  • The Conservative Case for Bitcoin | Mitchell Askew

    Welcome to this week's episode of the Halving Report! We're excited to have Mitchell Askew, author of *The Conservative Case for Bitcoin,* join us.ย 

    Mitchell shares his journey into Bitcoin and how it aligns with American values, especially for conservative evangelicals. He discusses the future of Bitcoin, the Lightning Network, and the importance of valuing assets in Bitcoin instead of fiat. Mitchell explains why Bitcoin is more secure than gold, resists manipulation, and is a strong hedge against inflation and economic uncertainty. He also highlights the importance of holding your own keys and how Bitcoin mining supports energy production.

  • Rajat Soni Ushers In the New Bitcoin Era

    Welcome to a landmark episode of the Halving Report ๐ŸŽ‰, our first since the recent Bitcoin halving event on April 19th at 8:09 PM โฐ. While this conversation with Rajat Soni, a veteran in finance and Bitcoin, took place just before the halving, his insights into the expected changes are incredibly enlightening ๐Ÿง . Despite the halving itself having minimal immediate impact on the market, with prices remaining stable, the adjustment in block rewards marks a significant moment for miners and the Bitcoin protocol's ongoing evolution ๐Ÿ“ˆ.

    We are also excited to introduce a new dynamic to the show, as Xavier, previously a guest, joins as a co-host ๐Ÿค. His passion for Bitcoin and insightful perspectives will undoubtedly enrich our discussions ๐Ÿ’ฌ. In this episode, we explore the technical and economic aspects of Bitcoin as anticipated before the halving and discuss the subtler, yet crucial changes that affect miners and the long-term supply dynamics of Bitcoin. Join us as we navigate these developments and continue to provide thoughtful analysis in this new era of Bitcoin ๐Ÿ”.
