—or just a hope for the next generation. Special thanks to Clint Russell and Liberty Lockdown for hosting this debate and letting me share it with you here.Link to original episode on Liberty Lockdown: DEBATE: The US vs China/Guy Swann vs Alex Svetski (Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmELRv_Y8H8)

New technologies demand a better imagination. Old models will break, and new, unexpected, and wild ideas will replace them. In this episode, I dive into David Bennett’s wild “Forest Walker” concept. Can Bitcoin mining actually tip the scales on ideas that couldn’t breach the barrier into economic sustainability? Could a fleet of autonomous, Bitcoin-powered forest robots be the answer to catastrophic wildfires, or is it too much complexity in a world that needs simple solutions? Let’s dig in and see if this crazy idea is really as far-fetched as it sounds—or if it’s exactly the kind of out-of-the-box thinking Bitcoin was made for.

“This over-developed brain wiring supercharged our interest in scarce assets and our drive to obtain them. Behaviorally, this may have amounted to making us weirdos who collected seashells, simply because we couldn’t help but value their special rarity. But as we’ll explore, that odd behavioral quirk may have made all the difference for our species.” — Jesse Myers
What if the secret to humanity’s dominance wasn’t intelligence or brute strength, but a weird obsession with rare objects? Today we dive into a new and wildly interesting piece from Jesse Myers’ that tries to piece together evidence from pre-ancient history that may explain not only the importance of money in civilization, but that it may be more fundamental to the existence of our species than we even realize.Tune in as we dive into the evolutionary roots of money, the power of abstract thought, and what it all means for the future of value.Links Mentioned in This Episode

“All fiat dies because it’s a trusted token that governments can arbitrarily change. Every fiat with every single powerful military behind it fell when the entity decided that they were just going to change the rules. And the military didn’t protect them, the military protected them abusing the rules from the population.Argentina’s military did not protect the Argentine population from hyperinflation. It protected the government from a revolution. The Venezuelan, the Zimbabwean, the huge list of fiat hyperinflations, the military was not your friend. It did not back the currency. It protected the government of their ability to defraud the population and eviscerate everyone’s life savings, eviscerate their paychecks, and make the entire country poor to keep the elite rich.”
~ Guy Swann
Bitcoin isn’t part of the crypto casino—it’s something entirely different. In this conversation with Rajat Soni, we break down why Bitcoin operates more like language than a speculative asset and why trusted money inevitably falls apart. We explore the network effects that will keep more dollars chasing Bitcoin forever, the myth that the dollar is backed by military power, and why Bitcoin’s constant bid will bring long-term stability.
We also get into why altcoins can’t survive as global money, how the entire stock market has turned into a gambling machine, and the harsh reality of the U.S. government’s financial position. But beyond all of this, what is the most important downstream effect of Bitcoin? We dive into it all.
