Bitcoin price dipped below $113,000 in the last 24 hours as market sentiment deteriorated further into fear territory. This outcome underscored the rising short term uncertainty around price.
BitMEX co-founder and former CEO Arthur Hayes just published a blog that offers a different perspective on Bitcoin prospects. Hayes revealed in the post that the Trump administration was pushing deeper towards devaluing the U.S dollar and that this would benefit Bitcoin.
According to Hayes, the U.S. government’s strategy aims to reshape U.S. monetary policy. The BitMEX co-founder also noted that the dollar devaluation efforts will be characterized by aggressive money printing.
Hayes expects the U.S government to print as much as $15 trillion, which will enter the market as fresh debt. He also expects a substantial amount of this liquidity to find its way into Bitcoin.
Analyst Reveals: Bitcoin and Stablecoins Could be Pivotal in the Dollar Devaluation
Macroeconomics analyst Andrei Jikh explored further how the U.S. government could be planning to use the devaluation for a financial system reset.
The analyst acknowledged that the U.S does indeed plan to conduct a financial system reset and that crypto and stablecoins were a key part of the government’s strategy. Since the U.S government plans to use stablecoins to expand the U.S dollar’s reach across the world.
The plan to mint new money will lead to more cash chasing the same amount of goods and services. This move is expected to lead to higher inflation. This inflation will also be exported across the world since the U.S dollar is the global reserve currency.
The U.S has been increasingly focusing on stablecoins, and for a good reason. According to Jikh, Stablecoins represent an avenue for the U.S to expand its dollar reach beyond the country’s boundaries. This is also why bonds and treasuries are rapidly being deployed on-chain to secure global liquidity.
However, the dollar’s expansion through stablecoins also means liquidity can easily flow into other assets. This is why Bitcoin is uniquely positioned to suck up excess liquidity as investors rush to deflationary assets. This impact was already evident on the Gold chart.
Gold Price Soars to a New All-time High, Where’s Bitcoin Price Headed?
Gold pushed as high as $3,790 in the last 24 hours, which marked a new ATH. According to Mr. Jikh, this recent rally was likely because other countries including Russia and China have been aggressively growing their Gold holdings.
The analyst believes that this could be because they understand the U.S. game plan, which will export inflation. More countries, especially U.S. rivals, have also been leaning towards deploying their own stablecoins.
This push towards gold underscores rising concern about the potential implications of these economic changes. The U.S. has been attempting to regain dollar dominance through stablecoins. On the other hand, rising inflation threatens to negatively affect the global economy.
So, what happens to markets when inflation becomes persistent and money, as the world knows it changes? This uncertainty is one of the key reasons behind the recent surge in gold demand.
However, it also raises curiosity regarding how Bitcoin price will fare in the short term and long term. Rising inflation may also encourage Bitcoin adoption as investors attempt to escape currency devaluation.
This devaluation continues to make a solid case for cryptocurrencies as a more preferable hard money.
