All In Bitcoin

🎙️For years, I wanted to understand the difference between Austrian and Keynesian economics. I searched for explanations but never found the conversation I was looking for. So I created it.

In this episode, I sit down with Max Hillebrand, who masterfully explains the foundations of these two very different schools of economics and what truly separates them.

I genuinely believe this is one of those conversations everyone should watch at least once. I've memorized parts of it myself. It gives you the tools to understand the ideas behind both schools and, just as importantly, the confidence to explain the differences to others when someone asks, "But what is Austrian economics?"

If you've ever wanted a clear, accessible introduction to Austrian and Keynesian economics, this conversation is for you. It's also the interview I'd send to friends and family whenever they ask me what Austrian economics is all about.

🎙️CK sits down with Max Hillebrand to explore why Bitcoin is “ugly,” why metadata gets people killed, why privacy is a human necessity, and why the real revolution isn’t fighting power. It’s building technologies that make theft unprofitable.

🎙️American Hodl: Bitcoin is Forever War | KNOTS vs Core & BlackRock | All in Bitcoin w/CK

American HODL got into Bitcoin in 2014. He's seen every cycle since, every war, every wave of new people arrive and dilute the culture he helped build. In this episode he doesn't hold back.

Nietzsche, René Girard, and whether Bitcoiners become the thing they fight. The block size war and the PTSD it left behind. Why the KNOTS vs Core debate is a sideshow — and what BlackRock is quietly doing to Bitcoin's development culture that actually matters. The four-year cycle: broken or evolving? And the big unresolved tension that will define Bitcoin's future: freedom versus number go up.

Plus: when is deception moral? What Bukele got right. Why Europe is headed for civil war. And why Bitcoin is not a phase, not a moment — it's forever war.

And we're making a Bitcoin movie: BIP-110, KNOTS vs Core. You'll have to watch to get the pitch!
