After saving the economy and market from the 2008 GFC, QE has turned from the over prescribed pain killer into a full blown opioid crisis. We're starting to see the consequences now of a decade long reckoning where everyone enjoyed cheap money and malinvestments with little consequences. But that might be changing. All of the historical analysis on btc has been done through the lens of low interest rates. What will btc do, now that QE era might be coming to an end?
Crypto does not care. They have their own money printing out of air. BitFinex keeps printing a billion USDT almost every other day. And we are here to believe that some institutions giving known fraudsters billions rather than just buy BTC themselves.
QE is very unlikely coming to and end. They appear trapped now, just like Japan has been for ages. There is no exit... This is what happens when you don't pay attention to other countries and think that magically, somehow... this won't happen to you.
You're saying as if 300% global debt/gdp is somehow sustainable and the right tragectory. Sure, they can choose to delay it, but i think we see the next lost decade as a result of this, sooner or later.
That's why they need endless wars to divert the public, with the added benefit of inflation to reduce their real debt. It won't work since the promised debt obligation is too massive to ever achieve. The US Empire is on its last days and will most likely split into multiple countries post 2033.
That may be true. By 1971 the US already defaulted on its gold obligations. The French knew it was coming, and wanted their bars back before the default. The US said go fuck off France. lol
Hey RedDuke... off topic here, but what are you thinking about this bitcoin rally and your desire to get in? I think you wanted to start buying below 10k, do you still think its going to go there, or will you be left behind? I noticed you said in another post that you did buy some ETH but what about bitcoin? I'm asking genuinely because I know how strong the emotional side is. I barely got anything around the 16-17k level as I was hoping for lower prices and now, I've had to be buying in the low 20's and can still buy a good chunk more but of course, the rally has already been large. But what if it breaks 30k and then its off to the races??? Are you feeling the same FOMO?
