Gold, Bitcoin, and the Evolution of Money

I sat down with Robert Breedlove, host of the “What Is Money?” podcast, to unpack the fundamental truths about money, inflation, and Bitcoin. Robert explains why money isn’t just a medium of exchange, but also a form of time, energy, and information—and why fiat money distorts all three. We dig into the history of gold-backed currencies, how central banks consolidate power, and why Bitcoin presents a revolutionary alternative to the broken system.
