Jeremy Rubin joins us to talk about his secretive Miami Bitcoin office building Polybeam bridge and a Bitcoin staking platform, his controversial ideas for redesigning Bitcoin script entirely using RISC-V instead of the current "crappy programming language," his CTV endorsement process and why CAT proposals fell short, plus his theory on optimal soft fork activation timing to avoid holidays and summer vacations.

Notes:

• Building Bitcoin staking platform into core client

• Polybeam bridge connects Bitcoin to StarkNet

• CTV endorsement process received few submissions

• Recommends 10 megabytes memory for new script

• Early November best time for soft fork activation

• In-person work more effective than remote
