Our exclusive interview on The Bitcoin Mogul with Max Keiser, renowned American broadcaster, filmmaker, journalist, venture capitalist, successful Wall Street veteran and presenter of the Keiser Report and the Orange Pill Podcast, examines the impact of Central bank policy, debt monetisation, asset bubbles, the wider adoption of cryptocurrencies, as well as central bank digital currencies throughout the world economy in the wake of a global monetary crisis precipitated by inflation. Executive Global sit down to discuss fintech and global macroeconomic risk with one of Wall Street’s most brilliant minds.

The Bitcoin Mogul

EG: Gold, silver and Bitcoin today, stocks bonds and real estate tomorrow’. With your expert insight into current asset class valuations, could this statement reflect a wise approach to asset allocation in 2020?
 

Max Keiser: Paul Tudor Jones, Stan Druckenmiler, and other incredibly successful fund managers are piling into Bitcoin now that it has proven itself as superior to Gold, but with 30-50x the price appreciation potential. PTJ calls it the ‘fastest horse in the race.’

In terms of asset allocation for 2020 and beyond, even if you allocate 5% into Bitcoin, that allocation will eclipse everything in your portfolio within 3 -5 years. In other words, if you put $1 million (5% of your portfolio) into bitcoin now, within 3-5 years it’ll be worth $30-$50M. 

​

EG: With the U.S. repo market set ablaze at the end of 2019, followed by the impeccably timed pandemic in the aftermath, we witnessed the most extraordinary printing of currency in history. What are the most effective ways for investors to protect themselves now?
 

MK: I think it’s very generous, rhetorically speaking, to refer to what central banks are doing as money printing. That sounds like there’s some kind of policy or logic behind it. Truth is, the dam has broken, and the world is being flooded with toxic, worthless fiat on a biblical scale, and like in the Bible, Bitcoin is the ark that will save a few people from drowning.

 ​
EG: With the Banking For All act legislated through Congressional Bill S.3571 mandating ‘digital dollars’ and ‘digital dollar wallets’, slated for implementation no later than January 1st 2021, what impact may the digitisation of the USD have on the American economy? Moreover, how damning an indictment and tacit admission of foolhardy debt monetisation and central bank policy, is this legislation? 

MK: Central banks will start sending their digital Fed Coins directly to citizens, bypassing Wall St. and the commercial banking sector. They are getting ready to throw the bankers under the bus. Deposits will be replaced with these new Fed Coins and these new coins will have an expiration date. Either you spend them or they expire worthless. Additionally, these Fed Coins will take censorship and surveillance to China-like extremes. It’s a model I call the Casino-Gulag. People will be stuck in their cubicles clicking on ads in exchange for Fed Coins that might afford them a few protein pills to keep from starving another day.
 

If you complain, you get cut off from the grid and left to die in the gutter. America already does this with its draconian health care system that creates hundreds of thousands of health care bankruptcies a year to feed the kleptocrats and opioid, Oxycontin pushers who run the system. American politicians think of themselves as disciples of Dr Kevorkian and their primary job is to euthanise us in as dignified, and profitable way possible.
 

EG: If the ripple effect on U.S. Treasuries and total specie in circulation of the Fed’s balance sheet growth as it heads to $10 trillion in assets is ultimately negative, wouldn’t an asset backed physical dollar be critical to maintaining normalcy
and purchasing power, instead of just digitising it all?
 

MK: The only non corrupted, non correlated asset left is Bitcoin and Bitcoin was born to take down nation states and central banks (this exact message was hard-coded into the Bitcoin protocol that was released on Jan. 3, 2009 in response to the 2008 financial crisis) Expect some fireworks because governments can’t coerce, steal, or confiscate your unconfiscatable Bitcoin. It’ll be tense for sure, but we’re witnessing the death of nation states thanks to perfect money: Bitcoin.
