LIES
DEBT
AND GRESHAM’S LAW

How $23 trillion became $40 trillion — and why good money disappears.

2020.
The national debt was $23 trillion.
Then came COVID.
“One day — it’s like a miracle — it will disappear.”
— Donald Trump, February 2020
It didn’t.
Print.
And print.
And print.
$27.7T

Nearly $5 trillion added. In one year.

The Fed said inflation was transitory.
“It’s probably a good time to retire that word.”
— Jerome Powell, November 2021
The word disappeared.
The inflation didn’t.
Nov 2024.
$36T

Up $13 trillion since 2020.

They were promised a different answer.
Tariffs would pay down the debt.
Bitcoiners heard another promise:
A Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.
Then came…
$TRUMP. $MELANIA.
And a stablecoin bill.
Bitcoiners asked for hard money.
Washington gave them tokenized fiat.
Faster. Global. Programmable.
But still…
Dollars.
Stablecoin issuers buy Treasury debt. Washington found new customers for its IOUs.
Trump’s crypto businesses: ~$1.4 billion.
The federal deficit: $1.8 trillion.
Crypto didn’t replace fiat.
It gave fiat better rails.
$39.8T

July 2026. $40 trillion is coming.

Twenty-three became forty.
In six years.
“Bitcoin has failed as money.”
“Nobody spends it.”
“Stablecoins won.”
Backward.

They’re looking at it backward.

People spend the money they want to lose.
They save the money they want to keep.
Stablecoins circulate.
Bitcoin accumulates.
That isn’t Bitcoin failing.
That is Bitcoin winning.
Venezuela.
They spent bolívars.
They saved dollars.
The dollar didn’t fail because people hoarded it.
It won.
We spend dollars.
We save Bitcoin.
Bitcoin is becoming our hard money.
The dollar is becoming our bolívar.
More debt.
More currency.
Less trust.
Bad money circulates.
Good money disappears.
Gresham’s Law.
Bitcoin hasn’t failed as money.
Bitcoin is winning.
We are the
new Venezuela.
