Bitcoin doesn’t win by forcing everyone to run a node, it wins by fading into the background. In this conversation, Brandon Green sits down with Peter McKormack to discuss leaving What Bitcoin Did, Bitcoin UX, ETFs, and why invisible adoption matters most.

Brandon Green and David Bailey sit down for a conversation about the future of BTC Inc, Nakamoto, and Bitcoin itself. Bailey outlines why his mission is to “hijack the financial system,” how public-company risk works behind the scenes, and why bitcoin’s market structure is changing forever. He lays out a 50-year roadmap: trillions in value creation, a global bitcoin reserve, and hyperbitcoinization driven through capital markets. 🔶 Brandon Green - BTC Inc. 🔶 David Bailey - Nakamoto/BTC Inc. ⭐ Subscribe to Bitcoin Magazine Print to get our latest release "The Finance Issue" featuring exclusive content with Michael Saylor: https://store.bitcoinmagazine.com/collections/magazines Chapters: 00:00 – Hijacking the Financial System 00:24 – Welcome to the New Bitcoin Magazine Podcast 01:04 – CEO Transition: How BTC Inc Handed the Torch 03:27 – Capital, Scale & Opportunity 05:50 – What Running a Public Bitcoin Company Really Takes 08:44 – Stock Price Chaos & the Discipline of Execution 10:42 – The 50-Year Vision: Bitcoin as Humanity’s Reserve Asset 13:07 – Building a Trillion-Dollar Bitcoin Company 15:49 – The ‘Hijack’ Strategy Explained 17:44 – Bitcoin Amsterdam Recap & Movement Building 19:32 – Macro Risk & Market Signals 21:52 – Custody, Counterparty Risk & Survival Playbooks 24:32 – Bear Markets as Opportunity: The Experimental Strategy 27:21 – Is the Four-Year Cycle Dead? 30:15 – Staying in the Game #Bitcoin #BitcoinStrategy #Nakamoto #BitcoinMagazine #DavidBailey #BrandonGreen #Hyperbitcoinization #BitcoinPodcast #CorporateBitcoin #BitcoinLeadership #BitcoinMarkets #SoundMoney #BTC DISCLAIMER: The views and opinions expressed in this show are those of the participants and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of BTC Inc., Bitcoin Magazine, or any affiliated entities.

In this X Space hosted by Isaiah Austin (Bitcoin Magazine) with Hunter Albright (SALT) and Maurizio Pedrazzoli Grazioli (Mr. M Podcast Host) explore why the MENA region—especially the UAE—is rapidly emerging as one of the world’s most forward-leaning hubs for bitcoin adoption. From a young, globally diverse population to strong cross-border financial needs and a deep cultural understanding of hard assets like gold, MENA offers a unique environment for bitcoin to thrive. They break down the region’s regulatory clarity, real-world use cases, rising institutional interest, and how both individuals and corporations are using BTC as a tool for savings, remittances, lending, and long-term wealth preservation. As sovereign wealth funds, entrepreneurs, and everyday users push innovation forward, the region is shaping what a truly bitcoin-powered economy can look like. #Bitcoin #BTC #BitcoinAdoption #MENA #UAE #Dubai #AbuDhabi #CryptoRegulation #DigitalAssets #BitcoinLending #BitcoinInnovation #BitcoinEconomy #HardMoney #FinancialSovereignty #BitcoinMagazine

This week on Bitcoin Policy Hour, Zack Cohen, Zack Shapiro, and Ken Egan break down a change in U.S. financial policy: the Bitcoin for America Act, a bill that could allow Americans to pay taxes in bitcoin and fund a strategic national bitcoin reserve. We also explore Middle East Bitcoin adoption, why Harvard’s endowment just made BTC its largest equity position, and the economic crisis facing young Americans — with new research showing it may take $140,000 a year just to survive in 2024. 🔶 Connect with Zack Shapiro on X: https://x.com/zackbshapiro 🔶 Connect with Zack Cohen on X: https://x.com/zackcohen_ 🔶 Connect with Ken Egan on X: https://x.com/Bayman11771 🔶 Learn more about the Bitcoin Policy Institute: https://www.btcpolicy.org/ ⭐ Subscribe to Bitcoin Magazine Print to get our latest release "The Finance Issue" featuring exclusive content with Michael Saylor: https://store.bitcoinmagazine.com/collections/magazines 00:00 – Why 2025 Is a Breaking Point for the Economy 01:23 – Introducing The Bitcoin for America Act 02:36 – What the Bill Actually Does 05:00 – Top 3 Benefits of Paying Taxes in Bitcoin 07:03 – Could Taxes Fund a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve? 08:42 – Bitcoin as U.S. Treasury Strategy 11:26 – Quantitative Model Walkthrough 13:52 – Harvard & Institutions Quietly Stack Bitcoin 15:29 – Market Reactions & Institutional Sentiment 17:31 – Bitcoin Adoption Surges in the Middle East 22:24 – Are Nation States Preparing for Bitcoin? 24:04 – Pubkey DC — Inside Bitcoin’s Embassy in Washington 33:27 – New Hampshire’s BitBond & State-Level Debt Instruments 42:09 – “My Life Is a Lie” — The Michael Green Report 44:38 – AI, UBI & Bitcoin Price: Future of the Economy 47:20 – The Social Contract Is Breaking — Now What? 57:17 – Can Bitcoin Restore Hope for the Next Generation? 59:55 – Closing #BitcoinForAmerica #BitcoinTax #StrategicReserve #BitcoinPolicy #BPI #HarvardBitcoin #AbuDhabiBitcoin #PubKeyDC #TrumpBitcoin #Bitbonk #BitcoinDip #InflationGap #AIJobs #BitcoinSovereignty #BrokenMoney #EconomicDecay #bitcoinfuture DISCLAIMER: The views and opinions expressed in this show are those of the participants and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of BTC Inc., Bitcoin Magazine, or any affiliated entities.

Originally recorded as a live X Space and now available as a podcast episode: SALT CEO Hunter Albright joins Bitcoin Magazine’s Mark Mason and host Isaiah Austin to dissect Europe’s accelerating Bitcoin adoption. From MiCA’s regulatory tailwind to nation-state strategic reserves and the surge in BTC-backed lending, this discussion cuts through the noise on where real momentum is building. Europe is outpacing Asia and the US in institutional Bitcoin integration, with small businesses quietly converting revenue to BTC for fast liquidity—no banks required. As digital IDs roll out in the UK, Bitcoin emerges as the clean opt-out for true financial sovereignty. Hunter breaks down SALT’s collateralized lending: no credit checks, Shield protection against liquidation, and borrowing against BTC as the smarter path to wealth acceleration. Europe’s HODL-lend-treasury hybrid is quietly shaping up as the blueprint for the next bull cycle.

In this episode of The Bitcoin Policy Hour, the conversation turns to the accelerating game theory of institutional adoption—why major banks, asset managers, and policymakers now find it strategically necessary to engage with Bitcoin. From JP Morgan’s acceptance of bitcoin as collateral to shifting credit dynamics and liquidity constraints, the panel unpacks how traditional finance is being pulled, not pushed, into digital monetary infrastructure.But with adoption comes risk. As bitcoin transitions from a counter-institutional asset to a core financial instrument, questions of governance, regulatory capture, and monetary independence take center stage. Is Bitcoin’s integration into Wall Street a validation of its inevitability—or a test of its principles? This episode examines both the bullish structural forces and the subtle dangers behind Bitcoin’s institutional era. 🔶 Connect with Zack Shapiro on X: https://x.com/zackbshapiro 🔶 Connect with Zack Cohen on X: https://x.com/zackcohen_ 🔶 Connect with Ken Egan on X: https://x.com/Bayman11771 🔶 Connect with Stephen Pollock on X: https://x.com/spollockbtc 🔶 Learn more about the Bitcoin Policy Institute: https://www.btcpolicy.org/⭐ Subscribe to Bitcoin Magazine Print to get our latest release "The Finance Issue" featuring exclusive content with Michael Saylor: https://store.bitcoinmagazine.com/collections/magazines Chapters: 00:00 – Bessent Tweets & Bitcoin Headlines: Institutions Have Arrived01:20 - Samourai Wallet Sentencing10:00 – JP Morgan Accepts Bitcoin as Collateral - Implications15:00 – Bitcoin as Global Collateral20:00 – The Overton Window Shift in Finance27:00 – Institutional Accumulation and Market Dynamics34:00 – Market Structure and the Role of ETFs40:00 – The Changing Face of Bitcoin Ownership47:00 – Risks of Institutional Capture52:00 – Bitcoin as a Tool for Freedom58:00 – The BPI Mission #Bitcoin #InstitutionalAdoption #WallStreet #JPmorgan #CorporateFinance #BitcoinPolicyHour #BTC #DigitalAssets #BitcoinCollateral #FinancialInnovation #MacroFinance #BitcoinStrategy #CFOInsights #TreasuryManagement #MonetaryPolicy #GlobalFinance #BitcoinRegulation #CryptoMarkets #LiquidityCrisis #gametheory DISCLAIMER: The views and opinions expressed in this show are those of the participants and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of BTC Inc., Bitcoin Magazine, or any affiliated entities.

Germany’s Bitcoin transformation is underway. In this episode of Bitcoin for Corporations host Pierre Rochard sits down with Garry Krugljakow, CEO of the German fintech-turned-Bitcoin-treasury company aifinyo. Together, they unpack how a publicly listed firm in Europe’s largest economy is pioneering a new corporate model merging technology, sound money, and balance-sheet strategy. With Germany’s favorable tax structure, deep capital markets, and a growing Bitcoin-savvy population, aifinyo’s pivot signals the beginning of a continental shift toward a Bitcoin-based financial future. As traditional finance converges with digital hard money, this conversation reveals how Europe’s business landscape could evolve over the next decade — from fintech innovation to full corporate adoption of Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset.

Strategy (MSTR) just reported Q3 earnings, and this episode breaks down the most important developments shaping the future of the world’s first and largest bitcoin treasury company. Host Pierre Rochard and producer Spencer Nichols dive into the numbers, the updated capital strategy, and how the “BTC Refinery Model” is redefining corporate balance sheets in the Bitcoin era. We explore why MSTR raised the STRC dividend to 10.5% at the same time the Federal Reserve is cutting rates, and what this counter-cyclical move signals about Strategy’s ambitions. The discussion also clarifies the difference between leverage and amplification—a point many investors still misunderstand—and why preferred equity has become the cornerstone of Saylor’s approach to harnessing bitcoin’s volatility for equity holders rather than fighting it. And finally, they discuss the B- credit rating conferred to Strategy by S&P, and what this means for the future of bitcoin-backed credit instruments.

In episode 19 of The Bitcoin Policy Hour, Washington is tightening its grip on crypto. Zack Cohen, Zack Shapiro, and Ken Egan of the Bitcoin Policy Institute break down what that really means for your wallet and your freedom to build. From the fallout over the leaked DeFi regulation memo to renewed fights on Capitol Hill over self-custody and market structure, this week’s discussion dives into how power, politics, and innovation are colliding in D.C. From President Trump's pardon of former Binance CEO CZ to how quantum computing breakthroughs could challenge Bitcoin’s security to how the conflict between stablecoins and traditional banking might change the future of money — the BPI team analyzes the shifting political economy of Bitcoin. 🔶 Connect with Zack Shapiro on X: https://x.com/zackbshapiro 🔶 Connect with Zack Cohen on X: https://x.com/zackcohen _ 🔶 Connect with Ken Egan on X: https://x.com/Bayman11771 🔶 Learn more about the Bitcoin Policy Institute: https://www.btcpolicy.org/ ⭐ Subscribe to Bitcoin Magazine Print to get our latest release “The Finance Issue” featuring exclusive content with Michael Saylor: https://store.bitcoinmagazine.com/collections/magazines Chapters: 00:00 – Quantum & Satoshi’s Coins 00:31 – Welcome to Bitcoin Policy Hour 01:20 – DeFi Leak Derails D.C.

Méliuz ($CASH3) — a leading Brazilian e-commerce platform with 42+ million users — has transformed itself and become the country's first bitcoin treasury company. In this episode of the Bitcoin for Corporations Show, host Pierre Rochard sits down with Méliuz Chairman Israel Salmen and Director of Bitcoin Strategy Mason Foard to break down how they took a zombie company and turned it into a growing bitcoin-backed business. They explore Méliuz's market crash and its subsequent re-invention inspired by Strategy (MSTR), and how the regulatory and financial backdrop of the Brazilian market (high inflation and high interest rates) presents unique opportunities and challenges for corporate bitcoin adoption.

Isabella Santos sits down with Ian Carroll to unpack Bitcoin as a tool for sovereignty and privacy in a world of corporate power and surveillance. Ian traces his path from GameStop to crypto to a Bitcoin-first mindset, and explains why the 21M cap, culture, and consensus matter.

In this episode of the Bitcoin for Corporations Show, host Pierre Rochard is joined by Khing Oei, Founder and CEO of Treasury, to unpack one of the most important macro theses in modern finance: how Bitcoin is evolving beyond "digital gold" to become the capital base layer of the global economy — and why that shift could disrupt credit markets at their core. Oei shares his expertise in credit markets and distressed asset investing, breaking down why Bitcoin treasury companies exist while gold treasury companies never emerged, and how equity issuance, regulatory arbitrage, and balance sheet engineering are accelerating institutional Bitcoin adoption. The conversation explores how securitized Bitcoin products and corporate treasury structures could unlock a massive wave of demand — creating a reflexive feedback loop that transforms balance sheets, yield curves, and global capital flows. You’ll also learn how Europe’s regulatory landscape and tax treatment are shaping the next phase of Bitcoin-backed credit, why companies like MicroStrategy pioneered this model, and how future corporate issuers could become engines of structural demand far larger than ETFs or retail investors.

In this exclusive Bitcoin Conference interview, legendary entrepreneur and real estate mogul Grant Cardone shares his bold new investment thesis: merging institutional real estate with Bitcoin. Cardone breaks down his powerful formula for wealth — get it, keep it, multiply it — and explains why he’s using cash-flowing property to dollar-cost average into Bitcoin without needing to "buy" it outright. He also discusses how renters are effectively buying Bitcoin for his investors, why most people misunderstand wealth creation, and how his model will onboard millions of people into Bitcoin without them ever realizing it. From critiques of the middle-class mindset to his hottest takes on Bitcoin adoption and Michael Saylor’s approach, this is one of Cardone’s most candid conversations ever. ⭐ SIGN UP WITH DUELBITS TODAY FOR A CHANCE TO WIN UP TO 2 BTC: https://bm.b.tc/YT-Duelbits (ad) Connect with Grant Cardone on X: https://x.com/GrantCardone Connect with Isabella Santos on X: https://x.com/isabellasg3 Chapters:00:00 – Intro: The Formula for Money & Attention02:31 – Renters Buying Bitcoin: Dollar-Cost Averaging Strategy04:25 – The Wealth Creation Myth vs. Reality06:19 – Printing Money & Why the Rich Still Get Richer08:04 – How to Get, Keep, and Multiply Money10:34 – Advice for the Middle Class11:22 – Real Estate vs. Bitcoin: Cash Flow vs. Store of Value13:53 – Cardone’s Bitcoin Sales Pitch16:25 – Cardone’s Hottest Take: Onboarding People Who Don’t Care About Bitcoin17:36 – Michael Saylor’s Criticism and Cardone’s Response #GrantCardone #Bitcoin #RealEstate #BitcoinConference #RealEstateInvesting #BitcoinStrategy #WealthBuilding #FinancialFreedom #CashFlow #MicroStrategy #BitcoinAdoption #BitcoinNews #PassiveIncome #MoneyMindset #CryptoInvesting

In this episode of the Bitcoin for Corporations Show, host Pierre Rochard sits down with Alexandre Laizet, Board Director of Bitcoin Strategy at Capital B, to unpack one of the most important – and most misunderstood – forces shaping Bitcoin’s future: reflexive demand. Laizet explains why a self-reinforcing feedback loop is emerging in the Bitcoin market, where corporate demand drives price, rising price drives further adoption, credit worthiness and financial development, and the cycle accelerates. With just a handful of Bitcoin treasury companies already absorbing more BTC than miners produce, he argues that the next phase of Bitcoin’s bull market will be defined not by retail speculation, but by structural corporate demand.

In Episode 17 of the Bitcoin for Corporations Show, Steven Lubka, VP of Investor Relations at Nakamoto, joins host Pierre Rochard to discuss Bitcoin treasury strategy and the growing BTC bull market.

In an era where free markets are increasingly shaped by state power, investors need to understand the nexus of geopolitics, political economy and exponential technologies as a tool of statecraft. BPI’s Matt Pines and Zack Shapiro join Zack Cohen to examine how U.S. industrial policy, AI breakthroughs, and Bitcoin regulation are converging to reshape global markets. The conversation explores the latest market structure bill and its impact on Bitcoin liquidity, the strategic Bitcoin reserve as a potential geopolitical hedge, and what Intel’s bailout signals about the rise of national champions and state-directed capital allocation. The discussion goes beyond policy into the heart of investing in an age of fiscal dominance and technological disruption. How should investors interpret the tension between free markets and government intervention? What does AI-driven productivity and labor displacement mean for macro volatility? And in a world where political cycles, liquidity cycles, and market cycles are increasingly intertwined, can Bitcoin serve as a neutral reserve asset, hedge, and beneficiary of state-led capitalism?🔶 Connect with Matthew Pines on X: https://x.com/matthew_pines 🔶 Connect with Zack Shapiro on X: https://x.com/zackbshapiro 🔶 Connect with Zack Cohen on X: https://x.com/zackcohen_ 🔶 Learn more about the Bitcoin Policy Institute: https://www.btcpolicy.org/ ⭐ Join US at Bitcoin Amsterdam 2025, presented by Treasury on Nov 13-14th!
