2:00
today big day in crypto another
2:03
sat stack and Saturday. This is
2:05
podcast episode number 1608
2:08
I'm your host JV. It's April 13th 2024
2:12
and Bitcoin just corrected $5,000
2:15
in the past 24 hours. It
2:17
is dropping However a great opportunity
2:19
pre having to be stacking em
2:21
sats take advantage of that stack
2:24
and Saturday Just saying let's
2:26
kick it off with our market watch
2:28
as we do each and every day
2:30
checking out coin 360 as
2:32
you can see let me refresh this just
2:34
to make sure it's the latest numbers I'm
2:37
gonna refresh coin market cap comm as well.
2:39
So here we go according to coin 360
2:42
bitcoins still above sixty four thousand eight hundred
2:44
only down four percent of the day and
2:46
according to this ethers trading
2:49
Just above three thousand down six
2:51
percent and the alts can you
2:53
say rec city? massive beaten XRP
2:55
down to 48 cents like whoa
2:57
and Checking out coin
2:59
market cap comm holy moly the market cap
3:01
shed a lot We're sitting at a two
3:03
point two nine trillion market cap with 110
3:05
billion in volume for the past 24 hours
3:08
But look at that Bitcoin dominance. It's
3:10
up several percent on the day all
3:12
the way up to 55 percent now
3:15
this happens I think it's when the
3:17
alts especially the ish coins such as
3:19
the mean coins a lot of the
3:21
coins with no utility Kind of go
3:24
crazy They need to be humbled and
3:26
that's what happened Bitcoin takes the market
3:28
dominance from them via a correction Bitcoin
3:30
Maintains itself while the alts continue
3:32
to get wrecked heavily. You
3:34
have the ether dominance also at 16%
3:37
even my question for y'all How high do
3:39
you think that Bitcoin dominance will likely climb
3:41
to the cycle? I'll let you boy I
3:44
think 60% plus is a given personally Maybe
3:46
we go as high as 70% time will
3:48
tell and check it out the top one
3:50
hundo crypto gainers for the past 24 hours
3:53
Virtually not a except stable
3:55
coins actually doing anything in
3:58
the green because virtually everything is
4:00
bleeding and in the red. So instead of the top
4:02
gainers, here are the top losers for the past 24
4:04
hours. We got 40,
4:07
go figure, Pepe and EOS all down
4:09
between 25 and 28%. And
4:13
checking out crypto bubbles. Oh, can you
4:16
say blood bath? There's literally
4:18
nothing in the top 100 in the green. That
4:21
means every single thing is bleeding. Substantial
4:24
losses family. This is just on the day. Stacks down
4:26
17%, bonks down 22%, sand down 25%, Pepe down 25%,
4:29
Orte down 29%. Pretty
4:37
scary. And checking out the monthly,
4:39
it's not much better. So
4:41
yeah, you can see, I personally feel
4:43
we had an alt season in the
4:45
past six months and a
4:47
lot of these alts have been
4:49
mooning, but now, again, Bitcoin's humbling
4:51
them. And checking out the crypto
4:53
green and fear index. We're currently rated a 72 greed yesterday,
4:55
79 extreme greed last week, 75 and last month in
5:01
88 and extreme greed. We always watch
5:03
this metric because the higher we get. So
5:05
for example, yesterday we hit a size of
5:07
79 and guess what? Today
5:09
major corrections. So the higher this gets,
5:11
the more likely of a correction and
5:13
checking out the Bitcoin having countdown. Here's
5:15
the silver lining. 25
5:17
days left until Bitcoin
5:19
having 2024 scheduled to
5:22
take place April 19th. And look at the
5:24
block. We've surpassed 839,000 as soon as we hit 840,000, which means what?
5:31
953 more blocks. We're
5:33
going to hit the infamous halving of 2024 and
5:35
checking out the time chain calendar
5:37
shows you the block we're currently
5:40
at. It shows you Bitcoin's market
5:42
caps and pretty at 1.23 trillion.
5:45
And you can currently trade $1 for 1,598 satoshis. So
5:51
take advantage of it here on Satsap and
5:53
Saturday while you still can. And let me
5:55
know where you feel that Bitcoin price will
5:57
likely take us leading into the halving roughly.
6:00
five days out.
6:02
Anyways fam, let's kick it off with
6:04
a little bit of TA and check
6:06
out some of the charts and why
6:09
there is mass carnage in the market.
6:11
Headline here is Bitcoin dominance hits three
6:13
year high as Bitcoin price bit pressures
6:15
the altcoins and as I mentioned earlier
6:18
we hit 55% Bitcoin dominance.
6:20
That's right, Bitcoin's market cap dom
6:22
has hit its largest level in
6:25
three years. Whoa, Nelly, that's like
6:27
a thousand days as alt field
6:29
renewed price pressure. That's what happens family
6:32
and according to this data, crypto market
6:34
cap spiked and even hit as high
6:36
as 56% to 3% and that was
6:38
yesterday, April 12th, today
6:42
being the 13th. So the Bitcoin
6:44
price action suffered into the weekend
6:46
with a liquidation cascade bringing Bitcoin
6:48
currently in the 62,000 range.
6:51
That's right, we dipped even thousands
6:53
more here in the past what
6:56
20 minutes since going live, crazy
6:58
right? Altcoins face much worse conditions
7:00
according to data. Many of the top 20
7:02
cryptos by market cap sell more than 15%.
7:05
That's right, can you say
7:07
rec city? Quoting analyst
7:10
here, I do typically or don't
7:12
typically look at the Bitcoin dominance
7:14
but the chart is impressive considering
7:16
the amount of new alts birthed
7:18
into the market every day. That
7:20
was according to Bagsy, crypto trader
7:22
and also we have Dan crypto trades among
7:24
those noticed in the difference in the drawdown
7:26
between Bitcoin and the alts in the recent
7:29
days, quoting him here, yes, the
7:31
actual hit on Bitcoin was very minimal
7:33
and the total downside also wasn't very
7:35
relevant. The real damage was done in
7:37
the altcoin sector, which wiped out billions
7:39
of open interest and made for Wix
7:41
up to 50% as
7:45
outlined here in the Bitcoin market
7:47
cap dominance chart brought to you
7:49
by TradingView. Now alt season hopes
7:51
to stay in play, that's right,
7:53
Bitcoin bull market historically tends to
7:55
see a dominance breakout in the
7:57
early stages with alt then catch
8:00
an end. once Bitcoin sees a
8:02
period of prolonged consolidation. So far
8:04
this year, altcoins, while performing very
8:06
well, have not witnessed such conditions
8:08
for a meaningful length of time,
8:10
forecasting what comes next, fellow trader
8:14
Mikey Bull. Crypto argued
8:16
that the change would soon come,
8:18
quoting him here, altcoins market cap
8:20
is perfectly following the previous alt
8:22
season's debt. This is the last
8:24
shake off before it rips explosively
8:26
upward coupled with Bitcoin dominance downtrend
8:29
downward trend. So there you go. And this
8:31
chart you can see in your screen compares
8:34
Bitcoin and the alt dominance drawing comparisons with
8:36
the end of 2020, the
8:39
point at which Bitcoin's price had
8:41
escaped its previous macro trading range
8:43
below $20,000. Let's
8:48
dive into our next story of the day. Keep
8:50
the comments flowing greatly appreciated. Lots
8:52
of liquidations, Joe. And this story was
8:55
published before I went live. And again,
8:57
we just liquidated probably a tremendous amount
8:59
more. But nonetheless, here's the gist of
9:01
what's happening. Currently, the value of the
9:04
crypto market is approximately, it was 2.4
9:06
trillion a few hours ago,
9:08
but let's actually look on coin market cap right
9:10
now it's only 2.2 trillion. Look
9:13
how fast those trillies are
9:15
dropping. This is pretty insane.
9:18
But anyways, I digress. Let's go
9:20
back here. Following a 7.4% decrease
9:23
over the last day, the volume
9:25
of the global crypto trade surged
9:27
36% Friday reaching 114 billion.
9:30
And before 8am on Friday, Bitcoin was
9:32
trading above 70 g's baby.
9:34
And it briefly jumped above 71,000 during
9:37
the early morning trading sessions.
9:40
However, Bora resistance quickly emerged
9:42
causing the price to falter
9:44
and subsequently fall sharply at
9:46
2pm. Look at that. There you
9:48
go. The one hour candle at 2pm recorded a drop
9:50
to a low of 65,000 per bitty.
9:53
The price managed to record a
9:55
slight rebound from this low and
9:57
it's currently trying to claim 62,
9:59
63, we're another $5,000
10:01
down since the time of this article.
10:04
That's how fast we've been dropping,
10:06
yo. It's crazy. Quoting analyst Vinny
10:08
here, if Bitcoin can't hold $60,000 by
10:10
Monday morning, this bull run is
10:13
probably over. Now we have about, what,
10:15
a day and a half until Monday
10:17
morning, and right now we're trying to
10:19
hold on to $60,000. We're
10:21
currently $61,000, $62,000, so time will tell. Bitcoin
10:25
is down tremendously over the day, falling
10:27
against the US dollar over the past
10:29
month, the market volatility on Friday, further
10:32
led to a notable number of liquidations
10:34
among crypto traders using leverage.
10:37
Can't stress to
10:39
proceed with caution, extreme caution,
10:41
especially at around the time
10:43
of having trading with leveraged
10:45
fam. It's crazy. Around
10:48
275,000 crypto traders experienced liquidations,
10:50
ouch, virtually all of them,
10:52
with total losses approaching $1
10:55
billion. That was before
10:57
dropping an additional 5,000 families, so these
10:59
numbers are probably even way higher. So
11:01
according to data from CoinGlass at 4
11:03
p.m. Eastern time, 871 million in
11:05
leveraged positions were
11:08
liquidated in 24 hours, including 782 million from long
11:10
positions and 91 million from
11:15
short positions. Shout out to
11:17
GrandBuck. I greatly appreciate the super.
11:19
He wrote, just keep the faith.
11:22
Sage advice there, that's all
11:24
you got to do because one Bitcoin's still
11:26
equivalent to one Bitcoin regardless of where the
11:28
Bitcoin price temporarily goes in fiat terms family.
11:30
Don't forget it, and thank you GrandBuck. While
11:33
the global average price of Bitcoin is currently back down
11:35
to 62,000, Bitcoin still
11:37
trades at a premium in South Korea.
11:39
Of course, it's trading at a premium
11:41
all around the world. Australia,
11:44
I know, we hit 100,000 all-time high. The
11:47
UK. So anyways, we're going
11:49
to keep an eye out on what's happening and
11:52
of course, the latest news as it
11:54
comes in developing. But let's just keep the
11:56
news afloat and I appreciate the comments. Let's
11:58
dive into the latest with these big news.
12:00
Bitcoin ETFs headline reads,
12:02
GBTC sees 166 million
12:05
outflow despite the CEO's equilibrium
12:07
remark what's going on Mr.
12:09
Sunnenshine. The grayscale Bitcoin ETF
12:12
GBTC continues to experience significant
12:14
outflows with over 166
12:17
million and more than 2500 biddies
12:19
withdrawn from the funds holdings on
12:21
Friday, April 12th which
12:23
was yesterday. According to Far Side
12:26
Investor data, outflows from GBTC have
12:28
exceeded 16.2 billion. Good
12:30
Lord! Since the Bitcoin ETFs January launch,
12:32
that was January 11th, three months ago,
12:34
since the month of April, the daily
12:36
outflows from the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust have
12:38
been fluctuating between 75 million and 300
12:40
million. On
12:43
the other hand, inflows into Bitcoin
12:45
ETFs have been minimal, indicating declining
12:47
investor engagement. GBTC recorded significant
12:49
outflows of 767 million this week, contributing to
12:51
overall negative
12:55
flows into the Bitcoin ETFs.
12:58
Now BlackRock has maintained strong
13:00
support as assets under management
13:02
for iBit. Bitcoin's ETF exceed
13:04
$15 billion,
13:06
narrowing the gap with Grayscale's
13:09
Bitcoin Reserve. A significant portion
13:11
of GBTC outflows has likely
13:13
flowed back into BlackRock. Now
13:16
Grayscale CEO Michael Sunenshine hinted
13:18
earlier in the week that
13:21
outflows from Grayscale's Bitcoin Trust
13:23
might be stabilizing. Keyword might
13:25
be, because they're not, suggesting
13:28
optimism amongst traders and investors.
13:30
However, current data indicates the
13:32
current situation may not align
13:34
with his optimism, unfortunately. One
13:36
primary reason behind the massive
13:38
GBTC outflows has been the
13:40
high management fee, the fund
13:42
charges. However, Sunenshine has been
13:44
hesitant to cut the fees,
13:46
despite losing the flows to
13:48
competitors. GBTC has the highest
13:50
management fees out of all US Bitcoin
13:52
ETFs, pinned at 1.5% a year, compared
13:56
to the 0.3% average
13:58
of its competitors. So yeah,
14:00
it's like five, six times more
14:02
fees. So hence why so many
14:05
investors are ditching GBTC. Why wouldn't
14:07
they change that fee sooner than
14:09
later? Do you have any
14:11
insights with that chat? Let me know.
14:13
Sunn and Shy noted that markets often
14:16
exhibit high excitement when commodity exposure
14:18
products like grayscales Bitcoin Trust
14:20
versus the merch. However, these
14:22
products mature as time passes,
14:24
leading the market consolidation as
14:26
investors focus on few offerings.
14:28
Now, according to Farside data, GBTC
14:31
saw outflows of almost 18 million
14:33
on April 10th, a significant decrease
14:35
from 155 million outflows
14:38
recorded April 9th, good Lord. The
14:40
previous low was February 26th when
14:43
GBTC out flowed 22.4 million and
14:46
the daily GBTC outflows average across the
14:48
four months is more than a quarter
14:50
billion at 257 million. GBTC
14:54
launched in 2015 and converted
14:56
to an ETF on January
14:58
alongside the launch of the nine other spot
15:00
Bitcoin ETFs after grayscale won the
15:02
lawsuit against the SEC, forcing
15:05
it to review a GBTC
15:07
conversion bid it denied. Now
15:09
bankrupt crypto lending firm Genesis
15:11
recently offloaded approximately 36 million
15:14
GBTC shares to acquire 32,000
15:16
Bitcoins. So
15:19
there you have it, fam definitely not
15:22
helping the market when you
15:24
have all of these outflows. But according
15:26
to Sunn and Shy, we're seeing an equilibrium but
15:28
maybe you spoke a little too soon, so we'll
15:30
see. Something let's not forget though, GBTC
15:33
was the largest hodler of Bitcoin in the
15:35
world. They had like 620,000 plus Bitcoin, but
15:39
since the ETF launch and their conversion, they're
15:41
now down to like 200 and something thousand.
15:43
So I think BlackRock now has more Bitcoin
15:45
at 270,000, which
15:48
we're gonna be diving into here in a
15:50
bit. But anyways, we discussed Bitcoin ETFs from
15:52
the outflows of GBTC. That
15:54
was focused on the king BlackRock,
15:57
acquiring 270,000 Bitties. like
16:00
it ain't no thing. Headline reads, 10.5 trillion
16:03
asset manager BlackRock's spot Bitcoin
16:05
ETF now holds 270,000 bitcoins.
16:09
BlackRock released its financial results
16:11
on Friday for the first
16:13
quarter that ended March 31st,
16:15
showing a record 10.5 trillion in
16:17
assets under management, an increase of
16:19
1.4 trillion from the previous year.
16:22
The asset manager spot Bitcoin itself,
16:24
the iShares Bitcoin trust, maintain the
16:26
dominant position in the US spot
16:28
Bitcoin ETF market, and as of
16:30
April 11th, iBits Bitcoin holdings put it
16:32
approximately 270,000 Bitcoin with a notional
16:36
value of over $18.9 billion.
16:40
Now Larry Fink, CEO of
16:42
BlackRock recently said that
16:44
iBit is the fastest growing ETF
16:47
in the history of ETFs. He
16:49
added that he is very bullish
16:51
on the long term viability of
16:53
Bitcoin and is pleasantly surprised by
16:56
the retail demand for BlackRock's spot
16:58
Bitcoin ETF. In fact, last week
17:00
BlackRock filed an amendment to its
17:02
iBit prospectus, revealing that the fund
17:05
now has nine authorized participants. They
17:07
are ABN AMRO Clearing USA Citadel
17:09
Securities, City Group Global Markets, Goldman
17:12
Sachs, Jane Street Capital, JP Morgan
17:14
Securities, we have
17:16
Macare Capital, UBS Securities, and
17:18
Virtu America. BlackRock also filed
17:21
an app with the US
17:23
SEC to launch a spot
17:25
Ether ETF, despite some optimism
17:27
surrounding potential SEC approval of
17:30
spot Ether ETF apps by
17:32
May's deadline. Skepticism continues to
17:34
grow. Jan van Eck, CEO
17:36
of Van Eck, recently expressed
17:39
his doubts, anticipating the rejection
17:41
of his application in May
17:43
from his firm. Moreover, there are
17:45
reports the SEC may be trying
17:47
to classify Ether as a
17:50
security. Fink, however, believes that even
17:52
if Ether is classified as a
17:54
security, BlackRock can still launch a
17:56
spot Ether ETF. In
17:58
fact, Thursday, Financial Technology
18:00
Firm, a stablecoin provider circle,
18:03
introduced smart contract capabilities aimed
18:05
at enabling holders of BlackRock
18:07
USD Institutional Digital Liquidity
18:09
Fund to exchange their shares for
18:11
USDC Through circle. Now here's
18:13
one thing I don't trust That's
18:15
USDC aka circle because their enemies a
18:18
Bitcoin at least Larry Fink though once
18:20
clearly an enemy of Bitcoin publicly He
18:22
once bashed it and said it was
18:24
an index for money laundering at
18:27
least now He's all on board claiming
18:29
it's a flight to safety or a
18:31
flight to quality and he's
18:33
now pumping our bags So I mean we
18:35
had the opportunity to front run mr. Lawrence
18:37
Fink and BlackRock and all of Wall Street
18:40
and it feels damn good I'm just saying
18:50
Now we all know Bitcoin is the best
18:52
asset Do
18:55
you agree you agree There
18:58
is no second best asset But
19:01
anyways fam next story of the day Let's
19:04
discuss this breaking news coming out of China
19:06
with these ETFs actually Hong Kong so in
19:08
the outskirts of China Not that mainland but
19:10
close enough. Here we go headline
19:13
reads China is about to start its
19:15
bidding Well, Hong Kong's Bitcoin ETF spark
19:17
the having rally. Let's break it down
19:19
Shall we the potential approval the first
19:21
batch of the spot? ETFs in
19:23
Hong Kong could be a big
19:25
catalyst for bitcoins having rally. That's
19:27
right The securities regulator Commission, which
19:29
is the SFC over there in
19:32
Hong Kong could approve the first batch of the
19:34
spot Bitcoin details by April 15th, which would be
19:37
a few days right before the having is that
19:39
a coincidence? I think
19:41
not the Hong Kong regulator had
19:43
reportedly Accelerated the approval process for
19:45
for spot Bitcoin ETFs According to
19:48
local news media reports the potential
19:50
approval could attract more buying demand
19:52
for Bitcoin By
19:54
offering Bitcoin exposure to both retail
19:56
and institutional investors over there in
19:58
Hong Kong now Hong Kong Hong
20:01
Kong regulators could approve both Bitcoin
20:03
and Ethereum ETFs on April 15th,
20:05
according to a crypto entrepreneur and
20:07
investor, Lark Davis, who wrote the
20:10
following, Hong Kong likely to approve
20:12
both Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs
20:14
as soon as Monday. China
20:17
is about to start bidding the same
20:19
week the Bitcoin halving is happening. Let's
20:21
go. It'll take approximately two
20:24
weeks to finalize ETF listing procedures
20:26
on the Hong Kong stock exchange
20:28
after the securities regulator green lights
20:30
the initial set of spot Bitcoin ETFs.
20:33
Now the approval of the first spot
20:35
Bitcoin ETFs in Hong Kong could catalyze
20:38
Bitcoin's post halving rally, according to Herbert
20:40
Sim, chief operating officer of crypto exchange
20:42
WebC, who told Cointelegraph the following, halving
20:44
is not the only thing to look
20:47
out for in the price action, but
20:49
rather the upcoming Bitcoin ETF approval in
20:51
Hong Kong, which also happens next week.
20:54
The big banks of China will all
20:56
have to start buying Bitcoin themselves too.
20:58
Let the bidding begin. Sim
21:00
noted that Hong Kong based ETFs will
21:02
only add to the institutional demand and
21:05
inflows created by large US ETF issuers
21:07
such as BlackRock, which he expects to
21:09
continue, including him here. And
21:12
with this supply cut from the Bitcoin
21:14
halving, the prices will definitely soar, send
21:16
it. Large investors or so-called mega
21:18
whales that are holding at least 10,000 biddies
21:21
are accumulating Bitcoin at the current
21:24
price level in anticipation of next
21:26
week's approval. According to popular crypto
21:28
commentator, Bitcoin mongers, April 12th
21:30
post, quoting him here, the only
21:33
cohort that is net accumulating Bitcoin
21:35
is the largest whales just ahead
21:37
of Hong Kong ETF approvals and
21:40
the Bitcoin halving, a positive contrarian
21:42
signal if I had to
21:44
guess. Meanwhile, the ETF inflows have been
21:47
a significant part of the Bitcoin price
21:49
rally by February 15th. Bitcoin
21:51
ETFs accounted for about 75% of
21:53
new investment in Bitcoin as it surpassed the
21:56
50,000 mark and Bitcoin's price action has
21:58
been closely correlated. With the net
22:01
Bitcoin ETF inflows, according to Thomas
22:03
Fairer, co-founder of Apollo, who wrote
22:05
the following, I would have thought
22:07
it was extremely obvious that ETF
22:09
flows are driving the Bitcoin price.
22:12
So there you have it, my
22:14
crypto fam. Let me know your
22:16
thoughts how the market will likely
22:18
react to these ETFs being launched
22:21
potentially in Hong Kong
22:23
here soon. And yeah,
22:25
and do you think they will
22:27
approve both spot Bitcoin and Ethereum
22:30
collectively at the same time? Hala.
22:33
In that chat. Now for our future
22:35
story of the day, eh? Let's discuss
22:37
BlackRock and Fidelity. The ETF bombshell triggering
22:40
a massive $75 trillion Bitcoin
22:43
prediction. Obviously that's
22:45
not price action, that's market cap. But
22:47
to hit a $75 trillion market cap,
22:49
we're talking $3.8 million Bitcoin price. According
22:54
to ARK Invest, it's Cathie Wood. So let's
22:56
break this down. This was actually a Forbes
22:58
article a couple of weeks ago, and I want
23:01
to rehash this because this is actually pretty insightful. You
23:03
know what I mean? The Bitcoin price added around 350%
23:05
since crashing to a low of $15,000 per Bitcoin. I'm
23:10
curious how many of you actually
23:13
bought some biddies back when we tapped $15,000
23:15
just over a
23:17
year ago, fam. Feels like yesterday.
23:19
Largely thanks to a fleet of
23:22
the Bitcoin ETFs taking Wall Street
23:24
by storm. Now after Coinbase revealed
23:26
it's backing BlackRock's $5 trillion by
23:28
2030 game changer, famed
23:31
stock picker and Bitcoin bull Cathie Wood
23:33
has hiked their Bitcoin price prediction. Betting
23:35
a coming Bitcoin price surge will give
23:38
Bitcoin a market cap of $75 trillion
23:42
by the end of the decade. Let's go back to
23:44
coin market cap and check out Bitcoin's market
23:46
cap right now and in the flesh, the
23:48
market cap of Bitcoin today, right? $1.2
23:52
trillion. So
23:54
with Bitcoin having a $1.2
23:56
trillion market cap, what
23:58
is that? Roughly a $7 trillion. 70X
24:00
right from the current Market
24:03
cap 70X from here. Can you
24:05
see that? Please do let me know because you know
24:07
the price was sore Crazily
24:09
on that quoting her here
24:11
last year. We put out our bull case
24:13
for Bitcoin. It was 1.5 million dollars Said
24:17
would chief executive of disruptive technology investor
24:20
arc and she said that on stage
24:22
at the New York Bitcoin investor day
24:24
conference When it was reported by Business
24:26
Insider quoting her again with this Institutional
24:30
green light that the SEC has provided
24:33
kicking and screaming though It
24:35
did the analysis we have done is that
24:37
if? Institutional investors would allocate
24:39
a little more than 5% of
24:41
their portfolios in Bitcoin as we
24:44
think they will over time that
24:46
alone would add 2.3 million dollars
24:48
to the projection I just
24:50
gave you so would said referring to the
24:52
US SEC waving through
24:55
almost a dozen spot Bitcoin ETFs in
24:58
January, that's just based off 5% Allocation
25:02
from these institutions Let's not forget
25:04
BlackRock a few years back released
25:06
the report or a study and
25:08
I covered it numerous times on
25:10
the channel That their ideal Bitcoin
25:13
Allocation for a portfolio is
25:15
eighty four point nine percent
25:18
I'm not even gonna speculate what that
25:20
would mean for the Bitcoin price action
25:22
But you can use your imagination family
25:25
now Wall Street Giants BlackRock and Fidelity
25:27
have emerged as the two largest of
25:29
the new Bitcoin ETF issuers raking in
25:31
assets under management of around 15 billion
25:34
and 9 billion respectively And
25:36
now it's way higher
25:38
just FYI This was as of a
25:41
few weeks ago would own arc 21
25:43
shares of for Bitcoin ETF now hold
25:46
40,000 biddies worth two billion dollars
25:49
on behalf of Investors woods new
25:51
Bitcoin price prediction could see Bitcoin
25:53
hitting three point eight million by
25:55
20 36
25:58
years family. Can you see it? a massive near
26:00
6000% increase from
26:03
the current Bitcoin price and a
26:05
market cap of 1.2 trillion, which
26:08
ironically is precisely where we're at
26:10
today, quoting her again, we think
26:13
Bitcoin has miles to go. We're
26:15
at the very beginning of really
26:17
putting in place the financial ecosystem
26:19
native to the internet and disintermediating
26:22
all the toll takers. So there
26:24
you go. Now, after a period
26:27
of huge growth following their launch,
26:29
the new spot Bitcoin ETFs, including
26:31
Grayskills coveted trust saw outflows over
26:33
four straight days. Yeah, I mean,
26:35
outflows have not been slowing down.
26:37
But as we already touched upon, Michael
26:39
Sunenshine, the CEO of BlackRock says things
26:41
are going to be at an equilibrium,
26:43
but we'll soon see. But
26:46
let me know your thoughts specifically
26:48
here regarding Bitcoin tapping a 75
26:51
trillion market cap within the next
26:53
six years. And ideally,
26:56
off of that, hitting a
26:58
price of 3.8 million
27:00
per coin. Now, I remember when Cathie Wood
27:03
first made her prediction of Bitcoin hit in
27:05
a million by 2030, then she opted, we
27:07
all knew her bear scenario, her base case,
27:09
and her bull case, and she keeps up
27:12
in the bull case. And I'm
27:14
digging it. Shout out Cathie
27:16
Wood, right? She's just expressing
27:18
her bullishness because I think
27:20
they underestimated the Bitcoin ETF
27:22
demand. And I think the
27:25
demand shock, which is
27:27
unprecedented in any market, meaning
27:29
the Bitcoin success from
27:31
the Bitcoin ETF inflows has been
27:33
unlike anything we've ever witnessed in
27:35
the history of ETF launches. And
27:38
I think because of that, they're even
27:40
that much more bullish and just a
27:42
very modest allocation into Bitcoin from these
27:44
major asset managers is
27:47
a big move, right? Major moves, just
27:51
5% allocation. We're talking about $3.8 million
27:53
Bitcoin, 75 trillion market cap. That's
27:57
a lot of money. I know a lot of people are going to spell it. But
28:00
is that is that even possible? Well,
28:02
yeah, there's roughly I hear now 900
28:06
trillion dollars worth of The
28:09
total addressable market meaning all the money
28:11
in the world, right and Bitcoin is
28:13
the apex predator So where will these
28:16
billionaires and institutions likely park their capital?
28:18
Shout out to Ricky Norwood appreciate the
28:20
sub likely into Bitcoin because there is
28:22
no second best, right? I shared a
28:25
graph I'm actually gonna pull it up
28:27
because it's very insightful. I shared it
28:29
in yesterday's podcast. I want to cover
28:31
this with you I'm gonna pull it
28:34
up over on X. I
28:36
just got to find it So bear with me a second here.
28:38
And if you're not following me on X, what are
28:40
you doing with your life? Make sure to follow me
28:42
on X. I appreciate it We currently got thirty three
28:45
point eight thousand followers and I would love to have
28:47
a hundred thousand followers Here's the chart
28:49
check it out. I replied to
28:51
Peter Schiff on this one. I got a lot of
28:53
love Peter Schiff wrote gold is now above 2400
28:56
what's happening is not normal gold doesn't
28:58
typically move like this especially on no
29:00
news if this means the Zarpqe
29:03
and deficit spending chickens are finally
29:05
coming home to roost the magnitude
29:08
and velocity of these gains And
29:12
he got over a half a million
29:14
views so I responded one second here $1
29:18
invested into Bitcoin or gold in 2009
29:21
is now worth that one dollar in Bitcoin
29:23
is now worth 91 million and that one
29:25
dollar in gold again 14
29:27
and a half years ago is now worth
29:30
two dollars. So was that tell us that
29:32
means gold Doubled in
29:34
price it doubled in
29:36
value in almost 15 years big
29:39
whoop Bitcoin 91
29:41
million percent increase
29:45
$1 turns into 91 million and this is a
29:47
chart I got from a Willie Wu the on-chain
29:49
analyst Shout out Willie Wu. I mean
29:51
pass the tail of the tape right there
29:53
and actually wrote something about it as well
29:55
I'm gonna read to you because I just
29:57
want to share my thoughts on after I
29:59
analyze that myself here. Let
30:02
me just pull this up. So this is what
30:04
I wrote. I don't understand gold bugs who
30:06
think gold is a viable store of value. Yes
30:09
gold is up 2x in the past
30:11
14 and a half years, meaning if you invested
30:13
$1 into gold in January 2009,
30:15
today it would be worth a whopping
30:17
2 bucks. Ultimately meaning gold can't even
30:19
keep up with inflation. Meanwhile, if you
30:22
invested just a dollar into Bitcoin in
30:24
January of 2009, your $1 investment into
30:26
Bitcoin would now be worth $91 million.
30:32
Plus, let's not forget, corrupt governments
30:34
can and will seize your gold
30:37
as history has shown us. So
30:39
when it comes down to the
30:41
ultimate store of value, there is
30:43
no second best. Bitcoin
30:46
is king. Let me know if you agree
30:48
or disagree with that sentiment. I firmly believe
30:50
it. Where else are you gonna park your
30:52
cash? There is no second best store
30:55
value. There's Bitcoin, Bitcoin
30:57
and Bitcoin. Bitcoin and
31:00
Bitcoin. Just saying. But let
31:02
me know your thoughts surrounding all these predictions I
31:04
just shared with you. 75 trillion market cap, 3.8
31:08
million dollar Bitcoin by the year 2030 as
31:10
per ARK Invest's Cathy Wood. Holla.
