Was a recent break-in at a luxurious hotel just a coincidence, or a targeted attack on a Bitcoiner? We should expect that bitcoiners will be targeted. If not by governments, then simply by thieves, scammers, and opportunists. This is something that my brother and I learned very acutely with our trip to Lugano and the Plan B conference, where a man broke into our hotel room presumably to get access to our devices or steal any valuables we may have been traveling with, and we caught him in the act. This episode is a lesson in preparedness, complacency, and hopefully a wake up call to those who think things will be smooth sailing. Don't be one who has to learn the truth the hard way.

"One need not destroy one's enemy. One need only destroy his willingness to engage."
— Sun Tzu

"The market of bitcoin holders will ultimately expand to be larger than the size of any single country, and direct exchange will be possible by and between more people than ever before. That itself might be the single largest driving force that will expand the scope of trade and direct exchange–more people holding and being willing to accept bitcoin will create more trade channels than could possibly exist in the fiat world."
— Parker Lewis

Is it paradoxical that bitcoin's value could increase as it becomes easier to spend? In this episode, we explore the idea that bitcoin's value is rooted in its utility as a medium of exchange, and what this might mean for its future adoption and use.

In a episode of TFTC, I sat down with Marty Bent to break down the reality behind the hurricanes devastating America and the government's inept or even malicious response to these disasters. We explored the absurdity of resource allocation, the overwhelming destruction, and how people on the ground are often 1000x more effective than the bureaucratic systems in place. We also discussed the important work of Bitcoin Veterans, and how disaster and conflict can turn into rackets.

Throughout the conversation, we touched on the lethargy of government in the face of urgent crises and how open-source innovation, including AI, could provide better solutions. This was an important and insightful discussion that cuts through mainstream narratives, revealing truths that need to be heard. It’s a valuable conversation that I’m excited to share again.
