Show Notes
Brent Johnson joins us in this Future of Gold Series to unpack why stablecoins may become far more than a crypto story. In this conversation, he argues that stablecoins could reinforce U.S. monetary power, reshape global commerce, and even evolve into a geopolitical tool of empire rather than just a new source of Treasury demand and potentially replace the Federal Reserve.
We also discuss the future of the dollar system, whether the Fed could gradually lose relevance, why macro and geopolitics now matter more than ever, and how Brent thinks about gold in a world where the dollar may remain dominant longer than most expect.

Is the global financial system approaching its breaking point? In this episode of Macroscopic, Alasdair Macleod warns of an unprecedented sovereign debt crisis that could threaten the very foundations of fiat currencies.
Henrik Zeberg returns to Macroscopic to explain why he believes markets are approaching the final stage of the economic cycle. While much of the market is focused on sticky inflation, rising bond yields and the risk of a sovereign debt crisis, Henrik argues that the real warning signs are emerging in the labour market, housing and credit.
Macro strategist Luke Gromen joins Alexej Jordanov to explain why both Fed rate hikes and rate cuts are now inflationary, why the US bond market, not the stock market, is the real bubble, and why he believes gold is headed to five figures.
Brent Johnson and Francis Hunt go head-to-head over the future of the US dollar and the Dollar Milkshake Theory. Hunt argues that rising Treasury yields increasingly reflect a loss of confidence in US debt, driving capital toward gold, commodities and eventually away from the dollar. Johnson pushes back: dollar strength was never the end goal of the theory, but a catalyst for a broader sovereign debt and currency crisis.
Alexej Jordanov speaks with Rabobank strategist Michael Every about a global system increasingly driven by statecraft, military power and control over physical resources rather than conventional market forces.
