The U.S. Treasury is doubling long-end debt buyback sizes starting September 9, while America carries more than $40 trillion in national debt and spends over $1 trillion annually servicing its debt.

Hey, it's Ryan Reynolds here for Mint Mobile. Now, I was looking for fun ways to tell you that Mint's offer of unlimited premium wireless for $15 a month is back. So I thought it would be fun if we made $15 bills, but it turns out that's very illegal.

So there goes my big idea for the commercial. Give it a try at mintmobile.com/switch.

Up from payment of $45 for three months, $90 for six months, or $180 for 12 month plan required, $15 per month equivalent, taxes and fees extra, initial plan term only, greater than 50 gigabytes may slow when network is busy.

You know.

America is more than $40 trillion in debt. And now the Treasury is making a move we've already watched send Bitcoin vertical. This isn't a prediction. We've already seen what happens. Today, I'm going to show you why the next move will be even bigger. Check it out. Two and a half million dollar Bitcoin and the US. Treasury just lit the fuse. Starting September 9th, long end Treasury buyback sizes at least double. And we already know what happened last time. Treasury expanded this program and Bitcoin ripped 23.5% in a single week, making it the largest weekly Bitcoin candle in history. Now, they're preparing to do it again, with the US government already spending more than a trillion dollars every year, just servicing the interest on its debt. The Treasury can call it liquidity. They call it market functioning. I call it another reminder of exactly why Bitcoin exists. Because when the world's largest debtor starts buying back its own debt, while you're holding an asset they can never print, you're holding the escape hatch. And the pressure underneath the system keeps getting worse. America's national debt has officially climbed beyond 40 trillion dollars. The government has to continuously refinance enormous amounts of debt while simultaneously funding deficits and paying interest on everything it already owns. That creates a brutal cycle. More debt, more interest, more refinancing, more pressure to keep the financial system liquid. And sitting outside that entire machine is Bitcoin. No central bank, no Treasury, no committee deciding how much Bitcoin gets created. The contrast becomes more obvious every year. Governments operate through expanding their balance sheets. Bitcoin operates through absolute scarcity. And every time the debt machine requires another intervention, Bitcoin's monetary policy remains completely untouched. That's why these Treasury buybacks matter far beyond just one month. The bigger story is the direction. The United States has reached the point where annual interest expense alone exceeds one trillion. That's money being spent just to service existing debt. And those obligations don't disappear, they actually compound. Meanwhile, global capital keeps discovering an asset sitting completely outside the sovereign debt system, Bitcoin. And the potential repricing from here is enormous. At $250,000 Bitcoin, the network would be worth roughly $5 trillion. At $500,000, roughly $10 trillion. And at $1 million, we're talking roughly $20 trillion. So what about $2.5 million?

Sounds insane. But look at what Bitcoin is competing against. Global real estate, more than $624 trillion. Global stocks, roughly $158 trillion. Global bonds, more than $143 trillion. Gold, more than $31 trillion. Combined, you're looking at more than $950 trillion in global assets. Bitcoin at $2.5 million would be worth roughly $50 trillion. That means Bitcoin doesn't need to replace everything. It doesn't even need to come close. It only needs a fraction of the world's capital to recognize what Bitcoiners already understand. You cannot debase $21 million. You cannot refinance $21 million. You cannot vote to increase $21 million. You cannot print more Bitcoin to service the debt. That's the core difference. One system requires perpetual expansion just to survive. The other has been running on the exact same monetary rules for 17 years. So when Treasury buybacks accelerate, when debt servicing crosses $1 trillion, and when liquidity becomes increasingly important to keep in the machine functioning, I know exactly which side I want to own. They own the debt. You own the escape hatch. And this game is only getting bigger. And now I want to show you the actual Treasury schedule behind all of this, because this isn't speculation. The dates are already on the calendar. Look at all these buybacks already scheduled through November. And starting September 9th, the long end sizes get even bigger. And again, last time this happened, we soared 23.5% in a single week. Another couple of god candles from here. We're right back at the six-figure Bitcoin price action. I can't wait. Also check this out. River published this. Bitcoin will overtake the British pound, which is at 214,000, the Japanese yen, 499,000, the Euro at 943,000, the US dollar at 1.2 million, and gold at 1.6 million. Hard money versus fiat. We all know fiat eventually returns to its original intrinsic value, zero, because it's just paper at the end of the day. And it's backed by absolutely nothing, whereas Bitcoin is the first of its kind. The first asset with a finite, limited supply. Unlike gold, which has relative scarcity, Bitcoin has true scarcity, and it's mathematically guaranteed to increase your purchasing power against the dollar and all fiat currencies. And right now, this is the bigger picture. Bitcoin is only 1% of the global money.
