Two years ago, Digital Matter Theory and the $NAT token were introduced as an experiment in redefining what Bitcoin could become. Today, that experiment has evolved into a live, measurable force inside Bitcoin’s mining economy. With hash price collapsing to all-time lows and miner revenues under historic pressure, the Bitcoin security budget problem is no longer theoretical; it’s visible on every chart.

We revisit the origin of DMT, the birth of $NAT, and the emergence of UNATs and @dmtnatcats. We break down why miner redirects matter, how 40% of Bitcoin’s hash power is now acknowledging NAT, and why the next phase of Bitcoin’s evolution hinges on incentives, not ideology. From the multiplayer Blockpad mint to the unexpected breakthroughs in digital physics, this conversation pulls together two years of discovery and honest reflection on where Bitcoin must go next to survive.

Whether you’re a miner, investor, or someone who cares about Bitcoin’s long-term security, this episode shows why $NAT didn’t just appear at the right time; it appeared when Bitcoin needed it most.

Bitcoin just spent a year at all-time highs without a classic blow-off top—so did we actually already live through the bull market without feeling it? In this episode we walk through the red days, the compressed four-year cycle, and why a 60K–70K BTC “bottom” could trigger a slow-motion extinction event for miners. We break down what that means for network security, why miner incentives matter more than most people want to admit, and how NAT as a second subsidy fits into this picture if hash price keeps getting crushed.

From there we zoom out and compare this cycle to the last one: DeFi, NFTs, GameFi, and the Metaverse versus Ordinals, memecoins-as-a-service, AI agents, and the OtherSide. We talk about why the metaverse hype died so fast, whether Yuga’s $500M land sale can ever be justified, and how insanely fast humanoid robots are evolving in China, Russia, and the U.S.—plus what that means for labor, isolation, and the inevitability of digital economies. Finally, we connect it all to the macro race between China and the U.S.: gold versus digital rails, state-level attack surfaces on Bitcoin, and why all of these tailwinds converge into a “lightning in a bottle” moment for NAT, DMT, and Bitcoin-aligned incentives.

If you’re a miner, builder, or long-term crypto investor trying to understand what happens if this really was the top—and how to position around security budgets, hash power, and new subsidy layers—this one’s for you. Drop your questions in the comments, follow us on X, and join the NAT Telegram to go deeper into the miner incentive war. Nothing in this video is financial advice; do your own research.

We explore the deeper parallels between global complacency around climate change and Bitcoin’s own looming security budget crisis. As we draw connections between scientific foresight and the importance of building long-term solutions early, like the @natgmi token’s proactive approach to reinforcing miner incentives before block rewards fully erode. We analyze why 40% of Bitcoin’s total hash power now participates through @AntPoolofficial, @SpiderPool_com, and @f2pool_official, marking a critical milestone for miner alignment. The discussion expands into how market manipulation, shallow narratives, and copycat projects distort crypto’s growth, contrasting these with organic innovation rooted in Bitcoin’s principles. The conversation closes with the DMT protocol’s vision to extend Bitcoin’s data across all chains and a sharp look at @Zcash privacy resurgence as institutional influence tightens around Bitcoin.

Bitcoin doesn’t fix itself—people do.

We explore why complacency has quietly become Bitcoin’s biggest threat and why human intervention, not blind faith, will determine its future. As we challenge the myth that Bitcoin behaves like nature—that if we “just wait,” it will evolve on its own. Instead, reveal how its human-made architecture depends on aligned incentives, maintenance, and active participation to survive.

We trace the debate from store-of-value versus peer-to-peer cash toward the real issue: how to keep miners profitable, decentralization intact, and Bitcoin’s security budget sustainable. With shrinking miner revenues, developer centralization, and @Tether_to entry into mining, we ask whether institutional “decentralization” is really decentralization at all.

The discussion dives into how the @natgmi token and Digital Matter Theory (DMT) introduce new incentive loops—meme to market cap to miner subsidy—that could strengthen Bitcoin’s economic design from the ground up. If Bitcoin’s problem is incentive-shaped, then the solution must be incentive-shaped too.

We break down what Tether’s mining move means for the ecosystem, how $NAT’s loops realign the economics of security, and why this could mark the beginning of a new phase for Bitcoin—one where creators, miners, and markets finally work in sync.

Watch until the end where we connect everything back to human coordination, digital matter, and the long-term alignment Bitcoin needs to survive.

We unveil The 10 NATmandments — a structured framework for identifying projects with true 1000x potential. These aren’t memes or narratives; they’re principles that separate technological substance from market noise.

The returning Memecoin Moses dissect each commandment in detail — from solving Bitcoin’s security budget crisis and addressing miner centralization, to exploring how Digital Matter Theory (DMT) introduces a new primitive that anchors digital value to non-arbitrary patterns in Bitcoin itself.

They analyze historical parallels with Ethereum, DeFi, and NFTs, compare Lindy effects across ecosystems, and show how measurable network adoption, energy expenditure, and Reed’s Law still govern crypto’s biggest winners. The conversation culminates in a powerful discussion on human alignment, exploring how decentralization and miner incentives could push Bitcoin toward long-term sustainability—and even a Type I civilization.
