About this listen

In this episode we unravels the hidden flaws in our everyday money system and reveals why cryptocurrency isn't just hype—it's the inevitable evolution of finance. Journey through history from ancient barter and the gold standard's rigid stability to fiat currency's inflationary illusion, where endless printing erodes your wealth while benefiting banks and governments. Drawing on raw insights from experts like Michael Saylor, Luke Belmar, Tom Lee, Marc Andreessen, and Andreas Antonopoulos, we expose real-world stories of debanking, hyperinflation in countries like Argentina and Venezuela, and the emotional toll of a trust-based system gone wrong. Plus, unpack the game-changing GENIUS Act of 2025 and why smart investors are shifting to crypto for sovereignty and growth. Whether you're a fiat skeptic or crypto curious, this hour-long deep dive will inspire you to rethink your portfolio and reclaim financial power.
