✨ DEBRIEF | Unpacking the Episode: https://shows.banklesshq.com/p/debrief-noah  ----- Noah Smith is a writer economist, with fiercely independent takes that he articulates with precision and clarity. We see him as a knowledgable crypto outsider, which is a rare trait we've seen throughout the posts on his blog, Noahpinion. In today's episode, we cover geopolitics in broad strokes—Noah thinks we're already at war in the form of an economic showdown between the New Allies and New Axis. We also turn to crypto, where Noah gives his bull case while also addressing some misconceptions he sees in the crypto community. The sum of all of this is an episode title we thought we'd never see on Bankless—The Future is Fiat. ------ 🚀 SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER:          https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/  🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST:                 http://podcast.banklesshq.com/  ------ BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS:  ⚖️ ARBITRUM | SCALING ETHEREUM https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum  ❎ ACROSS | BRIDGE TO LAYER 2 https://bankless.cc/Across  🦁 BRAVE | THE BROWSER NATIVE WALLET https://bankless.cc/Brave  💠 TRUEFI | CRYPTO FINANCIAL HUB https://bankless.cc/TrueFi  🔐 SEQUENCE | ALL-IN-ONE PLATFORM https://bankless.cc/Sequence  ⚡️FUEL | THE MODULAR EXECUTION LAYER https://bankless.cc/Fuelpod  ------ Topics Covered: 0:00 Intro 6:00 Noah Smith Respects Nerds 11:00 The War Economy 19:20 The New Axis 23:30 Battle of the Titans 30:50 Different Capabilities 35:02 Why Does This Matter? 39:00 Taiwan 45:20 Sanctioning China 50:35 The Path to War 57:15 High Level Crypto 1:02:20 Crypto In Conflict 1:09:45 Weakening Nation States 1:15:40 Crypto Misconceptions 1:26:10 A New Economy 1:32:10 Ponzis 1:40:48 The Fate of the Dollar 1:45:25 Bullish Rabbits ------ Resources: Noah Smith https://twitter.com/Noahpinion?s=20&t=kKYOtZ37UkLtwZ4WGmDT6Q  Noahpinion https://noahpinion.substack.com/  Freedom's Forge https://www.amazon.com/Freedoms-Forge-American-Business-Produced/dp/0812982045  NOAH'S WRITING: The War Economy https://noahpinion.substack.com/p/the-war-economy-sizing-up-the-new  The Danger Zone https://noahpinion.substack.com/p/book-review-danger-zone  Could We Sanction China? https://noahpinion.substack.com/p/could-we-sanction-china-if-we-had  Blockchains, Dollarization, and Capital https://noahpinion.substack.com/p/blockchains-dollarization-and-capital  Room for One More Bubble https://noahpinion.substack.com/p/i-think-bitcoin-has-room-for-one  Economic Misconceptions of the Crypto World https://noahpinion.substack.com/p/economic-misconceptions-of-the-crypto  Amway Culture https://noahpinion.substack.com/p/is-web3-culture-similar-to-amway  Central Bank Digital Currencies https://noahpinion.substack.com/p/central-bank-digital-currencies-are  NFTs Will Probably Be Back https://noahpinion.substack.com/p/nfts-will-probably-be-back  Beating Inflation https://noahpinion.substack.com/p/how-much-will-beating-inflation-hurt  No, America is Not Collapsing https://noahpinion.substack.com/p/no-america-is-not-collapsing  Techno-Optimism https://noahpinion.substack.com/p/techno-optimism-for-2022  Lovecraftian Intelligence https://noahpinion.substack.com/p/lovecraftian-intelligence?sd=pf  Sci-Fi Futures We Didn't Get https://noahpinion.substack.com/p/the-sci-fi-futures-we-didnt-get  New Industrialism https://noahpinion.substack.com/p/a-new-industrialist-roundup  Liberalism is Resilient https://noahpinion.substack.com/p/liberalism-is-resilient  ----- Not financial or tax advice.
