Bitcoin vs Turkey’s Money Printing (The Chart Nobody Talks About)

March 18, 2026

Show Notes

What happens when a country’s money supply explodes… and Bitcoin still keeps pace? In this clip, Matthew walks through the balance sheet of the Turkish central bank and compares it directly to the value of the Bitcoin network. Since 2021, Turkey’s base money has surged dramatically after major political intervention in the central bank and an unusual strategy of lowering interest rates to fight inflation. But here’s the surprising part. Even after massive monetary expansion, Bitcoin is still worth many times more than the entire Turkish central bank balance sheet when measured in lira. Yet despite that strength, Bitcoin is actually lagging its long-term power curve, a signal Matthew believes may be bullish rather than bearish. Instead of chasing extreme predictions like “Bitcoin to $1 million” or “Bitcoin to zero,” this analysis focuses on the natural trend lines that historically shape Bitcoin’s growth.
