In this video, I discuss the keynote speeches given at the 2024 Nashville Bitcoin Conference by Donald Trump and RFK, Jr.

I conclude that RFK, Jr. understands Bitcoin and economic policy at a much deeper level than Trump. It's not even clear if Trump currently owns any BTC, while RFK Jr. appears to own a lot.

The very fact that US presidential candidates are now competing for the votes of Bitcoiners is a very promising development in itself.

I also discuss the logistical problems with setting up a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve, including asking where the money is going to come from. Will central bankers cooperate to engineer their own demise?

I end the video by emphasizing the importance of family, community, and grass-root efforts (including permissionless software) over voting in national elections.
