"I’m not asking you to fight the Beast of Big Politics, Big Tech and Big Media.
Honestly I don’t know how you would. This is the end of an age, the _fin de siecle_, the period of time where the Beast is strongest because it is everywhere and invisible all at once. Big Politics, Big Tech and Big Media _are_ the water in which we swim. We are totally immersed in the coâmmon knowledgeâ that the enemy is the Other Party, and until that comâmon knowledge is weakened substantially, any direct challenge to the Beast is a suicide mission. A noble suicide mission, like charging a fascist machine gun nest in the Spanish Civil War, but a suicide mission all the same."
— Ben Hunt
Today we dive into an important and sobering piece. A brilliantly written one that will challenge you to reflect on something we have all been a part of, and that we attempt to be honest and see how we have been pulled into a dangerous feedback loop that will send us to a place we don't want to be.
If you end up only listening to a few episodes of the show that strike interest from the title and description... don't let this be one that gets skipped.

Social justice shoots up.
Transgenderism shoots up.
White privilege shoots up.
This was forced on the American people.
Why are we having these conversations now?
The people did not wake up one day and decide we want to have a national conversation about chicks with dicks.
That didn't happen.
This wasn't an organic movement.
It was all of the most powerful people decided this is what we're going to talk about, and why was that?
Look, when you're failing on policy, you pivot to a culture war.
You pit people against each other, so they're fighting each other.

"Sometimes your gut feelings lead you astray—particularly in mathematics, in which one constantly comes across results that seem impossible... There are also many scenarios that appear contradictory at first glance (or second or third). These paradoxes can be explained, however. They are not errors but rather reminders that we should not rely too heavily on our intuition in mathematics."
-Manon BischoffWhat if our intuition can trick us when it comes to understanding complex and interactive systems? What happens when our worldview is challenged by seemingly contradictory ideas? In this episode, we explore three mind-bending paradoxes in mathematics and examine how they can help us better understand the nuances of Bitcoin and the world around us.

"If we leave Bitcoin as it is, it’s a new money for the 1%. The 1% can absolutely hold their own coins in a way that they really couldn’t with gold in the same in the same way. So there’s. But the question is, are we are we building Bitcoin to be a new money for the 1% or the point 1% or are we building Bitcoin to be a new money for the world that fundamentally decentralizes people’s ability to control their own finance. And certainly I’d much rather be building the latter thing fundamentally decentralizing finance, not new money for the wealthy."

"Using the COLDCARD Mk4 is pretty straightforward. Yet, what goes on under the hood is far from obvious. Technical documentation, the hardware specifications and code used are available, yet not easily understandable by all. To best understand what’s going on under the hood, we will go through the process of setting up a COLDCARD and using it."
— Tristan Borges SolariToday we are going to take a bit of a dive into the inner workings of hardware wallets, and the security and thinking around protecting your keys. Working from an article that breaks down how the Coldcard works at a technical level, and then geeking out on the design philosophy, simple strategies for creating and remembering PIN numbers, backup rituals, and writing spy stories.

Sometimes life will make you feel stuck, it will wear you down and gaslight you into believing you have made no progress. Small, persistent progress is hard to see, and its only when you take a big step back that it becomes clear. Today I explore the parallels between life's ups and downs and Bitcoin's market volatility and where we are today. I'll share why Bitcoin's limited supply and steady upward push make it a powerful reminder of the importance of seemingly tiny, but unceasing improvements, and why it's essential to endure through the tough times to still be there for the great times.

"Dark merchants would never use Lightning, right? Because well, you need a node ID, an entity... Versus Ark, you're not a node or entity. All you are is entropy. You're just a public key with silent payment style tweaking. That means no address reuse. By default, coins gets mixed in each round. In a scalable and convenient way. And so it's all private. You can't tell who pays what and when and what amount really. It is great and appealing for privacy people, and I can see Ark dominating Dark web."- Burak
In this episode, Guy Swann hosts Burak for an in-depth conversation on the future of Bitcoin, smart contracts, and the innovative potential of Ark. What if Bitcoin could scale beyond its limits without compromising privacy or decentralization? Burak introduces BroLab, a groundbreaking framework that merges Bitcoin and smart contracts, but also explores Ark—a new P2P transaction model offering enhanced privacy and scalability for both business and personal use. How could Ark outperform lightning in peer-to-peer systems and revolutionize Bitcoin’s future? And what role will stablecoins, Web5, and reputation-based contracts play in transforming global finance and social systems? Dive into this thought-provoking episode as Burak and Guy break down the building blocks of the next generation of decentralized technology.

"An argument for doing a consensus cleanup soft-fork first, prior to enabling any new opcodes or other features for new types of L2’s, is that we’d learn more about how willing the wider community is to implement what should be a relatively uncontroversial soft-fork that arguably benefits everyone."
— Peter ToddIn this deep dive into Bitcoin's Layer 2 solutions, we explore Peter Todd's comprehensive analysis of soft fork and covenant proposals. What are the trade-offs between different scaling solutions like CTV, OP_CAT, and SIGHASH_ANYPREVOUT? How might these changes impact Bitcoin's future, and what path forward offers the best balance of innovation and security? Join us as we unravel the complexities of Bitcoin's potential upgrades and their implications for the network's scalability and functionality.

"Lightning achieved a many-to-one mapping of transactions to transactions... But creating even a single UTXO per user is, arguably, not good enough. So there are many proposals out there to achieve even greater scaling by allowing multiple users to share a single UTXO in a self-sovereign way. Again, collapsing another “space” dimension of scaling users into one UTXO."
— Peter ToddToday we dive into Peter Todd's recent review of the various Layer 2 covenant proposals and the soft forks associated with them to analyze the core concepts, the costs, and benefits of each. For moving into the next realm of scaling with genuine "L2's," what are the trade-offs and possibilities for Bitcoin's future?

It's Here! Today I am thrilled to introduce the first episode of Guy's Roundtable. I've assembled a group of OG bitcoiners for a new monthly series where we dissect the latest developments in the bitcoin world. In this inaugural episode, we set the stage for what promises to be an enlightening journey through the ever-evolving Bitcoin landscape. Our mission? To keep you informed, spark thoughtful discussions, insult the right people, apologize to no one, and gain insight from the lunatics who've seen more bear markets and crazy storms in the bitcoin world than anyone else you know.
This is the first episode of Guy's Roundtable.

Is the Bitcoin-Dollar theory a path to salvation or destruction for the US currency? Stablecoin issuers have become major buyers of US bonds, and political figures have flipped the script to embrace Bitcoin. What does this mean for the future of money, and will Bitocin reinforce dollar dominance or pave the way for a new monetary standard? It's time for a Guy's Take episode.

We've always supposed that Bitcoin was going to challenge the dollar and reign in the irresponsible and corrupt monopoly held by the US govt over the global debt markets. But what if we were wrong? What if the embrace of Bitcoin and stablecoins by the US govt is actually a move that lets them not only maintain their levels of debt and degeneracy, but even expand them for generations to come? What if Bitcoin isn't the downfall of the dollar, but instead its savior?
Today we dive into another fantastic exploration of the problem with stablecoins and the political play for dominance being made by establishment powers, with Mark Goodwin's and Whitney Webb's incredible piece, "Trump Embraces the Bitcoin-Dollar."

"The government is more than half of the economy. They control everything.
What this new battleground is showing is that in the Bitcoin world, within the Bitcoin environment, they're going to have to Samourai Wallet every one of us to get that money, which means it's not going to work. There's either going to be a revolution or society goes from a quiet fraud of 60% of our wealth to guns and whips stealing 60% of our wealth.
That second one is not sustainable."
- Guy SwannIn this episode of the Bitcoin Audible podcast, I’m excited to share my conversation from the Swan Signal podcast. Sam and I dive headfirst into the hidden truths behind money hoarding and the insidious effects of inflation on our society.
We peel back the layers on how these economic forces shape our daily lives, often in ways we don’t even realize. We also discuss why we celebrate Bitcoin Pizza Day - an iconic moment in Bitcoin history that symbolizes so much more than just a couple of pizzas - and much more.
This episode is a deep dive into the forces that drive our financial world and how Bitcoin stands as a beacon of hope in the midst of it all. It’s an episode that will challenge what you think you know about money and inflation.Link to the original episode on Swan Signal Youtube.

"The Fed, knowingly or not, is basically in charge of the global financial system. They may shout, “We raise rates in the US to fight inflation, global consequences be damned!!” – But that’s a hell of a lot more difficult to follow when large G7 countries are in the early stages of a full blown currency crisis.The most serious implication is that the Fed is responsible for supplying dollars to everyone.

“For money as for all other activities of man, “liberty is the mother, not the daughter, of order.”
â Murray N. Rothbard -
"The government and the corporate environment so desperately want us to centralize so they can they can have total surveillance and they can have backdoors into everybody's stuff.
They're abusive and everything, but not everything's imploded yet. And that continues on. But we continue in this trajectory until at some point, the some little thing breaks or somebody actually makes a concerted effort to land an attack. And just because it's so clear that we are so vulnerable, and we realize that we have committed suicide.
We have set up all of the tools and all of the environment necessary for someone else to absolutely obliterate us. And we did it because we just wanted to spy on everybody's $600 transactions."

"In fact, this is the key feature that re-energized me toward Nostr a second time after my initial experience with it. Bitcoin and Nostr combined together work like an international decentralized open-source Venmo. It’s a method of payment combined with payment discovery."

"Lenin was certainly right. There is no subtler, no surer means of over- turning the existing basis of society than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose."
~ John Maynard Keynes -
"It would be wrong to think of Cypherpunks as a formal group. It's more a gathering of those who share a predilection for codes, a passion for privacy, and the gumption to do something about it. Anyone who decides to spread personal crypto or its gospel is a traveler in the territory of Cypherpunk."
— Steven LevyToday we journey back to 1993 to explore a seminal article on the cypherpunk movement and the battle for digital privacy. How have the concerns raised three decades ago evolved in our modern digital landscape? What progress has been made, and what challenges remain? Join us as we examine the roots of the crypto revolution and its implications for our future, asking: Are we any closer to achieving the cypherpunks' vision of a privacy-preserving and sovereign digital world?

"When making public policy decisions about new technologies for the Government, I think one should ask oneself which technologies would best strengthen the hand of a police state. Then, do not allow the Government to deploy those technologies."

"My thinking is always resilience. How did I make Proton resilient? And the conclusion I came to after thinking about it for a long time is actually the best way to be resilient is to enable the entire Proton community of 100 million people to very, very easily adopt Bitcoin, which is a form of money that's outside of centralized control." ~ Andy Yen
In this episode of Bitcoin Audible, we dive into a fascinating conversation with Andy Yen, the CEO of Proton, uncovering the intriguing story of how Proton's origins are deeply intertwined with Bitcoin. Discover how this privacy-focused company is challenging the norms by integrating Bitcoin into its ecosystem and offering a non-custodial wallet service.

"Lightning has already achieved a critical mass. It’s already obvious how a Cashu subnetwork and Fedimint subnetworks will communicate with each other: Lightning. That’s how they were designed, so switching the common language between networks would require rebuilding most of their parts. Like English, whatever language subnetworks use internally, Lightning is the language they use to speak to each other, and it’s already locked in." ~ Roy Sheinfeld
Lightning is emerging as the common protocol, or language, for the entire ecosystem of Bitcoin subnets and payment technologies. Will this standardization accelerate innovation and adoption in the Bitcoin ecosystem? What implications does this have for the future of Bitcoin infrastructure and its competition with traditional financial systems?

"Historically, what do nations do when they're on a gold standard and they need to fight a war? They just suspend the gold standard. The difference is that what Bitcoin brings is this decentralization, where if you were truly on a Bitcoin standard, someone in Washington, D.C. couldn't just say, "We're going off the Bitcoin standard now." That's the power that Bitcoin has, that you can actually have a chance at separating money and the state, and that is the most important thing in the world to do."
~ Dave SmithIn this episode of the Bitcoin Audible podcast, I'm releasing an insightful panel discussion from the Bitcoin 2024 event, where I was joined by three brilliant minds - Mark Moss, Luke Gromen, and Dave Smith.We dive deep into a crucial topic: the intersection of government overreach, fiscal irresponsibility, and Bitcoin's transformative potential.
We explore how government control over money has fueled endless wars, cultural manipulation, and economic distortions. Our conversation delves into the ways Bitcoin, and its decentralized nature, might be the key to separating money from state control, leading us toward a future of fiscal responsibility and economic growth.
Join us as we discuss the current landscape of government spending and debt, and how Bitcoin offers a crucial solution to these pressing issues.Original episode on the Bitcoin Magazine YouTube channel (Link: https://tinyurl.com/3xazeffm)
