‘Bitcoin is the exit door’ – Jack Mallers warns of USD fall

Jack Mallers cautioned that the Fed easing cycle will devalue USD savings. 
But it would boost BTC and gold’s value; hence, he urged switching to BTC.

Jack Mallers, CEO and founder of Bitcoin [BTC]-focused payment platform Strike, has urged investors with U.S. dollar savings to be cautious as the Fed easing cycle begins. 

According to the executive, the Fed liquidity injection, or money printing, will dilute USD-based savings, rendering them less valuable.

He said those saving in USD would be better off in BTC. 

“The Fed has begun cutting rates. What does that mean? Financial authorities have decided who is paying for their mistakes: those holding US dollars. Get out of dollars. #Bitcoin is the exit door for everyone.” 

Fed easing cycle to boost BTC

He added that the Fed’s money printing will eventually boost assets like BTC, but not USD savings. 

“Printing money, isn’t printing growth. In reality, it destroys those holding the currency. So, if you’re living off the USD value, your life will worsen over the next few years. It will only benefit those that can afford assets like Bitcoin.” 

Mallers noted that anyone should own BTC, even a fraction, since gold and BTC values will explode during the Fed easing cycle. 

The Strike executive is one of the major BTC bulls that have championed alternative savings to cushion from USD devaluation amid rising inflation. 

Galaxy Digital’s Mike Novogratz is another champion in the space and has sounded the alarm about unsustainable US debt and its impact on inflation.

Early in the year, Novogratz stated that if the U.S. doesn’t put its fiscal house in order, BTC and digital growth will continue.  

BlackRock recently echoed the same sentiment in a September report. The firm praised BTC as a ‘unique diversifier.’ Part of the asset manager’s report read

“Over the long term, bitcoin’s adoption trajectory is likely to be driven by the intensity of concerns over global monetary stability, geopolitical stability, U.S. fiscal sustainability, and U.S. political stability.” 

That being said, BTC has been behaving like a ‘risk-on’ asset, with high negative sensitivity to geopolitical tensions, unlike gold.

According to Presto Research, BTC was a blend of risk-on and risk-off properties, with ‘risk-on’ dominating in the near term.

The asset was valued at $60.5K at press time, down 6% in the past seven days of trading.
