Mentor Sessions Ep. 051: Giacomo Zucco on Bitcoin's 2026 Boom - ARK Scaling Revolution, Privacy Wars, Cypherpunk Survival, and Why Nation-States Fuel Bitcoin's Win

What if Bitcoin's biggest problem in 2025 was too much success—lulling us into complacency on privacy, self-custody, and true adoption? Giacomo Zucco, Bitcoin OG and Plan B Network founder, warns that 2026 could flip the script with global upheavals driving real-world use cases for censorship-resistant tools. In this deep-dive interview on the BTC Sessions channel, Giacomo breaks down ARK as Lightning Network's "missing piece" for massive scaling, why privacy by omission beats obfuscation for cost savings and regulatory deniability, and how covenants could make Bitcoin non-interactive, safer, and cheaper.

He unpacks Europe's privacy crackdown, Switzerland's fading safe-haven status, and the spectrum of trust in solutions like eCash, Liquid, and Spark—plus Plan B's global education push, including university courses, high-school node setups in El Salvador, and the upcoming Cypher Tank pitch show. Giacomo's optimistic twist: Bitcoin thrives on adversaries like failing nation-states and unsustainable ETFs/stablecoins, ensuring long-term dominance through low-time-preference building. If you're stacking sats and seeking Bitcoin's cypherpunk fundamentals beyond price hype, this is your white pill for 2026 sovereignty.

The Bitcoin Boomers Ep. 04: "There Needs to be a Revolution" Ex-Reagan Library Director Speaks Out on Bitcoin | John Heubusch, Lawrence Lepard, Bob Burnett, Gary Leland

John Heubusch (former Executive Director of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library, Reagan insider, and bestselling author) joins Lawrence Lepard, Bob Burnett, and Gary Leland for an explosive Bitcoin Boomers episode exposing fiat's collapse under America's $38.6 trillion national debt and Bitcoin's revolutionary escape. As Bitcoin hovers around $89K in January 2026 after dipping from 2025's $126K highs, John declares: "There needs to be a revolution... maybe that's when Bitcoin has its moments," linking Reagan's "government is the problem" ethos to sound money's revival. The crew dismantles Nixon's 1971 gold shock as fiat's "beginning of the end," fueling inequality, endless printing, and ethical rot in politics—why Reagan would HODL Bitcoin for its tech disruption like Star Wars defense. Amid hyperinflation fears and US overexpansion mirroring the Soviets' fall, they orange-pill boomers: scarcity (21M BTC cap vs. infinite fiat), network effects outpacing Visa/Mastercard, and AI needing Bitcoin as its frictionless currency. John shares jaw-dropping tales—dating Lady Di, rescuing Reagan's blood vial from eBay, running the Library with Air Force One inside—and his cancer survival blending faith/immunotherapy. Larry slams advisors ignoring Bitcoin's 16-year dominance, Bob ties PC revolution to BTC adoption, Gary urges top 1% ownership (just 0.25 BTC). This is the boomer blueprint: escape fiat's cliff before calamity forces change. Stack sats now—Bitcoin's your hedge against debasement.
