Today's episode was recorded on March 31, 2023. You can find the live streams on YouTube and Twitter. In this one, I read through an article from Politico on Jason Lowery's Soft War. It is amazing they report on bitcoin mining as a national security concern! The article actually says, the US government must mine bitcoin!

Next, I react to the news that the BRICS are going to launch their own currency. Is this a good idea, a danger to the US dollar? Enjoy.

In today's episode, I walk through my weekly newsletter starting with important bitcoin and macro headlines, then moving on to price analysis, mining sector news and finally, the lightning network.

The main theme of the day is a growing "attack" on the bitcoin space, an attack that conveniently seems wholly contained to the altcoin scams and altcoin casino exchanges. For years, bitcoiners have said these things were enemies of bitcoin, but now we are being called on to come to their rescue and join with the fraudsters, scammers and theives. I don't think so. Enjoy.

In today's episode, I listen to a recent interview that the great Jack Mallers recently did with CNBC. It is a good jumping off point to talk about some deeper aspects of Bitcoin and Bitcoin Maximalism. Then I discuss Janet Yellen being completely surprised by the rapid shift from worries about inflation to bank runs. Enjoy.

In today's episode, I examine Balaji's recent $1 million bitcoin bet, and listen to him try to create a dialectic trap for Bitcoin Maximalists. I wrap up the episode talking about the recent Federal Reserve swap lines and why they are different from inflation, and actually portend massive deflation is coming. Enjoy.

In today's episode, I give you my thoughts on the price of bitcoin at the recent bottom on March 10. As you know, it bounced very hard. What did I say back then? I thought it had a short window to bounce and recover, which it did very shortly after recording this episode. Make sure to join me for the live streams.

Next, we cover the new proposed taxes by the Biden administration to place taxes directly on the electricity uses of miners in the US. I give you my evaluation of this proposal and its likelihood. Short version, it's not. Enjoy.

In today's episode, I detail out Powell's comments on March 7th in front of the Senate Banking Committee, reacting to what I heard. I listen to these types of things so you don't have to. IMO this one was pretty entertaining. Also, in hindsight, since I'm publishing this episode on March 22nd, after the huge bank failures of SVB and Signature caused havoc for the Fed, listening to his comments and my reaction from just before is interesting.

Second, I discuss GBTC becoming an ETF and what that would mean. Thanks for listening. Enjoy.
