Debt Crisis & Bitcoin: Insights from Jesse Myers
The Debt Event Horizon & Bitcoin
Bitcoin, the world’s first decentralized cryptocurrency, has gained immense popularity in recent years. Its unique features, such as its decentralized nature and limited supply, have attracted both individuals and institutions to invest in this digital asset. In this article, we will explore the fascinating concept of the Debt Event Horizon and its potential impact on Bitcoin, with insights from Jesse Myers, a renowned cryptocurrency expert.
Before diving into the Debt Event Horizon and its relationship with Bitcoin, let’s understand the basic concepts of both.
What is the Debt Event Horizon?
The Debt Event Horizon refers to a critical point in time when the amount of global debt surpasses the ability to pay it off. At this stage, the accumulation of debt becomes unsustainable, leading to potential financial crises and economic downturns. With governments and individuals borrowing more money to finance their activities, the Debt Event Horizon poses a significant threat to the stability of the global economy.
In recent years, the world has witnessed an exponential increase in debt levels. Governments and central banks have been injecting trillions of dollars into the economy to stimulate growth, resulting in skyrocketing debt figures. The COVID-19 pandemic has further exacerbated this problem, with nations taking on massive debt to support healthcare systems and stimulate economic recovery.
How does Bitcoin relate to the Debt Event Horizon?
Bitcoin, unlike traditional fiat currencies, operates on a decentralized network known as the blockchain. It is not controlled by any government or central authority, making it immune to inflation and manipulation. This characteristic makes Bitcoin an attractive investment option during times of economic uncertainty, such as when the Debt Event Horizon looms.
Jesse Myers, a prominent authority on cryptocurrencies, highlights the potential role of Bitcoin in the face of the Debt Event Horizon. He believes that as the world inches closer to this event, individuals and institutions will seek alternative assets for wealth preservation and protection against inflation.
According to Myers, Bitcoin’s finite supply of 21 million coins makes it a scarce asset, similar to gold. Its decentralized nature ensures that no central authority can manipulate its value or influence its supply. As a result, Bitcoin has the potential to serve as a hedge against the traditional financial system’s instability.
Cryptocurrency Events to Watch During the Debt Event Horizon
As the global economy approaches the Debt Event Horizon, several cryptocurrency events may occur, with potential implications for Bitcoin and other digital assets:
1. Increased Institutional Adoption
As governments struggle with debt burdens, institutional investors may turn to Bitcoin as a safe-haven asset. This could lead to increased institutional adoption and significant price appreciation for Bitcoin.
2. Regulation and Legal Frameworks
The rise of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies has prompted discussions around regulation and legal frameworks. As the Debt Event Horizon approaches, governments may take a more proactive role in regulating the crypto market to ensure stability and protect their economies.
3. Innovation in Decentralized Finance (DeFi)
With traditional financial systems under stress, decentralized finance (DeFi) has gained traction. DeFi platforms leverage blockchain technology to provide financial services without intermediaries. As the Debt Event Horizon looms, we may witness further innovation and development in the DeFi space.
4. Increased Volatility
The uncertainty surrounding the Debt Event Horizon may result in increased market volatility, not only for Bitcoin but also for other cryptocurrencies. Investors should be prepared for price fluctuations and take appropriate risk management measures.
Conclusion
The Debt Event Horizon presents a significant challenge to the global economy, but it also opens up opportunities for alternative financial systems, such as Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. As governments and central banks struggle with mounting debt, individuals and institutions may turn to Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation and a store of value.
Jesse Myers emphasizes the importance of understanding the Debt Event Horizon and its potential impact on Bitcoin. By staying informed about cryptocurrency events and remaining vigilant during times of economic uncertainty, investors can navigate the shifting financial landscape and potentially capitalize on the opportunities presented by Bitcoin and other digital assets.

How can I make more profitable investment in crypto without incurring most losses?
We can escape the debt spiral, but it would require taxing the rich. Which will never happen because Congress is too corrupt and captured. Yellen admitted $7 Trillion a year is going uncollected from the rich. They are going to bleed the middle class until there are riots instead of taxing the wealthy.
Good work fellas
I wonder how long btc is going to stay under $35k… I'll guess here… till 2026.
Do you guys remember the predictions like it was already supposed to be over 100k by now?
Fiat is failing but btc isn't necessarily the majorities 1st choice of storing value.
Silver lining of not actually buying 80,000 BTC in 2021 and not driving price up is that I stacked more SATs than I would have if price was greater than $100,000 per BTC. Low Time Preference mindset wins again!
So it was FTXs fault btc isn't at $100k?
Algo-bump!
How many halving events has happened since 2020?
World war reset on the menu.
All long term debt cycles end the same way.
U.S. over last 30 days has added 566.7 BILLION to the national debt…financial end is near…WHY ?
United States took 205 years to hit first 1 TRILLION of national debt from July 4th 1776 to October 22nd 1981.
I have always hated the ubi idea. But if AI does what it looks like it is going to do we just might have to do it.
So a bitcoin in a wallet can be lost if sent to a bad address or if the keys are gone. So can a gold bar be lost in such a way forever??? Comparison please!!
Jesse is a great thinker.
They balance the debt by selling our citizenship and national lands.
The past isn't always a good indicator of what will happen next, we may still see a reversal and start up a bearish move or experience a further uptrend in price. I'll say we should prep for any scenario that happens to play out because to be frank the charts won’t guarantee what an asset is going to do. Rather than clutching to the idea of holding and waiting for a pump, why not start trading with a reliable scheme from a pro trader? I have made over 12.7 BTC already since April till now and still trading to accumulate more, not from buying the dip alone but implementing trades with signals and insights provided from a pro trader Francine Duguay.
Thank you SBF, my Bitcoin cost way to much. If I bought cheaper bitcoin, thanks again
His first interview with Preston when he went by Croesus is my favorite episode
Who gets your money when you buy Bitcoin ?
Don’t usually listen to Preston because he talks too much. Let the guest talk or don’t have guests
I think a good indicator of whether we passed the "event horizon" is when congress suddenly stops having these budget and government shutdown drama. When the elites become united, that's when you know things are bad.
US debt is now up to $1.2B an hour.
Stay humble – Stack sats
As a hardcore bitcoiner – I’m with these guys 100%. I will not stop buying after the halving even if the price runs massively. Bitcoin is Bitcoin – everything else is sub-optimal! Thanks for a great discussion guys!
thanks FTX for the cheap sats
Blackrock ETF may at some point offer liquidity on L2 and split the income with shareholders
such a good talk
I totaly disagree, the amount of money needed to pump bitcoin past $100k would require way too much. the fact there is more small holders means its less likley to pump. As price is easier to be manipulated higher when small pool ownes majroity of tokens, as they can synchronise manipulation. just like 60% of doge was held by 4 people and how much that pumped. its counter intuitive. like in highsight, how 4 addresses pumped bitcoin from 5k to 20k in 2018.
the fact ftx tried to supress btc price is an exchange/whalte related reason. exhanges and whales will always manipulate price for whatever reason. its just made aware, where as every other occasion the company didnt implode like ftx did. there is no coil, i think its par for the course
Electricity is NOT abundant all over the planet. Not sure which planet you mean, exactly….?
Preston!!!! my go to podcast. I headed to the chasing pack by a country mile.
Jesse on fire and Preston too, as always.
Talk to prof. John Vervaeke on questions of artificial intelligence.
Preston you’re too big of a channel not to have time stamps on your videos. Love what you’re doing!
PLEASE
The halving is priced in already??
Agree on bitcoin. Disagree on altcoins. But no surprises there.
One of the best interviews I have heard on the subject. Bravo!
Isn’t there country/government risk in have 3 institutions holding your keys. What if Uncle Sam subpoenaed all 3 institutions for your private keys?
Money isn't much good if there is no velocity and use.
I have a solid question sir…. If they have added so many trillions since the debt ceiling was lifted…. Why is it not visible on the M2 chart
