Self-Custody Under Threat, Why Banks Can't Hold Bitcoin & the 2028 AI Crisis | BPH Ep 29

from Bitcoin Magazine Podcast · host BTC Media

Your right to self-custody is being quietly negotiated away. Bipartisan deal-making on the stablecoin bill could gut the BRCA provisions that protect Bitcoin developers and your right to hold your own keys. Meanwhile, the Basel framework's 1,250% risk weight makes it so expensive for banks to hold Bitcoin that none of them will and that may be by design. They also dig into Trini Research's viral 2028 Global Intelligence Crisis report and why mass AI disruption could actually be hyper-bullish for Bitcoin.🔶 Connect with Zack Shapiro on X: https://x.com/zackbshapiro🔶 Connect with Zack Cohen on X: https://x.com/zackcohen_🔶 Connect with Ken Egan on X: https://x.com/Bayman11771🔶 Learn more about the Bitcoin Policy Institute: https://www.btcpolicy.org/Chapters: 3:00 Stablecoin Bill & BRCA Self-Custody Provisions Under Threat8:21 First Amendment, Software Developers & Money Transmitter Law12:08 What BPI Is Doing on Capitol Hill & How You Can Help17:41 Basel's 1,250% Risk Weight Mistake Explained25:34 Supreme Court Strikes Down IEEPA Tariffs32:19 Marco Rubio on the Declining Dollar & Stablecoin Urgency35:13 Trini Research's 2028 Global Intelligence Crisis Report43:09 AI Disruption, UBI, and Why Bitcoin Is the Hedge50:55 Centaur Maxing, AI Native Skills & Career Advice for Graduates#Bitcoin #BitcoinPolicy #BRCA #SelfCustody #StablecoinBill #SupremeCourt #Tariffs #IEEPA #BaselFramework #BankOfInternationalSettlements #BitcoinRegulation #AIDisruption #2028Crisis #TriniResearch #BitcoinPolicyInstitute #MoneyTransmitter #FirstAmendment #BitcoinAndAI #MarcoRubio #DollarDecline #UBI #SoundMoney #BitcoinBanking #DigitalAssets #BitcoinDevelopers #AgentCommerce #Deflation #BitcoinHedge #CongressBitcoin #BitcoinNewsDISCLAIMER: The views and opinions expressed in this show are those of the participants and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of BTC Inc., Bitcoin Magazine, or any affiliated entities.
