Elliott Management, one of the best-named hedge funds, has sounded the alarm on the recent crypto mania – now viewed with renewed favor by the Trump Administration and warns President Donald Trump, whose overt favoritism is blowing up a bubble that could be very destructive. Elliott Management isn’t worried about speculation in the market but the bigger implications for the US economy and the US dollar being the world’s reserve currency.

Elliott Management Slams Government Support for Cryptos

Elliott Management’s warnings came in a letter to investors, according to the Financial Times. The firm’s leadership wrote in the letter that there is no underlying support for the rapid rise in crypto values and that the growth is unsustainable. This is the latest sign of Elliott’s growing doubts about the long-term viability of crypto assets. This is what the whole investment community is asking: is this rally on fundamentals or just speculation?

“It’s like a crowd of sports bettors”, they said,  sharing that crypto has irrational exuberance. Elliott noted this speculation isn’t limited to crypto but has spread to AI and equities. They say that without even a hint of a regulatory framework to cool off the speculation, the crypto market could crash and burn as it’s unpredictable for retail and institutional investors.

Trump’s Crypto Push

The US government has gone all in for crypto under Donald Trump – a big departure from the more measured approach of previous administrations. Trump’s administration has made several moves to bring crypto closer. Most notably, Trump offered to create a national Bitcoin reserve – the first in the world. The Trump administration also floated several pro-crypto candidates for key regulatory position,s including Paul Atkins for SEC chair and David Sacks as the “AI and crypto czar”.

These moves by Trump and his friends in Washington are seen as a thumbs up to the crypto ecosystem, that the US is open for business regarding blockchain and digital currencies. Hence, the top cryptos have gone up in value, with Bitcoin hitting all-time highs above $108,000 in recent months. It said the increased optimism in crypto markets is because it’s perceived a more crypto-friendly regulatory environment under the Trump administration.

Elliott’s letter noted crypto is now in the financial markets but asked what the speculation is and the long-term implications for the economy. The firm pointed out the big difference with traditional assets like gold or fiat currencies but noted that crypto has no intrinsic value and is all about investor sentiment. So, Elliott warned that a sudden shift in sentiment could mean big losses for investors and more volatility in the broader market.

The US Dollar in a Crypto World

A big part of Elliott Management’s complaint is the role of the US dollar as the global reserve currency. What really got their goat was the promotion of alternatives to the US dollar, given its dominance in international trade and finance. Elliott noted other countries, especially China and Russia, are already looking to get away from the US dollar by working on central bank digital currencies.

The hedge fund argued that promoting cryptocurrencies, which have no central authority or government backing, would undermine the US dollar’s dominance and create chaos in the global markets. Elliott’s concerns are more significant given the founder of the firm, Paul Singer, is well-connected to the conservative movement and is one of the biggest Republican donors. Given those relationships, Elliott’s opposition to the crypto movement is interesting because it’s a crack in the conservative establishment on what the future of the financial system will look and feel like.

Elliott Management also doesn’t sugarcoat the risks of market manipulation: the more investors are in the crypto markets on a speculative basis, the hedge fund warns that there will be no oversight and regulation and market participants will be interested in profits in the short term, not creating value in the long term. They fear it will eventually lead to lost confidence and loss of investor capital.

Trump’s Growing Crypto Influence

Despite Elliott’s warnings, Trump is increasingly pro-crypto. Over the past year, Trump himself and especially his sons – Donald Jr., Eric and Barron have become more involved in the crypto space. Among other projects with the Trump name, the World Liberty Financial – a DeFi finance platform that promised to give underserved members of the mainstream better access to financial services – got backing from the Trumps.

Besides World Liberty Financial Trump, Melania Trump also joined the memecoin game. Their crypto ventures are another sign that crypto is now being adopted by the political and business establishment at least among the Republican leadership. All this political and business interest in crypto is fueling the debate on what role it will play in the future of finance.

Conclusion: Future Outlook

Elliott Management is warning of the risks in the crypto market, but rising prices are speculative. With Trump and his followers getting involved in crypto what does the future of crypto look like? While the promise of blockchain and decentralized finance is big, the speculative nature of crypto markets could cause huge financial instability. As we all get into digital assets, institutional and retail investors must be careful and look at the bigger picture for the global economy.
