Crypto currencies and tokens will skyrocket in value over the next 1.5 decades at least. How can I be so confident that this will happen? There are several reasons but this article will discuss one of the main reasons.
Global debt is over $227 Trillion dollars. This number is literally too large for our brains to comprehend. It is rare that even our universe uses such large numbers. This debt figure is also 225% of the world's GDP (Gross Domestic Product). The world is borrowing more than 2.25 times what it can produce in a given year. Let me ask you this? How long can you or I spend 2.25 times more than we earn? Not long before we are shut down or thrown in jail for fraud. This economic model is not sustainable.
When Governments create such debt, inflation is not far behind. In fact, inflation is immediately behind debt. For one hundred years, the Western World Governments have been hiding inflation in real estate, stock and bond markets. These three markets have been the traditional means to disguise inflation. How else can you hide $ Trillions of debt dollars that have been created. Well, now there is a 4th market to hide inflation. You guessed it, Crypto currencies.
Trillions of global debt dollars will be funneled into the crypto market. This will cause crypto prices to skyrocket. This fact alone is the reason why Governments will not ban crypto's. They need a new avenue to hide or disguise inflation. Crypto's is a perfect 4th market to do this. This new Fin Tech industry can and will be the next .com or internet booming industry. The sheer design of crypto currencies would enable $ Trillions of dollars to flow into it and make the rise seem natural. Natural in the sense of the real estate and stock booms of late. Prices rise in real estate and stocks and no one seems to alarmed do they? In fact , people think this is normal and a good thing. (Amazon stock at $1817.00 and $300.00 Tesla stock prices when the companies have not turned a profit for its first 4 years. How did they stay afloat all those years? Hint, huge subsidies that you and I would never receive if we started a company)
The reason governments need a new 4th market, like crypto's, is because they can not afford inflation to show up in FOOD. Yes that is right, FOOD. When "they" can no longer hide inflation and it reaches food costs, look out. Civil unrest and revolution is next. Remember the "color" revolutions in the Middle East? The 'Arab Spring" in Tunisia, Algeria and Egypt was due to skyrocketing food prices. Food prices jumped over 30% in 2011 and the revolution went into full swing. In these types of civil unrest, it is the woman who spark the revolt. Yes, rising price inflation in food followed by energy costs usually does the trick. That is when people have had enough.
In conclusion, look for hyper inflation to be hidden in the 3 traditional markets followed by the "new" 4th market called crypto's. When these 4 markets can no longer do the trick, watch for sharp food and energy costs (example: high heating oil rates during harsh winters). When we see food prices skyrocket, get ready. Pick your favorite color because a revolution is coming in a neighborhood near you!
