”Big Beautiful Bill” sparks COVID-19 bull market comparisons
Bitcoin has historically reacted extremely positively to signals that US borrowing will increase. Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” may be no exception, as estimates see US national debt exploding to $40 trillion in 2025.
“To put this into perspective, at the start of 2020, total US debt stood at $23.2 trillion. This would mark a near $17 TRILLION increase in 6 years,” trading resource The Kobeissi Letter wrote in part of a recent analysis on the topic.
“Never in history has the US borrowed even remotely near the levels we are borrowing now. This is a crisis.”

Kobeissi referenced odds from prediction service Kalshi, which provided the $40 trillion figure.
In the past, however, Bitcoin has enjoyed the added risk that increasing the US debt mountain implies.
As noted by crypto X commentators, including the YouTube account Crypto Rover, when Trump signed a COVID-19 spending bill in late 2020, BTC/USD subsequently gained 38% in a matter of weeks.
If the same price action were to follow the Big Beautiful Bill, Bitcoin would end up passing $150,000.
Bitcoin follows the money
As Cointelegraph continues to report, bullish BTC price bets are also being fueled by an expanding global M2 money supply.
