Matt traces the unwind of the post-Bretton-Woods offshore-dollar (eurodollar) system back to 2008, explains how the Federal Reserve's deprecation of LIBOR in favor of SOFR moved the dollar's command center from London to New York, and frames the 2024 election as a fork in the road between Biden's CBDC path (EO 14067) and the Trump / Sovereignist asset-backed dollar path. He details the playbook unfolding under Scott Bessent and Treasury: the GENIUS Act stablecoin as the bridge, a Bitcoin reserve targeting 1 million BTC (per Congressman Begich's American Reserve Modernization Act, the successor to Senator Lummis' Bitcoin Act), and gold becoming the biggest liquidity pool while the offshore dollar drains. Matt argues that Bitcoin is NOT yet seen as a risk-off asset by the market, but the long-term setup points there. He reframes MicroStrategy as a "dollar strategy" rather than a Bitcoin strategy: borrowing US onshore equity-market liquidity at 11-13% to go long Bitcoin priced primarily in the OLD offshore-dollar (Tether) standard, with major implications for stretch and the broader DAT trade. Plus historical parallels (Civil War greenbacks transitioning to the gold-pegged dollar of 1875; silver certificates phasing out for Fed notes from 1957), Tether's December 2023 alignment with the American Sovereignist movement, the Schwab UTXO Bitcoin custody rollout, and how to position for the most violent middle innings of this dollar transition.🧠 Chapters00:00 - Introduction and Context Setting01:52 - Monetary Reshuffling and Global Dynamics12:50 - The Shift from Liability to Asset-Based Dollar20:51 - Implications for Investors and Capital Allocation26:31 - The Future of Bitcoin in the New Monetary Order35:12 - The Future of Currency: Asset-Backed Dollars42:32 - Tether's Strategic Shift and Geopolitical Implications46:07 - Fragmentation in the Bitcoin Space52:30 - Corporate Strategies and Market Dynamics61:29 - The Integration of Bitcoin into Traditional Finance💡 Subscribe & Stay AheadGet Onramp's weekly Research & Analysis:High-signal insights in bitcoin, macro, and custody.📩 https://onrampbitcoin.com/researchSubscribe to Onramp Media for more:🎧 The Last Trade | Final Settlement | Scarce Assets
