The hardest thing in business is not seeing the future. It is surviving long enough to build it.

My fireside chat with @Julian_Liniger at @BTCPrague on focus, endurance, corporate transformation, and how entrepreneurs can use Bitcoin, AI, and digital finance to create the next generation of products.

Full interview below.

00:00 - Bitcoin as the dominant global Digital Capital network: 17 years, hundreds of billions invested, and a potential $100T opportunity

38:05 - $STRC, $SATA, and the next layer of bitcoin-backed financial products
48:52 - Q&A: why Strategy sold 32 BTC and why bitcoin-backed capital must support credit and equity

Bitcoin has already won as Digital Capital.

The next wave is Digital Credit, Digital Money, Digital Yield, and Bitcoin-backed capital markets — products that can bring trillions of dollars of traditional credit and money market capital onto Bitcoin.

My interview with @Cointelegraph at @BTCPrague.

04:31 — The opportunity for 8% yield in dollars, euros, yen, pounds, and francs

22:06 — Bitcoin per share, long-term accretion, and accumulating through bull and bear markets
