Bitcoin & the $40 Trillion Debt Reckoning | Nik Bhatia
About this episode
“There is a reckoning. There is a point at which something has to be addressed.”
Nik Bhatia returns to get into America’s $40 trillion debt problem, why the real danger is the share of tax revenue being consumed by interest, and how continued Treasury bill issuance could eventually trigger stress in the repo market and force the Fed to intervene.
We discuss whether Treasury buybacks helped drive Bitcoin’s recent 20% rally, why the UK, France and Japan may face major monetary intervention before the United States, and how Washington is attempting to reclaim control of the offshore dollar system. Is the world entering a new kind of financial war?
Nik also explains why he believes Bitcoin’s bottom is in but the next bull market has not yet begun, what his liquidity indicators are signalling, and why the bond market could determine Bitcoin’s next major move.
