    I loved the interview with ParkerLewis. He answered questions that I did know how have to ask. It was very informative and I think I have a better understanding of perpetual preferred equity stocks. Natalie you do a great job of interviewing. Thank you.

  • BIP 110

    I’ve liked your show for a few years but you’ve got 110 wrong. It’s meant to keep the blockchain affordable to store on nodes for plebs, to then keep the network decentralized. It’s $400 to keep the blockchain on an ssd because of the bloating. We’re getting priced out, Natalie.

  • Please Go Back To Audio Only! Video Is Terrible and caused buffering non stop!

    First off, this host brings in mostly shills as guest and it’s just a shill fest for price gouging up. Seriously, we don’t need video on the audio only podcast platforms, it’s causing major issues and delays (buffering for long time). Also dude vote, it’s a non stop echo chamber, but I still was giving it a try, now it’s hardly playable with apples broken video. Just please post audio only, you already post on YouTube , we want audio only please, not endless buffering.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Alex Thorn: Tracking the Stolen Bitcoin and the "Red Team" Racing to Find More Bug
Q: Can you talk to me about how you guys even got a handle on this at the beginning, and what you saw that made you realize this isn't some normal crypto wallet theft?
We started tracking the incident on the first day funds were exfiltrated, using on-chain patterns identified by Block engineers to define waves. Victim reports then helped us broaden the pattern recognition, revealing multiple, distinct waves and indicating that the attacker landscape was more complex than a single event.
Mark Moss: "Retire Off Bitcoin" Strategy and How to Build Wealth in Any Market
Q: Do you think we're set up for another big crash given AI leverage and debt in tech companies?
Crashes are always possible, but history shows central banks and policymakers have repeatedly stepped in to stabilize markets; in the near term, volatility may persist, but a repeat of 2008-style systemic collapse is unlikely, though not impossible.
Mark Moss: "Retire Off Bitcoin" Strategy and How to Build Wealth in Any Market
Q: What do you think it will take for capital to rotate back into Bitcoin?
Capital rotation depends on broader macro conditions and the perception that Bitcoin offers superior risk-adjusted returns; over time, a mix of improving fundamentals, macro liquidity, and institutional interest can pull capital into Bitcoin, even during bear markets.
COLDCARD Attack Explained Simply with Rob Hamilton
Q: How does entropy relate to seed phrases and why is this vulnerability so dangerous?
Entropy governs the unpredictability of seed phrases; if entropy is insufficient and the seed is generateable within a narrow subset, attackers can brute-force the remaining possibilities rapidly, compromising funds.
COLDCARD Attack Explained Simply with Rob Hamilton
Q: What happened here and who is at risk with which models?
The MK3 model (2011-2023) is the most at risk, followed by MK4 and MK5 to a lesser extent; funds should be moved promptly if still on these devices, especially MK3, with urgent steps to upgrade security.
