Taking Care of Bitcoin with Gabriel Bloyd

Bitcoin, Debasement, and Self-Custody: A Newcomer Conversation with Gabriel Bloyd

TCB speaks with Bitcoin newcomer Gabriel Bloyd, a married father of four who first heard about crypto in 2014–2015 from a high-school friend. Bloyd asks how Bitcoin’s easy cross-border transfer and fixed supply affect governments, taxation, and a dollar he sees as losing value. The host argues U.S. monetary debasement is inevitable due to compounding debt and deficits, claims the dollar has lost over 99% of its value since 1913, and frames Bitcoin as a jurisdiction-less, uncensorable asset that enables capital to “exit,” forcing governments into competition. They discuss Bitcoin’s volatility versus long-term trends, dollar-cost averaging, and why timing trades fails. The host recommends learning before investing, experimenting with small transactions, and explains custodial exchanges versus self-custody, suggesting Strike and the Muun wallet, plus books like Economics in One Lesson, The Price of Tomorrow, and The Bitcoin Standard.

Taking Care of Bitcoin with David Biles

Taking Care of Bitcoin with David Biles!

Housing, Inflation, and Sound Money

TCB talks with David Biles, who says he’s new to economics but thinks deeply about money, housing, and broader impacts. They discuss why housing has been treated as an appreciating asset and connect rising prices across industries to currency debasement from ongoing money printing tied to U.S. debt and deficits. The host explains Bitcoin’s origin after the 2008 crisis, its fixed 21 million supply enforced by decentralized consensus, and why users are disincentivized from changing issuance. They cover Bitcoin’s volatility as a global price-discovery process, its competition with store-of-value assets like gold, bonds, real estate, and currencies, and potential upside if it captures parts of that market. They also discuss divisibility into satoshis, payments via the Lightning Network, merchant fee savings versus Visa, Square/Block enabling adoption, global usage, and Bitcoin’s benefits for censorship resistance and portability.

TCB Short - Isn't Volatility a Problem for Bitcoin?

Tue, 14 Jul 2026 06:00:00 -0600

Today we answer the question: Isn't Volatility a Problem for Bitcoin?

Is Bitcoin Volatility a Problem—or Proof It’s Still Monetizing?

TCB argues that Bitcoin’s volatility is not evidence it is failing as money, but evidence it is still monetizing through global price discovery. Comparing Bitcoin to mature systems like the U.S. dollar is framed as like comparing a startup to a Fortune 500 company; a better comparison is early-stage monetary goods such as gold or emerging national currencies. Bitcoin is described as naturally volatile because its supply is permanently fixed at 21 million, so price—not supply—must adjust to changes in demand, like a never-ending global auction. As adoption grows, liquidity deepens, and markets become more efficient, volatility should gradually decline, which the script says has broadly happened over Bitcoin cycles. It distinguishes short-term price stability from long-term purchasing power, suggests dollars may remain transactional money while Bitcoin serves as long-term savings, and outlines money’s progression from store of value to medium of exchange to unit of account.

TCB Short - Won't Bitcoin Fall into a Deflationary Spiral?

Tue, 23 Jun 2026 06:00:00 -0600

Today we answer the question: Won't Bitcoin Fall into a Deflationary Spiral?

Will Bitcoin Trigger a Deflationary Spiral?

Productivity, Inflation, and AI Abundance

TCB addresses the objection that Bitcoin would cause a deflationary spiral by encouraging hoarding, arguing instead that deflation is often the natural result of free-market productivity gains. It distinguishes “bad deflation” from collapsing credit (e.g., debt crises) versus “good deflation” from innovation and efficiency, noting consumers still spend due to positive time preference. The speaker claims inflation and monetary expansion prevent consumers—especially the working class—from fully receiving productivity benefits, shifting gains toward early recipients of new money via the Cantillon effect. With AI potentially becoming a major deflationary force by automating cognition and driving near-zero marginal costs, the debt-based system may face stress as prices fall faster than policymakers can inflate. Bitcoin is presented as fixed-supply “monetary ruler” that reveals abundance and enables purchasing power to rise, posing a choice between greater intervention/centralization and monetary realignment.

Bitcoin, AI, and the Future of Money with Cale McQuitty

TCB talks to Cale McQuitty, a Houston-based fabrication company co-owner who has pivoted into data centers, about how he first encountered Bitcoin, moved past “get rich quick” impressions, and came to see it as a mix of money, technology, and a network. They discuss institutional and nation-state involvement (including ETFs and a U.S. Bitcoin reserve holding confiscated BTC), Bitcoin’s roles as store of value and settlement layer, and how AI could be deflationary while debt-driven fiat systems require inflation. They explore risks such as government crackdowns and quantum computing, arguing Bitcoin is highly secure and adaptable. They also cover mining’s difficulty adjustment, hash rate impacts from AI/data centers, grid “buyer of last resort” dynamics, merchant adoption, and the idea that Bitcoin adoption happens “gradually, then suddenly.”

TCB Short - Won't the Finite Amount of Bitcoin Be a Limitation?

Thu, 21 May 2026 06:00:00 -0600

Today we answer the question: Won't the Finite Amount of Bitcoin Be a Limitation?

Is Bitcoin’s Fixed 21M Supply a Limitation? Divisibility, Deflation, and Sound Money

TCB addresses the criticism that Bitcoin’s fixed 21 million supply can’t support a global economy, arguing scarcity is central to its value and prevents inflation by governments and central banks. It explains Bitcoin’s post-2008 origins, Satoshi’s genesis-block message about bank bailouts, its transparent issuance schedule, and that new Bitcoin ends around 2140. The host says economies grow through productivity and innovation, not money printing, and notes Bitcoin’s divisibility into 100 million satoshis (2.1 quadrillion sats), with potential to subdivide further. The script argues fiat inflation masks natural deflation from technological progress, distorts incentives toward speculation and debt, and shortens time horizons, while sound money would improve economic signals, encourage selective spending, saving, and long-term planning. It also distinguishes finite supply from scalability, citing layered systems like Lightning for higher transaction throughput.

TCB Short - Does Bitcoin Unfairly Benefit Early Adopters?

Thu, 07 May 2026 06:00:00 -0600

Today we answer the question, Does Bitcoin Unfairly Benefit Early Adopters?

TCB argues that criticism of Bitcoin “unfairly” enriching early adopters reflects a double standard, since early investors in companies like Amazon or Apple are celebrated. It claims fairness is about equal opportunity, and Bitcoin was broadly accessible with no gatekeepers, minimums, or insider rounds; it was “ignored,” not hidden, because understanding it requires effort and contrarian conviction. The speaker contrasts this with the post-1971 fiat system, citing widening inequality and a Federal Reserve balance sheet expansion from about $900B in 2008 to over $9T, where new money reaches banks and markets first, inflating assets while wages lag. Bitcoin is presented as fixed-supply, transparent, and non-preferential, and still “early” given limited global ownership and a small ~$1.5T size versus a roughly $1 quadrillion global store-of-value market.

TCB Short - Is Bitcoin a Ponzi Scheme?

Fri, 17 Apr 2026 06:00:00 -0600

Today we answer the question: Is Bitcoin a Ponzi Scheme?

TCB examines the claim that Bitcoin is a Ponzi scheme and argues instead that the modern fiat monetary system more closely matches Ponzi characteristics. It defines a Ponzi scheme by five traits: a central operator, promised returns, paying old investors with new investor money, lack of transparency, and dependence on constant inflows. It then compares these to government finance, describing permanent deficits, ever-expanding debt rolled over with new debt, and central banks creating money to buy debt when demand weakens—requiring continuous inflows and sustained confidence while diluting savings through inflation and benefiting insiders. By contrast, it argues Bitcoin has no central operator, promises no returns, has transparent on-chain transactions, cannot be printed beyond 21 million, and the network operates regardless of price or new participants.

TCB Short - Is Bitcoin a Bubble?

Thu, 02 Apr 2026 06:00:00 -0600

Today we answer the question: Is Bitcoin a Bubble?

TCB argues that Bitcoin is often labeled a bubble, but true bubbles don’t solve problems and, after collapsing, don’t recover (as with 1637 tulip mania). While Bitcoin is highly volatile and has repeated 70–80% drawdowns, it has historically rebounded to higher lows and driven stronger infrastructure, suggesting price discovery rather than a permanent collapse. The speaker claims the deeper “bubble” is the fiat monetary system, which is structurally dependent on perpetual debt and money creation, citing U.S. metrics such as ~$39T national debt, ~$200T unfunded liabilities, 120% debt-to-GDP, ~$2T annual deficits, and ~ $1T/year interest costs. Bitcoin is presented as an alternative: fixed 21M supply, no central authority, predictable rules, and resistance to inflation, confiscation, and censorship.

TCB Short - Can Bitcoin Become Worthless?

Fri, 13 Mar 2026 06:00:00 -0600

Today we answer the question: Can Bitcoin Become Worthless?

We examine whether Bitcoin can become worthless, defining worthless as when no one subjectively sees value in something. We argue that historically money becomes worthless mainly through uncontrolled supply expansion and inflation—citing Weimar, Zimbabwe, Venezuela, and noting the U.S. dollar has lost 97% of its purchasing power since 1913 alongside roughly 1000x money-supply growth. Bitcoin was designed to remove this failure mode with a fixed 21 million supply and a known issuance schedule that governments and central banks cannot change, making inflationary collapse structurally impossible. We say Bitcoin would instead need the network to stop functioning, its security to fail (e.g., quantum threats or a sustained 51% attack), or global demand to disappear. We claim these are unlikely given Bitcoin’s distributed design, high uptime, rising hash rate, evolving protocol, and growing adoption driven by scarcity, censorship resistance, borderless transfer, and predictable policy.

TCB Re-Hash with Matt Marfil: Volatility, Self-Custody, ETFs, and Fiat Debasement

Today we revisit Matt Marfil, three and a half years after our November 2022 talk near Bitcoin’s ~$15,700 low, discussing its rise to 126k and pullback to 60k. Matt still views Bitcoin as inflation-proof, non-government-manipulable money but finds price uncertainty difficult; the host argues price is “advertising,” while ETFs brought institutional involvement that can increase short-term volatility and make Bitcoin trade like tech stocks. They compare gold’s surge (driven by central banks) with Bitcoin’s drawdown, frame fiat banking failures like FTX and explain why banks can be backstopped by money printing, then cite U.S. debt/deficits and interest costs as reasons debasement will worsen. They discuss AI-driven job displacement, the importance of self-custody and seed phrases, concerns about exchange risk, claims of ETF-related manipulation (Jane Street), and the view that Bitcoin’s long-term thesis and adoption remain intact despite broken halving-cycle expectations.
