Biggest Economic Shift Since Nixon: Why You Should Consider Getting Out of Holding US Dollars Now
The world is watching as a seismic shift in U.S. monetary policy looms just 12-36 months away. Jack Mallers, the outspoken founder and CEO of Strike, isn’t mincing words: this could be the biggest economic shake-up since President Nixon unpegged the U.S. dollar from gold in 1971. And for regular folks like you and me, the stakes couldn’t be higher.
From Washington to Wall Street, whispers are growing louder about proposals that once seemed downright radical. One of the most eye-popping? Wyoming Senator Cynthia Lummis’s plan to transition part of America’s gold reserves into Bitcoin—1 million BTC over two decades, to be exact. That’s about 5% of Bitcoin’s total supply, folks. If this happens, it won’t just change monetary policy; it’ll rewrite the financial rulebook.
“If the Bitcoin Strategic Reserve is signed and put in place, I think this would be the biggest U.S. economic announcement since Nixon in ’71,” Mallers recently told Kitco News.
He’s got a point. Such a move would signal the end of America’s addiction to printing endless amounts of fiat money—a problem that’s been chewing away at the dollar’s value like rust on an old pickup. Instead, we’d be steering toward a finite, technologically advanced asset like Bitcoin, which Mallers calls “pro-business, pro-labor, pro-energy.”
But why now?
The U.S. is drowning in over $36 trillion of debt, and even Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has hinted that Bitcoin is stepping up as a real competitor to gold. Meanwhile, Bitcoin itself has been on a tear, up 132% this year alone, with a market cap soaring past $1.9 trillion. That’s more than some national currencies.
Mallers boils Bitcoin’s appeal down to a simple truth: supply and demand.
“If everyone wants more of something—like iPhones or cheeseburgers—suppliers just make more. But if everyone wants more Bitcoin, you can’t make any more,” he said. “That’s why it demands a higher price.”
It’s true. Bitcoin is capped at 21 million coins, and as demand skyrockets, prices could shoot into the stratosphere. Mallers predicts we’ll see Bitcoin trading between $250,000 and $1 million by 2025 if these proposed changes gain traction.
And let’s not ignore the global chess game playing out behind the scenes. Mallers speculates that other countries might already be stockpiling Bitcoin, hedging their bets against a future where the U.S. embraces the cryptocurrency as part of its reserves. If that happens, the U.S. dollar won’t just face competition—it’ll face an existential threat.
The timeline is tight, folks. Mallers thinks the U.S. might start buying Bitcoin as early as the first quarter of next year. If you think the markets have been volatile now, just wait. This is the kind of transformative shift that could upend not just the U.S. economy but the global financial order.
Editor’s Note
Jack Mallers warns of a potential monetary revolution as the U.S. considers adding Bitcoin to its strategic reserves—a move he calls the biggest shift since Nixon ended the gold standard. With U.S. debt ballooning past $36 trillion and Bitcoin’s value skyrocketing, this could signal a pivot away from fiat currency and toward a finite digital asset. Mallers predicts Bitcoin prices could soar as high as $1 million by 2025, making it critical for investors to prepare now.
