## Resource

Daniel Batten joins Swan Signal Live to argue Bitcoin’s next leap depends less on deeper essays and more on an “influence upgrade” tailored to mainstream, institutional, and local communities. The hosts explore trust barriers, ambassador-style communication, circular-economy usage, and how to create adoption catalysts, then pivot to tariffs, bottom signals, quantum risk, and market narratives
