I’m your host, Kane McGukin, and today I’m joined by Matthew Mežinskis, widely known as @1basemoney. Matthew is one of the sharpest analysts on global liquidity, central bank balance sheets, and the role of base money in the evolving financial system. In this conversation, we break down how money actually moves from gold to central bank reserves to a system now dominated by liquidity that most people can’t even access. We get into why 2008 changed everything, how bank reserves quietly replaced real money, and why that shift may be pushing the system toward a breaking point. And we ask the question that matters: is Bitcoin just another asset, or is it the next base layer of the global monetary system? If you’re tired of hype and want a first-principles breakdown of how the monetary system actually works, and where Bitcoin fits, this episode is for you. So sit back, relax, and let’s get started.
