We can agree we are in a time of transition, so what is the next best move?
In today’s episode of Impact Theory, we’ve got a hot debate between economists and investing experts Raoul Pal and Peter Schiff as we discuss Bitcoin and the future of the economy.
Raoul Pal has become a legend in global economics as one of the most successful former hedge fund managers (retired at 36), and his insights into the current recession, global economy, and volatile markets are well respected.
Peter Schiff is a seasoned Wall Street prognosticator known for his spot on predictions of the stock market performance, including gold, commodities, and the mighty dollar.
In this debate, we’re touching on:
- Value vs. price
- Potential currency collapse and its effects
- Bitcoin's allure and the comparison with gold standard
- Market impact predictions of the 2024 election
- AI's potential to alleviate economic problems
- Differing ways to prepare for hyperinflation or financial repression
- Asset value in a volatile market
- The growing national debt and potential hyperinflation
- Historical patterns of financial repression
- Blockchain technology and digital asset utilization
- The future of Social Security
This episode is a must watch for anyone who wants to look deep into the debates between gold and digital assets, investment strategies amid economic uncertainty, and the possibility of a great depression.

Powerful Insights From the Debate:
“Instead of taking your money by taxing you openly and directly or even indirectly through a sales tax, [the government] surreptitiously robs you of your purchasing power by just creating money out of thin air, usually with a complicit central bank."
- Peter Schiff
"I've always liked gold, but gold has not done particularly well in recent years. Against debasement on a globalized basis, it still works beautifully well as a global currency, and against global debasement over time. It works. But the really strong debasement we've been having in recent years, it just hasn't done well enough"
- Raoul Pal
"So I think people who are getting out of the dollar or the euro and buying bitcoin have jumped out of the frying pan into the fire."
- Peter Schiff
"What's harder is to say, what the hell does an economy mean after 2030, when you've got endless AI and robots and AGI? What what value do you provide in that world?"
- Raoul Pal
"Because the free market is trying to lower prices by increasing productivity, the government is raising them by creating inflation. And so it's a dance. But to the extent that we can have a huge surge in productivity that's driven by AI or robotics or a combination of the two, that's actually a good thing."
- Peter Schiff
“And I just urge all of us to just make sure that we don't get obsessed by our own mental models, because they will change, and the world changes. And sometimes we can be dead wrong, and sometimes we can be dead right."
- Raoul Pal
"Our ability to stimulate with QE, with inflation is predicated on the false belief that the fed could shrink the balance sheet, withdraw the liquidity, normalize interest rates, we can pay off the debt. When the markets come to the unfortunate realization that that's not true, then the bottom drops out and we can't kick the can down the road anymore because there's no more road."

That's why all of the big hitters are selling their stocks in their own companies , and why they have built and are ready to go into their underground bunkers . They know what's coming because they planned it all , and they know it's not going to be pretty . Especially for those on the surface , where they don't intend to be .

    This was one of the most fascinating debates I have ever listened to. I am seventy years old and have been self employed since my late twenties. I appreciated both sides of the discussion and the moderator did a fantastic job in controlling the debate and expressing his own views. I think it’s fair to say that this debate reflected generational differences which added to the interest. I totally "got" Peter Schiff's perspective because his is the rationalization that I have grown up with. However, I was intrigued by Raoul Pal's perspective and actually found it inspirational, and perhaps that is what is needed in this world right now more than anything else. Congratulations to you three gentlemen, you all did yourselves proud!

    They are both full of it. Bitcoin is a speculation product and a poor means of exchange Gold is a commodity and store of value but mostly propped up by peoples egos. Raoul exposed himself when he said the point he backs bitcoin is his ability to make money from it.. Dollars. It all comes back to making dollars - the real means of exchange. Both speakers have an agenda and bias, thanking them for that is foolish. Sorry, just being honest

    There is a generational issue here. Truth is, Bitcoin itself is the gateway to what the digital future will be. It's easy for Trad-fi to make a case against bitcoin while ignoring the fact that the real disruption is blockchain. Bitcoin and the word crypto are just unfortunate names that people without the understanding can get distracted. What is considered "real thing " is not going to be the same when blockchain becomes the source of truth. It's a good debate and hats off to RP for keeping his composure.

Peter is pretty solidly a Baby Boomer in strength of conviction and emphasis on values and continuity. Meanwhile Raoul is classic Gen-Xer, introducing a lot of space for uncertainty, self-critiquing and investigating the implicit biases of the different economic narratives.

Richard Heart will bring new information to the table in that he's figured out how to improve use as a currency, how to invest your asset to earn more of the asset (without wasting electricity in mining), & has both inflationary and deflationary properties.

    I don't think this is true. I think Gold is the best conductor. Why would they use gold for PCB components if silver is better and 80x cheaper? Same with cables, like high quality audio cables for example are gold plated, and marketed as gold plated for superior conductivity and less loss of the audio signal. Also, silver cables would tarnish over time, and again I'm not like a scientist so maybe I'm wrong, but it would seem like as the silver tarnishes it would be come worse and worse at conducting, where as gold doesn't tarnish.

    Actually I'd say the real value of something is determined by what it cost to replace it. Bitcoin has no value other then what people think/say it's worth, gold cost man power, diesel, equipment, repairs, land and taxes paid on it to replace this real asset. (And even with that, there's still a finite amount of it in the ground) You can do literally nothing with digital tokens other then trade them, they have no real/actual value, but unlike other assets they do hog up a lot of real world electric and computing power. I would also add gold= money for 5k years Bitcoin= money for what, 10- 15 years? Yeah, no, sounds like a fad to me.

    And your channel is great too, every minute of it. That said they never mentioned about confiscability of gold as was done several times in the past. In essence, Bitcoin is about Property Rights. For example, during WWII the nazi government looted over $200 million in gold from the Jews (which equates approximately to over $4 Billion in 2020 currency) to finance their wars to acquire more land. Because someone (or a government) can just kill you to take your gold. But today with Bitcoin (aka “digital gold”) they can still kill you but they cannot get the bitcoin(s) as easily as gold.

    And then what? If BTC is 2 or 3 million in 4 years, Schiff will still be able to say it "will go to zero, because it has no intrinsic value", and Pal could be saying BTC will bounce right back if BTC is around 5000 by that time. But what is obvious is that although there are extreme fluctuations, the lows are getting higher with each run. So, watching it again in 4 years will most likely be a disappointment, because it will give NO clear answer to who was right. But my money is on BTC.

And to give you start, i would like to point out that I am sure Raoul has seen an extreme growth of his wealth, since he has been in crypto since (I believe) 2012 or 2014. And that means he probably did much better than just being in stocks. By the way, Raoul could impossibly have been saying "exactly the same crap" since the GFC 2008, because nobody ever heard of cryptos in 2008 or 2009.

    Schiff makes the most sense here. If the global markets denominate value in the US dollar, the most dominant and accepted currency and that currency is inflationary and is losing value And all stablecoins are denominated in the US dollar-- and bitcoin is backed by stablecoins, all of which are denominated in the dollar. If the dollar fails, stablecoins fail. If stablecoins fail, bitcoin loses backing. Gold was valued before the world valued the US dollar. Can Bitcoin be backed by other hard assets, like gold?

While I kick myself every day for selling way prematurely, instead of realizing how many suckered there would be, I definitely agree with Peter's side. Bitcoin has no more intensic value than fiat currency. It makes no sense. It's like the great Tulip speculation. It's based on "muh technology" and "you boomers wouldn't understand". I was a 20 year old bitcoin (almost) millionaire and today I have gold, silver, guns, ammo, and real estate...Bitcoin never added up, I'm still skeptical that it's some globalist banker psyop tbh. Today it feels like people are reeled into it as a pump n dump dreaming of the massive upside people like me had...well...I think that's over. Any nominal rise in bitcoin will be due to pure speculation and inflation of the underlying fiat currencies used to purchase it.

    @@griftinggamer That’s an amazing story to have $8 BTC! I wouldn’t beat yourself up about selling it though, because nobody expected it to be this huge in such a relatively short period. Even Raul has a story of selling off a bunch of his Bitcoin after making huge gains on his early investment. I think the problem people have with taking cryptocurrencies seriously is that it’s human nature to cling to the way we’ve done things in the past. There’s a level of certainty in the status quo, and there’s its uncomfortable to branch out into something new. But once you explore the Crypto space and realize how many innovative projects are being developed, you really get the sense that this space will be a large part of the global economy. I’m convinced that anyone who doesn’t understand that part of the puzzle just hasn’t done any research in this space. I’m almost 50 and the overarching narrative of my lifetime (thus far), is that if you can’t keep up with emerging technologies then you’re going to be stuck in the slow lane doing things the hard way.

Instead of understanding that he’s in the inflation hedging business and not the gold business, he’s missed out on the biggest opportunity the world has ever seen. He still either fundamentally doesn’t understand a bitcoin or more likely he just sees what a threat bitcoin is to his gold business and is he’s lashing out. He’ll be ranting about what a poor investment bitcoin is as it passes $1 million in value.
