Brandon Green and David Bailey sit down for a conversation about the future of BTC Inc, Nakamoto, and Bitcoin itself. Bailey outlines why his mission is to “hijack the financial system,” how public-company risk works behind the scenes, and why bitcoin’s market structure is changing forever. He lays out a 50-year roadmap: trillions in value creation, a global bitcoin reserve, and hyperbitcoinization driven through capital markets.

In this X Space hosted by Isaiah Austin (Bitcoin Magazine) with Hunter Albright (SALT) and Maurizio Pedrazzoli Grazioli (Mr. M Podcast Host) explore why the MENA region—especially the UAE—is rapidly emerging as one of the world’s most forward-leaning hubs for bitcoin adoption. From a young, globally diverse population to strong cross-border financial needs and a deep cultural understanding of hard assets like gold, MENA offers a unique environment for bitcoin to thrive. They break down the region’s regulatory clarity, real-world use cases, rising institutional interest, and how both individuals and corporations are using BTC as a tool for savings, remittances, lending, and long-term wealth preservation. As sovereign wealth funds, entrepreneurs, and everyday users push innovation forward, the region is shaping what a truly bitcoin-powered economy can look like.

This week on Bitcoin Policy Hour, Zack Cohen, Zack Shapiro, and Ken Egan break down a change in U.S. financial policy: the Bitcoin for America Act, a bill that could allow Americans to pay taxes in bitcoin and fund a strategic national bitcoin reserve. We also explore Middle East Bitcoin adoption, why Harvard’s endowment just made BTC its largest equity position, and the economic crisis facing young Americans — with new research showing it may take $140,000 a year just to survive in 2024.

Originally recorded as a live X Space and now available as a podcast episode: SALT CEO Hunter Albright joins Bitcoin Magazine’s Mark Mason and host Isaiah Austin to dissect Europe’s accelerating Bitcoin adoption. From MiCA’s regulatory tailwind to nation-state strategic reserves and the surge in BTC-backed lending, this discussion cuts through the noise on where real momentum is building.

Europe is outpacing Asia and the US in institutional Bitcoin integration, with small businesses quietly converting revenue to BTC for fast liquidity—no banks required. As digital IDs roll out in the UK, Bitcoin emerges as the clean opt-out for true financial sovereignty. Hunter breaks down SALT’s collateralized lending: no credit checks, Shield protection against liquidation, and borrowing against BTC as the smarter path to wealth acceleration. Europe’s HODL-lend-treasury hybrid is quietly shaping up as the blueprint for the next bull cycle.
