Last night I saw a number that really blew my mind: the U.S. national debt has officially surpassed $30 trillion. What does that mean? Just the interest payments alone cost $1.2 trillion a year. Some economists describe this as "sinking into quicksand"—the more you struggle, the deeper you sink.

Does this have anything to do with cryptocurrency? Absolutely. When debt piles up, the money printer has to run at full speed, and fiat purchasing power naturally declines. Why is Bitcoin called "digital gold"? Simply put, its total supply is capped at 21 million and can't be increased at someone's whim.

In the long run, the deeper the U.S. digs itself into debt, the more it benefits scarce assets like Bitcoin. More and more people will start thinking: I can't put all my wealth in the dollar, right? I need something that can withstand inflation.

But retail investors should stay calm:
Don't get carried away and go all in just because of this news. These macro factors move slowly, while short-term market trends are still driven by sentiment and liquidity.
Stick to the assets you believe in. Don't panic if prices drop, and don't get overconfident if they rise. Only invest spare money so you can sleep at night.
Don't stare at the K-line chart all day watching the price jump around. The debt crisis is a marathon, not a 100-meter dash. Only those who can endure will reap the long-term rewards.

In short: the more chaotic the outside world, the more you need to stay grounded. Opportunities are never lacking; what’s lacking is timing and patience. Let go of illusions, face market volatility head-on, and interpret signals with hard logic—that’s the real ticket to long-term profits.
