Bitcoin's Divergence from Crypto with Travis Kling (RC#10)

G’day Folks,

Today I had the great pleasure of talking with Travis Kling from Ikigai Asset Management, and having a conversation that was long overdue. I have followed Travis for many years now, and he has no shortage of experience analysing, and observing how this weird market trades.

Way back in 2019, Ikigai prepared a repository of onchain analysis papers called Kana & Katana. Yours truly downloaded every single one of these as a PDF, printed them off at work, and read each of them over and over, absorbing what was at the time the cutting edge of onchain analysis.

My friends didn’t understand, but it felt very important…

In this conversation, we go down loads of rabbit holes, from the new American administration, to Bitcoins role as a macro asset, and the divergence between BTC and broader crypto. Travis has a keen eye for how the technological, social, and market dynamics of Bitcoin and crypto intersect, and the time of this podcast is no coincidence.

I think you’re really going to enjoy this one, and we managed to hit several of Travis’ famous one liners!
