The SatsMate Stack

Hey SatsMate Stackers, 

We have seen sales slow significantly across many industries across the country. Whether that is the automobile, tech, or housing industry, all have faced slowdowns before. In this podcast, I explore simple avenues that many companies can take that will stop or reduce the slowdown in sales. Specifically, I cover the following topics: 

Hi Satsmate Stackers, 

Over the past couple of decades, we have seen extreme wealth and homelessness explode. Levels of inequality haven't been this high since the Gilded Age, or since feudal Europe. This great divide is exacerbated by the Federal Reserve's money printer, and corrupt political class, and the concentration of capital with corporations. In this podcast, I go over details of homelessness, the wealthy, and further issues driving the wedge into this divide: 

Hey SatsMate Stackers, 

I hope the holidays have been treating you well! In 2026, there is a lot we can do to strengthen the asset, and in this podcast, I go over that. It is far too easy to rest on our laurels and wait for numbers to go up - we have got to do more in this new year, and I am confident that by doing each of these, we will help the network significantly in the future! 

Hey Satsmate Stackers, 

Looking back at the past 12 years of my career, I wonder whether many of the positions around me really require a bachelor's degree. For many people throughout history, they viewed a bachelor's degree was a path to making good money and securing a nice job. Nowadays, that is looking to be less and less the case, and I think that people are thinking instead about joining the trades, starting their own business, or just getting right into the workforce. In this podcast, I discuss the following and why I don't think the bachelor's degree h...

Hey Satsmate Stackers, 

Today, I am going to talk about how owning nothing and being happy is becoming true for many. In today's day and age, we are financing so much, and at the end of the day, we don't own anything. Whether it is subscribing to ten things, paying your rent/mortgage, or being stuck in a payment doom loop, many are struggling for true ownership of things. In today's podcast, I dive into this in detail. Specifically, I go over the following: 

Hi Satsmate Stackers, 

We are at that time of year when we are filled with consumerism and shopping until we drop. Countless people buy, buy, and buy because it is ingrained in the American way. In today's podcast, I am going to talk about my thoughts on Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals and what we can do this time around. Specifically, I discuss the following in detail: 

Hey Satsmate Stackers, 

We have drifted far from core values over the past couple of years. In today's podcast, I go over why we should go back to basics. Sometimes, the ways our elders and forefathers did things were the right way, and it was done for a reason. In this podcast, I will go over the following: 

Hi SatsMate Stackers, 

I like to look at the life of a famous blue-collar cartoon as a representation of the normal economy back in day. Homer was a blue-collar worker, and was able to buy a nice home and support a 4 person family on this factory job. Now a days, this would be almost impossible to do in most places around the U.S. 

It just goes to show how far the economy has changed, and in the end people are starting to lean into more gig jobs, and taking several jobs because their main jo...

Hi Satsmate Stackers, 

I hope you are having a great week so far! We don't need to look far to see that we are a nation of debt slavery. In fact, you can see how dire the situation is for yourself at the following link: https://www.usdebtclock.org/. 

Public spending is out of control, and in this podcast, I discuss ways in which we can reduce the drag of public outlays. Specifically in this podcast, I go over the key important topics: 

Hey Satsmate Stackers, 

In our society, we are at a point where rate cuts will help the rich and end up further hurting the poor. In the short term, it may provide a sigh of relief to the poor and middle class, but the asset prices of the rich will continue to melt up, further exacerbating wealth inequality. In today's podcast, I discuss the upcoming interest rate cuts and what they will do to the economy: 

Hey Satsmate Stackers, 

I hope you are doing well and having a strong start to your week! In today's podcast, I discuss the financial moves that I go against the grain on. Far too often in today's society, it is easy to fall down the path most people go down. I think on occasion, it is okay to go against the current and do things the way you see fit. Specifically, in my podcast today, I go over many things that I don't mind spending more on: 

Hey Satsmate Stackers, 

I hope you are all doing well! We have recently seen some large measures take place on the H1B program here in the U.S. With this, we will see it cost a lot more to tap into global talent, while concurrently aiming to protect U.S. jobs. I think a balanced approach must be assessed, and in this podcast I explore both sides of the argument, and present my thoughts including: 

Hey Satsmate Stackers, 

With all that is going on in the economy, the Federal Reserve is caught between a rock and a hard place. Currently, we are seeing unemployment tick higher, inflation tick higher, and rates start to come back down (short-term rates). 

In this podcast, I discuss how the FED is stuck between a rock and a hard place. We will see the situation further unravel as the months go on - but in the end, it is important to protect yourself with hard assets! 

Hi Satsmate Stackers, 

I hope you are doing well! In today's podcast, I discuss the tradeoff of outsourcing our thinking in today's day and age. 

We give up the most important thing possible: our critical thinking skills. We must use our minds, and not just hand over our thinking to an AI. Specifically in this podcast, I discuss the following important topics: 

Hi Satsmate Stackers, 

I hope you are doing well! This podcast is a little different from other ones that I have made. In this podcast, I talk about some of my views on what happened with Charlie Kirk a few days ago & the positive impact he has made on our country as a whole. Specifically, I cover the following: 

Hey Satsmate Stackers, 

You don't have to look far to see that inflation is starting to heat up, and we are now at a point in the economy where a rate cut is likely to occur in September. 

With this, we need to ask ourselves: will a rate cut further cause inflation to spiral out of control, or will we start to see the economy recover in a healthy way? 

Specifically, in this podcast, I go over important topics such as the following: 

Hey Satsmate Stackers, 

We are seeing a growing number of young people become increasingly disillusioned about their future as time goes on. Many of the youth today are turning to drugs, alcohol, dopamine addictions, and more. 

In this podcast, I discuss my thoughts on what drives the destructive habits of young people in America today, while also addressing potential solutions. 

Hey Satsmate Stackers, 

So much is happening in the economy right now, and as many have seen recently, the job numbers are not looking too hot. We have seen inflation on the rise, several months of misstated job numbers, and the Fed's decisions based on this faulty and inaccurate data. 

In times like this, I think it is key to understand we can still come out ahead, but we need to call it out and act smart. Specifically, in this podcast, I cover the following topics: 

Hey SatsMate Stackers, 

I hope you are all doing well! Wow, it is crazy to see the price get to the levels that it has so far this year. It feels great, but this podcast is my suggestion on becoming more based in our reasons on why we are getting into Bitcoin. I think many of us that are in it for the price, are out of it for the price just as quickly. I think this is why, we must buy this asset for deeper reasons than just the fiat price. 

Specifically, in this po...

Hey SatsMate Stackers, 

Many of us may sometimes feel like there isn't enough time to get ahead. To make ends meet, sometimes we must sacrifice our free time to make extra money. Unfortunately, this trap can end up being never-ending, and we cannot get our time back. 

In this podcast, I go over many things that we can do as individuals to buy back our time. Specifically, I cover the following key topics: 

Hey Satsmate Crew, 

I hope you are doing well! This podcast is a little bit different, and it goes over many of the pitfalls that successful people encounter. People work relentlessly to build an excellent career, and some can manage to get to the theoretical "top", just to end up fumbling it a few years later. In today's podcast, I go over a few of such cases, and why it is important to remain based, and keep a clean history: 

Hey Everyone, 

I just recently got back from a several-week trip across Europe (Switzerland, Germany, and the Czech Republic). Through my travels, I experienced many things that I would like to share with you, both good and bad. Travel is such an important thing to do to widen one's perspectives and experience a different culture and way of life. In this podcast, I cover many things that I have found fascinating, specifically, I go over the following: 

Hey SatsMate Stackers, 

I hope you are all doing well! For the past several weeks, I traveled to several Bitcoin conferences. In this podcast, I go over both conferences and share some of my final thoughts. Specifically, I go over the following: 

Bitcoin Vegas:

Hey Satsmate Stackers, 

We are currently going through a huge shift in how we work as a society. Robotics and AI is automating many of the tasks that we used to spend hours doing. 

I think the future of work will be more high-skilled, and a lot of the lower-skilled positions will get automated away. With that, I think it is important that we prepare ourselves and properly reskill for this ever-changing world. In this podcast, we go over the following: 

Hey SatsMate Stackers, 

Today is an enormous day in Bitcoin, as for the first time, the medium of exchange narrative is playing out in front of our very eyes in the U.S! For the longest time, many naysayers would say I can't pay for this or that with Bitcoin, but now you can! In today's podcast, I go over the following topics and why this is such an exciting day in Bitcoin! 

Hey Satsmate Stackers, 

Our system is designed to keep us trapped, complacent, and dependent on it. It wants to keep us small, non-creative, and to align with it. In this podcast, I go over a multitude of topics on things that we can do as individuals that will end up starving the system. 

Hey Satsmate Stackers, 

We've fallen into the dangerous trap of trying to impress others at the expense of our financial freedom and mental well-being. Modern consumer culture has trained us to believe that our worth is tied to the brands we wear, the cars we drive, and the experiences we share on social media. Specifically, in this podcast I go over the following topics: 

• Designer handbags often begin in sweatshops before receiving final touches in Italy to earn the "Made in Italy" label
• Over-the-top parties thrown for social media content rather than genuine celebration drain...

Hey Satsmate Stackers, 

Many gatekeepers are at the epicenter of finance and control the avenues we can invest in. While many of them may say their job is to protect us, this can also hurt our long-term gains. 

In this podcast, I discuss the freedom to invest as you choose and why Bitcoin is an important component of liberty in investment. In the end, centralized control will try to stop us, but we must speak up so more options can open up for us in investing! 

Hi Satsmate Stackers, 

The financialization of Bitcoin is well underway, and with this comes many positive developments, but I also want to point out many concerns. Several products are starting to hit the market that offer one cash if you post your bitcoin as collateral. It is important to keep in mind that this may seem good on the onset, but often there can be risks associated with debt-based products. 

In today's podcast, I go over Bitcoin-powered loans, my thoughts on them, and lastly, the pros and the cons. Specifically, I discuss the following points: 

Hi Satsmate Stackers, 

Over the past 5 years, we have seen countless SPACs rise, as it is an alternative way to raise capital. These are one of the many ways to bring a company public, and it is important to be aware of the risks before shelling out your hard earned cash on these investments. In todays podcast, I will go over the following: 

Hey Satsmate Stackers, 

We are seeing a rise in people using buy now, pay later for everyday essentials. With the significant increase in inflation, interest rates, unemployment, and potential tariffs, households are feeling more squeezed than ever. 

Many consumers are starting to realize they don't have anywhere else to turn, and are starting to finance everyday things such as fast food, groceries, or even concert tickets. This is normalizing a bad behavior, and will further stretch consumers who are already facing pressure. In today's podcast, I go over the following topics and discuss my opinion: 

Hey SatsMate Stackers, 

We have seen a pretty large uptick in the amount of gambling amongst our population over the past couple of years. As times get tough, many turn to gambling as it can offer a glimmer of hope, where often it seems like there is no way to get ahead. 

In today's podcast, I go over the following important topics as they relate to where our society is today and how gambling has increased. Specifically, I cover the following topics: 

Hey SatsMate Stackers, 

The past couple of months have been very choppy in both the stock and bitcoin markets, which may continue into the foreseeable future. 

In today's podcast, I review the importance of holding with strength and Keeping the Bitcoin buys amid a fearful environment. It isn't easy seeing one's assets take a large pullback in fiat terms, but over the long run, these scary drawdowns often prove themselves to be the best times to buy. Specifically, in this podcast, I go over the following topics: 

Hey SatsMate Stackers, 

There has been a lot of volatility in the markets lately, and with all the uncertainty regarding what is happening with the tariffs - I understand why! 

In this podcast, I review the great tariff gamble and the potential downstream implications if our government goes through these tariffs. It is important to ensure we have assets set aside and prepare ourselves 

The U.S. is currently saddled with a massive deficit—one we have little hope of repaying or climbing out from under anytime soon.

Because of this, we ne...

Hi All, 

We are currently going through a monetary reordering, and lately things have been very volatile in the market. This begs the question, what are the best ways to win or thrive during a recession? What steps can we take to position ourselves well not to take any of this on the chin if S@#! hits the fan?

In this podcast, I go over key things I have done and that I think many others should consider doing to weather and succeed a potential recession. Specifically, I go over the following: 

Hey Satsmate Stackers, 

Wow, there has been alot of turmoil in the markets lately! The root cause for this has been because of tariffs, uncertainty, and general concern for the overall state of the economy. Many large institutions are predicting a recession, and so people are starting to allocate to cash and other safe havens to avoid loss of assets. 

In this podcast, I go over the following important topics which cover the recession, and general uncertainty in the market. 

Hey SatsMate Stackers, 

I hope you all have had a great past week! The price has been chopping sideways in the wear-you-out, shake-you-out kind of market. While this has been causing short-term pain, oftentimes, these moments when others are fearful is the best times to assess getting into a position. 

In today's podcast, I talk about why not investing in Bitcoin could mean that one is getting left behind. Specifically, in this podcast, I go over the following important points: 

Hey Satsmate Stackers, 

Over the past couple of weeks, we have seen many indications from our government on what the future could hold for stable coins. With this, stable coins will help usher in more digital finance in the 21st century and position the U.S. as a digital asset leader. 

With all this going on, the main question many people have over the next couple of months is: What are the next plans for stablecoins? Specifically, in this video, I go over the following important topics: 

Hi Satsmate Stackers! 

We are living in an age when many traditional finance folks will advise their clients on Bitcoin in an effort to help capture the upside potential in the bull market to come. 

In this podcast, I go over the following topics, but I also try to shed light on the historical aspects of why many advisors have cold feet when recommending this asset. Specifically, I go over the following: 

What's Up SatsMate Stackers! 

Something I'm passionate about is sharing insights on finance, economics, and Bitcoin with the world. Several years ago, I dove into YouTube, eagerly creating videos I loved. From 2020 to 2021, it was a blast—connecting globally and sharing my thoughts. But the algorithm pushed me into a corner, prioritizing price predictions over authenticity, and I realized I was compromising my values for views.  

In this episode, I share why I left YouTube for podcasting, where I can speak freely and stay true to myself. Authenticity matters more than ever in t...

Hi Everyone, 

Welcome to The SatsMate Stack! We’re living in an era of fiscal tightening and a reality check on asset prices in 2025, following years of nonstop money printing from 2020 to 2021 and a decade of near-zero interest rates (ZIRP). In this episode, I dive into the key recession risks for 2025 and share my proven strategies for preparing financially. With many Americans struggling amid soaring inflation and the rising cost of living—think sky-high prices for eggs, cars, lending rates, and assets—it’s tougher than ever to afford basics. Income stagnation, as highlighted on wtfhappened1971.com, adds to t...

Hey SatsMate Stackers,

I'm glad to be back posting about Bitcoin, finance, and the broader economy. I've come to self-reflect that this is something I am very passionate about and want to keep doing! We are witnessing a lot of bullish things happening on the institutional side of Bitcoin over the past couple of months. I think this broader acceptance will be very bullish for Bitcoin over the coming year, and with that, we will see broader user adoption & more accommodative finance solutions. 

In this podcast, I go over some bullish news from the OCC, a...

Hi All, 

The FED recently came out with a pretty damning paper on Bitcoin as it relates to the U.S. government's budget deficits and bitcoin. Essentially they were saying if Bitcoin does its thing, the U.S. government won't be able to run budget deficits anymore. 

Essentially, the government is proposing a ban or a high tax, because they want to keep the power of the money printer and don't want to run balanced budgets, or budget surpluses! 

In this podcast, I go over the following important topics, namely: 

Hey All, 

Not too long ago we saw the ECB come out with a damning whitepaper on the distributional consequences of Bitcoin. It is funny how many of these bankers historically have called it a scam, now come out crying how it is a threat to the new world order's financial system. 

I see this as a big win for bitcoin, because even the smarter central bankers are starting to see the writing on the wall. That doesn't mean that we can rest on our laurels. In this podcast, I discuss the following important topics: 

Hi SatsCrew, 

We are just a few weeks out from the election and now more than ever, it is important to get out and vote to save this country. In this podcast, I will talk about the following: 

Hey All, 

It is crazy to see what is happening with our food supply chains across the country right now. We are getting poisoned now, and I don't see any urgency to get this fixed. It is getting sad in our country that we are at a point where we can't trust our food supply due to listeria outbreaks. Still, furthermore, the food that isn't infected with listeria is in tons of preservatives and cancer-causing carcinogens. In today's podcast, I go over the following important topics, and really try to drive the point home that we must b...

Hi All, 

There has been a crazy runup in the price of MicroStrategy over the past couple of weeks and I think it is important to look at it through an honest and objective lens. In this podcast, I go over Microstrategy, my thoughts on what is giving it the premium, my personal view, and If I am allocated.

Hi Sats Crew,

Now more than ever we can see our government deliberately trying to negatively impact those trying to help. We all know the government is extremely inefficient, it is filled with bureaucracy and red tape and lastly, they aim to virtue signal. There are countless things I can go over, but in today's podcast, I stick to what has been happening with the past hurricanes, and how bitcoin is well-positioned to go around government control to help people who need it. 

Hey Satscrew, 

I recently stumbled upon a show that really is getting me to think in a more open and honest way about how the world works. It is challenging almost all of the misconceptions I have about money, finance, and business. 

The show is called Undercover Billionaires (I highly recommend everyone give it a watch)! At the end of the day, many of us are trying to make the most of our lives, and this show demonstrates that with the right grit, perseverance, and skills one can "make it" in a short period of ti...

Hey All, 

We have seen extreme market volatility over the past few days! A lot of this has had to do with the Japanese Carry Trade, but more importantly, many things are all coming to a head all at once in the global markets. 

We must prepare ourselves on the upside and downside as we ultimately don't know where we are headed. We do know eventually the money printer will come back on and cause risk markets to break all-time highs all over again. 

We will either die by fire or ice, and we...

Hey Satscrew, 

I find it very interesting over the past couple of years different people's opinions on bitcoin have shifted more positively or negatively based on their understanding of the asset. 

Many that have grown up with financial privilege, often don't come to see the benefit of bitcoin - as the system has always treated them fairly and well enough. 

Many around the world have been denied access to bank accounts or other financial products, and nearly immediately they can recognize the benefit of this asset. 

In today's podcast, I go over...

What is Up Sats Crew, 

I enjoy networking with normal people in society and recently I went to lunch with a coworker and got into some great discussions surrounding cybersecurity, finance, economics, the BIS, and Bitcoin. 

Throughout this lunch, we had a great talk on economics, but near the end of the lunch, he mentioned that the reason he doesn't get into Bitcoin is because the NSA created it. I found this interesting, and he wasn't able to back it up too well. Throughout this podcast I go over the following: 

What is Up SatsCrew, 

Recessions are like controlled burns where they may be uncomfortable to have at first, but it is a necessity for stronger and more long-term sustainable growth. 

With the extreme heating up of the economy over the past several years, we are overdue for a reset back to reality. In today's podcast, I go over the tightening economic conditions impacting many important companies such as Nike, Starbucks, and more. Specifically, I cover: 

Hey SatsCrew, 

You don't have to look far to realize that in our current society, we have rent seekers far in wide across all industries. Rent seekers get to positions where they can exploit the efforts of others, and once they do this they milk it for as long as they can. 

They often don't add much value in these rent-seeking positions and are bureaucrats through and through. In the U.S. we have far too many in this parasitic class extracting value from the true creators, workers, and those trying to improve the system fo...

Whats Up Everyone, 

Stacker News is a platform that enhances community discussions on economics, bitcoin, and other financial topics.  In a day and age where there are alot of rules and censorship on mainstream platforms, it is a breath of fresh air to see Stacker News (SN) be an avenue for people to speak freely and be part of the value for value movement. 

The community, the content, and the zapping all make SN for a top-notch experience. In today's podcast, I go over what it is, and why I recommend you should try it out...

Hey SatsCrew, 

There is a famous saying "To improve is to change to be perfect is to change often". This saying is by Winston Churchill, and while I strongly believe it applies to many tech startups around the world, I don't think it applies to Bitcoin. 

It is of great importance to calculate the change made, and that the change is slow. On higher levels of Bitcoin fast change is okay, but on the base layer - we won't slow change as we want to preserve the value to the best of our abilities. In to...

What is Up SatsCrew, 

Today is a pretty big day when it comes to world monetary policy. Javier Milei, Argentina's recently elected president has signaled that he will support a Free Market of Currencies! 

This is enormous news because it isn't something we have seen a lot of in the past century. This free market of currencies will mean there will be competition, and the currency won't be ordered by government decree. 

It is an exciting step in the right direction for a country that has suffered from high inflation and economic instability for...

What is up SatsCrew, 

Many people are trying to imagine how the future would look like if the world was on a Bitcoin standard. If this were the case, we would all have wallets and would be able to transact with lightning on L2s & above. 

When you go to a grocery store, to get your hair cut or pay the landscaper - all would be willing to accept their services in satoshis. Maybe a gallon of milk will be 750 sats, a landscaper's service will cost 7,000 sats and to cut your hair it will be 3,000 sa...

Hey All, 

We don't need to look far to see that Americans nowadays are flush with consumerism, credit, and debt. Our culture feeds off of debt insatiably, and often we fill up our homes, closets, and extra storage units with things that we don't need. 

 Over the past decade or so, the minimalism movement has made strides to help individuals find ways to reduce consumption and live in a bare-bones way. With consumerism rampant in our culture, it often is difficult to be the exception and move away from this trap. In today's podcast, I dis...

Hey SatsCrew, 

So exciting to be alive right now, because now more than ever we can receive bitcoin for pretty much everything we do. Whether you are playing games, streaming, YouTubing, podcasting, doing surveys, or walking - you can always be earning sats. 

What is so great about this is these sats can easily be paid out via lightning at no cost and at any time. To be fair, this isn't a large sum of money - but it is something that I otherwise would be doing, so to earn sats doing so is pretty co...

Hey All, 

We have seen over the past couple of decades men's purpose has started to diminish. Men are choosing to leave the country, get addicted to drugs, become consumed with video games, or worse find a way out. 

The reason why so many are deciding to give up is they often don't see a path towards a better future. Many opportunities around us are evaporating, and it is easy to see why people are throwing in the towel. While I understand it, I don't think it is the right approach. Life is too short to...

Hey All, 

The current administration has been outright against all things Bitcoin/Digital Assets. I think the evils in this world understand the power that Bitcoin can give the individual, and if we have powerful citizens, then they won't be submissive to the government. The government will always try to do everything it can to further inch its control on others. I hope we see privacy layers above Bitcoin win out, but also be a country where we can attract the best and the brightest. 

Our future as a country depends on this! The alternative is...

Hey Satsmate Crew, 

It is not surprising what is happening right now, but we are seeing a clear case be made that many banks are on the brink of an insolvent collapse. The FDIC recently came out with a statement that 63 lenders are at risk of insolvency. 

What is insane to think about is how could we have arrived at this point. Was this done purposefully, or was this a mistake? I think the incentives of the system are incorrectly constructed and because of that self-interested actors & short-term incentives are what is running the system.  Duration: 00:14:45

Hey SatsCrew, 

We see material weakness in many businesses across the U.S. from a retail standpoint. A lot of discretionary products right now are not selling well at all, and because of this we are seeing companies like Dicks, Best Buy, Bass Pro Shops, and many more suffer because the consumer is sick. 

The consumer is pretty much all tapped out from every angle because of inflation, slowing job increases, and more. In this podcast I dive into what I see as the current recession right now, where it is hitting the hardest - an...

Hey Satscrew, 

We are starting to witness game theory play out right in front of us! It is beautiful to see companies worldwide trying to position their portfolio in a way of strength with a hard asset that can't be debased. It is well understood that fiat can be printed to infinity, and it is also well understood that bitcoin is finite. Many companies, individuals, and nation-states alike are starting to question why one would not trade something that can be printed in infinity for something finite.  

In this podcast, I go over the important co...

Hey SatsCrew,

We are living in a world where more and more people are getting deeper into debt, while concurrently commodity asset prices are surging in an illustrative manner. 

Over the better part of the past century, we have been living in a fiat experiment due to the creation of the Federal Reserve Bank. From our view, we are at the end times of this fiat experiment and many are realizing what is money, and if fiat does have value due to the decree by the government. 

Times are getting harder for many, gr...

Hey SatsCrew, 

I'm sure many of you have heard the saying "Stay humble and stack sats". This is a popular phrase among the Bitcoin community over the past several years because of the amount of people out there trying to do things in a way that could be obnoxious, drive attention, and live a life without humility. 

In this podcast, I go into the criticality of living by this motto - and always seeking to increase our sat position more tomorrow than today.  In this podcast, I go over several important topics that I'm sure we...

Hey SatsCrew, 

You go to many countries around the world and notice not a lot of people have debt. There are some edge and fringe cases, but the majority tend to pay things with cash every step of the way. 

Why is it in our Western U.S. society that we are so driven to go deeper and deeper into debt? Everything one can think about has been completely financialized - and it is leading to more and more people getting into positions that are hard to get out of. 

We spend so muc...

Hey SatsCrew, 

The government-issued statistics from the BLS (Bureau of Labor Statistics) are a complete joke & lie. Constantly hedonic adjustments are being made the hide the true reality of the inflation we are seeing in the country.  

They fool us into thinking prices rise by x+1 when they rise by x+5. The unfortunate reality is that we make decisions with this data that don't fully protect us, and we can see the true reality of the situation with our own eyes. 

Hey Satscrew, 

We are seeing an insane reality currently where Biden and many democrats are standing against an asset that is supposed to democratize finance and the global financial system. 

The very people who seek to help the poor and middle class are turning their shoulders on people who are trying to capture value in a permissionless, digital, and non-debasable way. 

In today's podcast, I go over why I think Biden taking an anti-bitcoin stance will end up costing him the election (despite all of his other issues). 

Hey Everyone, 

More and more the stock market resembles a casino than it represents a place of steady investment based on logic and fundamentals. I am completely for people making a buck, and nowadays we see stocks get short-squeezed just because their balance sheet is a joke. 

In today's podcast, I go over my thoughts on the entire thing, and how I am approaching it. I hope you enjoy - and remember not to take life too seriously, but be careful about these investments. 

Hey SatsCrew, 

Things are getting interesting as it comes to the Biden administration and loans. The socialist and democratic party seems to be trying to bribe the populace into voting for them, by forgiving loans and other debts. 

While I can go on and on about the problems our society faces as it comes to how we have gotten into this mess, I can assure you one of the worst ways out of this mess is through government intervention. Paying off these loans will further divide our society as it can create a huge moral ha...

Hey SatsCrew, 

In today's podcast, I explore an important topic - family & finances. I think in our day and age, it is getting tougher and tougher to get ahead, while concurrently expenses on alot of our favorite things keep adding up. 

Today, I explore situations in which I believe you should lend family members money, and also discuss why it may not be the best idea. In the end, we want to be there for our family & support them in every way we can, but we also want to teach them to fish and make th...

Hey All, 

During the past several years, the Biden administration has been relentless on crypto and focused on enforcement, rather than sensible regulation. 

Meanwhile, they turned a blind eye to SBF during the FTX fiasco. Now more than ever we need to vote for Trump (or even Kennedy) as it comes closer to the election our option is only Trump. 

In this podcast, I discuss important topics like the following in detail: 

Hey SatsCrew, 

I hope you are all doing well. We are starting to witness the phase-out of cash and other physical forms of payments before our very eyes. Many places/restaurants won't accept cash, and some places won't accept bills larger than twenties. 

There are even some merchants who won't provide change in certain cases (coinage). All of these efforts are aimed at reducing our ability to transact anonymously. In this podcast, I explore Bitcoin & the CBDC world. If CBDCs are rolled out, can't the government make it so you can't transact with Bitcoin? I ex...

Hey SatsCrew, 

Over the past few years, I have diligently studied Bitcoin and macroeconomics to prepare myself for the worst-case scenario - an economic depression or economic recession. 

In our society, we must not jump down the typical consumerism rabbit hole and prepare ourselves for financial hard times/difficulties. 

One thing that has helped me personally is buying Bitcoin and keeping a level head with my investing strategy. In this podcast, I discuss important points such as the following: 

Hey SatsCrew, 

We are starting to experience hints of stagflation, increased unemployment, and slower economic conditions. 

When we start to see these slowing economic conditions, it is important to stay alert on things to do to optimize our position during the impending storm. 

While my situation isn't perfect, and there are other things you should consider doing beyond this shortlist, in today's podcast I go over things that I am confident will help me weather the storm. 

Ultimately, we want to be prepared so we aren't unprepared when the tide goes out...

Hey SatsCrew, 

Over the past day, it has been very difficult to see what is happening to Bitcoin Self-Custody. At the end of the day, we should have rights to our financial sovereignty. 

We are seeing time and time again the government's scope creeps more and more into the surveillance state that will reduce or eliminate American freedoms, while concurrently giving more and more power to the U.S. government. 

In this podcast, I try to explore what is happening to our ecosystem, and the downstream impacts of what this means to individuals.

Hey SatsCrew, 

You don't have to look far to see the outright dystopian our country has been becoming over the past couple of years. It seems only to be getting worse and worse, with more freedoms being eroded & socialist policies being introduced. 

In today's podcast, I talk about the new outrageous capital gains bill that will severely damage individuals trying to make a little extra in the market, but also be that further scope creeps into our freedoms as Americans. 

In today's podcast, I review the following important topics to spur thought, and dis...

Hey SatsCrew, 

There are countless things we can do to set ourselves up for success to avoid falling victim to bad financial decisions. 

There are many things we can do to lay the groundwork to being financially prepared and in this podcast I aim to do just that. 

Specifically, I go over important topics like the following: 

What is up Sats Crew, 

It isn't easy out on the job market right now. Even if you do land yourself a nice job, often the spigot will dry up eventually when the business changes and things get shaken up. 

I for one experienced a rough experience when it comes to being out of work. Once I was out of work for a while, it was extremely hard to get back in the groove again. My confidence was down, I felt deflated, and hours would go by being alone with my thoughts. 

While I d...

Hey SatsCrew, 

I hope you are all doing well. It is crazy and unfortunate to see what is happening in Canada now. I have been following Canada closely for years, and by the looks of it - it seems like bodily autonomy, housing, interest rates, immigration, and taxes are getting worse. 

At this point, Canada appears to be another Marxist country on the decline - with no end in sight. In this podcast, I go over several important topics regarding Canada, the potential fate of us, and more. Specifically, I explore: 

Hey Sats Crew, 

In today's podcast, I go off on how we are being lied to about prices in our system. I know we have hit this topic several times over the past couple of months - it is getting worse and not better. 

I hope everyone listens to this and has the empathy to understand people who can't protect themselves from inflation due to lack of knowledge, or lack of earning ability. Many people get left behind when things inflate the way that they are. 

In today's podcast, I try to dive int...

Hey Sats Crew, 

I like many today am so wrapped up in the quick dopamine hits from social media, video games, salty snacks, and other euphoric forms of media/entertainment. 

I've come to recognize that many of these things are good to me, but just because they are good to me, doesn't mean they are good for me. As I get older I realize I tend to shift towards habits and activities that are fun and easy - but oftentimes don't yield the best long-term outcomes. 

In the end, I think most of us...

Hey Sats Crew, 

It is important to be prepared in case something bad happens domestically. Whether it is an earthquake, tornado, EMP, or something worse - it never hurts to be prepared and have a plan of action, alongside resources, food, and water. 

In today's podcast, I talk about what I am doing and why it's good to have options during these times. Specifically, I go over important points like: 

Hey Sats Crew, 

You don't have to look far to realize our system is meant not to protect the individual, and often it is here to protect wealthy CEOs, and bureaucrats - the new oligarchs of the U.S. 

It is sad how many times I have been screwed over by our insurance system - and in the end, I've come to realize what do we need to opt into this system? Those who don't have insurance don't get arrested, get to walk away free and often don't need to have any responsibility. This podcast go...

How is the Sats Crew Doing Today? 

We need to take a step back and appreciate that in the U.S. we have a decent amount of consumer protections and some cybersecurity protections. 

In many places around the world, they have none of that. If you are cleared out - you are cleared out. I think in our lives, we need to attempt to take self-custody of our gold, silver or bitcoin. 

In the end, we need to look out for ourselves. We can't lean on any "trusted" third party or stuff like thi...

What's up Sats Crew, 

Today I was shocked to find out we are seeing more Americans than ever living paycheck to paycheck. It already was pretty bad at the 50% range, but now we are seeing this surpass 60%+. 

With all the conditions in today's economy, you don't have to look far to see what is causing all this to happen. Like a junkie addicted to drugs, the U.S. has been addicted to cheap credit for some time now. Reality is starting to set in for many Americans... In today's podcast, I go over how these st...

Hey SatsCrew, 

Currently, we are witnessing the housing market get to a point where it is affordable to almost everyone who isn't paying cash. 

These prices in line with these interest rates make it almost impossible to buy at this time. 

In today's podcast, I try to dive into a recent Axios article that was published about sacrifices people are making for home ownership. 

What is Up Sats Crew, 

Gold, silver, and many other commodities have been pumping over the past several days. I think this is a sign of the times seeing people move to things that aren't fake, that can't be debased and manipulated. 

If you look at Costco, they recently rolled out gold bars and are selling approximately $100-200M per month. One of the factors I believe is leading to prices pumping in commodities is people are not wanting to throw money into stocks, crypto, or real estate, or keep it in cash right now.  Duration: 00:11:14

Whats up SatsCrew! 

I can't believe my eyes on what we are witnessing concerning Boeing planes over the past couple of months. We see doors/pins/bolts and engine covers come off mid-air. We are seeing major turnover in executive leadership and a rise in Diversity, Equity, and inclusion as it comes to hiring. 

The question now is, what can be done to solve this, but what the root of all these errors is in the first place? It is crazy to think that we are living in the year 2024 and we have quality and st...

What is Up Sats Crew, 

We currently are witnessing more and more authoritarian activity all around the world, and even in countries that are developed/developing. 

Unfortunately, as time goes on this doesn't fade away - rather it keeps growing because as long as we are alive there will always be authoritarian dictators trying to assert dominance over other countries, their money & of course their people. 

In today's podcast, I discuss important topics about how NOSTR and Bitcoin can help fix many of the issues we are witnessing in Brazil. These topics include: 

What's up Sats Crew! 

Words can't express how crazy things are getting now. We are starting to see the FED get caught between two bad places, and meanwhile the everyday working man is feeling the pain. 

I think it is important that individuals protect themselves now more than ever, and this video is a call to action to study Bitcoin. The FED has proven time and time again that decisions they make end up negatively impacting many of us. In this video, I discuss the following important topics: 

-FED is between a rock and...

Hello SatsMate Crew! 

Like many of you, I've had a Bitcoin story over the past decade where I heard about it, moved on, heard about it, and bought a tiny amount, and moved on. It never really stuck with me until around 2020 and I went down the rabbit hole. In today's podcast, I go over my story with Bitcoin, and the things that finally got me to understand it on a deeper level. Specifically, I go over: 

- It became legal tender in El Salvador Around 2021
- Traveling to El Salvador and seeing how it...

What's Up SatsMate Crew, 

Over the past decade, my fiance and I have driven old beaters as a way to save money and optimize our investing future. This has been a great decision because we don't have as much overhead as others when it comes to investing for our future. In this podcast, I go over the following important topics: 

 - My Philosophy on Cars
-  It could be gone in an instant
-  The overhead on cars
-  What most people do when it comes to cars
-  The law of trad...

What is up SatsMate Crew, 

In the end, we need to know that when it comes to retirement, we need to look out for ourselves when it comes to saving and investing. There won't be anybody giving us a handout in our golden years, rather we need to put up the work and investments when we are young, healthy, and capable. 

In today's podcast, I go over the following topics and dive into my lines of thought surrounding this topic. 

- Retirement and associated cons 
- Pension and the cons associated
- So...

Hello SatsMate Crew, 

We are seeing the euphoria increasing as prices get higher in Bitcoin and crypto as a whole. 

People naturally are drawn into the gains, and many people start to question why can't other coins flip or pass Bitcoin up. In today's podcast, I try to discuss these points and lay out why this isn't as viable. 

-It happens every day when new projects come out
-The concept is pure, as with other coins, founders dump bags on retail
-Countless attempts to recreate Bitcoin
-Nobody stops you from cre...

What's up SatsMate Listeners! 

Nothing is too surprising here regarding the passing of the latest spending bill of the $1.2T Spending Package! While it is unfortunate, in today's podcast I go over potential solutions and lines of thought we want to accustom ourselves to. 

In this podcast specifically, I go over the important talking points of: 

-When will the madness of spending end?
-The government is now funded until 10/1/2024, kicking the can down the road
-They say neither side got what they wanted, but in reality, they got what they wanted, the...

What's up, Everyone, 

Countries around the world are adopting Bitcoin at a faster rate than the U.S. from a merchant point and why is that? In today's podcast, I try to explore reasons why this is happening including: 

- Tax Rules, Tax Rules, Tax Rules
-  A  starter kit for those who want things 
- Questions on questions despite a sea of resources out there
- Individuals don't know many things like the marketing, tax implications, technology, and regulatory implications
- Cash on hand to meet operating expenses (Needs to be a...

What's Up, Everyone!? 

We just entered this huge hype cycle a few short years ago and are now hearing all about it! People are making a lot of money on extremely speculative plays and it is causing more and more people to fall for the hype and enter risky bets. 

In today's podcast, I will discuss these important topics: 

- Terra Luna experienced losing all my money
- Being in crypto to make a quick buck
- Office normies being up several hundred percent on certain investments
- Certain people inv...
