Have you ever felt lost in the rabbit hole of Bitcoin? In this episode, I revisit Gigi's "21 Lessons of the Bitcoin Rabbit Hole," diving deep into Chapter 3, which focuses on technology.
What makes Bitcoin's technology so revolutionary? How does it invert the power balance of the physical world? We'll explore the cryptography that secures Bitcoin, the importance of decentralization, and the cypherpunk ethos that shaped its creation.
Is Bitcoin just another app, or is it the foundation for a new economic reality? Join me as I rediscover the beauty and simplicity of Bitcoin's origins, and ponder the exponential technologies that are shaping its future. Are you ready to go parabolic?

In this episode, I revisit Chapter 2 of Gigi's "21 Lessons from the Bitcoin Rabbit Hole," taking another look at the core principles of economics through a Bitcoin lens.
We'll explore concepts like inflation, value, and sound money, questioning the traditional financial system along the way. How does Bitcoin challenge our understanding of these concepts? Is it a return to sound money or something entirely new? Tune in for a fresh perspective on these fundamental economic ideas.

Returning to a classic! I revisit Gigi's "21 Lessons of the Bitcoin Rabbit Hole," starting with Chapter 1: Philosophy. What does Bitcoin have to teach us about immutability, scarcity, and identity? Can a digital creation challenge our understanding of the world around us? Join me as I re-explore these foundational ideas and consider what they mean in today's ever-changing landscape. It's always a good time to dust off these fundamentals and ask ourselves if we've really understood the lessons they hold.

What is capital, really? And what happens when Bitcoin forces a repricing of everything we think we know about it?
In this reboot episode we're bringing back Capital in the 21st Century by Allen Farrington. A piece that explores the deep connection between money and capital - two concepts often conflated but fundamentally distinct. Farrington dismantles the illusion that money itself is wealth, arguing instead that it is merely a claim on wealth, a liquid mechanism for valuing the things we truly desire. He examines how Bitcoin reshapes our understanding of capital, entrepreneurship, and economic potential energy, weaving in insights from Austrian economics and beyond.
It's very easy to lose sight of what bitcoin is set to fix, and this read really gets to the core of that question. So I'm glad to be revisiting this one, and sharing some more of my recent thoughts around the ideas Allen Farrington brings to the table.

"Not your keys, not your coins."
I posit that the corollary to this principle is:
'Your keys, only your coins.'A quantum capable entity breaks the corollary of this foundational principle. We secure our bitcoin with the mathematical probabilities related to extremely large random numbers. Your funds are only secure because truly random large numbers should not be guessable or discoverable by anyone else in the world.
It seems almost inevitable, that at some point quantum computing could reach the capacity to break current cryptographic standards, so the question is, what do we do about it? Do we allow the first entities with a powerful quantum computer, the already wealthy and powerful, attack the keys to millions of BTC and dominate the economic destiny of Bitcoin? Or should this be treated like a vulnerability? A bug in the code. Where we set a date to deprecate the old signatures, and burn the coins that were lost to vulnerable keys? The answer might not be as simple as you first suspect, Jameson Lopp makes a solid case in today's article.

Bitcoin’s strength lies in its core properties—trust minimization, decentralization, censorship resistance, and more. But what exactly defines these principles, and why do they matter? In this episode, I revisit Jameson Lopp’s What Are the Key Properties of Bitcoin?, a piece that breaks down the fundamental attributes that make Bitcoin what it is. Along the way, I share updated thoughts on how these ideas hold up today, especially in the face of ongoing protocol debates and potential future threats like quantum computing. Understanding Bitcoin’s foundations isn’t just theory—it’s essential for knowing where we stand and where we’re headed.

In this episode of Bitcoin Audible, I revisit an important concept that deserves more attention: timeout trees and their potential to revolutionize scaling for the Lightning Network.
Based on Shinobi's article, "A Solution to Scaling Lightning," we explore how this innovative proposal leverages CheckTemplateVerify (CTV) to create a simple yet powerful scaling primitive. Could timeout trees be the key to unlocking the next order of magnitude in Lightning's efficiency?
I break down the mechanics of timeout trees, their implications for channel factories, and how they address Lightning's long-term scaling limitations. Along the way, I share my own commentary on the broader impact of this technology, from its role in decentralizing trust to its potential for reshaping local and global financial systems.
What does this mean for the future of Bitcoin? How can timeout trees empower families, communities, and individuals to reclaim sovereignty in a world dominated by centralized systems? Let's find out.

"The last thing we should want to do is the government to print up a bunch of money, which steals from the poor, so that they can buy Bitcoin to enrich us. Or fill up the SBR by seizing coins, which is basically what it is now.
The real adoption comes from people actually using it, from individuals and businesses creating circular economies, trading goods and services, increasing the velocity. This is what real Bitcoin adoption is all about."
~ UTXO
The irony of posting on Twitter, how Nostr isn't decentralized enough, is not lost on UTXO. He's back! UTXO and I have a much needed catch up on the many projects he has been building and explore the ups and down of Nostr, why its so misunderstood, the state of Ai and how it is changing the market, and how to build the UX that Bitcoin and Lightning deserve. Also... the SBR is stupid. Enjoy!

What if your heating system could pay you in Bitcoin? In this episode, I read an article exploring the concept of "heat punks"—Bitcoin miners who use their rigs not just to earn sats, but to heat their homes. The article breaks down the economics of mining-as-heating, from upfront costs to the surprising efficiencies that make it viable. Along the way, I add my own thoughts on the practicality of this approach, the trade-offs involved, and what it could mean for the future of energy use. Could mining rewards turn heat into a byproduct rather than an expense? Let’s dive in.

Life has been hectic lately, but I didn’t want to leave you hanging! While I navigate the joys of parenthood, I’m bringing back a classic - Guy's Take #44 - Bitcoin is Not What you Think it is.
What if your understanding of Bitcoin is only scratching the surface? In this episode, I dive into the deeper realities of money itself—how great societies are built on sound money, why money is more foundational than language, and how prices convey critical information rather than being arbitrary. We also explore the nature of time, the role of proof of work in ancient history, and why money is ultimately a tool for transmitting truth.
If you missed it the first time, now’s the perfect moment to give it a listen.

Nicholas Dorier brings us a short piece that is very relevant to many of our challenges today, being clear and precise about the definition of the word custody. As we have seen for decades, the political sphere is almost designed to destroy and confuse the definition of words for the explicit purpose of broadening power, and creating enemies and criminals of anyone who gets in their way. But an even greater dilution of the term has come from within, as new "layer 2" systems compete to be seen as the next major leap forward. Are they really, or are we losing a key definition that could bring more consequences than we may admit...? Let's dig into it.

Did you know that the value and utility of Bitcoin can be trivially duplicated? At least this is what the increasingly bitter buttcoiners of the world seem to espouse, even when proven wrong over and over again, and seeing a million copy cats fail at this very challenge. At least the capitulation is fun to watch. A short one from FT with a Guy's Take to follow. An "apology" to bitcoiners.

Tired of app stores controlling what you download and who gets paid? What if there was a way to directly connect with developers, verify the authenticity of their apps, and support them directly using Bitcoin? Could Nostr, the decentralized social network, be the key to unlocking a new era of app distribution, giving users more control and fostering a more trustworthy ecosystem?

I joined Knut Svanholm and Luke de Wolf on the Bitcoin Infinity Show to explore the fundamental role of money, incentives, and sound economics in shaping society. We dug into the "Give-a-Shit Matrix", a powerful framework for understanding how people allocate resources—and how broken incentives lead to systemic waste.
We also unpacked why Bitcoin is the apex of financial responsibility, how fiat incentivizes inefficiency, and why Ethereum’s staking model is fundamentally flawed. Along the way, we explored miner incentives, the real problem with ordinals, and the deeper economic distortions caused by inflation.
Why does technology keep advancing, yet people feel like they have less time? Why does the system seem designed to trap people in endless work? And how does Bitcoin realign incentives toward genuine prosperity?
This was a great conversation with some hard truths and a few laughs along the way.

It's easy to complain about what hasn't happened yet or what problems are still to be solved. And it's also hard to have humility, recognizing that maybe how and when we imagined a problem would be solved, may not be how reality plays out.
Without getting complacent, it is prudent to also have perspective and compare where we are to its alternatives, rather than an assumed perfect solution that doesn't yet exist. So today we take a break from the technical dives, and the challenges ahead, and take stock of our massive wins, to see just how far we've come. It's time for a Guy's Take episode.

I've wanted for a long time to understand how a DHT works, and how a P2P network is able to establish connections in a resilient, scalable, and decentralized way. So diving into it on the show and having to explain it, seemed the easy way to force me to figure it out. With the help of a fantastic article from the Pubky team, let's make sense of the censorship resistance of P2P networks.

In a past episode, I joined Steve Patterson and the host for what was supposed to be a discussion but quickly turned into one of the most heated debates I've had on the show. Along with Steve, who co-authored Hijacking Bitcoin with Roger Ver, we dove into a fiery debate about Michael Saylor—his influence, his ideas, and whether Bitcoin has been hijacked.
While we all agreed it wouldn’t be a debate, the conversation sparked intense back-and-forths about Bitcoin’s direction and the potential dangers it faces. It’s a passionate exchange that touches on crucial issues within the Bitcoin space, and it's a conversation that’s well worth sharing.

We are all addicted to digits. Fiat digits, loyalty points, social media likes, stock prices—everywhere we turn, someone is trying to hook us. But what if the biggest addiction of all is the illusion of control over numbers that don’t belong to us? In this episode, I dive into a thought-provoking article that exposes how fiat, real estate, gold, stocks, and even Bitcoin itself have become part of a global digit addiction. Who are the digit lords keeping us hooked? How do they manipulate our perception of value? And most importantly—can Bitcoin be both the ultimate fix and the only way out? Join me as we unravel the battle between dependence and true sovereignty.
