Show Notes
On today's episode, Alex and Andrew dig into the current macro situation and debate the 'Milkshake Theory" that the US dollar sucks all liquidity from other currencies (Cue Daniel Day Lewis: "I drink your milkshake! I drink it up!"). Right now, global currencies are collapsing as the US dollar steamrolls its way across the globe. Financial conditions are as tight now as in March 2020. In U.S. dollar terms Bitcoin is down but for global traders pricing in their local currency, the situation looks better. Still storm clouds are raging and the water level is rising. Will the levy break? Also, they dig into how enterprise adoption of public blockchains is likely to accelerate post-Ethereum merge, and how that will impact the investment case for Ethereum and others.
