Inflection Point

In this first episode of Inflection Point, we explore the accelerating convergence between traditional finance and crypto as institutional adoption begins reshaping the foundations of global financial infrastructure. The conversation examines ETFs, DeFi innovation, market structure shifts, institutional flows, and how evolving investor behavior is changing Bitcoin and digital asset markets. Along the way, we discuss regulation, credit markets, technology limitations, and the broader implications of finance moving onchain. Enjoy!

In this episode, novelist Tibor Fischer joins Supply Shock to discuss why Bitcoin finally found its way into fiction, using satire and storytelling to explore crypto culture, Austrian economics, and the human motivations behind speculation, belief, and escape. Fischer reflects on Bitcoin’s ideological roots, the difference between Bitcoin and broader crypto, and why markets, not narratives, ultimately decide what endures. Enjoy!
