The Wolf Of All Streets

Bitcoin climbed to a two-week high as risk appetite returned to global markets, helped by five straight days of Bitcoin ETF inflows, easing geopolitical tensions, and a rebound in technology stocks. We discuss whether this move marks the beginning of a sustainable breakout or just another rally within Bitcoin's broader consolidation. We also break down the biggest development yet for the CLARITY Act after President Trump reportedly agreed to an ethics provision, dramatically improving the odds of comprehensive U.S. crypto legislation Learn more about your ad choices.

Ran Hindi explains why privacy is the biggest obstacle preventing institutions from moving trillions of dollars onchain. He argues that public blockchains are simply too transparent for real-world finance, and that Zama is building the blockchain equivalent of HTTPS by adding confidential transactions to networks like Ethereum and Solana. The conversation explores how encrypted stablecoins, private DeFi, and confidential onchain finance could unlock institutional adoption without sacrificing compliance, ultimately making privacy the default layer for blockchain transactions rather than a niche feature.

Bitcoin remains stuck in its multi-month range as investors wait for this week's key U.S. inflation data and Fed Chair Kevin Warsh's testimony, which could determine the next move for both crypto and traditional markets. We also cover South Korea's sharp market selloff and why its housing market could become a bigger macro risk, rising oil prices as tensions in the Strait of Hormuz disrupt shipping, and why record-low cash on the sidelines may leave markets more vulnerable if selling accelerates. Finally, we discuss the recent pullback in stablecoin supply and why analysts believe it reflects slowing trading activity rather than the end of the crypto bull market.

Nexo says crypto-backed lending is making a comeback as regulation improves and institutions return to the market. We talked about why more people are borrowing against their Bitcoin instead of selling it, how institutions are coming back as regulation improves, and why the U.S. could become one of the biggest growth markets for crypto lending over the next few years.

Duke finance professor Campbell Harvey explains why the recession everyone expected never arrived, argues that AI-driven productivity is just getting started, and makes the case that crypto's biggest opportunity isn't speculation but tokenized real-world assets and stablecoins. He also challenges the idea that Bitcoin is "digital gold," explains why he believes Bitcoin remains highly volatile, and outlines a controversial thesis that derivatives markets could make a theoretical 51% attack on Bitcoin economically profitable. The conversation wraps up with why AI agents may become crypto's biggest long-term use case and how tokenization could reshape the global financial system. Learn more about your ad choices.

Bitcoin is showing resilience as it pushes above $64,000, with its 307-day consolidation becoming one of the longest in history and setting the stage for a potential breakout. We also cover why Circle's new OCC approval is a major win for stablecoins, Robinhood's growing dominance in onchain trading, and how the next draft of the CLARITY Act could reshape crypto regulation in the U.S. Plus, we discuss Coinbase's legal leadership transition, and the push by Hyperliquid and Phantom for DeFi-specific regulation.

In this episode, Scott and the panel discuss the quick downturn in the crypto markets on the news that Iran ceasfire is over. At the same time, the stablecoin competition between USDT and USDC is heating up, with USDC quietly handling a majority of on-chain transactions, a point highlighted by a recent Visa report. As we consider the implications of institutional adoption and the need for clearer regulations, there's a consensus that the upcoming month is crucial for the Clarity Act, which could influence market dynamics significantly. The introduction of innovative privacy solutions, such as those being developed by Zama, promises to enhance confidentiality in on-chain finance, addressing the growing demand for secure transactions. With expectations that on-chain finance may soon encompass trillions, the future of crypto appears poised for a resurgence, especially if institutions can navigate the balance between privacy and compliance effectively.

Bitcoin fell below $62K after renewed U.S.-Iran tensions triggered a broader risk-off move across markets. We break down the macro forces driving Bitcoin, why Japanese companies are adding BTC to their treasuries as the yen weakens, and what it means for the market. We also discuss Robinhood chain hot start, Strike's no-liquidation Bitcoin-backed loans, Morgan Stanley's AI outlook, and why Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan believes this correction is a healthy deleveraging process, forming the bottom for higher prices in the fall.

Bitcoin is back above $63K despite Michael Saylor selling 3,588 BTC ($216M), weak equity markets, and record ETF outflows. We discuss whether Bitcoin is showing genuine relative strength, if Strategy's selling has finally been priced in, and why the recovery in STRC could restart Strategy's Bitcoin buying engine just as the macro backdrop begins to improve. We also cover the $7 trillion AI debt building behind the AI boom, why Chinese AI models are putting pressure on OpenAI and Anthropic, the sharp selloff in South Korean semiconductor stocks despite record Samsung earnings, and President Trump's latest comments suggesting Bitcoin could eventually be added to Trump Accounts.

In this episode, Dave and the panel analyze MicroStrategy’s surprise Bitcoin sale and how it dismantled forced-seller and sole-buyer narratives, with the market showing resilience from the lows. Joined by Gary, Lou, Michael, and Jamie, they critique altcoin treasury companies holding hundreds of thousands of BTC but lacking viable models or revenue to token holders, creating zombie projects and exhausted leadership without catalysts. Contrasting this with Bitcoin’s hard money thesis amid fiat expansion, they examine Ethereum and Solana’s user growth versus challenges delivering value to holders, similar to utility protocols. The discussion covers on-chain spam from inscriptions, governance debates on filtering, misaligned miner and holder incentives, quantum concerns, and the need for greater professionalism to overcome immaturity and attract institutional capital. They conclude Bitcoin remains underpriced with strong long-term prospects as digital gold. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In today's Macro Monday, we break down why Bitcoin may be entering the final stages of its correction. Spot Bitcoin ETFs have started seeing inflows again after record outflows, miner stress has reached historically rare capitulation levels, and the market continues to absorb selling from Strategy without breaking key support. We also discuss why the macro backdrop may finally be shifting in Bitcoin's favor. Hedge funds just recorded their biggest tech selloff since 2016, expectations for Fed rate cuts are rising after weak jobs data, gold is rallying despite ETF outflows, and investors are beginning to ask whether capital is rotating out of AI and back into store-of-value assets like Bitcoin and gold.

Matthew Sigel from VanEck breaks down exactly how his Node fund has outperformed Bitcoin by 100 percentage points since launch, why he's been overweight miners pivoting to AI and underweight exchanges and altcoins, and why he believes Bitcoin will be materially higher a year from now. He explains why the OpenUSD consortium of 140 companies threatening Circle and Tether will likely struggle because consortiums historically fail without a clear business driver, reveals that Bitcoin's hash rate is in its longest decline ever without making a new high as listed miners exit for AI data centers, argues that alt season already happened in crypto equities rather than tokens, shares why he respects the four-year cycle and tells clients to have their full position by October, and makes the case that strategy DATs should carry a living will that forces an unwind if they trade below MNAV for too long.

Their research helped the SEC approve the Bitcoin ETFs. Their dashboards helped expose the FTX collapse before anyone else knew what was happening. In this interview, Adrian Fritz and Eli Ndinga from 21Shares break down why institutional allocation to crypto is still practically zero despite all the headlines, how they decide which products to bring to market before the narrative even exists, and why the old altcoin seasons where everything pumps together are never coming back. They explain how blockchains are about to become invisible infrastructure that your mother uses without knowing it, where the next mini bubbles will form in privacy and AI, and why 99% of crypto assets won't exist in a few years — but the 1% that survive will be the Googles and Facebooks of the next era.

Bitcoin rebounds after hitting a fresh 21-month low, below its 200-week moving average — but underneath the panic, whales just made THE LARGEST single Bitcoin accumulation spike EVER recorded on chain: 270,000 BTC scooped up at $59K, bigger than the COVID bottom (150K) and the FTX bottom. Cantor Fitzgerald says the bear market is entering its FINAL stretch, projecting a late October bottom based on historical cycles. Metaplanet added 2,823 BTC to push its stack past 43,000. Robinhood just went 24/5 as DTCC's new 24x5 clearing goes live — Wall Street is officially catching up to crypto's 24/7 reality. Meanwhile the biggest stablecoin launch in history just dropped: 140+ giants — BlackRock, Visa, Stripe, Mastercard, Amex, Google, Coinbase, Ripple — launched Open USD (OUSD), a USDC killer that crashed Circle stock 15% overnight. Add June's brutal Marubozu candle (worst month since June 2022), Fed rate HIKE fears from Kevin Warsh, Strategy's $1.25 BILLION sell authorization, and Trump's disclosed $1.4 BILLION in 2025 crypto earnings blowing up Clarity Act ethics negotiations — and we break down whether smart money just called the bottom, or if this is a whale trap before the next leg lower.

In this episode, hosts and guests explore the stark contrast between widespread bearish crypto sentiment and their own bullish conviction, noting how prediction markets and AI equities are thriving while crypto feels sidelined. They break down the major stablecoin consortium announcement involving Visa, Mastercard, Stripe, Coinbase, BlackRock and banks, which redirects Treasury yields away from issuers like Circle and triggered sharp stock moves. The discussion covers why a 2022-style leverage implosion is unlikely this cycle due to improved lending models, proof of reserves, and better risk management, alongside MicroStrategy’s dynamics and why it isn’t a near-term forced seller. They also examine traditional finance’s push to adopt stablecoin rails—including potential disruption from X Money—regulatory shifts like the Clarity Act, and why Bitcoin remains undervalued long-term as a digitally native asset amid institutional adoption and cycle patterns.

Bitcoin just cratered to $57K — a fresh 21-month low, the lowest since September 2024 — as the token sliced through its 200-week moving average, historically a signal of prolonged bear markets. Fed rate HIKE fears from Kevin Warsh and mounting concerns over Strategy's new $1.25 BILLION sell authorization are stripping Bitcoin's biggest structural bid, with June ETF outflows now confirmed at a record $6 BILLION. Meanwhile the biggest stablecoin story ever just dropped: 140+ giants — including BlackRock, Visa, Stripe, Mastercard, Amex, Google, Samsung, Shopify, Coinbase, and Ripple — just launched Open USD (OUSD), a USDC killer with zero mint/redeem fees and reserve earnings shared with partners. Stripe's president declared OUSD "the DEFAULT stablecoin for businesses running on Stripe," and Circle stock (CRCL) crashed 15% overnight. Add Trump's disclosed $1.4 BILLION in 2025 crypto earnings blowing up the Clarity Act ethics fight — and we break down whether Bitcoin's bottom is in, or if this is just the start of something much worse.

Bitcoin has just 4 weeks of Senate floor time before August recess to pass the Clarity Act — the bill that could unlock billions in sidelined institutional capital — and the political clock just got brutal. Trump is refusing to sign the housing bill (which carries the four-year CBDC ban) unless lawmakers approve a voter-ID bill, threatening the entire legislative track, while JPMorgan officially endorsed the Clarity Act today but loaded it with stablecoin restrictions designed to protect their deposit business. But the bull signals are stacking: DTCC's NSCC just went 24x5 (Wall Street catching up to crypto's 24/7 reality), and Fidelity outlined 5 catalysts that could end the bear market.

In this crypto town hall show, Dave, Scott, and Peter Schiff discuss Michael Saylor and Strategy’s new manifesto and market reaction. Topics include Strategy’s long-term Bitcoin appreciation bet with no near-term selling or buying, 25-month reserves via preferreds, share repurchases, dividends, and capped BTC sales. They analyze MSTR outperforming in BTC rallies but lagging in flat markets, STRC as high-yield debt tied to future Bitcoin price, and dismissal of 2022-style forced liquidation waves. Crypto sentiment covers retail exodus and fear versus net platform buys and Solana’s surprising strength and adoption. Ethereum foundation shifts are noted. The core debate examines token economics and valuations: Bitcoin as unmatched digital gold with superior security and global PoW access, versus utility tokens on Ethereum, Solana, Hyperliquid, single-use chains, and compute tokens potentially accruing value through fees, tokenization, or agentic commerce — or remaining narrative-driven distortions like the internet bubble, without real economics flowing to holders per DTCC-style analogies. Regulatory challenges around the Howey test and token pass-through are touched on, alongside a light Dogecoin versus Bitcoin exchange. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Bitcoin just had its WORST ETF month in history — $4.1 BILLION pulled in June, with BlackRock's IBIT alone accounting for $3 billion — while gold is holding $4,000 even as the US and Iran traded fresh attacks in the Strait of Hormuz. Bitcoin is now down 30% YTD and on track for a second straight quarterly loss, with legendary investor Jeremy Grantham — who called both the dot-com and 2008 crashes — predicting on CNBC that Bitcoin will "dwindle away with a whimper." Meanwhile Peter Schiff just issued a fresh Saylor warning: MSTR can't sell Bitcoin without crashing the market, and even STOPPING buys would crush the price. Brad Garlinghouse called STRC's slide below par a "damning indictment" of Saylor's strategy as Strategy stock hit its lowest level since February 2024. Saylor responded by teasing more buying with his "we're gonna need more charts" post. We break down whether gold has officially won the safe-haven trade — and what Thursday's Jobs Report could mean for Bitcoin's July. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Yat Siu of Animoca Brands lays out his provocative thesis that AI agents — not humans — will drive the next crypto bull run, creating hundreds of billions of autonomous wallets transacting on chain through microtransactions that only blockchain can support. He reveals Animoca's new agentic platform HelloMinds.ai, explains why altcoin tokens will become the commodities of the AI economy while L1 chains risk becoming commoditized like telcos, warns that dollar stablecoins are already "colonizing" foreign economies and forcing governments to react, shares how a simple grocery price agent exposed a 75% spread saving $500-700 per month, argues that NFTs are quietly coming back as status symbols that AI agents themselves will purchase for identity, and announces a $10 million fund for builders creating agentic AI on their platform.

11 million Bitcoin underwater...capitulation or opportunity? Today's panel explains why the stat is overstated due to custodial ETF and exchange holdings where transfers no longer signal real ownership. They cover record long-term holder conviction, the persistent four-year cycle with possible lower lows into Q3/Q4, and lack of true capitulation without leverage deleveraging. Macro pressures from SpaceX liquidity drains, geopolitics, and inflation are weighed against stablecoins powering dollar dominance, tokenization, and RWAs. The discussion highlights crypto’s bifurcation into Bitcoin as neutral collateral versus infrastructure for AI agents and machine-to-machine payments. Special focus on MicroStrategy’s STRC yields, MNAV debates, dilution risks, cash runway issues, and “investigation” headlines as law firm class-action PR, alongside current bear market frustration and the constructive long-term outlook.

Bitcoin just hit its lowest level since October 2024 — dipping as low as $58,000 with US spot Bitcoin ETFs seeing RECORD investor flight. The bear catalysts are stacking faster than any point this cycle: Saylor's Strategy just hit a 2-year low (-46% in 30 days), STRC briefly cratered to $74 (designed for $100), the company has only ~10 months of dividend coverage left with $1.2B in annual obligations, and Rosen Law Firm just launched a class action probe — with Saylor responding only that "volatility tests every capital structure." Add Binance LEAVING the EU after failing MiCA (France, Italy, Poland, Spain), the Nasdaq losing $1 TRILLION in 27 minutes today with no headline trigger, BitGo laying off 15% of staff, and the CLARITY Act at real risk of slipping to fall. But the bull signals are quietly stacking: US households are sitting on $3.2 TRILLION in cash (record high), Tom Lee's BitMine just joined the Russell 1000, SBI is acquiring Japan's largest crypto exchange, and Kalshi is targeting a $40 BILLION valuation.

Bitcoin just set an all-time pain record - 10.83 MILLION BTC are now held at a loss per Glassnode, matching the exact setup that marked cycle bottoms in 2019, 2020, and 2022. But the bull signal lands into Friday's $10 BILLION options expiry where most positions are deeply OTM bullish bets, setting up a brutal squeeze. We break down whether 10.83M coins underwater marks the historic cycle bottom OR a bear trap before $50K, what Friday's $10B expiry actually means, and whether long-term holder conviction is the bull signal nobody's pricing in.

In this cloudy Las Vegas morning crypto space, Dave and insiders unpack Ethereum’s Foundation shakeup and the rise of new decentralized teams. They break down the broad market correlation and 20% drops across majors, driven by macro forces and AI draining liquidity. The crew debates DeFi’s yield wins versus broken trading mechanics, the edge of perpetual swaps, exploding prediction markets, Binance’s Europe regulatory mess, MicroStrategy as a Bitcoin yield play, cronyism in finance, and privacy tech like Midnight that protects choice while opening institutional doors.

Bitcoin is staring down its biggest day of the week: a $10.6 BILLION Deribit options expiry Friday with nearly 80% of positions out-of-the-money, clustered around a $60K put and $80K call — meaning the next 48 hours will decide whether the relief rally extends or collapses. CryptoQuant publicly called on Saylor to STOP buying as Strategy's dividend obligations QUADRUPLED to $1.2B annually. Add the dollar at a 7-month high, Meta secretly building a prediction market called Arena, the CFTC suing Kentucky as the federal-state war hits 9 states, and the CLARITY Act with 4 unresolved sticking points and 5 weeks until Senate recess — and Friday's $10.6B expiry is the single most important catalyst of Q3. We break down what $60K vs $80K means for the rest of the cycle, whether Saylor will actually pause, and which catalyst could break the floor before Friday. Learn more about your ad choices.

Bitcoin hit a two-week low at $61,877 (-3.9%) as a brutal AI tech selloff dragged risk assets globally: South Korea's KOSPI crashed 10%, Samsung and SK Hynix each cratered 12%, and SpaceX has now lost $600 BILLION across three trading days. Bloomberg is calling Bitcoin "tied at the hip" to the AI trade — the digital gold thesis is dying. Add Bank of America's bombshell call for THREE rate HIKES in 2026, the Senate passing a CBDC ban through 2030 in an 85-5 vote, and Jamie Dimon warning the bull market is a "little tsunami" — and today's setup is the cleanest macro inflection we've seen all month. We break down whether Bitcoin's new AI correlation is structural, what BofA's hike call means for the cycle, and whether Trump's quantum executive order is a real threat or just optics.

Bitcoin's brutal six-week ETF bleed is finally easing. Santiago Capital's blockbuster 84-page report from Brent Johnson warning that the dollar can't die of weakness — only of STRENGTH, when a sustained DXY spike forces enough sovereign and corporate defaults to compel an alternative system — and today's setup is the cleanest macro inflection point we've seen all cycle.

Carolyn Pham, the former CFTC commissioner now leading MoonPay's institutional push, says crypto has roughly two and a half years to become too big to fail — and the numbers already prove it's happening. Stablecoins did $28 trillion in volume in a single quarter, dwarfing Visa and MasterCard combined. Tokenized repo is hitting $10 trillion every month. In this conversation recorded live at Consensus 2026, Carolyn breaks down what MoonPay Institutional actually means for every bank and asset manager trying to get into crypto without building from scratch, why the narrative that DeFi is incompatible with KYC is a complete fallacy, and how she built America's first digital asset taxonomy at the CFTC that became the foundation for everything the SEC and CFTC are doing now. She explains why this isn't disruption but modernization, how a $100 million acquisition of Israeli defense tech cybersecurity gives MoonPay the wallet infrastructure institutions actually trust, and why a Bitcoin in every brokerage account is the real point of no return.

Grant Cardone says he may have found a way to disrupt the $4 trillion real estate industry by combining income-producing real estate with Bitcoin. In this interview recorded live at Consensus 2026, Grant breaks down why the 1965 REIT model is fundamentally broken — companies forced to distribute 90% of their cash with nothing left for capital expenditures — and how his Bitcoin real estate hybrid solves the liquidity problem that's crushing major institutions like Starwood right now. He explains why 80% of his investors have never owned Bitcoin before, how showing them the hybrid model turned them into Bitcoin buyers on their own, and why he believes every major institution will eventually adopt this model. Grant also reveals how he almost lost $12 million in Bitcoin on a plane he sold to Tim Draper, why he thinks Bitcoin should be $150,000 today, and what Michael Saylor said when he saw Grant's first hybrid deal.

In this fiery Crypto Town Hall discussion, hosts and guests debate whether MicroStrategy's STRC is truly "digital credit" or high-yield preferred equity riding Bitcoin's wave—sparking retail outrage as it traded sharply below par amid leverage unwinds and DeFi vault concerns. Experts break down the risks of emotional investing, Saylor's bold Bitcoin accumulation strategy, and why forced selling fears are overblown given the company's hoard. The conversation pivots to exciting news from Ledn: support for tokenized Tether Gold (XAUT) alongside expanded stablecoins like USDT and USDC for seamless borrowing, repaying, and trading against Bitcoin. Discover why gold's lower volatility complements Bitcoin as a tried-and-true hard asset, offering potentially better loan terms, and how focusing on real value over hype products leads to smarter portfolio decisions in volatile markets.

Bitcoin just flashed one of its most reliable historical buy signals — dipping below its 200-week moving average twice in two weeks, a setup Kraken's Chief Economist Thomas Perfumo says has delivered 113% MEDIAN returns over the following year (and 313% over two years), with median time to break even of just TWO DAYS. The signal has only triggered on roughly 10% of all trading days since 2017. But the bull case lands into a brutal backdrop: Add Franklin Templeton filing BTC-reinvesting dividend ETFs, BlackRock's BITA pitched as "too big to ignore" for income investors, and Illinois passing the most punitive crypto tax in the country — and today's setup is the wildest bull/bear divergence we've seen all cycle. We break down whether Kraken's 113% historical signal will hold against Saylor's structural crisis, what miners going below cost actually means, and whether BTC's two-day median break-even is the bull case nobody's talking about.

Bitcoin tanked to $64,000 after Kevin Warsh's first FOMC turned full hawkish — the median dot plot now sees a 2026 rate HIKE, October hike odds jumped to 60%, and Bitcoin/Ether ETFs swung back to outflows ($111M combined, with BlackRock's IBIT bleeding $31M). But the on-chain picture is bullish: Bitcoin whales (1,000+ BTC addresses) just reversed months of selling and now control the highest BTC supply since March, absorbing 125,000 BTC in the first half of June. Add Strategy's STRC preferred stock hitting a record low (freezing Saylor's main BTC-buying engine), whale-sized 1,750 BTC put hedges at the $62K strike flashing weekend caution, Bitwise's Matt Hougan still calling for $1 million Bitcoin within 10 years, and the SEC scrapping the trade-through rule (clearing the runway for tokenized stocks) — and today's setup is the most confusing tape of the cycle. We break down whether the whale accumulation signals the bottom is in, what Warsh's hawkish pivot means for 2026, and whether the $62K weekend put hedge is the warning everyone's missing.

In this episode, the panel dissects Illinois’ sweeping new tax on digital assets—crypto, stablecoins, prediction markets, and tokenized stocks—that could gut CME Bitcoin futures liquidity, hammer market makers, and spark dormant-commerce-clause lawsuits. They analyze Hyperliquid’s surge, the Spacex perp’s unlock volatility, and how perps trading 3-10x spot volume amplify moves; the Spacex IPO’s capital drain (only 4% float, massive August–December unlocks); altcoin pops like Uniswap and Zcash amid rock-bottom Bitcoin volatility and AI-coin bids; privacy coins versus rising wealth taxes; Fed rate-path risks; tokenized-asset disconnects; SBF’s “VC lottery” luck; casino lobbying against sports prediction markets; and why a quiet, hated-rally summer market may reward smart positioning.

Bitcoin's relief rally faces its first real test today as Warsh's first FOMC meeting lands — markets are pricing 50-65% odds of at least one 2026 rate HIKE after May CPI ripped to 4.2%, and Warsh is expected to scrap Powell's forward guidance entirely. The on-chain backdrop is bullish: Bitcoin's Sharpe ratio just hit -20 (the same signal that marked every cycle low since 2015), holders absorbed 125,000 BTC in the first half of June, and whales pulled 11,000 BTC off exchanges yesterday. We break down whether the bottom signal holds, what Warsh's first dot plot means for Bitcoin, and which catalysts could extend or kill the relief rally. Learn more about your ad choices.

Bitcoin just SMASHED past $66,000 — its highest level in over a week — as the Iran peace deal momentum continues and the market braces for Warsh's first FOMC meeting tomorrow. The setup is brutal: May CPI ripped to 4.2% (driven by the Iran/Hormuz energy spike), prediction markets now price 50-65% odds of at least one 2026 rate HIKE, and Warsh is expected to scrap Powell's forward guidance entirely — meaning Wednesday's dot plot could swing risk assets either direction. Add Saylor's most ambitious forecast yet (Bitcoin to $7 MILLION — "It's inevitable"), Chamath calling $1.14M per coin based on halving math, Kraken launching CFTC-regulated Bitcoin perps for US customers, Elon Musk's net worth crossing $1.3 TRILLION (bigger than all but 12 public companies), and Robinhood cutting 10% of its workforce — and today's setup is the cleanest pre-FOMC inflection we've seen all cycle. We break down whether the Iran rally has legs, what Warsh's first dot plot means for Bitcoin, and whether $7 million is actually possible or pure hopium. Learn more about your ad choices.

Bitcoin just RIPPED to $66k as Trump confirmed the U.S.-Iran peace deal will be signed Friday in Switzerland — ending the 15-week war that's been crushing risk assets all month. WTI oil collapsed 5%, the Strait of Hormuz reopens within 30 days, Nasdaq futures ripped +1.5%, and Glassnode flagged $68K-$80K as the next bullish marker. Add SpaceX's record-breaking IPO closing +19% at a $1.77 trillion valuation, Tether briefly flipping Ethereum for the first time in 8 years, and Mike McGlone forecasting USDT could eventually top Bitcoin — and today's setup is the cleanest bullish inflection we've seen since October. We break down whether the Iran peace deal marks the cycle bottom and which catalysts could keep this rally running through the G7 summit. Learn more about your ad choices.

When BlackRock needed to tokenize their first fund, they called Securitize. When the New York Stock Exchange decided to trade stocks 24/7 on-chain, they called Securitize. In this interview, CEO Carlos Domingo reveals why the DTCC is repeating the same fatal mistake the telecom companies made when WhatsApp arrived, why the banks actually need the Clarity Act far more than crypto does, and what happens when AI agents start trading tokenized assets in real time. Carlos breaks down the Jump Trading partnership, how atomic swaps are replacing T+1 settlement, why BlackRock choosing Securitize changed everything for institutional adoption, and his vision for a future where tokenized stocks, ETFs, and AI-powered portfolios all live in one wallet — and you don't even know you're using a blockchain.

In this lively episode on SpaceX IPO day, the guys break down Elon Musk’s paper trillionaire moment as a classic buy-the-news event, covering heavy passive index inflows, massive retail oversubscription exceeding $100 billion, and Fidelity’s push to democratize access, while weighing crypto spillover possibilities like Dogecoin shoutouts, SpaceX’s Bitcoin holdings, space mining ideas, max pain scenarios, and longer-term $250K BTC views alongside cautions on emotional investing. They also explore capital reallocation, silver’s potential bottom, oil sliding below $90 with peace deal rumors and Cushing inventories pressuring inflation, the AI industrial revolution, expectations for lower interest rates, currency debasement boosting real assets, a sharp debate on Visa/Mastercard versus Bitcoin and stablecoin rails—including chargebacks, fraud, rewards, and merchant surcharges—and bullish signals from SEC Chair Paul Atkins on Rule 611 paving the way for tokenized assets and market convergence.

Bitcoin and Gold are both posting the worst year of any major asset class in 2026 — BTC down 30%, Gold down 6% and Charlie Bilello says it's the first time we've ever seen this in a calendar year. Meanwhile, SpaceX just made history today, debuting at a $1.75 TRILLION valuation in the largest IPO ever recorded (2.4x the previous record Saudi Aramco) with retail orders alone exceeding $70 billion. We break down whether Bitcoin and Gold's historic underperformance signals a generational opportunity or the death of the safe haven thesis, what $75 billion flowing INTO SpaceX means for the next leg of crypto liquidity, and which catalysts could finally turn the tape.

Bitcoin just triggered the signal that has marked every previous bear market bottom — half of all circulating BTC supply (roughly 10.5 million coins) is now trading at a loss per Glassnode/K33 Research, the first time this has happened since the late 2022 cycle low. But realized losses over the last 30 days sit at just 187,000 BTC versus 1.2 million after the FTX collapse, meaning capitulation hasn't actually hit yet. Meanwhile, Japan just delivered the biggest bullish policy shift of 2026 — reclassifying crypto as financial products, slashing the tax rate from 55% to 20%, and opening the door to spot crypto ETFs. Add Wall Street dumping $10.8 billion of tech stocks last week (largest tech outflow ever recorded), SoftBank trying to borrow $6 billion against its OpenAI stake just to keep funding OpenAI, Warren's Hail Mary to delay tomorrow's $75B SpaceX IPO, and the historical reality that the 10 biggest IPOs in history dropped 35% in their first six months — and today's setup may be the cleanest historic bottom signal we've seen in three years. We break down whether the supply-in-loss signal actually holds, why capitulation hasn't fully hit yet, what Japan's bombshell means for the bull case, and which catalysts could trigger the real cycle bottom before $50K comes into play.

Bitcoin sits near $60K in despondency with fresh buyers scarce and warnings of a quick move to $50K before $75K as sellers line up higher up. This candid roundtable examines the grinding bottoming process and tough psychology of buying when it feels bad, while unpacking why substantial new capital is needed to overcome layered selling. The group explores AI draining liquidity into Spacex IPOs even as it builds an agentic economy on stablecoins and blockchain rails for machine payments, Spacex's space data centers solving AI's energy woes, miners pivoting to lucrative AI/HPC or serving as flexible grid balancers, AI agents adding BTC to portfolios, resilient hash rates from sovereign players, ETF outflows mostly from hedge funds while core holders and banks accumulate, and banks launching competing stablecoin networks amid stalled regulatory clarity. Could high money velocity spark a fast recovery from this muted phase or is deeper capitulation still ahead? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
