FedWatch 150 - Front Running Wall Street

Hosts: Ansel Lindner and Christian Keroles Watch this Episode: YouTube  ||  Rumble  Fed Watch is a macro podcast with a clear contrarian thesis of a deflationary breakdown of the financial system leading to bitcoin adoption. We question narratives and schools of thought, and try to form new understanding. Each episode we use current events to question mainstream and bitcoin narratives across the globe, with an emphasis on central banks and currencies.  Find all charts and links at bitcoinandmarkets.com/fed150 In this episode, Nolan and I discuss all the big news items of the week having to do with central banks and bitcoin. Blackrock's Bitcoin ETF chances are still top of the list in Bitcoin news. We watch a couple clips of guys who know what they are talking about, Elliot Johnson of EBIT and James Seyffart of Bloomberg. Everything is aligning. Next, we discussion MicroStategy (MSTR) and their recent bitcoin buy, then get into the North Carolina bill to study adding Bitcoin to their State balance sheet. We take a look at some bitcoin charts, all pressing up on resistance, looking very bullish. Lastly, we tackle the CBDC debate. The BIS report we covered last week has been the driver of a lot of CBDC speculation this week. On twitter, I tried to debunk it and triggered George Gammon. Bottom line is CBDCs are not going to become a global "unified ledger." All their claims and rhetoric is reminiscent of the ICO white papers circa 2016. In the whole BIS paper they didn't mention "consensus" once, which is a pretty big deal if you talking about a global, cross-border, sovereignty limiting, ledger. This shows that they are just writing down fantasies like all those ICOs that came before. None of what the BIS proposes is actually viable. Thanks for joining us!

FedWatch 149 - Bitcoin Pump vs CBDC Obsession

Hosts: Ansel Lindner and Christian Keroles Watch this Episode: YouTube  ||  Rumble  Fed Watch is a macro podcast with a clear contrarian thesis of a deflationary breakdown of the financial system leading to bitcoin adoption. We question narratives and schools of thought, and try to form new understanding. Each episode we use current events to question mainstream and bitcoin narratives across the globe, with an emphasis on central banks and currencies.  Find all charts and links at bitcoinandmarkets.com/fed149 In this episode, Nolan and I discuss all the big news items of the week having to do with central banks and bitcoin. We start by talking about Bitcoin ETFs and the tidal wave of filings, we bring Producer Chris in to give his perspective as well, what it means for bitcoin. Next, we watch a couple Jerome Powell clips from his testimony in front of Congress, specifically his comments on "crypto" and CBDCs. At the end of the show, we discuss the collapse of the Chinese yuan (CNY) and what it can tell us about the state of, not only the Chinese economy, but also the global economy. In our Bitcoin ETF discussion, we hit on the curious timing of the Blackrock filing in relation to the SEC action against Coinbase and Binance, we speculate on the timing of any approval, its likelihood, and the whole Blackrock versus Grayscale debate. The CBDC discussion is an interesting one. Federal Reserve Chairman Powell was testifying in front of Congress and said very bluntly, they are not pursuing a retail CBDC. He did say, if they were to pursue a CBDC, which they are not at this time, it would be a wholesale type CBDC. The IMF managing director Kristalina Georgievahe came out the same day saying, the IMF is still, "working hard on the concept of a global CBDC platform," conflicting with earlier statements only a couple months ago said, "we think that wholesale CBDCs can be put in place with fairly little space for undesirable surprises, whereas retail CBDCs completely transform the financial system in a way that we don’t quite know what consequences it could bring." Next, on the CBDC front, we cover the arrest of Central Bank of Nigeria Governor Godwin Emefiele, the designer behind the country's war on cash and disastrous CBDC rollout. We end the episode by looking into the Chinese yuan and discuss what we can learn about the current state of the global economy and what a failing China means going forward. Thanks for joining us!

FedWatch 148 - Fed Messaging Blunder “Hawkish Pause”

Hosts: Ansel Lindner and Christian Keroles Watch this Episode: YouTube  ||  Rumble  Fed Watch is a macro podcast with a clear contrarian thesis of a deflationary breakdown of the financial system leading to bitcoin adoption. We question narratives and schools of thought, and try to form new understanding. Each episode we use current events to question mainstream and bitcoin narratives across the globe, with an emphasis on central banks and currencies.  Find all charts and links at bitcoinandmarkets.com/fed148 In this episode, Nolan and I discuss all the big news items of the week having to do with central banks and bitcoin. We hit on the bitcoin price, the SEC drama, Federal Reserve's policy decision from the FOMC by watching and reacting to a couple clips, and then finishing up with the European Central Bank who is hiking rates in a recession. The clips of JPow included 3 questions by financial reporters. There was a common theme developing, which I was trying to emphasize, that Powell was making a big messaging blunder. They held rates steady, but signaled higher rates by end of the year. The question is simple, if it looks like you will have to keep raising, why not just do it now? Next, Nolan and I get into a lively debate about the SEC and "crypto". I try to tie everything back to bitcoin and the price. Nolan has valuable experience in the area, but when he says that they can't register, I have to take the other side of that one. The SEC is never going to let a snake oil salesmen register. If the exchanges would have remained bitcoin-only as prescribed by bitcoiners as early as 2011, and altcoins were deemed securities as early as 2014, the exchanges could register easily today. Lastly, we cover the ECB's rate hike in a recession. They even signaled further rate hikes. If the Fed made a messaging error causing the loss of confidence, the ECB has made a monumental blunder that could be the beginning of the end for the Eurozone. Thanks for joining us!
