On last week’s show @parkeralewis shared his arguments against Bitcoin treasury companies.
This week @DylanLeClair makes the case for them, with a look at what’s next for Metaplanet.
*Note: this show was recorded before the Coldcard news broke, so the hack is not discussed.

“Fast forward 2 years and we have another halving. Another four years and we have another having again.
And at the point where we’re basically under a bitcoin a block, it starts getting pretty expensive to mine bitcoin when the alternative use of energy is AI.”

I operate in the Bitcoin world, so I had to ask @DaveHcontrarian where he sees it going.
He correctly predicted it would crash from $100k to $75k and his current read is still bearish - maybe $50k from here - driven by momentum and sentiment, not fundamentals. But he’s said for years he wants to see how Bitcoin holds up through his global bust forecast before he judges it.
I think it will pass the test…

Is the stock market starting to roll over?
@DaveHcontrarian says equities have another 30% to run – Dow to 70,000, S&P to 10,000 – before it all breaks.
His warning of a global bust and his most specific calls on stocks, bonds, gold and silver.

You can do everything right - cold storage, multisig, a seed phrase nobody could ever guess - but none of it protects you from a wrench attack.
2026 is on pace to be the worst year on record for physical attacks on Bitcoiners, and France has become the case study nobody wanted.
So I asked a simple question: who's the one person to learn this from? Claude and ChatGPT both gave the same name: Jameson @lopp, co-founder and CSO at Casa, and the person who keeps the archive tracking these attacks worldwide.
On July 21 he's doing a live, no-hype session on how not to become the next name on that list: why France became ground zero, how to know your own risk level, what actually protects you versus what's just for show, and your questions answered live.
Every Bitcoiner should hear this one. Register:

Some say the stock market has already topped and they’re bracing for collapse, while @DaveHcontrarian is as bullish as ever…
But in this cycle, he says “time in the market” could eventually cost you everything.

We can say the loan process is efficient. But five stars from a real client beats five paragraphs from us, every time.
Here's my latest interview recorded 7/15/26 with Natalie Brunell @natbrunell. Lots of good discussion about the stock, bond & metals markets as well a coming global bust. Also talked about Kevin Warsh & Fed policy & even a little about BTC(very little).

Julian Liniger expected Bitcoin's early European buyers to be young, anti-bank, anti-government types.
Six years in, they're mostly middle-aged folks with no particular ideology at all, who just want a better way to save...

Who's actually buying Bitcoin right now and who's sitting it out?

Excited to begin my next bitcoin read.
I have heard nothing but great things about @natbrunell's new book,
"Bitcoin is for everyone."
One of Bitcoin’s biggest ideological divides:
Should Bitcoin support digital credit, lending, and financial products?
Or should Bitcoin remain free of those things altogether?
This community debate has gotten 🌶️

Bitcoin or Gold? Some investors are betting on both.
I sat down with Mauricio Di Bartolomeo on gold coming to Ledn, BTC loan market’s path to $1T, and why he's not buying the $40k Bitcoin crash everyone's predicting.
