About this episode

Ryan and Mike discuss the current state of Bitcoin's bear market and the potential for one more lower low.

Bitcoin may be 80% through its bear market, but the bottom still isn’t confirmed. Ryan and Mike unpack weak demand, rising macro pressure, the risk of one more lower low, and why $63K and $73K now matter most. ---- 🎯THE DEFI REPORT | FOLLOW & SUBSCRIBE https://thedefireport.cc/tdr-rss https://thedefireport.io/friends https://thedefireport.transistor.fm/ https://x.com/the_defi_report https://x.com/JustDeauIt ---- TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Intro 3:27 Fair Value and Capitulation 8:10 Time-Based Selloff 13:07 Searching for Demand 16:13 Miners Under Pressure 18:45 Strategy and Saylor 21:25 Iran and Oil Risk 28:28 AI Speculation Peaks 34:06 Macro or On-Chain? 37:04 Bitcoin Levels to Watch 41:25 TDR Updates and Outlook ---- Not financial or tax advice.
