Elon Musk, owner of X (formerly known as Twitter), and other experts, including Robert Kiyosaki, have voiced concerns about the economic direction of the United States. They highlight the adverse effects of excessive government spending and controversial actions by the Federal Reserve.
Warnings of a Potential Collapse
Musk and Kiyosaki see serious risks for the U.S. economy in the accumulation of national debt and increasing federal budget deficit. Musk expressed concerns, pointing to data indicating that by 2035 the U.S. deficit may rise by an additional $16 trillion, which he believes could lead to national bankruptcy and increased inflation. Macroeconomist Henrik Zeberg also noted that the current interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve could lead to a deep recession and deflation.
Bitcoin vs. Dollar Comparison
Bitcoin is becoming more popular as an alternative way to protect capital in times of economic uncertainty. Robert Kiyosaki has repeatedly emphasized that the continuous issuance of dollars devalues them, while the limited supply of Bitcoin makes it immune to the inflationary risks associated with traditional currencies. Bitcoin, in his view, represents a form of money free from government control.
Experts' Economic Forecasts
Michael Saylor, president of MicroStrategy and a leading Bitcoin advocate, also criticizes U.S. economic policies, noting the long-term decline in the dollar's purchasing power. Saylor states that using Bitcoin as the main reserve asset protects against inflation and avoids losses in national currency value.
Experts agree that U.S. economic policies may lead to serious consequences for the country's stability. In this regard, Bitcoin is seen by them as a reliable means of protecting capital.
