Jeff Booth returns to explore Bitcoin as a foundational protocol, the explosive innovation happening in layers, and its accelerating adoption around the world. He dives deep into the intersection of Bitcoin and AI, the deflationary forces reshaping economies, and why decentralized AI is critical for the future.

From the complexities of productivity and debt to the evolving role of venture capital, Jeff makes the case that real value creation — not extraction — will define the winners in this new era. He urges founders and builders to embrace an abundance mindset and focus on solving problems for others amid global uncertainty.
