ℹ️ EPISODE SUMMARY
Bram Kanstein and Tony Yazbeck discuss Bitcoin as defiance, not a tech stock. Tony confronts fiat money as surveillance, debasement, and a tax machine that breaks purchasing power. They reveal why ETFs, Bitcoin treasuries, and borrowing against Bitcoin can rewire Bitcoin into counterparty risk. The conversation ties sovereignty to self-custody, the 21 million hard cap, and living on a Bitcoin standard. It also warns what a Lebanon-style collapse could look like in the West.
