FEMA, Fiat, & The Cancer of Government - RANDOM RANT w/ Guy Swann (THE Bitcoin Podcast)

"Prosperity happens because you have good money and you have a community that trades. Government is the opposite of that. It is literally cancer. The fiat system is cancer. We have cancer. And you cannot fix cancer. You cannot just get radiation every week. You have to cut it out." In this RANDOM RANT, Walker and Guy Swann discuss FEMA, Hurricane Helene, government corruption, the illusion of ownership in modern society, poverty as the default state of existence and that true prosperity arises from good money and community trade. Guy Swann likens government and the fiat system to cancer, suggesting that they are detrimental to society and must be removed rather than treated.

FREEDOM vs THE NEW WORLD ORDER - Efrat Fenigson (Bitcoin Talk on THE Bitcoin Podcast)

"They have to create wars. They have to create chaos in order to bring about a new world order. It's that simple. And anyone that thinks that this is a conspiracy theory, go f***ing do the work!" On this Bitcoin Talk episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, Walker talks with Efrat Fenigson. Efrat is an independent journalist, a Bitcoin and freedom maximalist, and the host of Your The Voice Podcast. This episode is quite unique, because Efrat lives in Tel Aviv and in the middle of our conversation she started to hear the missile warning sirens and then started hearing missiles exploding, but she insisted we keep the conversation going. We went deep into a lot of topics today from the escalating conflict in the middle east, to mental and spiritual resilience, CBDCs, personal responsibility, censorship, the role of journalism in exposing truths, government psyops, free speech, globalist agendas, the New World Order, Bitcoin, Nostr, and how to find signal amidst all the incessant noise in this crazy world.

Censorship, the Political Pendulum, and Why EVERYONE Need Bitcoin - Adam O'Brien (Bitcoin Talk on THE Bitcoin Podcast)

"Everyone just gets gravity. Everyone gets the protocol and we all live within that. And that's a rule without rulers. And I think Bitcoin is like gravity where it's just everyone gets free and open source money. Everyone gets programmable money, programmed and designed to maintain its purchasing power. And that's a rule." On this Bitcoin Talk episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, Walker talks with Adam O'Brien, the founder & CEO of Bitcoin Well. We talk about Adam’s experience getting debanked by every bank in Canada, why fiat absolutely sucks, financial censorship, short-term fiat thinking vs long term bitcoin thinking, the political implications of separating money from state, the Bitcoiner ethos, family, why you need Bitcoin, and a whole lot more.

Bitcoin’s Protection under the First Amendment, by Ross Stevens (Bitcoin Out Loud on THE Bitcoin Podcast)

"Bitcoin implicates the First Amendment. As a system for collecting and communicating information ranging from payment data to art, bitcoin is speech. As a statement of protest against the government’s monopoly over money, bitcoin is expressive conduct. And as a collection of individuals that share bitcoin’s hard-coded principles of individual liberty, anti-censorship, and anti-debasement, bitcoin is an expressive association. Bitcoin is free speech protected by the First Amendment and therefore regulating bitcoin has clear constitutional implications."

A Cypherpunk's Manifesto by Eric Hughes

"We the Cypherpunks are dedicated to building anonymous systems. We are defending our privacy with cryptography, with anonymous mail forwarding systems, with digital signatures, and with electronic money. Cypherpunks write code. We know that someone has to write software to defend privacy, and since we can't get privacy unless we all do, we're going to write it. We publish our code so that our fellow Cypherpunks may practice and play with it. Our code is free for all to use, worldwide. We don't much care if you don't approve of the software we write. We know that software can't be destroyed and that a widely dispersed system can't be shut down. Cypherpunks deplore regulations on cryptography, for encryption is fundamentally a private act."

NOSTR, CAPITALISM, & THE FUTURE OF SOCIAL MEDIA with VITOR PAMPLONA (Nostr Talk on THE Bitcoin Podcast)

“The only barrier that you would not join Nostr right now is because the other platforms have more users and they can use that as leverage today. But that's not going to be the case in many years… those who are starting to get their followers already on Nostr are taking a significant advantage over everybody else because they're to grow faster. And we all know how network effects happen. It just so happens that on Nostr, the network effects themselves are owned by the creator.” On this Nostr Talk episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, Walker talks with Vitor Pamplona, the creator of the all-in-one Nostr client for Android, Amethyst.

“What if Bitcoin were to monetize to reach some parity with gold in the next five, 10, 15 years… How should the United States make decisions now to maximize its advantage relative to its adversaries if that scenario were to pass?” On this Bitcoin Talk episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, Walker talks with Matthew Pines.

I’m a family man, I’m a Bitcoiner, and, like most of you, I still have a job mining fiat so I can stack sats. You probably know my brilliant, stunning, and hilarious wife, Carla Bitcoin. We got our start in the Bitcoin space making short-form comedy, satire, and music videos. But since we had our incredible son, Apollo, Carla has taken a step back from content creation–and she was the real talent anyway–so I did what every Bitcoiner eventually does; I started a podcast.
