Is this the start of a financial revolution? In this explosive episode of Chatter, we dive into GameStop’s jaw-dropping decision to add Bitcoin to its treasury — a move years in the making, driven by grassroots internet communities and unapologetic Bitcoin maximalists.

🎙️ Guest: Ben Wehrman – podcaster, blogger, GME/BTC evangelist, and certified memelord – joins me to break down:

- What GameStop’s $1.3B notes mean 💸

- Why Bitcoin is more than “just crypto”

- How memes, markets, and money collided

- The role of Reddit, Twitter, and even Nostr in financial rebellion

- Predictions for the future of fiat vs. Bitcoin
