Inflation has a lag. We aren't going to switch from deflation to inflation overnight. Inflation likely isn't really possible to become a problem for at least a couple years. Right now, they are still way behind the ball, the "inflation" they are generating isn't enough to even keep things stable.bitcoininthevp wrote: ↑Mon Mar 23, 2020 8:56 amNot a surprise that the smaller more speculative asset gets hit more.

More curious as to how gold and bitcoin will behave moving through this crisis, which seems to be deflationary, and transitioning into what I see as an inevitable highly inflationary environment. AKA does this deflationary period last weeks, months, 18 months? You all might know more about deflationary situations like this have played out in the past?
