Kyle Olney joins THE Bitcoin Podcast to discuss Bitcoin policy, open-source software, AI, privacy, and the growing battle between freedom technology and government control.

We examine the Clarity Act and BRCA, what they mean for Bitcoin developers and privacy tools, and why developer protections are critical fight for the future of open-source innovation in America.

Kyle also explores the parallels between Bitcoin and AI, the risks of restricting access to advanced models (e.g. Anthropic's Fable), and why open-source technology is essential for preserving competition, privacy, and individual liberty.

Finally, we zoom out to discuss technological acceleration, generational leadership, the Fourth Turning, and the case for a modern cypherpunk revival.

If you’re interested in Bitcoin, AI, privacy, and the future of freedom technology, this episode is for you.
