ANNOUNCEMENT: We've created a gathering of the best macro thinkers at the most important site in monetary history.

Introducing... Bretton Woods: The Realignment

- Executive Level only
- $100 billion in AUM
- Capped at 250 attendees

Here’s why we’re doing this. 1/
2/ In 1944, the Bretton Woods Conference brought together leaders from 44 nations to rebuild the monetary system.

WWII had just ended. It was time to start fresh.

As a result of the Bretton Woods Agreement, the US dollar was officially crowned the world's reserve currency.
3/ But there’s one key detail.

The US dollar was backed by the world’s largest gold reserves.

Until 1971, when Richard Nixon yanked the US off the gold standard.

This sparked the downfall of the Bretton Woods system.

50 years later, that new system is no longer working.
4/ So, what's the future of money?

On April 11-13, we’ll answer that question.

Hosted at the same venue hotel as the original conference, Blockworks will gather the world’s premier economists, macro analysts, and investors.

On Day 1, we’ll cover the current economic landscape
5/ And on Day 2, the world’s economic future will be discussed:
6/ At Bretton Woods: The Realignment, you’ll have the opportunity to mingle with the top minds in finance such as:

- @ttmygh
- @LynAldenContact
- @DTAPCAP
- @LukeGromen
- @JeffBooth
- @jc_econ

Many more that we’re announcing soon.
7/ This event is built on networking and discussion through fireside chats, debates, and group activities.

Media are not invited. Anything said in the room stays in the room.

Premium content and connections are our top priority.

Apply to attend today.

We could see negative 5-10% real interest rates in the U.S. soon.

@LukeGromen believes a bubble in sovereign debt could lead to these negative interest rates.

So what would this mean for hard assets like gold and Bitcoin?

Let's find out 👇
Quick overview:

The U.S. has experienced a collapse in real rates in recent months.

This means means inflation is greater than the nominal interest rate.

The yield on 10-year TIPS bonds is negative 1.04 and has hovered around negative 1% since August.
Why is this happening?

We’re experiencing the first global sovereign debt bubble in 100 years.

When a sovereign debt bubble bursts, governments only go bankrupt if they decide to not print money.
