Welcome to the US Crypto News Morning Briefing—your daily dose of the most pressing developments in crypto.

Grab a fresh cup of coffee as we discuss the implications of growing stablecoin adoption on Bitcoin (BTC) price, a topic that Bitcoin pioneer Max Keiser has been weighing in on. While the proliferation of these dollar-pegged tokens underscores broader crypto adoption, not all is as it seems, according to Keiser.

Crypto News of the Day: Stablecoins Could Send Bitcoin Price Over $200K, Max Keiser

Crypto markets continue to witness growing institutional adoption, with inflows into digital asset investment products surging to $2 billion last week.

The Trump family’s World Liberty Financial (WLFI) is making headlines on the stablecoin front. Its USD1 stablecoin recently surpassed the $2 billion market capitalization threshold.

In the same tone, Tether is reportedly considering another dollar-pegged stablecoin despite being the issuer of USDT, the largest stablecoin by market cap metrics.

Amid surging adoption, the US Treasury forecasts a $2 trillion market cap for the stablecoin sector by 2028.

“Evolving market dynamics, structures, and incentives have the potential to accelerate stablecoins’ trajectory to reach ~$2 trillion in market cap by 2028,” the report read.

In a recent US Crypto News publication, Bitcoin pioneer Max Keiser warned that stablecoins could “work the US dollar to death” and potentially exacerbate US debt levels. In a follow-up commentary, the Bitcoin pioneer voiced additional concerns.

According to Keiser, institutional adoption and regulatory legitimization of US dollar-pegged stablecoins artificially inflate demand for the dollar. He also notes that this diverts attention from Bitcoin, especially as its price remains below the $100,000 mark.

Keiser argues that this shift benefits stablecoin issuers, leveraging interest from their Treasury holdings to accumulate Bitcoin at lower prices.

However, Keiser warns that such dynamics could undermine initiatives like the proposed US Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, which aims to bolster national holdings of the pioneer crypto.

“The stablecoin issuers are the last bastion of dollar demand globally as de-dollarization threatens to decapitalize the US economy,” Keiser said in an interview with BeInCrypto.

According to the Bitcoin maxi, stablecoin issuers use interest from the treasuries they buy to buy cheap Bitcoin under $100,000 to distract Trump from buying BTC for the strategic reserve.

US Dollar Value To Diminish Relative To Bitcoin

In his opinion, when Bitcoin crosses the $200,000 threshold, panic buying will surge among individuals and governments previously misled by stablecoin issuers.

“As Bitcoin crosses $200,000 panic buying by people and governments who’ve been hoodwinked by stablecoin issuers will accelerate,” Keiser added.

He further asserted that all fiat currencies, including the Yen and Euro, will eventually devalue to zero against the US dollar and its stablecoin counterparts. This will be before the dollar itself diminishes in value relative to Bitcoin.

“This is how Bitcoin tops $2,200,000 a coin this cycle,” Keiser concluded.

As BeInCrypto highlighted in an earlier US Crypto News publication, Max Keiser believes Bitcoin can achieve $2.2 million per coin. As reported, he cited institutional FOMO and competition between 21 Capital and MicroStrategy.
