Episode 2: The Sovereign Stack Strikes Back — AI Agents, Lightning's 8th, and Bitcoin Covenants

43 minutes

NVIDIA just made their play for corporate AI domination at GTC 2026. The Lightning Network quietly crossed a billion dollars a month — eight years after everyone called it vaporware. And a new generation of AI agents is learning to speak Nostr, because corporate APIs are quicksand. This week's thesis: the sovereign stack isn't winning. It's already here.
