BTC Sessions

Boomers holding Bitcoin are being targeted by scammers — and most don't know it until it's too late.

In Episode 6 of Bitcoin Boomers, hosts Bob Burnett, Larry Leopard, and Gary Leland sit down with Joe Kelly, CEO of
Unchained Capital, to break down why older Bitcoin holders are disproportionately targeted by scams, what those scams
actually look like, and exactly how to defend yourself. Joe explains what Unchained Capital does, why collaborative custody
is a game-changer for security, and what practical steps any boomer (or anyone) can take right now to stop being an easy
target. Additionally special guest author Terence Michael jumps hops on with some incredible stories of bitcoin theft. If you or someone you love holds Bitcoin and doesn't have a rock-solid security plan, this episode is essential
viewing.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 059: The War Behind the War — Iran Conflict's Impact on Geopolitics, Energy, Money & Bitcoin | Simon Dixon & Dave Collum

The Iran conflict isn't just a military story — it's a financial renegotiation between the world's most powerful institutions, and
Bitcoin sits at the center of what comes next.
Simon Dixon and Professor Dave Collum join Nathan Fitzsimmons to break down the global reset
already underway: why the closure of the Strait of Hormuz triggered renegotiations of 50 critical energy and resource
agreements, how 45 years of compounding market overvaluation is unwinding, and what Dubai's quiet rotation from gold
into Bitcoin signals about where smart money is moving.
This is the framework for understanding 2026 conflict as we shift to a multipolar world— and why the private credit game being over is actually the opening Bitcoin
has been waiting for.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 058: Private Credit Breakdown, US Economic Risk, Canada Collapsing, Bitcoin vs CBDC | Richard Dias

$1.8 trillion in private credit — and the cracks are already showing. Richard Dias, macro strategist and co-host of the Loonie Hour, lays out exactly why the next financial shock may already be in motion.

Rich breaks down how decades of easy money built a private credit empire — and why rising rates, fund gating, and hidden markdowns signal the unraveling has begun. You'll learn why this rhymes with 2008 but hits differently, what central banks will likely do when it blows, and why Bitcoin may be the only credible exit from a system built on valuation lies.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 057: Iran War Hidden Motivations - Financial Industrial Complex vs Military Industrial Complex | Simon Dixon

Nobody can agree on why this war started. Some say it's about nukes. Some say Israel. Some say protecting America. Simon Dixon says they're all wrong — and when you follow the money, the real picture is unlike anything you're hearing in mainstream or alternative media. In this episode, Simon breaks down the financial industrial complex behind the Iran conflict, why China is letting America bomb Iran, who actually benefits from closing the Strait of Hormuz, and why a single meeting in April could restructure the entire world order. This isn't a war between nations. It's a war between the military industrial complex and the financial industrial complex — and the Middle East is just the battlefield. Simon Dixon is the founder of BnkToTheFuture and one of the sharpest macro minds in Bitcoin. If you want to understand what's really happening, where the money is flowing, and what it means for Bitcoin and your stack — this is the episode. Watch to the end for Simon's prediction on the April China Summit and exactly what Bitcoiners should be doing right now.
