Bitcoin Is REVOLUTIONIZING Energy Consumption Worldwide

In this episode, Nik answers a question from the audience about bitcoin's purpose on our hectic financial world. We present the case for bitcoin as a tool for wealth preservation. By comparing bitcoin to money, currency, commodities, properties, and assets, we conclude that bitcoin's most valuable characteristic is helping people achieve deflation in a highly inflationary world. Nik discusses bitcoin and equity correlation, $100 trillion in global bank assets, and presents incredible charts on assets priced in BTC.

Bitcoin Preserves Wealth

In this video, Joe walks through why bitcoin did not break above the low-$70,000 range despite having the setup for it. He talks about what's next for bitcoin as it approaches a key support level called Short-Term Holder Realized Price (STHRP). STHRP has served both as a floor for bitcoin to bounce off of during prior bull runs, but also as confirmation of a downtrend if bitcoin makes a sustained moved below it.

Bitcoin Mining MASTERCLASS: Miner Revenue, Economics, & Integrating AI with Drew Armstrong

In this episode, Joe walks through an action-packed day in macro. The CPI print for last month came in cooler than analyst estimates, led by the shelter component which saw its first monthly decline in 3 years. Following the cool CPI data, rate expectations fell and risk assets popped, but Powell was quick to temper dovish hopes with his press conference in the afternoon. Though the Fed is content with the path of inflation, it is not satisfied with the level still being well above its 2% target. It remains flexible, with its eye on developments in the labor market, into the end of the year. Joe wraps by talking about how asset prices will behave heading into the end of the year.
