Below is a summary of the two fundamental factors at play in this prediction:
1. An economic depression is about to begin.
There is a very high probability that the global economy is about to enter a depression as severe as the Great Depression of 1929. Evidence for this is as follows:
- The Dow Jones, Netflix, Amazon and the German Stock Index have completed the first 4 phases of a hyperwave, and all have broken the fourth phase trend line. This is an extremely rare formation that occurs during bubbles, and provides an almost certain forecast of a complete correction to the level before the wave began. This means a 95% loss over the next decade.
- This waveform occurred during the roaring 20s and the great depression, which was a direct result of the long term debt cycle. The long term debt cycle lasts for 75-100 years, it has been 90 years since the great depression.
- When the market data from the Dow Jones during the roaring 20s and great depression is plotted over the Dow Jones during the current hyperwave, it predicts the correction to complete by 2030. This would be 45 years from trough to trough, which is one Kondratiev cycle.
2. Bitcoin will act as the global hedge against all fiat currencies in an event known as a "Flight to Safety" - resulting in an inverse correlation between the collapsing economy and the bitcoin boom.
- The depression will cause a currency crisis due to the loss of confidence in the economy and the banking system. As the strength of the global reserve currency (USD) falls, the US government will be unable to pay its $21 Trillion debt, and will be forced to print money in an attempt to prevent sovereign default. This will exacerbate the problem by increasing inflation, leading to hyperinflation and demonetisation. This will redefine all fiat currencies from a secure asset, to a risk asset.
- Simultaneously, Bitcoin will be redefined from a risk asset to a secure asset. This is because bitcoin is a limited supply currency which cannot be inflated, it is not controlled by the failing banking system or the government, and it is globally accessible by any individual.
- Gold and Silver are no longer in as high demand from industrial applications, and this demand will decrease as the economy contracts. They have traditionally acted as hedges in these situations, but will likely be outcompeted by the superior alternative - bitcoin.
