Bitcoin Is About To BREAKOUT To $80,000
In this video, Joe walks through several bitcoin charts to make the case that we're breaking out and moving to and through new all-time highs. He discusses some price action technical analysis, the descending channel bitcoin is trying to break above, the momentum that BTC has built underneath it, and the solid launchpad to take off from with very little froth in the futures market. He concludes with the dismal macro data of late, and how that will impact BTC and other risk throughout the year.

Global Macro Update: Bitcoin Thrives When US Manipulates Dollar
In this episode, Nik brings us a global macro update focused on the US government's grand manipulation of the dollar. Nik argues that although the dollar index oscillates, the major theme of introducing dollar liquidity/supply to suppress its value continues to drive asset prices, including Treasuries, stocks, gold, and of course, bitcoin. Join us for an in-depth discussion of the US fiscal picture, tax receipts, interest expense, debt-to-GDP, asset returns, and a global monetary reset.

Could The United States BUY BITCOIN?
In this video, Joe walks through bombshell developments last week in the political sphere surrounding bitcoin. He discusses the announcement that Donald Trump is reportedly considering bitcoin to address the U.S.' $35-trillion debt problem. He also breaks down the U.S. debt problem and why it has become so unsustainable, showing the trajectory of our debt growth and providing an analogy for viewers to better understand it. He discusses how this would be the first instance of a G20 nation purchasing bitcoin for its reserves, and why it would pave the way for a tidal wave of other nations to follow suit.

Washington Goes PRO-CRYPTO: BTC SURGES, ETH ETFs
In today's video, Joe discusses the latest developments in bitcoin and the broader ecosystem. In the last 24 hours, the SEC has pivoted from not approving a spot Ethereum ETF to fast-tracking its approval, causing Ethereum to jump 20% and ETH/BTC to move above 0.05. He discusses how the House and Senate are now majorly pro-crypto, passing 3 separate bills in the last 10 days in support of the ecosystem. Finally, Joe wraps it all up with a look at bitcoin's bull flag breakout, signaling a bull market continuation if we can get past this brief consolidation period near $70,000.

Global Macro Update: Bitcoin Soars as CPI Falls
In this episode, Nik delivers a global macro update after CPI misses expectations and bitcoin jumps over 5%. He starts with the latest inflation data and weighs policy motivations at the Federal Reserve. After recapping inflation and very poor retail sales data, Nik goes through the candlesticks of Treasuries, stocks, and bitcoin to measure the market's reaction, which is bullish due to the promise of more liquidity and rate cuts this year. He also notes that TBL is on recession watch and Ethereum death watch.
