    038 Jeff Gardner: Signal's Fatal Flaw Fixed — and AI Agents Love It | White Noise | All in Bitcoin w/CK

    📢 All In Bitcoin is now CK & The Revolution → https://linktr.ee/ckandtherevolution 🎙️What if Signal had no central servers? CK sits down with Jeff Gardner, co-founder of the Internet Privacy Foundation and builder of White Noise, to explore the future of private communication — from encrypted messaging and metadata to Nostr, AI agents, and digital privacy. Why does Signal still depend on centralized infrastructure? Can truly decentralized messaging actually work? And why might AI agents prefer open protocols with no phone numbers, emails, or logins? Plus, Jeff breaks down practical steps anyone can take today to improve their privacy. Signal without central servers. Private messaging for humans and AI agents. And the fight to keep the internet open. 👇 SHOP BITBOX HARDWARE WALLETS & ACCESSORIES WITH A 5% DISCOUNT https://bitbox.swiss/ckandtherevolution The discount code mentioned in this episode is no longer active.

    036 Max Hillebrand: Ultimate Guide to Austrian vs Keynesian Economics (Easy) | All In Bitcoin w/CK

    📢 All In Bitcoin is now CK & The Revolution → https://linktr.ee/ckandtherevolution 🎙️For years, I wanted to understand the difference between Austrian and Keynesian economics. I searched for explanations but never found the conversation I was looking for. So I created it. In this episode, I sit down with Max Hillebrand, who masterfully explains the foundations of these two very different schools of economics and what truly separates them. I genuinely believe this is one of those conversations everyone should watch at least once. I've memorized parts of it myself. It gives you the tools to understand the ideas behind both schools and, just as importantly, the confidence to explain the differences to others when someone asks, "But what is Austrian economics?" If you've ever wanted a clear, accessible introduction to Austrian and Keynesian economics, this conversation is for you. It's also the interview I'd send to friends and family whenever they ask me what Austrian economics is all about. 👇 SHOP BITBOX HARDWARE WALLETS & ACCESSORIES WITH A 5% DISCOUNT https://bitbox.swiss/ckandtherevolution The discount code mentioned in this episode is no longer active.

    📢 All In Bitcoin is now CK & The Revolution → https://linktr.ee/ckandtherevolution 🎙️American Hodl: Bitcoin is Forever War | KNOTS vs Core & BlackRock | All in Bitcoin w/CK American HODL got into Bitcoin in 2014. He's seen every cycle since, every war, every wave of new people arrive and dilute the culture he helped build. In this episode he doesn't hold back. Nietzsche, René Girard, and whether Bitcoiners become the thing they fight. The block size war and the PTSD it left behind. Why the KNOTS vs Core debate is a sideshow — and what BlackRock is quietly doing to Bitcoin's development culture that actually matters. The four-year cycle: broken or evolving? And the big unresolved tension that will define Bitcoin's future: freedom versus number go up. Plus: when is deception moral? What Bukele got right. Why Europe is headed for civil war. And why Bitcoin is not a phase, not a moment — it's forever war. And we're making a Bitcoin movie: BIP-110, KNOTS vs Core. You'll have to watch to get the pitch!

    📢 All In Bitcoin is now CK & The Revolution → https://linktr.ee/ckandtherevolution 🎙️ Jameson Lopp: Why We Choose Convenience Over Freedom (Nostr, Privacy & Bitcoin) Freedom is being traded for convenience, and most people don’t even notice. In Part 2 with Jameson Lopp, we go deep into freedom tech, privacy tools, censorship-resistant communication, and the future of digital sovereignty. Jameson explains why convenience is the easiest way to lose freedom, why tools like Signal, GrapheneOS, Linux, Bitcoin, and Nostr matter, and why freedom tech only wins if people actually use it. We also discuss Telegram vs Signal, Nostr beyond “just another Twitter,” Bitcoin self-custody, ETFs, privacy, and the growing risks of centralization. This is a conversation about liberty, communication, responsibility, and the tools we may need before it’s too late. 👇 SHOP BITBOX HARDWARE WALLETS & ACCESSORIES WITH A 5% DISCOUNT https://bitbox.swiss/ckandtherevolution The discount code mentioned in this episode is no longer active.

    027 Preston Pysh: Military Discipline, Broken Systems & Bitcoin Sovereignty I All in Bitcoin w/CK

    📢 All In Bitcoin is now CK & The Revolution → https://linktr.ee/ckandtherevolution 🎙️ In my conversation with Preston Pysh, we go far beyond macro and into the experiences that shaped his worldview: military discipline, combat, integrity, the 2008 financial crisis, ambition, and the moment “broken systems” became impossible to ignore. We talk about why trust is energy, how power dynamics operate inside rigid hierarchies, and why Bitcoin sovereignty begins with personal responsibility. If you’re tired of shallow takes and want a conversation with real depth, this one is for you. Part 2 drops March 18.

    026 Peter McCormack: From Bitcoin King to Prime Minister (Part 2) I All in Bitcoin w/CK

    📢 All In Bitcoin is now CK & The Revolution → https://linktr.ee/ckandtherevolution 🎙️ Peter McCormack returns for Part 2, and this one goes far beyond Bitcoin. We talk about building businesses in Britain, why entrepreneurship now feels like death by a thousand cuts, the broken incentives driving politics, and what it would actually take to restore freedom: life, liberty, property, and real accountability. Peter explains why running a business pushed him toward libertarian ideas, why he’s lost faith in today’s political class, what a real “UK reset” could look like, and where Bitcoin fits into the bigger picture, even if it scares people off. And yes… we talked about whether Peter could ever run the country. His thinking is in this episode.

    📢 All In Bitcoin is now CK & The Revolution → https://linktr.ee/ckandtherevolution NO CUSTODY. EVER.

    021 The Internet Just Split In Two – Which Side Are You On? w/Derek Ross - All In Bitcoin With CK

    📢 All In Bitcoin is now CK & The Revolution → https://linktr.ee/ckandtherevolution The internet is quietly splitting in two. A KYC, permissioned, censorable web on one side… and a small, unstoppable, permissionless one on the other. Derek Ross has deleted every legacy social account, staked his name and face on Nostr, and is betting his life on freedom tech, Bitcoin, and open protocols, even if his own family doesn’t fully get it. In this deeply personal conversation, Derek and I dig into what censorship actually feels like in the so-called “free world,” why YouTube and X suspensions are not a China-only story, and how Nostr lets you truly own your identity with private keys you can’t be deplatformed from. Derek explains why the “Nostr is too technical” myth needs to die, how circular Bitcoin economies and zaps are already working at scale, and why losing your keys would mean losing years of “proof-of-work” reputation. We talk about family who don’t believe in Bitcoin, political blow-ups at home, changing his mind 180° on COVID restrictions, and the real emotional cost of being visible instead of anonymous. Derek also shares how AI “vibe coding” turned him into a builder overnight, why he’s now doing dev-rel for Soapbox, and how he ended up literally marrying two friends who met on Nostr. 👉 Follow & subscribe to CK & The Revolution for more unfiltered conversations that go where others won’t. 🎧 Available on YouTube, Spotify, Apple, Nostr, and everywhere you listen: https://linktr.ee/ckandtherevolution 👇FOLLOW DEREK'S WORK: Nostr: derekross@grownostr.org https://www.grownostr.org 👇FOLLOW CK & THE REVOLUTION: Nostr: ckandtherevolution@primal.net X: @realckx TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 Introduction 5:59 Letting go of the old world 10:11 The real cost of stepping forward 14:11 The resistance that surprises him 17:07 The problem simplicity can’t solve 19:39 A truth he rarely says aloud 21:50 The tool that still doesn’t exist 27:46 What ownership actually means 33:02 When censorship stops being theoretical 36:20 The shift happening faster than expected 38:27 Building without permission 41:05 When passion unexpectedly becomes a job 45:07 The fear that lingers beneath the work 47:22 The conflict closest to home 52:03 A belief he completely reversed 55:59 Pride and isolation at the same time 59:51 What would remain if he disappeared 1:01:22 A great story NOSTR made possible 1:04:00 On the feeling of being free 1:05:13 Where to find Derek DISCLAIMER:All views expressed by me or my guests are solely our own opinions.
