"We forgot about free markets a long time ago. We've been in [a] quantitative easing market ever since the 2008 financial crisis," says Simon Dixon, CEO and co-founder of BnkToTheFuture.com. "What's really been exposed is the fragility of the financial system... when you try to reverse any centrally planned, low-interest-rate, central-bank-subsidized stock market," he tells Daniela Cambone. "Banks have been broken based on a product that has become more volatile than bitcoin, which is straight up treasuries," Dixon argues. "There seems to be a theme and U.S. regulators seem to treat these blowups as a fine rather than prevent it in the first place. It's a regulatory failure," he continues. "Money at a bank is money I'm lucky to get back. That's how I've always looked at it and obviously that's not how most people look at it," Dixon says. "Bitcoin is a great mechanism for saving, but it's not very useful for spending. However, throughout this whole system shakedown, bitcoin has just worked," he concludes.

The crypto market is experiencing a "Lehman Brothers" moment, according to Simon Dixon, the chaos caused by greedy short-termers exploiting vulnerabilities in nascent technologies such as DeFi and yield farming. The CEO of BnkToTheFuture says lenders marketed products as low-risk savings accounts to attract retail depositors. What they were really doing was investing customer funds in DeFi, effectively making their products high-risk securities. Dixon joins Real Vision's Ash Bennington to talk about what happened at these troubled exchanges, how the industry can recover, and when it can begin to move forward again. A Celsius shareholder, Dixon is committed to helping retail investors affected by the company's failure. He leads the Celsius Recovery Plan, a community-driven solution that will work outside traditional finance, as was the case with Bitfinex.

In this episode of the Keiser Report, from the airport in San Salvador, Max and Stacy look at the statement from the Biden administration that bitcoin is a matter of national security. In the second half, Max chats to Simon Dixon of BnkToTheFuture.com about his arrival in El Salvador just as hyperbitcoinization hits the country. Simon says he believes the nation will rival Singapore as it gains first-mover advantage by developing a bitcoin securities infrastructure.

In this episode of Keiser Report, Max and Stacy look at Jamie Dimon's claim that ‘bitcoin has no intrinsic value.' Indeed. Bitcoin has pure monetary value and that is a good thing. In the second half, Max continues his conversation with Simon Dixon of BnkToTheFuture.com about the financial world in a post-hyperbitcoinization reality in which El Salvador is issuing bitcoin-backed bonds, and what the next few years might hold.

In this episode of Keiser Report, Max and Stacy look at the concern trolling by the Bank of England who are very ‘concerned' about El Salvador's bitcoin legal tender law. In the second half, Max chats to Simon Dixon of BnkToTheFuture.com about this ‘concern' and what he thinks about El Salvador's volcano bond.

In this episode of the Keiser Report's Summer Solutions 2021 series, Max and Stacy chat to Simon Dixon of BnkToTheFuture.com about the strategies to cope with bitcoin market sell offs requiring a change in psychology first. One can no longer behave in a fiat manner around the hardest money ever invented. They also discuss the strategy of printing yet more trillions of dollars as central banks and governments pave the way for a command-and-control digital currency regime to replace the existing monetary failure.

In this episode of the Keiser Report, Max and Stacy spend a special Boxing Day episode with Simon Dixon of BnkToTheFuture.com discussing the extraordinary money printing of 2020 and the consequences that will ripple through the global economic and monetary systems in 2021. They look at possible New Bretton Woods options and what that means for the ordinary person, as the current debt-fueled, free-money world unravels in 2021, the 50th anniversary of an all US-dollar-world. And how will the unraveling show itself in bitcoin, gold and other alternatives?

Max and Stacy note that global perception in advanced economies has shifted such that China is seen as the world’s number one economic power. At the same time, Goldman Sachs is suggesting clients short the dollar and buy silver as Joe Biden seems likely to win the White House and pursue policies that will continue this shift toward China and away from US wealth-creation. Max chats to Simon Dixon of BnkToTheFuture.com about his thoughts on the recent IMF call for a new Bretton Woods.

In our series on interesting deals in the STO space, today a particular gem because of the unusual asset class and the people involved. Asset class first: this is a security token [1,2,3] giving the investors economic interest in an online game called Infinite Fleet. This security token is not to be confounded with Infinite Fleet's in game currency [4]. In terms of people involved there is obviously Samson Mow who is heading Pixelmatic, the developer of the game, and who also has quite a high profile as CSO of Blockstream, a crypto infrastructure company. The backers include Adam Back, Blockstream's CSO, Max Keiser, of the Keiser Report, and Charlies Lee the founder of LiteCoin who famously sold his holdings just before the market crashed. The main deal platform seems to be BnkToTheFuture [5] who has supported quite a lot of companies raising fund in the crypto space, including Kraken [6,7]. The issuance is a SAFT, but they are planning to use the Liquid Network [10] eventually. Also involved STOKR [9] hence the deal being registerd both in the US and in Luxemburg. For those interested in the legal framework under which the offering takes place, STOKR seems to only have an agent payments license from the French ACPR. 1. https://coinjournal.net/news/infinite-fleet-raises-3-1m-in-private-security-token-offering/ 2. https://www.coindesk.com/charlie-lee-adam-back-private-sto-round-blockchain-game-infinite-fleet 3. https://cointelegraph.com/news/samson-mows-infinite-fleet-game-raises-31m-on-bnktothefuture 4. https://www.infinitefleet.com/gamecurrency 5. https://bnktothefuture.com 6. https://app.bnktothefuture.com/companies 7. https://www.coindesk.com/over-2000-investors-back-kraken-crypto-exchanges-13-million-crowdfunding 8. https://www.coindesk.com/bnktothefuture-ceo-50-percent-of-funding-will-be-through-security-tokens-in-2020 9. https://stokr.io 10. https://stokr.io/legal 11. https://liquid.net 12. https://www.businessinsider.com/litecoin-founder-charlie-lee-on-decision-to-sell-entire-crypto-holding-2018-4

When BnkToTheFuture was originally formed, it was meant to be an online platform for investing in private equity, with the ultimate goal of making venture capital more successful. Today, they provide Bitcoin, blockchain, and other Financial Technology start-ups around the world the opportunity to receive investments in their products. BnkToTheFuture has had several notable clients, including BitPay, MasterCoin, and more, and are most excited in the near future for lightning network and RFK, a new technology that will allow smart contracts to be built on the Bitcoin blockchain. Their ultimate goal is to encourage investments in this space, as it is a self-funding mechanism–increased investment drives technological maturity, which drives further investment. Simon also discusses the critical difference between Bitcoin and cryptocurrency, why Bitcoin is so disruptive to the traditional banking industry, and what he sees as the future of the global regulatory framework in the cryptocurrency and blockchain spaces.

Do you ever wonder why United States residents can’t participate in so many ICOs? What’s the real difference between a security token and a utility token? And what happens if someone who isn’t supposed to buy a token ends up doing it? We visited with John Hensel of Seccurency while at the CryptoHQ house during our recent trip to Davos, and were intrigued by the depth of his knowledge. We also have a discussion with a new ICO that is building a global online investment platform.

We started our conversation with Simon Dixon back in 2006, when Simon was first introduced to the concepts of Bitcoin. After a few years in the world of investment banking and brokerage, he set out to write a book on the future of money and banking. He was introduced to the concepts of Bitcoin through the writings of Jonathan James Harrison and was immediately convinced that this was the future of money and the store of value. Simon's knowledge of finance, economics and all things bitcoin come out in this conversation. We had a fascinating look at the ownership of your own money and, among other things how depositing your money in a bank cedes this ownership and allows banks to legally take ownership of its deposits and then do what they will with it. The implications of this are far reaching with one of the consequences being the boom and bust cycles we see in the global economy.

Ever since the financial system collapsed in 2007, the call for alternatives has grown louder. Bitcoin itself can be seen as such an alternative. Simon Dixon’s search for a way to put capitalism on a sounder financial footing began before Bitcoin with a focus on equity crowdfunding. Since then he has built Bank to the Future into an innovative crowdfunding business that takes an aggressive contrarian stance. He has also launched an investment fund focused on cryptocurrencies together with Max Keiser called Bitcoin Capital. He joined us for a fascinating discussion about the flaws of the banking system, Bitcoin and the search for alternatives. Note: Our sponsor Vaultoro is raising an equity crowdfunding round on Bank to the Future.
