Show Notes

<p>Brady Swenson co-founded Swan Bitcoin and created perhaps the most iconic bitcoin meme in existence: "Tick Tock, Next Block." Continuing our exploration of Bitcoin and Time, having romanced through der Gigi and traipsed by Nick Land, we do our first video breakdown - Swenson's talk at BTC Amsterdam 2025. Satoshi originally referred to a "timechain", not blockchain. Debt is pulling future wealth into the present. There is something to this, something deep and impactful. How does bitcoin affect time - our perception? Will we reclaim the desire for mastery with patient capital? Is unsinkable money the key to innovation? What does bitcoin mean for the family, the musician, the community? Tune in and turn on.</p>
