Dalio's 'world order collapse' warning could be crypto opportunity, analysis suggests

If U.S. hedge fund titan Ray Dalio's prediction that the world order is collapsing proves true, it could present an opportunity for the cryptocurrency market, BeInCrypto reported. Dalio previously stated on X that the world order established after World War II is breaking down, being replaced by a logic of power that will lead to more frequent conflicts between major nations. He noted that most significant disputes begin with economic pressure before military action, adding that current structural conditions are similar to those in the 1930s after the Great Depression and before the outbreak of the world war. BeInCrypto suggested that the crypto market could be a long-term beneficiary due to its censorship resistance amid financial fragmentation and the risk of asset freezes. However, in the short term, the market is likely to see high volatility due to weakened investor sentiment from rising geopolitical tensions and worsening global liquidity. The outlet also pointed out that while gold recently hit a new all-time high, BTC has struggled to recover, suggesting that investors still consider gold the primary safe-haven asset. The analysis concluded that the crypto market is expected to enter a complex phase driven by risk appetite.
