A pension fund CIO just dropped some harsh reality: the US credit situation is basically broken, and honestly, the government's long-term finances just don't add up. This isn't some fringe take—it's coming from major institutional money that manages real portfolios. When people managing billions start questioning the sustainability of sovereign debt, that's the kind of signal the crypto crowd pays attention to. It raises some uncomfortable questions about currency stability, inflation hedges, and why some investors are diversifying into alternative assets. The traditional financial establishment is basically admitting what many in the Web3 space have been saying for years.

We've known this for a long time, and now big institutions are finally speaking out. Is traditional finance about to break its defenses? Haha. That's why I went all in on crypto... Even the big players are starting to panic.

As I was listening, even someone managing billions of dollars started to panic. You have to believe it.

I've long seen through it; the traditional finance system has finally collapsed.

Big institutions are starting to back down, what does this mean? It shows that what we've seen through long ago is now becoming a mainstream topic. --- The sovereign debt game will eventually collapse. Instead of waiting to die, it's better to start earning now. --- Haha, traditional finance has finally admitted it is bankrupt. Pity, if they had come to Web3 earlier, it wouldn't be like this. --- Billions of dollars are fleeing, and you're still holding US bonds and sleeping soundly? --- This is what I've been wanting to say — inflation hedging doesn't work, and anti-inflation assets are the real necessity. DeFi's APY is way more attractive than government bonds. --- I really can't hold it anymore; you can tell from the institutional rhetoric that they are just looking for an exit. --- Another classic "delayed realization," we Degen were discussing this last year, and now it's their turn to wake up.
