"We have entered a space where we literally own nothing." ~ Guy What happens when 25 years of digital identity vanishes overnight because of a $500 gift card? This jaw-dropping story exposes how deeply we've surrendered control of our digital lives to platforms that can lock us out without recourse. But is there a way to reclaim sovereignty over our identities, payments, and content before we lose everything? Check out the original article 20 Years of Digital Life, Gone in an Instant by Dr Paris Buttfield-Addison. (Link: https://hey.paris/posts/appleid/) Check out our awesome sponsors!

"The images are hacks in the first place, and it's not like Bitcoin had like a 'please put your NFT here' sign, so hackers found weird ways to do it. And if you stop them from using that weird way, they'll just do it some other weird way. And so the CAT kind of understands that and says, fine, we can't stop you from making these things and we're not going to try to stop you from making these things. Instead, we're going to disrupt your markets, disrupt the trust in your markets and remove all financial incentive to do this in the first place." ~ The Shitcoin Insider In this Chat episode with the Shitcoin Insider, we dive straight into the wild world of AI tooling, vibe coding, Bitcoin protocol design, and the new CAT proposal that has everyone fired up. We explore whether spam is actually a threat, what this new proposal would do to ordinal markets, and why the social layer of Bitcoin governance matters more than people admit. I ask what truly counts as an exploit, and whether sats can stay fungible when the market tries to make them something else. We talk about censorship, mailing list politics, and why shutting down discussion only breeds distrust. Along the way we wander into AI powered creativity, distributed databases, and the strange overlap between developers and spammers. This one is part technical deep dive, part culture critique, and part nostalgia for the Shitcoin Insider days. If you want to hear a conversation that asks uncomfortable questions and laughs at the absurdity of it all, this episode is for you. Check out our awesome sponsors!

"The broad point is that only the strong survive was correct. We are entering the endgame of crypto having any reason to exist. My thesis as to why it exists at all is a combination of a novel vector for gambling and an affinity scam. Bitcoin is extremely difficult to even begin to understand, and even though what it fundamentally 'fixes' is money printing, its novelty ironically lends itself to confusing the uninitiated and impatient with meaningless appeals to 'blockchain technology' that manifest as attempts to print money." ~ Allen Farrington In this episode I read Allen Farrington’s follow‑up to “Only the Strong Survive” and then ask a blunt question: if Bitcoin can now do everything crypto promised, does the rest of the casino have any reason to exist? Is ARKADE, Lightning, and e‑cash the real endgame for programmability and global banking on Bitcoin? Check out our awesome sponsors! Ledn: Need fiat but don’t want to sell your Bitcoin?
