WORRIED ABOUT THE MARKET? SCHEDULE YOUR FREE PORTFOLIO REVIEW with Thoughtful Money's endorsed financial advisors at https://www.thoughtfulmoney.com Dollar Milkshake Theory creator, Brent Johnson sits down with me at the New Orleans Investment Conference to offer a detailed look into the rise and future role of USD stablecoins, which are being heartily embraced by the Trump Administration. Why exactly? In short, Brent sees the new stablecoin strategy as not just a means to soak up the $trillions in Treasury bonds that the US government will issue over the new year -- it's an entirely new currency system. It's a new form of sovereign control.
