Entrepreneur and investor Mark Cuban, with a net worth of $5.4 billion, recently speculated that geopolitical instability and inflationary pressures could drive Bitcoin to become a global reserve asset.
According to the billionaire, the rising support in Silicon Valley for former President Trump could signal a “Bitcoin plan” from the big tech sector. Cuban explained that the geopolitical role of the United States is being questioned, and inflationary pressures could increase with the introduction of future tax cuts promised by the former president.
Cuban suggests that these developments act as perfect catalysts to push Bitcoin’s price higher. He clarified that he does not assert these events will happen, but they are within the realm of possibility.

Inflation, Geopolitical Instability, and the Role of Digital Assets
It’s no secret that fiat currencies continue to be affected by rampant money printing. This includes the US dollar, the primary currency used for cross-border trade payments and savings.
Earlier this year, former Speaker of the US House of Representatives Paul Ryan discussed the role stablecoins could play in saving the dollar and maintaining its global dominance. Ryan argued that stablecoins are a way to uphold the dollar’s dominance amidst extremely high debt obligations and competition from China’s yuan.
Although the fundamentals of stablecoins are tied to fiat currencies, much like the underlying currencies they represent, dollar-pegged stablecoins would increase demand for the dollar, potentially mitigating the debt crisis.
In Venezuela, economic hardships due to sanctions, government corruption, and uncontrolled inflation have led more people to turn to cryptocurrency for relief. Digital assets accounted for 9% of all remittances sent to Venezuela in 2023.
The increasing volume of cryptocurrency remittances reflects the low transaction costs and near-instant settlement times compared to traditional fiat remittance services.
Argentina is another case where a segment of the population affected by inflation seeks refuge in digital currencies. Argentina has an annual inflation rate of 276%, which has driven disproportionate cryptocurrency adoption among its population.
