On March 6, President Trump signed an executive order establishing both a strategic bitcoin reserve and digital asset stockpile, which the administration says is meant to position “the United States asa. leader among nations in government digital asset strategy.” 

Today, Anthony Pompliano, founder & CEO of Professional Capital Management, joins us to unpack the significance of this move, discussing the geopolitical game theory behind Bitcoin adoption, how tech and politics are increasingly intertwined, and why governments are now competing for digital assets. He also explores potential methods for the US to expand its Bitcoin holdings, the shifting attitude toward crypto in Washington, and what all this might mean going forward. 

Finally, we discuss Dario Amodei’s warning about Chinese IP theft, OpenAI’s push to ban DeepSeek from the US and its new creative writing model, and the upcoming rollout of Community Notes on Meta.
