Bitcoin: People Will Lose A Lot Of Money

I do not think it is going to end up being a source of commerce for the world. I think right now it is a source of gambling and I think people will lose a lot of money. But again, I don`t know where the top is. I never know where the top is but I think I got a pretty good vision when it comes to seeing bubbles and I certainly see one in bitcoins.

Yellen, Dollar Crisis & The End Of This Madness

She actually believes the Federal Reserve can create prosperity, can create jobs and economic growth by creating inflation, by printing more money and that is what she is going to do.

And because it`s not going to work, because it`s going to make the economy worse, not better, she is going to do more and more of it until ultimately there is a currency crisis and the dollar collapses bringing an end to the madness.

Yellen Will Compound The Mistakes

She has not learned from the mistakes at all. She is going to compound the mistakes. She is going to take the QE program and expand it.

Yellen: A Blind Leading The Blind

I think its going to be case of a blind leading the blind once she is confirmed as the next Fed Chairman, our Chairwoman.

I would like to see the truth come out of these confirmation hearings to discuss how completely clueless Janet Yellen was during the housing bubble. Because, the left has tried to redefine her and rewrite history and cast her as some kind of Nostradamus who was warning about the housing bubble and the financial crisis, she was just Cassandra there at the Fed and nobody listened to her. This is all nonsense. She was just as blind as everyone else. In fact she was dismissing the warnings about the housing bubble, that people like me were actually making at the time.

Bitcoins Are No Alternative To Gold

You can play the game if you want but I don`t see bitcoins as an alternative to gold. It is not a modern day gold standard. If anything, they are modern day alchimists. But you cannot make gold digitally. It`s no better than a fiat currency.

Bitcoins: A Modern Day Tulip Mania

To me it looks like a modern day tulip mania, the fact that there are people in the hard money community that have embraced bitcoin.

A bubble is a bubble. The dotcom or the real estate bubble, there is a bubble in bitcoin. I think the reason people are buying bitcoins is because the think they are going to make money. They think the price is going to go up. It will keep going up until it implodes. And a lot of people are going to lose a lot of money in bitcoins. A small amount of people will make a lot of money but it will be paid for by a much greater amount of people who lose because they come at the end of the pyramid scheme. Wether we are at the end now, or wether it is going to keep going higher for months or years, I do not know.
