Our CEO & Co-Founder, Kent Halliburton, recently appeared on the popular Simply Bitcoin podcast to share his perspective on the global debt crisis, the future of money, and Bitcoin’s role in building a freer financial system. The conversation ranged from U.S. government spending to the societal impacts of “global weirding,” and underscored why Bitcoin—and Bitcoin mining—offer a critical solution at this moment in history.

The Looming Debt Spiral and Bitcoin’s Role

The episode was framed around a recent article warning of a looming debt crisis and the risk of a debt-driven economic heart attack. As Kent emphasized, the pattern is clear:

  • Governments continue to print money to service ballooning debts.
  • This erodes the purchasing power of everyday citizens.
  • Wealth inequality widens, as those holding assets benefit while wage earners fall behind.

“Every time they print money, people that own assets get wealthier on paper. Everybody else living paycheck to paycheck gets poorer,” Kent explained.

Bitcoin, with its fixed supply of 21 million, stands in stark contrast to the endless expansion of fiat currencies. It acts as a hedge against inflation while providing a transparent, algorithmic monetary policy that governments cannot manipulate.

Global Weirding: A Broken Relationship With Reality

Kent introduced the concept of “global weirding”—the strange societal and economic distortions that arise when money is divorced from reality. Since 1971, when the U.S. fully abandoned the gold standard, financial systems have drifted into abstraction.

“When you detach money from reality, bad things happen,” Kent noted. “Bitcoin is the spell-breaker. It anchors us back to truth, to physics, and to reality itself.”

This perspective reflects a core belief at Sazmining: fix the money, fix the world.

From Skepticism to Adoption: Giants Are Turning to Bitcoin

The discussion highlighted how legacy finance leaders—once skeptical of Bitcoin—are now warning of unsustainable debt and looking to hard assets. Kent reminded listeners that early Bitcoiners like Hal Finney predicted multi-million-dollar valuations for Bitcoin because they understood its potential as sound money.

As more influential voices validate these ideas, Kent sees this as a signal of accelerating adoption:
“Ray Dalio, Michael Saylor, Larry Fink—they’re making the flip. And now it’s becoming socially acceptable. This is what Bitcoin adoption looks like.”

Bitcoin Mining: Free Money for Free Markets

Perhaps most powerfully, Kent tied these macroeconomic discussions back to Bitcoin mining. He described mining as the “second zero-to-one innovation” of Bitcoin: a decentralized money printer open to anyone who follows the network rules.

This, he argued, is what restores true capitalism:

  • Fiat systems are built on centralized money printing, which distorts free markets.
  • Bitcoin allows anyone to participate in money creation, leveling the playing field.
  • Mining unlocks human creativity, rewarding those who produce real value rather than those closest to the money printer.

At Sazmining, we’re proud to help individuals and businesses plug into this system—earning wild sats powered by renewable energy, without middlemen or surveillance.

Preparing for What’s Next

Kent was candid about the road ahead: volatility, political pushback, and potential black swan events. Yet his outlook remains clear:

“When you realize that Bitcoin is money—the place to store the value of your life’s work—the price doesn’t matter. It’s about securing your savings, your future, and your family’s future.”

This conviction underpins Sazmining’s mission: to make mining—and true Bitcoin ownership—accessible to everyone.

Why This Matters for Bitcoiners

Kent’s appearance on Simply Bitcoin reinforces the urgency of taking action now:

  • The global debt spiral is accelerating.
  • Traditional assets and fiat currencies are under strain.
  • Bitcoin mining offers a direct way to opt out and secure real sovereignty.

At Sazmining, we believe this is more than an investment strategy—it’s a movement toward freedom, resilience, and truth.
