No banks. No middlemen. 👉 https://app.bullbitcoin.com/registration/bitcornerpodcast 🎯 EPISODE THESIS What if Bitcoin isn't growing exponentially — and that's exactly why it lasts? The global monetary base is about 26.2 trillion dollars. Bitcoin is about 1.2 trillion. That means Bitcoin is still less than 5% of the world's base money. In this episode of BitCorner Podcast, Matthew "Matty" Mezinskis (@1basemoney) — macroeconomic researcher, host of Crypto Voices, and one of the leading voices on the Bitcoin power law and global money supply data — joins us from Latvia to explain what money really is, how Bitcoin compares to the global monetary base, and why its price follows a power law instead of an exponential curve. Matty walks us through his charts live: what a log-log chart shows, why the power law is "something you can't unsee," where we are in the cycle right now, and why he thinks Bitcoin grows like a city, not a nation state. We also discuss: • Why study money, and what the 2008 financial crisis taught a generation • What money is — and why your credit card isn't money at all • Base money vs. M1, M2 and M3 • Bitcoin vs. the global monetary base, and how it compares to gold • Why central banks hold a monopoly on money — and why that might not be forever • Governments, El Salvador and Bitcoin • How to read the Bitcoin power law chart (log-linear vs. log-log) • Power law vs. stock-to-flow • Where we are now in the Bitcoin cycle • Cities, nation states and power laws • The strongest argument against the power law • Why exponential trends are dangerous • Geopolitics and money, from the Baltics to Ukraine This is not a price prediction episode. It is a conversation about how money actually works — and why a scarce, predictable asset that grows on a power curve could be the most important monetary experiment of our time. Bitcoin is still under 5% of the world's base money. How big can it get — and how fast? ⏱️ CHAPTERS 00:00 Cold open: Bitcoin's returns in 20 years 02:14 Welcome, Matthew Mezinskis 03:35 Why study money? 06:56 What is money? 11:24 How the power law started 14:09 Bitcoin vs the global monetary base 20:25 Governments, El Salvador and Bitcoin 25:11 Sponsors 27:29 How to read the power law chart 33:29 Power law vs stock-to-flow 40:29 Why Bitcoin's growth rate declines 45:43 Where are we now in the cycle? 48:52 Cities, nation states and power laws 53:22 The strongest argument against the power law 1:01:23 Geopolitics and money 1:11:05 Where to find Matty 📊 MATTY'S WORK Matthew Mezinskis researches base money and the Bitcoin power law, and hosts the Crypto Voices podcast.

    ¿Por qué Venezuela necesita Bitcoin? Soberanía, Autocustodia y El Salvador | Carolina LaPetiteADA

    🎧 ESCUCHA EN FOUNTAIN Y GANA SATS ⚡ Este episodio también está disponible en Fountain. 👉 https://tinyurl.com/yck8u6sa 🇸🇻 APOYA BITCORNER 🎧⚡ 🟦 Blockstream Jade — Hardware wallet para Bitcoin y autocustodia. 🔐 Usa el código BITCORNERPODCAST para obtener descuento: 👉 https://rewards.blockstream.com/bitcornerpodcast 🐂 Bull Bitcoin — Compra Bitcoin directamente a tu autocustodia. 👉 https://app.bullbitcoin.com/registration/bitcornerpodcast 🎯 SOBRE ESTE EPISODIO ¿Qué pasa cuando alguien que nació en Venezuela —un país marcado por inflación, devaluación y restricciones financieras— termina viviendo en Suiza, uno de los centros financieros más importantes del mundo? Carolina, conocida en internet como @LaPetiteADA, nos cuenta su camino desde Venezuela hasta convertirse en una de las voces más visibles de Bitcoin en Europa. Hablamos de cómo llegó a Bitcoin durante la pandemia, por qué pasó del interés inicial por el precio y la especulación a entender los principios detrás de Bitcoin, y qué significa realmente la soberanía financiera para alguien que ha vivido las consecuencias de un sistema monetario inestable. Carolina compró Bitcoin por primera vez en 2019 y comenzó a crear contenido en 2022. Desde entonces, ha utilizado sus plataformas para educar, hablar de autocustodia y acercar Bitcoin a nuevas audiencias. Pero también hablamos de algo mucho más concreto: Su familia llegó a vender una propiedad en Venezuela utilizando Bitcoin. Una historia que convierte toda la conversación sobre adopción en algo mucho más real: ¿qué ocurre cuando Bitcoin deja de ser una teoría y se convierte en una herramienta para proteger y mover el patrimonio de una familia? También comparamos dos mundos muy diferentes: 🇻🇪 Venezuela y Latinoamérica, donde Bitcoin puede representar una forma de proteger los ahorros frente a monedas debilitadas. 🇨🇭 Suiza, donde Bitcoin convive con uno de los sistemas financieros más desarrollados del mundo y donde la adopción tiene motivaciones muy diferentes. Y, por supuesto, hablamos de El Salvador. Desde la perspectiva de una venezolana que vive en Europa, ¿qué significa ver a un país latinoamericano apostar por Bitcoin? ¿Por qué Latinoamérica puede tener una relación tan distinta con Bitcoin que Europa? ¿Estamos viendo dos caminos diferentes hacia la misma tecnología? 🧠 EN ESTE EPISODIO HABLAMOS DE: • El camino de Carolina desde Venezuela hasta Bitcoin • Cómo llegó a Bitcoin durante la pandemia • Por qué compró Bitcoin por primera vez en 2019 • De la especulación a entender los principios de Bitcoin • Inflación, devaluación y soberanía financiera • La relación entre Bitcoin y Latinoamérica • Venezuela y la pérdida del poder adquisitivo • El caso real de una propiedad vendida por Bitcoin • Autocustodia y libertad financiera • Bitcoin en Venezuela vs. Bitcoin en Suiza • La adopción de Bitcoin en Europa • Bitcoin Prague y la comunidad europea • El papel de las mujeres en Bitcoin • Educación y creación de contenido • El Salvador visto desde la perspectiva de una venezolana • Bitcoin como herramienta de ahorro • La diferencia entre adoptar Bitcoin por necesidad y adoptarlo por convicción • La importancia de la descentralización • Cómo explicar Bitcoin a personas que todavía no lo entienden • Comunidad, redes sociales y Bitcoin • Y mucho más. 🇻🇪 LATAM → 🇨🇭 EUROPA → 🇸🇻 EL SALVADOR Una conversación sobre cómo la relación que tenemos con el dinero cambia completamente dependiendo de dónde nacemos. En Venezuela, la experiencia monetaria puede hacer que Bitcoin se perciba como una herramienta para proteger los ahorros. En Suiza, el contexto es completamente diferente: Bitcoin convive con un sistema financiero desarrollado y una cultura bancaria profundamente arraigada. Carolina ha vivido ambos mundos. Y eso hace que su perspectiva sea especialmente interesante. 🎵 BITCOIN Y MÚSICA Antes de cerrar, también hablamos de una parte diferente de Carolina: la música. Desde pequeña le ha gustado cantar y ha explorado cómo utilizar la música como una forma de comunicar ideas relacionadas con Bitcoin y acercar estos conceptos a nuevas audiencias. 👤 SOBRE CAROLINA Carolina “La Petite Hada” es una creadora de contenido y defensora de Bitcoin nacida en Venezuela y residente en Suiza. Su contenido gira alrededor de Bitcoin, autocustodia, soberanía financiera, adopción y educación. Ha participado activamente en la comunidad Bitcoin europea y ha asistido a eventos como Bitcoin Prague y Bitcoin Vegas. ⏱️ CAPÍTULOS 1:56 Bienvenida y trayectoria 3:56 Orígenes en bitcoin 6:08 Por qué el sistema financiero es injusto 15:18 El caso de uso real de Bitcoin en Venezuela 17:06 Comparativa entre Latinoamérica y Suiza 24:54 Experiencias en conferencias de Bitcoin 30:27 Pregunta de la audiencia y situación en Venezuela 41:36 Música e independencia digital 🔗 CONECTA CON CAROLINA 🐦 X: @LaPetiteADA 🎙️ BITCORNER BitCorner es el primer podcast Bitcoin-only de El Salvador.

    Bitcoin Solved Digital Scarcity. But It Has a Privacy Problem w/ Max Hillebrand

No banks. No middlemen. 👉 https://app.bullbitcoin.com/registration/bitcornerpodcast 🎯 EPISODE THESIS What does privacy have to do with economics? And what happens when you combine Austrian economics, cypherpunk technology, and Bitcoin? In this episode of BitCorner Podcast, Max Hillebrand — Austrian economist, cypherpunk, privacy engineer, and author of The Praxeology of Privacy — joins us for a deep conversation about human action, privacy, money, and freedom. We explore why privacy isn't simply about “having something to hide,” but a fundamental part of being able to act freely. Max explains how surveillance can distort economic behavior, why Bitcoin’s digital scarcity matters, the risks surrounding manipulation and censorship, and the difficult engineering trade-offs involved in developing an open monetary network. We also discuss: • Austrian economics and the lessons of El Salvador’s Bitcoin experiment • Why privacy follows naturally from praxeology and human action • How surveillance can distort prices, incentives, and economic decisions • Bitcoin as digital base money • The difference between Bitcoin and money substitutes built on top of it • Whether Bitcoin can be manipulated despite its decentralized architecture • Censorship, spam, block space, and Bitcoin development • The trade-offs involved in changing Bitcoin’s rules • The future of Satoshi’s coins • Bitcoin scaling and the challenges ahead • Cypherpunk technology and the broader freedom stack • Why economics and privacy technology need to be understood together • The philosophical foundations behind The Praxeology of Privacy This is not simply a conversation about Bitcoin privacy. It is a conversation about human freedom — and whether individuals can continue to control their money, information, and choices in a world where observation and financial control are becoming increasingly powerful. Bitcoin solved something extraordinary: digital scarcity without a trusted third party. But what does that mean for privacy, sovereignty, and human action? ⏱️ CHAPTERS 0:00 Bitcoin as an engineered system 0:59 Austrian economics and the Salvadoran experiment 10:12 Privacy as a necessity through praxeology 24:06 Manipulation risks and base money nature 30:27 Censorship, spam and Bitcoin development 38:28 The future of Satoshi's coins and Bitcoin scaling 50:18 Reflections on El Salvador and closing thoughts 📖 MAX'S BOOK The Praxeology of Privacy by Max Hillebrand. The book connects Austrian economics, human action, privacy, and the technology developed by the cypherpunk movement. 👤 CONNECT 🎙️ Max Hillebrand Austrian economist, cypherpunk & privacy engineer.

You stop being a fanatic. You become a realist. Then a pilgrim. That's the journey of Paco de la India — Indian traveler, Bitcoin nomad, and author of the upcoming book Proof of Work. In this episode of BitCorner Podcast, Paco shares what no conference talk or Twitter thread can: what Bitcoin actually looks like on the ground, from the Congo-South Sudan border to a Bitcoin circular economy in a South African township. From human rights activists in Ghana using Bitcoin to rescue refugees from pirates, to P2P traders in Kenya, to cypherpunks in Prague — Paco has seen every use case. And his verdict? Bitcoin is a tool. A human tool. And the humans using it are kind.
