![Anthony Scaramucci doesn’t view Bitcoin as just another trade or speculative technology without a strong, scalable use case. He sees it as the apex form of money and told me every serious investor he knows who has truly studied Bitcoin eventually arrives at the same conclusion: you need to own it. In this latest Proof of Thought Podcast episode, we talked about why the four year cycle is still alive, why he has October 1, 2026 circled on his calendar, and how a single meeting inside the White House in 2017 changed the way he thinks about money forever. But honestly, some of the most interesting parts of the conversation had nothing to do with Bitcoin. • Getting fired from the White House • Personal setbacks and his redemption arc • How he thinks AI will reshape careers and society • His one message to Donald Trump • Biggest life lessons This episode is packed with takeaways about money, investing, business, and living a full life. Anthony has a natural ability to move between Bitcoin, macro, investing, politics, humor, and life philosophy without missing a beat. Thank you to Anthony Scaramucci for joining us.

Inflation isn’t a mistake. It’s policy. But Bitcoin is an engineered exit. In this episode, we sit down with Lyn Alden (Lyn Alden) — author of Broken Money and one of the most respected voices on macro, monetary history, and Bitcoin. She connects today’s system to the 1920s–1940s cycle — and what it signals for the decade ahead. The system requires ongoing debasement to function. We cover: • Why the 2020s mirror the 1940s, and what to expect as a result in the decade ahead • Why debt-based systems structurally lead to inflation • How the system shifts private debt to the public • Why central banks have been accumulating gold since 2009 • The weakening demand for treasuries — and what it actually signals • What a multipolar reserve system is and why it's already emerging • How inflation works against savers and wage earners • The tradeoffs of deflation • Why scarce assets are the only protection against inflation • How Bitcoin combines gold-like scarcity with modern settlement • What Bitcoin still needs in order to become a global reserve asset If you think in first principles — start here. If you want to better understand money, inflation, and where this system is heading — also start here. Thank you to Lyn for joining us. Follow her: X: Lyn Alden Website: Highlights: 0:00 If the 2000s, 2010s, and 2020s mirror the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s respectively… what comes next? 7:52 Implications of continued debasement 9:14 Why there's 325x more broad money per person 12:53 Why deflation can be positive 19:08 Current policy encourages consumption.

Very much enjoyed my recent conversation with Frans Bakker. Frans has been early to emerging winners like Bitcoin, Metaplanet Inc., and most recently Bitcoin miners like IREN. It was great hearing his insights and how he consistently gets ahead of the crowd as an investor. Congrats on all your success, Frans. Excited to keep up with your journey. I'll be cheering you on and many thanks to BTC for helping make this Proof of Thought Podcast episode happen! 🧡
