Harvard Economist Who Said Bitcoin Would Fall to $100... (Oops)
He said Bitcoin was more likely to fall to $100 than ever hit $100,000.Seven years later, Bitcoin broke $100K… and Harvard economist Kenneth Rogoff is still doubling down. In this video, I break down why he was wrong then, why he’s still wrong now, and how Bitcoin keeps humiliating its critics.📚 Rogoff literally co-wrote the book on how governments always inflate and debase their money (This Time is Different), but somehow couldn’t see that Bitcoin price continues to appreciate in part because of that exact cycle. Instead, he blamed “criminals,” “lack of regulation,” and even regulators holding Bitcoin. Meanwhile… his ow...

Die neue Weltfinanzordnung
Der Anteil des US-Dollars an den globalen Währungsreserven ist auf 56,3 Prozent gefallen. Das ist der niedrigste Stand seit 30 Jahren. China arbeitet systematisch daran, die Dollar-Dominanz zu brechen und wickelt einen immer größeren Anteil des Handels nicht mehr in Dollar, sondern in Renminbi ab. Schon jetzt liegt der Anteil bei rund 30 Prozent, nachdem auch Saudi-Arabien begonnen hat, die chinesische Währung zu akzeptieren. Bilaterale Währungsswap-Linien mit über 40 Zentralbanken – von Argentinien über die Türkei bis Saudi-Arabien – im Gesamtvolumen von 591 Milliarden Dollar etablieren China als faktischen Kreditgeber letzter Instanz für Schwellenländer.

Geopolitical Economy Report
US dollar dominance could end very fast, warn top economists. This is how
The dominance of the US dollar as the global reserve currency has been gradually declining for years, but Donald Trump's policies could rapidly accelerate de-dollarization and the transition to a more multipolar international financial order, warn even mainstream American economists like Barry Eichengreen and Kenneth Rogoff. Political economist Ben Norton reviews the evidence.

A National Bestseller –– Recommended by Financial Times as “What to Read in 2025”Our Dollar, Your Problem argues that America’s currency might not have reached today’s lofty pinnacle without a certain amount of good luck. Drawing in part on his own experiences, including with policymakers and world leaders, Kenneth Rogoff animates the remarkable postwar run of the dollar—how it beat out the Japanese yen, the Soviet ruble, and the euro—and the challenges it faces today from crypto and the Chinese yuan, the end of reliably low inflation and interest rates, political instability, and the fracturing of th...

Is China Coming For The Dollar?
The U.S. dollar reigns supreme, but its role as the default global currency is increasingly under scrutiny. In his new book, Our Dollar, Your Problem, today's guest Ken Rogoff argues the greenback’s primacy might erode faster than expected. The biggest challenge might not be the status of the dollar as a reserve currency, but as the preferred unit of global exchange. Some of the U.S.’ biggest rivals, Rogoff argues, are increasingly uncomfortable with the U.S. controlling the rails of global finance through the dollar, and – from Russia to especially China – our adversaries are testing alternatives to dolla...

IL38: Our Dollar, Your Problem ft. Kenneth Rogoff
What if the most dangerous thing in the global economy isn’t a shock — but the quiet collapse of the frameworks we still rely on?In this rare, unfiltered conversation, Kenneth Rogoff — Harvard professor and former IMF Chief Economist — joins Kevin Coldiron to confront the reality that’s too uncomfortable for most policymakers to admit:The world has changed. The models haven’t.Rogoff explores what happens when inflation refuses to respond, debt compounds beneath the surface, AI reshapes productivity, and geopolitics redraws the map — while central banks keep playing by yesterday’s rules.Thi...

Beyond the cost of living crisis
The Bank of England says inflation might reach 11 per cent this year. There are warnings that some people will have to choose between heating and eating. But what does it mean for the whole economy when prices just keep rising? In the 1970s inflation in the UK led to prices and wages spiralling as workers fought for wages that would keep up with prices. Those years were dominated by waves of strikes and social unrest as inflation became embedded in the economic system. The current situation is being exacerbated by Covid 19, the war in Ukraine...

Each of these stories are relevant to topics I have previously discussed. The United Kingdom’s Investigatory Powers Bill contains specific language forcing private individuals to turn over information protected by “electronic protection,” meaning encryption.

Rogoff’s editorial that I discussed in Episode 14 was crafted in such a way to avoid disclosing too many of his biases, but this interview did not allow him to tailor his message in such a way. This interview supports my inferences in that previous episode: the war on cash is far more about increasing control and in...

I discuss an article by Kenneth Rogoff (linked below) in which he advocates abolishing any U.S. dollar bill denominations above $10. He believes the government should dictate what are “reasonable” cash transactions. Countless infringements upon civil liberties have been perpetrated in the name of fighting criminals and terrorists, and the war against cash is no different, in my opinion.
