Nasdaq vs. Bitcoin: Surviving the 200-Day Breakdown

About this episode

The episode discusses the implications of the Nasdaq's 200-day moving average breakdown and its historical parallels with Bitcoin and market psychology.

The Nasdaq just broke its 200-day moving average. In 2022, that was the signal for a 35% collapse. Is history repeating? Mike and Ryan dive into the "Complacency Trap," why the war in Iran is actually a strategic play for China鈥檚 oil, and the onchain data suggesting Bitcoin hasn't hit "Deep Value" yet. They also break down the 2022 analog, the 6.4% mortgage rate reality, and why the "Trump Prize" won't save the markets this time. ---- 馃摚GALAXY | INSTITUTIONAL DIGITAL FINANCE https://bankless.cc/Galaxy ---- 馃幆THE DEFI REPORT | FOLLOW & SUBSCRIBE https://thedefireport.io/friends https://thedefireport.transistor.fm/ https://thedefireport.io/ https://x.com/the_defi_report https://x.com/JustDeauIt ---- TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Intro 1:43 Market Complacency & The War in Iran 7:45 Geopolitical Implications of Oil 10:04 The US-China Connection 13:26 Lessons from 2022 16:44 On-Chain Bitcoin Insights 22:14 Risk Asset Market Psychology 26:33 ETF Inflows and Market Health 28:54 Bitcoin Price Targets 32:44 TDR Portfolio Update 33:56 Patience in Bear Markets 36:28 Closing & Disclaimers ---- Not financial or tax advice.
