Episode notes
Bitcoin Has Become A Macro Liquidity Play
- Bitcoin now trades like a macro liquidity asset rather than a crypto-native narrative play.
- Bill Barheit says institutional money expects liquidity in 2026 while retail is skeptical, creating a pricing divide.
BOJ Tightening Can Trigger Crypto Sell-Offs
- The Bank of Japan tightening has historically triggered large Bitcoin drops during past hikes.
- Barheit warns a December 19 BOJ move could provoke another leg down if retail panic resurfaces.
Prepare For Partial Liquidations And Buy Dips
- If you hold leveraged loans, expect partial liquidations in the 50s–60s BTC range rather than total wipeouts.
- Keep dry powder and buy the dips gradually instead of trying to time short-term volatility.
