Episode notes
Moose Cameo At The Start
- Jason opens the show with a playful moose cameo at his desk.
- The hosts use light banter to set a casual tone for the episode.
Fed Is Political And Its Roles Are Outdated
- The Fed is de facto political because presidents appoint governors who align with their ideology.
- Chamath argues core Fed roles (rate setting, monetary policy) may be better served by markets and Treasury using real-time data oracles.
Use Real-Time Data Oracles For Rates
- Publish economic data (GDP, payrolls) to blockchains to create real-time, verifiable pricing oracles.
- Let markets use those oracles to set rates rather than rely on slow, monthly Fed decisions.
