In this episode:

In this episode, we examine Bitcoin's steady recovery as institutional ETF inflows improve and the market begins to stabilize despite rising oil prices, elevated real yields, and ongoing geopolitical uncertainty. We explore the growing convergence between Bitcoin mining and artificial intelligence infrastructure, the evolving economics of Bitcoin treasury companies, and the latest developments surrounding the CLARITY Act in Washington. We also dive into the spirited debate over BIP 110 and Bitcoin governance, recap the most insightful conversations from the Bitcoin podcast universe, feature Week 10 of A Bitcoin Way of Life, and share an update on all four Bitcoin Fortress books—including a teaser for what's coming next.
