TFTC: A Bitcoin Podcast

<p>Nick Nemeth returns to break down the Mark Walter and Guggenheim insurance scandal, exposing how billions in annuity and life insurance policyholder funds funded the Dodgers, Lakers, and F1 team purchases through opaque affiliate paper and shell entities. Marty and Nick dig into systemic risk across the insurance industry, the AI spending bubble, Federal Reserve policy, bond market dynamics, entitlement debt, and Bitcoin's role as a hedge against a fracturing financial system. A deep dive into contagion risk, monetary policy, and where smart money is positioning next.</p> <p>Nick on X: <a href="https://x.com/NickNemo17">https://x.com/NickNemo17</a></p> <p>The Bitcoin Playbook for Commercial Real Estate Owners & Investors: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/CRE">https://www.tftc.io/CRE</a></p> <p>STACK SATS hat: <a href="https://tftcmerch.io/">https://tftcmerch.io/</a></p> <p>Our newsletter: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/">https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/</a></p> <p>TFTC Elite (Ad-free & Discord): <a href="https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/">https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/</a></p> <p>Discord: <a href="https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT">https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT</a></p> <p>Opportunity Cost Extension: <a href="https://www.opportunitycost.app/">https://www.opportunitycost.app/</a></p> <p>Shoutout to our sponsors:</p> <p>Block:</p> <ul> <li>Cash App: For a limited time, new customers can get $21 added to their balance.

<p>Chris Drzyzga, commercial real estate broker and investor, returns to break down his new Bitcoin playbook for CRE owners and operators. Marty and Chris dig into building a three-tranche Bitcoin treasury, using Bitcoin as a fifth return driver alongside NOI growth and cap rates, tax-loss harvesting Bitcoin gains, dual-collateralized loans through Battery Finance, and mining Bitcoin for building heat.

<p>Nicolas Hulscher returns to unpack Pennsylvania's fabricated measles deaths, a federal RICO lawsuit against the American Academy of Pediatrics, and new CDC WONDER data showing over 150,000 excess cancer deaths since mRNA vaccine rollout. Hulscher breaks down 35 mechanisms linking mRNA technology to turbo cancer, the decades-long suppression of antiparasitic cancer treatments, and why ivermectin remains safer than Tylenol. The conversation closes on magnesium L-threonate research showing measurable cognitive gains in just six weeks. A hard look at vaccine safety data, medical censorship, and public health accountability.</p> <p>Nic on X: <a href="https://x.com/NicHulscher">https://x.com/NicHulscher</a></p> <p>Find the Home Mining Playbook here: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook">https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook</a></p> <p>STACK SATS hat: <a href="https://tftcmerch.io/">https://tftcmerch.io/</a></p> <p>Our newsletter: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/">https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/</a></p> <p>TFTC Elite (Ad-free & Discord): <a href="https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/">https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/</a></p> <p>Discord: <a href="https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT">https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT</a></p> <p>Opportunity Cost Extension: <a href="https://www.opportunitycost.app/">https://www.opportunitycost.app/</a></p> <p>Shoutout to our sponsors:</p> <p>Block:</p> <ul> <li>Cash App: For a limited time, new customers can get $21 added to their balance.

<p>Johann Kurtz returns to TFTC to explain why young people are broke despite rising real wages and falling unemployment. Kurtz and Marty Bent break down the measurement problem buried inside GDP and inflation data, the two-income trap, collapsing home ownership, and the real cost of living in a low-trust society. They dig into social capital, status games, the fertility collapse, and why tight-knit virtue-driven communities still produce large families. A grounded macro conversation about money, family formation, and building a life worth living.</p> <p>Johann on X: <a href="https://x.com/JohannKurtz">https://x.com/JohannKurtz</a></p> <p>Johann on Substack: <a href="https://substack.com/@becomingnoble">https://substack.com/@becomingnoble</a></p> <p>Find the Home Mining Playbook here: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook">https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook</a></p> <p>STACK SATS hat: <a href="https://tftcmerch.io/">https://tftcmerch.io/</a></p> <p>Our newsletter: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/">https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/</a></p> <p>TFTC Elite (Ad-free & Discord): <a href="https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/">https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/</a></p> <p>Discord: <a href="https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT">https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT</a></p> <p>Opportunity Cost Extension: <a href="https://www.opportunitycost.app/">https://www.opportunitycost.app/</a></p> <p>Shoutout to our sponsors:</p> <p>Block:</p> <ul> <li>Cash App: For a limited time, new customers can get $21 added to their balance.

<p>Melody Wright returns to unpack a housing market collapse accelerating faster than 2008. Foreclosure referrals are spiking 150% month over month, FHA delinquencies are climbing past 12%, and multifamily real estate securitizations are showing signs of fraud, mismarked debt, and vanishing capital. Wright and Marty dig into United Wholesale Mortgage's balance sheet troubles, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac exposure, private credit stress, commercial real estate maturity walls, and why Bitcoin remains the hedge against a monetary system built on unchecked credit creation.</p> <p>Melody on X: <a href="https://x.com/m3_melody">https://x.com/m3_melody</a></p> <p>Melody’s Substack: <a href="https://m3melody.substack.com/">https://m3melody.substack.com/</a></p> <p>Find the Home Mining Playbook here: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook">https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook</a></p> <p>STACK SATS hat: <a href="https://tftcmerch.io/">https://tftcmerch.io/</a></p> <p>Our newsletter: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/">https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/</a></p> <p>TFTC Elite (Ad-free & Discord): <a href="https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/">https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/</a></p> <p>Discord: <a href="https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT">https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT</a></p> <p>Opportunity Cost Extension: <a href="https://www.opportunitycost.app/">https://www.opportunitycost.app/</a></p> <p>Shoutout to our sponsors:</p> <p>Block:</p> <ul> <li>Cash App: For a limited time, new customers can get $21 added to their balance.

<p>Matt Dines returns to break down a week of escalating monetary chaos. Scott Bessent doubles the Treasury buyback limit to $4 billion, Stanley Druckenmiller fires a public warning shot in the Wall Street Journal, and the US-Canada trade relationship collapses into 50% tariffs. Matt maps the mechanics behind treasury auctions, yield curve defense, and the offshore dollar's unwind, then connects "Operation Economic Outcast" and Iran's oil smuggling scandal to a broader financial war. Plus tokenized securities, the stalled Clarity Act, the ARMA bill, and what Bitcoin's five-sigma candle actually signaled.</p> <p>Matt on X: <a href="https://x.com/LeveredUSTs">https://x.com/LeveredUSTs</a></p> <p>Build: <a href="https://getbuilding.com/">https://getbuilding.com/</a></p> <p>Find the Home Mining Playbook here: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook">https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook</a></p> <p>STACK SATS hat: <a href="https://tftcmerch.io/">https://tftcmerch.io/</a></p> <p>Our newsletter: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/">https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/</a></p> <p>TFTC Elite (Ad-free & Discord): <a href="https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/">https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/</a></p> <p>Discord: <a href="https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT">https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT</a></p> <p>Opportunity Cost Extension: <a href="https://www.opportunitycost.app/">https://www.opportunitycost.app/</a></p> <p>Shoutout to our sponsors:</p> <p>Block:</p> <ul> <li>Cash App: For a limited time, new customers can get $21 added to their balance.

<p>Alex Bergeron of Ark Labs joins Marty Bent to unpack the Coldcard exploit, the Boltz shutdown, and what AI-driven attacks mean for Bitcoin self-custody. Bergeron argues the maximalist dogma around trustlessness held back innovation, and that collaborative custody, covenants, and vaults are the path forward. The conversation covers Arkade's smart-signer architecture, spending policies, RFQ intents for Lightning swaps, Bitcoin-backed lending markets, and why he calls it collaborative finance instead of DeFi.

<p>Chase Koch joins Marty Bent to break down principle-based management, the operating system behind Koch Industries' 86 years and 9,000x growth. Chase explains why he stepped down as president of the fertilizer business after nine months, how comparative advantage and creative destruction shape decisions across 140,000 employees, and why sizing your bets to your knowledge beats chasing quarterly numbers. The conversation covers bottom-up AI adoption, Austrian economics, Federal Reserve overreach, motivation beyond money, and the education entrepreneurs building 5,000 new schools outside a broken K-12 system.</p> <p>Principle Driven Leader Book: <a href="https://www.principledrivenleader.com/">https://www.principledrivenleader.com/</a> </p> <p>Stand Together: <a href="https://standtogether.org/">https://standtogether.org/</a></p> <p>Find the Home Mining Playbook here: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook">https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook</a></p> <p>STACK SATS hat: <a href="https://tftcmerch.io/">https://tftcmerch.io/</a></p> <p>Our newsletter: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/">https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/</a></p> <p>TFTC Elite (Ad-free & Discord): <a href="https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/">https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/</a></p> <p>Discord: <a href="https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT">https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT</a></p> <p>Opportunity Cost Extension: <a href="https://www.opportunitycost.app/">https://www.opportunitycost.app/</a></p> <p>Shoutout to our sponsors:</p> <p>Block:</p> <ul> <li>Cash App: For a limited time, new customers can get $21 added to their balance.

<p>Marty and John dig into the Groundhog Day situation in the Strait of Hormuz, why neither side looks desperate to deal, and what rising Treasury yields with suppressed volatility mean for the standoff. They get into the SPR draining to 40-year lows, Japan's yield curve cracking and the Fed stepping in with yen support, and why the FEMA repo facility matters. They also break down the latest fiscal math, the $500 billion AI buildout coalition led by Nvidia, and the accelerating US-China decoupling across chips and talent. To close, they look at Paul Tudor Jones adding to his Bitcoin position, Abu Dhabi holding pat, and volatility coiling to all-time lows.</p> <p>🔗 <a href="https://bitcoinproducts.com">https://bitcoinproducts.com</a></p> <p>In this episode:</p> <ul> <li>Hormuz stalemate and Trump's territorial ambitions</li> <li>Iranian factions and Treasury sanctions pressure</li> <li>Treasury yields rising but MOVE index staying subdued</li> <li>SPR drained to 40-year lows</li> <li>Japan's yield curve and US yen intervention</li> <li>FEMA repo facility and Fed-Treasury coordination</li> <li>July deficit at $432 billion and interest expense surging</li> <li>Niall Ferguson and the interest versus defense threshold</li> <li>Crypto banking charters and the GENIUS Act timeline</li> <li>Dollar system transition and new collateral</li> <li>Nvidia and asset managers' $500B AI buildout</li> <li>Manufacturing PMI hitting 2022 highs</li> <li>US-China decoupling on chips and talent</li> <li>Skilled workforce shortage and wage trends</li> <li>Paul Tudor Jones increasing Bitcoin allocation</li> <li>Abu Dhabi sovereign wealth holding pat on Bitcoin</li> <li>Realized volatility at all-time lows</li> </ul> <p>TIMESTAMPS: </p> <p>00:00:00 - Dog days and Hormuz Groundhog Day </p> <p>00:01:27 - Hormuz blocked and Trump's territorial ambitions </p> <p>00:02:02 - Iranian factions and sanctions </p> <p>00:03:25 - Bond yields and the MOVE index </p> <p>00:05:29 - SPR at 40-year lows </p> <p>00:07:00 - Japan yield curve and yen intervention </p> <p>00:09:38 - FEMA repo facility </p> <p>00:11:07 - July deficit at $432 billion </p> <p>00:12:36 - Interest expense surpassing defense </p> <p>00:16:47 - Fed-Treasury accord </p> <p>00:17:41 - Crypto banking charters and GENIUS Act </p> <p>00:19:40 - AI buildout and $500 billion coalition </p> <p>00:22:55 - Manufacturing PMI surging </p> <p>00:24:46 - US-China decoupling </p> <p>00:27:21 - Skilled workforce and wage trends </p> <p>00:29:57 - Elon and midterm turnout </p> <p>00:30:00 - Paul Tudor Jones and Abu Dhabi Bitcoin </p> <p>00:30:57 - Bitcoin volatility at all-time lows</p> <p>SUBSCRIBE </p> <p>› Newsletter (free): <a href="https://tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/">https://tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/</a> </p> <p>› YouTube: <a href="https://youtube.com/@TFTC?sub_confirmation=1">https://youtube.com/@TFTC?sub_confirmation=1</a></p> <p>FOLLOW US </p> <p>› X: <a href="https://x.com/tftc21">https://x.com/tftc21</a> </p> <p>› Nostr: <a href="https://primal.net/tftc">https://primal.net/tftc</a></p> <p>FOLLOW MARTY </p> <p>› X: <a href="https://x.com/MartyBent">https://x.com/MartyBent</a></p> <p>› Timestamp: <a href="https://www.ten31timestamp.com/">https://www.ten31timestamp.com/</a> </p> <p>› John Arnold: <a href="https://x.com/JohnArnoldTen31">https://x.com/JohnArnoldTen31</a> </p> <p>› Ten31: <a href="https://ten31.xyz">https://ten31.xyz</a></p> <h1 id="tftcmartybentjohnarnoldbitcoinhormuztreasuryaimidterms">TFTC #MartyBent #JohnArnold #Bitcoin #Hormuz #Treasury #AI #Midterms</h1>

<p>Former Rasmussen pollster Mark Mitchell breaks down why Trump’s Iran pivot is tanking his populist coalition ahead of the 2026 midterms. The Honest Poll founder exposes rigged polling, GOP donor capture, ballooning deficits, and a housing market on the brink. They dig into Bitcoin as an escape hatch from fiat failure, why Gen Z is flirting with socialism, and how corporate fascism is eating the economy. With interest expense overtaking defense and Democrats poised for a House sweep, Mitchell argues the establishment is failing on every front—from antitrust grift to unchecked mail-in ballot harvesting.</p> <p>Mark on X: <a href="https://x.com/honestpollster">https://x.com/honestpollster</a></p> <p>The Honest Poll: <a href="https://www.thehonestpoll.com/">https://www.thehonestpoll.com/</a></p> <p>Find the Home Mining Playbook here: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook">https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook</a></p> <p>STACK SATS hat: <a href="https://tftcmerch.io/">https://tftcmerch.io/</a></p> <p>Our newsletter: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/">https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/</a></p> <p>TFTC Elite (Ad-free & Discord): <a href="https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/">https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/</a></p> <p>Discord: <a href="https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT">https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT</a></p> <p>Opportunity Cost Extension: <a href="https://www.opportunitycost.app/">https://www.opportunitycost.app/</a></p> <p>Shoutout to our sponsors:</p> <p>Block:</p> <ul> <li>Cash App: For a limited time, new customers can get $21 added to their balance.

<p>Will Harris of White Oak Pastures joins TFTC to break down why industrial agriculture is failing farmers, consumers, and the environment. He explains how regenerative farming rebuilds soil health, sequesters carbon, and produces nutrient-dense beef without feedlots or monocultures. Harris and Marty draw parallels between Bitcoin’s low-time-preference mindset and generational land stewardship, arguing decentralized food systems beat centralized big beef. Learn why meeting your rancher matters more than waiting for government fixes, and how consumer choice drives real change in macro food policy.</p> <p>White Oak Pastures on X: <a href="https://x.com/whiteoakpasture">https://x.com/whiteoakpasture</a></p> <p>White Oak Pastures: <a href="https://whiteoakpastures.com/">https://whiteoakpastures.com/</a></p> <p>Find the Home Mining Playbook here: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook">https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook</a></p> <p>STACK SATS hat: <a href="https://tftcmerch.io/">https://tftcmerch.io/</a></p> <p>Our newsletter: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/">https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/</a></p> <p>TFTC Elite (Ad-free & Discord): <a href="https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/">https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/</a></p> <p>Discord: <a href="https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT">https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT</a></p> <p>Opportunity Cost Extension: <a href="https://www.opportunitycost.app/">https://www.opportunitycost.app/</a></p> <p>Shoutout to our sponsors:</p> <p>Block:</p> <ul> <li>Cash App: For a limited time, new customers can get $21 added to their balance.

<p>Jessica Rose unpacks the Proximal Origin cover-up, Fauci’s leaked emails, and the rush to hide lab origins before the mRNA rollout. She breaks down Slack messages revealing scientists privately feared the furin cleavage site, exposes airport biological trafficking, and highlights DNA contamination and SV40 sequences found in COVID vaccines. The conversation dives into media censorship, presidential pardons, and why accountability matters for medical corruption and human liberty.</p> <p>Jessica on X: <a href="https://x.com/JesslovesMJK">https://x.com/JesslovesMJK</a></p> <p>Jessica on Substack: <a href="https://jessicar.substack.com/">https://jessicar.substack.com/</a></p> <p>Find the Home Mining Playbook here: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook">https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook</a></p> <p>STACK SATS hat: <a href="https://tftcmerch.io/">https://tftcmerch.io/</a></p> <p>Our newsletter: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/">https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/</a></p> <p>TFTC Elite (Ad-free & Discord): <a href="https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/">https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/</a></p> <p>Discord: <a href="https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT">https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT</a></p> <p>Opportunity Cost Extension: <a href="https://www.opportunitycost.app/">https://www.opportunitycost.app/</a></p> <p>Shoutout to our sponsors:</p> <p>Block:</p> <ul> <li>Cash App: For a limited time, new customers can get $21 added to their balance.

<p>Alex Thorn joins Marty to break down the Coldcard vulnerability draining Bitcoin wallets across multiple attack waves. Galaxy Research traces stolen on-chain funds while victims race against time to secure self-custodied BTC. They dissect AI-driven exploit patterns, white hat ethical dilemmas, casino exfiltration attempts, and why multisig collaborative custody is now essential infrastructure. Bitcoin security, private key entropy, and monetary sovereignty hang in the balance as attackers leverage frontier models against antiquated hardware. If you hold Bitcoin in cold storage, this conversation covers exactly what moves to make before your keys become the next target.</p> <p>Alex on X: <a href="https://x.com/intangiblecoins">https://x.com/intangiblecoins</a></p> <p>Galaxy: <a href="https://linktr.ee/galaxyhq">https://linktr.ee/galaxyhq</a></p> <p>Find the Home Mining Playbook here: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook">https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook</a></p> <p>STACK SATS hat: <a href="https://tftcmerch.io/">https://tftcmerch.io/</a></p> <p>Our newsletter: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/">https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/</a></p> <p>TFTC Elite (Ad-free & Discord): <a href="https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/">https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/</a></p> <p>Discord: <a href="https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT">https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT</a></p> <p>Opportunity Cost Extension: <a href="https://www.opportunitycost.app/">https://www.opportunitycost.app/</a></p> <p>Shoutout to our sponsors:</p> <p>Block:</p> <ul> <li>Cash App: For a limited time, new customers can get $21 added to their balance.

<p>Energy economist Anas Alhajji breaks down the Iran war's impact on global oil markets, Hormuz shipping risks, and diesel shortages driving inflation. He exposes demand destruction, SPR manipulation myths, and why LNG dominates the energy security chessboard. Alhajji reveals how sanctions, trade wars, and AI data centers are reshaping macro policy, commodity prices, and dollar hegemony. From Saudi export bottlenecks to European deindustrialization, this deep dive connects crude volatility to monetary policy, Bitcoin macro, and the national security case for natural gas.</p> <p>Anas on X: <a href="https://x.com/anasalhajji">https://x.com/anasalhajji</a></p> <p>Anas’s Substack</p> <p>Daily: <a href="https://afalhajji.substack.com/">https://afalhajji.substack.com/</a></p> <p>Weekly: <a href="https://anasalhajjieoa.substack.com/">https://anasalhajjieoa.substack.com/</a></p> <p>Find the Home Mining Playbook here: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook">https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook</a></p> <p>STACK SATS hat: <a href="https://tftcmerch.io/">https://tftcmerch.io/</a></p> <p>Our newsletter: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/">https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/</a></p> <p>TFTC Elite (Ad-free & Discord): <a href="https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/">https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/</a></p> <p>Discord: <a href="https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT">https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT</a></p> <p>Opportunity Cost Extension: <a href="https://www.opportunitycost.app/">https://www.opportunitycost.app/</a></p> <p>Shoutout to our sponsors:</p> <p>Block:</p> <ul> <li>Cash App: For a limited time, new customers can get $21 added to their balance.

<p>Marty sits down with developer Vinny to explore why AI agents, open source models, and permissionless protocols are converging into a new agentic economy. They unpack Buzz as a Nostr-native Slack killer, the risks of closed-source AI monopolies, and how Bitcoin Lightning enables machine-to-machine payments. From self-hosted harnesses to deterministic workflows, the conversation covers the macro shift toward decentralized intelligence, regulatory capture fears, and why Bitcoin standards like L402 matter for the future of monetary policy in an automated world. </p> <p>Vinny on X: <a href="https://x.com/hot_town">https://x.com/hot_town</a></p> <p>Vinny on YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@stealtime">https://www.youtube.com/@stealtime</a></p> <p>Vinny on Nostr: <a href="mailto:vince@getalby.com">vince@getalby.com</a> <strong>-</strong> npub1wkghz9fjpdkgwy50epxcaksqevdnrfxsj9z99pn7s2z645atrt7swscqxy</p> <p>Find the Home Mining Playbook here: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook">https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook</a></p> <p>STACK SATS hat: <a href="https://tftcmerch.io/">https://tftcmerch.io/</a></p> <p>Our newsletter: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/">https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-brief/</a></p> <p>TFTC Elite (Ad-free & Discord): <a href="https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/">https://www.tftc.io/#/portal/signup/</a></p> <p>Discord: <a href="https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT">https://discord.gg/yHGkvYxdqT</a></p> <p>Opportunity Cost Extension: <a href="https://www.opportunitycost.app/">https://www.opportunitycost.app/</a></p> <p>Shoutout to our sponsors:</p> <p>Block:</p> <ul> <li>Cash App: For a limited time, new customers can get $21 added to their balance.

<p>James O'Beirne joins Marty to break down the critical Coldcard RNG vulnerability affecting devices produced after 2021. They discuss how insufficient entropy generation exposes private keys, why MK2, MK3, MK4, and Q users must migrate funds immediately, and how AI models accelerated the discovery. The conversation covers multisig risks, passphrase limitations, dice roll safety, and the broader collapse of trust in single-vendor hardware wallets.
