More government debt, more potential opportunities for the crypto bulls.
One thing that is clear is that democracies around the world are having trouble getting deficit spending under control, Coinbase (COIN) CEO Brian Armstrong said at theCoinbase Annual Summitin New York City on Thursday. If you study history ... once you decouple currency from hard commodities, the inevitable story is they get overprinted and extended, right?
Armstrong said its not a coincidence that bitcoin (BTC-USD) prices are hitting records as US debt reaches all-time highs.
I want the US to remain the reserve currency status, he added. But if the debt situation doesnt get fixed, I do think that eventually bitcoin will have to become the reserve currency for better or worse. Its not going to be the Chinese RMB because I think they have their own debt problems.
Armstrong joins Tesla (TSLA) CEO Elon Musk in warning about the ramifications of rising government debt. Musk is fresh off a dustup with President Trump on the matter, slamming the debt projected to emanate from the administrations signature big, beautiful tax bill.
The crypto industry has seen a host of catalysts this year that have fed the bull narrative.
The Trump administration has moved to create a bitcoin strategic reserve (though its framework remains to be determined). Companies such as GameStop (GME) and Strategy (MSTR) have beenbig buyers of bitcoin to diversify their cash holdings. Trump Media Technology (DJT) recently announced a plan to raise $2.5 billion to buy bitcoin.
