Peter Grosskopf — former CEO of Sprott and co-founder of Argo — joins Scarce Assets to unpack why gold has been the runaway winner of 2025 and what that says about debt, inflation, and the end of “risk-free” bonds.Argo // SCP Resource FinanceConnect with Onramp // Onramp Institutional // Jackson Mikalic on XWHAT WE COVER:- How gold became 2025's top-performing major asset while “nothing was really wrong”- Central bank de-dollarization: SWIFT sanctions, exploding US deficits, and reserve rebalancing- Why gold is quietly replacing Treasuries as the global “safe asset”- The debasement trade: protecting purchasing power when CPI underreports reality- Peter's personal allocation: ~50% in gold, silver, Argo balances, and miners- Liquidity, QT's end, and why the Fed's balance sheet likely has to grow again- Inside Argo: 24/7 direct-to-vault gold, outside the financial system, at ETF-beating costs- Tokenized gold (Tether, Pax) and why custody, vaults, and bankruptcy remoteness matterKEY INSIGHTS:- Gold's 2025 move isn't about a single crisis — it's decades of debasement risk finally being priced in- Central banks aren't just “adding diversification”; they're hedging both sanctions and US fiscal decay- For Peter, gold is no longer a hedge against dollars — it's the base unit of savings- Official inflation at 2–3% doesn't match lived experience; the real erosion feels closer to 5–7% with violent spikes- Treasuries are losing their status as the default safe haven; gold is stepping into that role- Bitcoin is still digesting leverage and maturing from a speculative tech trade into a long-horizon macro asset- Direct-to-vault and tokenized gold will sit at the core of the next monetary plumbing stackPETER'S THESIS: “Gold isn't just a crisis hedge anymore.

Portfolio Manager at Animoca Brands and former Chief Investment Officer at Node Capital, Shan Han joins Jeremy Au to trace his path from Hong Kong trading to fintech and Web3, discuss how early crypto grew from ideology, and explain why tokenizing assets like student loans can unlock education across Southeast Asia. They explore how customer urgency validates real problems, how global liquidity reshapes emerging markets, and how regulation and permissioned systems will define the future of crypto. Shan also reflects on leaving hedge funds to build companies that solve urgent needs. 06:00 First startup taught real founder lessons: Shan overbuilt the product and underinvested in speaking to customers, which he now sees as his biggest early mistake. 09:00 ICO wave created opportunity and chaos: Node Capital traded markets and backed early tokens as crypto cycles repeated with massive upside and sharp crashes. 10:00 SME lending proved a painkiller need: Borrowers called him for loans before a product even existed, showing that real demand always leads. 14:00 Tokenized student loans expand access: Global liquidity meets local underwriting so students in the Philippines and Indonesia receive financing they previously could not access. 14:55 Benefits emerge for investors, lenders, and borrowers: On-chain capital finds high-quality yield, local lenders scale faster, and students get more affordable financing. 17:15 Blockchain reshapes student loan markets: Unified liquidity, alternative credit models, and on-chain verification make lending systems more efficient and more inclusive. 22:00 Every major asset will become tokenized: Stablecoins lead the way, followed by T Bills and real-world assets as liquidity and tradability improve. 29:00 Courage means leaving comfort for impact: Shan left a hedge fund he loved to build companies because solving real problems mattered more than staying safe.

Paulo David is CEO of AmFi. He joins host Aaron Stanley to discuss how his platform is revolutionizing access to Brazilian private credit markets through asset tokenization. As a third-time entrepreneur who previously built and sold two major fintechs including Grafeno, Paulo brings deep expertise in Brazil's capital markets infrastructure. The conversation explores how Brazil's position as having the world's second-highest interest rates creates a unique opportunity to export this yield to global investors through blockchain technology. Paulo explains how AmFi is addressing critical market inefficiencies including lack of transparency, limited accessibility, and absence of secondary markets that have historically prevented foreign capital from entering Brazilian private credit. He also discusses the platform's expansion strategy targeting Southeast Asia and the Middle East, and how democratizing access to these high-yield instruments can ultimately reduce borrowing costs and improve credit access for Brazilian businesses.------------------------------------------------------------------Brazil Crypto Report is presented by AveniaIf you're building a wallet, a crypto consumer app, or a global payment platform, Avenia is your bridge to Latin America.

This week, Jason and Matt sit down with Mark Goodwin, the former Editor-in-Chief of *Bitcoin Magazine* and one of the sharpest minds in the crypto space. Mark is the author of "The Bitcoin-Dollar" thesis and a leading voice on the intersection of state power, financial control, and the future of money. We dive deep into one of the most dangerous psyops in modern finance: the stablecoin trap. Mark explains why "compliant," centralized stablecoins like USDC are not the free-market alternative to a CBDC, but are, in fact, *more dangerous*. They are the Trojan horse for the exact same surveillance grid—a CBDC in sheep's clothing, built by corporate partners and designed to be fully permissioned, frozen, and censored at the state's command. Mark breaks down the macro-picture, revealing how stablecoins backed by U.S. Treasuries are the empire's new, high-tech scheme to kick the can down the road. As the national debt hits escape velocity, the state is now "tokenizing its debt," creating a new digital wrapper to prop up the dollar ponzi. We explore the perfect bipartisan consensus that's building this digital prison: the MAGA right rails against CBDCs while embracing "federally approved" stablecoins, while the left demands the very regulations that make them instruments of surveillance. Both roads lead to the technocratic end-goal voiced by BlackRock's Larry Fink: the tokenization of *all* assets. We also explore the dark theory of whether Bitcoin itself was an intelligence agency "limited hangout" designed to herd us into a traceable system. Finally, we end on a powerful white pill. If centralized stablecoins are the trap, the only way out is through *permissionless* technology. We discuss the critical need for true privacy tools—like Monero, Zcash, and Zano's fUSD—that are *technologically incapable* of being co-opted, and how the market is finally waking up to the demand for real financial freedom.

What powers the fastest-growing blockchain oracle—and why is real-time, AI-ready data now mission-critical for DeFi? In this episode of The Index, host Alex Kehaya sits down with Marcin Kaźmierczak, Co-founder of RedStone, the fastest-growing oracle network in web3. Together, they unpack how RedStone is redefining what on-chain data can do—for DeFi protocols, institutional finance, and AI agents alike.When a single bad tick can destroy an entire strategy, “good enough” data just won't cut it. RedStone is building the next-gen oracle layer: low-latency, manipulation-resistant price feeds that move at Solana speed, span multiple chains, and empower everything from loans and perps to tokenized treasuries and real-world assets.We explore RedStone's acquisition of Credora, a DeFi ratings platform that turns protocol complexity into clean, institutional-grade risk signals. Because behind every juicy APR is a deeper truth—governance dynamics, multisig vulnerabilities, oracle exposure. Ratings help users choose risk on purpose, while giving institutions the audit-ready insights they need.And as AI agents begin to analyze markets, make trades, and interact with smart contracts, verifiable data isn't just helpful—it's an AI safety layer. We dive into how RedStone's architecture supports AI-native finance, from model training to real-time validation, all with MEV-aware design baked in.Whether you're building in DeFi, deploying capital, or experimenting with AI, this is a deep dive into the composable, verifiable, high-performance data layer powering the next era of web3.Enjoy the episode?
