The Wolf Of All Streets

A four-star admiral just stood on the floor of Congress and told senators that the US military is actively researching Bitcoin for national defense. Not as an investment. Not as a hedge. As a weapon. In this episode, Dennis Porter of Satoshi Action Fund breaks down what happened in that room, why the Pentagon is running a Bitcoin node, how proof of work can protect military communications from Chinese cyberattacks, and why 97% of mining hardware being made in China is a massive national security problem. He also reveals the behind-the-scenes fight to get a strategic Bitcoin reserve attached to the NDAA, why the crypto market structure bill is likely dead because of one clause nobody is talking about, and why states are quietly banning Bitcoin ATMs while the federal government stockpiles it. This is the most important Bitcoin policy conversation happening right now, and almost nobody is paying attention.

Wall Street just split on the biggest threat facing Bitcoin — and it's not regulation. Goldman Sachs walked away from quantum computing research while JPMorgan doubles down with a 50-person team. Coinbase is warning the industry has 5 to 10 years before quantum machines can crack blockchain encryption, and one Bitcoin developer is already proposing a hard fork to reassign Satoshi's coins before that window closes. Meanwhile, the Fed is expected to hold rates steady in what could be Powell's final meeting as chair, DeFi is scrambling through a $300 million bailout after the Kelp DAO hack, and the Treasury just froze $344 million in crypto tied to Iran.
