Episode notes
Bitcoin's Reflexive Price Behavior
- Bitcoin's price behaves reflexively: higher prices reduce perceived risk, attracting larger capital pools.
- This increased investment further drives up the price, creating a cycle of growth and de-risking.
Bitcoin Impact Zone
- Public companies in the "Bitcoin impact zone" will benefit from Bitcoin's rising price.
- These include exchanges (Coinbase), miners (Hut8), crypto ETP providers (Defi Technologies), and Bitcoin treasury companies (MicroStrategy).
Cash is a Risky Asset
- Holding significant cash reserves in dollars is risky due to guaranteed value loss from inflation.
- Companies are increasingly considering Bitcoin as a way to protect their cash and potentially gain from its price appreciation.
