At Bitcoin 2025, Lyn Alden highlighted the unsustainable state of the U.S. fiscal system, emphasizing that the burgeoning fiscal deficit amidst low unemployment signals a new economic era. She illustrated how public debt has outstripped private sector debt since 2008, indicating persistent inflation. Alden argued that despite challenges, Bitcoin's scarcity and decentralized nature position it as a resilient asset compared to traditional monetary systems, echoing concerns about the government's inability to manage fiscal policies without exacerbating the deficit.
"Nothing stops this train because there are no brakes attached to it anymore. The brakes are heavily impaired."
"This is inflationary, persistent, and it means the Fed can't slow things down anymore."
