Pompliano reminds investors: Bitcoin's value test is approaching. Can cooling inflation support holding positions?
February 14 News, Bitcoin entrepreneur Anthony Pompliano recently stated that as inflation data recedes, Bitcoin investors face the challenge of reassessing their reasons for holding. Pompliano pointed out on Fox Business that the value of Bitcoin lies in its limited supply, and when governments increase money issuance, Bitcoin prices tend to rise. He believes that, like gold, Bitcoin is a preferred long-term investment asset, but during periods of weakening inflation, investors may need to consider their holdings more cautiously.
According to data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) in January decreased from 2.7% in December to 2.4%. Moody’s Chief Economist Mark Zandi warned that headline inflation data might be lower than actual experience, implying that market demand for inflation-hedging assets like Bitcoin could be affected in the short term. Pompliano stated that the macroeconomic environment will continue to influence Bitcoin price fluctuations, which he calls the “currency slingshot effect”—the short-term deflation masking the dollar’s devaluation trend, leading investors to pay more attention to Bitcoin’s value preservation function in the future.
