Crypto Market Update: The 1% That Will Change the World


Listen Later

In this episode, Michael Prendiville reacts to the Running Out Of Narratives article by Brent Donnelly, alongside co-host Matt Blackwell, as they break down the latest crypto market conditions with Bitcoin hovering near key levels amid weak sentiment and tightening global liquidity. The discussion challenges the idea that crypto is failing, arguing instead that digital assets remain an emerging financial infrastructure rather than a mature asset class. Topics include Bitcoin as digital gold, fixed supply vs “infinite Bitcoin,” volatility, institutional demand, and why only a small fraction of projects truly matter. The episode also explores stablecoins, tokenisation, and the shift toward programmable money.
