Lyn Alden: "Time for politicians to be honest about our monetary problems"

Paul Buitink talks to Lyn Alden, founder of Lyn Alden Investment Strategy and author of Broken Money. Lyn is a strong advocate for freedom of speech and is hoping decentralized media like Nostr will flourish in current times of censorship. On the money front Lyn and Paul discuss the euro, the big debt problems in the developed world and how decentralized money such as Bitcoin could be the solution. They also talk about gold and whether the recent record amounts of the yellow metal bought by central banks could usher in a new gold standard. Lyn ends with some monetary policy advice.
