Less Noise, More Signal
Welcome to Less Noise, More Signal. In a world saturated with news, hype, and endless chatter, finding clarity can seem like searching for a needle in a haystack. I have taken on this challenge and made it my mission to cut through the noise by amplifying the signal.
Who am I? I am Pascal Hügli. With a background in political philosophy, a career in investment management, and a deep expertise in Bitcoin and digital assets, I am here to explore the ideas and connections that others do not bother to see. It’s not just about finding the right answers; it’s about asking the right questions.
In each episode, I interview the most insightful thinkers in their respective fields. Every guest contributes a vital piece to the puzzle, helping us form a clearer picture of the forces shaping our world of macro, finance, and money.
Listen in as my guests and I tilt the balance from noise to signal, one podcast episode at a time. Let’s cut through the clutter and focus on what truly matters. Ready to elevate your understanding? Let’s dive in.

Luke Gromen: US capital controls are inevitable! Here’s what you need to know
In this conversation, Luke Gromen and Pascal Hügli discuss the complexities of the current economic landscape, focusing on capital controls, tariff strategies, and the implications of the U.S. dollar's reserve status. They emphasize the contradictions in U.S. economic policies and the need for a neutral reserve asset to address imbalances. Gromen argues that bitcoin is perfectly positioned for global capital controls and would thus profit tremendously. The discussion also highlights the challenges faced by the US in projecting military power and managing its debt, as well as the potential for a shift towards a new monetary order.
