In this episode, Nik sits down with Dr. André Dragosch of Bitwise to break down why large institutional capital is lining up behind Bitcoin heading into 2026. They explore ETF flows, treasury company demand, wirehouse adoption, & why Vanguard’s green light marks a major shift in access for traditional investors. André explains how global growth expectations, bond market stress, & falling confidence in sovereign debt are reshaping capital allocation, setting the stage for Bitcoin to push toward new all-time highs as long-term selling fades and institutional demand accelerates.
