Show Notes
Marty Bent is the Founder of TFTC and Managing Partner at Ten31, Erik Cason is the Co-Founder of Vora, and American HODL is… American HODL. In this Bitcoin Whitepaper Day special, marking 17 years since Satoshi published the paper that changed the world, the three reflect on Bitcoin’s wild evolution from a fringe internet experiment to a $2 trillion, geopolitically relevant asset. We discuss how Bitcoin can free society from financial decay, why the future risks sliding into either communism or fascism, and why Bitcoiners must walk the narrow middle path to preserve individual sovereignty.

21k Got Bulltardation? This is some SIGNAL. Panopticon be damned, an episode for the ages. Eric Cason and American HODL, philosopher sages of bitcoin sending us once again deeper and to the right of the bell curve. What the f#@k is water? Bitcoin “endgame,” political implications, societal transformations and of course young millionaires playing sports ball. Walker just crushing(per usual) and thankfully admitting he’s not the 200btc meme couple on Nostr. Episode for the ages!

100 My son just joined the Marines and I don’t want him going to defend a bunch of nazi/gangsters in Eastern Europe. and if it’s up to Matt he thinks we should send money and send our military to defend his people. This will be the last podcast I ever listen to with him. Maybe you should be on the front lines fighting Matt instead of pushing America to bankrupt itself and send its sons and daughters to fight for you.

2.1k Great practical home mining advice, Jon. Well into my 3rd decade as a mechanical engineer (we are indeed getting old!), over engineering anything is a big pet peeve of mine and I beat that mental model into my teams. Gall’s Law comes to mind: always start simple and only add complexity once you have high confidence in the foundational design or setup. Ego has no place in a designer’s thinking if a system needs to ‘just work’.
I also heat simply shunt any excess heat in my space with a thermostat controlled damper.
As for Jack, the modular design is cool but unproven in the field.

This “just buy and do nothing” conversation is on point. Seems like every week I’m telling someone…stop…no…what are you doing?…do nothing. They haven’t listened for a decade. Why is it so hard? 🫠🫠🫠

Great podcast guys. I agree with you Eric. That is the way that the game plays out. Move to Paraguay. Debt is low. The young can buy property. Taxes are almost nothing. The bitcoin community is exploding This is the most capitalist country in the world!
