Do Banks Run the Government

Strike Team

May 27, 2024

Welcome to the Money Matters podcast, brought to you by Jack Mallers, Dylan Lieteau, Bill Mallers Jr., and Brooke Mallers. In this episode, Bill looks at the performance of precious metals, real estate, and the stock market, and how their gains share a common factor: they are all priced in dollars. The hosts also discuss the approval of the Ethereum ETF and the early history of Ethereum. Jack shares his theory on why banks benefit from and are incentivized to lobby for more crypto ETF approvals, particularly after the successful launch of the Bitcoin ETF, the best-performing ETF debut ever. Additionally, they talk about Bitcoin in the U.S. presidential election, Trump's pro-Bitcoin stance, and hope for Ross Ulbricht. Finally, Jack and Dylan address viewer questions, including how to get on the zero fiat lifestyle, and the story behind the Bitcoin car, a historic moment for the Bitcoin community.
