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

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.

This week, Coinkite disclosed that certain Coldcard devices generated recovery phrases with weakened randomness — and updating the firmware doesn't fix a seed that's already out there. Coinkite's founder NVK called it "heartbroken" territory in a public apology, and committed to full transparency on how it happened. In this episode, I break down exactly what went wrong in the code, why it slipped past review for years, and — most importantly — the exact steps to check if you're affected and migrate your funds safely. This is the episode you send to anyone you know holding a Coldcard, especially if they're not glued to crypto Twitter.

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.

Today, they just print the money. Same crime. Different tool. That's the thesis of Neil Flesher — philosopher, U.S. Army veteran, and author of Monetary Slavery. In this episode of BitCorner Podcast, Neil makes the most powerful case for Bitcoin you've probably never heard: not the economic case, not the price case — the moral case. Fiat money isn't broken. It's evil. And Bitcoin isn't just a better investment — it's the first tool in history that lets you opt out of a system designed to extract everything you've ever earned.

In this episode of BitCorner Podcast, we sit down with Nikki, Gen Z Bitcoin & AI educator and host of her own podcast, to talk about what it's actually like to grow up right now: rent going up three times in a year, AI eating the job market, a broken monetary system no one taught you about in school — and then discovering Bitcoin. We go deep on why Gen Z might be the most important generation for Bitcoin adoption, how AI is reshaping content creation and careers, low time preference as a life philosophy, and the one hypothetical that will keep you thinking for days: if Satoshi walked up to you in a coffee shop and handed you their private keys — what would you do? ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 0:00 Cold Open — "Money Is the Problem" 1:45 Welcome & Intro: Three Generations of Bitcoiners in One Season 3:10 Introducing Nikki — Gen Z Podcaster, Bitcoin & AI Educator 4:30 Growing Up in a Bitcoin Family — How It Actually Happened 7:00 Moving to Australia, Rising Rent & the Moment Money Became Real 10:00 What Is Money? — Watching "What's the Problem?" by Joe Bryan 13:00 Reading The Bitcoin Standard & Broken Money — Then Starting a Podcast 16:00 100 Episodes in 7 Months: The Release Schedule That Worked 19:30 What Gen Z Actually Faces: AI, Job Market & The Broken Path 24:00 Why Universities Still Only Teach Keynesian Economics 27:00 Bitcoin Education for El Salvador vs. Gen Z Content — The Same Mission 30:00 How to Get Anyone Curious About Bitcoin: Start With "What Is Money to You?" 34:00 The Psychology of Money — The Book That Started It All at 16 37:00 Bitcoin & AI: Why Nikki Covers Both Together 41:00 AI in 2023 vs. AI Now — From Useless Chatbot to Full Workflow Automation 46:00 Using AI to Run a Podcast: Outreach, Scheduling, Research, Editing 50:00 Bitcoin Is Scarcity in a World of AI Abundance 53:00 Question from Bram (Bitcoin for Millennials): What's Your Foundational Motivation? 57:00 "I Needed Something to Believe In" — Bitcoin as Hope for Gen Z 62:00 The Immaculate Conception of Bitcoin — Why No One Can Copy It 65:00 What Had to Change: Low Time Preference, Shopping Addiction & Social Media 69:00 Question from Gio (WallAxe): Will Bitcoin Succeed for Future Generations? 73:00 Bitcoin as Generational Wealth — $10/Day and 1,000 Years Down the Line 77:00 The Hypothetical: Satoshi Walks Into a Coffee Shop and Gives You the Keys 82:00 What Bitcoin Has Given Nikki Beyond Money: Faith & Accountability 84:00 Wrap-Up & Final Thoughts ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔗 CONNECT WITH NIKKI ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 👉 X: https://x.com/orangepeelpodYT: https://www.youtube.com/@OrangePeelPod ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📲 SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎧 Fountain: https://tinyurl.com/yck8u6sa🎵 Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/bdcsyy4u🍎 Apple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/cj5wkhxv🎬 Rumble: https://tinyurl.com/3bc6bvtn📺 YouTube: /@bitcornerpodcast ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 👤 CONNECT ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🌐 Juan / BitCorner Website: https://bitcornershow.framer.ai/📸 Instagram: @bitcorner_official 🐦 Twitter/X: https://x.com/TheJuanSC📧 Email: bitcornerpodcast@proton.me ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Bitcoin #GenZ #BitcoinPodcast #BitCorner #ArtificialIntelligence #BitcoinEducation #LowTimePreference #FixTheMoney #BitcoinStandard #SoundMoney #HardMoney #AustrianEconomics #BitcoinAdoption #AIandBitcoin #21Million ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

In this episode of BitCorner Podcast, Bob Burnett — engineer, energy entrepreneur, and Bitcoin miner — breaks down the reality behind mining, energy, and why Bitcoin is reshaping the physical world. We go far beyond the usual narratives: • Mining doesn’t “produce Bitcoin” — it produces blockspace • The hidden economics of transaction fees and future security • How Bitcoin turns wasted energy into economic value • Why mining is key to national sovereignty • The truth about energy FUD and grid stability • Why Bitcoin may be a once-in-history phenomenon This is not a technical discussion. It’s a conversation about how Bitcoin connects energy, economics, and freedom — and why it may be the only viable path to a more stable future.

In this episode of BitCorner Podcast, Alex Stanczyk, a former gold fund manager turned Bitcoin advocate, breaks down the monetary transition unfolding in real time. We go beyond surface-level inflation talk and into structural shifts: • The legacy of Bretton Woods • The truth about Fort Knox • Why gold never fixed the system • And why Bitcoin represents something categorically different This is not a “gold vs Bitcoin” debate. It’s a conversation about broken monetary architecture, institutional fragility, and why capital is migrating toward harder assets in an era of accelerating debasement.

    Netflix vs Hollywood (Part 2): The Deal That Exposes a Broken Industry [Subtitulos ESP/ENG]

No banks. No middlemen. 👉 https://app.bullbitcoin.com/registration/bitcornerpodcast 🎯 Episode Thesis (Part II) Hollywood isn’t just consolidating. It’s entering a phase of systemic decay. In Part II of our 100th episode, we go beyond the Netflix–Warner deal and examine the deeper structural consequences: how monopolized distribution reshapes storytelling, how financial engineering replaces creative risk, and why studios are trapped inside their own incentive models. In this episode of BitCorner Podcast, Zack Mahoney (IndieHub) breaks down what happens after consolidation becomes the norm: shrinking opportunity for filmmakers, algorithm-driven greenlights, theaters losing leverage, and audiences being fed optimized content instead of cultural moments. This is a conversation about second-order effects: what monopoly does to art, to creators, and to culture itself. And more importantly, what emerges in response. We explore how parallel creative infrastructures are forming: where funding, distribution, and sovereignty no longer depend on gatekeepers. Part II isn’t about diagnosing the bleed. It’s about what replaces a collapsing system. 2:12 - IndieHub: A solution using Bitcoin 3:41 - Why Bitcoin? Permissionless transactions 10:32 - The IndieHub vision: Connecting audience and filmmaker 11:06 - Streaming money like data: Per-second payments 20:11 - Netflix: Giving away your baby 21:39 - Art versus propaganda 26:38 - How IndieHub and Bitcoin reshape storytelling 33:45 - Decentralized creative economy benefits 35:56 - How to measure success: Iterating faster 39:14 - Never, never, never quit 📲 SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST 🎧 Fountain: https://tinyurl.com/yck8u6sa 🎵 Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/bdcsyy4u 🍎 Apple Podcast: https://tinyurl.com/cj5wkhxv 🎬 Rumble: https://tinyurl.com/3bc6bvtn 📺 YouTube: /@bitcornerpodcast 👤 CONNECT 🎙️ Zack Mahoney: https://indeehub.studio/🎬 Bitcoin Film Fest: https://bitcoinfilmfest.com/ 🌐 Juan / BitCorner Website: https://bitcornershow.framer.ai/ 📸 Instagram: @bitcorner_official 🐦 Twitter/X: https://x.com/TheJuanSC 📧 Email: bitcornerpodcast@proton.me

It’s collapsing because capital, distribution, and creative power have been centralized into too few hands. In this episode of BitCorner Podcast, we sit down with Zack Mahoney, founder of IndieHub, to break down what the Netflix–Warner Bros. mega-deal really signals: the end of competitive filmmaking, the erosion of theaters, and an industry optimized for algorithms—not art. This is a conversation about media monopolies, broken incentive systems, and why independent creators are being squeezed out—and how Bitcoin introduces a radically different model for funding, distribution, and creative sovereignty.

Hablamos de por qué nunca antes en la historia existió una forma de propiedad realmente absoluta y cómo el dinero fiat, ligado al Estado y a la banca, convierte nuestro trabajo en una forma de servidumbre moderna.Esto no va de precio.Va de entender qué es realmente la propiedad, el dinero y la libertad en la era de Bitcoin.🎙 SOBRE EL EPISODIO¿Qué significa que Bitcoin marque un “antes y un después” en la historia humana?Adrián nos guía por:- El concepto de riqueza inconfiscable y por qué la “propiedad privada” tradicional es, en realidad, un usufructo dependiente de terceros.- Cómo el dinero fiat, la inflación y el señoreaje funcionan como una extracción silenciosa de tiempo y esfuerzo del trabajador asalariado.- La idea de bitcoinismo como nueva era histórica: un hito tecnológico, monetario y filosófico.- La escuela austriaca de economía y sus raíces en la Escuela de Salamanca, Juan de Mariana y la crítica temprana a la manipulación de la moneda.- Por qué Bitcoin es la primera propiedad absoluta: custodia soberana, claves privadas, nuda propiedad y diferencia entre “tener” y “usar” un activo.- Bitcoin y la energía naranja: proof of work, dinero energético y cómo la minería permite capturar energía desperdiciada en el mundo físico.Si quieres entender Bitcoin más allá del meme y del “number go up”, este episodio es una exploración profunda de dinero, poder, propiedad y libertad.⏱️ TIMESTAMPS00:00 – Intro: Europa 1984, regulaciones y por qué Bitcoin es lo contrario al control01:50 – Bienvenida a 2026 y contexto del episodio 10103:00 – Presentación de Adrián Bernabeu, Bitcoinismo e Inconfiscable03:45 – ¿Qué es la riqueza inconfiscable?07:00 – Propiedad privada vs usufructo: bancos, inmobiliario y terceros de confianza11:30 – Bitcoin como primera forma de propiedad absoluta en la historia15:00 – Dinero fiat, inflación y servidumbre moderna del trabajador asalariado20:00 – Escuela Austriaca, Escuela de Salamanca y Juan de Mariana27:30 – Cómo el Estado roba mediante señoreaje e inflación32:00 – Bitcoin como antídoto a un dinero “enfermo”38:00 – ¿Por qué Bitcoin está respaldado por energía?
