Happy Tuesday, Blockfolians
The Lede
If last year taught us anything, it’s that prominent investors can shift the narrative. Remember Paul Tudor Jones and his “Great Monetary Inflation” thesis? You know, the thesis that set the intellectual foundation for the institutional Bitcoin trade?
Well, this year, it looks like fellow hedgie legend Stan Druckenmiller is looking to set the tone. In an Op-Ed in the Wall Street Journal and via an appearance on CNBC, Druckenmiller called the Fed’s current economic policy the most radical and disconnected from underlying economic reality he’s seen. He argued that it’s sending us straight towards debt monetization and, within the next 15 years or so, the end of the US dollar as the world’s reserve currency.
So what does he think will replace it?
Not the Euro, nor the RMB. Nope, he thinks crypto has the best chance.
How about that?
