From Waterfront Property to Bitcoin

from Bitcoin Success School · host Fin Creighton

In this episode, I sit down with Zane Truscott, an Australian Bitcoiner and educator, to break down why the Great Australian Property Dream no longer works and why Bitcoin is emerging as the true apex asset.Zane shares his personal journey through the 2008 Global Financial Crisis, losing money on waterfront property, and the realisation that boom-and-bust cycles are baked into a debt-based system. We unpack why property has become a speculative casino, how inflation distorts reality, and why pricing assets in fiat hides the truth.Need help doing self-custody properly and securely? ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bitcoinsuccessschool.com⁠⁠⁠⁠Get 5% off your MicroSeed (Seedphrase Backup): ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://microseed.io/?ref=fin⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow me on X (Twitter): ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://x.com/FinCreighton⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow me on IG: ⁠⁠⁠https://instagram.com/fincreighton⁠⁠⁠Subscribe for new episodes: ⁠⁠⁠https://youtube.com/@fincreighton⁠⁠⁠Follow Zane on X (Twitter): https://x.com/ZaneTruscottZane on YouTube: https://youtube.com/@ZaneTruscottZane’s Website: https://zanetruscott.com
