In this powerhouse episode, we dive deep into the current state—and future—of money. Our guest, Scott from Block Rewards, shares his journey from managing pensions to raising $10 million in secured convertible funding for a bold new vision: transforming how people get paid through Bitcoin.

Scott breaks down why our traditional understanding of money is outdated, how inflation quietly erodes wealth, and why Bitcoin isn’t just another investment—it’s a paradigm shift. From the exponential growth of M2 to fractional reserve lending, from BRICS alternatives to U.S. dollar dominance, this conversation demystifies complex financial systems and positions Bitcoin as the most powerful store of value in modern history.

He also shares how Block Rewards is helping Canadian employers integrate Bitcoin into payroll and benefits packages—offering a radically new way to build wealth and attract top talent.
