This Crypto Town Hall session dives deep into the state of the crypto market, regulatory developments, and technological innovation on the Bitcoin blockchain.

The conversation also features an in-depth segment with guest Iago on Bitcoin OS, a new project bringing programmability and scalability to Bitcoin without changing the main chain. The discussion highlights the ongoing debate on the Bitcoin four-year cycle and its potential breakdown, market sentiment, and the growing role of institutions in the crypto space.

Bitcoin is bouncing after a brutal week of liquidations, ETF outflows, and panic across global markets but the macro picture is anything but stable. Stock futures are slipping, AI-bubble fears are spreading, Japan’s bond market shock is triggering a massive yen carry-trade unwind, and risk assets worldwide remain under heavy pressure. Bitcoin dropping into bear-market territory and ETFs seeing record $3B outflows has traders questioning whether this rebound is a true reversal or just a dead-cat bounce before more downside. In today’s show, we break down the latest data, the contagion risks, and whether Bitcoin can hold the line as global markets flash warning signs.

This Crypto Town Hall livestream dives into current Bitcoin market dynamics, debating whether Bitcoin is in a bear market, a sideways trend, or still part of a longer bull cycle. The panel, which includes traders, analysts, and industry participants, discusses technical indicators, macroeconomic liquidity, institutional adoption, tokenomics, and the psychology of market cycles. The primary goal is to cut through the noise and help listeners understand the multi-layered factors influencing Bitcoin and the wider digital asset market right now.

Markets are spiraling as Bitcoin crashes back into bear-market territory, erasing all of its 2025 gains and triggering more than $1.1B in liquidations while digital-asset products bleed another $2B in outflows. Analysts warn the extreme volatility and cascading liquidations resemble the conditions leading into past market breakdowns, raising the question: Is a modern “Black Monday” brewing for crypto and possibly equities? With weakening support flows, rising macro tension, and a spike in fear across derivatives markets, today we break down whether this is just another correction or the beginning of something much bigger.

In this in-depth interview, Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan breaks down why Bitcoin’s price has stalled near $100,000, the hidden sell wall created by early holders, and why he believes the real bull market is just getting started. We explore the ETF explosion reshaping crypto investing, how Solana’s staking ETF shocked Wall Street, and why The Clarity Act could ignite the next leg of the rally. Matt also reveals how tokenization, stablecoins, and self-regulation are driving institutional adoption and why Coinbase’s new ICO model might mark the true return of alt season.

The crypto market just saw over $1.1 billion in liquidations as volatility explodes across Bitcoin and major altcoins, triggering comparisons to the chaos of the FTX collapse.

Join us live as we analyze the data, market sentiment, and institutional flows to understand what comes next for crypto.
