Bitcoin As Collateral is the Endgame!

Show Notes

Bitcoin as collateral is the real endgame. Modern finance runs on repo markets, derivatives margin, prime brokerage, and secured lending — all built on pledgeable assets. In this episode, Adam Livingston breaks down why Bitcoin is emerging as premium collateral, how it competes with U.S. Treasuries, and what happens when the apex asset becomes the base layer of global credit. If Bitcoin becomes the dominant collateral asset, liquidity reorganizes around it — and every industry gets repriced.
