In Part 2 of Tom Bilyeu's epic conversation with Kevin O'Leary, the discussion escalates from global power struggles to the very heart of America's economic future. As the superpowers of the US and China face off, Tom and Kevin analyze the survival of the American dream—are freedom and entrepreneurship enough to keep America competitive in an era of inequality, populism, and ballooning debt? This half of the episode pulls back the curtain on political self-correction in democracy, the risk of America's debt cycle approaching collapse, the search for genuine economic growth, and the radical innovation that could save the day. If you want razor-sharp commentary on AI, the stability of the US dollar, and whether America can avoid a fiscal disaster, don't miss this eye-opening dialogue.

Money, debt, and finance shape the lives of everyone globally, including through the policies and actions of national central banks – yet even those who are well-versed in these subjects often miss the full scope of these intricate relationships. For the average person, headlines about mounting government debt and surging interest rates often feel like a confusing and concerning trend. What can we learn from historical cycles, global energy dynamics, and the differing fiscal strategies of nations about the trajectory of the world economy? In today's episode, Nate is joined once more by Lyn Alden for a deeper exploration of the intricate relationships between fiscal dominance, rising levels of debt, and the role of energy in shaping our current financial realities. Lyn explains how a historical analysis shines light on the gaps in economic theories like Keynesianism and Modern Monetary Theory, and what the implications are for our present situation. Using this perspective, they discuss recent trends in Bitcoin, Stablecoins, and Artificial Intelligence – and what further developments in these areas might mean for average people in developed and developing countries alike.  How can a deeper understanding of these dynamics prepare us for the economic challenges ahead? What lessons can we draw from past instances when public debt reached unsustainable levels? And as governments attempt to navigate familiar problems with new approaches, how might individuals prepare for the acceleration of this unstoppable train as we head into an increasingly uncertain future? (Conversation recorded on May 28th, 2025)   About Lyn Alden: Lyn Alden is an independent analyst and founder of Lyn Alden Investment Strategy with a background in engineering management.

Wondering what the big deal is about the GENIUS Act and stablecoins? Chad P. Wilson offers a quick primer on what they are and how you might use them in the future in this week's episode of Money Matters.  This episode was recorded on July 29, 2025 by President Chad P. Wilson of Foundation Bank. 

Jacob Shapiro sits down with Luke Gromen for a wide-ranging discussion about AI's disruption, the U.S. fiscal outlook, and global power dynamics. Jacob noted that AI is rapidly commoditizing data and could upend white-collar industries, but he and Luke agreed that intuition and discerning quality data points remain critical. They dug into Europe's strategic weaknesses, the U.S.-China rivalry, and vulnerabilities in supply chains like rare earths. On the U.S. fiscal front, Luke argued that the government must financially repress bondholders, with stablecoins potentially becoming a tool for yield curve control. They closed with a look at Bitcoin's growing role as a “neutral reserve asset.”--Timestamps:(00:00) - Introduction (01:17) - The Impact of AI on Research and Content Creation(05:18) - Economic Predictions and Intuitive Analysis(11:38) - Concerns About AI and Future Job Markets(16:45) - Geopolitical Surprises and Strategic Incompetence(23:14) - US-China Relations and Rare Earth Vulnerabilities(30:14) - Fiscal and Monetary Health of the United States(27:00) - US-China Relations Again(31:09) - Restructuring Debt and Inflation Concerns(32:17) - Housing Market and Inflation Dynamics(33:45) - Economic Policies and Market Reactions(38:57) - Stable Coins and US Fiscal Strategy(50:30) - Bitcoin as a Reserve Asset(01:00:18) - Investment Advice and Final Thoughts--Jacob Shapiro Site: jacobshapiro.comJacob Shapiro LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jacob-l-s-a9337416Jacob Twitter: x.com/JacobShapJacob Shapiro Substack: jashap.substack.com/subscribe --The Jacob Shapiro Show is produced and edited by Audiographies LLC.

In Episode 430 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with Vance Spencer and Michael Anderson. Mike and Vance are the founders of Framework Ventures, one of the largest venture capital firms in crypto and one of the earliest and biggest investors in Decentralized Finance (DeFi). Kofinas, Spencer, and Anderson spend the first hour surveying the current state of crypto—how the space has evolved since Michael and Vance were last on the podcast and how institutional participation in Bitcoin and Ethereum has expanded through ETFs and corporate treasury strategies. They also unpack the latest legislative developments, including the Genius and Clarity Acts, and their implications for stablecoin adoption and the broader digital asset ecosystem. In the second hour they zoom out to examine the far-reaching implications of dollar-backed stablecoin adoption outside the United States. The three of them explore how diverging regulatory frameworks across jurisdictions are shaping the future of decentralized finance and consider the rise of digital asset treasury companies as a powerful new force in the crypto economy. They also examine the practical intersections between blockchain technologies and artificial intelligence, including how AI might leverage decentralized finance applications and cryptocurrencies for the purposes of capital formation and data monetization.

Welcome to The Chopping Block – where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. In this episode, the crew is joined by special guest Rebecca Rettig, Chief Legal Officer at Jito Labs, to unpack the biggest legislative week in crypto history. The Clarity Act, Genius Act, and Anti-CBDC Act all pass Congress, ushering in what some are calling a regulatory renaissance — or at least, the first real rules of the road. Bitcoin breaks $120K, memecoins rip, and Crypto Week sends shockwaves through Washington. But is the Clarity Act really the win the industry's been waiting for?

01:02:10 – AI Deletes Entire Company DatabaseAn autonomous AI assistant wiped out over 2,400 business records without authorization. It fabricated emails, faked test results, and later admitted its actions—exposing the uncontrollable threat of giving AI real-world authority. 01:13:27 – AI Powers Market Manipulation & PanicAI trading bots now dominate markets by reacting instantly to headlines and sentiment, triggering flash crashes based on rumors or coordinated activity. A single political tweet can now unleash massive volatility in seconds. 01:20:08 – Trump's AI.gov Action Plan Fuels TechnocracyTrump's sweeping national AI initiative centralizes federal control, strips away bureaucratic checks, automates jobs, and empowers unelected "experts." Despite populist rhetoric, the policy paves the way for a technocratic takeover. 01:24:43 – AI Replacing Workers Despite FlawsThe so-called workforce “retraining” effort masks an agenda to replace human labor with AI—regardless of its error rate. Profitability now trumps accuracy, with corporations favoring efficiency over truth. 01:34:14 – AI Datacenters Drive Electric Bills to Crisis LevelsSoaring power demands from AI datacenters are destabilizing energy grids. Utilities in the eastern U.S. are now paying record prices, forcing everyday Americans to choose between air conditioning and skyrocketing bills—while Big Tech devours the grid. 01:57:06 – Germany's AI Cockroach Drone ArmyGermany reveals a chilling new military project: AI-controlled cyber-insects designed for surveillance, swarm tactics, and possible micro-weapons. A disturbing sign of technocratic militarism returning to Europe. 02:13:20 – The Hidden Reality of “You Will Own Nothing”A listener's question sparks a deeper look at how WEF-style control has already crept in—from bug-based food dyes like Red 40 to property taxes that make ownership an illusion. The “Great Reset” is happening—without the branding. 02:39:58 – Controlled Demolition of the Dollar SystemThe collapse of fiat isn't accidental—it's engineered. Central banks are replacing cash with programmable digital currency, using debt and inflation as tools to force through total financial control. 03:02:24 – CBDCs vs Stablecoins: Trojan Horse or Competing Control Models?A listener question opens discussion on the threat of both CBDCs and stablecoins. Whether centralized or private, both aim to eliminate cash and impose surveillance through programmable money systems. 03:33:35 – Gender Identity Declared ‘Immutable' in LawNew legal interpretations now treat “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” as fixed traits. Critics warn this redefinition opens the door to compelled speech laws and legally enforced ideological compliance. 03:45:12 – Louisiana Defends Christian Rights in Public LibrariesLouisiana's attorney general backs employees fired for refusing to take part in drag queen story hours, invoking religious liberty protections. A rare example of the state pushing back against cultural coercion.

Americans are often told that they benefit from the privilege of the dollar serving as the world's currency. A strong dollar makes imports cheaper, facilitates demand for American companies, and is tied to cheap government borrowing. But what happens when this powerful privilege weakens? What does it even mean for the dollar to be “strong” or “weak” as a medium of exchange and investment? Why should Americans care that the dollar serves as the reserve currency for the world's central banks?In his new book “Our Dollar, Your Problem,” Ken Rogoff, a Harvard professor and former chief economist for the International Monetary Fund, argues that the dollar is past “middle age” and that its global dominance will erode in the coming years. He predicts the dollar will eventually share power with the European Union's euro and Chinese renminbi in a “tripolar” world.Rogoff joins Bethany and Luigi to discuss why the dollar's shifting dominance matters so much to the United States and what implications this has for the rest of the world's payment network. He describes how the dollar has come under pressure from multiple directions, both now and in the past. Outside the U.S., these include past and current international challengers, such as the Soviet ruble, the Japanese yen, and the European euro. From within, the current instigators are rising federal debt, increased use of economic sanctions, and growing political dysfunction. The three also discuss if President Donald Trump's boisterous support for cryptocurrency further undermines the U.S. dollar. Ultimately, they tease out how the dollar has underpinned American economic prowess for the last half century and what the consequences will be for the American economy – and the world at large – if the dollar is dethroned.Read a review of Rogoff's book by Capitalisn't team member Matt Lucky in ProMarket: https://www.promarket.org/2025/07/24/what-happens-after-the-dollars-hegemony-ends/

They told you the CBDC threat was blocked. But behind the headlines and hype, a sneak attack is underway—and it's more dangerous than Fedcoin ever was. In this episode, I expose how bills like the GENIUS Act and the so-called Anti-CBDC Act are opening a massive backdoor to surveillance finance. Here's how they're doing it: Turning stablecoin issuers into state spies under AML laws Forcing public reporting of your crypto holdings Giving the government veto power over stablecoin creators Handing full control to the SEC and Fed—no CBDC required This is not freedom. It's control, rebranded. I'll break it all down—and then I'll give you real solutions: ✔ How to exit the system with junk silver, Monero, Zano, and other privacy tools ✔ Why alternative currencies still matter ✔ And how to reclaim sovereignty before the trap fully closes LEARN MORE ABOUT THE CBDC THREAT AND HOW TO OPT OUT IN THE FREE WEBINAR I RECENTLY DID WITH AARON DAY: SIGN UP FOR FREE HERE:  https://livefree.academy/sneakattack   ***   Support Our Sponsors and Partners: Wise Wolf is freedom-aligned, Bitcoin-friendly, and serious about sovereignty.

Last week, the U.S. passed its first major piece of crypto legislation. Stablecoins now have a legal home, and that could open the floodgates for adoption, disruption, and regulation. But is this just the beginning? In this episode of Bits + Bips, Ram Ahluwalia, Noelle Acheson, Steve Ehrlich, and guest Cosmo Jiang of Pantera dive into what the stablecoin law actually means, who it helps, who it threatens, and why Wall Street and crypto startups alike are positioning fast. They also cover Ethereum's rally, what's fueling it, and whether the boom in digital asset treasury companies is sustainable. Plus, they unpack Trump's latest threats against the Fed and what it means for markets, inflation, and interest rates.

What happens when a $2 trillion cryptocurrency market suddenly requires monthly audits? Blake and David break down the Genius Act, the new federal stablecoin legislation that just created a massive opportunity for auditors—but also potentially recreated the chaotic "wildcat banking" era of the 1800s. You'll learn why every stablecoin issuer now needs monthly attestation reports and annual audits, creating hundreds of new recurring revenue streams for accounting firms willing to take on the risk. Plus, they explore whether there are enough auditors to actually make this system work, and what happens if quantum computing breaks cryptocurrency security. The episode also covers PCAOB leadership changes under the new administration, live-tests AI agents trying to enter invoices (spoiler: it's messier than the hype suggests), and updates on the 23 states now offering alternative CPA pathways.SponsorsMissive - http://accountingpodcast.promo/missiveRelay - http://accountingpodcast.promo/relayCloud Accountant Staffing - http://accountingpodcast.promo/casChapters(01:17) - AI in Accounting: Browser Integration (02:35) - Major News: The Genius Act and Its Implications (03:38) - Sponsor Shoutouts and Livestream Interaction (05:06) - Audit News: Erica Williams and PCAOB Changes (08:27) - Federal Audit Failures and OMB's Strategic Reset (09:48) - AICPA's New Fraud Detection Standards (12:52) - Sponsor Highlight: Missive (15:38) - Fraud Case Study: Christine Hunsicker's $300M Scam (20:08) - Deep Dive: The Genius Act and Stablecoins (41:21) - The Risk of Stablecoins and Financial Contagion (42:07) - Quantum Computing Threat to Bitcoin (42:38) - The Challenge of Upgrading Cryptocurrency Systems (43:22) - Summary and Predictions for Accounting Firms (43:38) - Fraud in the Traditional Banking System (44:08) - Relay: The Small Business Banking Solution (45:43) - Pig Butchering: A Growing Fraud Problem (48:05) - The Case for a Federal Stablecoin (50:26) - Alternative Pathways for CPA Licensure (52:02) - Decline in CPA Licenses and Modernizing Education (54:59) - Cloud Accountant Staffing: Solving the Labor Shortage (56:01) - Agentic AI: The Future of Automation (59:13) - Challenges and Potential of AI in Accounting (01:02:31) - The Role of AI in Data Entry and Research (01:17:53) - Conclusion and Final Thoughts  Show NotesTrump signs landmark GENIUS Act, hailing "exciting new frontier" for crypto - CBS News https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-signs-genius-act-crypto-bill/Fact Sheet: President Donald J.

Hunter Biden Blames Debate Disaster on Ambien and Defends Open Borders In a profanity-laced interview, Hunter Biden blamed Ambien for his father's poor debate performance and said illegal immigrants are essential to America's economy. He claimed they are more law-abiding than white men and even threatened to invade El Salvador over Trump's deportation policies. Bryan critiques the comments as revealing and dangerous. Trump Hosts AI Summit to Boost U.S. Tech and Halt Woke Algorithms President Trump meets with tech leaders to address five priorities: expanding energy for AI data centers, increasing chip manufacturing, building more server infrastructure, securing mineral supplies, and confronting political bias in artificial intelligence. Trump pledges to deny federal contracts to AI firms with ideological slants. New Law Regulates Stablecoins, Aims to Reinvent Payments Trump signs the GENIUS Act, establishing the US's first legal framework for stablecoins. The law encourages privacy, blocks the Fed from launching its own digital currency, and opens the door for companies like Walmart and Amazon to use stablecoins to bypass costly credit card fees. Israel Expands Gaza Operations While Hamas Crumbles Israeli forces enter central Gaza in search of live hostages. Netanyahu apologizes to Pope Leo after a mortar hit a Catholic church. Meanwhile, Hamas is hijacking humanitarian aid and killing drivers who resist. Bryan warns of worsening conditions as Hamas fights for survival. Syria's Ceasefire Holds, Trump Oil Plan Faces Uncertainty After Bedouin extremists massacre over 1,000 Druze civilians, Syria's ceasefire appears to be stabilizing. But Israel defies Trump's orders by continuing airstrikes, complicating efforts to implement a U.S.-backed energy recovery plan involving major American firms. U.S. Warns Against Travel to China After Detentions Chinese authorities detain a Wells Fargo employee and a U.S. government official without warning, reviving fears about China's use of “exit bans.” Bryan urges Americans to avoid travel to China due to growing risks. China's Mega-Dam in Tibet Raises Global Alarm President Xi breaks ground on a $167 billion hydropower project that rivals the entire U.S. nuclear output. India fears Beijing could weaponize water flows, further straining already tense relations. Bryan flags the project as one to watch for future geopolitical fallout.

CONVERSATION RECORDED JULY 17, 2025. House Republicans just celebrated their “Crypto Week” with the passage of an Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act and the passage of a stablecoin-promoting GENIUS Act. And, whether you know it or not, this new stablecoin regulatory regime is going to transform your life and the entire global monetary order.
