November 12, 2024 Building a U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve: A New Era in Bitcoin Policy
In this episode, Nik welcomes David Zell, co-founder of the Bitcoin Policy Institute, to analyze the shifting tides in Bitcoin policy and the regulatory challenges posed by Operation Choke Point 2.0. As the post-election landscape evolves, David shares what these changes mean for Bitcoin advocacy, the institute’s strategy with lawmakers, and the push for Ross Ulbricht’s freedom as part of broader policy shifts. He and Nik discuss a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR) as a priority for the new administration, its potential to align government incentives with Bitcoin’s growth, and the need for a de minimis exemption to simplify transactions.

November 12, 2024 The Math Behind Bitcoin's Move to $96,000
In this video, Nik discusses bitcoin's recent path to all-time highs as it surges above $85,000. Nik breaks down why his technical analysis points to $96,000 as the next major target. Bitcoin's exit from a $23,000 consolidation funnel has pushed its current market cap up to $1.5 trillion, and Nik dives into what it means for bitcoin to approach 2% of the value of total global equities. He also discusses traditional markets and explains why money market parity suggests potential upside to $300,000. Lastly, given this historic move, Nik also discusses halving cycles and probability-weighted targets to deliver a more comprehensive analysis.
