155 - Bitcoin Reserves, AI Hype, and the Real Risk to Crypto Adoption

In this episode of Sometimes Crypto, we break down the biggest stories shaping Bitcoin and crypto right now—from state-level Bitcoin reserve proposals and concerns around asset consolidation, to why AI is dominating headlines while crypto quietly builds real infrastructure. We discuss whether large buyers like Strategy truly pose a systemic risk, how abandoned asset laws could impact centralized crypto holdings, and why self-custody remains non-negotiable in an era of growing surveillance and regulation. We also explore real-world Bitcoin adoption stories, security failures tied to mobile devices, precious metals hitting all-time highs, and why volatility, fear, and macro uncertainty don’t invalidate Bitcoin’s long-term thesis. As always, this is an unscripted, honest conversation about markets, incentives, and where crypto fits in a rapidly changing financial landscape. #BitcoinAdoption #BTC #CryptoNews #DigitalAssets #SelfCustody #AIvsCrypto #MacroEconomics #SometimesCrypto#bitcoincash ****************************************************************************
