Episode notes
Crash Possibly Preplanned By Insiders
- Nico Moran and Optimist Fields propose Friday's flash crash may have been triggered by an insider-timed short ahead of Trump's tariff post.
- They argue institutional actors are now shaping price moves and can execute market-clearing leverage purges.
Institutions Changed Cycle Dynamics
- Hosts observe institutions changed cycle dynamics: less parabolic runs, more muted drawdowns.
- They link this to ETF-driven institutional demand altering volatility and price structure.
Protect Holdings With Self-Custody
- Do keep your Bitcoin in cold storage to avoid exchange freezes and liquidation risk during market shocks.
- Avoid leveraged positions on altcoins because sudden institutional-driven purges can wipe them out.
