Lin Alden: Bitcoin to Rise to $150,000 Due to U.S. National Debt, 2026/05/02 13:20:29

Investment analyst Lyn Alden stated that Bitcoin could rise to $150,000 amid the increasing U.S. national debt, which has recently surpassed $39 trillion.

According to Alden, the global economy has entered the final phase of the debt cycle, characterized by a “quiet collapse,” evident in the decline of purchasing power. The analyst believes that the authorities of the world’s largest nations are compelled to support the economy through an expansion of the money supply. Consequently, inflation ceases to be a temporary phenomenon and becomes an integral part of the system’s operation.

“The system is not broken. It functions exactly as intended: it finances government debt while eroding the purchasing power of the working class. Bitcoin is the key to breaking this cycle,” Alden stated.

In the current system, Bitcoin holds a unique position, according to the expert. It is not merely a speculative asset but a “global liquidity barometer,” sensitive to changes in the money supply. As this supply expands, the first cryptocurrency can absorb excess liquidity—due to the limited quantity of BTC.

Furthermore, the market structure of Bitcoin is evolving. Alden estimates that the asset is gradually transitioning from high volatility to a more mature model, where sharp price fluctuations are replaced by extended periods of consolidation—similar to the behavior of technology stocks.

In the coming years, fiscal pressure is expected to persist, and central banks may once again resort to actively increasing the money supply, the analyst believes. Under such circumstances, Bitcoin is likely to exceed $150,000—an expected outcome rather than a speculative forecast, Alden declared.

Previously, Lyn Alden assured that the period of “maximum pain” in the Bitcoin market has already passed, and the first cryptocurrency is currently in an oversold condition.
