They also discuss Moody’s rating agency threatening to downgrade US debt due to rising inequality. In the second half, Max interviews Yo Sub Kwon of Hosh.io about the latest in security threats to cryptocurrency storage, exchanges and contracts. They also discuss whether or not quantum computing really poses any remotely imminent threat.

In the second half, Max interviews Alasdair Macleod of GoldMoney.com about the credit cycle turning and what this means for debtor nations like the United States.
