While the US dollar won’t give up its position as the world’s reserve currency any time soon, it’s definitely getting weaker compared to alternatives such as Bitcoin, wrote Brad Garlinghouse, the CEO of Ripple (XRP), on Twitter today.
“A year ago, many decried crypto as a scam, and now a majority of govts are looking seriously at blockchain. It addresses frictions (i.e. settlement, transparency, etc) that were assumed VERY hard to solve before. Crypto is up 80% while USD is down 3% YTD,” Garlinghouse noted.
Thread on this USD as the world’s reserve currency has been the backbone of global financial infra, and that position isn’t going to disappear in favor of gold/the yuan/crypto/any other asset any time soon. But is it weaker today? Yes. (1/3) https://t.co/Td04uJOEXs
— Brad Garlinghouse (@bgarlinghouse) August 3, 2020
As Decrypt reported, many financial experts are currently concerned that the US government’s unprecedented fiscal stimulus efforts in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic could lead to the devaluation of the US dollar—and potential subsequent strengthening of other stores of value, including cryptocurrencies.
Garlinghouse added that traditional monetary systems are usually as strong as people’s trust in them—and fiat currencies are increasingly losing it today.
“As [Fundstrat managing partner Tom Lee] said, it comes down to trust in the financial system at the end of the day,” wroteGarlinghouse, adding that “As global populations continue to lose confidence in fiat currencies (as we’re seeing with USD), they will choose to diversify. Our future global financial system will do the same.”
This weekend, Bitcoin shot up above $10,000 for the first time in seven weeks, breaking a psychological threshold and sending the cryptocurrency’s price back to pre-coronavirus levels. Unlike on previous occasions, though, the biggest cryptocurrency by market cap may not be leading the market, but following in others’ wake. That’s the verdict of some experts who spoke to Decrypt, who also claimed that Bitcoin’s surge wasn’t unexpected. “A lot of analysts have predicted a breakout for some time...
The very same sentiment was expressed by several financial experts in Bloomberg’s article that Garlinghouse cited. Its authors noted that while cryptocurrencies are notoriously volatile and prone to manipulation, the blockchain technology that underpins them already gained some very influential proponents.
“At the end of the day, trust is really getting broken in the traditional financial system—that’s the theme. The less trust you have in the dollar, the more you want alternatives,” Tom Lee, co-founder and head of research at Fundstrat Global Advisors, told Bloomberg. “More and more people are saying, ‘You know what? It’s not such a bad idea to be decentralized.’”
Zerebro creator Jeffy Yu, who supposedly committed suicide last weekend, has been found alive by a reporter at his mom and dad’s house. The 22-year-old dev was discovered Wednesday by the San Francisco Standard, which found him padding around in flip-flops. He was visibly shocked at being found. Yu claimed he had been “doxxed” and “harassed,” and lamented that his poor parents would now have to move house. “You can see the PTSD in my eyes, right?” he said, before telling the reporter to leave....
A slew of tech bros—including the richest man in the world, Elon Musk—have adopted Mog Coin’s crypto-famous branding, apparently leading the Ethereum and Base token to pump 51% on the week, per data from CoinGecko. Mog Coin (MOG) is a meme coin referencing the slang phrase “mogging” or “to mog,” a term that originated on controversial image board 4Chan in 2016, according to KnowYourMeme. Put simply, it means to dominate somebody or something, often via physical strength or good looks. However, t...
New York prosecutors tried and failed to solicit the Securities and Exchange Commission’s opinion on Ethereum to bolster their case against KuCoin in 2023, according to newly released SEC records acquired by Coinbase. The exchange is one of many private conversations unearthed by a Coinbase FOIA request, offering a glimpse at the behind-the-scenes politicking that has shaped U.S. authorities’ approach toward the crypto industry over the past few years. In an email dated June 2023, the New York A...
