🎙 Bitcoin Fortress Podcast — Episode 220 Date: June 14, 2026 Block Height: 953666 Moscow Time: 1564 Fees: 1 / 1 /1 In this episode: In Episode 220 of The Bitcoin Fortress Podcast, we examine the most important Bitcoin developments from June 7–14, 2026. We discuss the return of ETF inflows, the growing dominance of BlackRock and Fidelity in the Bitcoin ETF market, Strategy’s latest Bitcoin purchase and the evolving treasury-company landscape, mining profitability and the recent difficulty adjustment, stablecoin regulation under the GENIUS Act, the ongoing CLARITY Act debate, and the broader implications of AI, surveillance, and digital freedom. We also explore the major themes emerging from the Bitcoin podcast universe, including inflation, private-company Bitcoin treasuries, operational security, and post-quantum Bitcoin research. Finally, we feature A Bitcoin Way of Life – Week 4, reflect on Bitcoin as a discipline rather than merely an investment, and close with a reminder that while the fiat world grows increasingly complex, Bitcoin continues to do exactly what it was designed to do—produce blocks and provide a foundation for financial sovereignty.
