Roberto argues Japan is the monetary experiment lab for the West: thirty years of QE, QQE, and yield curve control that never created growth, with yield curve control next for the United States if a bond market crisis hits. He calls the BIS the head of the Medusa and makes the finale case that Bitcoin solves the Triffin dilemma, because a reserve asset with no host country cannot break one, unlocking $20 to $40 trillion in daily trade liquidity and forced nation-state adoption. Terence Michael opens the show as Bitcoin's hash rate returns to one zettahash, one sextillion computations per second. Loren and Terence host Bitcoin Today live on X, weekdays at 8:30 AM PT.

The builder of EntropyLab, a single-file offline Bitcoin key and wallet calculator, argues your seed words are only as trustworthy as the entropy that created them, and that after the Coldcard failure no hardware wallet should generate your 24 words in secret.

Charles Schwab is moving toward a Bitcoin ETF, and the Bitcoin Today room digs into what it means for holders, advisors and the price. Loren and Terence host today's live Bitcoin Today Space with the community, including Aztec, Natalie, Michael, Omar and more. Today on Bitcoin Today, the conversation opens with the community catching up and what the room is watching on a big conference day. Then the Tesla Roadster and Cybertruck debate takes over, with the panel split on whether the launch hype is real. Along the way: Elon, politics and why polarization keeps people arguing. Then we turn to Bitcoin. The big news is Schwab and its RIA platform. The panel talks about Bitcoin ETFs, whether ETF selling pressure matters, how Bitcoin differs from an S&P 500 ETF because there can only ever be 21 million, and why more ETF adoption makes self-custody and multi-sig conversations more important, not less. We close out with spend and replace thinking, and the long game for Bitcoin.
