    Read_859 - Ecash on Bitcoin

    "Ecash got reintroduced with the two open source projects Fedimint and Cashu. In my opinion, the main reason for this revival is the following fact: Unlike an implementation of ecash in the fiat world, that would rely on the permissioned system to "allow" something like ecash to exist, bitcoin does not come with that limitation. The permissionless nature of bitcoin allows for these protocols to exist and interoperate with the existing bitcoin stack." -Gandlaf21 Can Ecash, a privacy preserving but centralized and custodial system, coexist with the decentralized and permissionless nature of Bitcoin? Does it pose a threat to self-custody, or can it provide a more private and user-friendly experience for those who struggle with the complexities of holding their own coins? Explore the potential benefits and drawbacks of Ecash and its implications for the future of financial services.

    Chat_121 - Surviving Bitcoin Adoption with Jack Spirko

    "The payment network has no value if your asset is not desirable. Like this is not, you cannot have this, like I'm just gonna build all of this stuff on top of it. And if none of the assurances of the underlying, those things don't matter because its value is in the quote unquote utility of payments. Money is its own utility. Money is its own utility because where on earth do you hold value in something that can hold enormous amounts of value that has no counterparty risk, that has nobody in charge, that has nobody that can rug pull you. You do not understand that is a $100 trillion problem. That is the biggest problem on earth." ~ Guy Swann   In this episode, I sit down with Jack Spirko, host of The Survival Podcast, to dive deep into the world of Bitcoin, the future of stablecoins, and the evolving landscape of digital currency. How do you separate speculation from real-world value in an ever-changing market? Is Bitcoin destined to become a purely digital store of value, or is there more to its role in everyday life? We explore the limitations of altcoins and whether the rise of stablecoins might reshape the way we think about money itself. And what does it mean for personal sovereignty when the financial system is transitioning to something entirely digital? Jack shares his insights, challenges some of the prevailing narratives, and offers thought-provoking perspectives on the intersection of Bitcoin, survival, and true independence.

    Chat_120 - How P2P is changing the Internet [Pears]

    "There are so many reasons to be interested in peer-to-peer. You can be interested in it for resilience, because there are no middlemen, so it's going to work if any of your devices are online. You can also just be interested in it from this angle, the idea that if you have full control of your data, and the code that you're using, that you're running on that data, then anybody can fork it, modify it, tweak it, and create a whole... That's where the Cambrian explosion comes in, this whole proliferation of apps that give users very different experiences."~ Andrew OsheroffIn this conversation, I had the privilege of joining Mathias Buus, David Clements, and Andrew Osheroff from Pears.com, Keet, and Holepunch for an engaging fireside chat about the transformative power of peer-to-peer technology. Together, we explored how P2P is reshaping the internet, enabling greater freedom, and redefining how we communicate and collaborate in a decentralized world. This conversation delved into the intersection of technology and liberty, highlighting the potential of P2P to challenge centralized systems and empower individuals. Whether you’re passionate about Bitcoin, decentralization, or the future of digital freedom, this was an inspiring and valuable discussion that I’m excited to share again.

    Take_095 - When Should I Sell Bitcoin?

    "Ossification is complacency. Yes, we all agree that Bitcoin is great. But _I do not agree_ that Bitcoin has reached its full potential. I think complacency is one of the greatest threats to Bitcoin - we must not rest upon our laurels." — Lopp Bitcoin crosses a hundred thousand dollars. Your Bitcoin investment has exploded. You're looking at it and all you can see is how much it's worth in dollars. And so you send your buddy guy a message and you say, "When should I sell my Bitcoin?" And from the average person's perspective, I think what is the logical answer to that question is really difficult to understand. Because it requires a shift in the frame of what you think is worth measuring against. The answer could not be simpler. You don't. You never sell a good money to get more of a bad money. But since that requires explicitly an explanation and a shift in framing, I think it's Time for a guy's take episode.   Links to check out  The Give-A-Shit Matrix (Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHdRT9t1V2E) Bitcoin: Everything divided by 21 million by Knut Svanholm (Link: https://tinyurl.com/4srcttrj) Shelling Out: The Origins of Money by Nick Szabo (Link: https://tinyurl.com/5yv4c3cc) Host Links ⁠Guy on Nostr ⁠(Link: http://tinyurl.com/2xc96ney) ⁠Guy on X ⁠(Link: https://twitter.com/theguyswann) Guy on Instagram (Link: https://www.instagram.com/theguyswann) Guy on TikTok (Link: https://www.tiktok.com/@theguyswann) Guy on YouTube (Link: https://www.youtube.com/@theguyswann) ⁠Bitcoin Audible on X⁠ (Link: https://twitter.com/BitcoinAudible) The Guy Swann Network Broadcast Room on Keet (Link: https://tinyurl.com/3na6v839) Check out our awesome sponsors!

    "Ossification is complacency. Yes, we all agree that Bitcoin is great. But _I do not agree_ that Bitcoin has reached its full potential. I think complacency is one of the greatest threats to Bitcoin - we must not rest upon our laurels." — Lopp How should we frame the debate between ossification vs continuous development and planning for future soft forks of the Bitcoin protocol? Is there a clear and obvious path that can be argued for, or is there something else at play that limits both sides of the debate, possibly presenting a false dichotomy that can be overcome? We dive into a great article laying out the perspective of bitcoin OG, Jameson Lopp, followed by a short take by Aaron Von Wirdum before Guy's take to pull it all together. To change Bitcoin, or to not change Bitcoin? Is that really the question?

    Chat_119 - Why Nostr Will Win with Miljan

    "On nostr we have maybe a couple hundred thousand users who are active, but all all those users are holding their keys. We're actually bootstrapping this censorship resistant network. There isn't anything like that out there. Nostr is the only game in town when it comes to truly sovereign presence on the web."- Miljan What does it take to create a user-friendly Bitcoin and Nostr experience that balances accessibility with the principles of sovereignty? In this episode, I sit down with Miljan to explore how Primal is pushing the boundaries of social media and micropayments. We dive into the challenges of custodial versus non-custodial wallets, how the zapping economy is transforming online interactions, and why mobile apps might hold the key to mass adoption. Miljan shares the thinking behind integrating Bitcoin into everyday apps, solving spam with Nostr's web of trust, and designing a product that feels as polished as legacy platforms while staying true to decentralized values. Could this be the path to onboarding millions to Bitcoin without them even realizing it? Tune in for a fascinating look at how the game theory of Bitcoin is playing out in the wild.

    Read_857 - Instant Settlement: The Construction Industry

    "Imagine a sports game where different players are motivated by distinct incentives, defenders aiming to pull the ball outside the field, midfielders prioritizing maximum passes, attackers focused on scoring the most goals, goalkeepers rewarded for saving the most shots, and coaches for the most words shouted from the bench. You can imagine that will not be an optimal team performance when they step on the field, the team winning should be prioritized over any individual player's performance." — Ivan Makedonski Can Bitcoin and the Lightning Network provide a new foundation for aligning incentives and creating a more efficient and harmonious approach to construction and other industries?
