Bitcoin was supposed to set us free—but has it been captured by the very system it was designed to escape?

Polymath artist Monika Bravo joins me to explore Bitcoin’s identity crisis, sovereignty, AI, the architecture of value, and what it means to recover the spirit of Satoshi.

Monika and I go deep on her upcoming book, The Art of Synthesis and the Architecture of Value, and the ideas shaping her work right now: subjective value, personal sovereignty, boundaries, identity, creativity, artificial intelligence, Bitcoin culture, trauma, ancient knowledge, and the relationship between consciousness and technology.

We also explore whether Bitcoin’s increasing financialization is changing its culture, why Monika believes we shouldn’t turn Bitcoin—or its most prominent figures—into an ideology, and why value ultimately goes far deeper than price.
