Ricky Zhang, host of the Age of Abundance podcast, joins Michael Jordan to explore Bitcoin, AI, and energy, and why their convergence is the biggest transformation in human history. Ricky frames Bitcoin by its end state rather than its mechanics, and what actually changes once the money is fixed. They discuss how AI is quietly erasing traditional jobs, what it means to raise children in a post-fiat world, and why Bitcoin is the first asset where physics defends the holder. Can fixing the money fix the world? Did Bitcoin really start as a right-wing movement only to end up somewhere else entirely? A wide-ranging conversation on Bitcoin self-custody and the end of fiat.
