🎙 Bitcoin Fortress Podcast — Episode 215 Date: May 10, 2026 Block Height: 948805 Moscow Time: 1230 Fees: 1 / 1 / 2   In this episode: In this episode of The Bitcoin Fortress Podcast, we break down Bitcoin’s push back above $80,000, the accelerating wave of institutional adoption from firms like Morgan Stanley, Schwab, and Goldman Sachs, and what it means as Wall Street increasingly integrates Bitcoin into the financial system. We also cover Strategy’s massive Bitcoin position and evolving treasury model, the growing AI pivot among Bitcoin miners, new regulatory developments around stablecoins and the Clarity Act, and the biggest themes emerging from the Bitcoin podcast universe this week. Finally, we tie it all together with this week’s featured Bitcoin Fortress Substack post, “Bitcoin vs. Monetary Control,” and discuss why Bitcoin continues to stand apart as sovereign, permissionless money in an increasingly centralized financial world.   Bitcoin Fortress YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEPGN1YCIQcMxkUig5GaNrQ   Bitcoin Fortress Substack Featured Post: Bitcoin vs Monetary Control https://bitcoinfortress.substack.com/p/bitcoin-vs-monetary-control   Bitcoin Fortress Books: Bitcoin Fortress: A Simple Guide to Bitcoin for Beginners Bitcoin Retirement and Estate Planning The Bitcoin Lifestyle The Architecture of Money Follow me on Nostr: npub122fpu8lwu2eu2zfmrymcfed9tfgeray5quj78jm6zavj78phnqdsu3v4h5   NEWS (May 3, 2026 – May 10, 2026) Reuters — Strategy Q1 loss and Bitcoin holdings https://www.reuters.com/legal/government/saylors-strategy-posts-wider-quarterly-loss-bitcoin-slump-2026-05-05/ MarketWatch — Saylor may sell Bitcoin under certain circumstances https://www.marketwatch.com/story/michael-saylor-said-he-would-never-sell-bitcoin-now-he-says-he-might-f05776fc Financial Times — Morgan Stanley spot crypto trading on E*Trade https://www.ft.com/content/ce292294-3f04-4ac8-971b-2f45877b8e65 Schwab — Schwab Crypto rollout https://pressroom.aboutschwab.com/press-releases/press-release/2026/Charles-Schwab-Announces-Details-of-Spot-Crypto-Trading-Launch/default.aspx SEC — Goldman Sachs Bitcoin Premium Income ETF filing https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1479026/000119312526154126/d58512d485apos.htm Barron’s — Stablecoin yield compromise https://www.barrons.com/articles/crypto-bill-stablecoin-yields-coinbase-clarity-act-tillis-alsobrooks-78dd5028 Investopedia — Bitcoin above $81K and Clarity Act progress https://www.investopedia.com/bitcoin-is-back-above-usd81-000-signs-of-clarity-act-progress-may-be-helping-11966915 Crypto Briefing — New Jersey pension exposure to Strategy https://cryptobriefing.com/new-jersey-pension-fund-strategy-bitcoin-exposure/ Crypto Briefing — Tether Q1 profit and Bitcoin reserves https://cryptobriefing.com/tether-billion-dollar-profit/ Investors.com — Hut 8 AI data center deal https://www.investors.com/news/bitcoin-miner-hut-8-ai-data-center-deal-earnings-morgan-stanley-crypto-debut-bitcoin-price/ Riot Platforms — Q1 2026 production and operations update https://www.riotplatforms.com/riot-announces-first-quarter-2026-production-and-operations-updates/ Bitcoin Magazine — Bitfarms selling Bitcoin / AI pivot https://bitcoinmagazine.com/news/bitfarms-bitf-selling-its-bitcoin SoFi — Big Business Banking fiat and crypto platform https://investors.sofi.com/news/news-details/2026/SoFi-Launches-Big-Business-Banking-to-Power-Fiat-and-Crypto-Banking-on-a-Single-Regulated-Platform/default.aspx Investors.com — Coinbase layoffs and AI pivot https://www.investors.com/news/coinbase-stock-layoffs-14-workforce-ai-shift-bullish-rally-4-2-billion-acquisition-equiniti-tokenization-blsh/ Coin Stories — News Block https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coin-stories-with-natalie-brunell/id1569130932 TFTC — Bitcoin loyalty data and weekly Bitcoin themes https://www.tftc.io/bitcoin-loyalty-programs-oshi-research-small-business-btc-rewards/ What Bitcoin Did — Jeff Ross liquidity episode https://www.whatbitcoindid.com/wbd985-jeff-ross F
