How AI Could Take Bitcoin to $1 Million | Jordi Visser
“I think everyone is underestimating the speed of AI.” Jordi Visser joins the show to discuss why he believes AI could trigger a major shift in global wealth, weaken the investment appeal of stocks and real estate, and create a new bull case for Bitcoin. He explains why wealthy investors haven’t needed Bitcoin yet, and how AI’s deflationary effects could change that. We also get into whether AI is a bubble, how agents and tokenization could transform finance, and why Big Tech may struggle to maintain its dominance.

America’s Debt Problem Is Bitcoin’s Bull Case | Andy Constan
“The things they need to do to bring inflation down are just too painful for them.” Andy Constan returns to discuss why he thinks politicians will keep running large deficits, how inflation can shift the cost of America’s debt onto savers and future generations, and why that creates a bull case for Bitcoin. We also get into how institutions decide whether to own Bitcoin, why its volatility and weak correlation with gold keep Andy on the sidelines, and whether a US debt collapse is inevitable. Andy explains why bonds look more attractive to him today, what it would take to bring inflation down, and whether AI could change America’s debt outlook.

The Biggest Lie in Economics | Peter St Onge
“You don’t need inflation for anything whatsoever. It’s essentially a counterfeiting cartel.” Peter St Onge returns to discuss why he believes 2% inflation is a scam, how central banks transfer wealth from savers to governments and Wall Street, and why technological progress should be making life cheaper. We also get into Austrian economics, his argument that the Fed causes the recessions it then tries to fix, and America’s growing debt problem. Peter explains why he thinks the AI bubble still has room to run, how he uses Bitcoin as a place to park profits, and what could bring money back from AI into Bitcoin.

Capitalism Is Dead: The Rise of the AI Surveillance State | Erik Cason
“I think the primary product that they’re the most interested in selling is AI psychosis.” Erik Cason returns to discuss why he believes American capitalism has already ended, how AI could accelerate the rise of the surveillance state, and why owning your own AI could become as important as holding your own Bitcoin. We also get into AI dependence, his warning of a “digital 9/11”, the competition between Chinese open models and American AI companies, and the personal AI system he’s building. Erik explains how Bitcoin and cryptography fit into this future, and why Bitcoin could become essential for paying for AI when governments restrict access.

AI Came for Bitcoin First | Jameson Lopp
"The rest of the world, of course, should always have been paying attention to Bitcoin, but they should be paying attention to it for a very different set of reasons now because they’re next.” Jameson Lopp returns to discuss how AI is accelerating the race between hackers and defenders, what the Coldcard and Liquid hacks reveal about Bitcoin security, and why he sees Bitcoin as the canary in the coal mine for other industries. We also get into hardware wallets, multisig and protecting life-changing amounts of bitcoin, the risks of KYC leaks and physical attacks, and what Jameson learnt from talking to scammers and interviewing North Korean applicants trying to get jobs at Casa.

Can AI Actually Grow America Out of Its Debt? | Jeff Ross
“I think AI is officially too big to fail.” Jeff Ross returns to discuss why he expects an AI-led manufacturing boom in the US and how rising productivity could help America grow its way out of debt. We also get into why AI-driven deflation could benefit people but threaten a debt-based monetary system, and why the government may eventually have to backstop the AI buildout with QE or yield curve control. • - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS: LEDN - Explore Bitcoin-backed loans and get 0.25% off your first loan.

The US Is Long-Term Insolvent | Lyn Alden
“We don’t really have the tools to deal with fiscal-driven inflation.” Lyn Alden returns to discuss why the US is entering deeper fiscal dominance, what the Treasury’s recent buybacks signal, and why America’s growing debt and $2 trillion deficits are changing what monetary policy can actually achieve. We discuss the increasingly K-shaped economy, why developed markets are beginning to take on characteristics once associated with emerging markets, and why Lyn believes this macro environment could persist well into the 2030s. Lyn also explains why she believes Bitcoin is increasingly well positioned for the years ahead, why capital could rotate out of the AI trade, and what would need to happen for Bitcoin to enter a stronger bull market. • - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS: LEDN SWAN ANCHORWATCH BITKEY CAPE • - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - FOLLOW: Danny Knowles: https://x.com/_DannyKnowles Lyn Alden: https://x.com/LynAldenContact

Bitcoin & the $40 Trillion Debt Reckoning | Nik Bhatia
“There is a reckoning. There is a point at which something has to be addressed.” Nik Bhatia returns to get into America’s $40 trillion debt problem, why the real danger is the share of tax revenue being consumed by interest, and how continued Treasury bill issuance could eventually trigger stress in the repo market and force the Fed to intervene. We discuss whether Treasury buybacks helped drive Bitcoin’s recent 20% rally, why the UK, France and Japan may face major monetary intervention before the United States, and how Washington is attempting to reclaim control of the offshore dollar system. Is the world entering a new kind of financial war? Nik also explains why he believes Bitcoin’s bottom is in but the next bull market has not yet begun, what his liquidity indicators are signalling, and why the bond market could determine Bitcoin’s next major move.
