Jim Cramer’s Bitcoin Circus: Debt Dodge Or Wallet Wipe-Out?

The controversial Mad Money TV host Jim Cramer is back at it again. Known for his always wrong takes on Bitcoin (BTC), as well as the broader crypto & stock markets, the Inverse Cramer dropped a gem on the last episode of CNBC’s Mad Money, urging his audience to consider crypto’s top asset as a hedge against “reckless” government borrowing.

Bitcoin Joins Cramer’s Hedge Roster

This time, Jim Cramer’s Bitcoin pompoms revolved around Bitcoin (BTC) being added to the roster of gold, stocks & bonds as hedging against dollar inflation or governmental spending mishaps. Mr. Cramer further explained that all those investors who were panic selling stocks amid Donald Trump’s imposed global tariffs were “wrong”.

“Pack it up, bulls. See you in four years”, – sarcastically reacted Bitcoin (BTC) maximalist Carl B. Menger, sounding the alarm about the curse of the inverse Cramer. Currently residing at $104,636, the showpiece crypto asset was just $2K below a new all-time high when Jim Cramer’s remarks aired on live TV.

Compared to gold by Jim Cramer, Bitcoin (BTC) does indeed show traits of a value of storage and a long-term investment. According to the latest research by Glassnode, Bitcoin’s quest to $106K has inspired nearly the entire colorful Bitcoin holder spectrum to strengthen their BTC positions.

This is well illustrated in the entry-level Bitcoin holders, holding less than 1 BTC. Retail interest returned when the crown jewel crypto bounced back from the global tariff crisis faster than most stocks and altcoins. Meanwhile, large cohorts between 100 to 100K BTC have been the most eager to get more Bitcoin (BTC).

Only Bitcoin cruisers between 1-10 BTC are still selling, the report noted. The accumulation mood among Bitcoin (BTC) holders has a significant impact on the decreasing Bitcoin crypto reserves on centralized exchanges (CEX). As per Santiment’s statistics, Bitcoin’s (BTC) exchange supply is down to just 7.1%, the lowest since November, 2018.

If history repeats itself, this could be bullish for Bitcoin (BTC) in the long-term. When the exchange reserve hit this critically low metric last time, the King crypto’s price quadrupled in the following half a year, before booming to $62,000 two years later.

On The Flipside

• According to Jim Cramer, the real hedge is more about “what you can save” rather than “get out now”, when it comes to crypto & stock holdings in the wake of government-inflicted economic crises.

Why This Matters

Jim Cramer’s takes on crypto gain publicity for the digital asset class by putting it into a comparative perspective with stocks, bonds & fiat currencies.
