AI Summary
5 min readIn one of the most visually direct arguments for hard money you will ever see, a guest on the MEMES podcast holds up a chart of global paper money that "just goes up and up and up" and then places it next to a physical silver coin. "They can make as much of this as they want," he says, gesturing at the fiat currency. "They can't" do the same for silver. The entire episode is built around this single, stark comparison: unlimited paper versus a finite, depleting metal.
