THE financial world is evolving at breakneck speed, and the US’s Securities and Exchange Commission’s new chair, Paul Atkins, is hell-bent on ensuring the agency doesn’t miss the crypto train.
In this week’s Crypto Corner, we unpack why staying ahead of the curve is non-negotiable in a landscape buffeted by global events, geopolitics and seismic market shifts.
Tune out these signals and you will fall like Rome, whether you’re an investor, a business or an offshore jurisdiction.
Atkins represents a stark pivot from his predecessors. Gone is the anti-crypto hammer of past Democrat-appointed chairs like Gary Gensler, and in its place is a pro-crypto stance that champions decentralised finance and self-sovereignty.
This dovetails with a Trump administration laser-focused on elevating Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies as complementary stores of value to the US dollar and gold through initiatives such as the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. The upshot? A blueprint for a less inflationary era, where crypto’s capped supply reins in the excesses of money-printing and bolsters global debt-reduction plays.
By 2030, global fiat M2 (broad money supply) could swell to $156-170 trillion (6-7% annual growth from -$96 trillion in 2025), with crypto’s market cap hitting $10-12 trillion, snapping up 6-8% of fiat’s turf.
By 2040, M2 might balloon to $250 trillion, while crypto vaults to $20-40 trillion, carving out an 8-16% slice as the ultimate inflation hedge. Projections draw from BCG’s blockchain analyses and Voronoi’s M2 datasets.
