Jordi Visser is back by popular demand. I shared something I've been noticing all year — that Bitcoin sentiment feels different this cycle, less like a movement to fix a broken system and more like a line item in a portfolio. He pushed back harder than I expected. His argument is that the old financial system is breaking in front of us, a new one is forming faster than people think, and Bitcoin is the piece of it he's certain survives. We discuss: Whether the sudden push for AI regulation was coordinated, and who benefits His response to the argument that the data center debt looks like 2008 housing Why he says you can't understand where Bitcoin goes next without watching the rest of crypto Where he agrees with Michael Saylor, and where he says he sees Bitcoin differently than anyone he knows Why worrying about the future is the habit that costs investors the most Why he walked away from a top job at Morgan Stanley after 9/11 Follow Jordi Visser on X https://x.com/jvisserlabs ---- Order Natalie's new book "Bitcoin is For Everyone," a simple introduction to Bitcoin and what's broken in our current financial system: https://amzn.to/3WzFzfU ---- Borrow against your Bitcoin without selling it.
