Bitcoin Hits $73,000: The Hidden Money Printer Fueling All-Time Highs

In this episode, Nik examines the powerful forces pushing Bitcoin toward new highs, revealing how government spending sets off new money creation that flows directly into assets. Starting with a breakdown of Bitcoin’s recent breakout and technical setup, he then explores the global backdrop, including China’s $1 trillion stimulus and shifts in U.S. fiscal policy. Using a balance sheet approach, Nik illustrates how Treasury issuance, bank purchases, and government payments lead to new deposits and net worth expansion — a process fueling assets without Fed involvement. This analysis reveals why Bitcoin, as a finite asset, stands to benefit in a world of accelerating government-driven liquidity. The Bitcoin Layer is a bitcoin and global macroeconomic research firm.
