In a recent statement, Bridgewater Associates founder Ray Dalio discussed stablecoins and cryptocurrencies, highlighting that the bad debt situation of the US dollar and other reserve currencies affects their attractiveness as reserve currencies and stores of wealth, indirectly contributing to the rise in prices of gold and cryptocurrencies.
