Bitcoin & Markets

In this episode I go over the bitcoin price movements over the last week and hit on the big news items of the week. The first news item is the China's complete U-turn into blockchain. Next I discuss the doxxing of customers by Bitmex, Coinbase's unscheduled downtime and the wide fluctuations caused in the market. Lastly, I discuss why we are seeing a pull back in the bitcoin mining hash rate.

After months of building bearish indicators, the Bitcoin price finally broke down. We called this correctly and are now sowing the seeds of the bullish move. I talk about lots of price things, good things about Bitcoin infrastructure, including traditional type products and lightning network. This community has been waiting to stack sats at the appropriate time, and we are going to be ready for the resumption of the bull market.

I'm back with a brand new episode of Bitcoin & Markets. Today I focus on bitcoin mining with the hashrate exploding and overnight repos from the Fed with liquidity drying up around the world. Of course, I give my predictions on price and opinions on the Bitcoin market as a whole. Love you listener. Consider supporting us on Patreon if you like the content.

Things are slowing down in the Bitcoin market. Price has recovered, but too a hit today. We continue in the consolidation pattern. News items are interesting this week. I mentioned several on my free newsletter, but in the podcast I speak about malware using information from bitcoin transactions, lightning network vulnerability, JP Morgan on stablecoins with negative yields, and the $1 billion transaction we saw yesterday.

An excerpt taken from our member live stream. I was asked about money as a belief system and I laid out my argument for why that's incorrect. Through out the 90 min live stream I was asked repeatedly about it, so I cut them all out and posted here.

The bitcoin price dropped this week as we've been talking about for several weeks. Will it continue down to the ultimate $8500 target? We discuss that, the overall state of the market including development on Lightning and on Bitcoin's consensus layer. I give you a blast from the past when discussing altcoins. We wrap up with a discussion about the Bill Dudley's Fed comments in a Bloomberg op-ed.

I'm back with a great bitcoin episode, discussing price and a bearish contrarian take. The mining and developement in bitcoin. Lastly, I buzz around and give you some great news items you might not find on another podcast, including analysis of the Fed's Powell speech today from Jackson Hole.
