ℹ️ EPISODE SUMMARY
Bram Kanstein and Joe Consorti unpack how fiat money distorts everything—from college costs to GDP manipulation to real estate speculation. We break down how Bitcoin flips the script as the only verifiably scarce asset left. We also dive deep into the housing market’s $130T+ speculative premium, why institutions are buying Bitcoin, and why that’s not a threat. If you still think your house or retirement fund is a “safe bet,” this episode will challenge everything.
