April 15 John Butler: Why Central Banks Are Preparing for a Gold System
In this Future of Gold interview series, John Butler explains why he believes gold is gradually returning as global money and why gold could reach $100,000/oz. He discusses the failures of the current debt-based monetary system, the growing role of BRICS, and why rising geopolitical tensions and de-dollarization could accelerate gold’s remonetization.
He also explores how a future gold-backed system could work in practice, from trade settlement and central bank reserves to tokenized gold and neutral vault jurisdictions. The conversation ends with Butler’s view that gold may need to be revalued far higher in a future monetary reset, especially if trust in fiat currencies continues to erode.

April 08 The War Gold That Funded Secret Operations | Izabella Kaminska & John Butler
In this final Future of Gold roundtable from Cape Town, Alexej Jordanov hosts Izabella Kaminska and John Butler on for a discussion that goes deep into some of the most debated and controversial questions in the gold market. The panel explores what Basel III really means for gold, why so many investors misunderstand its role as collateral, and whether gold is truly being elevated inside the financial system or still treated unfairly next to government bonds. From there, the conversation moves into central bank balance sheets, unrealized gains on official gold reserves, and the political implications of revaluing gold in a world of rising debt and failing collateral.

The session also ventures into the more speculative side of monetary history, covering wartime gold movements, hidden reserves, old sovereign bond claims, Fort Knox rumors, and the idea that gold has long played a role behind the scenes in geopolitics, regime change, and covert finance. The roundtable closes with a broader discussion on paper gold, physical settlement, market manipulation, and why gold continues to matter at the highest levels of finance and state power. It is a wide-ranging conversation on gold, trust, power, and the myths that continue to shape the modern monetary system.

March 31 Alasdair Macleod: The Start Of The Global Fiat Collapse
Alasdair Macleod returns to Macroscopic with a stark warning: the conflict with Iran is not just another geopolitical flashpoint, but a potential catalyst for the endgame of the global fiat currency system. In this conversation, he explains why the real story is not only war or oil, but the chain reaction from energy disruption to higher bond yields, collapsing credit, and a broader monetary crisis.
We discuss why Alasdair believes bond markets are now the most important signal to watch, why Japan may be the hidden trigger for a global debt unwind, and why a move above 5% on the US 10-year Treasury could break equity markets. He also lays out why he sees the recent correction in gold as a paper shakeout rather than a fundamental reversal, and why physical demand from the East continues to reshape the gold market.
The conversation also covers the Strait of Hormuz, inflation risks, the future of the petrodollar, yuan-based trade, private credit fragility, and why Alasdair argues that investors need to think differently about money, credit, and real wealth. His conclusion is blunt: get out of credit and understand the role of gold before the next phase of this macro shift arrives.

March 29 Francis Hunt: This OIL CRISIS Is Engineered INFLATION For A GLOBAL DEBT DEBASEMENT
Francis Hunt on why the global system is entering a debt-fiat breakdown, why private credit may be the next major fault line, and why he believes today’s instability is not random but coordinated.
The discussion covers redemption limits in private credit funds, rising bond yields, the long-term implications for the dollar, why stablecoins cannot absorb the scale of sovereign debt issuance, and why gold remains central in a world of currency debasement and growing systemic stress.
The episode also explores oil, stagflation, and the parallels Hunt sees between today’s environment and the 1970s.

March 26 Brent Johnson: Stablecoins Could Replace the Fed
Brent Johnson joins us in this Future of Gold Series to unpack why stablecoins may become far more than a crypto story. In this conversation, he argues that stablecoins could reinforce U.S. monetary power, reshape global commerce, and even evolve into a geopolitical tool of empire rather than just a new source of Treasury demand and potentially replace the Federal Reserve.
We also discuss the future of the dollar system, whether the Fed could gradually lose relevance, why macro and geopolitics now matter more than ever, and how Brent thinks about gold in a world where the dollar may remain dominant longer than most expect.

March 25 Francis Hunt, Brent Johnson, Michael Every, Whitney Baker: Global Monetary Reset
In this Future of Gold Session from Cape Town, Francis Hunt, Brent Johnson, Whitney Baker, and Michael Every debate the breakdown of the old financial order and the clash between debt, gold, power, and real-world supply chains.
The conversation explores deglobalization, empire decline, the dollar’s future, China’s industrial strength, private credit fragility, stablecoins, and whether the next reset will be driven more by markets or by raw geopolitical force.
They also dig into the practical side: how to think about gold, jurisdiction, diversification, food, optionality, and community in a world where financial assets alone may not be enough.

March 19 De-Dollarization Debate with Brent Johnson, John Butler, Whitney Baker and Izabella Kaminska
In this second session of the Future of Gold series, Brent Johnson, Whitney Baker, Izabella Kaminska and John Butler debate one of the most consequential questions of our time: is the global monetary system on the verge of a historic reset, and what role will gold play in what comes next?
The conversation starts with gold’s re-emergence as a monetary anchor, then escalates into a sharp disagreement over whether gold will be officially remonetized, whether the dollar can remain dominant through crisis, and whether China’s gold strategy signals the beginning of a new system. From there, the panel dives into oil trade settlement, physical versus paper gold, Eastern vs Western pricing power, and the role tokenized gold and stablecoins could play in a new Bretton Woods-style framework.

March 18 Whitney Baker: Private Credit Enters a Deflationary Shock
In this interview of the Future of Gold series, Whitney Baker describes the fragility of the global financial system and why she believes we are moving closer to a major monetary and market reset. The discussion explores the long-term consequences of debt expansion, money printing, and policy distortion, and why today’s system may be far less stable than it appears on the surface.
A major focus is the growing stress in private credit and private debt, where Whitney argues hidden leverage, weak collateral, and redemption pressure are creating serious risks beneath the surface. She explains why this part of the market could become a key trigger for broader financial contagion, with consequences that reach far beyond Wall Street.
The interview also dives into global liquidity, the outlook for the dollar, geopolitical instability, energy shocks, and the role of gold in a world of rising systemic risk. Overall, this is a deep macro conversation about how fragile the current system has become, what could break next, and how investors should think about navigating a more volatile and uncertain future.

March 17 Brent Johnson, Whitney Baker, Michael Every, Izabella Kaminska, John Butler: DOLLAR ENDGAME
In this first session of The Future of Gold, Alexej Jordanov hosts Brent Johnson, Whitney Baker, Michael Every, Izabella Kaminska and John Butler on a heated panel exploring the macro endgame of the current monetary order.
We explore whether we are nearing the end of the dollar’s dominance, what role stablecoins could play in extending U.S. monetary power, and why gold may be re-emerging as the ultimate neutral reserve asset.
We go through late-cycle debt excesses, the decline in the productivity of credit, the shift from technocratic economics to economic statecraft, and the breakdown of the old rules-based order. At the center is a sharp debate over whether stablecoins represent “dollarization on steroids” and a new tool for U.S. control, or whether growing global imbalances and rising demand for gold point instead to a more disruptive reset of the system.
