How Glint Turns Gold into Everyday Payments | Guest: Jason Cozens | Ep 077

Pirate Money Radio hosts Kevin Freeman and guest Jason Cozens, founder and CEO of Glint, explore how inflation, debt, and fiat money distort markets via the Cantillon Effect, widening the wealth gap and eroding the middle class. Cozens recounts his journey from architecture and e-commerce to building Glint, a fintech that enables everyday spending of allocated, vaulted gold via a Mastercard-linked app. Together, they argue for honest weights and measures through a modern gold standard at the personal and state levels, highlighting successful legislative momentum and real-world usability (buying goods, services, and peer-to-peer transfer). The discussion contrasts centralized digital currency control with gold’s enduring, apolitical store of value, positioning Glint as a practical bridge to sound money.
