Our next guest is in town for debate with CZ, founder of Shipgold and Chief Economist for Euro Pacific Asset Management.

Peter Schiff joins us now. Peter, nice to see you again.

Well, nice to be seen.

All right, the last time you and I spoke, you said when you come to crypto conferences, people come

up to you all the time and thank you for introducing them to the path of looking for hard

assets and that sometimes leads them to Bitcoin.

Has that happened here yet?

Well, you know, I haven't really heard people say that. A lot of people have come up to me

and just asked her selfies and said, you know, hey, I'm a big fan. I've been following you, but

nobody has really mentioned that I'm the reason that they own crypto yet. But I'm sure that's the

case. But that was what happening to me very frequently in the U.S. But I'm sure that's the case. But that was happening to me very frequently in the U.S.

when I was at the conference in May. And probably because I think a lot more people know about me

in the United States because that's where I'm based and that's where I initially got popular.

So I probably had a lot of influence among Americans who found their way to Bitcoin.

You know, when I first got popular, it was after the financial crisis hit.

So 2009, 2010, 2011.

And that's when Bitcoin kind of came on the scene very you know underneath the

radar but as people started finding out about it you know 2013 14 15 you know

17 a lot of those people were people who had already been reading my stuff and

following me and yeah that's they eventually ended up at Bitcoin. And had I not opened their eyes to

sound money and Austrian economics and this, you know, understanding the Fed and fiat money,

they may never have, you know, gotten into Bitcoin, or at least not at the time that they did.
