Think Bitcoin's "too late" because 95% of the supply is already mined? Think again. While mainstream media spins this as bad news, we explain why this scarcity is exactly what makes Bitcoin so powerful for regular people. The nearly-complete supply isn't Bitcoin's weakness—it's its superpower.

We break down why scarcity benefits plebs over institutions, how the final 5% will take over 100 years to mine, and what this means for your stacking strategy. Plus, we look at the numbers: Bitcoin gained over 61% in the past year alone, proving that "being late" to a scarce asset can still be incredibly profitable. Whether you're worried you missed the boat or want to understand Bitcoin's game theory, this episode will change how you think about supply dynamics.
