Michelle Makori, Lead Anchor and Editor-in-Chief at Kitco News, dives into a compelling discussion with Stephan Livera, Host of the Stephan Livera Podcast and Head of Education at Swan Bitcoin. Livera shines a spotlight on the staggering levels of U.S. public debt, suggesting the government may employ tactics to 'engineer a scenario' to inflate its way out of this colossal challenge. He takes a critical look at the fiat money system, likening it to a Ponzi scheme that governments are trying to sustain. Livera draws intriguing connections between the gold and Bitcoin standards, shedding light on their impact on the financial landscape.
