  • Ep. 723 Paolo Ardoino Explains the Future of Bitcoin, AI & Global Finance
    May 13 2026

    In this episode of the Crypto 101 Podcast, Paolo Ardoino, CTO of Bitfinex, shares the incredible journey of helping build one of crypto’s oldest surviving exchanges through hacks, market crashes, and multiple Bitcoin cycles. Paolo explains why Bitfinex eliminated trading fees, how tokenized securities could unlock capital access for emerging markets, and why Bitcoin remains the ultimate hedge against global instability. The conversation dives deep into Lightning Network scaling, AI agents transacting with Bitcoin, institutional adoption, and why self-custody still matters despite the rise of ETFs. Paolo also gives his perspective on quantum computing risks, Bitcoin’s future beyond the four-year cycle, and why owning even one Bitcoin could become life-changing.
