Transcript
- 0:00Oh, looks like America's money printer just broke the sound
- 0:04barrier and it's monetary. Pearl Harbor in Japan.
- 0:07They're handing out free money again.
- 0:10Jay Pals over here whispering about ending QT and gold.
- 0:15Your grandpas safe haven just got wrecked and yet bitcoins
- 0:20just sitting there like a loaded slingshot waiting for gravity to
- 0:24flip or gravity to fall. Shout out to Uncle Grandpa, but
- 0:28buckle up because today we're breaking down the great $38
- 0:31trillion Bitcoin reset. Because when every central bank
- 0:35on earth is printing and $140 trillion in Fiat is hunting,
- 0:40just two to three million Bitcoin available on the open
- 0:43market, tackling fuel, Well, $1,000,000 Bitcoin is not a
- 0:47crackpot theory anymore. It's 10th grade math.
- 0:56Let's start with Japan. New Prime Minister Sunay
- 0:59Takaichi just ordered a fresh stimulus package.
- 1:02More subsidies, more handouts, more solutions paid for with
- 1:06monopoly money. Electricity and gas subsidies,
- 1:09regional grants, even wage incentives for small businesses.
- 1:13And as a part of it, they're spending billions more on
- 1:15defense and, quote, strategic investments with the US, which
- 1:20translated from politician to English, means we're printing to
- 1:25fight in with more inflation. That's a bold strategy, Cotton,
- 1:29because if that works, Zimbabwe would be the richest country on
- 1:33the planet. And this is the same game
- 1:36everywhere now, a global contest to see who can debase their
- 1:40currency the fastest without the peasants figuring out what's
- 1:43going on. There it is. the US is basically
- 1:47$38 trillion in debt, and that's before the next bailout, war or
- 1:52emergency spending bill gets tacked on.
- 1:55That is not sustainable. That is not normal.
- 1:58That's end game territory. For decades, the dollar's
- 2:01reserve status let America live like a spoiled trust fund kid.
- 2:06Print, Spend, borrow, repeat. But that exorbitant privilege is
- 2:11cracking. The dollar's share of global
- 2:13reserves just hit its lowest level in 30 years.
- 2:16Foreigners don't want our paper anymore.
- 2:19China and Japan, America's biggest lenders, have flipped
- 2:22from buyers to sellers of Treasuries.
- 2:24So who's left to fund the party? Washington's answer?
- 2:29Stable coins. You've heard about the Great
- 2:31Reset now meet its evil twin, the Great Stable Coin Reset.
- 2:35This is basically the government's plan to repackage
- 2:39the same old debt Ponzi with digital lipstick.
- 2:42They're not fixing the system, they're moving it to the cloud.
- 2:46Stable coin legislation backed by U.S., Treasuries or T-bills
- 2:52will create a market that will expand in U.S. dollar usage via
- 2:58the stable coins all around the world.
- 3:00And I think the 2 trillion is a very reasonable number and I can
- 3:08see it greatly exceeding that. Stable coins are the new weapon
- 3:14of choice. When someone mints USDT or USDC,
- 3:17the issuer buys real U.S. Treasuries to back it, and that
- 3:21creates artificial demand for the dollar.
- 3:24But through private crypto shit coin rails.
- 3:27And Washington loves it because if they can regulate stable
- 3:31coins, they control them. They can literally turn the
- 3:34entire ecosystem into a Treasury demand machine.
- 3:38Even Treasury Secretary Scott Besson said it a $2 trillion
- 3:41stable coin market market is the goal.
- 3:44And at that size, Tether and Circle would.
- 3:46And at that size, Tether and Circle would hold more U.S. debt
- 3:50than China and Japan combined. You can't make this up.
- 3:54They're basically saying we can't sell enough bonds the old
- 3:58fashioned way, so let's coerce stable coin issuers to buy them.
- 4:01And while Washington tries to duct tape the Treasury market
- 4:04with stablecoin witchcraft, the real story is happening in the
- 4:08background. The largest monetary detonation
- 4:10in human history already happened, and most of the world
- 4:14slept through it. Global M2, The total money
- 4:16supply is now 140 trillion, up almost 8% in just six months.
- 4:22That's 10 trillion in fresh liquidity since spring.
- 4:25That's not stimulus, that's the basement.
- 4:28Stimulus is actually stim useless.
- 4:32Every new dollar, yen, euro and peso printed steals from
- 4:36existing ones. You don't really see your wallet
- 4:39shrinking, but you're purchasing powers bleeding out faster than
- 4:42a Fiat economist credibility. The issue that has always swept
- 4:45down through the century, and it will have to be fought once
- 4:48again, is the people versus the banks.
- 4:50And I think it's a quote that defines the moment that we're
- 4:54in. Ultimately, the banks and the
- 4:59bond market have won for 40 years.
- 5:01Policy, economic policy in this country, be it what the Fed has
- 5:05done with rates, be it with the offshoring of the industrial
- 5:08base to lower deficits or, excuse me, to lower inflation,
- 5:14reduce costs, etcetera. It has all been done with one
- 5:18goal in mind, which is to subjugate the US middle and
- 5:22working class to support the real value of the bond market
- 5:26and and by extension, Wall Street.
- 5:28And that has not been taken too far.
- 5:31And so if we want to be where I think most Americans would agree
- 5:36we want to be, then, yeah. Pain is all in the eye of the
- 5:39beholder, right. It's something I say all the
- 5:41time is, you know, what's normal for the spider is chaos for the
- 5:43fly, right. If you if, if you own lots of
- 5:46long term Treasury bonds, you know, Yeah, What I'm advocating
- 5:49would be very painful. If you own Bitcoin.
- 5:52If you own Bitcoin, if you own gold, if you own productive
- 5:55businesses, if you are a working class person whose wages are
- 5:58going to rise. As fast or.
- 6:00Faster than inflation, maybe for the first time in 50 years,
- 6:06that's that. Then that's not as painful.
- 6:09And I think as a country we wake up and you have a more
- 6:11rebalanced economy and more self-sufficient economy where
- 6:14you're not as reliant on potential adversaries for key
- 6:16things. It's tricky, it's bumpy.
- 6:20I'm there's no guarantee it's going to work.
- 6:23We let it go on so long. It's a little bit more market
- 6:28driven, paradoxically, right. Ultimately, if we do those
- 6:32things, there's there should be more inflation, but that
- 6:35inflation is a market signal telling us, hey, you've under
- 6:40invested for 40 years in your industrial base, in your working
- 6:44class, in your skilled trades, in your young people and now you
- 6:47need to catch up and doing that is going to be.
- 6:50Inflationary and that's. That, you know, that is just
- 6:54the, the, the fallout of the decisions we've made over the
- 6:57last 30-40 years. And Fed chairs Rome Powell just
- 6:59confirmed that quantitative tightening is about to end.
- 7:02He said, quote, we may approach that point in the coming months.
- 7:06Translation. We've drained all the liquidity
- 7:08we can without completely breaking the system.
- 7:11The banking systems out of spare cash.
- 7:14The feds reverse repo facility, their overflow account that held
- 7:182.5 trillion in excess cash is basically empty, and the regular
- 7:23repo market where banks borrow overnight is starting to spike
- 7:27again. And that's exactly what happened
- 7:29in 2019 before the Fed quietly restarted QE.
- 7:34When the repo market screams, the Fed prints every single
- 7:39time. Expect that the process of
- 7:40getting inflation sustainably down to 2% has a long way to go.
- 7:45The labor market remains tight, although improvements in labor
- 7:48supply and a gradual easing in demand continue to move it into
- 7:52better balance. GDP growth in the third quarter
- 7:56was quite strong, but like most forecasters, we expect growth
- 8:00growth to moderate in coming quarters of course by.
- 8:06Refusing to treat climate. Change like this is thank you.
- 8:10Thank you very much, disaster. Thank you very much.
- 8:15Thank you. Just close this fucking door.
- 8:20Close the door. That clip is a total classic.
- 8:26But now we're right back in the same trap.
- 8:28Rates too high, confidence collapses.
- 8:31They print to save the system. Inflation returns.
- 8:34Rates can't drop. They print again.
- 8:36And that's what the European Central Bank and Ray Dalio call
- 8:39the debt doom loop. And the US is leading the
- 8:43parade. Yeah, leading the parade in a
- 8:45giant clown suit. Interest payments alone just hit
- 8:481.2 trillion. That's 1/5 of the total US
- 8:51revenue. That's like maxing out your
- 8:53credit card, then taking a payday loan.
- 8:56And that payday loan is just there to cover the interest.
- 8:59But don't worry, the experts say it's under control.
- 9:03There's only two options here. Print or die at 235% global debt
- 9:08to GDP. The menu is simple default, but
- 9:12that would be political suicide, austerity, but that would be
- 9:17economic suicide. Or print.
- 9:20That's a thermodynamic inevitability.
- 9:22They chose print. They will always keep choosing
- 9:26print. Bitcoin is the very simple
- 9:27story. They are never going to stop
- 9:29printing money, so therefore Bitcoin will never stop going
- 9:32up. And if you simply think of
- 9:33Bitcoin as savings technology, all you have to do is go out,
- 9:36work hard at your job, make money, spend less than you make,
- 9:39and then put the extra savings into Bitcoin and then allow
- 9:42Bitcoin to benefit from what we know is going to happen, which
- 9:45is they are never going to stop printing money.
- 9:46And I think that that simplicity is actually very attractive to
- 9:50some cohort of investors. And now you see investors
- 9:52saying, wait a second here, this quote UN quote debasement trade
- 9:55means that I don't have to go do all that work.
- 9:57I can simply just go and buy something like Bitcoin.
- 9:59And I think that really maybe the story of finance of this
- 10:02decade is that Bitcoin is becoming the hurdle rate, right?
- 10:05Historically, we've looked at things like the S&P.
- 10:07If you go back to 2020, the S&P is up 100% since 2020.
- 10:10The priced in Bitcoin is down 90%.
- 10:12All of the returns that people are talking about in traditional
- 10:14finance, most of them are negative because no one can beat
- 10:17Bitcoin. And so if you can't beat it,
- 10:19then we just say you got to buy it.
- 10:20And I think that's what a lot of investors are starting.
- 10:22To do every regime in history has done the same thing.
- 10:25It's the physics of Fiat. Once you cross that debt
- 10:28Rubicon, there ain't no going back.
- 10:30You can't not print and here's the mechanism nobody in
- 10:35mainstream finance wants to talk about.
- 10:37When global M2 expands, Bitcoin doesn't immediately react, it
- 10:41lags. It's like a volcano.
- 10:44There's a silent build up and then a boom.
- 10:47In 2020 money supply exploded and Bitcoin followed nine months
- 10:51later with a 6X rally. Now M2 is up 7.8% year to date
- 10:56and bitcoins lagging again. History doesn't repeat, but it
- 11:00rhymes like Eminem with a hardware wallet.
- 11:03This isn't inflation, it's a wealth transfer from infinite
- 11:08ledgers to finite assets. Everyone.
- 11:11Percent expansion in global M2 historically equals about 2.8%
- 11:15upside for Bitcoin, and at 7.8% that's plus 21% before adoption
- 11:22and reflexivity even kick in. Do the math.
- 11:25The lag is the signal. The explosion is the sequel.
- 11:30Gold just had its worst week since 2008, down 6.4% in a
- 11:35single day. And that's not a panic, that's a
- 11:37rotation. Even Paypal's former president
- 11:40David Marcus said it. Sell the gold, buy Bitcoin.
- 11:45AI and Cryptozar David Sachs saying his first priority is
- 11:48exploring the possibility of a strategic Bitcoin reserve.
- 11:52Joining us right now in an exclusive interview to talk
- 11:54about that and so much more. David Marcus, he's previously
- 11:57LED crypto and payments at Meta, is the former president of
- 12:00PayPal. He's now CEO of Light Spark and
- 12:02company he launched in 2022 that's building payment
- 12:04infrastructure on the Bitcoin blockchain.
- 12:07Good morning to you. It's been a while, but it's nice
- 12:10to see you, David. Good morning.
- 12:13Let's try to, I'm just, you know, we're sort of seeing this
- 12:15revolution at least inside of Washington, it appears around
- 12:20how Congress and how this administration is going to think
- 12:23about crypto, specifically Bitcoin, and how you think that
- 12:28the things might manifest. If you could sort of walk us
- 12:30through the permutations in your mind from a regulatory
- 12:33perspective, not just on on the regulation, but also on the
- 12:37strategic reserve and things like that, how this changes
- 12:39things. Well, it's a brand new day for
- 12:43crypto in America. Frankly.
- 12:46And speaking as someone who tried to launch a project and
- 12:49worked really hard to get it off the ground here at home and
- 12:54having it shut down by the US government to having
- 12:57conversations about regulatory clarity of Bitcoin strategic
- 13:01reserve and really doing whatever it takes, frankly, for
- 13:06America to lead in this revolution that will completely
- 13:10rewire our, our whole financial system is, is quite a polarity
- 13:17flip of, of atmosphere and energy for our entire industry.
- 13:22So, you know, I'm, I'm very, very happy and excited for
- 13:25what's coming. I think we're very close to the
- 13:28precipice when it comes to falling behind here.
- 13:31And so it's it's really amazing to what does.
- 13:33The strategic reserve, Do in your mind, well look, I said
- 13:38push up the price of Bitcoin. Well, you know, I think first of
- 13:41all, if you look at the strategic reserves that the US
- 13:45government holds in, in gold, you know, we're the number one
- 13:50holder of gold in the world. And arguably, if you think of
- 13:53Bitcoin as a better version of gold, digital gold, why not
- 13:58allocate a portion of that reserve or rebalance a portion
- 14:02of that reserve to the better version?
- 14:05And you know, I think, you know, there's just a lot more
- 14:08opportunity for for growth and appreciation of Bitcoin than
- 14:13than gold in the next couple of decades.
- 14:15So I think it's a wise decision potentially.
- 14:17Capital doesn't die, it migrates.
- 14:19ETF's like Blackrock's I bit just blew past 100 billion in
- 14:24assets under management. Wall Street isn't fighting
- 14:26Bitcoin anymore, it's front running it.
- 14:29And in the corporate treasuries again, micro strategy, Trump,
- 14:32media, all the other crap. CFO's stacking hearted and plebs
- 14:35on a payday. Macro legend Luke Grorman says
- 14:38it flat. Sovereign insolvency in slow
- 14:41motion. The only way out debasement.
- 14:44China's dumping treasuries. Bricks are building gold rails.
- 14:47The dollar isn't dying, it's retiring and bitcoins taking her
- 14:52GERB. Brent's milkshake theory is
- 14:54absolutely correct around initially gold going up with the
- 14:58dollar, something I posted a long time ago on X and, and, and
- 15:02people familiar with the FOFOA blog and the readings of
- 15:06Monetary theorist, Another and friend of another will recall
- 15:10that in the late 1990s, another, another, a friend of another
- 15:16said that when the dollar system is coming to the end of its
- 15:23life, you will see the dollar and gold rise together.
- 15:27That will be the sign that the dollars because people will be
- 15:30getting squeezed into the dollar at one hand, but they'll also be
- 15:33getting out and going into gold. And so when those two things are
- 15:35rising together, that's the symptom of the end of the dollar
- 15:39system that was said 30 years ago, almost 25 years ago.
- 15:42And so yes, the milkshake theory will see the dollar squeeze
- 15:48higher. I get it.
- 15:49And gold as well. And gold, once it hits critical
- 15:55tipping point of price, and I don't know where that price is,
- 16:00but you can see hints of it. You know, Albert Marco on excess
- 16:03said a above $3000 on gold, it starts to create a problem for
- 16:07the dollar. He was right.
- 16:08You could go down, went down to 96, says about $5000 on gold.
- 16:12It creates a problem for the dollar and for the treasury
- 16:14market. He's probably going to be right.
- 16:16And the point here or what he's saying when he says that is
- 16:21ultimately, yes, there is this, you know, we've talked about
- 16:25this, you know, $13 trillion dollar denominated liability out
- 16:30there, right, in terms of foreign borrowed dollar debt
- 16:33that when the dollar goes up, it squeezes people into that.
- 16:37It forces them to sell Treasuries, it forces them to
- 16:39sell US equities to raise the dollars to get that.
- 16:43Well, once the price of gold gets high enough, it starts to
- 16:46fully collateralize their dollar liability on the other side.
- 16:51And suddenly it starts to provide the liquidity, it starts
- 16:55to be the sink. And that is how you circumvent
- 17:00the the gold is how you get out of the dollar system.
- 17:04And that's why another or friend of another said all those years
- 17:07ago, when you see them go up together, that means the dollar
- 17:10is coming to the it's it's end of life.
- 17:12That's dollar. This present form of this dollar
- 17:15system is coming to the end of life.
- 17:16Now does it mean the dollar is going to die?
- 17:17No, they'll be using dollars and you know, you're and my
- 17:21grandkids and great grandkids will still be using dollars.
- 17:23They're just going to buy us a lot less.
- 17:25And certainly in gold terms, de facto we can see gold with
- 17:32today's price move has, has overtaken treasuries in global
- 17:36central bank reserves, right. So there are now, there's now
- 17:38more gold in global central bank reserves than there are U.S.
- 17:41Treasuries. How do you sit there and argue
- 17:44and say it's not overtaking the dollar in the system you gotta
- 17:47get? To me that's.
- 17:48Crazy. Now, will people still use
- 17:49dollars? Of course.
- 17:50Why? That's just Gresham's law,
- 17:52right? I hear people say, well, it's
- 17:53still dominant. 90% of currency usage.
- 17:57That's dollar dominance. Great.
- 18:00So you're spending. Yeah.
- 18:01You're telling me it's the bad currency, right.
- 18:04I will. I'll spend dollars late all day
- 18:06long because there's a terrible store of value.
- 18:08But if the whole change of structure we've been talking
- 18:12about for years and if you watch all my posts, all my pockets,
- 18:16everything ever said have never said end of dollar reserve
- 18:18status since end of the post 71 structure of dollar reserve
- 18:23status, which is dollar as primary reserve currency,
- 18:28Treasury bond as primary reserve asset.
- 18:32It happened. It's happened.
- 18:34The dollar is still primary reserve currency.
- 18:38The gold is now primary reserve asset as of probably this
- 18:41morning with the $100 move. And I don't think it's ever
- 18:44going back unless, you know, she suddenly decides to be, you
- 18:50know, Yeltsin and, you know, sell off his country for pennies
- 18:54on the dollar to American, you know, corporate and, and
- 18:56Washington interests. And Putin decides to do the same
- 18:59thing because we can't go to war to stop him.
- 19:03The rare earth thing ensures. It pals.
- 19:04Paws isn't policy, it is surrender.
- 19:07QT ends because the bank plumbing is dry and every new
- 19:10dollar printed from here is just tackling fuel for Bitcoin.
- 19:14Tackling fuel now before we bring it home today, look at our
