Show Notes
<p>In this episode we chat with Steve, the creator of the UTX Oracle, the first tool that lets Bitcoin set its own price without needing to trust exchanges, APIs, or third parties.</p>
<p>Steve breaks down how UTX Oracle was built, why trusting exchanges goes against Bitcoin’s ethos, and how anyone can now verify Bitcoin’s real exchange rate directly from the blockchain. No intermediaries. No assumptions. Just pure Bitcoin truth.</p>
<p>We cover:</p>
<p>✅ How Bitcoin's price was traditionally set (and why it’s flawed)</p>
<p>✅ How the UTX Oracle lets Bitcoin price itself</p>
<p>✅ Why decentralized price discovery is critical for Bitcoin’s future</p>
<p>✅ How you can run your own UTX Oracle node at home</p>
<p>✅ The surprising things Steve learned while building it</p>
