In this conversation, Lyn Alden and Pascal Hügli delve into the intricate relationship between central banking, war making, fiat currency, and Bitcoin. They explore how central banks have historically financed sovereign activities, the implications of monetary policy on economic cycles, and the potential future of Bitcoin as a rival to traditional fiat systems. The discussion also touches on the challenges of Bitcoin adoption, the role of government debt, and the evolving landscape of monetary policy, including the rise of CBDCs and MMT. At what point will Bitcoin be big enough to challenge government financing? Pascal and Lyn tackle this very question!
