  • The Big Print, Inflation & The End Of The Dollar | Lawrence Lepard
    Lawrence Lepard is an Investment Manager and Author of The Big Print. In this episode, he explains why the dollar system is “doomed,” how inflation is as much psychological as monetary, and why the Fed and Treasury are now trapped in a cycle of money printing and yield curve control. We explore why America may already be in a “fourth turning,” how gold’s surge signals a repricing of trust, and why Bitcoin is the ultimate escape hatch in a world of policy failure and political decay. Lepard also explains how U.S. intelligence agencies are using it to study hyperinflation as an existential risk, and why he’s convinced Bitcoin will hit $1 million. In this episode: - The Fed and the trap of yield curve control - The risk of inflation - Gold’s surge, Bitcoin’s inevitability, and the repricing of trust - Why America may be entering a “fourth turning” THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS: IREN RIVER ANCHORWATCH BLOCKWARE LEDN BITKEY Follow: Danny Knowles: https://x.com/_DannyKnowles or https://primal.net/danny Lawrence Lepard: https://x.com/lawrencelepard The Fed's Third Mandate (TFTC Article): https://www.tftc.io/the-feds-third-mandate-the-looming-credit-crisis-and-bitcoin/

  • Is Bitcoin Culture Dead? | Pete Rizzo
    Pete Rizzo breaks down how Bitcoin’s culture and institutions are being reshaped in 2025. From Trump’s executive orders and the creation of a strategic Bitcoin reserve to the rise of treasury companies and institutional adoption, we explore why this cycle feels different — and why that may not be entirely bullish for freedom money. We get into the shifting monocultures of Bitcoin, from grassroots self-custody to Saylor's vision. Rizzo explains why treasury companies must prove they can outperform Bitcoin itself and the risks if hundreds of them collapse in the next bear market. In this episode: - How institutions are changing Bitcoin adoption - Trump, strategic reserves & Bitcoin policy - The cultural shift in Bitcoin - Why treasury companies may struggle to survive - The next phase of Bitcoin culture THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS: IREN RIVER ANCHORWATCH BLOCKWARE LEDN BITKEY Follow: Danny Knowles: https://x.com/_DannyKnowles or https://primal.net/danny Pete Rizzo: https://x.com/pete_rizzo_

  • Why Every Company Will Hold Bitcoin | Freddie New
    Freddie New unpacks why the next wave of Bitcoin treasury companies could change the game, and why his new venture, B Hodl, is designed to be more than just another balance sheet play. From Lightning Network infrastructure and UK policy battles to raising fresh capital without leverage, Freddie explains how Bitcoin-only businesses can scale sustainably while strengthening the network itself. We dig into why so many treasury companies risk collapse in a bear market, how B Hodl is structured to avoid forced selling, and why the UK urgently needs a strong Bitcoin voice in both finance and politics. Freddie also explores why institutions will eventually be forced to hold Bitcoin, how mNAV multiples shape valuations, and why every treasury company needs to prove it’s building real infrastructure, not just stacking sats. In this episode: - Why B Hodl is more than a Bitcoin treasury company - How Lightning node operations create real Bitcoin-denominated revenue - Why avoiding leverage is key to long-term survival - Why every company will one day hold Bitcoin on their balance sheet THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS: IREN RIVER ANCHORWATCH BLOCKWARE LEDN BITKEY Follow: Danny Knowles: https://x.com/_DannyKnowles or https://primal.net/danny Freddie New: Freddie New: https://x.com/freddienew

  • Inflation, Liquidity, the Fed & Bitcoin | James Lavish
    James Lavish unpacks why the Federal Reserve, runaway debt, and global liquidity cycles are setting the stage for Bitcoin’s next explosive move. From stagflation and deficits to institutional rebalancing and treasury companies, James explains why Bitcoin is unlike any asset the Fed can control. We dig into why policymakers are trapped between inflation and recession, how trillions in debt force them to keep the Ponzi going, and why every rate cut is bullish for Bitcoin. James also explores the role of Black Swan events, how institutions dampen volatility while driving adoption, and why neutral, permissionless money is the only escape from today’s broken system. In this episode: - Are we heading for stagflation? - How $324T in global debt guarantees more money printing - The rise of treasury companies and institutional rebalancing - Why global liquidity is the key signal for Bitcoin’s price - What a Fed cornered by inflation means for the future of money THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS: IREN RIVER ANCHORWATCH BLOCKWARE LEDN BITKEY Follow: Danny Knowles: https://x.com/_DannyKnowles or https://primal.net/danny James Lavish: https://x.com/jameslavish

  • The Path to $10 Million Bitcoin | Eric Yakes
    Eric Yakes lays out why Bitcoin is on track for $10 million, and how cultural shifts, institutional adoption, and political realities are accelerating the path. From revolutions and mass movements to balance sheets and BlackRock ETFs, Eric explains why Bitcoin is unlike any other asset in financial history. We get into why qualitative forces - belief, culture, and narrative - drive Bitcoin’s price as much as math, how the rise of treasury companies and governments adopting Bitcoin could fundamentally change markets, and why neutral, permissionless money is the escape valve from today’s credit-driven system. Eric also explores what a $10M Bitcoin world might look like: from time preference shifts and new architecture to political legitimacy and global strategic reserves. In this episode: - Why Eric believes Bitcoin can reach $10M within a decade - How revolutions explain Bitcoin’s cultural momentum - The role of ETFs, treasury companies, and government reserves - Why narratives, not fundamentals, move markets - How neutral money could restructure capitalism and society - What a $10M Bitcoin world means for time preference, politics, and the future THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS: IREN RIVER ANCHORWATCH BLOCKWARE LEDN BITKEY Follow: Danny Knowles: https://x.com/_DannyKnowles or https://primal.net/danny Eric Yakes: https://x.com/ericyakes
