In this episode, we chat with Bellamy, a San Diego-based retail consultant who owns Bitcoin through a fund… but has never held it herself. That changes today.

Stewart and Chris walk step-by-step through what a Bitcoin wallet actually is, how to set one up in minutes, and why self-custody isn't as intimidating as it sounds. If you've ever wondered what a seed phrase is, how wallets differ from exchanges, or why some people are terrified of losing their sats—this episode is your warm welcome into Bitcoin.

We cover:

✅ What self-custody really means (and how to do it safely)

✅ Why early Bitcoin horror stories no longer apply

✅ How countries like El Salvador and Bhutan are leading the way

✅ Why women, entrepreneurs, and skeptics need to be in the room

✅ What Bitcoiners actually want from U.S. regulationBellamy came with curiosity but did she leave with sats or cash?

*Sat Chats Short Stacks delivers rapid-fire Bitcoin wisdom in 10 minutes or less—the same time it takes for a new Bitcoin block to be mined. Each episode tackles one key question or concept, breaking it down fast, simple, and stackable. Perfect for when you want to level up your Bitcoin knowledge without the fluff. Get in, get the signal, and keep stacking.*

In this Short Stack episode, we break down the Bitcoin halving—what it is, why it happens, and how it impacts Bitcoin's supply.

We cover:

✅ Why Bitcoin has a fixed supply of 21 million
✅ How Bitcoin is mined and new coins enter circulation
✅ What “halving” actually means (spoiler: it’s not cutting Bitcoin in half)
✅ Why the flow of new Bitcoin slows down every 4 years
✅ What this means for the future—and why it’ll eventually be all about sats

Think of it like filling a pool: the flow slows over time, but the total amount never shrinks. New to Bitcoin? This one clears up a major myth.

Sat Chats Short Stacks deliver bite-sized Bitcoin wisdom in under 10 minutes, just like a new block gets mined. Quick, clear, and stackable insights with zero fluff.

In this Short Stack episode of Sat Chats, Chris and Stuart break it down in simple terms: why all that energy spent by miners isn't waste—it's what secures the whole system.

We go step-by-step through how the process works, why it's nearly impossible to cheat, and what it means for the long-term safety of your transactions. Think golden tickets, real-world consequences, and a giant spreadsheet in the sky.

We cover:

✅ What Bitcoin miners are actually doing with all that energy

✅ Why “cheating the system” gets you nothing but losses

✅ How time adds layers of protection to your money

✅ Why every new block makes the system harder to hack

This is one of those episodes that finally makes something click. If you’ve ever heard “miners secure the network” and nodded along without really getting it… now you will.

Is Bitcoin a better store of value than gold, stocks, or even dollars? That’s what we unpack with Pallavi, a sustainable entrepreneur, who joined us to explore what makes money good money and where Bitcoin fits in.

Growing up in India, Pallavi was taught (like many) that gold is the ultimate savings tool— a symbol of wealth, security, and legacy. But as she built her own business and embraced experiences over heirlooms, she started asking deeper questions:

What actually makes money valuable? Can something digital like Bitcoin truly hold value across time?

We cover:
✅ Why gold has been trusted for thousands of years
✅ The hidden risks behind stocks, bonds, and dollars
✅ How Bitcoin compares to gold as a long-term store of value
✅ Why Bitcoin might be the next step in money’s global evolution

In the end, Pallavi had to choose: $50 in Bitcoin or $50 in cash? Her choice surprised us as much as it will surprise you.

If you're wrestling with questions about savings, security, and what the future of money looks like, this episode will meet you where you are.

In this episode, we sit down with Daniel (entrepreneur and founder of Sovreign.io) to talk about what it really means to run a business on a Bitcoin standard.

Daniel first got into crypto for the same reason a lot of people do: the dream of getting rich quick. But after losing the plot and selling his stack, it took years (and a mentor) for him to rediscover Bitcoin and actually understand it. 

Now, he helps companies move away from debt, inflation, and fiat chaos by building on something sound.

We cover:
✅ Why growing your wealth doesn't matter if your money’s broken

✅  How Bitcoin changes the way businesses think about value

✅  Why countries in pain may lead the next global wealth shift

✅  The truth about inflation—and why most people feel stuck

This is one of those episodes that meets you where you are—whether you're running a business, starting your Bitcoin journey, or just trying to understand how the system really works.

Daniel, like all guests, must choose: $50 in cash or $50 in sats. Will his choice surprise you?

We cover:

✅ How Bitcoin became part of Rahul’s journey from addiction to redemption

✅ The truth about asset seizure, and how the government actually takes your Bitcoin
