E275: Macroeconomics with Special Guest Peruvian Bull

 

E275 Introduction

Today’s episode is not really a Bitcoin episode per se. But rather a conversation with a very intelligent young man about what he sees in the macroeconomic environment as it relates to our future.

I have said that we will continue to feature Bitcoiners on this show. Not every episode. Basecamp is not a Bitcoin podcast. But I like what Bitcoiners bring to the table: street smarts, intelligence about monetary properties, intuition, and a healthy dose of optimism and foresight.

In my view, Bitcoiners are one of the only sub-groups bringing light and humor and insight into the narrative war. The fact that they are preaching adoption of the hardest money on the planet is almost the cherry on top, so to speak.

Between tariffs and de-dollarization and trade and narrative wars, it can be difficult to see clearly. We are in the cognitive dissonance phase for many people, certainly the normies are getting this in spades. A sort of WTF is happening vibe is all over the place.

This is where the stone-cold conviction of the Bitcoiners again stands alone. What other sub-group is cutting through the fog the way Bitcoiners are? None that I can see.

Let‘s get to our interview, it’s a good one. And once again, none of this should be taken as financial advice. I am not saying YOU should buy Bitcoin. I am a libertarian through and through. You do you Basecamper. I am simply sharing what I have found valuable. That is all. Enjoy the interview.
