About this episode
Is everything you’ve been told about deflation a lie? In Episode 9 of our 12-part series on the groundbreaking book "Everything Divided By 21 Million," we sit down with legendary Bitcoin philosopher Knut Svanholm to dismantle the "government daycare" version of economics.
We dive deep into why deflation is the natural state of a free market, why the "free lunch" is the root of all evil, and why true capitalism has actually never been tried. If you’ve ever wondered why your money loses value while technology gets cheaper, this episode provides the "red pill" moment you’ve been looking for.
