  • Trump's Crypto-Dollarization Gameplan | Bitcoin Policy Hour Ep. 14
    In this episode of the Bitcoin Policy Hour, hosts Zack Cohen, Zack Shapiro, and Matt Pines unpack the most revealing U.S. government crypto report to date — and how it quietly lays the groundwork for a Bitcoin-aligned, post-CBDC dollar strategy.With references to the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, a clear rejection of retail CBDCs, and surprising pro-Bitcoin signals embedded in White House language, the report reads less like bureaucratic filler — and more like a covert blueprint for crypto-dollarization.The group provides an outlook on strategic bitcoin accumulation by the US government as well as the latest on Tornado Cash, Samourai Wallet and implications for open source crypto development.

  • Bitcoin's Q-Day: The Geopolitics of Quantum Computing and Capital | Bitcoin Policy Hour Ep. 13
    What future risk does quantum computing pose to Bitcoin, and how can we think of those risks in terms of their potential geopolitical outcomes?In this episode of Bitcoin Policy Hour, Matthew Pines, Zack Shapiro and Zack Cohen recap the "Crypto Week" legislative wins, followed by a deep dive on the "Q-Day" threat—the moment quantum computers become powerful enough to threaten Bitcoin’s core cryptographic security.This leads to the question: with the ability to undermine Satoshi’s coins, could a quantum breakthrough trigger a global monetary crisis, and ignite a new geopolitical arms race between the U.S., China, and tech giants?As Bitcoin becomes embedded in 401(k)s, sovereign reserves, and global ETFs, the risks—and consequences—go far beyond crypto and deep into the political economy of capital, social structure and geoeconomic competition.⭐ Join Bitcoin Magazine @ Bitcoin Asia 2025, Aug. 28-29 in Hong Kong!
