📌One of the biggest mistakes we make when orange pilling people is starting with what Bitcoin means to us instead of what matters to them.

We lead with hard money, fixed supply, self-custody, and permissionless transactions.

But if you're talking to a merchant, especially one using Square, maybe the better opening question is:

"Oh Square? Are you using their new payment rails with no fees?"

💡Start with their problem. Start with their incentives.

People don't adopt Bitcoin because it solves your problems. They adopt Bitcoin because it solves theirs.

Shout out to people like @CHODL who bring this topic up every day, and people like @AndrewTilmann, @TheSoloMiningCo and @SatWiseJanx, who put this into action. 🎯

📍 Bitcoin Beat | EP13 – I Am GPIO

We crossed an ocean to talk with the man, the myth, the legend, behind @TheSoloMiningCo, Duncan. A designer, maker, and relentless creator with a passion for Bitcoin!

@theDAHTcom and @Jeffreytief take to the Bitcoin Chats series and dive into learning why solo mining is necessary, why home mining is inevitable, and what the future of home solo mining may look like.

Bitcoin is approaching one of its most significant protocol forks in years.

The upcoming eCash hard fork reshapes how transactions scale using sidechains and drive-chains.

In this episode, we touch on:
• What the eCash proposal actually does
• Why some Bitcoiners support it
• Why others are pushing back
• What it could mean for Bitcoin going forward

Is this evolution or unnecessary complexity?

@theDAHTcom and I break down what this means for you.

Watch the clip from @BitcoinBeatPod and decide for yourself.

📍Bitcoin Beat | EP12 – eCash Hard Fork & Jamie Dimon Panics

Jamie Dimon is in full meltdown mode, losing his cool on air at Brian Armstrong while the banks fight for survival.

@Jeffreytief and @theDAHTcom also break down the upcoming eCash hard fork, the Bitcoin-Gold ratio, Saylor’s tiny BTC sale (why X is overreacting), and the real physical benefits of Bitcoin.

Most people discover Bitcoin by looking for a better investment.

Andrew Tilmann discovered Bitcoin by asking a much deeper question:

"What is money?"

In this interview, Andrew shares the personal journey that led him down the Bitcoin rabbit hole, why bringing Bitcoin education to the Midwest matters, and what inspired him to launch the Bitcoin Scholarship Foundation.

This is one of those stories that reminds you Bitcoin isn't just about price, it's about understanding the world differently.

And make sure you watch until the end... what started as a serious conversation turned into a question that had both @AndrewTilmann and @theDAHTcom laughing 😂.

📍Bitcoin Beat | EP11 - Andrew Tilmann

Midwest Bitcoin Summit. Might be a conference you haven’t heard of until recently, but it will be an event to remember.

The Bitcoin Beat with @theDAHTcom and @Jeffreytief join guest @AndrewTilmann to discuss the upcoming first ever Bitcoin Conference in the Midwest. What to expect, what's going down, and how it will set the bar with a Bitcoin Only agenda.

You won’t want to miss what else Andrew has been up to, starting the Bitcoin Scholarship Foundation. He’s revealed the master plan with the Columbus Bitcoin Meetup recently and also to a few at the BTC26 Vegas crowd. Listen in for some one on one info about it, direct from the man himself.

📍Bitcoin Beat | EP10 - Bel Air

The Bitcoin Beat returns to recap the Bitcoin Pizza day in Los Angeles that @Anders_ hosted. @theDAHTcom had a great time out at the event, and recalls an interesting moment on his way there through “The Hills” of Bel-Air.

This weekend also saw a live, walk through, in real time, of a merchant accepting sats for food. The key takeaway shared in this x-Space, hosted by @CH2BF, is one that could help many of us better onboard and orange pill merchants... without even mentioning the word “Bitcoin”.

We sat down with @Dennis_Porter_ founder of the @SatoshiActFund and the conversation took an unexpected turn…

Bitcoin isn't just a financial asset. It’s entering conversations around national defense, cyber strategy, and constitutional rights.

Admiral Paparo recently testified before House and Senate committees, publicly and behind closed doors, and Bitcoin came up.

Think about that for a second.

• Where does a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve fit?
• Where does Proof of Work fit?
• Can Bitcoin become a cyber defense tool?
• And the uncomfortable question nobody wants to ask:

If Bitcoin becomes strategically important to the United States… does national interest ever collide with individual rights?

This discussion goes far beyond price charts.

📍New Bitcoin Beat (Episode 9) is now live!!

@Dennis_Porter_ returns to the show with @Jeffreytief and @theDAHTcom to break down some major developments on Capitol Hill... including Admiral Samuel Paparo’s recent testimony confirming that the US Military is running a Bitcoin node. 😮

What does this actually mean for Bitcoin’s future? We dig into it.

Check it out, and give @SatoshiActFund and our new podcast account @BitcoinBeatPod a follow. More big conversations coming soon.

Why not $XRP, $SOL, $ETH, $USDC, $USDT❓

📌Terence hits the nail on the head 📌

"Money is worthless if it can be sanctioned, censored, confiscated, have a network hiccup, have issuers who black-list wallets, or exchanges delist them"

📍Bitcoin Beat | EP8 - Pizza Day

The Bitcoin Beat with @theDAHTcom and @Jeffreytief, time to get excited to enjoy Pizza later this week for Bitcoin Pizza day. We cover Saylor's pivot back (from the prior pivot of) suggesting selling Bitcoin, as well Gold regaining some ground against Bitcoin finally. Iran seems to be taking a position on the discussion too, and well... all bets are off!

@ProofOfMoney's take on "why Bitcoin" still rings true today. The XRP Army and Solana Soldiers may not be happy about it, but Bitcoin has always been the answer.

We have to acknowledge the failure that can not be overlooked. Keonne and Bill, from Samourai Wallet, are STILL sitting in prison... for writing code!?

@keonne and @leamuirleyn we are with you. This community won’t stop until Bill and Keonne are free once again.

#freesamourai

The Bitcoin Beat with @theDAHTcom and @Jeffreytief returns to cover some of the recent updates regarding Michael Saylor admitting they will sell Bitcoin if advantageous to the company, and the updated Gold/Bitcoin ratio chart.

But we have to acknowledge the failure that can not be overlooked. Keonne and Bill, from Samourai Wallet, are STILL sitting in prison... for writing code!? @keonne and @leamuirleyn we are with you. This community won’t stop until Bill and Keonne are free once again.
