In this episode of Bitcoin Banter, Michael, Tony and guest Sophi discuss the media’s latest pandemic scaremongering over Hantavirus - and why it might be just another convenient excuse to fire up the money printers.

They also cover Trump’s $1.2 trillion Golden Dome missile defense plan, Modi pleading with Indians to stop buying gold as the rupee hits record lows, UK kids using fake mustaches to dodge age verification, teens hacking digital ID databases and our Donkey of the Week - Leonidas NFT, who demanded the BIP-110 be withdrawn - announced that ord.io is shutting down after running out of money.
