    Reads: What Canada Couldn't Freeze: Freeland, the Rhodes Trust, and the Money the State Couldn't Reach (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    In February 2022, Chrystia Freeland told Canada's banks they could freeze accounts without a judge, and they froze 257 of them. Two courts have since ruled it unconstitutional. The Rhodes Trust, founded by Cecil Rhodes as (in his own words) a secret society to place its people where the levers are, made her CEO anyway. Zach reads his essay on what the state could reach and what it couldn't: the bank accounts it took in hours, the 14.6 Bitcoin hand-delivered to truckers in envelopes with handwrit

    Guest: Why a Fed Rate Hike Might Not Crash Bitcoin This Time | Ansel Lindner (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Today's FOMC decision carries real weight: markets are pricing an 87% probability of a 25 basis point hike, the first since 2023, after the Fed held in July on a divided 9-3 vote. Core inflation is running at 3.3%, the labor market is still warm, and Bitcoin is sitting around $77-79K heading into the announcement. Ansel Lindner (Bitcoin & Markets) joins us to break down what actually matters here: whether 25 bps is a real policy shift or mostly signaling, what a hike does to that 9-3 dissent, an

    Reads: The Rabbit Hole Has an Exit: 25 Years of 9/11 and Why I Ended Up in Bitcoin (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    In 2008, Zach sat down to read the official story of 9/11 so he could stop thinking about it. That was 18 years ago. This Reads episode walks the record, not the theories: Operation Northwoods and its 35-year classification, the Gulf of Tonkin attack that never happened, Colin Powell's vial, the 567-page Commission report that never mentions Building 7, and NIST conceding 2.25 seconds of freefall. Then it applies Rothbard's cui bono method to the whole quarter century and asks the question that

    Guest: Bitcoin Didn't Break. The $320M Shortcut Built on Top of It Did. | Rob Wallace of Bitcoin News (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    Liquid, the Blockstream sidechain built to give Bitcoin users faster and more private transactions, hit a consensus split this week and "white hat hackers" pulled $320 million out of it. Bitcoin itself never went down. The layer built on top of it did. Rob from Bitcoin News joins us to go deep on what actually happened with Liquid and why this keeps being the pattern: the same week, the ColdCard attacker moved 45 percent of previously stolen funds in a third wave, and Orionx, a Tether-backed Chi

    Reads: Your Bank Account Is a Flock Camera (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    There is a camera on a pole near you right now, and it is photographing every car that passes. Adam O'Brien's essay "Jump Out of the Pot" turns that camera around and points it at your bank account: the 1970 Bank Secrecy Act that made banks informants, the 1976 Supreme Court ruling that made your financial records the bank's property instead of yours, and the 257 Canadian accounts frozen in hours for a perfectly legal donation. Financial privacy isn't about hiding bad things. It's protection aga
