U.S. national debt has officially crossed $40 TRILLION for the first time. The speed of the increase is the bigger story. The U.S. took roughly 192 years to accumulate its first $1T, while the latest $1T was added in just five months. That doesn’t automatically mean a financial crisis is imminent, but the acceleration highlights the growing scale of U.S. fiscal deficits and the amount of debt the government must continually finance. For markets, the long-term question is what happens if debt growth continues outpacing economic growth. Investors will increasingly watch inflation, Treasury yields, dollar liquidity and demand for alternative stores of value such as Bitcoin as the debt burden keeps expanding. #BTC Price Analysis# #Macro Insights# $BTC $ETH
