Heavily indebted governments have limited options beyond higher taxes, debt repudiation or inflation, Mr Faber told the recent "Game Changer - Outlook 2026 & Beyond" seminar held in Bangkok. Despite its recent gains, Mr Faber maintains that gold remains undervalued when measured against the expansion of global liquidity and sovereign debt. It is a form of insurance against financial disorder, currency debasement, and political instability," said Mr Faber. As such, Mr Faber sees Bitcoin as a potential diversifier rather than a core store of value comparable to gold. "The biggest risk for investors is not volatility, but the permanent loss of purchasing power in a world dominated by debt and money printing," said Mr Faber.
