How Bitcoin Saves Us From Authoritarianism, Economic Despair & Toxic Ideologies w/ Robert Breedlove

Ashton is joined by Robert Breedlove, one of the most intelligent and knowledgeable personalities in the entire Bitcoin/crypto space, and host of the “What Is Money?” Podcast. Ashton and Robert had a fascinating conversation on a whole range of economic and social issues and explored how Bitcoin can solve many of the problems manifest in the world today.

Ashton and Robert started the conversation detailing how many of the most deleterious economic trends are the result of the US leaving the gold standard, ushering in the fiat money era. They then discussed why every fiat currency eventually became worthless throughout history and why the US dollar will suffer the same fate.

Ashton and Robert next examined the unexpected second-order effects that became manifest once countries left the gold standard and adopted fiat money; such as the prolonging of wars (including the role fiat played in the devastation caused by WW1 and WW2), an increase in authoritarianism, and degradation of culture and society.

Thereafter, Ashton and Robert analyzed the link between national adoption of a fiat currency and the rise of abhorrent and illiberal ideologies such as wokeism and post-modernism.

Ashton and Robert next discussed the central role of property rights in western civilization and how bitcoin is the best form of property ever created.

Ashton and Robert concluded their chat by evaluating Bitcoin price predictions and the most probable trajectory for Bitcoin over the coming months and years.
