Show Notes

<p>In Episode 10 of our Everything Divided by 21 Million series, I sit down with Knut Svanholm to talk about Bitcoin adoption—and why he says “Bitcoin is not for everyone. It’s for anyone.” </p> <p>We get into what that distinction really means, the responsibility of taking control of your keys, why proper on-chain Bitcoin will probably be for the few, and how scaling pushes adoption into layers (second layer + custodial vs. true self-sovereignty). </p> <p>Knut also lays out the big macro view: the “snowball effect,” fiat hyperinflation in Bitcoin terms, and why he believes a crash is inevitable—with Bitcoin as the lifeboat. </p> <p>We also touch on S-curve vs J-curve adoption, scarcity (96% mined), network effects (Metcalfe’s Law), and what individuals can do to move adoption forward by leading through example.</p> <p>Guest: Knut Svanholm — author of Everything Divided by 21 Million<br /> Series: Episode 10 (Adoption)</p> <p>Subscribe for Episode 11.</p>
