Ep. 113: Real-World Crypto Escapades, Concerns, Threats, and Promises

On this episode of Cents and Sensibility, the Inflation Guy is blessed with not one but two outstanding guests, who help him unravel the significance of a recent client's problem: after selling his bitcoin on an exchange, the exchange made it difficult (so far, impossible) to transfer the proceeds back to his bank. As the Inflation Guy notes, "that's not in the marketing literature about crypto." So, he enlisted some experts to help explain what is going on, and what it means.

The Daily Shot had a chart yesterday showing that if you rank countries by ownership of Treasuries, ”stablecoins” is about #12.

Purists balk, but most HODLers don’t care as long as number go up. As a gold bug, this all just reinforces why I never trusted crypto or crypto bros in the first place. It seems like one big hustle, pyramid scheme, bait and switch. As of today, I can still walk into a coin shop and buy up to $9999 in gold bullion with cash and without giving my name or showing ID. I’m not advocating tax evasion or money laundering, I’m advocating privacy. In a free society govt control must have limits.

Russell Napier has a theory that govts are warming up to stablecoins because they can potentially be regulated into soaking up lots of sovereign debt. The problem for sound money advocates is once crypto becomes another part of the system, it loses all the useful aspects that made it attractive in the first place. Rather than fight this, many crypto pushers have completely changed their narrative. One with Cantor Fitzgerald actually bragged that Tether is good for dollar hegemony.
