    Secessio plebis - Stop Using Their Systems Mar 20, 2023

    What is Secessio Plebis and how does it relate to bitcoin? What can we learn from history? The banking crisis and economic breakdown of the worlds major economic powerhouses seems to be coming to a climax. What can YOU DO abut it? Maybe it's time to begin your personal Secessio Plebis.

    More bank news this week including major news breaking after the recording of this podcast. This could be the beginning of the Fed's pivot from Quantitative Tightening to Quantitative Easing. With our current cocktail of high interest rates and high inflation this may prove disastrous tipping us firmly into recession if not worse.

    Is Your Money Safe? The collapse of Silvergate and SVB Mar 13, 2023

    In my opinion the United States banking system is showing great weakness. This weeks collapse of two large banks demonstrates this. These banks collapsed for different reasons but both demonstrate the inherent risks of a fractional reserve banking system.What is going on? What does it mean for you? Is this going to affect the economy or you?

    Let's dive in..

    Bitcoin and NFTs - Ordinal Inscripts and Jpegs on the blockchain Feb 20, 2023

    It seems all of Bitcoin Twitter and a good portion of the Bitcoin podcast / Youtube has been discussing "NFTs on Bitcoin". There is a lot of talk, a lot of noise and probably some misinformation.

    Nostr, Nigeria and the SEC Feb 13, 2023

    It seems everyone in Bitcoin Twitter is talking about Nostr these days. What is it? Why is it important? Also, it seems that Nigeria is threatening to tear apart. Whats going on there seems to be all related to money. And the SEC seems to be wanting to go after every crypto product and company under the sun.

    The Evil Empire Feb 06, 2023

    "It's not that I like the Empire. I hate it, but there is nothing I can do about it right now". When Luke tells Obi-wan Kenobi these words during the early part of the Star Wars movie the sense of hopelessness is almost palpable. But it turns out of course that Luke CAN make a difference. In a very short period of time he is thrown into the war against a tyrannical government controlling the galaxy. He made a difference.

    Maybe you feel like Luke did because you have no control. Governments around the world are printing money like it means nothing. Inflation is climbing. There are multiple countries on the edge of hyperinflation events. By virtually every metric the average person is losing the financial battle. But Bitcoin brings hope and the possibility of future based on sound money. A way to combat the Evil Empire while not having to lift a blaster.

    What to Tell That Person Jan 23, 2023

    If you have been a Bitcoiner long enough this will happen to you ... someone you know will talk to you about some coin that they heard was "better than bitcoin". A better investment, a better store of a value, a replacement for bitcoin, whatever. Let's dive into why, odds are, that's just not true..

    The world is awash in debt. The US leads the world economies (we're number one!!!) in amount of debt (31.5 trillion thank you very much). Who is owed this money? What will happen when we can't pay the debt? There are many questions when it comes global debt and the effect on the global economy.

    Business Cycles and Government Intervention Dec 26, 2022

    The Austrian and Keynesian economist view government management of economic cycles differently. The Keynesian economist have a guiding principle that the government is there to guide and manage the economy intervening during times of growth and recession. Of course the the Austrians are of the view that the government should be hands-off.

    Spending vs Saving Dec 19, 2022

    This spending vs saving narrative is one of the major differences between Keynesian and Austrian economics. Keynesian logic is that people in a nation shouldn't be "savers". They should be out spending money - driving the economy. It's your duty to spend and not save. Austrians think that savings is an important component of any healthy economy. Of course these concepts are at cross-purposes. Let's dig in!!

    Inflation and Deflation Dec 12, 2022

    The Keynesian economics believe that deflation is bad and "moderate" inflation is good. Austrians believe deflation is a good thing and inflation by money printing is a bad thing. History is proving the Keynesians are probably incorrect. Will the elite listen before it's too late (or do they even care?).

    An Overview of Austrian and Keynesian Economics Nov 28, 2022

    There are two main theories of macro economics - Austrian and Keynesian. Austrian economics developed in the late 1800's Austria while Keynesian economics was developed in the environment of the 1930's Great Depression.

    I believe that it's pretty indisputable that the majority of the countries of the world operate under what amounts to Keynesian economics. I believe that these policies are what are bringing us to the brink of a Global Depression.

    In today's episode I give an overview of the two economic theories, a bit of history and the major differences between them.

    The Great Unwinding Nov 21, 2022

    With the abrupt collapse of FTX it is certain to bring more cleansing to the ecosystem. While it can be hard to keep track of who is solvent and who is failing, let's dive in and take look. The next fail whale may be just around the corner. And how is the FTX hacker (possibly) suppressing the price of ETH?

    My Long Term Plans Nov 14, 2022

    Having been in "crypto" for almost a decade has given me a longer term perspective. I have seen exchanges die (not just FTX!), been rug-pulled, lost money to scammers and wasted money on worthless "assets".

    This current crypto crisis has me thinking yet again about my long term future with crypto. Join me for the discussion.

    A lot has transpired since Sunday night's recording. I thought it would be best to do a shorter special episode to discuss this and the ramifications on the market moving forward.

    Is Alameda Going to be Celsius 2.0? Nov 07, 2022

    This week's news has Twitter all riled up. And it wasn't just about Elon's taking over. It seems that the FTX Exchange of Sam Bankman-Fried may be a little too cozy with Alameda Research. And Binance will be selling all their FTT tokens.. Is this all related? Will it crash the market? Does it matter?

    News, Notes and more Regulation Talk Oct 31, 2022

    There was a lot of news this week! It seems we continue the inexorable slide to a worldwide Great Depression. With interest rates spiraling up (and choking off long term capital expenditures) and inflations rates continuing to move higher it's almost inevitable at this point.

    The battle for how crypto regulations will develop continues to be fought. You should take the time watch the Youtube session between Erik V and SBF about Sam's draft legislation proposal.

    And BTC (as well as the rest of the crypto market) finally makes a move of more than 100 dollars ...

    Is the IMF Bad for Developing Countries? Oct 17, 2022

    The IMF and the World Bank have been around since 1945. The goal of the IMF is "The International Monetary Fund (IMF) works to achieve sustainable growth and prosperity for all of its 190 member countries. It does so by supporting economic policies that promote financial stability and monetary cooperation, which are essential to increase productivity, job creation, and economic well-being." Are these goal and policies helpful to the countries receiving them? Research shows that it might not be helpful.

    Let's discuss both this and a possible solution.

    Are Reversible Transactions a Good Thing? Oct 10, 2022

    A recent study has voiced the opinion that reversible transactions on a blockchain are a good idea as a way to combat hacking. Unfortunately, this is a simplistic worldview. The reality is that being able to roll back blockchain activity has unintended side effects that end up harming people not even involved in the hack. Let's discuss!

    Is This the Deep Breath Before the Storm? Oct 03, 2022

    For years I have held the thesis that there would be some point in time when the game of fiat currencies backed by "faith and trust" in government would fall like a badly built house of cards. With the kickoff the of global pandemic and subsequent governmental reactions (including accelerating national debt levels) I reasoned that the time of reckoning was drawing nearer.

    With the beginnings of the rise of various inflation rates I started saying on the podcast that basically 2023 should be the worse part of the recession. That still may prove to be true but I am very strongly starting to believe it will be in the next few months (say three to six months) instead of the second half of 2023.

    This weeks news is packed full of backing for those views. Inflation is beginning to spike sharply in a number of countries. As an example, the Netherlands are reporting 17.1% inflation for September. A number of institutions are experience severe credit issues. Energy production is down. Energy prices in Europe are spiraling upward. The war in the Ukraine is continuing to drag on. Banks and various other companies are beginning to say they don't have liquidity (ie .. cash) to continue. Apparently without a governmental intervention (ie .. injection of cash via creation of more debt) the majority of the pensions in Britain would have been insolvent last week.

    So let's dive into the news and remember why we stack sats!!!!!!!

    The Macro Environment and the Effect on Crypto Prices Sep 26, 2022

    The macro environments (inflation, world events, basic commodities and energy, as well as stocks, bonds etc) definitely affect crypto currency pricing. I discuss how these unprecedented times are keeping crypto a "risk on" asset and what it will take to decouple from these traditional financial markets.

    More Fun with Numbers Sep 19, 2022

    It's important when investing in cryptocurrencies to understand some of the basic math behind tokens - often called "tokenomics". In this episode we look at bitcoin's total market cap and what it would take to have bitcoin worth REALLY large amounts as well as discuss what the debt to GDP ratio means and what potentially could happen as a number of sovereign nations are at historically high debt to GDP ratios.

    Ethereum Merge - Special Episode! Sep 15, 2022

    The culmination of years of work is occurring tonight with the "merge". The move from Proof of Work to Proof of Stake by the Ethereum developers will shape Ethereum's future in ways that are probably not even known currently.

    Join the podcast as I cover the background of the merge, the development that will be occurring after the merge and even some "live" commentary during the actually merge itself. There are events that shape the future of cryptocurrency for better or for worse and this is certainly going to be a pivotal event.

    Bitcoin as Part of a Solution for Climate Change Sep 05, 2022

    Bitcoin miners want the cheapest source of electricity to mine bitcoin. Many climate change activist attempt to make an argument that bitcoin is bad because it uses so much energy. How can we resolve this? On today's episode I dive into innovative ways that Bitcoin can be mined that help the system instead of just "generating more load". Ways of creating and consuming electricity that only benefit the environment and potential climate change.

    It's a Dilemma - Security, Speed and Decentralization Aug 29, 2022

    Any blockchain project has three primary issues to balance - security, speed and decentralization. No project can provide perfectly all three components at the "layer one" blockchain. The compromises made are what determine the characteristics of the blockchain.

    Understanding the challenges and tradeoffs will allow you to make better long term choices in your crypto assets.

    Your Right to Financial Privacy Aug 15, 2022

    What rights do you have to financial privacy? This week's news of the arrest of the creator of the Tornado Cash anonymizing dapp sent shockwaves through the industry. Regardless of what happens with TC this will ultimately affect everyone. The United States has very clear foundational rights about privacy and in my opinion those rights are being shredded with Tornado Cash being the latest example.

    Is Bitcoin Bad for the Environment? Jul 22, 2022

    There is a lot of FUD about Bitcoin being bad for the environment. What is the truth? Should we be "mining" Bitcoin? Let's take a look at some of the current ways that Bitcoin is being mined and the extremely clever ways that Bitcoin mining operations are using "stranded" energy in the form of natural gas and methane to mine bitcoin.

    The CFA and How Developing Countries Get Scammed Jul 19, 2022

    A Brief History of French Colonial Africa Jul 11, 2022

    Time to dust off the history books. France, along with other European nations, has a long history of involvement with Africa. Much of this history is based on exploitation of both the natural resources and the people of Africa. The direct French involvement did not end in many of these countries until 1960.

    This history, and the subsequent treaties established during independence of the African nations during the 1958 - 1960 time period set the stage for the continued economic exploitation of the African continent.

    Is Monero a Good Privacy Coin? Jul 01, 2022

    Monero is blockchain and token dedicated to privacy. While I would not recommend it as an investment, it may have utility as a way to transact with other people while providing privacy in a digital universe. In this episode I provide a brief overview of Monero, where it might fit into your digital assets and even cover a bit of how to mine for this privacy focused coin.

    Hyperinflation Blues Jun 24, 2022

    Are we heading for hyperinflation? It's possible. I believe the next year will determine what level of recession/depression that we experience. It is certainly possible that the US dollar becomes so destabilized that it both loses status as a world reserve currency and it hyper inflates.

    Is there anything you can do to prepare?

    Bitcoin Mining Ban Jun 10, 2022

    New York State has a bill that is waiting on the Governor to sign that would ban proof of work mining. This would mean that companies would not be allowed to set up new bitcoining mining operations in the state after the bill is passed.

    Even with the state Assembly and Senate passing the bill, there is no guarantee it will be signed into law. The governor is now saying that the bill will need to be looked at very closely.

    Will the Ethereum Merge Set it Free? Jun 06, 2022

    In my opinion, one of the most important events of the year will be taking place with the Ethereum 2.0 "merge". The process that will bring together the beacon chain and the main net will create a true deflationary token. It will also be moving from proof of work to proof stake.

    There are benefits to this this merge that should greatly increase the value of Ethereum in the future.

    Bitcoin Pizza Day! May 23, 2022

    May the 22nd is "bitcoin pizza day". It should be a day we celebrate by spending bitcoin to purchase goods and services -- instead many times it's a joke about the poor guy who spent 10,000 bitcoin on a couple of Pappa John's pizza.

    While bitcoin has become a store of value, it was created as digital currency. And the good news is that it can be both!! And using it for both will only accelerate the adoption of Bitcoin - and ultimately increase the price. So celebrate!

    The 2022 Black Swan event is happening May 12, 2022

    The coordinated attack on the Terra Luna ecosystem will most likely go down in crypto history as a "black swan event". Thirty billion dollars of TVL (total value locked) have been evaporated in an extremely short period of time and it is disrupting the entire market. Even though we most likely where in the beginnings of a bear market anyways this is certainly accelerating the process.

    Where is the market going from here? And how can you handle it?

    Let's talk.

    It's a Free for All!!! May 02, 2022

    In this week's episode I cover a few different things. Times right now are trying. Both the stock market and crypto in general seem to be in an outright free fall. Next week the Fed will most likely be announcing another half a percent interest rate increase. The majority of investors still consider crypto to be a risk-on asset so there is no significant decoupling of btc and other crypto from traditional stocks. Where do you go from here?

    Vive la révolution -- long live the Crypto revolution! Apr 29, 2022

    Crypto prices got you down? Maybe the economy or the pandemic or personal issues are weighing on your mind. I have some good news for you today!!!

    No matter WHAT is going on in your life, you can take control of your financial future. The economy stinks. Inflation is eating away at your savings and maybe the shelves at the grocery store are a little bare.

    While bitcoin and other solid crypto assets can't solve everything, they can help you find a better financial future. So begin the process of removing yourself from the world of debt-based paper money that will only lead to more destruction and decay. If you haven't done so .. it's time to join the revolution.

    Earning decentralized interest with your crypto Apr 22, 2022

    Last episode we discussed how to earn interest on your crypto using centralized platform such as https://nexo.io. Crypto being crypto, there are decentralized methods to earning interest -- called "yield farming". Cutting out the middleman can provide a much higher return on your assets but there are risks we need to discuss.

    During today's episode we cover the various ways that defi platforms can provide services that allow you generate that interest. I discuss the four primary ways that interest can be earned on these platforms. And of course we talk about risks of using a decentralized platform.

    Your Quarterly Checkup Mar 23, 2022

    This week we will be performing your quarterly checkup. I hope that in these times of market confusion you are continuing to stack crypto. Daily, weekly or monthly it doesn't matter. What matters is that, like Nike, you just do it. The saying goes .. when in doubt..zoom out!! Don't loose sight of the end goal.

    Where do we go from here? There are three scenarios going forward.... Mar 13, 2022

    The world seems like it is going crazy. We might have got into crypto for fun, the tech or maybe even to create wealth. Can it be a way to help protect our savings and wealth from the current economic environment? I believe it can be. Understanding some basic economic reasons for why countries are having difficulties with inflation will help you in preparing for the future.

    2021 - The Year in Review Jan 10, 2022

    And what a year it was!! It's easy to forget what happened in the last year. The price of $BTC and crypto in general might not have exploded as we would probably all like but there was much that was newsworthy.

    In addition to covering the major news of 2021 I highlighted what I think are the going to major trends of 2022 and even made a prediction for the Bitcoin price in 2022.

    Fomo or FOMC? Dec 15, 2021

    Tuesday and Wednesday of this week the FOMC (Federal Open Market Committee) meets to "guide" the monetary policy of the United States. I believe this will help determine both the near term economic climate as well as affect crypto assets in both the short and long term. Don't dismiss this as idle political speculation. I stay as far from the politics as possible. The decisions reached by this committee of twelve will have a great deal of influence on your financial life. You need to understand what this is all about.

    Blockchain Trilemma or the three-leg stool of cryptocurrency Nov 17, 2021

    In today's episode we cover the "blockchain trilemma" - Vitalik Buterin's concept of three primary attributes of a blockchain:

    • decentralized
    • security
    • scalability

    Any blockchain in development has to make compromises between these three aspects. They simply can't have the best aspects of all three attributes. We discuss each of these and how they relate to some of the most popular blockchains with an eye towards enabling you to evaluate any blockchain's chances of long-term success.


    It's NOT too late! Nov 15, 2021

    One of the most common complaints I hear about investing in crypto is that it's too late. It's simply not! And in this episode I break down the statistics and numbers behind the Crypto Twitter meme "Bitcoin is in the same market size as the Internet in 1997." It turns out that it's true! I"ll cover the implications of that and where Crypto usage will go from here.

    Cleanup on aisle one! Layer Two Protocols on the Ethereum Main Net Oct 26, 2021

    This week we get a little technical and dig into the primary layer two challengers being built and deployed on the Ethereum main net. These protocols have several advantages over the Ethereum main net including increased transaction speed and lower transaction fees. Of course, they do have disadvantages as well.

    Learn about what will help the Ethereum network continue to grow. And how you can buy your NFT on Opensea with NO transaction fees!!!



    Don't let the bear bite you! Oct 19, 2021

    The end is not here (yet)!!! At least I don't think it is...we are even near an ATH (all time high) for bitcoin. But now - before the bull market ends - is the time to determine your exit strategy - or even if you should exit.

    Listen is as I talk about how I messed up the 2017/2018 bear market and what you can do to maximize your gains during tough times.
