In episode 016, we discuss one of the wildest two weeks in macro and Bitcoin yet — from gold’s historic breakout to PayPal’s $300 trillion stablecoin “misprint.” This broadcast dives into the clash between legacy money, digital rails, and the illusion of “innovation” as fiat experiments spiral and Bitcoin’s role as sound money becomes clearer than ever. We cover:

🥇 Gold’s explosion — Why the fastest $500 move in history signals structural change, not a trade

⚖️ Bitcoin vs. Gold tribalism — Why both assets are fighting the same monetary war despite culture clashes

💥 The PayPal minting fiasco — What a $300 trillion “accident” reveals about stablecoin fragility and control

🔗 Stablecoin delusion — How regulators, corporates, and crypto funds keep rebuilding the same fiat system on-chain

💭 Monetary order shifts — From sovereign gold accumulation to Bitcoin’s long game as “money 10.0”

🧠 Conviction under fire — Why true hodling means surviving psychological cycles, not just volatility

🚀 The decade ahead — Why simplicity and scarcity will outlast every fiat-branded “blockchain innovation”
