In this video, Joe gives an update on the slow and painful death of Ethereum. He walks through the ETH/BTC pair dropping below the critical 0.05 level, and explains that the downside target is zero over the next several years. With the narratives of ETH all dried up, it and other "crypto" are dying on the vine. The cherry on top is a $100-million sale of ETH from the Ethereum Foundation, a vote from the creators themselves that this is an asset on life support with a value prop that has been completely overtaken by Bitcoin.

In this episode, Nik recaps one of the most eventful few days for financial markets this decade.

He analyzes recent economic releases, discusses the volatility event and unwind of the Japanese yen carry trade, and carefully breaks down the price action from Tuesday's sharp, albeit partial, recovery.

In this episode, Joe and Nik sit down with Senator Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming for a detailed discussion of the United States' unsustainable debt problem, and how Bitcoin can help address it. Senator Lummis discusses the establishment of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR), how Bitcoin can strengthen the US dollar's position as the world reserve currency, the geographic distribution of the SBR's private keys, what Proof of Reserves for the SBR will look like, and how holding Bitcoin on the United States' balance sheet for 20 years can take our unsustainable debt situation, with $35 trillion in national debt at a 125% debt-to-GDP ratio, and potentially cut it in half.

In this video, Joe breaks down all of the mania surrounding bitcoin over the last 72 hours. He first discusses Trump's proposed Strategic National Bitcoin Stockpile, alongside Senator Cynthia Lummis' bill to create a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. He then breaks the news that the Biden-Harris administration has likely begun the sale of the US' existing bitcoin holdings, moving $2 billion into a new wallet for a likely OTC sale to thwart Trump's plans of a reserve using our existing seized BTC holdings. He then takes a look at bitcoin's price action being driven largely by leveraged trading, wanting to see spot accumulation before we have a solid chance at moving sustainably higher. He rounds out the video discussing the US National Debt hitting $35 trillion as of this morning, and why bitcoin offers a solution not just for the government, but for individuals looking to hedge themselves from the recklessness.

In this episode, Joe brings us a bitcoin update. We discuss bitcoin's resilience after the most eventful 2-week period in modern history, a remarkable $500-million inflow to BlackRock's bitcoin ETF on Monday, and more. He also discusses BlackRock and Fidelity taking 4th and 8th place in YTD inflows across all ETFs in US markets. With unprecedented demand from Wall Street and credit spreads still at cycle lows, all signals suggest that the bulk of bitcoin's bull run still has yet to begin.

In this video, Joe discusses bitcoin's 2.5% pop following Saturday's assassination attempt and tragedy, and the 11% gain in the days since. Trump has been an outwardly pro-bitcoin candidate, stressing the importance of bitcoin self-custody and mining as a way to bolster U.S. energy independence. He walks through all of the positive statements Trump has made about BTC on the campaign trail. He also discusses JD Vance, the Senator that Trump has chosen for VP, and his pro-bitcoin policies enacted while in office, as well as his own personal bitcoin holdings. We indicate that while we should be skeptical of politicians, JD has put his money where his mouth is. Joe concludes by highlighting that the strong performance of bitcoin following Saturday's events is a preview of the environment for bitcoin's price if we get another 4-year Trump term come November.

In this video, Joe walks through how bitcoin's 4-week 25% correction may be coming to a close. Despite Mt. Gox now redistributing 94,500 BTC, and the German government selling $21 billion in BTC over the weekend, bitcoin managed to spring off of the low-$50,000 level. Factors that have been headwinds for BTC over the last month are no longer hurting its market price, and after a 7.5% weekly drop, the 4th largest since FTX collapsed, bitcoin may have just set a local bottom for the remainder of the bull market.

In this episode, Joe walks through four important bitcoin charts before the long 4th of July weekend gets underway. He looks at ETF buyers re-entering the market after a 3-week slump, forecasting that bitcoin may be slated to break its consolidation. He suggests that BTC will likely resume its bull run due to the S&P 500 correlation with BTC dropping rapidly. He takes a look at BTC dominance relative to crypto to make the assertion that, judging by past cycles, the bulk of bitcoin's bull run is still on its way. Finally, he concludes with a look at performance of the S&P 500 in the second half of the year to determine how bitcoin will do. Subscribe and turn on notifications for TBL on YouTube.

In this episode, Joe walks through an action-packed day in macro. The CPI print for last month came in cooler than analyst estimates, led by the shelter component which saw its first monthly decline in 3 years. Following the cool CPI data, rate expectations fell and risk assets popped, but Powell was quick to temper dovish hopes with his press conference in the afternoon. Though the Fed is content with the path of inflation, it is not satisfied with the level still being well above its 2% target. It remains flexible, with its eye on developments in the labor market, into the end of the year. Joe wraps by talking about how asset prices will behave heading into the end of the year.
