Published in 2007, 'The Big Reset' garnered considerable attention after the financial crisis in 2008 due to Middelkoop's beliefs regarding the impending collapse of the dollar system as a result of mounting debt and economic instability. In this conversation, he reflects on how his viewpoint has progressed since 'The Big Reset's debut and the emergence of Bretton Woods 3.0 from the eastern world, as well as the shift towards commodity-based currencies. *Palisade Radio Links:* ► Website & Newsletter: https://palisadesradio.ca ► Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-1586024 ► Odysee: https://odysee.com/@PalisadesGoldRadio:c ► BitChute: https://www.bitchute.com/channel/67kk... Middelkoop highlights the importance of gold in the context of evolving reserve currencies and its function as a hedge against currency devaluation. He underscores the significance of comprehending the process rather than fixating on timing when anticipating these financial transitions.

Independent researcher Roger Breuer has written an extensive report on one of our core holdings, Tinka Resources Its Ayawilca project is shaping up remarkably well economically as it continues to grow. It’s little surprise that Tinka has attracted two Latin American producers, Buenaventura (19%) and Nexa Resources (18%), as significant shareholders. Both mention Ayawilca as a future-producing mine. Is a bidding war next?
