Palisades Gold Radio InterviewMonetary Metals CEO Keith Weiner was back on the Palisades Gold Radio podcast being interviewed by Tom Bodrovics. Keith revealed one key feature that gold has, which bitcoin does not.

First, Keith discusses how economists and experts tend to say the strangest things and most of their statements don’t pass basic scrutiny, what Keith calls the “sniff test”.

Gold has been accumulated for the last 5000 years. As a result physical scarcity is not possible. Gold is not consumed unlike other commodities like agriculture. Physical supply shortages are only possible at a particular price. Backwardation occurs in metals when people want to hold their gold more than dollars. Keith argues that because we don’t see backwardation often means the price cannot be massively suppressed.

Then, Keith and Tom discuss the United States and Canada how they have the least  understanding of gold markets in the world today. Most of the world understands the value of gold and silver because of their countries’ unstable currencies.

Next, Keith explains that dollars are illusory credits and are merely claims on wealth, not wealth itself. Fiat systems have become increasingly corrupted and this is why gold is the better option.

Tom and Keith discuss how global currencies are unsound and worsening. Bad behavior at a state level is trickling down to other parts of society. Keith argues that, eventually, there will be defaults but these may still be years away. Calculating the probability, severity, and consequences of a collapse is very difficult to predict due to the complexities of global systems.

Keith then discusses the importance of measuring assets in reference to a good standard. A dollar is a great unit of exchange but a terrible unit of measure. Investors should be calculating their assets against gold ounces to determine and compare their net worth.

Lastly, he explains the issues of unintended consequences due to government actions affecting everything from labor to logistics. The lobbyists are always encouraging the government and often the problems are magnified and exacerbated.
