Bitcoin and gold seen as safeguards against currency debasement and financial repression by governments.

Governments are using financial repression and currency debasement to manage heavy fiscal spending, shifting costs to wage earners, savers, and bond investors. Over the past five years, $2 of every $3 dollars in circulation were created after Bitcoin's inception, contributing to inflation and loss of purchasing power. Experts suggest that Bitcoin and gold provide alternatives that are harder to dilute, with central banks rapidly accumulating gold and financial institutions increasingly embracing Bitcoin. Without fiscal discipline, currency debasement and financial repression are expected to continue, urging investors to consider these monetary alternatives.

Financial repression and currency debasement are the story's subject, with Pluang data providing market context. As of Oct 20, 2026 10:41 WIB, 24 of 50 major cryptocurrencies rose and 25 fell. Notable movers include SAND at Rp1.037 with a -6.64% change and 44% sell activity, MANA at Rp1.485 down 3.70% with 47% sell activity, and ZIL at Rp39 down 3.37% with 42% sell activity.
