Today we discuss all things finance and fiat with Henry Minden of Yacht Labs and the spaces crew, including how the US dollar is not a store of value, what is The Federal Reserve, do we need formal government, & how CBDCs (Central Bank Digital Currencies) are anti-freedom.

This conversation was started during ATX DAO and Crypto Mondays Austin's talk with Nitin Gauer, "From Chaos to Order: Taking Crypto to the Next Level."

In order to get this episode up, we had to redact a few things.
