It’s the Creature from Jekyll Island, a beast so terrifying and horrible that it affects you, me and the American economy every day. As named by author and speaker, G. Edward Griffin, the Federal Reserve Bank is the monster that was born off the coast of Georgia and today remains a mystery to most Americans. We are pleased today to bring a legendary interview with G. Edward Griffin where we discuss the origins of The Fed, how the money supply works and how cryptocurrency can play an essential role in bringing about economic freedom for all.

Best of The Bad Crypto Podcast: Shredding Fiat Currency with Max Keiser

We're revisiting our July 2020 interview with Max Keiser, a Bitcoin purist and fiat shredder (literally). Inflation and the Fed money printing continues in 2022, so we thought Keiser's insights into the financial system were highly relevant. This just might be the "orange pill" episode for you or your friends to hop into Bitcoin. At the rate the Federal Reserve is printing money, it won’t surprise anyone when the dollar eventually crumbles. Max Keiser is taking a pro-active stance on making fiat worthless.  Hand him a twenty and see what happens. It’s been a couple years since we first spoke with the co-host of The Keiser Report so we thought it was a good time to catch up and get his current thoughts on life, the Universe and everything. Hold on to your fiat if you don’t want Max to shred it, but where we’re going you won’t need it anyhow. This episode has it all, including original ukulele serenades.

Just know that we will always strive for RADICAL TRANSPARENCY with any show associations. TIME STAMPS 00:00 - Intro 04:50 - Feature Guest: Max Keiser 07:00 - Are you a Bitcoin purist?  07:45 - Most of the ICO projects from 2017 are dead. You were actually saying the Mona Lisa of the 21st Century is Bitcoin and a hash rate war with Iran that could potentially send Bitcoin soaring in value. 10:15 - America will say “we can’t let these other countries become the richest countries in the world” and enter the hash race/war.  11:06 - Couldn’t both be true? The government starts mining Bitcoin, but prevents its citizens from mining?  12:30 - What about the hash rate contribution from China?  14:40 - 16:18 - With all of the craziness in the United States, how close are we from Atlas Shrugging?  16:20 - 18:53 - The Federal Reserve system is flawed. People are starting to wake up. Bitcoin and Crypto seems to clearly be the path forward. How do you succinctly wake someone up to the whole currency system? 20:20 - We first interviewed you for Episode #34. You recently said hitting $50k Bitcoin will cause Peter Schiff, Mark Cuban, and others will go “all in” on Bitcoin. Explain. 24:36 - Explain the Cantillion effect.  27:55 - How do you think Trump figures into all this? 30:27 - Fairness in media broadcasting and publishing.  34:10 - Everything has been commoditized and traded on an exchange.  36:08 - You mentioned earlier that some of the big name projects in crypto are scams. Do you not think there’s room in the ecosystem for other blockchains and coins?  39:22 - What about countries creating their own digital currencies?  41:12 - Earlier I referenced the protests and the unrest. You have said the protests don’t do anything; buying Bitcoin is the real protest. But the protests are impacting change in policy. What is your take?  43:38 - These movements start out with great intentions, but then get consumed by other causes for the globalist agenda. Do you agree?  50:00 - We’re in 2020; what does the next ten years look like? What does 2030 look like?  52:30 - 54:25 COVID-19 and other events make it seem like this was all a soft coup against the United States government.  54:30 - Where in the world do you go when the U.S. collapses?  55:12 - New York City in the 1970s.  57:15 - The 1987 stock market crash.  59:20 - Global authoritarian dystopia…  1:00:48 - The militarization of local police and the rule of martial law.
