ℹ️ EPISODE SUMMARY

Bram Kanstein discusses why Bitcoin’s biggest ever weekly dollar gain traces back to US Treasury debt buybacks, not a halving or headlines. He shows how the Whisper Chart, Bitcoin priced in gold, flags turns months before the dollar chart shouts. The Copy Line explains why new tech like AI makes intelligence cheap and pushes value into scarcity. That’s where the Unprintables fit, Bitcoin, gold, and proof of work as unforgeable cost. He confronts the One-Way Bridge of corporate Bitcoin treasuries, and what it means for your own sovereignty.
