In this episode of the Farmers Finance Show, I set out why the next “gold rush” may be digital: the commoditisation of data via Bitcoin, and why sound money principles matter for farmers, producers and citizens alike. We compare historic monetary pivots (from Bretton Woods to the Nixon shock) with today’s debate over Bitcoin, CBDCs and financial sovereignty, and discuss why incentives, fixed supply and immutable ledgers could realign value creation with real-world goods and services. Producer Paul and I also explore the noisy public narrative around Satoshi’s identity, the BTC/BSV schism, and the controversy surrounding Craig Wright — including claims about supercomputing resources and litigation such as Tulip Trading. Beyond personalities, we focus on education, evidence, and individual responsibility (keys, custody and security), and why fixing incentives in money can help fix downstream systems: food, health, law and politics.
