Crypto Industry News:

Investor Jim Rogers, who founded the Quantum Fund with billionaire George Soros, expects the current bear market to be much worse than we think. He adds that the recession ahead will be the worst of his life. "We will probably have our last rally, but that will be the end," he predicts.

The famous investor Jim Rogers shared his view on the state of the US economy in a press interview published on Monday. Rogers is a former business partner of George Soros who co-founded Quantum Fund and Soros Fund Management.

He was asked if right now was "the beginning of an impending recession, the worst some have predicted". Rogers replied:

"Well, (...) yeah, this is going to be the worst [recession] of my life.

"In 2008 we had a problem because of too much debt, but since 2009 debt has increased sharply everywhere," he added, explaining why he believes that we are in a very tough crisis.

In July, Rogers had already warned that the worst slump of his life was coming. He also predicted the end of the US dollar.

It is still unknown how cryptocurrencies would react to such a long bear market. There is a chance that they would break away from the stock market and function as safe haven.
