The US economy just fell off a cliff.
Q4 2025 GDP growth was initially reported at 2.8%. Then revised to 0.7%. Now revised again to 0.5%.
The previous quarter was 4.4%.
That's a 3.9 percentage point collapse in one revision cycle. Three separate downward revisions in a row. That doesn't happen in healthy economies.
And while the economy was falling, the government kept spending. Because that's what governments do.
We flagged stagflation in March. The data just confirmed it. The Fed faces the worst possible scenario: no growth, persistent inflation, and no clean monetary policy path. Rate hikes fight inflation but worsen stagnation. Rate cuts stimulate growth but worsen inflation. You cannot win.
The government's only exit is debasement. Quiet, permanent erosion of what your dollars are worth.
Bitcoin doesn't solve this. But it's outside the system that's creating the problem. Fixed supply. No central bank can print more when the budget pressure mounts.
That's not speculation. That's arithmetic.
