Furthermore, Musk also shared an article from the Financial Times, where they discussed the fact that the global commodity prices are on track to see the biggest rally in over 50 years as a direct result of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
The CEO of MicroStrategy, Michael Saylor, replied to Musk’s tweet, claiming that: “USD consumer inflation will continue near all time highs, and asset inflation will run at double the rate of consumer inflation.”
USD consumer inflation will continue near all time highs, and asset inflation will run at double the rate of consumer inflation. Weaker currencies will collapse, and the flight of capital from cash, debt, & value stocks to scarce property like #bitcoin will intensify.

Additionally, Musk also claimed that it is generally better to own physical things such as a home or stock in companies that people think make good products, rather than dollars when inflation is high, and noted that he would not be selling his Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH) and Dogecoin (DOGE).
