Welcome thanks for having me no one gives an introduction like kaiser report thanks max well it well deserved now the front page of the economist magazine says free money in one month the United States printed more money than it had in 200 years how much longer can this money printer go burb before the whole thing collapses well thats the debate this going to be had right now so you all of a sudden as i say we talked about missing 2010 she of money is ruined so you might as well have the governments critics as much of it as a lawyer and going to a competing money supply came along right because i mean so now youve got these 3 different forms of competing money coming along youve caught more modern money tree theory whereby the governments just crazy creates all the money youve got the middle system which is what weve had for the last decades which is fractional reserve banking where the banks kr. Privately yes like a hybrid caused by cops and this free market stroke crony capitalist regulated environment which drives everyone into debt and then you go private money the next question is do we have deflation or do we have inflation and thats really dependent upon who craves the money of the faustus re so money has been destroyed as will these businesses before and that that consumers default on their debts and so the governments have to try and create new money at a fausta rates and if they do successfully creates another fausta rate the number of the full then you could end up with asset price deflation and Consumer Price inflation which seems to be the trend that were heading towards with all this modern monetary theory that consequence of all that money printing and as you mentioned theyre having to print faster and faster is the creation of the can tell you an error classed those who are benefiting from the 0 percent the free money from the fed those who are closest to the fed versus those furthest away from the fed and many of them are of course out protesting and rioting in the streets across the world at the moment do you see that as a causal and relationship there is it correlated and how do you think this can telling our class might react to the collapse of this fat system yes so when money creation is created by a private bank as debt and government crave less and less money which is the money that they create is cash in coins you get 1. 00 of the consequences of the one of the biggest rich poor divides which is what weve experienced which is youre pushing consumers into that in order to save the economy so they say one ever increasing levels of debt in order to try and get united to beat. Inflation old trying to speculate on real estate which is driving them greater and greater and. Sadats as their mortgage repayment doesnt cover their income. Each and every month you know months a month ago and grace are in that and yet those the you know the closest so the cheap money you know the consumers of boring on credit cards and payday loans and paying extortionate Interest Rates as you who is covered but knows that of the richest and wealthiest in control the most awesome. Can actually get access to this very cheap credit and they can use it for asset price in inflation so companies will use it to store prices and the the the you know you end up with this rich poor divide where the moneys being used to prop up the riches assets and the consumers and the other class are deeper and deeper into that and so you just end up with this great says regis to be shown of wealth so weve had to see ever since occupy wall street theres been a lot of activism protests on the straight kind of focused on banks and banks became a subject of a lot of protests do you think the lever see a time when all those protests around the world we call the global insurrection against banker occupation but do you think theyre rallying cry from the street from some point will be to stop printing right i mean this is the opposite of what we have today because people particularly on the left side of the political equation are demanding more printing more subsidies sharing quote sharing the wealth but thats the problem is theyre printing too much do you think theyll ever the penny will ever drop that theyll ever figure out that the problem is please stop printing no i dont think so because the people that are protesting in the streets right now are talking about the inequality and problem actually focusing you know the the inequality is the simpson but the problem is systemic and release the those people rioting in the streets to come to the realisation. The actually too much Government Printing when everyones austin for more businesses are asking for more consumers or austin more we need to somehow pay our mortgage we need now you pay our rent you shut down all businesses we caught on to anything so its quite right that they should be all skin for more when the governments telling them that they call a. Living but that they dont necessarily realize is that back can be the cause of the problem and the destruction of the system now if necessary deep in debt so i guess that they really can benefit from that debts that they have to repay in cheaper in the future or even the debt do you believe so i think that now be crying for more and more money printing the destruction of the system really reaches the point where the debt is so great that the rich need to be concerned. And thats really what i think that were going to see nats and i think were actually going to see protesting in the streets again Central Banks are about to let them go boss the government to give them the bailouts they wont necessarily be able to bail in and send the bankers i think are going to be protesting in the streets when the central Bank Actually brings all this money and salter in Retail Banking direct to consumer has 3 financial knees is what i think so i see in that sense you know thats kind of a genius point really and it gets in keeping with what were saying here at member going back to occupy wall street the bankers upstairs in the on the Office Towers on wall street were throwing money out the went out you know thinking there again from whats happening with all this to tear money printing that youve described and then as you point out now read a point where the Central Banks if they go direct to the to the people using Financial Technology caught crypto currency is exactly a token from the central bank theyre going to put these banks out of business now h. S. B. C. Stock to set a new all time low you know and what is big banks like that than 2008 could go belly up. You know we saw lehmann go belly up bear stearns went on their Northern Rock in the u. K. Went under it started the whole stampede of 2008 we could see a just b. C. Or Deutsche Bank go under our huge avalanche and what youre saying is no bail and this time no bailouts were just going to cut you off completely and were going to have backers in a 3 piece suits doing on the street joining the global insurrection against central Bank Occupation i think that could very well happen lets talk about the u. S. Dollar for a 2nd you know it is the it is the does World Reserve currency and theres a lot going on here a lot of question marks surrounding this your thoughts you know well i think what we see what were going to see next isnt 944 style Bretton Woods agreement monetary renegotiation and so i think that obviously the u. S. Will get a seat at the table as they did in the previous monetary negotiations and theyre going to obviously try and you know keep the strength of the dollar until the dollar is not worth anything then it is still the strongest currency out in terms of money id rather have dollars and then its not also the moment so you know the facts that 70 percent of all. Over you know debts and transactions are all u. S. Dollars and 50 percent of transactions actually happen in u. S. Dollars means that everyone says youve got an incentive to keep it alive theyre exploiting a lot of their inflation through the peoples bank of china to china who obviously have monetary controls. Lending a lot of money to the u. S. And they have to swap in all those u. S. Dollars that they receive the chinese yuan leading that they have to print a lot of money and theyre trying to figure out where theyre putting it but really i think the seat at the table of all these large super currencies and countries is going to be how much gold they have and so thats essentially. Why you know the countries with the largest gold to g. D. P. Ratios are the ones that going to have a seat at the table as germany for europe thats russia thats china who we dont fully know how much a goal but we know theyve been accumulates more than a saying and us as well this race to the bottom as you point out a world of fractional banking world apprentice money to try to export your way g. D. P. Growth has created this perverse incentive system where countries are trying to out print each other and goal is not having a goal is not fooled goaltending new all time highs in every major current currency including now the u. S. Dollar you know against this backdrop we saw the insanity of negative Interest Rates and that up until recently was considered a financial and possibility thats never appear in any financial textbook in history and we also saw negative Energy Prices as well but putting that aside for a 2nd and negative Interest Rates youve been in the business now many many years and how does that fit into your model when negative Interest Rates are just a way of discouraging savings for the p. F. You know for their use the dont have access to the q. E. Money you know those that have access to the q. E. Money can can be on the right side of negative Interest Rates and those that dont have access essentially simply saying save any of your money we want you to spend it we want you to be broken we want you to boree we need more money in the system we need you to borrow more money and so please dont have a pension please dont have a retirement and please dont save were going to penalize all of that and the smart strategy for anyone in this economy is take on as much stats and hope for a debt you believe because thats where everythings headed so you know negative Interest Rates are just. A signal to the wode cleese and say we dont want you to good point all right well were going to continue this discussion after the break simon dixon back to the future the bank the platform and the book heading. Second decade and a must read dont go away more with simon after the break. Hooper joe you know they have so being you. Just cant you know. So. These are the stories of men who cant imagine life without fashion without a sense of style without things that might be seen as weakness in this masculine world but they still demonstrate incredible strength of spirit to live as they choose. For. The world is driven by a dream shaped by one person of those but. No dairy thinks. We dare to ask. Welcome back to reports Summer Solutions are back to stacey right on cue the storm clouds of the dead a bit of a for a boating as we talk to simon dixon about the and media future bank Central Banks and the currents a bit coy and what people can expect now simon getting back to our discussion one of the head a couple points there that. Get your thoughts on Paul Tudor Jones very Famous Hedge Fund manager ive been following him for decades who put 100000000 dollars into bit coin futures contracts he says bitcoin is the fastest horse in the race this is obviously now institutional money pouring into because maybe just for the audience explain because i hear a lot of people saying well those are big point futures contracts they dont count but simon what are your thoughts i think we are headed in the same direction as gold where there are going to be paper versions of because. You have to remember and were going to see jury in this Great Depression a 2020 there is a difference between gold and paper gold were already starting to see the absolute scarcity the reason were reaching a new time highs is because people want their physical gold people want their gold close to them and the smart people are getting their gold close to them and so all these paper contracts where theres not enough gold to actually act all of these aper contracts creates a scarcity in the underlying assets i think were going through a similar situation in. The big trends right now is the fire and you know the sort of on chain yielding products and Financial Products but really centralized Financial Companies or the building on top of the solutions theyre building paper contracts theyre building you know these different types of contracts but they eventually lead to a scarcity of the underlying assets because if you dont own the private key then it is not your big. Coyness the old mantra not your keys not your coins and remember we have all of these derivatives and Financial Institutions and now weve got banks custody in coin you know they can end up owning them just like fear money they can and are spending them just lifea of money and they can end up creating paper and represent asians all of them but they are not the underlying and fortunately theres a big chain where you can actually see unlike gold how much because there is how many more there are to be created and the exact Monetary Policy which creates the scarcity hardass form of money but the world has ever seen that can be deduced these bands really dont confuse that futures contract when it comes to investors and they tend to use these paper versions because they dont want to actually store the underlying because theyre just trying to get exposure and i think thats just going to drive a lot more people into the paper version which eventually leads to a scramble for the underlying assets once those once you actually need it which is where were headed at the moment of course the United States j. P. Morgan bank is being prosecuted under rico for their manipulation using future is and paper gold to manipulate the gold and silver market so that would be interesting in light of what you said in the 1st half in terms of these bankers i just really want to see jamie diamond like storming Grand Central right next to j. P. Morgans headquarters and just like start. Start some sort of riot for for the bankers and you know in case for the audience just so you know we are in North Carolina which is Hurricane Alley so you could hear a real live hurricane coming through right now as we speak i know simon this is probably your 1st hurricane you may have experienced ever. It is well lets talk further about these these futures contracts and the whole derivatives space because other than this notion of an e. M. P. Or the whole internet going down one thing we always hear from naysayers is that bankers are going to take over this and theyre going to manipulate it like gold and silver and that this is that thus a reason why one should not own bitcoin do you agree with that how do you respond to that argument and the way i would respond to that market now argument rather is the same for every Single Market so i used to be a market maker on the London Stock Exchange and my full time job was to manipulate the price of stocks and shares up and down so if somebody was putting out a tearful on the news or in a magazine back then it was investors chronicle words and stuff like that then we used to push prices up push him down try and create some activity and create some liquidity but eventually the long term fundamentals for mel and were starting to see that with gold at the moment as well the reason that gold is more. Is because through all of the manipulation steroid ever all the accusations all you construct the manipulation unfortunately the short term the long term you know the on the mental supply weve already seen big manipulated shorts on many occasions you know c. E. C. These joint normal orders going into the exchanges that make people dump the price short. And people start speculating on who sent and selling them some of the you know earlier this year about 50 really early. Yes isnt big calling was sent to an exchange these are all designed so manipulation so you can get in every Single Market but really as an investor focus on the long term fundamentals unless you want to trade split pay in some of these insider manipulation games lets go back to the sovereign layer here you know the crisis genius protocol of stack of game theory and it seems to go higher and higher up the ladder and now at the sovereign level where the question is what state or a group of states will start getting into buying or acquiring or mining because it is a way to add to their Strategic Reserves and different sovereigns are now trading their own sovereign Digital Currencies people trying to figure out how that fits into the big quaint space that japan is going to introduce the digital yen chinas thinking about a coin except. And so a couple of questions so when japan appears to introduce a digital yen. You know what do you think about a National Crypto currency in the 2nd part of the question is the pushback you hear from people is that well what have countries outlaw because and that there is another want to get into Competitive Bidding to add to their Strategic Reserves and acquire bitcoin thats the flip side of that argument but how do you come down simon on this sovereign digital crypto coin now in the pickle in space and hows that going to play out the things current see is going to be 100 percent digital very soon or is he is in some countries. The interesting thing that people confused is people often think. That you know the Central Bank Digital currency is the same thing as what weve already goltz because the money is already digital and theres a war on cash and cash is virtually disappeared anyway there is i see a major major difference its who creates the central bank Digital Currencies and how theyre crazy so when a country actually creates a Central Bank Digital currency. Into vehicle. Me and theyre going to have to figure out their models i personally think the way theyre going to issue it is as a result of allowing people to access a helical to money as a as a individual universal credit income. And theyre also going to issue it in proportion to banks go embossed so people dont lose. So if you have some money in a bank you can just get some Central Bank Digital currency in the bank and go bust hence the banks writing in the story. So i think the but its not backed by debt as well as another interesting point so it actually is a deal leveraging affair when Central Banks issue these Digital Currencies versus the Digital Currency those created by the private bank with regards to bitcoin gives people an all in a nexus because when Central Banks and governments create the digits Digital Currency is going to be all full effects on your privacy your freedom your ability to spend your money as you choose is going to be intersected with compulsory vaccines is going to be intersected with your ability to get on a plane in the future and the anti Money Laundering regimes and automated Tax Collections are going to be all intertwined and were just going to have more and more into connection with the Central Bank Digital currency so thats where bitcoin really comes in and then people lost well will they ban it we already have seen use cases weve seen the china and exchanges and it pushed the price from 3000. 00 arts of the 20000. 00 through overseas part of that was a speculative bubble correctives and now were starting to stabilize a bit more so i think wed be very naive to think that governments wouldnt try and ban bitcoin when they start to realise and it becomes a political power play and we already saw that you know with the with the gold in the pasta when it came to the monitor renegotiation when to many people were hoarding and they wanted to increase the velocity of money. The band golden just simply made it illegal in america but at the same time there was a 2 tiered markets a market for converting at the central bank and a market other countries so what i think youll start to see is car countries where their currencies are being destroyed right now that are experiencing hyperinflation or debts you know overindebtedness like were seeing in countries like lebanon i think theyre going to have an opportunity to achieve coin and then announce it as one of the reserves on mass and for banks so fortunately the Competitive Forces i think will make it where if one country makes it illegal another country will see that as an opportunity and well start to see this Country Central Bank level where the last central bank then announces theyre going to hold some of their reserves in big going as well as golden dollars and currency actually become the biggest losers and so i think were going to start to see because as a Political Tool by Central Banks because it can be used by anybody lets talk about any be it buddy because we talk about Summer Solutions here and were talking about a renaissance like a moment of rebirth so if youre saying that all these banks the j. P. Morgans Goldman Sachs h. S. B. C. Deutsche bank b. M. P. Pare about that they all go away they disappear they collapse. Is of course your own bank so what happens in a post banking post the out world like how much entrepreneurship a flourishing of like fraud free or certainly reduced fraud and vironment like what happens i dont think were going to see a post fear i think fear will survive and it would just be in a different format since the fear that youre going to see is going to have less freedom less over and see less privacy and lots of really horrible features built into it. And if banks go boss this is not the the banks go away as the banks have a choice of a. Ivor adjusting to the Central Bank Digital currency they dont get a super subsidy they theyre no longer too big to fail because the central bank can just let them fail and theres a way of you know auction awful the debts and replacing money with a Central Bank Digital currency so it actually drives banks to be more honest and if they dont perform that when theyre not too big when then when theyre not too big to fail they have to compete with Financial Technology companies of all be building in this fear. Now all of those these different players that come along and theyre all competing there is you know this exit opportunity which is that you can pay on the form of money which is to just use gas and cant be manipulated so i think that youre still going to see fraud i think youre going to see fraud where companies building on top of bitcoin like we have in the last all of these things dont necessarily go away but they look like a new form and the most important thing is the Competitive Forces users having the choice of where to where to play where to be use your fear money not because you have to but because its convenient for certain use cases but dont put your savings in there and i think thats what were going to see were going to see every single Financial Products rebuilt in a decentralized way and in a more centralized way with 2 forces competing and consumers having more choice finance is going to get more complicated mission and again theyre going to continue but the beauty of this is that youve got more choice and you do have a hard sell more money and you dont need to rely on your government wow simon dixon great stuff that a should add to your bio they. Fear tourist you know if you really do qualify as a futurist you have predicted so many things have come true thanks for being on kaiser report Summer Solutions pleasure thanks for having me but thats going to do it for this edition of 3 part with max as they say i want to thank our guest again simon dixon of bank of the future. Just on twitter its kaiser report its a lifetime. So what weve got to do is identify the threats that we have its crazy confrontation let it be an arms race in this on all fronts very Dramatic Development only personally im going to resist i dont see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. Has changed american lives but pharmaceutical companies have a miraculous solution. Based drugs to people who are chronic pain and believe that their prescription is working for them on the remedy be sensitive to the price at the. Grocery dependency and addiction to opiates to long term use that really isnt scientifically justified and ill study actually suggest that. The long term effects might not just be absence of benefit but actually because we want to. Seem wrong roles just dont hold. Any world belief yet to shape our disdain become educated and engage from an equal betrayal. When so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.
