Each episode unpacks one question — security budgets, fee markets, mining economics, privacy heuristics — using primary sources, traceable numbers, and falsifiable predictions. No price calls, no tribalism, no hype. Just the economics hiding under the protocol, explained clearly enough to argue with.

  Episode 13: Bitcoin's Security Budget Problem: Modeling 2028 and 2032

  Jun 2, 202634 minS0

  <p>Episode 13 — Bitcoin Heuristics: Field Notes</p><p>Bitcoin's Security Budget Problem: Modeling 2028 and 2032</p><p>Bitcoin's security depends on miner revenue, which depends on the block subsidy — and that subsidy halves every four years. Fee revenue, the only alternative, has never sustained beyond 7% of mining income. The result is a structural problem: even at $150K/coin with $5M in daily fees, the network would be less secure per dollar of value stored than it is today.</p><p>This episode models three scenarios each for 2028 and 2032, explains why every one shows declining security ratios, and makes five falsifiable predictions grad...

  Episode 12: The Block Space Market — Are Bitcoin's New Tenants Paying Enough Rent?

  May 13, 202628 minS0

  <p>==============================================================</p><p>EPISODE DESCRIPTION</p><p>==============================================================</p><p><br></p><p>Ordinals, BRC-20, Runes, Babylon — every one of them proved Bitcoin's block space has real demand. Every one of them generated dramatic fee spikes. And every one of them collapsed back to baseline within days or weeks. In this episode, Geo Nicolaidis looks at fee revenue the way an investor looks at earnings — not the peaks, but the average Tuesday in March — and asks whether the new tenants are paying enough rent to keep the building standing.</p><p><br></p><p>==============================================================</p><p>SHOW NOTES</p><p>==============================================================</p><p><br>...

  Apr 29, 202618 minS0

  <p>EPISODE DESCRIPTION</p><p><br></p><p>In the middle of Bitcoin's documented security budget crisis, something unexpected happened: people started paying unprecedented amounts in transaction fees for images, JSON tokens, and protocols Satoshi never designed for. This episode explores how Ordinals, BRC-20, and Runes work — and whether the fee spikes they generate can sustain Bitcoin's mining revenue long-term.</p><p><br></p><p>SHOW NOTES</p><p><br></p><p>What we cover:</p><p><br></p><p>• Ordinals: Casey Rodarmor's January 2023 invention to uniquely identify and track every satoshi as a distinguishable asset via sequential numbering, creating six...

  Episode 10: Energy Wars — When AI Outbids Bitcoin for Electricity

  Apr 29, 202613 minS0

  <p>EPISODE DESCRIPTION</p><p>Bitcoin's theoretical security budget problem meets real-world energy economics as AI data centers systematically outbid Bitcoin miners for the same electricity. This episode traces the displacement happening across hashrate, geography, and centralization — and what it reveals about Bitcoin's actual security model.</p><p><br></p><p>SHOW NOTES</p><p><br></p><p>What we cover:</p><p>• The revenue shock: Galaxy Digital leasing 133 MW to CoreWeave for 300 million dollars per year, versus 22 million from Bitcoin mining — a 10x increase in revenue per megawatt</p><p>• Sector-wide pivot: 65 billion dollars in announced AI/high-performance computing contract...

The protocol assumes transaction fees will replace this declining revenue to fund security. Academic research — from Princeton, Duke, and the world's top economics journals — says this assumption may not hold. This episode explores the mathematics and the stakes.</p><p><br></p><p>SHOW NOTES</p><p>=================================================</p><p><br></p><p>What we cover:</p><p><br...
