Fed Has Turned Bond Market Into a Ponzi Scheme, Dan Morehead Says

Bond markets are ponzi schemes where investors will be left holding the bag once the lights come one, according to Dan Morehead, CEO of Pantera Capital. 

Investors instead should invest in digital assets in order to avoid \”bubbles\” that are created by the Federal Reserve\’s economic policies. 

Bond investors \”are going to get absolutely destroyed when the Fed stops manipulating the bond market,\” Morehead said Tuesday, according to Bloomberg. 

Instead of focusing all of their regulatory energy on cryptocurrencies like bitcoin, governments around the world should look at systemic issues that are causing economic volatility.

“Governments should stop obsessing about bitcoin and look inward. The biggest Ponzi scheme in history is the U.S. government and mortgage bond market – 33 trillion-with-a-T dollars – all being driven by one non-economic actor with a dominant position who is trading based on material, non-public information,\” Morehead said.

“The bitcoin market is way too big to be manipulated,” he said. “Bitcoin trades on hundreds of exchanges in dozens of countries. Bitcoin’s daily volume is 1,000x as much as GameStop, which trades on just one market in just one country.”
