In this video, I do a year-end review of 2025, with special focus on the Trump administration, Bitcoin Core going rogue, and the demise of Bitcoin treasury companies.

At the same time, we saw the return of Nick Szabo to X, as well as the Bitcoin network demonstrating its anti-fragility as we saw droves of node runners switch from Bitcoin Core to Bitcoin Knots.
