🟠💊NEW!! 🟠💊 I am launching a free online course based on The Bitcoin Standard starting today on my podcast and Youtube channel! Watch the first lecture now and be sure to subscribe to get all the lectures over the coming weeks!

At the Property &amp; Freedom Society, I present my latest book, The Gold Standard, an alternative history of the 20th century where hard money ended WWI, made governments compete for citizens &amp; enabled free trade &amp; self-determination.

Important security update for anyone using a COLDCARD. A serious vulnerability has been disclosed involving the randomness used by some COLDCARD devices when generating Bitcoin seeds. If you use one, move your bitcoin to a new seed generated elsewhere.

Lecture 2 in The Bitcoin Standard explains the problem money solves, how the solution shapes the desirable properties of money: salability across scales, space &amp; time; why the latter property, expressed through hardness, is the critical feature of money &amp; how it can be measured.

My podcast this week is republishing my first talk on The Bitcoin Standard, at its 2018 launch, which was held in Vienna, fittingly enough.

🇺🇸🐑25 years ago Netanyahu was uncharacteristically honest as he thought cameras were off "America is a thing that can be easily moved in the right direction" Today he's taking over the US military & 99% of US political & military leaders are going along like blind cucked sheep

Can growing stablecoin demand reduce price inflation &amp; help US fiscal solvency. In this week's episode, I focus on often-overlooked trade-offs: lost seigniorage, displaced long-term Treasury demand &amp; bank credit, &amp; more fragile short-term funding &amp; rollover risk.

I debated Peter Schiff Peter Schiff on gold, bitcoin, and the future of money, during the PlanB Conference in San Salvador!

The founder of the SeedSigner open source project Seed joins me to discuss the Coldcard hack, how the SeedSigner works, and the advantages of open source solutions.

Has Uncle Scrooge been reading my latest book....? 👀 My new economics course, Principles of Economics, is starting next month! Find out more on (RT for the chance to win a free spot on the course!)

I make the case for Bitcoin as apolar money, the only workable alternative to a government global reserve currency and a unipolar world order, and explain how geopolitical developments underscore this role.

I join Mark Moss (Mark Moss) to discuss how fiat money and central banking are destroying people's ability to build wealth, why Bitcoin beats gold as a store of value, the recent Cold Card hack, self-custody, and whether borrowing to buy Bitcoin is a smart strategy.

In this interview with Mario Nawfal, I discuss my Misesian case against Israel, arguing the Palestinian/Israeli conflict can only be understood as the result of the denial of property rights for Palestinians based purely on their not belonging to the ruling ethnoreligious group.

Starting this week, I’m releasing all the lectures from my Principles of Economics course for free! The first lecture explores economics as human action and choice under scarcity, purposeful behaviour, and why sound economics begins with understanding how people act.

Rothbard at 100 is in production! As you can see, the books are printed in premium hardcover with gold foil stamping, and then they will be covered with a dust jacket. Also available as an audiobook and eBook. Preorder your copy now:

I argue bitcoin mining electricity consumption and capital expenditure may have peaked, present the argument as a testable hypothesis, and discuss the long-term implications for bitcoin, mining, and AI.

Founder and CEO of Swan Cory 🦢 Real Bitcoin @ Swan.com joins me to discuss the accelerating surveillance state, why bitcoin is the alternative to the left and right, and why stablecoins, gold, and CBDCs don't threaten Bitcoin.

At the Property & Freedom Society, I present my latest book, The Gold Standard, an alternative history of the 20th century where hard money ended WWI, made governments compete for citizens & enabled free trade & self-determination.
