01:41:03 Share

Balaji Srinivasan is back on Bankless with alarming takes. According to Balaji, in the next 90 days, the Dollar will hyperinflate—and the Bitcoin price will skyrocket to $1 Million.

He’s backed up these claims with a million dollar bet. With these dire predictions and a track record of strong takes, we needed to hear him out.
