Ever wonder why gold coins appear in nearly every movie, video game, and myth — from Lord of the Rings to Super Mario Bros.?
Deep down, humanity knows gold represents real value.
In this episode of Hidden Secrets of Value, Alan Hibbard unpacks why that instinct is correct — and why our modern monetary system is collapsing without it.
He explores the layers of money, revealing how the entire financial system rests on promises built atop a missing foundation: gold, silver, and bitcoin.
👉 In this video, you’ll discover:
The difference between decentralized and distributed systems — and why most crypto projects (and central banks) are not truly decentralized.
The Monetary Layer Pyramid, from Layer 1 (gold) to Layer 4 (credit cards).
Why fiat currencies like the U.S. dollar leak value — and why your energy and time are slipping away with them.
How the 1971 end of the gold standard removed the base layer, triggering decades of financial decay.
Why gold, silver, and bitcoin must return as the “Layer 1” foundation for personal and economic stability.
💡 Questions this episode explores:
Can any cryptocurrency truly be decentralized?
What’s the difference between security, scalability, and decentralization — and can all three exist together?
Why does everything in the economy feel unstable — and what can you do to fix it in your own life?
How do gold, silver, and bitcoin function as the true base layer of value?
Alan connects it all: physics, finance, and freedom.
If you’ve ever felt trapped on the financial treadmill, this episode shows how to step off — by rebuilding your foundation on honest money.
