Iran currency collapses - What works when money stops working? BTC, Gold or the real Bitcoin, BSV?
Today, Iran’s national currency — the rial — has effectively stopped working.
Markets froze, prices became meaningless, savings evaporated, and ordinary people were left paying the price for political and monetary failure. This isn’t just another headline. It’s what happens when money is tightly bound to politics, sanctions, and central control.
In this video, I look at Iran’s currency collapse and ask a simple, practical question:
What actually works when money stops working?
I compare the usual alternatives people turn to in moments like this:
Bitcoin BTC — slow, congested, and expensive to use
Gold — valuable, but impractical in a digital economy
Bitcoin SV (BSV) — designed to scale, low-cost, and usable as real digital cash
This isn’t ideology. It’s about real-world usability under stress.
When currencies fail, theory no longer matters. What matters is what people can actually use to store value, transact, and keep economic life moving.
Iran is not unique. It’s simply today’s example.
If you care about sound money, monetary resilience, or why Bitcoin was meant to scale — this conversation matters.
