Bitcoin’s Next Waltz: A ‘Big Print’ Looms, Darling!

by

My dear, if there’s one thing more predictable than a Noël Coward quip, it’s the financial world’s penchant for printing money with the abandon of a debutante at a cocktail party. John Haar, the managing director at Swan Private (no, not the bird, the financial haven), has declared that the next “big print” is but a matter of time-a waltz we’ve all danced before, haven’t we?

The Monetary Minuet: A Recurring Farce

Haar, with the aplomb of a man who’s seen it all, insists that the COVID-era stimulus was not merely a blip but a full-throated aria in the opera of monetary policy. “Darling,” he might as well have said, “it’s not if, but when the next round of money creation will grace us with its presence.” And grace us it shall, driven by any number of calamities: war, banking stress, pension insolvency, or even the meddlesome hand of AI disrupting the labor market. How très moderne!

“Two big prints in most people’s adult lifetime,” Haar remarked, as if recounting a particularly scandalous affair. “COVID, my dear, was the most recent-a wake-up call for hundreds of clients who realized, ‘Good heavens, they can just print money!’” And print they did, with stimulus checks flying about like confetti at a society wedding.

Haar’s clients, it seems, have a “Bitcoin story”-a tale as common as a Coward protagonist’s witty retort. The pandemic, far from being a mere health crisis, became a catalyst for a new cohort of Bitcoin buyers. “They saw policy discretion up close,” Haar noted, “and drew their own conclusions. Rather astute, don’t you think?”

Referencing Lawrence Lappard’s The Big Print, Haar quipped that these bursts of money creation are not anomalies but “episodes the system revisits with some frequency.” How reassuring! Though he stopped short of predicting an immediate repeat-“Too premature, darling,” he said, waving away near-term alarmism-he’s convinced it’s only a matter of time.

And let’s not forget the psychological ballet at play. As the COVID shock fades into the rearview mirror, investors risk slipping into complacency. “Human nature, my dear,” Haar sighed. “People forget how utterly bonkers that monetary response was and return to their policy normalcy bias. How quaint!”

As for the triggers? Haar laid them out like a buffet at a society luncheon: geopolitical war, AI-driven labor displacement, state budget collapses, pension insolvency, regional bank crises, and even climate disasters. “One of these things or multiple of them will happen,” he declared, with the certainty of a man who’s seen the script before.

The next big print is coming (do bookmark this, darling).

Timeline: 3 to 24 months.

The triggers: AI job displacement, state budget collapses, pension insolvency, regional bank crises, geopolitical war.

“I believe that one of those things or multiple of those things will happen.”

“And lastly,” Haar added, with a flourish, “there’s always the specter of a major climate disaster or natural calamity. It’s been on the list since the dawn of time, hasn’t it?” How very biblical! But fear not, for Haar is convinced that one of these dramas will unfold within the next three to 24 months. Mark your calendars, darlings.

At press time, BTC traded at $70,861-a figure as dazzling as a Coward one-liner.
