Summary

Duke finance professor Campbell Harvey explains why the recession everyone expected never arrived, argues that AI-driven productivity is just getting started, and makes the case that crypto's biggest opportunity isn't speculation but tokenized real-world assets and stablecoins. He also challenges the idea that Bitcoin is "digital gold," explains why he believes Bitcoin remains highly volatile, and outlines a controversial thesis that derivatives markets could make a theoretical 51% attack on Bitcoin economically profitable. The conversation wraps up with why AI agents may become crypto's biggest long-term use case and how tokenization could reshape the global financial system. Learn more about your ad choices.
