They discuss Trump's proposed Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, BitBonds as a solution to interest costs, and how the "Bitcoinization of finance" differs from DeFi's approach. The conversation covers Bitcoin's competitive advantage against other cryptocurrencies, the importance of political engagement for Bitcoiners, and strategies for expanding Bitcoin adoption through both institutional integration and grassroots advocacy.
