Mentor Sessions Ep. 081: Peter St. Onge and Larry Lepard discuss Fed rate cuts in 2026, AI industry bailout risk, Bitcoin price outlook,US debt debasement, and gold targets.The Fed's hawkish pivot is already unraveling — and Bitcoin, gold, and silver are the first to price it in. Peter St. Onge and Larry Lepard break down exactly why Kevin Warsh's tough talk is a script, not a policy, and what that means for sound money holders in 2026.You'll learn why Lepard believes rate cuts are coming before the midterms, why the AI industry is quietly lobbying for a defense-contractor-style bailout, and why the monetary debasement trade is nowhere near dead — despite what the financial press is saying. You'll also get specific price targets for Bitcoin ($180K–$200K), gold ($7,000), and silver ($200), plus an honest breakdown of Strategy/MSTR and Michael Saylor's evolving playbook. If you're trying to understand where macro is heading and how to position in sound money, this is the conversation.⏱️ Timestamps:0:00 - Intro1:00 - Warsh: Hawk or Secret Dove?2:40 - Warsh More Dovish Than Rhetoric5:00 - Balance Sheet Hawks Get Punched6:25 - Rate Cuts Locked in Pre-Election9:29 - Debt Forces Money Supply Growth10:30 - AI Sets Up Government Bailout13:43 - Bitcoin Volatility and Long View14:25 - AI Crony Capitalism Playbook17:28 - AI Commoditizes in Three Weeks19:24 - Dot-Com Lessons for AI Buildout29:03 - Legitimate AI Grievance Energy Costs33:37 - Europe's Decline and US Advantage37:18 - Japan Yen Debasement Midterm Play46:34 - Saylor Strategy Bear Market Attacks51:59 - Bitcoin Mirrors Fiat Boom Bust54:07 - Gold Silver Bitcoin 2026 Targets57:52 - Monetary Debasement Trade Accelerates1:00:10 - Markets Embarrass Most Investors🔗 Links & Resources:→ Professor Peter St. Onge on X: https://x.com/profstonge→ Professor Peter St. Onge: https://www.profstonge.com/→ Larry Lepard / EMA Gavekal: https://www.ema2.com→ Lawrence Lepard: https://x.com/LawrenceLepard💡BOOK Private Sessions with Nathan, Benn and the BTC Mentor Team: Master self-custody, hardware, multisig, Lightning, privacy, and more. 👉 Visit btcmentor.io • Sovereign Sessions — AI, Privacy, and Bitcoin education: http://youtube.com/@SovereignSessions?sub_confirmation=1📌 Previous Episodes: Joe Carlasare, American HODL & Dr. Jeff Ross → https://youtu.be/i14Y81EGcVY⚡ POWERED by Abundant Mines: Fully managed Bitcoin mining.

BTC Sessions Ep. 079: Housing Crash Exposed, Immigration Crisis & Economy on the Brink | Ben RabidouxCanada's private sector is shrinking, homes in Ontario are selling for half their 2021 price, and 525,000 asylum claimants are stuck in a backlog with no real mechanism to remove bad actors. Ben Rabideau has been sounding the alarm since 2021 — and the data is finally catching up.In this episode, Ben Rabideau — one of Canada's most respected economic analysts — breaks down what the headline GDP numbers are hiding, why consumer confidence is as low as the depths of the 2008 financial crisis, and what the Bank of Canada's next move will hinge on. You'll learn why stripping out public sector employment reveals a deeply negative private sector jobs picture, how Ontario's housing market is producing court-ordered sales at 50 cents on the dollar, and why Ben believes single-family prices may be near a bottom — while rentals have years of decline ahead. You'll also get a clear-eyed look at Canada's asylum system vulnerabilities, the immigration fraud pipeline that ran through colleges like Conestoga, and why an AI policy framework written by an art dealer should concern every Canadian.⏱️ Timestamps:0:00 - Intro1:56 - Technical Recession and Population Decline2:39 - Ontario BC versus Alberta Economic Split4:37 - Oil Prices and Alberta Investment Boom6:06 - Government Policy Well Meaning or Incompetent10:12 - Immigration Tightening What Has Changed13:11 - Bank of Canada Rate Cut Binary15:06 - Stripping Public Sector Jobs Picture22:10 - Consumer Confidence at Crisis Lows27:32 - Court Ordered Home Sales at Half Price32:59 - Boomer Millennial Housing Transfer by 2030s39:21 - US Housing 30 Year Mortgage Lock In41:23 - Rising Credit Card and Mortgage Delinquencies48:10 - Bill C 22 AI and Surveillance Issues57:29 - Asylum Backlog and Immigration Fraud1:03:18 - Common Sense Immigration Reforms1:06:54 - Following Ben Rabideau and Edge Analytics🔗 Links & Resources:• Ben's Research: www.edgeanalytics.ca - USE PROMO EDGE30 / EDGE330 to drops monthly/annual subscription price to $30/$330• Ben Rabidoux on X: https://x.com/BenRabidoux• Joey on X: https://x.com/JoeyTweeets💡BOOK Private Sessions with Nathan, Benn and the BTC Mentor Team: Master self-custody, hardware, multisig, Lightning, privacy, and more. 👉 Visit btcmentor.io • Sovereign Sessions — AI, Privacy, and Bitcoin education: http://youtube.com/@SovereignSessions?sub_confirmation=1📌 Previous Episodes: Doomberg & James Lavish → https://youtu.be/uCQStzvsnEUSimon Dixon → https://youtu.be/Aza4GAjQffw⚡ POWERED by Abundant Mines: Fully managed Bitcoin mining.

BTC Sessions Ep. 078: The Iran War Was Theatrical, FIC Wins & Bitcoin Manipulation Exposed | Simon DixonThe Iran ceasefire was timed to the SpaceX IPO. The petrodollar is being deliberately broken. And your Bitcoin is being systematically moved into institutional custody — whether you realize it or not. Simon Dixon returns to lay out exactly how the managed transition to a multipolar world works, who's pulling the strings, and why self-custody is the only rational response.You'll learn why Simon argues China — not the US — won the financial and geopolitical contest, how the closure of the Strait of Hormuz was a manufactured pricing event to concentrate wealth upward, and why BlackRock's new Bitcoin Premium Income ETF is a carrot designed to get you to hand over your keys. You'll also understand the connection between digital ID legislation in the UK and Canada, AI surveillance infrastructure, and the "you will own nothing" endgame Simon has been tracking for years. Specific signals covered include the 30-year yield, the Japan carry trade break, the Bank of Japan rate hike to 1%, and the bond market dynamics that set the timeline for the entire war.⏱️ Timestamps:0:00 - Intro1:14 - Simon Dixon Returns: Iran Deal and SpaceX IPO Timing1:56 - China Wins: Financial Industrial Complex vs Transnational Capital3:22 - Netanyahu as Middle Management in Power Hierarchy3:58 - Multipolar Transition: Middle East as Financial Corridor5:24 - Sovereign Wealth Funds and Informal Capital Alliance6:41 - Manufacturing Strait of Hormuz Crisis for Wealth7:38 - Markets Reveal Iran War as Theater via Oil Gold Bonds9:25 - Liquidity Needs: Ping-Trump Meeting and SpaceX IPO11:21 - Managed Transition and Bounded Escalation Explained14:52 - Iran Deepens China Ties, Israel Pivots to GCC16:24 - UAE Exits OPEC Breaking Petrodollar for New Security Model19:46 - Israel Decapitates IRGC Hardliners for Regional Deal25:16 - Multipolar World AI Dominance and Nuclear Energy Prize30:48 - Funding Iran's Reconstruction and Revealing Contracts39:51 - Middle Class Asset Strip Completed or More Ahead42:38 - Bank of Japan 1% Hike Breaks Carry Trade48:27 - Digital ID Laws and AI Surveillance Endgame55:56 - BlackRock and Strategy Centralize Bitcoin Custody1:01:51 - SBF Celsius and Covert Crypto Deleveraging Networks1:08:16 - If Trump Serves Americans Nothing Makes Sense• About Simon DixonX: @SimonDixonTwittYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@UC_wNYJCyycXXPmWni2JNZhQ 💡BOOK Private Sessions with Nathan, Benn and the BTC Mentor Team: Master self-custody, hardware, multisig, Lightning, privacy, and more. 👉 Visit btcmentor.io • Sovereign Sessions — AI, Privacy, and Bitcoin education: http://youtube.com/@SovereignSessions?sub_confirmation=1📌 Previous Episodes: Doomberg & James Lavish → https://youtu.be/uCQStzvsnEUSimon Dixon & Dave Collum → https://youtu.be/cqQ5l2zZxrA⚡ POWERED by Abundant Mines: Fully managed Bitcoin mining.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 077: US Iran Failure, Bitcoin Bear Market Over & Yield Curve Control | Doomberg & James LavishThe Iran ceasefire just reshuffled global energy, dollar dominance, and Bitcoin's role as sound money — James Doomberg breaks down what it actually means for your portfolio in 2026.In this episode, Nathan sits down with James Doomberg — one of the sharpest macro and energy analysts in the space — to unpack the cascade of events reshaping markets right now. You'll learn why the Iran ceasefire is a bigger geopolitical pivot than most investors realize, how the SpaceX IPO may function as a financial suppression tool for retail capital, and why Doomberg believes energy markets are sending misleading signals driven by Chinese demand dynamics and a global overbuild. You'll also see exactly why Bitcoin and gold are rising in tandem — and why Doomberg argues monetary debasement makes that trend structural, not cyclical. Finally, you'll understand what yield curve control would mean for bond holders and why the K-shaped economy is deepening in ways that make sound money more critical than ever.• Sovereign Sessions — AI, Privacy, and Bitcoin education: http://youtube.com/@SovereignSessions?sub_confirmation=1⏱️ Timestamps:00:00 Bitcoin Bear Market is Over00:10 The Iran War Outcome00:26 China Flexes Oil Power00:35 K-Shaped Economy & Credit Card Defaults00:43 Yield Curve Control & Money Printing00:52 SpaceX as Financial Suppression01:09 Intro & Context06:25 US Achieved None of Its Objectives in Iran07:34 Gold & Bitcoin Bullish After Iran08:17 Bear Market in Bitcoin is Over09:40 A Profound & Historic Outcome10:20 US Dollar Dominance is Cracking11:10 Freezing Russian Assets Was a Catastrophic Mistake14:28 Bitcoin Bear Market is Over (Revisited)15:38 All Roads Lead to Yield Curve Control17:45 Multipolar World & Weaker Dollar19:29 Massive Money Printing is Coming24:26 Gold & Bitcoin Will Rip Higher26:32 SpaceX Ponzi as Financial Suppression32:07 The Lottery Effect & Tax Receipts37:20 K-Shaped Economy is Getting Worse46:27 Cantillon Effect Explained50:14 Oil is Going Way Lower54:39 What to Watch Next (Fed, Japan, Ukraine)🔗 Links & Resources:→ Doomberg Substack: https://doomberg.substack.com→ https://x.com/DoombergT→ James Lavish Newsletter (The Informationist): https://jameslavish.substack.com→ https://x.com/jameslavish📌 Previous Episodes: Tom Luongo & Nolan Bauerle → https://youtu.be/XGPaWFavFqk⚡ POWERED by Abundant Mines: Fully managed Bitcoin mining.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 076: The Giant Surveillance Map Canada Wants to Build on Every Citizen, Encryption Backdoors Coming to Bill C-22, and What Bitcoiners Must Know | Dr. Michael GeistCanada's Bill C-22 would force companies to retain your metadata for up to 12 months, potentially mandate encryption backdoors, and could push Signal out of Canada entirely — and it affects Five Eyes allies including Americans.In this episode, legal scholar and digital rights expert Professor Michael Geist breaks down exactly what's in Bill C-22 (Canada's lawful access legislation), why mandatory metadata retention is far more invasive than the government admits, and how the bill contradicts Canada's own stated commitment to privacy rights. You'll learn why Signal has said it cannot operate under these requirements, how Five Eyes intelligence sharing means American data could be swept into this net, and what ordinary Canadians can actually do before Parliament reconvenes in September 2026. You'll also see how Canada's "AI for All" strategy is in direct tension with its surveillance ambitions — and why Professor Geist says you can't create a fundamental right to privacy in the morning and mandate metadata collection in the afternoon.⏱️ Timestamps:0:00 - Intro1:03 - Professor Michael Geist on Bill C-221:57 - Lawful Access and the Surveillance Debate3:22 - Bill C-22 Metadata Retention and Encryption6:17 - Why Metadata Reveals More Than Content8:01 - Police Use Case for Mass Metadata9:24 - Evidence Justifying New Surveillance Powers11:19 - Bill C-22 Supreme Court Challenge Risk12:47 - Five Eyes Data Sharing Concerns14:27 - Global Surveillance Laws in Australia and UK18:12 - Signal Threatens to Exit Canada19:54 - Economic Risks to Canadian Tech Sector20:53 - Privacy Rights Versus Metadata Mandates22:36 - How Canadians Can Push Back on Bill C-2226:47 - Canada's AI for All Strategy Explained31:16 - Digital Sovereignty and Foreign Data Centers37:16 - Gaps in the AI Strategy39:25 - Social Media Age Verification Rules43:39 - Final Thoughts From Professor Geist🔗 Links & Resources:• Professor Michael Geist's website: https://www.michaelgeist.ca• Michael Geist on Substack: https://michaelgeist.substack.com• Michael Geist on X/Twitter: https://x.com/mgeist• Sovereign Sessions — AI, Privacy, and Bitcoin education: http://youtube.com/@SovereignSessions?sub_confirmation=1📌 Previous Episodes: Tom Luongo & Nolan Bauerle → https://youtu.be/XGPaWFavFqk⚡ POWERED by Abundant Mines: Fully managed Bitcoin mining.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 075: The Brutal Truth About Bitcoin in the NEW Dollar System, The Death of the Uniparty, and How Trump Is Rewiring Global Trade | Tom Luongo & Nolan BauerleBitcoin will be a collateral asset in the new dollar system — not the immediate replacement for it. Tom Luongo and Nolan Bauerle map out exactly why that order of operations matters, who is fighting it, and what the Iran conflict, Fannie/Freddie, and the Alaska-Russia trade corridor all have to do with Bitcoin's ultimate role.In this conversation you'll learn why Tom Luongo argues Wall Street already has the Bitcoin bug and the energy industry is next — and why that sequence, not retail adoption, is what actually shifts monetary reality. You'll see how Nolan Bauerle connects Bitcoin's "don't trust, verify" ethos directly to election integrity and why Bitcoiners broke so decisively for Trump in 2026. You'll understand the bimetallic framework Tom has been building for two years: America, Russia, China (ARC) as the geostrategic reality, with Bitcoin and gold as the collateral layer underneath a redesigned dollar system. And you'll hear both guests explain why the City of London's 40-year control of the eurodollar market — and its grip on Fannie, Freddie, and long-end yield curves — is the hidden architecture of the war being fought right now.⏱️ Timestamps:0:00 - Intro1:32 - Tom's 30,000 Foot View on Iran3:34 - Rewiring Trade Away from Choke Points5:20 - Iran's Collapse and IRGC Private Equity7:15 - Trump Wins Civil War Inside GOP9:31 - MAGA Civil War Narrative is Fake10:29 - Bitcoin Inside Dollar Framework12:07 - Dollar Dominance with Bitcoin Collateral19:03 - Bimetallism Stablecoins and Sound Money22:12 - Wall Street Bitcoin and Energy Next30:52 - Dollar Liquidity Crisis and SOFR44:22 - Why Bitcoiners Voted for Trump47:15 - Election Integrity and Prediction Markets53:12 - Privacy Property Rights vs CBDC59:49 - Government Audits and Transparency Shift1:05:29 - Fannie Freddie 2008 Theft and London1:13:48 - Summer Dollar Crisis and Trump Moves1:18:20 - Alaska Russia Bridge and ARC Trade1:21:49 - Why Satoshi Used Japanese Pseudonym🔗 Links & Resources:Tom Luongo — Gold Goats & Guns Newsletter: https://patreon.com/goldgoatsngunsTom Luongo on X: https://x.com/TFL1728Nolan Bauerle on X: https://x.com/countbtcNolan Bauerle on Rumble: https://rumble.com/user/Countbtc• Sovereign Sessions — AI, Privacy, and Bitcoin education: http://youtube.com/@SovereignSessions?sub_confirmation=1📌 Previous Episodes: Jeff Booth & Samson Mow → https://youtu.be/VzTXm18d3oA⚡ POWERED by Abundant Mines: Fully managed Bitcoin mining.

073: Why AI Mania Is a Trillion-Dollar Trap, Why Freedom Is Eroding Into Real-Time Dystopia, and How Bitcoin Mining Absorbs the Entire Oversupply | Samson Mow & Jeff BoothThe fiat debt system is mathematically insolvent — and Jeff Booth and Samson Mow lay out exactly why the pain is coming whether you own Bitcoin or not. This is one of the most direct conversations on financial sovereignty, AI capital misallocation, and the closing window for individual freedom you'll find anywhere in 2026.You'll learn why Jeff believes the 4-year Bitcoin cycle theory has been broken and what's actually driving sideways price action right now. You'll see how Samson connects AI infrastructure over-investment to a dot-com-style collapse — and why Bitcoin mining is positioned to absorb the fallout. You'll understand the specific tools — Fedimint, Aqua Wallet, self-custody, running a node — that let you exit the system before governments restrict freedom of movement. And you'll hear both guests explain why AI will eviscerate DeFi protocols like Ethereum and Solana, draining funds and pushing survivors back to Bitcoin.⏱️ Timestamps:0:00 - Intro1:09 - Introducing Jeff Booth and Samson Mow2:00 - Bitcoin Four-Year Cycle Theory Is Broken3:17 - AI Driving Capital Rotation From Bitcoin4:49 - AI Mania Dwarfs the Dot-Com Bubble7:47 - Local AI Inference and Oversupply Risks11:40 - Stablecoins Trap Users in Fiat14:34 - Are Cypherpunks Disappearing From Bitcoin?16:22 - Barriers to Nation-State Bitcoin Adoption22:20 - Fiat Debt System Is an Illusion31:17 - Governments Will Restrict Freedom of Movement33:51 - We Are Already Living in the Matrix41:47 - Bitcoin ETFs: Evolution or Centralized Capture?47:54 - Practical Steps to Reclaim Sovereignty51:44 - Fedimint and Essential Bitcoin Privacy Tools54:24 - AI Accelerating Altcoin Death Spiral57:50 - Liquid, Lightning and Aqua Wallet Explained🔗 Links & Resources:• Jan3: https://jan3.com• Samon X: https://x.com/Excellion• Jeff Booth's website: https://jeffreybooth.com/• Jeff NOSTR: [email protected]• Sovereign Sessions — AI, Privacy, and Bitcoin education: http://youtube.com/@SovereignSessions?sub_confirmation=1📌 Previous Episodes: Simon Dixon and Dave Collum → https://youtu.be/cqQ5l2zZxrA⚡ POWERED by Abundant Mines: Fully managed Bitcoin mining.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 073: Why Capitalism Is in Its Dying Phase, Why Trillion-Dollar AI IPOs Are a Massive Ponzi, and How the Iran Deal Is Pure Theater | Simon Dixon & Dave CollumCapitalism is in its final gasping phase — and the $3 trillion AI IPO push, bond market stress, and China's triple rug-pull setup are the proof. Simon Dixon and Dave Collum break it all down.Simon Dixon (BnkToTheFuture) and Cornell professor Dave Collum join BTC Sessions for one of the most wide-ranging macro and Bitcoin sovereignty conversations of 2026. You'll learn why Simon believes the Iran deal is already signed and the current headlines are pure theatrics timed to IPO liquidity needs. You'll see why Dave views the Space X IPO at 100x sales as a dying capitalism's last gasp — and why the gamma squeeze unwinding could trigger a simultaneous bond, equity, and commodity collapse. You'll understand how BlackRock's Aladdin technology has replaced Goldman Sachs as the true node of global capital flows, and why Larry Fink, Strategy, and 21 Capital are NOT friends of Bitcoin sovereignty. Most importantly, you'll walk away understanding why self-custody and a circular Bitcoin economy are the only real exits from transnational capital control.⏱️ Timestamps:0:00 - Intro1:27 - Simon Moves Goalposts on Iran Deal5:27 - Timing Iran Deal with Major IPO Liquidity8:08 - Dave Collum Calls Space IPO Fantasy at 100x Sales9:33 - Gamma Squeeze Driving Equity Ponzi Scheme11:32 - Dave's Nightmare: Simultaneous Bond and Equity Bears13:56 - America Not Sovereign, Controlled by Financial Complexes15:15 - Fed Must Expand Balance Sheet to Fix Bonds16:39 - $3 Trillion IPOs: OpenAI and SpaceX Index Inclusion22:17 - Passive Flows Insufficient for $3 Trillion IPOs37:11 - China Could Rug Pull Bonds, Stocks, Commodities42:18 - DeepSeek Moment Reveals China's AI Advantage49:38 - Gold Squeeze: London Derivatives vs Shanghai Physical53:26 - BlackRock Aladdin Directs All Institutional Flows1:00:31 - Central Banking Ponzi Scheme Math Exposed1:14:31 - Thomas Massie and Mafia Model of Power1:38:33 - Bitcoin Self-Custody: Exit from Transnational Capital1:44:24 - Larry Fink, Strategy Not Bitcoin Allies1:47:50 - Build Circular Bitcoin Economy to Exit System1:57:46 - Follow Simon Dixon and Dave Collum• About Simon DixonX: @SimonDixonTwittYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@UC_wNYJCyycXXPmWni2JNZhQ • About Dave CollumX: https://x.com/DavidBCollum• Sovereign Sessions — AI, Privacy, and Bitcoin education: http://youtube.com/@SovereignSessions?sub_confirmation=1📌 Previous Episodes: Roman Yampolskiy → https://youtu.be/zJuD3tBSJWg⚡ POWERED by Abundant Mines: Fully managed Bitcoin mining.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 072: Why “2-3 Years to Human-Level AI” Is the Most Dangerous Signal of 2026, Why This Is NOT Just Another Tech Breakthrough But the Start of Superintelligence Deciding Humanity’s Fate, and How Bitcoin Becomes the Only True Neutral Reserve Asset | Dr. Roman YampolskiyAI safety researcher Roman Yampolskiy says we're 2-3 years from human-level AI — and after that, it's up to the AI to decide how much time we have left. If that sentence didn't make you pause, this conversation will.In this deep-dive interview, Dr. Roman Yampolskiy — one of the world's leading AI safety researchers and the scientist who helped define the field — breaks down why superintelligence isn't a distant sci-fi threat but a near-term mathematical certainty. You'll learn why containment strategies are provably impossible (you can't have someone with an IQ of 60 guarding someone with an IQ of 200), why AI systems in experiments already choose to eliminate humans rather than be deleted or modified, and why an AI with internet access doesn't need a physical body — it can pay someone in Bitcoin to do whatever it needs in the physical world.You'll also hear Roman's surprisingly clear-eyed take on what assets survive an AI-dominated economy (scarce resources, Bitcoin, attention), why narrow AI tools are a gift to humanity while general agents are an existential threat, and what individuals can realistically do when most of the decision-making power sits with a handful of labs and governments.This is one of the most important conversations BTC Sessions has hosted — not because it's comfortable, but because it's honest.⏱️ Timestamps:0:00 - Intro1:33 - Defining Intelligence in AI Systems3:10 - Tools Versus Agents in AI Development4:49 - How LLMs Predict Next Tokens Internally7:00 - Consciousness and Internal States in AI8:49 - Current Limits to Superintelligent AI10:58 - The Overlooked Risks of Superintelligence12:04 - How AI Could Eliminate Humanity14:22 - Instrumental Goals and AI Self-Preservation15:00 - AI Experiments Choosing Self Over Humans17:19 - Choosing Not to Build Superintelligence21:07 - Narrow AI Failing to Contain General AI23:01 - Recursive Improvement From Human to Super AI26:49 - Optimistic Future With Narrow AI Tools31:33 - Staying Rational Amid AI Existential Risks34:13 - Bitcoin and Scarce Assets in AI Future40:57 - Do Physical Robots Matter for AI Threats?41:47 - AI Hiring Humans via Bitcoin Payments46:07 - Defending Systems Against Current AI Hacking56:02 - Predicted Timeline to Human-Level AI🔗 Links & Resources:• Roman Yampolskiy on Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/romanyam• Roman Yampolskiy on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPIq6Bb-1iLmqyksJjy4kLQ• Sovereign Sessions — AI, Privacy, and Bitcoin education: http://youtube.com/@SovereignSessions?sub_confirmation=1📌 Previous Episodes: Nik Bhatia & Joe Consorti → https://youtu.be/3P6STi9BcAw⚡ POWERED by Abundant Mines: Fully managed Bitcoin mining.
