BITCOIN PUMPING: Fed Cuts, Liquidity, & The Next Breakout

In this episode, Nik breaks down Bitcoin’s strong start to October and what the latest pump means in the context of global macro. He explains how falling policy rates, Treasury yields, and dollar weakness are shaping liquidity conditions and risk markets. Nik highlights why correlations between Bitcoin and stocks matter, what average hourly earnings signal about inflation risk, and how the Fed’s shift from restrictive to accommodative policy will impact the next leg higher. The update also covers TBL Liquidity, our proprietary framework for measuring Bitcoin’s macro drivers, and why liquidity cycles outperform in the short run but adoption remains the long-term force behind Bitcoin.
