Rate Hike. War. Bitcoin Goes Up Anyway.

Bitcoin is climbing while the headlines point the other way: a Fed rate hike, war risk and fresh doubts about the AI trade. Why is Bitcoin rallying through it—and how much can one move really tell us?

This week, Joey and Len examine Bitcoin's strength against a difficult macro backdrop, the pressure higher rates put on markets, and whether the AI investment story is starting to show cracks. Is this lasting resilience, a temporary rebound, or a change in how investors see Bitcoin?

What is the strongest explanation for this rally—and what would change your mind?
