About this episode
Is the global monetary system is cracking? In this episode, Joe Consorti explains why gold’s record-breaking surge is a warning signal, how sovereigns are accelerating a shift in global finance, and why bitcoin may soon explode after months of consolidation. We cover the Fed’s race to respond faster to every crisis, what renewed liquidity means for risk assets, and how monetary easing could fuel the next leg of bitcoin adoption. Joe also breaks down Strategy’s STRC and why digital credit could redefine yield as capital moves from fiat to bitcoin-based instruments.Timestamps:00:00 - Intro and welcome to The Mustard Seed Podcast00:35 - Why gold is up 62% in 202503:18 - The global monetary reordering underway06:14 - Why bitcoin can still move violently higher11:13 - Why bitcoin beats gold as a store of value13:21 - How banks now view bitcoin as part of the gold trade16:20 - Why gold is outperforming bitcoin this year20:35 - How the Fed, shutdowns, and tariffs weigh on bitcoin24:05 - Why the Fed’s crisis response time keeps accelerating29:17 - Why the Fed can’t allow a protracted bear market35:16 - Comparing 2021’s tightening to today’s easing cycle40:10 - What happens when liquidity returns to markets44:58 - Introducing digital credit and MicroStrategy’s STRC48:39 - Why STRC could attract yield-hungry investors52:09 - Why bitcoin’s next breakout could be explosive54:29 - Final thoughts and closing advice from Joe Consorti
