Scaramucci calls U.S. Treasury chief Bessent\'s debt warning best bitcoin ad of 2026

Scaramucci wrote on X that Bessent told the G20 the world was submerged in debt, calling that line the entire logic of bitcoin. Bessent raised sovereign debt as a key issue at a G20 meeting and stressed growth over austerity. Bitcoin rose as high as $81,332, though no direct link was confirmed.
