In this Coin Stories podcast episode, Natalie Brunell interviews CJ Konstantinos, the founder of the Peoples Reserve, about his journey into Bitcoin, starting from buying it at $150 to his current views on its potential as pristine collateral. CJ explains how understanding Bitcoin mining and its cost of production led him to see it as a savings technology rather than just an investment. He introduces Peoples Reserve as a market maker aiming to provide tools for people to benefit from Bitcoin, such as self-repaying mortgages and Bitcoin bonds, which allow users to leverage their Bitcoin without selling it and incurring capital gains taxes. The discussion covers the monetization of Bitcoin, its integration into the traditional financial system, and the potential for governments and municipalities to adopt strategic Bitcoin reserves. CJ also shares his macro forecast, expressing optimism about Bitcoin's role in recapitalizing the republic and potentially preventing a hyperinflationary depression.
