The Bitcoin Infinity Show

Natalie Brunell, a journalist and Bitcoin educator, dives into her book, highlighting its accessibility for skeptics and newcomers. She discusses Bitcoin as a solution to systemic financial issues, emphasizing its role as sound money that promotes true capitalism. The conversation reflects on the importance of literacy, individual adoption, and the long-term benefits of Bitcoin. Natalie shares personal insights, fostering hope and empowerment through education while addressing the need for a patient, inclusive approach to adoption.

Explore the intriguing intersection of secularism and individual sovereignty. The hosts dissect the characteristics of cults, questioning if modern democracies share these traits. They delve into the implications of separating money from the state and how Bitcoin symbolizes decentralization. Hear about brain wallets and the potential for portable capital to shift economic power. The conversation promotes rethinking formal education in favor of praxeology, linking it to personal freedom and sovereignty.

Anil Patel joins the Bitcoin Infinity Show to talk about Michael Saylor's Bitcoin treasury playbook, from the 2020 inflation panic that prompted MicroStrategy's first 10K BTC buys to the debt-financed "gears" now holding over 250,000 BTC with yields far below Bitcoin's projected 30% annual growth. They explore Saylor's board orange-pilling via his Mobile Wave thesis, the "bicycle gears" model for layered yield products like preferred shares and convertibles, and Bitcoin's first-principles design as engineered economic energy. Anil's new book The Treasury of Michael Saylor visualizes these strategies, emphasizing custody risks and why corporate treasuries like MicroStrategy enhance but cannot supplant individual self-custody.
