Bitcoin with ZT

What if financial sovereignty isn't just about owning your Bitcoin?

In this episode, I sit down with Katie from Citizen X, a specialist in international residency, citizenship and what is often called a “Plan B.”

For many people in Western countries, the idea of having a second passport or alternative residency would have seemed unnecessary just a few decades ago. Stable governments, relatively strong currencies, political freedom and economic opportunity made it easy to assume that your home country would always remain a safe and prosperous place to live.

But the world is chan...

Bitcoin is moving into a very interesting phase of the current cycle — and the question is no longer simply “Is Bitcoin going up?” but how much longer will the opportunity to accumulate Bitcoin at today’s prices remain?

In this episode of Bitcoin in Brief, Bisher and I look at the latest Bitcoin outlook and some of the biggest developments shaping the market.

We start with Stormrake’s Q4 Outlook and the shift in market psychology from “Depression” to “Disbelief” — and why that could suggest there is still significant growth ahead in this cycle.

We then look at...

In this week's episode of Bitcoin in Brief, we step back from the day-to-day Bitcoin price action and look at some of the bigger forces shaping our financial future — from rising interest rates and growing debt to the changing psychology of Bitcoiners.

We discuss:

☑️ Rising interest rates and the debt problem — how much more pressure can households and governments absorb as the cost of servicing debt continues to rise?
☑️ Fiat vs Bitcoin — what happens when we measure traditional currencies against an asset with a fixed supply?
☑️ The Bitcoin “Opt Out” — why Bitcoin represents a fundamental...

What happens when a traditional financial advisor becomes convinced that Bitcoin could fundamentally reshape the global financial system?

In this episode of The ZT Podcast, I sit down with Peter Dunworth, founder of The Bitcoin Adviser, based in Sydney, Australia

Peter comes from a traditional financial-planning background and now works with high-net-worth individuals and families to acquire and secure Bitcoin through a collaborative custody structure.

He's also become well known for his extremely bullish long-term view on Bitcoin — including his much-discussed 100X Bitcoin thesis.

In this wide-ranging conversation, we explore why Pe...

Bitcoin in Brief, Episode 10 with Zane Truscott and Bisher Khudeira

Bitcoin has broken above the $83K resistance level — so does this mean the next Bitcoin bull run has officially begun?

In Episode 10 of Bitcoin in Brief, Bisher and I break down the latest Bitcoin price action and look at whether this cycle is behaving differently from previous cycles.

We discuss:

☑️ Is The Bitcoin bear market over? — was this cycle shorter and shallower than previous downturns, and does that mean the traditional 4-year cycle is changing?
☑️ The October pullback theory — have Bitcoiners bee...

Bitcoin in Brief — Episode 9

Bisher is back! After missing last week’s episode while travelling, we’re back together for another edition of Bitcoin in Brief — signal, not noise.

This week we unpack some of the biggest developments and ideas shaping the Bitcoin conversation.

We start with the latest Bitcoin price, before looking at the US Clarity Act and what its latest setback means for Bitcoin and the broader market. We also discuss the proposed US Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and why Bitcoiners shouldn’t be sitting around waiting for government approval.

From there...

Bitcoin self-custody is a financial superpower, but it comes with a high level of personal responsibility.

What does it really mean to take self-custody of your Bitcoin?

In this episode of the Bitcoin with ZT Podcast, I sit down with self-custody expert Fin Creighton for a deep dive into one of the most important—and often misunderstood—aspects of owning Bitcoin.

Recent events in the Bitcoin hardware wallet space have raised important questions about security and trust. But rather than focusing on one particular device or manufacturer, this conversation takes a step back and...

Bitcoin in Brief — Episode 8

Today’s episode is a little different. Bisher is travelling international, so I’m flying solo!

Bisher will be back with me next week, but in the meantime there is plenty to talk about.

We start with a look one of the tools that is fantastic for understanding Bitcoin at a deeper level beyond price, called the Time Chain Calendar.

Then, we talk about how one of America's biggest fast food chains - Steak n Shake - is performing since commencing accepting Bitcoin as payment 1 year a...

After a huge month for Bitcoin, sentiment is suddenly turning bullish again.

Is this the beginning of the next major move?

In this week’s Bitcoin in Brief, Zane and Bisher break down Bitcoin’s recent price performance, the macro signals they’re watching, and why the growing “debasement trade” could be pushing both Bitcoin and gold higher.

They also discuss the evolution of the Bitcoin circular economy following Square’s latest move to expand Bitcoin payments across its massive merchant network.

In this episode:

⚡ Bitcoin’s big August — are we entering a...

What does it really mean to become financially sovereign?

In this episode of The Bitcoin with ZT Podcast, I sit down with GG from Bull Bitcoin for a wide-ranging conversation about freedom, privacy, self-custody and the future of Bitcoin.

We begin with a question I plan to ask every guest on this show:

What is the true purpose of Bitcoin?

Is Bitcoin simply an investment and a savings technology? Or is it something much bigger—a tool that gives individuals the ability to take greater control over their money and financial li...

Bitcoin is moving again - but are you thinking about your Bitcoin strategy the right way?

In this week's episode of Bitcoin in Brief, Bisher and I zoom out from the day-to-day price action to look at the bigger picture.

Where are we in the current Bitcoin cycle? What does the next halving in 2028 mean? And why is it important to understand that beyond "price", Bitcoin is "freedom money"!

We also tackle a question that affects almost every Bitcoiner:

Should you buy now - or wait for the next dip?
<...

Bitcoin in Brief — Episode 5

After almost 10 months of Bitcoin chopping sideways, the market is finally moving. So... is this the start of the next Bitcoin bull run?

In Episode 5 of Bitcoin in Brief, Bisher and I take a look at the recent price action and ask what has changed—and, more importantly, what Bitcoiners should be doing now.

We discuss the significance of Bitcoin moving through key resistance levels, why bear markets can end when bad news stops moving price lower, and why waiting for the "perfect" lower entry price could come with a si...

What happens when an ordinary Australian family starts looking seriously at Bitcoin?

In this episode of Bitcoin with ZT, I sit down with Australian Bitcoiners Matt & Bobbie to talk about their journey into Bitcoin, why they believe Aussie families should be paying attention to Bitcoin.

We discuss the challenges facing Australian families today — including the rising cost of living, housing affordability and the growing difficulty of achieving the traditional Australian dream — and whether Bitcoin can give families another path towards financial independence and a more hopeful future.

We also get practical.

Matt...

Bitcoin in Brief – Episode 4

What happens when you compare the world of Bitcoin from inside Australia to the rapidly evolving US market?

Bisher has now spent around 10 days operating from the US, and in this episode he shares what he's seeing on the ground—from the size of Bitcoin transactions to the significantly lower friction he's experiencing compared with Australia. What can Australian Bitcoiners learn from the US environment?

We also revisit the recent Coldcard security exploit and the important lessons it has for...

One of the biggest moments in Bitcoin's history is here - a battle for Bitcoin's real purpose and a contentious improvement proposal known as BIP110.

BIP110 claims that the Bitcoin network should be solely limited to the transmission of monetary data.

Whilst the legacy policy implementation, seeks to remove those limits to allow the relaying and embedding of non-monetary data on the blockchain.

In this episode of Bitcoin with ZT, I sit down with Matt Hill, CEO of Start9, for a deep but accessible conversation about this topic and the vital importance of...

One of the biggest Bitcoin security incidents in recent years has sent shockwaves through the self-custody community.

In this week's episode of Bitcoin in Brief, Zane Truscott and Bisher Khudeira unpack the Coldcard security incident and discuss the practical steps Bitcoiners should be taking right now to protect their funds.

We also explore why inflation quietly destroys purchasing power over time and how Bitcoin changes that equation. We also take a quick look at how Bitcoin is demonetising gold with every passing year.

Each week we'll cut through the noise, ignore the hype, and focus on the Bitcoin stories that actually matter for investors, savers and anyone looking to build greater financial sovereignty.

In this week's episode:

🟠 Is the Bitcoin 4-Year Cycle Still Intact?

In this powerful conversation, I sit down with author of Bitcoin Evangelism and Parallel, and co-founder of Club Orange, Brian De Mint, to explore a side of Bitcoin that doesn’t get nearly enough attention — the social, psychological and human layer.

This episode goes far beyond price and speculation.

Brian shares why Bitcoin is not just a financial technology, but part of a much bigger shift toward personal responsibility, community resilience and parallel systems that empower individuals outside of the legacy financial structure.

We dive into:

In a world full of noise, complexity, and constant distraction… sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is come back to simplicity.

In this solo session, Zane breaks down why understanding Bitcoin fundamentals matters now more than ever.

We’re living through a period of massive transition — where the cracks in the traditional financial system are becoming harder to ignore, and where accelerating technologies like AI are set to reshape jobs, opportunity, and the global wealth gap.

Against this backdrop, Bitcoin isn’t just another...
