"Unfortunate Smelting Accident" - The VK Bros Episode 136

Are we about to experience a Global Financial Crisis x 10? The financial world is in turmoil this week with two banks (Silvergate and Silicon Valley Bank) going bust. We discuss the reasons behind this and what is coming next. We also discuss the Western Australian State Owned Perth Mint which has been caught “gold doping” (mixing silver into the gold bullion to cut costs) by its largest customer – then trying to cover it up - potentially resulting in $9 Billion worth of gold needing to be recalled and much more financial news!
