Dan Morehead pivoted his hedge fund - Pantera Capital - to a pure play crypto hedge fund before the rest in 2013 and has reaped the rewards since. He first bought Bitcoin when it was priced at $65 compared to the $115,000 price today. Dan talks in detail to Wilf about the extraordinary conviction he has in blockchain - "the most asymmetric trade of all time" - which has allowed him to maintain his positions in the face of massive gains and massive drawdowns. He outlines why he thinks blockchain will play a central role in the next decade and century of the financial industry, the attractions of Solana and why he has launched a Solana digital asset treasury company. He also explains why Bitcoin has won the use case of "digital gold" and won't be surpassed in that. Dan reflects on the important change in approach from President Trump towards crypto; why he is a believer in digital asset treasury companies (like Tom Lee's BitMine Immersion Technologies and Michael Saylor's Microstrategy) over crypto ETFs; and one of the key bull arguments for the space - that 'smart money' institutions don't own crypto...yet.

Renowned historian Sir Niall Ferguson discusses the comparisons between two of America’s most controversial leaders - Richard Nixon and Donald Trump - with the help of Wilf's Dad's legendary Frost–Nixon interviews. They cover the boundaries of executive power, use of tariffs and other shock economic strategies, and the high-wire act of geopolitical brinkmanship with China and Russia. Ferguson reveals Nixon and Trump’s surprising parallels and unlikely connections, from early political prophecies to tariffs, anti-globalist instincts, and the shadow of constitutional crisis. Essential listening for anyone obsessed with the past and future of the American presidency, global power shifts, and what happens when history repeats itself—live on the world stage.

Legendary financial historian Sir Niall Ferguson joins Wilfred Frost on The Master Investor Podcast for a wide-ranging discussion that uncovers the seismic shifts shaping today’s global economy. Ferguson explains why U.S. debt, surging interest payments, and new tariffs spell both warning and opportunity, and dissects the interplay between gold, Bitcoin, and the weakening dollar in a world primed for volatility. The conversation probes China's explosive yet fragile ascent, Europe’s Ukraine dilemma amid shifting American priorities, and Britain’s recurrent struggle with stagnation—drawing bold historical parallels from the Gilded Age in 1890s America to the 1970s. Candid, brilliant, and often contrarian, Ferguson offers unflinching investment lessons from his own mistakes, and shares sharp insights on how the West must adapt as leadership and power move East.
