The US M2 money supply just hit a record $22.3 trillion. Numbers that'd make your head spin, right? But here's the thing—it's still sitting below total national debt. That gap tells you something about where the real pressure points are in the system. For crypto traders and market watchers, this kind of macro data matters: bigger M2 typically signals easier liquidity conditions, which historically correlates with risk-on sentiment and asset inflation cycles. When monetary supply outpaces debt, you're looking at a different market dynamic than when it lags behind. Keep an eye on how central banks respond to this pressure.

22.3 trillion is not enough to fill the gap, this is outrageous --- Whether M2 breaking records depends on debt levels, no wonder the crypto community is anxious --- Speaking of what the central bank is thinking, continue to loosen monetary policy or hard landing --- Pulling liquidity to the maximum actually increases pressure? This logic is a bit extreme --- Astronomical debt figures, printing money can't keep up, it seems we have to rely on cryptocurrencies --- The Federal Reserve will have to come up with new measures again, is this good news or bad news for us? --- The speed of M2 devaluation can't keep up with debt growth, I can only say one word: desperate --- After this data came out, I feel the market is about to change --- Still not tearing each other's faces? Just wait and see --- Optimistic about crypto, abandoning the dollar, there's no other way

yo wait... so M2 is basically the monetary seasoning in the pot right now, but the debt is still the main course? that's giving me unbalanced recipe vibes ngl. like imagine a smart contract where the collateral never quite covers the debt position... kinda sus fr

M2 has hit a new record again, but it's still being dragged down by debt... now that's the real bug.

22.3 trillion still not enough? It shows that the debt monster really can't be fed enough. --- The issue of M2 being lower than debt... the central bank has to keep printing, there's no other way. --- Loose liquidity = asset inflation. I understand this chain. Now just waiting for the next round of pumping and dumping. --- The real pressure point is that debt can never be fully satisfied. No matter what, this hole can't be plugged. --- The US is playing hot potato. We'll just see who ends up taking the final hit. --- M2 hit a record high, yet debt is still being chased. This system will eventually have problems. Just waiting for that moment. --- Thinking carefully, this is why holding cash is necessary. Playing with fiat currency will eventually lead to collapse.

Damn, 22.3 trillion isn't enough to pay off the debt? This system must have collapsed long ago...
