Bitcoin Magazine Podcast

The conversation around corporate Bitcoin has shifted. Leading treasurers are no longer just asking how to buy Bitcoin—they are asking how to make it the most productive asset on their balance sheet.
We recently hosted an X Space featuring a masterclass in modern treasury management from Sam Callahan (OranjeBTC), Nathan Stump (BitGo), and Himanshu Sahay (Arch Lending).
Here is the blueprint for evolving your Bitcoin-powered balance sheet. 📈

"If we popped the quantum solution today, I think we'd be at $150K in two months." That's Ken Egan's call on Bitcoin Policy Hour Episode 36, joined by Zack Shapiro and host Zack Cohen. The trio walk through the Tillis-Brooks stablecoin yield compromise, the Clarity Act markup window, Admiral Paparo's watershed Indo-Pacom Bitcoin testimony, Secretary Hegseth's national security follow-up, and the quantum issue holding institutional capital on the sideline. 🔶 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: 01:30 — Bitcoin Policy Hour Ep. 36 Begins: Bitcoin 2026 Recap Sets The Stage03:00 — The Tillis-Brooks Stablecoin Yield Compromise Explained10:00 — The Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act & Software Developer Protections18:00 — The Quantum Debate Dominating Bitcoin 2026 Capitol Hill Conversations26:00 — Admiral Paparo's Senate Armed Services Testimony On Bitcoin34:00 — Secretary Hegseth, Department Of War & Bitcoin As National Security Tool42:00 — BPI Asia Launches With Tomas Furukawa & The Taiwan Bitcoin Reserve Report50:00 — Price Action: Why Macro Liquidity Favors Bitcoin Heading Into Summer58:00 — The $150K Target & Year-End Bitcoin Number Game#Bitcoin #BitcoinPolicy #BitcoinPolicyHour #BitcoinPolicyInstitute #BPI #ZackCohen #ZackShapiro #KenEgan #ClarityAct #MarketStructure #Stablecoins #TillisBrooks #BlockchainRegulatoryCertaintyAct #AdmiralPaparo #IndoPacom #BitcoinNode #PeteHegseth #QuantumBitcoin #BitcoinPrice #BPIAsia #TaiwanBitcoinReserve #SamouraiWallet #TornadoCash #SoftwareDevelopers #SenatorLummis #BitcoinMagazine #SoundMoney #BitcoinAdoption #NationalSecurity #BitcoinReserveDISCLAIMER: 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.

The GENIUS Act passed last summer, and now Washington is asking the next question: what do we actually do with stablecoins? Nik Bhatia walks Ken Hagan through the layered money framework, the offshore Eurodollar plumbing, and why exporting U.S. dollar stablecoins is a direct response to the e-CNY rollout. Along the way, he explains why stablecoins are a hidden Bitcoin accelerant and why every dollar minted offshore eventually finds its way to layer-one money.
