Rough Consensus with Checkmate Rough Consensus Podcast with Lawrence Lepard (Ep #2)
G’day Folks,
I had the great pleasure of meeting Lawrence Lepard in Nashville, and it was only natural to follow up with a conversation centred on sound money. Without a shadow of a doubt, I would have been a goldbug if Bitcoin did not exist, and I still hold a position, and an affinity for the yellow metal.
In this conversation, I wanted to explore the topics that I think would resonate with my old man (Aussie slang for father). Bitcoin is a completely new thing, and I often find it constructive to explore its nature alongside precious metals which helps keep things in perspective.
We dive into several topics including:
* The financial performance of Bitcoin
* The nature of counterparty risk
* Challenges facing our monetary and financial system
* The role of Gold, Silver and Bitcoin
* Breaking down store of value vs medium of exchange
* Practical tools for individuals to navigate the market
I really hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did, and if so, please consider sharing the episode and giving us a rating on Spotify/Apple Podcasts, as it helps more folks find our work. Be sure to give Lawrence a follow, and stay tuned for his upcoming book!
