“Everybody’s been worried about hyperinflation. But we didn’t get that after trillions of dollars of QE. That’s because the overriding pressure is deflationary.”
The consensus right now is that tariffs, war, and money printing are about to send inflation higher. Ansel Lindner thinks the real risk is the opposite.
In this episode, we get into the case for a deflationary bust, why the global credit system could shrink as trust between nations breaks down, what Iran accepting Bitcoin for passage through the Strait of Hormuz could mean for Bitcoin as neutral money, the oil surplus almost nobody is talking about, why Bitcoin may work as both an inflation and deflation hedge, whether Bitcoin could eventually back the dollar, and why China may be next to soften its stance on Bitcoin.
