Make It Stack #25 - Money printing: is there a problem?


Listen Later

In this episode, I talk about "fiat" currencies and the problems that arise with money printing.

Key summary:

  • History tells us that currencies face chronic debasement over the long term with the USD losing 95% of its purchasing power over the last 100 years.
  • When you hear "Quantitative Easing", think "central bank money printing".
  • Money printing causes: i) misallocations of capital ii) reduced affordability for consumers and iii) increased wealth inequality due to higher asset prices.
  • Sound money has the following properties: scarce, portable, divisible, durable, fungible, acceptable, censorship resistant.
  • Bitcoin could represent a better form of money with its algorithmic scarcity, portability and censorship resistance
  • Call to action: watch "Whats the problem?" by Joe Bryan on Youtube.
