Hosting Bitcoin

Bitcoin Isn't Replacing the Dollar? AI Matters More Than Bitcoin? Those aren't criticisms coming from a Bitcoin skeptic. They're coming from one of the most respected monetary thinkers in the Bitcoin space.

In this episode of Hosting Bitcoin, we sit down with Gen ZBTC — Bitcoin educator, speaker, and one of the most recognizable young voices in the movement to unpack what Bitcoin uniquely means for a generation that feels locked out of ownership, freedom, and truth. From meme coins and WallStreetBets to speaking at the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C., Gen Z shares his story of losing money in “crypto,” finding conviction in Bitcoin, and discovering how broken incentives, inflation, and nihilism have shaped Gen Z’s view of adulthood and wealth. We explore why Bitcoin resonates with a generation raised online, how self-custody became his turning point, and why showing up in real life from local meetups to D.C. policy events, actually matters. This is an honest, high-energy conversation about truth, responsibility, and reclaiming ownership in a world that tells you it’s impossible.

In this episode of Hosting Bitcoin, we sit down with Susie Violet Ward — CEO & co-founder of Bitcoin Policy UK, writer, and steadfast advocate for truth, freedom, and education — to unpack why policy, energy markets, and mining matter for everyday sovereignty in the UK. From accounting and finance to data systems and now national advocacy, Susie’s journey reveals how broken incentives, bad narratives, and outdated regulations block Britons from accessing the world’s hardest money. We dig into the FCA’s treatment of Bitcoin vs. “crypto,” why UK retail still can’t access a spot ETF, and how curtailment economics (paying wind farms to switch off!) collide with the promise of Bitcoin mining as a flexible load. This is a no-BS conversation about education, media capture, and building parallel rails—plus Susie’s 13-month fight with the BBC over a widely cited but flawed energy claim, and how targeted lobbying, proof-of-concept mining pilots, and thousands of constituent emails can move the Overton window faster than you think.

In this episode of Hosting Bitcoin, we sit down with Ali Webb — co-founder of White Paper Studio, founding member of Forager Collective, and a creative force reimagining how Bitcoin can fuel storytelling. From leading projects for global icons like Nike, Spotify, Airbnb, Cartier, and Vogue to launching a Bitcoin-backed media company, Ali's journey is proof that sound money isn’t just financial — it’s cultural. This is a wide-ranging conversation about how Bitcoin can fix film, why fiat funding kills creativity, and how rethinking time preference changes not only business but art itself. We explore the challenges of post-production, the constraints of brand work, and the freedom that comes when you align creativity with a Bitcoin treasury.

In this episode of Hosting Bitcoin, we sit down with Efrat Fenigson — marketer, technologist, and fierce advocate for personal sovereignty in a world tilting toward centralized control. From designing video games to leading global marketing teams, Efrat’s path took a radical turn when she discovered Bitcoin’s potential to protect freedom and challenge a broken monetary system. Today, she’s a nomad on a mission: helping people see beyond media narratives and prepare for the coming digital financial shift. This conversation is a candid exploration of why the next decade could redefine money as we know it — and why most people are unprepared. With clarity and conviction, Efrat unpacks how CBDCs, stablecoins, and carbon markets are converging into an architecture of control, and why learning to opt out is no longer optional.

In this episode of Hosting Bitcoin, we sit down with Brad Cuddy — energy operator, infrastructure builder, and bold voice for Bitcoin in the heart of Texas. From burning gas in the North Sea to building immersive mining labs in West Texas, Brad shares how Bitcoin transformed his career, his purpose, and his vision for the future of energy. With roots in oil and gas and boots on the ground across global energy markets, he’s now championing abundant energy, flexible load infrastructure, and education in rural communities through his work at Cholla Energy. This conversation is a deep dive into energy sovereignty, operational grit, and why Bitcoin is more than just magic internet money — it’s a catalyst for freedom, resilience, and revitalization.

In this episode of Hosting Bitcoin, we sit down with Daniel Batten, an environmentalist, venture capitalist, and one of Bitcoin’s most respected voices on energy and emissions, to explore how true freedom starts from within. From methane mitigation to mindset shifts, Daniel shares how meditation led him into Bitcoin and why self-sovereignty means nothing without freedom of mind. This conversation spans leadership, personal growth, environmental truth, and the global humanitarian impact of Bitcoin.
