I joined Knut Svanholm and Luke de Wolf on the Bitcoin Infinity Show to explore the fundamental role of money, incentives, and sound economics in shaping society. We dug into the "Give-a-Shit Matrix", a powerful framework for understanding how people allocate resources—and how broken incentives lead to systemic waste.
We also unpacked why Bitcoin is the apex of financial responsibility, how fiat incentivizes inefficiency, and why Ethereum’s staking model is fundamentally flawed. Along the way, we explored miner incentives, the real problem with ordinals, and the deeper economic distortions caused by inflation.
Why does technology keep advancing, yet people feel like they have less time? Why does the system seem designed to trap people in endless work? And how does Bitcoin realign incentives toward genuine prosperity?
This was a great conversation with some hard truths and a few laughs along the way.
