About this episode
Checkmate breaks down Bitcoin's market structure, why treasury companies are flooding in, and whether the four-year cycle has finally broken. We get into how institutional money is reshaping on-chain dynamics, why long-term holders are behaving differently this cycle, and what the recent 80,000 BTC move signals about dormant supply. Checkmate also explains the risks and opportunities of corporate treasury plays, premium-to-NAV dynamics, and how the rest of this bull market could play out.
