Introduction

This episode is sponsored by NYDIG.

On today’s episode of “The Breakdown,” NLW looks at the market’s reaction to a new bitcoin all-time high, including:

• The success of the first day of the ProShares bitcoin futures exchange-traded fund 
• Why the ETF didn’t end up being a “buy the rumor, sell the news” event
• Why the new ATH is all the more impressive given the recent FUD and actions by the Chinese government 
• Why this ATH has some very different on-chain dynamics from previous ones
