Bitcoiners Lead Charge Against Flawed US Economic Data, Says Pompliano

Bitcoin Investors First to Spot Flaws in Economic Data, Positioned for Gains Amid Market Uncertainty

  • Bitcoin investors were among the first to identify flaws in U.S. economic data and position themselves for potential financial gain, according to Anthony Pompliano.
  • Pompliano questions the accuracy of official U.S. inflation figures, job numbers, and GDP statistics, noting that even Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has expressed doubt about government data.
  • As concerns over Trump’s tariffs grow, some analysts observe Bitcoin’s uniquely stable performance compared to traditional markets, with the cryptocurrency holding steady while stocks declined.

Crypto entrepreneur Anthony Pompliano claims Bitcoin holders were pioneers in identifying flaws in U.S. economic data while strategically positioning themselves for potential gains. In an April 12 post on X, Pompliano said, "Bitcoiners were the first large-scale group to recognize the economic data was wrong, and they figured out a way to financially capture upside if they were right."

Pompliano further suggested that finance professionals are misinterpreting the impact of tariffs because they place too much trust in government statistics. "The unspoken secret as to why so many finance folks are wrong in their analysis of the tariffs is because the finance folks believe the government data," he noted, questioning the reliability of U.S. inflation metrics, employment statistics, and GDP data amid growing uncertainty over President Trump’s tariff policies.

In a March 20 LinkedIn post, Pompliano highlighted that Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent admitted he doesn’t trust economic data when directly questioned on the All-In podcast. "Even the Treasury Secretary has now publicly acknowledged he doesn’t believe the data. He says we must listen to the people rather than blindly follow the government data reports," Pompliano emphasized.

Bitcoin’s Growing Strength Amid Market Volatility

While concerns over Trump’s tariffs persist, some crypto analysts suggest Bitcoin could outlast the U.S. dollar long-term. Jeff Parks, head of alpha strategies at Bitwise Invest, stated on April 9 that there is a "higher chance Bitcoin survives over the dollar in our lifetime after today."

Data shows the U.S. dollar index (DXY) has dropped 3.19% over five days, sitting at 99.783 at publication time, according to TradingView. This contradicts some Wall Street analysts who predicted Trump’s tariffs would strengthen the dollar, as reported by the Wall Street Journal.

Bitcoin Breaks Traditional Market Correlation

Notably, analysts recently observed that while stock markets declined significantly on April 4 amid tariff concerns, Bitcoin remained relatively stable. This behavior marks a departure from Bitcoin’s typical pattern, as cryptocurrency has historically shown greater volatility than stocks during macroeconomic uncertainty.

On April 4, Bitcoin maintained its position above $82,000 even as U.S. equities tumbled, eventually rallying to $84,720. Additionally, former Bitmex CEO Arthur Hayes suggested Bitcoin may be entering an "up only mode" as the deepening U.S. bond market crisis potentially drives investors away from traditional safe havens toward alternative value stores.
