He emphasizes how the extraordinary growth of Bitcoin is comparable to the stock market\u2019s spectacular rise in 1929, immediately before the catastrophic crash.

He notes that <em>\u201cthe high-interest rate environment reminds him of the conditions that led to the collapse of the stock market in 1930.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>He shows this idea with a graph showing how the US discount rate peaked in 1929, the same year that the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) experienced a turning point. The interest rate charged to banks on loans obtained from the Federal Reserve is represented by the US discount rate. This historical information issues a strong caution.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Bitcoin as a Leading Indicator<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>McGlone compares the function of Bitcoin now to the warnings given by statistician and businessman Roger Babson before to the 1929 stock market disaster. Long before noted economist Irving Fisher famously declared a \u201cpermanently high plateau\u201d in 1929, Babson had expressed worries about inflated equities prices. McGlone thinks that, like Babson\u2019s warnings did back then, Bitcoin, one of the best-performing assets in history, acts as a leading indication.<\/p>\n<div class=\"main-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-items box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"box-100 space-org-3-item relative border-tb mt-1 \">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms-ins box-100 text-center relative\"> <strong>350% or 5BTC + <strong>150 Spins!<\/strong><\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>New players only.

At that time, the world was being transformed by inventions like electricity, vehicles, air travel, and telephones. The exponential growth of transformational technology and the rise of bitcoin are related.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Fed\u2019s Role<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Federal Reserve\u2019s position is one significant point McGlone emphasizes. The Federal Reserve kept interest rates low in the 1920s despite the emergence of novel technology and a frenzied stock market. In contrast, the Federal Reserve is boosting interest rates in the current economy. This difference could have a big effect on the result.<\/p>\n<p>McGlone\u2019s words of warning serve as a reminder of the dangers that might arise from Bitcoin\u2019s rapid ascent, but only time will tell if the cryptocurrency industry is actually experiencing a bubble similar to the 1929 stock market boom.<\/p>\n<p>According to CoinMarketCap data, Bitcoin is currently trading at USD 25,988.80.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/crypto\/bloomberg-analyzes-bitcoins-striking-resemblance-to-the-1930-stock-market-crash\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : Crypto News &#8211; iGaming.org ) Mike McGlone, senior macro strategist at Bloomberg Intelligence, presents a warning as Bitcoin\u2019s stratospheric rise continues to enthrall investors worldwide.
