When precious metals lead the way, Bitcoin is actually already half a step ahead. This is not just market volatility; the underlying logic points to the $38 trillion U.S. debt problem.

A topic that is becoming increasingly difficult to discuss in mainstream media, but from a logical chain perspective, it is actually becoming more and more solid—

The true debt outlet for the United States may not be in Congress’s voting chamber at all, but hidden in the revaluation of asset prices.

When the debt scale surpasses a certain critical point, fiscal rhetoric begins to falter. Policy statements become hollow and powerless. The only thing that can truly make a difference is one thing: price.

Earlier this year, Trump put forward a view: "Cryptocurrency can help the U.S. solve its $37 trillion debt problem." At the time, people in the circle thought he was just riding the wave. Looking back today, although his statement was not entirely complete, its absurdity is not that high.

**1. To clarify: the U.S. never really needs to "pay off" its debt**

Looking back at history, no superpower has ever completed a debt cycle by genuinely paying off its debt. In reality, only three situations have occurred:

- Inflation and time eat away at the debt
- Currency depreciates actively or passively
- Assets are revalued

These three paths have one thing in common—they all bypass congressional voting.

**2. Why does the path of Bitcoin seem like a bluff?**

If the U.S. really wants to solve the problem directly with BTC: Bitcoin would need to rise to the million-dollar level. By then, the market value of BTC held by the U.S. government would, mathematically, be close to the scale of U.S. debt. But this route is too radical, too conspicuous, and too easy to lose control. True old-world empires have always used more covert methods.
