Show Notes

Marty sits down with Scott (@DarkSide2030_), a former Wall Street options trader, to discuss his "Big Long" thesis about how Bitcoin's unique properties as a digital bearer asset will create an unprecedented short squeeze in derivatives markets that could trigger systemic collapse of the traditional financial system.

Knowing the Australian government, they’re going to use the ruse of tax CGT refunds to create a nice handy registry of all Australian BTC owners, ready for when they implement an unrealized capital gains tax after the next pump. Don’t fall for it Aussie holders!

Hey Chris, digging the show. Got a bug in my ear about your podcast from @npub10mtatsat7… ‘s post on Nostr, and I like the way you present the latest news on what factors are influencing Bitcoin’s behaviour and adoption. Keep up the great work 🤙🏽

Great episode, despite the somber mood that has settled across the land. It’s hard not to be affected by it. Thanks for bringing us stories that the legacy media is intentionally suppressing, and for calling out their gross embellishments and glaring omissions. Have a great Friday

Hey Chris, great episode. I think your rebuttal of JL’s criticisms of Bitcoin was right on point. Another thing to consider is that, even for someone born in 1971, it was still 1989 before that person left high school, 1992-1994 before they exited post-secondary, and perhaps another ten years after that before their income achieved a level that started generating any positive flow. Especially if student debt was part of the equation. By 2004 we were already only 4 years short of the GFC. The last group of people that made it ten years into their careers before the Nixon shock were born in 1937. Makes your head spin.

Thanks for continuing to bring us consistent, balanced coverage on Bitcoin news. Still my fave show. My AI friend agrees that not only is your show “X” but it is “Y” lol. Even if the Core code change ends up being a bit of a nothing burger, I think a lot of users have been swayed to run Knots by the elitist heavy handedness the Core devs came across with. Shutting down discourse etc. That and Peter Todd’s supersized ego and smug face. Anyway here’s some sats. Thank you for the great content.

Hey Dave good episode. Here’s a zap for this and some past episodes that I’ve been listening to while driving. Hey on the El Salvador thing, have you heard any comment from Max and Stacey? I’m wondering what their take is on what is effectively indefinite leadership. I’ve also been thinking based on Bukele seeming to be a solid leader, if maybe this is the only route he could see to stop the country falling back to the hell it was only 5 years ago under new leadership.

Maybe I’ll make it out to pubkey someday. Most of my free time is spent smoking blunts and working out. Last time I was in Brooklyn I was chasing a mother fucker around a Construction site with a shovel trying to kill him. That’s when I decided fuck NYC it was right before Covid which the communist like rules just sealed the deal for me to never cross the GW bridge ever again. I said I would never go to NYC ever again, not even for a wedding or a funeral and so far I’ve held to my word.

Good show. It’s notable that neither the Square Bitcoin story nor the BRINGIN story about the Estonian tradfi integration project make any mention of the need for governments to loosen up on tax reporting rules and implementation of deminimus rules regarding spending Bitcoin. Seems like a good way to mass KYC people that have Bitcoin to spend. I dunno….

    Great thesis. Highly likely. Banks and fund managers” and banks’ financial engineer’s incentives make it nearly certain. And the powers that be won’t blame the speculators. They will blame Bitcoin, providing justification for a 1602.
