Episode notes
Why Bitcoin Disappointed In 2025
- Bitcoin underperformed in 2025 because expectations outpaced reality and global stability reduced demand for a chaos hedge.
- Institutional products and covered-call strategies fragmented capital and suppressed Bitcoin's volatility and upside.
Lower Risk Means Lower Expected Returns
- Bitcoin's risk profile has fallen as adoption and regulatory certainty increased, so expected returns should decline over time.
- Pompliano still holds Bitcoin and forecasts steady multi-decade value despite lower asymmetry.
Bullish, But More Moderate Bitcoin Outlook
- Pompliano expects Bitcoin to continue appreciating at a lower but healthy rate, perhaps 25–40% CAGR over the next decade contingent on macro and geopolitics.
- He argues Bitcoin's role hasn't changed, but the broader world and available asset choices have.
