Round Up 14 - AI Could Push People Towards Bitcoin Faster Than People Will

We weigh up why Bitcoin feels quiet right now while AI grabs the spotlight, then argue about whether AI agents could push Bitcoin adoption faster than humans ever will. We move from Bukele in Haiti and the UN’s credibility gap to cyber warfare, conference culture, and practical self-custody steps for South Africans.
• Bitcoin sentiment cooling off and why price still drives attention
• Bukele’s Haiti intervention as security play and possible realpolitik
• UN peacekeeping incentives and why bureaucracy fails on the ground
• Lugano conference impressions and the shift towards AI and freedom tech
• AI agents, microservices markets and why Lightning could fit machine payments
• Open source AI versus closed models and the risk of an AI bubble unwind
• Global encryption, cyber attack spikes and “software war” as modern conflict
• Jack Dorsey’s Cash App Bitcoin rewards and quiet adoption levers
• South African draft regulation reversal as breathing room to build and prepare
keep an eye out for the property rights defense Twitter page. we're gonna be hosting a series of self-custody workshops specifically on how to assemble your own seed signer device and how to use it.
