Episode notes

Thomas Jeegers joins the Bitcoin Infinity Show to talk about MiCA, self-custody, and why Europe keeps regulating itself into a corner. He explains how the block size war proved Bitcoin was genuinely decentralized, why mining pool concentration worries him less than it worries most Bitcoiners, and how compliance costs land on the customer without preventing any actual fraud.
