The Impact of Index Design on Cryptocurrency Performance
This chapter explores the design dynamics of cryptocurrency indexes and their impact on underperforming assets, known as ghost chains. It emphasizes the importance of strategic filtering to enhance asset quality and the evolution of the crypto market favoring stronger, more sustainable cryptocurrencies.
In today’s episode, we sit down with Bitwise’s Matt Hougan and Ryan Rasmussen to unpack why Bitcoin is outperforming everything, including gold and the S&P 500, despite macro chaos. We also get into Circle’s IPO, and why stablecoins might literally save the U.S. economy.
