Google searches for dollar “debasement” soared this quarter to the highest level in history, reported BarChart on Sunday.

The chart, sourced from Bloomberg and Google Trends, has been widely shared across crypto social media today.

A search for the keyword “debasement” on Google Trends actually shows that it spiked in 2012 and has spiked again recently as fears grow.

Searching for the term “dollar debasement” shows the highest ever levels in recent weeks in the United States.

DXY Down … M2 Supply Up

Fears and curiosity have grown this year as the greenback has had a rough ride, losing more than 10% against certain currencies.

The US Dollar Index (DXY), a measure of the US dollar against a basket of other currencies, has declined since the beginning of this year.

It remained range-bound from late 2022 to late 2024, rising to a two-year high of 110 in January 2025. However, it plunged by more than 12% to a three-year low of 96.3 in mid-September and remains only slightly higher than that level currently, according to Tradingview.

This means that the dollar has steadily weakened against many other currencies worldwide this year.

Additionally, the phrase “debasement trade” came to light this year as investors sought ways to distance themselves from the plunging currency.

In October, entrepreneur Anthony Pompliano said financial institutions are quickly waking up to the debasement trade, realizing that “no one is ever going to stop printing money.”

This is clearly evident in the M2 money supply chart, which has reached an all-time high of $22.3 trillion. With the Federal Reserve ending QT (quantitative tightening) and beginning QE (quantitative easing), liquidity and money printing will increase, further debasing the dollar.

Strong Macro Setup For Crypto

“This chart is one of the biggest signals for crypto right now,” said analyst “Bull Theory” on Sunday.

“If the Fed begins T-bill purchases on top of rate cuts, the liquidity impact will be massive,” they added.

This will weaken the dollar and cause a liquidity expansion, which, historically, has been very bullish for crypto markets.

Here’s How Consumers May Benefit From Lower Interest Rates

Here’s How Consumers May Benefit From Lower Interest Rates

The post Here’s How Consumers May Benefit From Lower Interest Rates appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday opted to ease interest rates for the first time in months, leading the way for potentially lower mortgage rates, bond yields and a likely boost to cryptocurrency over the coming weeks. Average long-term mortgage rates dropped to their lowest levels in months ahead of the central bank’s policy shift. Copyright{2018} The Associated Press. All rights reserved. Key Facts The central bank’s policymaking panel voted this week to lower interest rates, which have sat between 4.25% and 4.5% since December, to a new range of 4% and 4.25%. How Will Lower Interest Rates Impact Mortgage Rates? Mortgage rates tend to fall before and during a period of interest rate cuts: The average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage dropped to 6.35% from 6.5% last week, the lowest level since October 2024, mortgage buyer Freddie Mac reported. Borrowing costs on 15-year fixed-rate mortgages also dropped to 5.5% from 5.6% as they neared the year-ago rate of 5.27%. When the Federal Reserve lowered the funds rate to between 0% and 0.25% during the pandemic, 30-year mortgage rates hit record lows between 2.7% and 3% by the end of 2020, according to data published by Freddie Mac. Consumers who refinanced their mortgages in 2020 saved about $5.3 billion annually as rates dropped, according to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Similarly, mortgage rates spiked around 7% as interest rates were hiked in 2022 and 2023, though mortgage rates appeared to react within weeks of the Fed opting to cut or raise rates. How Do Treasury Bonds Respond To Lower Interest Rates? Long-term Treasury yields are more directly influenced by interest rates, as lower rates tend to result in lower yields. When the Fed pushed rates to near zero during the pandemic, 10-year Treasury yields fell to an all-time low of 0.5%. As…
