In this episode, USC professor Nik Bhatia builds on his conversation with economics student Demian Schatt, addressing new questions about Bitcoin’s hard cap, credit systems, and global accessibility. Demian asks whether the fixed supply of 21 million coins limits Bitcoin’s adoption and how it fits into a world reliant on credit. Nik explains the dynamics of lending in a Bitcoin-based system, explores the role of stablecoins like Tether in volatile economies, and discusses Bitcoin’s potential to empower individuals in inflationary environments. They close by exploring whether Bitcoin could reduce inequality and how its adoption might impact wealth distribution over time. The Bitcoin Layer is a bitcoin and global macroeconomic research firm. Subscribe and turn on notifications for TBL on YouTube.Subscribe to TBL’s research letter: https://thebitcoinlayer.com/subscribeFollow TBL on X: https://twitter.com/TheBitcoinLayerSubscribe to The Bitcoin Layer on your favorite podcast platform.Join the official TBL channel on Telegram: https://t.me/thebitcoinlayerofficialUse code TBLYT10 for 10% off all The Bitcoin Layer Merch at http://TheBitcoinLayer.com/merch Block Height 872125 Contribute to The Bitcoin Layer via Lightning Network: [email protected] Bhatia's Twitter: https://twitter.com/timevalueofbtcCreative Director Matthew Ball's Twitter: https://twitter.com/matthewrball #TheBitcoinLayer #NikBhatia #Bitcoin #WhatIsBitcoin #BitcoinForBeginners #LearnBitcoin #HowBitcoinWorks #BitcoinExplained #BitcoinBasics #BitcoinEducation #BitcoinMining101 #BitcoinAndSavings #IsBitcoinWorthIt #HowToUseBitcoin #BitcoinMadeSimple #BitcoinForStudents #WhyBitcoin #BitcoinQuestions #UnderstandingBTC #BitcoinFuture #BitcoinInPlainEnglish #BitcoinVsMoney #BitcoinStarter #BitcoinValueExplained #BitcoinJourney #BitcoinAndEconomics #BitcoinNewbie #Bitcoin101 #BitcoinTips #BitcoinDemystified #IntroToBitcoin #FirstStepsInBitcoin #BitcoinInvesting101 #BitcoinAsMoney #BitcoinForEveryone #BitcoinHistory #BitcoinWalletBasics #Bloomberg #Analysis #Charts #Tradingview #InvestmentStrategy #MarketWatch #StockMarket #PassiveInvesting #IndexFunds #FinancialMarkets #MarketWatch #FreeMarket #FreeMarkets #Markets #USTreasury #TreasuryBills #BalanceSheet #FED #Debt #Inflation #Statistic #Rates #Interest #Asset #Bitcoin #Dollar #Sats #BTC #Gold #Market #Trading #Currency #Crypto #Analysis #Investment #News #Finance #Education #Blockchain #Mining #BitcoinMining #macro
