Quantitative Easing and a trillion dollar coin are equally destructive. Zerohedge has the best analysis of why, so I suggest starting there. The dollar is on a continued trajectory towards debasement, as are the other world currencies.

Bitcoin is an ideal insurance policy, given its global reach and ease of transport. Combined with an offline wallet that is only used to sign payments broadcast to the network, it has unparalleled security.

Given how things are developing in the world now, it would be smart to firewall some of your wealth in bitcoin. It is going to get ugly out there.
