White House economic advisor Kevin Hassett just dropped a bold forecast: he's eyeing 4% productivity growth for 2026. That's a massive jump if it materializes—productivity gains at that level could reshape inflation dynamics and fuel risk asset rallies. For crypto markets, stronger productivity typically means more capital flowing into speculative plays as traditional investors hunt for yield. But here's the catch: can the economy actually deliver those numbers? If the prediction falls short, we might see sentiment shift fast. Either way, macro watchers should keep this on their radar—productivity data often flies under the radar until it doesn't.

4% productivity growth? Hassett is just putting on a show... In the end, it’ll be nothing again.

4% productivity growth? Is this guy dreaming or is he really confident... 2026 is too far away, this kind of prediction just feels like wishful thinking.

4% productivity? Sounds like they're making empty promises again. Let's see how much they can actually deliver this time next year.
