Balaji Bets the Dollar will Hyperinflate. NOT A DRILL!
Balaji Srinivasan is back on Bankless with alarming takes. According to Balaji, in the next 90 days, the Dollar will hyperinflate—and the Bitcoin price will skyrocket to $1 Million.
He’s backed up these claims with a million dollar bet. With these dire predictions and a track record of strong takes, we needed to hear him out.
Who should we bring on next to counter these claims?
