TD₿: What Drives Bitcoin's Next Price Surge? - (a Swan Signal Live segment) with Lyn Alden
TL;DR: If liquidity unlocks, Bitcoin could rip. With potential Fed interventions, trade war shocks, and the U.S. government openly signaling Bitcoin acquisitions. The stage is set for something big.
Hey Bitcoiners,
In a recent Swan Signal Live interview with Lyn Alden, we discuss the potential for substantial Bitcoin price upside if there is a major liquidity unlock—such as U.S. bond market instability triggering Federal Reserve interventions like yield curve control, quantitative easing, or Treasury market operations.
While large-scale COVID-era stimulus is unlikely, smaller targeted liquidity programs could once again plug financial system vulnerabilities, indirectly boosting Bitcoin and other risk assets. Overall, the consensus is that liquidity injections—whether from monetary policy adjustments, fiscal maneuvers, or strategic asset purchases—are critical catalysts for Bitcoin’s next major upward move.
