I asked myself and was a little curious about the economy and Bitcoin, as far as I know, every new ATH the price of Bitcoin continues to increase, maybe this is because the world economy is improving, maybe.

Question...?
What if the world economy is very bad globally, so can what OP says below continue?

Prepare to experience a big surge for Bitcoin like it was 2015 - 2017 Cool

It's not that I'm not sure, but looking at the current economic conditions, on average almost all over the world is bad, could this phenomenon possibly happen to Bitcoin, otherwise.


Actually, the economic conditions "going bad" could also be seen as = economic conditions "cooling down". Because after more than 10 years of low interest rates, Q.E., and easy credit, the economy for many regions around the world were surging. But that's not sustainable. We're paying for the negative effects of easy credit.

Plus currently unemployment data and statistics are still low, but I believe because of Q.T. and high interest rates, we'll see those numbers surge, AND THAT'S WHEN THE PIVOT HAPPENS = BRRRRR-MONEY-PRINTING. Wait for it. Cool

I sure hope so, that was my first bull run. I was like a deer in headlights, euphoric but also clueless. Gains akin to those times would be amazing. We have the right macro financial setup, let’s cross our fingers & see how it goes.

Right now most of the countries are facing double digit inflation and with crude oil prices moving upward and nearing hundred dollars per barrel, we can expect inflation to go up even further also after covid most of the countries printed huge numbers of bank notes without any limit this also increased the inflation. Given this scenario I don't think that deflation is possible anytime soon. Nowadays people have lot of cash and there is a scarcity of different commodities in order for deflation to happen it should be the opposite scenario- less cash in hand and over supply of commodities.

Credit card defaults are surging faster than 2007 - 2008, during the last Financial Crisis.



The current economic situation might be worse than expected. Because of people can't pay for their credit card bills, that probably means they are out of savings, and if they're out of savings, then if they are  out of savings and can't pay their credit card bills, then there will be = Low Demand, which will also mean low earnings for businesses. Low earnings for businesses = Employee Lay-off = Recession.

The world will talk about inflation, and China will talk about deflation. China is on the brink of deflation; the prices of goods and assets decrease across the economy and increase the value of money. The causes are less demand, high supply, a higher propensity to save, etc. If the deflation is longer, the effects are law growth, unemployment, recession, reduced wages and layoffs, reduced consumer spending, etc. Then the government is the one who should take initiative in matters like making loans cheaper, tax deductions, subsidies, boosting demand, etc. Inflation, or deflation, is a natural process that can be easily overcome with small cracks when the government takes action at the right time.

Let me partially disagree. In my opinion, in this example you are confusing cause and effect. It is unemployment, a decrease in industrial production, mass layoffs, as well as a slowdown and in some places a “freezing” of production - they are what give rise to a recession, but not vice versa. For example, take the “colossus with feet of clay” - Evergrande. Its bankruptcy or “stopping” will lead to truly dire consequences for the Chinese economy. In addition to laying off a lot of people in the Evergrande company itself, many hundreds of companies that provided its business will also be on the verge of bankruptcy! And this is probably more than one million, and maybe even more than tens of millions of workers who will be left without a livelihood. At the same time, I’m not sure that the Chinese government will start printing money to “support” these people, their families and those they provided for (parents, grandmothers, etc.) on social benefits.

You're absolutely right, but deflation through recession is precisely what the economies around the world need to control inflation. Because if the Federal Reserve, European Central Bank and other Central Banks around the world won't cause a recession themselves through QT/tightening of the money supply, then inflation will do it for them.

I disagree, it seems to me that deflation and recession are not mutually corrective processes. And what is important - recession, in my opinion, is not able to correct inflation.

Let me explain my position: Recession is a phase of the economic cycle when the economy falls and slows down. A recession is talked about when GDP declines for two quarters. That is, this process leads to a decrease in the circulation of money, but also reduces income and tax revenues to the budget. And this usually leads to the fact that the state will have to borrow money somewhere, because tax revenues are decreasing (state revenues), but mandatory state expenditures are not decreasing.

Therefore, the state either credits or "prints money", which can hardly be called deflation. If I am mistaken - please correct me ?


You're not wrong, but you're talking about something else. When the Federal Reserve and other Central Banks around the world start turning on the money printer and start the pivot to Quantitative Easing, then the situation has changed from that of being deflationary to inflationary. That's not a deflationary period anymore.

A deflationary period/tightening of the money supply, which causes a recession, and therefore curbs inflation, is still needed for the Central Banks to be given room to print money again, but hopefully more responsibly. In the current state of the monetary situation, the Federal Reserve have its hands tied. They can't print more money because risk of reinflation is still high. Core CPI needs to go down under 2%.

Thanks for the clarification, it does seem like we were talking about slightly different entities and processes.
In any case, we will watch the development of the situation, as today there is a high probability of the impact of the conflict in the Middle East, which may lead to a significant increase in oil, which will entail many not very "popular decisions" to support the economies of developed countries. And money printing will be one of the ways to keep the economy "afloat"


Plus Canada. I don't actually know what's the monetary situation in Canada, or if they're also tightening like many of the rest of the other regions, BUT there's some economic data that says that they are going into a recession. I can only presume that's because they're also having their own deflationory cycle because there's no other way unless inflation did it for them, which is obviously more dangerous.

Fed printing of Money brought about two things, 1. price inflation, which is an increase in the price of goods and commodities, and 2. money inflation, which is printing 20% more in circulation just in one year. If at all we are close to a point where we are about to experience deflation, where FED may think of starting a quantitative easing QE, I don't see that of price inflation get solved any time soon.
Here in my country, the price of goods and services is skyrocketing and there's no sign of when it's going to be over.

Inflation is due to the falls in the goods we need and when the users are more there is inflation and users will also not make things change, because the government would take care of it, as you talked about the fed printing as this is due to the people of a  country which are living inside the country and that is not due to the government or due to any other supporting the countries but only due to the persons inside that country. So, to get rid of inflation these things should also be stopped as due to media the things prices usually going up as they are seeing one thing and they are explaining another side of it. So, all these things usually affect the inflation rate in any country which would be better for the government to take care of on time.

I would welcome deflation because of the reasons of inflation that I have witnessed and I think that it would be a good time to accumulate BTC because the prices of daily living would have been reduced, thus enabling more funds to be channeled to other areas.

Currently, the interest rates are higher than normal and I believe the prices of commodities would reduce but interest rates may linger for a duration because once prices go up, it's always hard for it to come down.


I have been around a long time. You see some deflation in electronics and tech. but most everything else just goes up and 🆙.


But those products are relatively still expensive, no? A good, brand new smart phone still can't be afforded by most plebs if they don't have a credit card or any kind of access to credit.

Everyone dislikes inflation... It's hard to argue. But deflation is the "other side of the coin", and noticeable deflation is not a gift either. It's from the realm of "everything seems fine, but it's getting worse and worse every day" Smiley

"Deflation is a steady decline in the prices of goods and services in an economy over a period of time.
As demand falls, companies are forced to reduce production and lower prices. Fewer employees are needed to produce less goods, and companies start laying off staff, which leads to higher unemployment. Increased unemployment causes demand to fall because people have less money."

In this situation, I would favor low inflation, so stimulate the economy and invest the "skinny money"

We dislike inflation at all cost because it makes people get incapable of affording a living expenses when there's no increase in their income flow and every other things are increasing in price, it such continues then it may lead to an increase in the poverty poverty level and life may be unfavourable to many individuals and households, now over to deflation, are we really seing this coming or we are just perplexed about it.

We can expect that our profit-making cycle is on the way, although not as much as before, but no one has any idea of the price level that Bitcoin will reach in the future. But I think it will be much higher than before but I don't know how much it will be, I can only guess that the highest price will be.

Wouldn't mind seeing some deflation in London.  If you go to see a band or show there, most of the bars are charging £12.00 (roughly $14.50 USD) or more for a single spirit+mixer.  That's -one- drink.  Daylight robbery.

Also, most of them are "cashless", which is frustrating.  Still don't know how that's legal.
