In this week’s episode of Live from the Vault, Andrew Maguire is joined by Alasdair Macleod
to examine the East’s blossoming relationship with gold as they’re beating the markets by
securing local currencies and commodities against its value.
The London whistleblower broaches gold’s vital role in a looming credit collapse, which the East
seem to have foreseen with greater clarity than the West, before tackling the esoteric nuances
behind CBDCs and decentralised currencies.
