The Bitcoin Infinity Show

<p>Murch joins the Bitcoin Infinity Show to talk about Bitcoin Core's approach to mempool policies, OP_RETURN limits, and the practical challenges of fighting non-monetary data like inscriptions on the blockchain. He explains why harm reduction through flexible scripting and miner incentives may be more effective than strict enforcement, while pushing back on claims that developers are enabling spam or ignoring censorship resistance. From Lightning's early days to the realities of node running and block space demand, this technical deep dive explores Bitcoin's balance between innovation, decentralization, and long-term resilience.</p> <p>Connect with Murch: </p> <p><a href="https://x.com/murchandamus">https://x.com/murchandamus</a></p> <p>Connect with Us:</p> <p><a href="https://www.bitcoininfinityshow.com/">https://www.bitcoininfinityshow.com/</a></p> <p><a href="https://bitcoininfinitystore.com">https://bitcoininfinitystore.com</a></p> <p><a href="https://primal.net/infinity">https://primal.net/infinity</a></p> <p><a href="https://primal.net/knut">https://primal.net/knut</a></p> <p><a href="https://primal.net/luke">https://primal.net/luke</a></p> <p><a href="https://twitter.com/BtcInfinityShow">https://twitter.com/BtcInfinityShow</a></p> <p><a href="https://twitter.com/knutsvanholm">https://twitter.com/knutsvanholm</a></p> <p><a href="https://twitter.com/lukedewolf">https://twitter.com/lukedewolf</a></p> <p>Join the Bitcoin Infinity Academy at our Geyser page: <a href="https://geyser.fund/project/infinity">https://geyser.fund/project/infinity</a></p> <p>Thanks to our sponsors - check out their websites for info:</p> <p>BitVault: <a href="https://oshi.link/37L1WI">https://oshi.link/37L1WI</a> (Our referral link!)</p> <p>BitBox: <a href="https://bitbox.swiss/infinity">https://bitbox.swiss/infinity</a> - Use Code INFINITY for 5% off! </p> <p>Club Orange: <a href="https://www.cluborange.org/">https://www.cluborange.org/</a></p> <p>Bitcoin Adviser: <a href="https://content.thebitcoinadviser.com/freedom">https://content.thebitcoinadviser.com/freedom</a></p> <p>ShopInBit: <a href="https://shopinbit.com/bitcoininfinity">https://shopinbit.com/bitcoininfinity</a> - Use code INFINITY for a €5 discount! </p> <p>The Bitcoin Infinity Show is a Bitcoin podcast hosted by Knut Svanholm and produced by Luke de Wolf.</p>

<p>Pierre Rochard joins the Bitcoin Infinity Show to talk about Bitcoin's financial evolution, from his early Lightning Network innovations to defending miners against political attacks and now leading the charge on corporate treasury companies like MicroStrategy and Riot. They dive into the debate over self-custody versus financialized Bitcoin products, the risks and rewards of leveraging debt to stack BTC, and how bridging fiat institutions could accelerate adoption in a world where fiat's collapse looms. This episode unpacks why option value and competitive products might reshape Bitcoin's future, even as self-sovereignty remains the ultimate ideal.</p> <p>Connect with Pierre:</p> <p><a href="https://x.com/BitcoinPierre">https://x.com/BitcoinPierre</a></p> <p>Connect with Us:</p> <p><a href="https://www.bitcoininfinityshow.com/">https://www.bitcoininfinityshow.com/</a></p> <p><a href="https://bitcoininfinitystore.com">https://bitcoininfinitystore.com</a></p> <p><a href="https://primal.net/infinity">https://primal.net/infinity</a></p> <p><a href="https://primal.net/knut">https://primal.net/knut</a></p> <p><a href="https://primal.net/luke">https://primal.net/luke</a></p> <p><a href="https://twitter.com/BtcInfinityShow">https://twitter.com/BtcInfinityShow</a></p> <p><a href="https://twitter.com/knutsvanholm">https://twitter.com/knutsvanholm</a></p> <p><a href="https://twitter.com/lukedewolf">https://twitter.com/lukedewolf</a></p> <p>Join the Bitcoin Infinity Academy at our Geyser page: <a href="https://geyser.fund/project/infinity">https://geyser.fund/project/infinity</a></p> <p>Thanks to our sponsors - check out their websites for info:</p> <p>BitVault: <a href="https://bitvault.sv/">https://bitvault.sv/</a> - Use Code INFINITY for 10% off!</p> <p>BitBox: <a href="https://bitbox.swiss/infinity">https://bitbox.swiss/infinity</a> - Use Code INFINITY for 5% off!</p> <p>Club Orange: <a href="https://www.cluborange.org/">https://www.cluborange.org/</a></p> <p>Bitcoin Adviser: <a href="https://content.thebitcoinadviser.com/freedom">https://content.thebitcoinadviser.com/freedom</a></p> <p>ShopInBit: <a href="https://shopinbit.com/bitcoininfinity">https://shopinbit.com/bitcoininfinity</a> - Use code INFINITY for a €5 discount!</p> <p>The Bitcoin Infinity Show is a Bitcoin podcast hosted by Knut Svanholm and produced by Luke de Wolf.</p>
