Bitcoin isn’t the Next Big Thing… it’s THE Thing #bitcoin

In this powerful conversation, Jesse Tevelow opens up about his personal journey into Bitcoin and the transformative impact it has had on his life, mental health, and worldview. Drawing from his book Life After Bitcoin, Jesse explores how Bitcoin reshapes not only individual lives but also relationships, society, and the global economy.

We dive into the role of personality types in Bitcoin adoption, the spiritual and political awakening sparked by sound money, and the way tragedy can clarify Bitcoin’s deeper purpose. As a technologist, Jesse reflects on how politics intersects with Bitcoin and how Elon Musk, even through DOGE, helped shine a light on the broken money system for millions.

Rather than chasing “the next big thing,” Jesse argues that Bitcoin is THE THING, the breakthrough discovery of our time. He frames Bitcoin as a force of nature that humanity is just beginning to understand (The 5th Element) Imagine being alive when fire was first harnessed. That’s the level of transformation we’re living through today, and Jesse emphasizes the once in a species opportunity of being here for this moment.

Looking forward, Jesse shares thought-provoking insights on the intersection of Bitcoin and AI, the dangers of the fiat “slavery mindset,” and why Bitcoin is fundamentally different from other cryptocurrencies. He highlights the importance of treasury companies in accelerating adoption and unpacks the symbolic “green vs. orange” dichotomy as a reflection of shifting values in society.

If you’re curious about the personal, political, and spiritual dimensions of Bitcoin, and what the world might look like life after Bitcoin, you won’t want to miss this episode.
