HYPERINFLATION

@balaji made a shocking bet that #bitcoin will go to $1M in 90 days. This is a bet that predicts US Dollar hyperinflation, a worldwide financial catastrophe.

Frankly, $1M per BTC sounds freaking crazy. But now we got your attention. #BitSignal

🧵 Image
1/ What is hyperinflation?

Hyperinflation is rapidly rising inflation, usually by >50% per month.

The price hike will be rapid, excessive, and out of control.

It is an extreme case of inflation. Image
2/ Rapid price hike in hyperinflation

We are already experiencing inflation. Now imagine an extremely-rapid version - hyperinflation.

If our money loses value rapidly, we will need more money to buy the same things.

Soon, people can't afford basic necessities. Image
3/ Hyperinflation happened before.

These are the worst cases of hyperinflation. Price literally DOUBLED every day. Image
4/ Why hyperinflation happens? Factors include:

a) Excessive money supply.

b) Political instability

c) Demand-pull inflation

Money printer go brrr
5/ The consequences of hyperinflation in US

DETRIMENTAL.

-US is the largest economy in the world.
-USD is the strongest fiat and world's dominant reserve currency.
-Economy collapse, social unrest, many will suffer.

I can't even imagine it or entertain this possibility. ImageImage
6/ The Federal Reserve and the US government should be able to prevent hyperinflation.

BUT

We should hope for the best, and prepare for the worst right? Image
7/ Bitcoin is the best insurance against financial catastrophe.

-Supply cap of max 21 million BTC
-Good store of value
-Borderless
-Decentralized (no 3rd party intermediaries)
-Freedom (no central bank/government control)

Consider getting yourself insured.
End of thread 🧵

a) $1M per BTC in 90 days? I can't imagine hyperinflation in the US.

b) We should prepare for the worst while we hope for the best.

c) #Bitcoin will be our best insurance against hyperinflation.

Get insured. That's my #BitSignal.
*It is @balajis

Today, Malaysia bids farewell to Tun Daim Zainuddin.

He passed away at 86.

Known for his role as the finance minister under Tun Mahathir, Tun Daim was celebrated and critiqued equally.

Here are 8 of the most controversies associated with Daim 🧵 Image
1/ Malaysia's Privatization Policy during the 1980s

Daim spearheaded Malaysia's shift toward privatization during the 1980s, transferring assets from the public sector to the private sector.

While modernizing certain sectors, this policy faced significant criticism for benefiting cronies.

The rapid privatization led to monopolies and a lack of competition in critical industries.Image
2/ His Insane Wealth

Daim began his career as a lawyer and later became an influential businessman.

He has accumulated insane wealth in his career.

His financial success led to criticism, given the lack of transparency around his assets.

“At that point, my liquid assets stood at over RM750 million. If I had put that amount into an S&P 500 index fund in 1984, the value today would be over RM42 billion."

WE NEED YOUR ATTENTION🚨

THIS IS CRUCIAL.

What is DNS?

How the government’s new move could impact our freedom of speech and lead us to a new era of Internet Censorship?

🧵Image
1/ What is DNS?

Domain Name System (DNS) is the internet’s phonebook.

It translates human-readable website names into IP addresses so our devices can load them.

Every time we visit a site, DNS servers do the work behind the scenes.Image
2/ What’s happening in Malaysia?

The Malaysian government, through MCMC, is mandating that all internet service providers (ISPs) use public DNS redirection by the END OF SEPTEMBER.Image

I have screened all cashback credit cards so you don't have to.

I found the best entry-level cashback card.

Even if we use it to pay for our monthly essentials only.

🧵 Image
1/ Why cash back credit card?

Apart from emergency cover and credit score building,

...cashback reward is the most reliable form of reward you can earn with a credit card.

Other rewards like miles and app points are scams. Easily devalued.

2/ Deciding on the best cashback credit cards:

I will look at:

a) Min income required
b) Min spending condition
c) Cashback rate and categories
d) Annual fee
e) Sign up bonus

Malaysia Pay Gap lost its popularity.

People went all out disclosing the salary to the public nowadays.

Self-disclose KWSP, and now salary.

What’s next? Body count?
Not surprised. I encountered those in real life, claiming 5-6 including Caucasians.
I just say don’t……

Wait, it is 0.

Fair enough.
