Episode notes
Hosts' Early Calls Paid Off
- Avi and Jonah reminisced about calling ETH and Aave bottoms and urging listeners to take profits during the rally.
- Their early calls delivered big gains but highlighted the need to rebuy after shakeouts.
Rate Cuts Fuel Crypto Rally
- Macro rate cuts are massively bullish for crypto because they unlock trillions from low-yield T-bills into risky assets like Bitcoin and ETH.
- Jackson Hole signaled a dovish shift that likely begins a prolonged downward interest-rate cycle supporting risk assets.
Ride Volatility, Sell Into Strength
- Don't try to time small macro moves; sit and ride volatility instead of overtrading around a possible cutting cycle.
- Sell into strength rather than trying to pair positions during frothy market conditions.
