ℹ️ EPISODE SUMMARY
Bram Kanstein and Mauricio Di Bartolomeo discuss why Bitcoin is pristine collateral in a 24/7 market. They break how Bitcoin-backed loans beat real estate on liquidity, divisibility, and global underwriting. Mauricio confronts the mortgage illusion, it is a loan on your income, quietly subsidized by fiat debasement and taxes. They unpack why banks struggle with always-on risk engines, and why regulation is actually pulling Bitcoin finance into the open. It ends on conviction, sovereignty, and why loving the work is the real edge.

ℹ️ EPISODE SUMMARY
The fiat system has reached its breaking point. Marty Bent returns to the show to explain why we are now in "Phase Two" of a three-phase transition to a Bitcoin standard. We discuss why the $37 trillion debt clock is making traditional "safe" assets a liability and why nation-states are quietly using gold as a bridge to Bitcoin. Marty reveals the truth about the "humiliation ritual" of the US tax system and how the emergence of a "sci-fi banking stack" is allowing individuals to opt-out of traditional banking fraud. If you want to understand why the old four-year cycle is dead and what comes next, this is the episode for you

ℹ️ EPISODE SUMMARY
Bram Kanstein and Vijay Boyapati, author of "The Bullish Case for Bitcoin," analyze the state of Bitcoin in 2026. We explore the four stages of monetization, why nation-state adoption is no longer a fringe theory, and why the path to becoming a global reserve currency is now a mathematical certainty. From the institutional surge to the "End Game" where fiat ceases to be an exit, this episode is a roadmap for the final stages of Bitcoin’s evolution. If you think $1 million is high, you're still thinking in the old system.

ℹ️ EPISODE SUMMARY
The $90 Trillion Great Wealth Transfer is here, but there's a catch: the system holding that wealth is cracking. Financial expert Peter Dunworth joins me to explain why traditional stocks, bonds, and real estate are becoming "dying assets" and why your inheritance is being vaporized in real-time. We break down the "2026 Warning," the collapse of traditional collateral, and why Bitcoin is the only asset capable of securing a multi-generational legacy. If you are banking on a traditional retirement or inheritance, this is the reality check you need before mid-2026
