Episode notes
Bitcoin Building A Strong Base
- Mel Mattison sees Bitcoin setting up for a roughly 50% move higher and a strong base around the $100k range.
- He argues recent consolidation is healthy after large moves and institutional buyers are stepping in to absorb supply.
Uncertainty Is A Sentiment Soup
- Mel calls current macro uncertainty (shutdowns, tariffs, Fed) a sentiment soup but says markets keep chugging higher.
- He highlights dollar stabilization and institutional flows as forces putting a floor under assets.
Focus On Structural Risks
- Mel says clarity on bumps (shutdowns, tariffs) matters more than any single outcome for markets.
- He recommends focusing on structural risks like an AI collapse or a major political swing, not routine noise.
