Now, let's consider why Bitcoin is valuable and why Saylor believes it is the future. Bitcoin is valuable because it combines the best qualities of a range of assets. Like gold, it is deflationary. That is, because only a finite amount of it can ever be mined, there is upward pressure on its value. Over time, all else being equal, its price will appreciate. This is in direct contrast to the dollar, which is actually designed to lose value. Inflation is baked into the system. This is a big one for Saylor. Bitcoin, again like gold, is not controlled, issued, or regulated by any one authority. This decentralized nature means that its value is set only by supply and demand in the market; central banks and governments cannot manipulate its price. For those worried about future runaway inflation, Bitcoin could be a financial refuge. Unlike gold, however, Bitcoin is relatively easy to store and exchange. Bitcoin, with value equivalent to all the gold in Fort Knox (about $300 billion), can be held on a thumb drive and sent almost anywhere in the world in a matter of minutes.$BTC

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell delivers a speech on monetary policy to business leaders in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Powell's speech will be followed by a question-and-answer session. Here are the most important sections from Powell's speech: (New additions will be made as the conversation continues, you can access the most up-to-date information by refreshing the page) The economy is not sending signals that the Fed should be in a hurry to cut interest rates. Policy will gradually adjust to a neutral level, but the policy path is not predetermined. Inflation is expected to continue to fall towards the 2% target, but there may be a “fluctuating” course during this process. The Fed is determined to complete its mission of controlling inflation. A strong economy allows the Fed to make prudent decisions. The labor market is robust and inflation is moving toward a sustainable 2% path. The US economy has performed very well recently. The labor market has cooled enough that it no longer creates significant inflationary pressure. The Fed will be watching inflation data closely as it compares to its forecasts. We do not take into account the interests of any political party when making decisions. The Fed's independence means that its monetary policy decisions cannot be reversed or reviewed (by the U.S. government or Congress). Political factors may become a disturbing factor. The Fed has a responsibility to explain our policies to the public and Congress. The credibility of the FED is critical to our work. It is too early to assess the impact of Trump's policies. We have time to assess the net impact of policy changes before responding to them. Analysis will be done before this (policy change) and we will be cautious about policy adjustments until we have more certainty. The US debt situation is unsustainable and needs to be resolved quickly. The bond market is doing well. In the event of financial instability, the Fed can use its emergency tools. Changes in government policies generally do not have an immediate impact on the Fed's ability to achieve its goals. We reserve judgment on the impact of the new policy for now. It is important to wait and see how the actual situation develops. The comments come a week after policymakers decided to cut the key interest rate by another quarter point, or 25 basis points. That followed a half-point cut in September, leaving the federal funds rate in the 4.5%-4.75% range.
