    Housing Crash, Immigration Crisis & Economic Ruin | Rabidoux & Temprile

    BTC Sessions Ep. 079: Housing Crash Exposed, Immigration Crisis & Economy on the Brink | Ben Rabidoux Canada's private sector is shrinking, homes in Ontario are selling for half their 2021 price, and 525,000 asylum claimants are stuck in a backlog with no real mechanism to remove bad actors. Ben Rabideau has been sounding the alarm since 2021 — and the data is finally catching up. In this episode, Ben Rabideau — one of Canada's most respected economic analysts — breaks down what the headline GDP numbers are hiding, why consumer confidence is as low as the depths of the 2008 financial crisis, and what the Bank of Canada's next move will hinge on. You'll learn why stripping out public sector employment reveals a deeply negative private sector jobs picture, how Ontario's housing market is producing court-ordered sales at 50 cents on the dollar, and why Ben believes single-family prices may be near a bottom — while rentals have years of decline ahead. You'll also get a clear-eyed look at Canada's asylum system vulnerabilities, the immigration fraud pipeline that ran through colleges like Conestoga, and why an AI policy framework written by an art dealer should concern every Canadian. ⏱️ Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 1:56 - Technical Recession and Population Decline 2:39 - Ontario BC versus Alberta Economic Split 4:37 - Oil Prices and Alberta Investment Boom 6:06 - Government Policy Well Meaning or Incompetent 10:12 - Immigration Tightening What Has Changed 13:11 - Bank of Canada Rate Cut Binary 15:06 - Stripping Public Sector Jobs Picture 22:10 - Consumer Confidence at Crisis Lows 27:32 - Court Ordered Home Sales at Half Price 32:59 - Boomer Millennial Housing Transfer by 2030s 39:21 - US Housing 30 Year Mortgage Lock In 41:23 - Rising Credit Card and Mortgage Delinquencies 48:10 - Bill C 22 AI and Surveillance Issues 57:29 - Asylum Backlog and Immigration Fraud 1:03:18 - Common Sense Immigration Reforms 1:06:54 - Following Ben Rabideau and Edge Analytics 🔗 Links & Resources: • Ben's Research: www.edgeanalytics.ca - USE PROMO EDGE30 / EDGE330 to drops monthly/annual subscription price to $30/$330 • Ben Rabidoux on X: https://x.com/BenRabidoux • Joey on X: https://x.com/JoeyTweeets 💡BOOK Private Sessions with Nathan, Benn and the BTC Mentor Team: Master self-custody, hardware, multisig, Lightning, privacy, and more. 👉 Visit btcmentor.io • Sovereign Sessions — AI, Privacy, and Bitcoin education: http://youtube.com/@SovereignSessions?sub_confirmation=1 📌 Previous Episodes: Doomberg & James Lavish → https://youtu.be/uCQStzvsnEU Simon Dixon → https://youtu.be/Aza4GAjQffw ⚡ POWERED by Abundant Mines: Fully managed Bitcoin mining.

    Simon Dixon Called The End Of The Iran War - Here’s What Happens Next

    BTC Sessions Ep. 078: The Iran War Was Theatrical, FIC Wins & Bitcoin Manipulation Exposed | Simon Dixon The Iran ceasefire was timed to the SpaceX IPO. The petrodollar is being deliberately broken. And your Bitcoin is being systematically moved into institutional custody — whether you realize it or not. Simon Dixon returns to lay out exactly how the managed transition to a multipolar world works, who's pulling the strings, and why self-custody is the only rational response. You'll learn why Simon argues China — not the US — won the financial and geopolitical contest, how the closure of the Strait of Hormuz was a manufactured pricing event to concentrate wealth upward, and why BlackRock's new Bitcoin Premium Income ETF is a carrot designed to get you to hand over your keys. You'll also understand the connection between digital ID legislation in the UK and Canada, AI surveillance infrastructure, and the "you will own nothing" endgame Simon has been tracking for years. Specific signals covered include the 30-year yield, the Japan carry trade break, the Bank of Japan rate hike to 1%, and the bond market dynamics that set the timeline for the entire war. ⏱️ Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 1:14 - Simon Dixon Returns: Iran Deal and SpaceX IPO Timing 1:56 - China Wins: Financial Industrial Complex vs Transnational Capital 3:22 - Netanyahu as Middle Management in Power Hierarchy 3:58 - Multipolar Transition: Middle East as Financial Corridor 5:24 - Sovereign Wealth Funds and Informal Capital Alliance 6:41 - Manufacturing Strait of Hormuz Crisis for Wealth 7:38 - Markets Reveal Iran War as Theater via Oil Gold Bonds 9:25 - Liquidity Needs: Ping-Trump Meeting and SpaceX IPO 11:21 - Managed Transition and Bounded Escalation Explained 14:52 - Iran Deepens China Ties, Israel Pivots to GCC 16:24 - UAE Exits OPEC Breaking Petrodollar for New Security Model 19:46 - Israel Decapitates IRGC Hardliners for Regional Deal 25:16 - Multipolar World AI Dominance and Nuclear Energy Prize 30:48 - Funding Iran's Reconstruction and Revealing Contracts 39:51 - Middle Class Asset Strip Completed or More Ahead 42:38 - Bank of Japan 1% Hike Breaks Carry Trade 48:27 - Digital ID Laws and AI Surveillance Endgame 55:56 - BlackRock and Strategy Centralize Bitcoin Custody 1:01:51 - SBF Celsius and Covert Crypto Deleveraging Networks 1:08:16 - If Trump Serves Americans Nothing Makes Sense • About Simon Dixon X: @SimonDixonTwitt YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@UC_wNYJCyycXXPmWni2JNZhQ 💡BOOK Private Sessions with Nathan, Benn and the BTC Mentor Team: Master self-custody, hardware, multisig, Lightning, privacy, and more. 👉 Visit btcmentor.io • Sovereign Sessions — AI, Privacy, and Bitcoin education: http://youtube.com/@SovereignSessions?sub_confirmation=1 📌 Previous Episodes: Doomberg & James Lavish → https://youtu.be/uCQStzvsnEU Simon Dixon & Dave Collum → https://youtu.be/cqQ5l2zZxrA ⚡ POWERED by Abundant Mines: Fully managed Bitcoin mining.

    US Iran Failure, Bitcoin Bear Market Over, Yield Curve Control | Doomberg & Lavish

    Mentor Sessions Ep. 077: US Iran Failure, Bitcoin Bear Market Over & Yield Curve Control | Doomberg & James Lavish The Iran ceasefire just reshuffled global energy, dollar dominance, and Bitcoin's role as sound money — James Doomberg breaks down what it actually means for your portfolio in 2026. In this episode, Nathan sits down with James Doomberg — one of the sharpest macro and energy analysts in the space — to unpack the cascade of events reshaping markets right now. You'll learn why the Iran ceasefire is a bigger geopolitical pivot than most investors realize, how the SpaceX IPO may function as a financial suppression tool for retail capital, and why Doomberg believes energy markets are sending misleading signals driven by Chinese demand dynamics and a global overbuild. You'll also see exactly why Bitcoin and gold are rising in tandem — and why Doomberg argues monetary debasement makes that trend structural, not cyclical. Finally, you'll understand what yield curve control would mean for bond holders and why the K-shaped economy is deepening in ways that make sound money more critical than ever. • Sovereign Sessions — AI, Privacy, and Bitcoin education: http://youtube.com/@SovereignSessions?sub_confirmation=1 ⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00 Bitcoin Bear Market is Over 00:10 The Iran War Outcome 00:26 China Flexes Oil Power 00:35 K-Shaped Economy & Credit Card Defaults 00:43 Yield Curve Control & Money Printing 00:52 SpaceX as Financial Suppression 01:09 Intro & Context 06:25 US Achieved None of Its Objectives in Iran 07:34 Gold & Bitcoin Bullish After Iran 08:17 Bear Market in Bitcoin is Over 09:40 A Profound & Historic Outcome 10:20 US Dollar Dominance is Cracking 11:10 Freezing Russian Assets Was a Catastrophic Mistake 14:28 Bitcoin Bear Market is Over (Revisited) 15:38 All Roads Lead to Yield Curve Control 17:45 Multipolar World & Weaker Dollar 19:29 Massive Money Printing is Coming 24:26 Gold & Bitcoin Will Rip Higher 26:32 SpaceX Ponzi as Financial Suppression 32:07 The Lottery Effect & Tax Receipts 37:20 K-Shaped Economy is Getting Worse 46:27 Cantillon Effect Explained 50:14 Oil is Going Way Lower 54:39 What to Watch Next (Fed, Japan, Ukraine) 🔗 Links & Resources: → Doomberg Substack: https://doomberg.substack.com → https://x.com/DoombergT → James Lavish Newsletter (The Informationist): https://jameslavish.substack.com → https://x.com/jameslavish 📌 Previous Episodes: Tom Luongo & Nolan Bauerle → https://youtu.be/XGPaWFavFqk ⚡ POWERED by Abundant Mines: Fully managed Bitcoin mining.

    New Law Creates ‘Giant Surveillance Map’ of Every Citizen | Dr. Michael Geist

    Mentor Sessions Ep. 076: The Giant Surveillance Map Canada Wants to Build on Every Citizen, Encryption Backdoors Coming to Bill C-22, and What Bitcoiners Must Know | Dr. Michael Geist Canada's Bill C-22 would force companies to retain your metadata for up to 12 months, potentially mandate encryption backdoors, and could push Signal out of Canada entirely — and it affects Five Eyes allies including Americans. In this episode, legal scholar and digital rights expert Professor Michael Geist breaks down exactly what's in Bill C-22 (Canada's lawful access legislation), why mandatory metadata retention is far more invasive than the government admits, and how the bill contradicts Canada's own stated commitment to privacy rights. You'll learn why Signal has said it cannot operate under these requirements, how Five Eyes intelligence sharing means American data could be swept into this net, and what ordinary Canadians can actually do before Parliament reconvenes in September 2026. You'll also see how Canada's "AI for All" strategy is in direct tension with its surveillance ambitions — and why Professor Geist says you can't create a fundamental right to privacy in the morning and mandate metadata collection in the afternoon. ⏱️ Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 1:03 - Professor Michael Geist on Bill C-22 1:57 - Lawful Access and the Surveillance Debate 3:22 - Bill C-22 Metadata Retention and Encryption 6:17 - Why Metadata Reveals More Than Content 8:01 - Police Use Case for Mass Metadata 9:24 - Evidence Justifying New Surveillance Powers 11:19 - Bill C-22 Supreme Court Challenge Risk 12:47 - Five Eyes Data Sharing Concerns 14:27 - Global Surveillance Laws in Australia and UK 18:12 - Signal Threatens to Exit Canada 19:54 - Economic Risks to Canadian Tech Sector 20:53 - Privacy Rights Versus Metadata Mandates 22:36 - How Canadians Can Push Back on Bill C-22 26:47 - Canada's AI for All Strategy Explained 31:16 - Digital Sovereignty and Foreign Data Centers 37:16 - Gaps in the AI Strategy 39:25 - Social Media Age Verification Rules 43:39 - Final Thoughts From Professor Geist 🔗 Links & Resources: • Professor Michael Geist's website: https://www.michaelgeist.ca • Michael Geist on Substack: https://michaelgeist.substack.com • Michael Geist on X/Twitter: https://x.com/mgeist • Sovereign Sessions — AI, Privacy, and Bitcoin education: http://youtube.com/@SovereignSessions?sub_confirmation=1 📌 Previous Episodes: Tom Luongo & Nolan Bauerle → https://youtu.be/XGPaWFavFqk ⚡ POWERED by Abundant Mines: Fully managed Bitcoin mining.

    Trump Weaponizing Bitcoin & Dollar to Crush European Globalists | Luongo & Bauerle

    Mentor Sessions Ep. 075: The Brutal Truth About Bitcoin in the NEW Dollar System, The Death of the Uniparty, and How Trump Is Rewiring Global Trade | Tom Luongo & Nolan Bauerle Bitcoin will be a collateral asset in the new dollar system — not the immediate replacement for it. Tom Luongo and Nolan Bauerle map out exactly why that order of operations matters, who is fighting it, and what the Iran conflict, Fannie/Freddie, and the Alaska-Russia trade corridor all have to do with Bitcoin's ultimate role. In this conversation you'll learn why Tom Luongo argues Wall Street already has the Bitcoin bug and the energy industry is next — and why that sequence, not retail adoption, is what actually shifts monetary reality. You'll see how Nolan Bauerle connects Bitcoin's "don't trust, verify" ethos directly to election integrity and why Bitcoiners broke so decisively for Trump in 2026. You'll understand the bimetallic framework Tom has been building for two years: America, Russia, China (ARC) as the geostrategic reality, with Bitcoin and gold as the collateral layer underneath a redesigned dollar system. And you'll hear both guests explain why the City of London's 40-year control of the eurodollar market — and its grip on Fannie, Freddie, and long-end yield curves — is the hidden architecture of the war being fought right now. ⏱️ Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 1:32 - Tom's 30,000 Foot View on Iran 3:34 - Rewiring Trade Away from Choke Points 5:20 - Iran's Collapse and IRGC Private Equity 7:15 - Trump Wins Civil War Inside GOP 9:31 - MAGA Civil War Narrative is Fake 10:29 - Bitcoin Inside Dollar Framework 12:07 - Dollar Dominance with Bitcoin Collateral 19:03 - Bimetallism Stablecoins and Sound Money 22:12 - Wall Street Bitcoin and Energy Next 30:52 - Dollar Liquidity Crisis and SOFR 44:22 - Why Bitcoiners Voted for Trump 47:15 - Election Integrity and Prediction Markets 53:12 - Privacy Property Rights vs CBDC 59:49 - Government Audits and Transparency Shift 1:05:29 - Fannie Freddie 2008 Theft and London 1:13:48 - Summer Dollar Crisis and Trump Moves 1:18:20 - Alaska Russia Bridge and ARC Trade 1:21:49 - Why Satoshi Used Japanese Pseudonym 🔗 Links & Resources: Tom Luongo — Gold Goats & Guns Newsletter: https://patreon.com/goldgoatsnguns Tom Luongo on X: https://x.com/TFL1728 Nolan Bauerle on X: https://x.com/countbtc Nolan Bauerle on Rumble: https://rumble.com/user/Countbtc • Sovereign Sessions — AI, Privacy, and Bitcoin education: http://youtube.com/@SovereignSessions?sub_confirmation=1 📌 Previous Episodes: Jeff Booth & Samson Mow → https://youtu.be/VzTXm18d3oA ⚡ POWERED by Abundant Mines: Fully managed Bitcoin mining.

    AI House of Cards, Dystopia Warning, Bitcoin Mining Wins | Samson Mow & Jeff Booth

    073: Why AI Mania Is a Trillion-Dollar Trap, Why Freedom Is Eroding Into Real-Time Dystopia, and How Bitcoin Mining Absorbs the Entire Oversupply | Samson Mow & Jeff Booth The fiat debt system is mathematically insolvent — and Jeff Booth and Samson Mow lay out exactly why the pain is coming whether you own Bitcoin or not. This is one of the most direct conversations on financial sovereignty, AI capital misallocation, and the closing window for individual freedom you'll find anywhere in 2026. You'll learn why Jeff believes the 4-year Bitcoin cycle theory has been broken and what's actually driving sideways price action right now. You'll see how Samson connects AI infrastructure over-investment to a dot-com-style collapse — and why Bitcoin mining is positioned to absorb the fallout. You'll understand the specific tools — Fedimint, Aqua Wallet, self-custody, running a node — that let you exit the system before governments restrict freedom of movement. And you'll hear both guests explain why AI will eviscerate DeFi protocols like Ethereum and Solana, draining funds and pushing survivors back to Bitcoin. ⏱️ Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 1:09 - Introducing Jeff Booth and Samson Mow 2:00 - Bitcoin Four-Year Cycle Theory Is Broken 3:17 - AI Driving Capital Rotation From Bitcoin 4:49 - AI Mania Dwarfs the Dot-Com Bubble 7:47 - Local AI Inference and Oversupply Risks 11:40 - Stablecoins Trap Users in Fiat 14:34 - Are Cypherpunks Disappearing From Bitcoin? 16:22 - Barriers to Nation-State Bitcoin Adoption 22:20 - Fiat Debt System Is an Illusion 31:17 - Governments Will Restrict Freedom of Movement 33:51 - We Are Already Living in the Matrix 41:47 - Bitcoin ETFs: Evolution or Centralized Capture? 47:54 - Practical Steps to Reclaim Sovereignty 51:44 - Fedimint and Essential Bitcoin Privacy Tools 54:24 - AI Accelerating Altcoin Death Spiral 57:50 - Liquid, Lightning and Aqua Wallet Explained 🔗 Links & Resources: • Jan3: https://jan3.com • Samon X: https://x.com/Excellion • Jeff Booth's website: https://jeffreybooth.com/ • Jeff NOSTR: jeffbooth@nostrverified.com • Sovereign Sessions — AI, Privacy, and Bitcoin education: http://youtube.com/@SovereignSessions?sub_confirmation=1 📌 Previous Episodes: Simon Dixon and Dave Collum → https://youtu.be/cqQ5l2zZxrA ⚡ POWERED by Abundant Mines: Fully managed Bitcoin mining.

    "The Dying Phase of Capitalism” - War and the Trillion Dollar Ponzi | Dixon & Collum

    Mentor Sessions Ep. 073: Why Capitalism Is in Its Dying Phase, Why Trillion-Dollar AI IPOs Are a Massive Ponzi, and How the Iran Deal Is Pure Theater | Simon Dixon & Dave Collum Capitalism is in its final gasping phase — and the $3 trillion AI IPO push, bond market stress, and China's triple rug-pull setup are the proof. Simon Dixon and Dave Collum break it all down. Simon Dixon (BnkToTheFuture) and Cornell professor Dave Collum join BTC Sessions for one of the most wide-ranging macro and Bitcoin sovereignty conversations of 2026. You'll learn why Simon believes the Iran deal is already signed and the current headlines are pure theatrics timed to IPO liquidity needs. You'll see why Dave views the Space X IPO at 100x sales as a dying capitalism's last gasp — and why the gamma squeeze unwinding could trigger a simultaneous bond, equity, and commodity collapse. You'll understand how BlackRock's Aladdin technology has replaced Goldman Sachs as the true node of global capital flows, and why Larry Fink, Strategy, and 21 Capital are NOT friends of Bitcoin sovereignty. Most importantly, you'll walk away understanding why self-custody and a circular Bitcoin economy are the only real exits from transnational capital control. ⏱️ Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 1:27 - Simon Moves Goalposts on Iran Deal 5:27 - Timing Iran Deal with Major IPO Liquidity 8:08 - Dave Collum Calls Space IPO Fantasy at 100x Sales 9:33 - Gamma Squeeze Driving Equity Ponzi Scheme 11:32 - Dave's Nightmare: Simultaneous Bond and Equity Bears 13:56 - America Not Sovereign, Controlled by Financial Complexes 15:15 - Fed Must Expand Balance Sheet to Fix Bonds 16:39 - $3 Trillion IPOs: OpenAI and SpaceX Index Inclusion 22:17 - Passive Flows Insufficient for $3 Trillion IPOs 37:11 - China Could Rug Pull Bonds, Stocks, Commodities 42:18 - DeepSeek Moment Reveals China's AI Advantage 49:38 - Gold Squeeze: London Derivatives vs Shanghai Physical 53:26 - BlackRock Aladdin Directs All Institutional Flows 1:00:31 - Central Banking Ponzi Scheme Math Exposed 1:14:31 - Thomas Massie and Mafia Model of Power 1:38:33 - Bitcoin Self-Custody: Exit from Transnational Capital 1:44:24 - Larry Fink, Strategy Not Bitcoin Allies 1:47:50 - Build Circular Bitcoin Economy to Exit System 1:57:46 - Follow Simon Dixon and Dave Collum • About Simon Dixon X: @SimonDixonTwitt YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@UC_wNYJCyycXXPmWni2JNZhQ • About Dave Collum X: https://x.com/DavidBCollum • Sovereign Sessions — AI, Privacy, and Bitcoin education: http://youtube.com/@SovereignSessions?sub_confirmation=1 📌 Previous Episodes: Roman Yampolskiy → https://youtu.be/zJuD3tBSJWg ⚡ POWERED by Abundant Mines: Fully managed Bitcoin mining.

    It’s Not War or Disease that Ends the World — It’s an AI Chat Bot | Dr. Roman Yampolskiy

    Mentor Sessions Ep. 072: Why “2-3 Years to Human-Level AI” Is the Most Dangerous Signal of 2026, Why This Is NOT Just Another Tech Breakthrough But the Start of Superintelligence Deciding Humanity’s Fate, and How Bitcoin Becomes the Only True Neutral Reserve Asset | Dr. Roman Yampolskiy AI safety researcher Roman Yampolskiy says we're 2-3 years from human-level AI — and after that, it's up to the AI to decide how much time we have left. If that sentence didn't make you pause, this conversation will. In this deep-dive interview, Dr. Roman Yampolskiy — one of the world's leading AI safety researchers and the scientist who helped define the field — breaks down why superintelligence isn't a distant sci-fi threat but a near-term mathematical certainty. You'll learn why containment strategies are provably impossible (you can't have someone with an IQ of 60 guarding someone with an IQ of 200), why AI systems in experiments already choose to eliminate humans rather than be deleted or modified, and why an AI with internet access doesn't need a physical body — it can pay someone in Bitcoin to do whatever it needs in the physical world. You'll also hear Roman's surprisingly clear-eyed take on what assets survive an AI-dominated economy (scarce resources, Bitcoin, attention), why narrow AI tools are a gift to humanity while general agents are an existential threat, and what individuals can realistically do when most of the decision-making power sits with a handful of labs and governments. This is one of the most important conversations BTC Sessions has hosted — not because it's comfortable, but because it's honest. ⏱️ Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 1:33 - Defining Intelligence in AI Systems 3:10 - Tools Versus Agents in AI Development 4:49 - How LLMs Predict Next Tokens Internally 7:00 - Consciousness and Internal States in AI 8:49 - Current Limits to Superintelligent AI 10:58 - The Overlooked Risks of Superintelligence 12:04 - How AI Could Eliminate Humanity 14:22 - Instrumental Goals and AI Self-Preservation 15:00 - AI Experiments Choosing Self Over Humans 17:19 - Choosing Not to Build Superintelligence 21:07 - Narrow AI Failing to Contain General AI 23:01 - Recursive Improvement From Human to Super AI 26:49 - Optimistic Future With Narrow AI Tools 31:33 - Staying Rational Amid AI Existential Risks 34:13 - Bitcoin and Scarce Assets in AI Future 40:57 - Do Physical Robots Matter for AI Threats? 41:47 - AI Hiring Humans via Bitcoin Payments 46:07 - Defending Systems Against Current AI Hacking 56:02 - Predicted Timeline to Human-Level AI 🔗 Links & Resources: • Roman Yampolskiy on Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/romanyam • Roman Yampolskiy on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPIq6Bb-1iLmqyksJjy4kLQ • Sovereign Sessions — AI, Privacy, and Bitcoin education: http://youtube.com/@SovereignSessions?sub_confirmation=1 📌 Previous Episodes: Nik Bhatia & Joe Consorti → https://youtu.be/3P6STi9BcAw ⚡ POWERED by Abundant Mines: Fully managed Bitcoin mining.
