I Spoke To Bitcoin's Most Connected Insider. He Told Me Everything with David Bailey - State of Bitcoin Ep. 237

from State of Bitcoin with Brandon Keys

David Bailey reveals that 30-40 countries are secretly mining Bitcoin and 10+ nations are quietly building strategic Bitcoin reserves. The CEO of Nakamoto and Bitcoin Magazine joins Brandon to break down the Nakamoto-BTC Inc merger, why Bitcoin treasury companies are struggling, how the convertible note strategy backfired, what the Trump administration has actually delivered for Bitcoin, and why the nation-state Bitcoin race is bigger than anyone realizes. David shares hard-won lessons from his first year as a public company CEO, explains why you can't out-Saylor Saylor, and reveals the asymmetric advantage of accumulating Bitcoin in a bear market. He also discusses why no government wants to announce their Bitcoin holdings — and why that's about to change.
