Why Ghee Beats Seed Oils—And Fiat

In this episode of The Bitcoin Business Podcast, Brandon Karpeles talks with Patrick, founder of GreatGhee.com, a Bitcoin-native business making high-quality ghee directly from local farms in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley.

Patrick shares how his entrepreneurial path—from flipping iPhones, to launching honey products, to experimenting with raw milk—ultimately led him to build a ghee business rooted in Bitcoin values: sovereignty, low time preference, and direct relationships with farmers.

They discuss:

• Why ghee is the superior fat compared to seed oils and even “organic” olive oil
• How building on a Bitcoin standard changes urgency and business strategy
• The role of Nostr in fostering a grassroots business community
• Challenges of educating both consumers and farmers about Bitcoin
• Why local, trust-based supply chains matter more than slick marketing
• Patrick’s vision for supporting Bitcoin circular economies while keeping products affordable

Patrick’s story is a blueprint for how young entrepreneurs can start small, learn fast, and stack sats by solving real problems with real products.
