Author: Dennis Tubbergen November 16, 2025 Duration: 38:31
End Game for Fiat: Why Bitcoin, Gold, and the AI Bubble Signal a Financial Reset In this eye-opening episode, Dennis Tubbergen sits down with Mark Jeftovic, publisher of The Bitcoin Capitalist, to dissect the warning signs flashing across financial markets. From OpenAI's shocking hints at government bailouts exposing the AI bubble, to bond yields defying Federal Reserve rate cuts for the first time in modern history, the traditional playbook is breaking down. Jeftovic explains why gold and Bitcoin are the "V-2 engine of sound money," reveals the emerging "stablecoin standard" that's creating new buyers for US debt, and warns that $78 trillion in private debt combined with margin debt exceeding $1 trillion has set a ticking time bomb. With 40% of Americans now living paycheck to paycheck and the Fed returning to its only remaining playbook—printing money—this conversation delivers crucial insights on navigating the coming stagflationary storm. Jeftovic shares practical allocation strategies for crypto, precious metals, and tokenized assets that every investor needs to hear before the great unraveling accelerates. Mark E. Jeftovic Mark is a 30-year veteran of the Internet, the co-founder & CEO of easyDNS Technologies, a Toronto-based web services company, and the author of two books about the internet; Unassailable: Protect Yourself from Cancel-Culture, and Deplatform Attacks, and other Online Disasters. Additionally, Jeftovic authors the blog site bombthrower.com and The CryptoCapitalist Newsletter.
