Part 10/13:
Beyond technicalities, the conversation captures the culture of Bitcoin enthusiasts—what they call the "pleb movement"—which believes in decentralization, self-sovereignty, and resilience. They freely mock the "tourists" who enter the space, often with superficial understanding, but respect those who are committed enough to stack sats and go all-in.
The discussion also touches upon the looming threat of regulatory crackdowns, with figures like Ray Dalio questioning the future of Bitcoin in a hypothetical ban scenario. Despite that, the consensus remains that Bitcoin’s fundamental strength is rooted in its censorship resistance and community-driven ethos.
