RAY DALIO WARNS OF A RAPID COLLAPSE OF THE OLD MONETARY SYSTEM.
I remind you, friends, American billionaire Ray Dalio (net worth $15.4 billion) — one of the largest macro investors in the world, founder of the investment company 'Bridgewater Associates', author of the book 'Principles for Dealing with the Changing World Order' recently stated: 'We are nearing the end of the current monetary system based on debt and money printing.'
The facts from him are as follows:
• 2024–2026 - world central banks are buying gold at record levels;
• US debt has exceeded $36 trillion;
• printing money has become a permanent mechanism for supporting the system;
• trust in fiat currencies is sharply declining.
The next stage is Bitcoin, because:
• BTC = digital scarce asset;
• 21 million coins cannot be printed;
• works without banks;
• stored without intermediaries;
• already recognized as an institutional reserve.
That is, if we adhere to Dalio's logic, the global financial system is entering a phase of collapse. Inflation, debt pits, loss of trust in fiat currencies are all coming true, as Ray Dalio predicted. The old debt system is losing stability. Gold captures fear. Bitcoin captures a new order. The transition is already underway.
So, is the dollar collapsing? No, there is another expert point of view on this, which I personally adhere to. Let's think about it, friends. But I will note right away: Donald Trump, in my opinion, is not only not losing control, but he is also orchestrating this process.
Judge for yourself. For example, here’s why a weak dollar is beneficial for the United States:
1. US exports become cheaper for the whole world.
2. Foreign buyers are massively buying American goods.
3. Production is returning to America (competitive prices).
4. The debt of $36 trillion is depreciating.
5. The competitive advantage of China and the EU is being destroyed.
It is quite obvious that under such circumstances President Donald Trump will not lose, as a strong dollar = the US buys cheap foreign goods, a weak dollar = the world buys American goods.
However, it is impossible not to agree with Dalio on a number of positions. In particular, that most still do not understand that the old models of accumulation no longer work. The world is entering a new era - digital assets, decentralized finance, blockchain.
So, those who do not manage to adapt will be left by the broken trough. Those who do manage will build a new future.
