Jason interviews Professor Campbell R. Harvey from Duke University’s Fuqua School of Business and the author of DeFi and the Future of Finance as they talk about the yield curve and Decentralized Finance. Harvey discusses the phenomenon of an inverted yield curve, which has predicted every recession for the last several decades. Harvey expressed his concern about the current inverted yield curve, which has been in place for 12 months, traditionally leading to a recession. Jason and Campbell also discuss the significance of an inverted yield curve and the potential of decentralized finance (defi) in the financial world. They identified problems with the current financial system and the possibility of solutions through DeFi, such as the need for an alternative to the SWIFT system for wire transfers and the ability to store and use value in transactions. With the advent of WEB 3.0 and the decentralization of monetary assets, DeFi is truly set to revolutionize the world in all economic aspects especially finance.

Bitcoin is in the news, and there's an amazing rush on cryptocurrencies and seemingly a new coin coming out every day. So it's becoming more obvious that we're in a bubble.

But what's the real future of cryptocurrencies?

Jason Hartman talks to Tama Churchouse, co-founder of Churchouse Publishing Limited and lead cryptocurrency analyst at Stansberry Churchouse Research, about what's going on in the world of cryptocurrency. Tama explains the differences between things like Bitcoin and Etherium, and the two look into what the government's future role in cryptocurrency will look like.

Key Takeaways:

[1:21] Why is there a sudden runup in cryptocurrencies?

[6:00] The average transaction fee for Bitcoin is making it impossible to scale

[10:06] There are currently over 1,500 different cryptocurrencies with a market cap of around $520 billion

[12:01] There are currently protocols being written on the blockchain that you can buy into

[14:35] An explanation of "CryptoKitties" and how it can be applied to other avenues

[16:05] Etherium created a standardized token and how it's aiding in ICOs

[18:13] Etherium doesn't scale and is expensive to use, creating some serious drawbacks

[19:27] How Tama learned about cryptocurrency

[26:08] Is decentralized decision making really a good idea or will it just bog everything down?

[30:21] Cryptocurrency isn't really a great investment at the moment (perhaps it will become one), so what do we do with it today?

[32:41] Bitcoin mania has people declaring it a storer of value, but it takes at LEAST a generation to be able to make such a claim

[35:01] Will the government let cryptocurrencies go on (and can they even squash it if they try)?

[38:10] Tama believes 2018 will bring a wave of regulations on to cryptocurrencies

[40:59] How Tama would destroy Bitcoin if he really wanted to

[43:53] One cryptocurrency you SHOULD NOT BUY

"The government doesn't like competition in anything, especially currency"

"ICOs are, by far and away, Etherum's biggest proof of concept use case at the moment"

The worlds of cryptocurrencies and crowdfunding can work in harmony, but the world of the long term cryptocurrency lover and day traders may not be so harmonious.

Jason Hartman talks with David Drake, founder of LDJ Capital, about what's going on in the cryptocurrency world, regulations on the ICO market, and how currencies like Bitcoin might be incorporated into international currency baskets.

Key Takeaways:

3:53 What kind of regulations do ICOs have?

8:33 Cryptocurrencies are now seeing two worlds collide: the old guard of people who are buying and holding versus the hedge funds coming in to trade and make money quickly

12:32 G7 might put Bitcoin into their currency baskets because they're anti-inflationary

15:27 Can cryptocurrencies overcome any potential opposition from governments and central banks?

Is virtual real estate a real money making opportunity or are you better off going to Vegas to gamble? Jason Hartman welcomes Steve Hoffman back to the show today to hear about the latest developments regarding real estate, digital assets and speculation in the metaverse.
