▫️ Trump’s Strategy
- Trump is using the DOGE, led by Elon Musk, to cut federal spending.
▫️Trump plans to establish a strategic reserve backed by Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.
▫️ Monetary expansion of $2.74 - $3.24 trillion
- Worst-case scenario BTC price: $70,000
- Potential Bitcoin surge to $1 million with sufficient liquidity injections
- Current crypto market downturn is temporary
▫️ Bitcoin is flashing warning signs of an imminent liquidity crisis.
▫️ Bitcoin should be the first asset to recover once liquidity injections begin.
