1. The United States’ debt ceiling is one step closer to being raised: Congress has passed a bill to suspend the debt ceiling until December 2022, allowing the government to continue borrowing money to fund its operations and pay its bills.
2. Larry Fink says trust in the U.S. dollar is being eroded: The CEO of BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, warns that the U.S. government’s handling of the debt ceiling and other fiscal issues is eroding confidence in the dollar as a global reserve currency.
3. This could be good news for Bitcoin: As trust in the dollar wanes, some investors may turn to alternative assets like Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation and currency devaluation.
Summary: While the U.S. government has taken a step towards resolving its debt ceiling crisis, concerns about the long-term stability of the dollar are growing. This could lead to increased interest in Bitcoin and other alternative assets as investors seek to protect their wealth from currency devaluation and inflation.
