“The bitcoiners noticed first that the USA. Uu. It is false”
Anthony Pompliano questioned in X the validity of economic analysis based on official US data, stating that many experts are wrong to trust them.
According to Pompliano, many professionals believe that employment reports, as well as GDP measurements and inflation provided by the Government, are precise. He states that, according to these analysts, the data is not only correct, but that “the working class is ignorant because it does not understand that things are going well.” In this sense, the CEO of Professional Capital Management said “Any person with common sense knows that the published numbers are incorrect”he added that “even the Secretary of the Treasury has publicly recognized that he does not trust them.”
It is worth noting that there is no evidence that concludes conclusively that Official data on GDP, unemployment, inflation or other economic indicators are manipulated or systematically imprecise. While some question their reliability, government reports are prepared under established methodologies and subject to review, which generates an open debate on what extent they reflect economic reality.
In addition, it is necessary to clarify that there are no specific public statements or the current Secretary of the Treasury, Scott Besent, or his predecessor, Janet Yellen, in which the incorrectness of the official economic data is explicitly recognized. While occasionally it is admitted that the indicators may not capture the entire citizen perception, this does not imply a questioning of the general validity of government reports. Therefore, Pompliano’s assertion could be an interpretation of more general comments.
Thus, the entrepreneur praised the Bitcoiners, since they consider that they were the first “on a large scale to realize that the economic data were incorrect, and found a way of obtaining financial benefits if they were right.” In his opinion, It is impossible to prepare a good analysis based on wrong data.
Although he regrets what he considers a time when, «if you do not share the consensual opinion, they ridicule you and accuse you of being a magician fan [Make America Great Again]», Pompliano argues that,” eventually, everyone will end up realizing that the data is inaccurate. ” According to him, Repeating a generalized opinion does not make it a certain.
“This was true with Bitcoin and it will also be with tariffs,” said Pompliano, who drew a parallel with several principles widely accepted by Keynesian economists, which, according to their perspective, have been refuted by the market.
The author closes his publication with a key advice, such as investigating independently and contrasting sources, instead of blindly following the mass. He emphasizes the importance of critical thinking in finance and points out that, although research may validate the majority opinion, It is equally possible and legitimate to reach a different perspective.
However, following the advice to investigate on your own can be challenging, since Pompliano does not specify which alternative sources could consult citizens to contrast the official data. In many cases, the lack of access to independent and verifiable economic information leads to people ending up trusting government reports, not because they consider them infallible, but because they are the most widespread.
With the progress of the tariff conflict promoted from the US, Pompliano’s analysis have generated interest and promoted debates in social networks. In March, cryptootics reported its perspective on the causes of the fall of cryptocurrencies in 2025. According to the entrepreneur, the Trump administration would be generating uncertainty in the markets with the aim of pressing the Federal Reserve (Fed) to lower interest rates.
Although the economic policies implemented in the United States have had a negative impact on the cryptoactive market, Not all news has been unfavorable for sector users. Recently, Trump signed the repeal of a measure adopted in the last days of the government of Joe Biden, which sought to impose new taxes on decentralized exchanges. Together with this decision, the release of Ross Ulbricht and the creation of a BTC reserve are actions that Trump can highlight as part of the fulfillment of his campaign promises.
