Rate hikes are just a smokescreen. The question of 'to hike or not to hike' is insignificant in the face of $40 trillion in U.S. debt. Neither the Fed nor the U.S. government is seriously debating rate hikes—they’re focused on what to do about this $40 trillion debt. That’s the real crisis at hand. If other countries are still willing to take on U.S. Treasuries, the debt crisis can be delayed a bit. But at this point, no one trusts U.S. debt anymore—everyone’s hoarding gold. The Treasury’s yield curve control is already a clear signal. What’s coming next is a global fiat currency crisis. Rate hikes or no rate hikes? That’s a minor issue. Inflation? It’s already inevitable (hyperinflation is a given). The real question the Treasury and the Fed are working on is how to politely dilute the currency. Tariff wars and external wars—Trump tried both, and neither worked. The only remaining path is to cut rates to zero and use QE to dilute the debt. The East is pumping gold, the West is pumping BTC. That’s the main trading logic. #Finance #Crypto #Gold #BTC
