I was joined by Peter Schiff, Piero Coen, Skot at Plan B Elsalvador as we discussed Gold vs Bitcoin, AI & a multipolar world, Bitcoin as freedom money for Latinos and open-source mining decentralizing Bitcoin.

Takeaways:

🔸Central banks are increasingly buying gold, indicating a shift in demand.

🔸The US dollar's status as a reserve currency is being challenged.

🔸AI has potential to increase productivity but may not solve economic issues.

🔸Peter Schiff remains skeptical about Bitcoin's long-term value.

🔸Wall Street's involvement has influenced Bitcoin's popularity.

🔸Bitcoin requires continuous new buyers to maintain its value.

🔸The transition to Bitcoin-only solutions is gaining traction.

🔸Building local exchanges is crucial for Bitcoin adoption in Central America.
