#1017 Max Keiser On Helping A Nation Build On The Bitcoin Standard

I'll tell you the direction of Bitcoin: It's up. If you hold it for three or maybe three and a half years, anyone who's held it for three and a half years or four years is in the black. So, if you've got a time frame of—which is not a long time frame—three and a half or four years, you're going to be in the black.

You have political breakdown, you have societal breakdown, you have economic breakdown. People should be buying Bitcoin like their life depended on it—because it does.

The adoption is definitely tied to understanding Bitcoin, and we know that the more you learn about Bitcoin, the more of a maximalist you become. Nobody who learns about Bitcoin fails to become a maximalist. Only people who really don't take the time to learn about it are left in the camp of a no-coiner or a skeptic.

What I always talk about first whenever I talk to people is the quality of Bitcoin where it's unconfiscatable. This is really unique in history. We've never had, as a species, the opportunity to have wealth that's absolutely unconfiscatable—and that resonates. People like that idea.

Bitcoin is a risk-off investment. It's not risk-on; it's risk-off. This is where you put your safe haven cash.

Everything that's not Bitcoin, as I've said on your show before, would come under the heading of either relatively or absolutely centralized versus Bitcoin, which is uniquely decentralized.
