According to market analyst Jordi Visser, Bitcoin (BTC) is poised to grow price and adoption regardless of the macroeconomic scenario that will unfold in the coming decades.
Visser told Anthony Pompliano that the average person has lost faith in all legacy institutions. This should encourage investment in BTC – a neutral, permitted global asset that is not tied to governments or traditional organizations.
The fourth turning is a reference to a book written by William Strauss and Neil Howe, explaining the cyclical rise and fall of a nation due to predictable intergenerational patterns.
“Bitcoin is unreliable. It was first set up to deal with the fact that we don’t trust the bank. He then added:
“I don’t trust my employer. I don’t trust the government. I don’t trust banks. I don’t trust currency. I don’t trust debt. I don’t trust anything.
Comments came amidst consumer trust, geopolitical tensions and record low government debt.

Consumer trust craters as most people are stuck at the bottom of the K-shaped economy
“I don’t feel that the increase in people at the bottom edge of K is part of the system. This is part of the fourth turn,” Visser said.
A K-shaped economy refers to a financial system in which different segments of the population experience different proportions of economic prosperity and recovery.
Those at the top of K holding assets experience increased wealth, while those at the bottom of K experience negative side pressure from currency inflation.
Visser cited the recent University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Report. This found that only 24% of respondents who expected spending habits to remain the same in 2026 expect the prices of goods to rise due to US inflation and trade tariffs.
The majority of respondents also expect the unemployment rate to rise in 2026. Over 60% of people surveyed by the University of Michigan show that they expect higher unemployment.
The latest survey reflects a sharp rise since the beginning of 2025, when around 30% of respondents expected a worsening number of jobs.
