Michael Burry, the hedge fund manager and the prototype of the movie "Big Short", tweeted that the government may "squash" Bitcoin and gold. 

He wrote: "Prepare for #inflation. Re-opening & stimulus on the way. Pre-COVID it took $3 debt to create $1 GDP, and it is worse now. In an inflationary crisis, governments will move to squash competitors in the currency arena. BTC and gold."
