This episode of Fill the Gap features Javier Pineda, CMT, an institutional portfolio manager and author, discussing how technical analysis applies to cryptocurrency markets and the evolution of crypto as an asset class. Javier explains the importance of understanding cycles in Bitcoin, including halving events, bull and bear markets, and the concept of dominance, while noting that institutional adoption and macroeconomic factors now play a larger role than before.

The conversation covers the challenges of aggregating volume and pricing data across decentralized and centralized exchanges, as well as the risks and opportunities in altcoins, emphasizing the need to focus on robust projects with strong communities. Finally, Javier addresses concerns about quantum computing threatening blockchain security, reassuring listeners that current technology is far from capable of breaking Bitcoin’s cryptography and that future upgrades can further enhance security.

Fill the Gap, hosted by David Lundgren, CMT, CFA and Tyler Wood, CMT brings veteran market analysts and money managers onto a monthly podcast.
