The BIP110 Bitcoin Debate | Gary Cardone vs. BIP110
Q wanted a place where Bitcoiners could disagree without it turning toxic. This four-hour Spaces — featuring Hodlonaut, Knut Svanholm, and a rotating cast of guests — is what that actually looks like. The BIP-110 debate, ordinals as spam vs. legitimate fee market activity, whether this moment is worse or better than the Block Size Wars, Craig Wright threatening to sue Bitcoin Magazine, the 2032 halving and miner fee revenue, Mimblewimble extension blocks for privacy, and why creating enemies when…
$130 Million Just Vanished From 'Safe' Bitcoin Wallets | Pete Rizzo
$130 million. That's how much Bitcoin has vanished from "self-custody" wallets since a firmware flaw in Coldcard hardware wallets was disclosed — one of the largest security failures in Bitcoin's history, and it happened to people who did everything right by taking their coins off exchanges. This week we're joined by Pete Rizzo — Bitcoin historian, former Bitcoin Magazine and CoinDesk editor — to put this moment in context. We trace the history of self-custody, why collaborative custody exists…
Korea Crashed 30% Overnight. Japan Is Next. The Fed Is Holding. And We're Fine.
Bitcoin is at $64K USD. The Korean stock market just dropped 30% in a day. Asian markets are flashing red from Japan to Taiwan. The Fed is about to hike rates. And Galaxy Research dropped a $5M bet that quantum computers will break Bitcoin before the ecosystem can respond. Q, Riley, and Zach cover all of it: why every global stock market is a cousin of the US market, what the S&P priced in gold actually shows since 2000, the Galaxy quantum bet and whether it's signal or noise, the Clarity Act timeline,…
China's 190,000 Bitcoin Problem
Bitcoin just crashed from a $122K all-time high to $63K, and this week alone brought five separate bombshells. Trump accused China of stealing 220 million US voter files and Bitcoin dropped within hours. The US struck 80+ Iranian military targets. Russia's Duma just legalized Bitcoin for cross-border trade. Treasury and Commerce are in an open turf war over who controls the government's 300,000+ BTC reserve. And Michael Saylor, the guy who said "you do not sell your Bitcoin", sold Bitcoin. This week…
What Happens to Bitcoin If Saylor Gets Forced to Sell?
Michael Saylor built the biggest corporate bitcoin bet in history. Now the charts are red and the questions are getting louder. On this episode of the Bitcoin Well Podcast, we sit down with Chris Alaimo (Strategic Advisor at Simple Bitcoin) and Joe Consorti (Horizon) to dig into what's actually happening with Saylor's position, whether "forced seller" fears are real or overblown, and what it could mean for the rest of the market if they play out.

Trump's Bitcoin Money Trail Nobody's Talking About
He was quietly cashing in while everyone else got rugged.

Reads - What Gives Money Its Value? (And What Actually Backs Bitcoin)
Bitcoin just dropped $18,000 in 10 days. Strategy sold for the first time since 2022. The headlines are screaming capitulation. Zach reads two pieces back to back: Adam O'Brien's "What Gives Money Its Value" — a clear-eyed dismantling of the "Bitcoin isn't backed by anything" crowd (spoiler: neither is the dollar, and it's not gold either) — followed by a primer on dollar cost averaging, because weeks like this one are exactly why DCA exists. This one's for Uncle Mark. DCA #WhatBacksBitcoin…
