🎯 Episode Thesis

Gold isn’t obsolete. The system is.

In this episode of BitCorner Podcast, Alex Stanczyk, a former gold fund manager turned Bitcoin advocate, breaks down the monetary transition unfolding in real time.

We go beyond surface-level inflation talk and into structural shifts:

• The legacy of Bretton Woods

• The truth about Fort Knox

• Why gold never fixed the system

• And why Bitcoin represents something categorically different

This is not a “gold vs Bitcoin” debate.

It’s a conversation about broken monetary architecture, institutional fragility, and why capital is migrating toward harder assets in an era of accelerating debasement.

If you want macro clarity without noise: this episode delivers.
