ALARM SOUNDED 🚨

BREAKING: Ray Dalio says soaring US debt threatens dollar, fueling demand for crypto and gold as alternatives

btc

The man who nailed the 2008 financial crisis is back with another warning.

Ray Dalio says the U.S. is barreling toward a “debt-fueled heart attack” - and it’s pushing capital straight into Bitcoin.

"The dollar and the other reserve currency governments' bad debt situations are threatening to their appeals as reserve currencies and storeholds of wealth, which is what has been contributing to the rises in gold and cryptocurrency prices."

Ray Dalio

And the numbers back him up.

U.S. debt is ballooning, interest costs are soaring, and the Fed is being forced into an impossible choice:

Raise rates and risk a default crisis, or print money to paper over the problem and destroy purchasing power.

Either way, confidence in fiat takes a hit.

Dalio calls this the “traumatic last phase” of the debt cycle - the same script we saw in the 1930s and 1970s.

But there’s one key difference this time: crypto exists.

“Crypto is now an alternative currency that has its supply limited, so, all things being equal, if the supply of dollar money rises and/or the demand for it falls, that would likely make crypto an attractive alternative currency.”

Ray Dalio

He’s not just talking theory.

Dalio recommends allocating 15% of a portfolio to gold or Bitcoin as protection - and admits he owns BTC himself.

The takeaway?

If one of the world’s most respected macro investors thinks the dollar’s reserve status is cracking, Bitcoin isn’t just speculation - it’s insurance.

This isn’t hype.

This is a heavyweight calling the next move. And if Dalio’s track record is anything to go by… you’ll want to listen.

Crypto Nutshell Pro is now open!

Secure your spot here:

Nutshell Pro

Earlier this year, here’s what we said:

This is the best time in history to buy… not based on hype, but on risk-adjusted reward.”

Crypto Nutshell April 4th

Since then:

  • Bitcoin went up +49.77%

  • Ethereum went up a whopping +172.89%

We then called the massive Ethereum outperformance:

“First Bitcoin runs. Then ETH… ETH/BTC is sitting at historic range lows… you’ve got the strongest setup we’ve ever seen for Ethereum.

Crypto Nutshell July 11th

And again:

“Most won’t see it until ETH breaks out. But by then? The easy gains will be gone. Ethereum is the key.

Crypto Nutshell July 12th

Since then:

  • Ethereum outperformed Bitcoin by a whopping +73.07%

Earlier this year, we opened the Crypto Nutshell Portfolio doors to it’s first 100 members. Every spot was filled.

THE $84 TRILLION WEALTH TSUNAMI 🌊

Crypto isn’t just a speculative asset anymore - it’s on the brink of a generational wealth shift.

Forbes just spotlighted the coming $84 trillion transfer of wealth as U.S. Baby Boomers pass down their fortunes by 2045.

That’s more than half of all U.S. wealth moving to a new generation.

It’s the single largest transfer of wealth in all of history.

btc

Here’s the kicker: younger generations are 3x more likely to own Bitcoin and crypto compared to their parents.

Which means a massive slice of that $84 trillion is heading straight into crypto.

This is why Wall Street is already positioning.
 
It’s why Sovereigns, pensions, and insurers are entering the crypto game. Not to mention the U.S. government starting to build a strategic Bitcoin reserve.

Combine those forces with trillions in generational wealth shifting hands… and you get a perfect storm of demand colliding with fixed supply.

This is how new crypto dynasties are born.

Just like the Rockefellers built oil empires and the Rothschilds dominated banking, the families who stack Bitcoin & crypto today will write the financial story of tomorrow.

The dynasties of the 21st century won’t be built on land, oil, or banks.

They’ll be built on Bitcoin & crypto.

The money is coming. The question is: are you ready to ride the wave? 🌊

BALANCES DRAINING 📉

Today we’ll be checking in on the amount of Ethereum available for sale on exchanges.

Here’s how to interpret this metric:

  • Decreasing exchange balances: Bullish indicator as it signals a shift towards long-term holding 🐂

  • Increasing exchange balances: Bearish indicator as coins being transferred to exchanges are more likely to be sold 🐻

onchain

Only 15.81M ETH remains on exchanges - just 13.05% of total supply.

In the last 90 days alone, 2.43M ETH (worth nearly $11B) has been pulled off.

Read that again…

The last time balances were this depleted, ETH went from $30 to $1,500. 🤯

This is how supply shocks start.

ETH is draining off exchanges. Institutions are hoarding. Demand is climbing.

And when vanishing supply collides with rising demand…

There’s only one outcome: liftoff. 🚀
