The Generational Wealth with Cryptocurrency podcast is about how you can create long-term wealth by investing in cryptocurrencies. This podcast is for the beginner with no experience in crypto or the person who is looking for a different perspective beyond daytrading.
This week I had the pleasure of interviewing one of the "OGs" of Bitcoin - Jimmy Song. We discussed his new book Fiat Ruins Everything as well as a number of other topics.

This week we look at how the ruling by the FASB organization might affect the growth of Bitcoin holding by corporations. Because of the previous accounting rules, corporations such as MicroStrategy where hurt by holding Bitcoin in a down market. This is no longer the case and I believe this will help with corporate adoption of Bitcoin. Is this helpful for Bitcoin? Let's talk!

We examine the potential risks associated with the supply chain and the personal identity associated with purchasing Bitcoin storage devices. Also, we emphasize the importance of making Bitcoin accessible to those who may not have the financial means to buy a typical hardware wallet, making this episode a must-listen for Bitcoin enthusiasts and newcomers alike.

The fiat world creates many issues for both citizens and nations. Debt and inflation, censorship and financial control, a global reserve currency that creates unfair advantages among others.

We have begun to see nation-state adoption of Bitcoin. El Salvador may have been the first, but they will not be the last to move from a fiat standard to a sound-money Bitcoin standard. This week we will explore how countries might make that leap, when they might make it and even discuss a bit of everyone's (least) favorite subject -- how will taxes work on a Bitcoin standard!

And Russia appears to be saying that a gold backed currency will be introduced for trading. If this proves true, it could impact the use of the US dollar as a reserve currency in a major way.

There is a silent injustice that is being perpetrated on the world. Many people don't even realize that it is happening. There are a few beneficiaries of this system but the vast majority of the world is being kept in financial bondage. This insidious problem is what saps our saving's value and means that by the time someone is ready to pass on their wealth there is nothing substantial after a liftetime of saving for their children.

How do we get to the point where "everything is based on bitcoin"? People talk about Bitcoin hyperbitcoinization all the time on crypto twitter. But what does it take to get there? What happens to get to the point where everything is valued in sats and Bitcoin is the medium of exchange between people, governments and countries. Is it possible that Blackrock leads the Wall Street crowd into serious Bitcoin investments? Maybe retirements funds? Is the BRIC group coming in to open up global trade in BTC? Let's discuss!!

We know (and have seen) that having our bitcoin on centralized exchanges like Coinbase and Kraken is a bad idea. And in some jurisdictions it is becoming difficult to even purchase your bitcoin from these exchanges. So what is the solution? There is a group of exchanges called either "decentralized"or "peer to peer" that will always be available no matter where you live. Even though you might not need them today .. maybe it's best to know about these options for purchasing your bitcoin.

One of this weeks news items is that the bitcoin wallets holding less than one bitcoin ("shrimps") are actually stacking more sats than the entire output of Bitcoin Miners. That is terrific news!!!! It turns out, despite what the press might imply, we don't need corporate funding in order to keep bitcoin adoption moving. The businesses and corporation will come.. nation states will adopt bitcoin and eventually it will be reserve currency of the world. But remember we DO NOT NEED THEM.

The theory of the four year cycle has been around for a while. The data from the last three halving cycles have provided a pretty good amount of evidence to back this theory up.
In this episode we cover what the four year cycle is and how you can use it to help in planning your DCA purchases of Bitcoin - essentially "supercharging" your purchases.
Plus news and notes of course.

What is Secessio Plebis and how does it relate to bitcoin? What can we learn from the Roman Plebeians? The banking crisis and economic breakdown of the worlds major economic powerhouses seems to be coming to a climax. What can YOU DO abut it? Maybe it's time to begin your personal Secessio Plebis.
More bank news this week including major news breaking after the recording of this podcast. This could be the beginning of the Fed's pivot from Quantitative Tightening to Quantitative Easing. With our current cocktail of high interest rates and high inflation this may prove disastrous tipping us firmly into recession if not worse.

In my opinion the United States banking system is showing great weakness. This weeks collapse of two large banks demonstrates this. These banks collapsed for different reasons but both demonstrate the inherent risks of a fractional reserve banking system.What is going on? What does it mean for you? Is this going to affect the economy or you?
Let's dive in..

"It's not that I like the Empire. I hate it, but there is nothing I can do about it right now". When Luke tells Obi-wan Kenobi these words during the early part of the Star Wars movie the sense of hopelessness is almost palpable. But it turns out of course that Luke CAN make a difference. In a very short period of time he is thrown into the war against a tyrannical government controlling the galaxy. He made a difference.
Maybe you feel like Luke did because you have no control. Governments around the world are printing money like it means nothing. Inflation is climbing. There are multiple countries on the edge of hyperinflation events. By virtually every metric the average person is losing the financial battle. But Bitcoin brings hope and the possibility of future based on sound money. A way to combat the Evil Empire while not having to lift a blaster.

The Austrian and Keynesian economist view government management of economic cycles differently. The Keynesian economist have a guiding principle that the government is there to guide and manage the economy intervening during times of growth and recession. Of course the the Austrians are of the view that the government should be hands-off.

This spending vs saving narrative is one of the major differences between Keynesian and Austrian economics. Keynesian logic is that people in a nation shouldn't be "savers". They should be out spending money - driving the economy. It's your duty to spend and not save. Austrians think that savings is an important component of any healthy economy. Of course these concepts are at cross-purposes. Let's dig in!!

The Keynesian economics believe that deflation is bad and "moderate" inflation is good. Austrians believe deflation is a good thing and inflation by money printing is a bad thing. History is proving the Keynesians are probably incorrect. Will the elite listen before it's too late (or do they even care?).

There are two main theories of macro economics - Austrian and Keynesian. Austrian economics developed in the late 1800's Austria while Keynesian economics was developed in the environment of the 1930's Great Depression.
I believe that it's pretty indisputable that the majority of the countries of the world operate under what amounts to Keynesian economics. I believe that these policies are what are bringing us to the brink of a Global Depression.
In today's episode I give an overview of the two economic theories, a bit of history and the major differences between them.

With the abrupt collapse of FTX it is certain to bring more cleansing to the ecosystem. While it can be hard to keep track of who is solvent and who is failing, let's dive in and take look. The next fail whale may be just around the corner. And how is the FTX hacker (possibly) suppressing the price of ETH?

This week's news has Twitter all riled up. And it wasn't just about Elon's taking over. It seems that the FTX Exchange of Sam Bankman-Fried may be a little too cozy with Alameda Research. And Binance will be selling all their FTT tokens.. Is this all related? Will it crash the market? Does it matter?

There was a lot of news this week! It seems we continue the inexorable slide to a worldwide Great Depression. With interest rates spiraling up (and choking off long term capital expenditures) and inflations rates continuing to move higher it's almost inevitable at this point.

The goal of the IMF is "https://www.imf.org/en/About/Factsheets/IMF-at-a-Glance (The International Monetary Fund (IMF) works to achieve sustainable growth and prosperity for all of its 190 member countries. It does so by supporting economic policies that promote financial stability and monetary cooperation, which are essential to increase productivity, job creation, and economic well-being.)"

A recent study has voiced the opinion that reversible transactions on a blockchain are a good idea as a way to combat hacking. Unfortunately, this is a simplistic worldview. The reality is that being able to roll back blockchain activity has unintended side effects that end up harming people not even involved in the hack. Let's discuss!

For years I have held the thesis that there would be some point in time when the game of fiat currencies backed by "faith and trust" in government would fall like a badly built house of cards. With the kickoff the of global pandemic and subsequent governmental reactions (including accelerating national debt levels) I reasoned that the time of reckoning was drawing nearer. With the beginnings of the rise of various inflation rates I started saying on the podcast that basically 2023 should be the worse part of the recession. That still may prove to be true but I am very strongly starting to believe it will be in the next few months (say three to six months) instead of the second half of 2023. This weeks news is packed full of backing for those views. Inflation is beginning to spike sharply in a number of countries. As an example, the Netherlands are reporting 17.1% inflation for September. A number of institutions are experience severe credit issues. Energy production is down. Energy prices in Europe are spiraling upward. The war in the Ukraine is continuing to drag on. Banks and various other companies are beginning to say they don't have liquidity (ie .. cash) to continue. Apparently without a governmental intervention (ie .. injection of cash via creation of more debt) the majority of the pensions in Britain would have been insolvent last week. So let's dive into the news and remember why we stack sats!!!!!!!

It's important when investing in cryptocurrencies to understand some of the basic math behind tokens - often called "tokenomics".

The culmination of years of work is occurring tonight with the "merge". The move from Proof of Work to Proof of Stake by the Ethereum developers will shape Ethereum's future in ways that are probably not even known currently. Join the podcast as I cover the background of the merge, the development that will be occurring after the merge and even some "live" commentary during the actually merge itself.

Bitcoin miners want the cheapest source of electricity to mine bitcoin. Many climate change activist attempt to make an argument that bitcoin is bad because it uses so much energy. How can we resolve this? On today's episode I dive into innovative ways that Bitcoin can be mined that help the system instead of just "generating more load". Ways of creating and consuming electricity that only benefit the environment and potential climate change.

Any blockchain project has three primary issues to balance - security, speed and decentralization. No project can provide perfectly all three components at the "layer one" blockchain. The compromises made are what determine the characteristics of the blockchain. Understanding the challenges and tradeoffs will allow you to make better long term choices in your crypto assets.

What rights do you have to financial privacy? This week's news of the arrest of the creator of the Tornado Cash anonymizing dapp sent shockwaves through the industry. Regardless of what happens with TC this will ultimately affect everyone. The United States has very clear foundational rights about privacy and in my opinion those rights are being shredded with Tornado Cash being the latest example.

There is a lot of FUD about Bitcoin being bad for the environment. What is the truth? Should we be "mining" Bitcoin? Let's take a look at some of the current ways that Bitcoin is being mined and the extremely clever ways that Bitcoin mining operations are using "stranded" energy in the form of natural gas and methane to mine bitcoin.

Time to dust off the history books. France, along with other European nations, has a long history of involvement with Africa. Much of this history is based on exploitation of both the natural resources and the people of Africa. The direct French involvement did not end in many of these countries until 1960. This history, and the subsequent treaties established during independence of the African nations during the 1958 - 1960 time period set the stage for the continued economic exploitation of the African continent.

New York State has a bill that is waiting on the Governor to sign that would ban proof of work mining. This would mean that companies would not be allowed to set up new bitcoining mining operations in the state after the bill is passed. Even with the state Assembly and Senate passing the bill, there is no guarantee it will be signed into law. The governor is now saying that the bill will need to be looked at very closely.

In my opinion, one of the most important events of the year will be taking place with the Ethereum 2.0 "merge". The process that will bring together the beacon chain and the main net will create a true deflationary token. It will also be moving from proof of work to proof stake. There are benefits to this this merge that should greatly increase the value of Ethereum in the future.

May the 22nd is "bitcoin pizza day". It should be a day we celebrate by spending bitcoin to purchase goods and services -- instead many times it's a joke about the poor guy who spent 10,000 bitcoin on a couple of Pappa John's pizza. While bitcoin has become a store of value, it was created as digital currency. And the good news is that it can be both!! And using it for both will only accelerate the adoption of Bitcoin - and ultimately increase the price. So celebrate!

The coordinated attack on the Terra Luna ecosystem will most likely go down in crypto history as a "black swan event". Thirty billion dollars of TVL (total value locked) have been evaporated in an extremely short period of time and it is disrupting the entire market.

In this week's episode I cover a few different things. Times right now are trying. Both the stock market and crypto in general seem to be in an outright free fall. Next week the Fed will most likely be announcing another half a percent interest rate increase. The majority of investors still consider crypto to be a risk-on asset so there is no significant decoupling of btc and other crypto from traditional stocks. Where do you go from here?

Crypto prices got you down? Maybe the economy or the pandemic or personal issues are weighing on your mind. I have some good news for you today!!! No matter WHAT is going on in your life, you can take control of your financial future. The economy stinks. Inflation is eating away at your savings and maybe the shelves at the grocery store are a little bare. While bitcoin and other solid crypto assets can't solve everything, they can help you find a better financial future. So begin the process of removing yourself from the world of debt-based paper money that will only lead to more destruction and decay. If you haven't done so .. it's time to join the revolution.

Our very first interview!!! Today I welcomed our very first guest to the show. I met Gary on the podcastindex.social mastodon instance where I post as @macintosh@podcastindex.social.

Last episode we discussed how to earn interest on your crypto using centralized platform such as https://nexo.io (https://nexo.io). Crypto being crypto, there are decentralized methods to earning interest -- called "yield farming". Cutting out the middleman can provide a much higher return on your assets but there are risks we need to discuss. During today's episode we cover the various ways that defi platforms can provide services that allow you generate that interest. I discuss the four primary ways that interest can be earned on these platforms. And of course we talk about risks of using a decentralized platform.

Tuesday and Wednesday of this week the FOMC (Federal Open Market Committee) meets to "guide" the monetary policy of the United States. I believe this will help determine both the near term economic climate as well as affect crypto assets in both the short and long term. Don't dismiss this as idle political speculation. I stay as far from the politics as possible. The decisions reached by this committee of twelve will have a great deal of influence on your financial life.
