LIVE IN BEDFORD w/ Checkmate, Preston Pysh, Lawrence Lepard, James Lavish, Matt Pines & Alex Thorn
In this episode we have three sessions recorded live at CheatCode in Bedford. In the first session, Checkmate, Preston Pysh, and Alex Thorn break down the cracks in the fiat system, the rise of deglobalization, stablecoins, Bitbonds, and how Bitcoin and gold are emerging as neutral reserve assets. In the second session, Matthew Pines unpacks the global economic reordering, the U.S.–China trade war, escalating tariffs, the fragility of the bond market, and why Bitcoin may be the ultimate escape valve. In the final session, Lawrence Lepard, James Lavish, and Cameron Parry go deep on gold vs Bitcoin, the debt doom loop, the case for a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, and the fight for financial sovereignty.
