Mark Moss joins the show to talk about why Bitcoin is not just an asset, but a financial cheat code that exposes how broken the modern system really is. Mark explains why wages can never outrun inflation, why saving harder is a losing strategy, and why wealth has always been built through assets, leverage, and system design rather than hustle culture. We unpack Bitcoin treasury companies, MSTR, leverage, preferreds, and why most criticism of these structures misses how traditional finance actually works.

We then get into Bitcoin as the foundation of a new personal and institutional playbook. Mark lays out how individuals can think about building a Bitcoin based treasury, managing risk, liquidity, and leverage without blowing themselves up, and why never selling Bitcoin requires building an engine around it. We also get into macro, global liquidity and the breakdown of the four year cycle.
