They map the slow boil, money printing, 1971, the Fed, and why inflation finally forces attention. Gus frames Bitcoin as psychological relief, time preference, and a way to get your time back through DCA and self-custody. They confront institutional adoption, ETFs, stablecoins, and the Clarity Act as legitimacy ramps. The close lands on staying humble, stacking sats, and building conviction before the bag holders wake up.RELAI DISCLAIMERRelai sponsors this show/podcast and is authorized to provide crypto-asset services in Switzerland and across the European Union under the MiCA regulatory framework with its license issued by the French regulator, AMF (License No: A2025-006).

Dan also breaks down overcollateralization, volatility stripping, and why liquidity is the real cheat code. They confront the Ponzi accusation, and explain when selling Bitcoin to pay dividends can be rational capital management. The endgame is Bitcoin as global collateral, and a new hurdle rate for capital.RELAI DISCLAIMERRelai sponsors this show/podcast and is authorized to provide crypto-asset services in Switzerland and across the European Union under the MiCA regulatory framework with its license issued by the French regulator, AMF (License No: A2025-006).

They unpack Bitcoin as a new kind of property under English law, where 12 words look less like a password and more like the thing itself. The talk confronts why banning Bitcoin collapses into absurdity once you admit it is speech, math, and entropy. They connect censorship resistance to digital ID, age gating, and sovereignty. It ends with a clean pitch for policymakers: digital scarcity rewires everything.RELAI DISCLAIMERRelai sponsors this show/podcast and is authorized to provide crypto-asset services in Switzerland and across the European Union under the MiCA regulatory framework with its license issued by the French regulator, AMF (License No: A2025-006).

Manufacturing PMI stays stuck below 50, and the usual blow off top never shows. Ross links Bitcoin’s next move to expanding PMI, global liquidity, and financial repression where inflation outruns short rates. They confront why gold often leads Bitcoin, and why bonds quietly drain purchasing power. The episode challenges four year cycle thinking, and frames Bitcoin as a global macro asset in a fiscal dominance world.RELAI DISCLAIMERRelai sponsors this show/podcast and is authorized to provide crypto-asset services in Switzerland and across the European Union under the MiCA regulatory framework with its license issued by the French regulator, AMF (License No: A2025-006).

Host Bram Kanstein unpacks the fiat operating system: Scarcity Panic, High Time Preference, Identity Through Consumption, and Learned Helplessness. Bitcoin becomes the crack that exposes money creation, debt, and why “fiat nature” feels like reality. Self-custody, 12 words, flips sovereignty from theory into something you feel. Then comes the hard part: loneliness, community, and choosing to build.RELAI DISCLAIMERRelai sponsors this show/podcast and is authorized to provide crypto-asset services in Switzerland and across the European Union under the MiCA regulatory framework with its license issued by the French regulator, AMF (License No: A2025-006).

In this episode, I explore how a 117-year-old book called The Kybalion predicted the failure of fiat money 100 years before Bitcoin existed. We dive deep into the Cantillon Effect, why "hustle culture" is actually a monetary symptom, and how central banks use dark mental alchemy to manipulate belief.

Using ancient philosophy and hard data on financial stress, we confront how inflation mandates "institutionalized tanha" (unquenchable craving) and keeps the masses in survival mode.

Tyler Maroney reveals how a PI investigates a ghost, starting from cypherpunks, PGP, and public key cryptography. They confront Bitcoin’s early criminal PR era, and why governments still chase “first name unknown, last name unknown”. The conversation challenges easy Satoshi takes, and argues Hal Finney and Len Sassaman fit the motive, skills, and timing. It ties privacy, sovereignty, and conviction back to Bitcoin’s human roots.RELAI DISCLAIMERRelai sponsors this show/podcast and is authorized to provide crypto-asset services in Switzerland and across the European Union under the MiCA regulatory framework with its license issued by the French regulator, AMF (License No: A2025-006).
