Summary
Darius Dale, founder of 42 Macro, looks at how Treasury yields, the bond market and liquidity affect the macro environment for BTC. He says higher rates have not yet hit the economy because of the AI capex boom. He discusses default via debasement and a Fed–Treasury Accord 2.0. He presents five paths out of the debt problem and says only three are acceptable. On risk management and asset allocation, he explains why he does not hold bonds. He frames BTC as a different exposure from stocks and gold and discusses its role in portfolio construction. He also addresses where bond yields reach fair value. His BTC outlook focuses on near-term chop linked to a decline in funding liquidity. He places the 2027 liquidity case at the center of the longer-term picture and refers to a 12 to 18 month horizon for BTC. He ties the "wealth pump" to money in politics. He calls AI too big to fail and describes what an AI bust would look like. The macro backdrop also includes a K-shaped economy, rate hikes, the debasement trade, David Zervos and Scott Bessent.
