RIPPLE VS BITCOIN: Will XRP Undermine Strategic Bitcoin Reserve?

In this episode, Nik sits back down with David Zell, co-founder of the Bitcoin Policy Institute, to discuss the latest developments in Bitcoin’s intersection with U.S. policy and global influence. They begin with Ross Ulbricht’s release, a victory that highlights the political momentum of Bitcoin advocates, and the recent executive order that acknowledges Bitcoin as freedom technology. David dives into the challenges posed by Ripple’s lobbying efforts and why securing an SBR is critical for America to support innovation, signal leadership in freedom technology, and remain competitive on the global stage. 📊 The Bitcoin Layer is a bitcoin and global macroeconomic research firm. ▶️ Subscribe and turn on notifications for TBL on YouTube.📚 Subscribe to TBL’s research letter: https://thebitcoinlayer.com/subscribe🎧 Subscribe to The Bitcoin Layer on your favorite podcast platform.📱 Follow TBL on X: https://twitter.com/TheBitcoinLayer📩 Join the official TBL channel on Telegram: https://t.me/thebitcoinlayerofficial🧢 Use code TBLYT10 for 10% off all The Bitcoin Layer Merch at http://TheBitcoinLayer.com/merch ⛓️ ₿lock Height 881267 ⚡ Contribute to The Bitcoin Layer via Lightning Network: [email protected] Bhatia's Twitter: https://twitter.com/timevalueofbtcCreative Director Matthew Ball's Twitter: https://twitter.com/matthewrball The Bitcoin Layer and its guests do not provide investment advice.
