Jeff Park on Why Owning 1 Bitcoin Is Young People's American Dream - Ep. 848


Listen Later

In part 2 of Jeff Park’s interview with Unchained, he describes ways that both everyday investors and the U.S. government can use various crypto assets to come out on top as old models and strategies become outdated. 

He reveals the three personal stories that led him to develop his radical portfolio theory, puts himself in the shoes of Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, and explains why Japan is the linchpin in the transition to this new world order.

In this episode, we explore:

  • Why Jeff believes the future belongs to wholecoiners

  • The social mission behind owning bitcoin

  • How the U.S. could leverage stablecoins to maintain global dominance

  • Why the new American dream might not involve a house at all

    And why, in Jeff’s words, we may already be “living in a Bitcoin-only world.”
