“The Bitcoin Standard should be required reading for everyone in modern society.” — Michael Saylor
In this episode, Blackbeard turns his attention to The Bitcoin Standard, the modern monetary classic by economist Saifedean Ammous. From seashells and gold to fiat currency and central banking, Blackbeard reviews the book’s clear and coherent narrative of monetary theory, the history of money, and practical economics—then delivers his own hard-earned opinions from a pirate’s vantage point outside the system.
Rather than summarizing the book like a classroom lecture, Blackbeard explains why it matters now. Using pirate-era analogies and modern examples, he connects sound money to discipline, sovereignty, time preference, and civilization itself. Arabella Nightwind adds sharp commentary, challenging listeners to see how inflation, debt, and monetary manipulation quietly shape culture, incentives, and human behavior. This is not academic theory—it is survival knowledge for a world built on broken money.
This episode is for listeners who want to understand Bitcoin, sound money, inflation, fiat currency, and economic history without jargon or ideology. Whether you’ve already read The Bitcoin Standard or are encountering its ideas for the first time, this discussion will sharpen your thinking and frame Bitcoin not as a trade, but as a fundamental shift in how society stores value and measures truth. Hoist the black flag, steady your mind, and listen closely—this knowledge changes how you see everything that follows.
