Strike CEO Jack Mallers: Inflation Outlook, Bond Stress and BTC vs Gold

US debt-to-GDP has pushed past 120%, and Jack Mallers thinks the debate over whether the Fed hikes or cuts is beside the point, both roads lead to inflation. The Strike founder and CEO joins Bitcoin Magazine to explain why he told investors to study Japan, where outright yield curve control and central planning intervention are now required to hold the currency together. He argues the US is heading to the same place and that Bitcoin, as the asset most sensitive to fiat liquidity, is the fastest horse in that environment. Mallers also breaks down Strike’s shift into Bitcoin-backed lending and what it means to build a full Bitcoin financial stack under one roof.

Connor Brown, Executive Director of the Bitcoin Policy Institute and a former Senate staffer, breaks down why 7 to 9 Democrats have to cross the aisle and what happens to digital asset regulation if they don’t. He walks through Senator Cynthia Lummis’ updated draft, the roughly 120 concessions inside it, and the ethics provision compromise that got about 80% of the way there. Brown also explains why BPI has expanded its remit into open source AI and what that means for Bitcoin security.
