Prepping for Pole Shift | The Confab 24: Business Cat Max sits down for a proper chat with Business Cat—cohost of Rock Paper Bitcoin and founder of the Central PA Bitcoin Meetup—to unpack his big thesis: cyclical pole shifts and what that could mean for human survival. We explore physical evidence claims (from Arctic fossil layers and flash-frozen mammoths to wave erosion on ancient structures), the mechanics of geomagnetic excursions and potential crustal movement, and why some modern elites might be digging underground or racing to space. Business Cat outlines a pragmatic, hopeful preparedness mindset: focus on high ground, redundancy (including floating platforms), skills, community, and sovereignty—while noting why Bitcoiners, with their self-reliance and antifragile tech instincts, are unusually well placed for turbulent decades ahead.We also touch homeschooling, meetups, and practical steps for resilience: food, water, tools, fitness, neighbourly collaboration, and measured use of sats to build capability. Whether or not you buy the full pole-shift model, it’s an engaging framework for long-term thinking, with pointers to dig deeper. A glass-half-full take on uncomfortable possibilities—and a call to prepare without becoming paralysed.BUSINESS CAT:
