Anthony Pompliano on the Future of MONEY, and how BITCOIN Will Change The World As We Know It

There's an element of just understanding 'Hey, invest.' Because at this point, given the inflation and the monetary debasement, it is impossible, literally impossible, in America to get a financial security position by saving. They're debasing the currency. 38% of all dollars in circulation were printed in last 18 months.

Look at the stock market. The stock market from 1971 to today is up and to the right. So, a perfect 45 degree angle ... When you denominate it in gold, it's down since 1971. If you denominate it in Bitcoin since 2009/2010, it has crashed aggressively.

If you think of money or finance as a game, there's really one key rule that everyone has to understand, which is the dollars will be worth less in purchasing power terms over a long period of time.

33% of millionaires in America never made more than $100,000 in a single year.

45% of Americans hold no investable assets.

80% of millionaires in the United States inherited $0.

The more power that you give to governments, the more that they encroach on personal freedoms, individual liberties, etc.

I could talk to somebody all day long, and they can tell me Bitcoin's not valuable. The best retort to that is it's a trillion-dollar asset that has tens of millions of people around the world holding it, and it does more transaction volume than some of the card networks.

If you look at gold, gold's market cap is about $10 trillion; Bitcoin today is $1 trillion. I fully believe that Bitcoin is not only going to drastically eclipse gold's market cap, but it will be a market-expanding technology.

Every single rich person understands how to benefit from the system: Hold assets, not a currency. Don't hold the dollar. Instead, hold the assets.

Over $2 trillion dollars of fiat currency are just money laundering every year—used for illicit purposes, which is about the size of the entire crypto industry, not just Bitcoin, but the entire crypto industry. So, it's a very big number.

In the month of July [2021], 1.2 million new users came onto the Bitcoin blockchain... which is the fastest it's ever grown in a single month.
