Episode Details

This episode cuts through the hype and confusion to explain what Bitcoin actually is. We unpack Bitcoin as a scarce, decentralized form of digital gold secured by real work, real energy, and transparent rules. As we break down mining, nodes, and proof-of-work, we reflect on what it means to build a monetary system rooted in accountability rather than manipulation. More importantly, we explore how Bitcoin’s design reflects Islamic principles of honest labor, transparency, and true ownership through self-custody. In doing so, we draw a sharp line between Bitcoin and the thousands of altcoins driven by marketing, insiders, and manipulation—highlighting what makes BTC fundamentally different.
