They leverage technology to create markets that are more liquid, transparent, and secure, with lower transactions costs and fewer barriers to entry. Markets that empower individuals to improve their own lives and help us address the biggest challenges that we face as a society — including the energy transformation and the transition to an AI-augmented economy. How do we build SmarterMarkets? We’re starting with our weekly podcast exploring how both markets and technology can be redesigned to better serve market participants and society as a whole. The podcast, presented by Abaxx Technologies, brings together the entrepreneurs, icons, and executives of commodities, capital markets and technology to rant on the inadequacies of our systems and riff on ideas for how to improve them.","last_synced_at":"2026-08-02T10:18:35.455426+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/smartermarkets-1365693"},"episode":{"title":"Special Episode | SmarterMarkets™ Encore: Ideas Worth Repeating with Michael DiRienzo, President & CEO, The Silver Institute","slug":"special-episode-smartermarkets-encore-ideas-worth-repeating-with-michael-dirienzo-president-ceo-the-silver-institute","published_at":"2026-05-23T13:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/smartermarkets-1365693/special-episode-smartermarkets-encore-ideas-worth-repeating-with-michael-dirienzo-president-ceo-the-silver-institute","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/smartermarkets-1365693","url":"https://smartermarkets.podbean.com/e/special-episode-smartermarkets%e2%84%a2-encore-ideas-worth-repeating-with-michael-dirienzo-president-ceo-the-silver-institute/","audio_url":"https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/tbk2c9wc528qjv9m/SM284_MichaelDiRienzo_Encore_Mix1_20260522.mp3","summary":"This week, we present SmarterMarkets™ Encore: Ideas Worth Repeating. We’re bringing back an episode that we brought you last May with Michael DiRienzo, President & CEO at The Silver Institute. During the conversation, David Greely and Michael discuss the outlook for silver, its role in the energy transition, and the role it can and should play in investor portfolios and in our financial system in the 21st century. Those topics are as relevant now as they were last year. One update: last year, we discussed that at the time, silver appeared undervalued as it took 100 ounces of silver to buy 1 ounce of gold. Of course, silver prices have climbed over the past year. Now it only takes roughly 60 ounces of silver to buy 1 ounce of gold in the physically deliverable gold and silver futures markets now trading on Abaxx Exchange in Singapore.","meta_description":"This week, we present SmarterMarkets™ Encore: Ideas Worth Repeating.
