What's up, everyone? This is Anthony Pompliano. Most of you know me as Pomp. You're listening to the Pomp

macro strategist at Bianco Research LLC. Since 1990, Jim's commentaries have offered a unique

In nearly 20 years at Bianco Research, Jim's wide-ranging commentaries have addressed monetary policy,

the intersection of markets and politics, the role of government in the economy, fund flows,

and positioning in financial markets. We covered a lot in this conversation, including the current

state of the economy, how monetary policy decisions will drive future movements in the financial

markets, and why Jim believes the next global reserve currency will be a cryptocurrency.

The crypto.com app offers a full range of financial products with competitive pricing,

well-designed, user experience, and high security.

It is the best place to buy

and sell and pay with crypto. These guys have been longtime supporters of Off the Chain and the Pomp
