About this episode
The episode discusses Bitcoin's recent price movement and the implications for investors as they face a critical decision point in the market.
Bitcoin has officially reclaimed $80K US, but are we back in the green for good or just walking head-first into a massive "Sell in May" trap? In this episode, Pav and Ted (who is currently busy spotting Broncos players and celebrities in Sydney) dive into why the market is pushing up while retail investors are still fast asleep. We’re breaking down the supply shock math: with ETFs scooping up $2.4 billion in a single month,and buying double the amount of Bitcoin being created. Plus, we’re looking at the $82K psychological "break-even" point for BlackRock buyers and why Pav thinks the next two weeks will be the ultimate "decision point" for the market. Also, Ted shares why seeing a classic 60% pump as officially the "grossest" thing in crypto right now. You’ll hear: - Why the vibe feels completely different now than the "scary" price action we saw back in February. - Is May is destined to be a double-digit red month? - How monthly demand is crashing into a supply of new Bitcoin per month. - Why the BlackRock "break-even" price is about to trigger some serious programmatic moves. - "Gross" Alts pulling 300% moves while no one is watching. … and much more! Want to see what we’re…
