Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Bitcoin Market Correction & Sentiment

• Live Price Analysis:

  • Bitcoin experienced a swift drop from nearly $90,000 to around $85,000, with fears of an even deeper correction (“REC city across the board...We're currently barely holding on to 85,000. Looks like we're likely to go lower.”) [00:52]
  • The broader crypto market is also down, with alts like Ether and Solana retracing sharply.

• Volatility Context:

  • Compared to previous years, a 4-5% Bitcoin correction is less dramatic in percentage, but more impactful in dollar terms due to the higher price base:
    • “Back in the day, 10-15% corrections were typical. Now we get 4%, and everyone panics.” [04:30]

• Market Fear Levels:

  • Greed and Fear Index hit 26 (“extreme fear”). [03:39]

---

2. Allegations of Manipulation & Suppressed Price Action

• Theory of Single Entity Suppression:

  • The host asserts that “a single bitcoin entity is keeping the bitcoin price suppressed right now below 90,000” using “liquidity hurting” strategies, possibly for options expiry or to fill large bids cheap (“I'm a firm believer there's manipulation going on...Anytime we make a clean break above 90, it's like insta cement shoes.”) [06:29]
  • Quote: “Fire charts showed the Bitcoin price being suppressed by one entity using a liquidity hurting strategy to push the price lower.” [07:04]

• Whale Activity & Buy Walls:

  • Key bid liquidity building at $85–$87K by whales is expected to provide support. Falling below the 2026 open level ($87.5K) is seen as “the gateway to Barad” (“not looking good...the bottom countdown continues”). [08:13]

---

3. Bitcoin vs. Gold: Scarcity, Supply Dynamics, and Store of Value

• Gold’s Recent Breakout:

  • Gold’s market cap adds more value in a single day than Bitcoin's entire capitalization, hitting all-time highs above $5,300/oz:
    • “Gold just going parabolic at the moment...gold has relative scarcity...Bitcoin has a finite hard limited cap of 21 million making it the most scarce asset in the world.” [09:53–11:27]

• Monetary Fundamentals:

  • Gold’s annual supply increases 1-2%, but Bitcoin’s issuance is fixed and tapers over time (via halvings).
  • “As of January, bitcoin was only 4% of gold’s $41 trillion...very positive. It goes to show you Bitcoin’s potential because I am a firm believer that Bitcoin will overtake gold’s market cap, only a matter of time.” [12:54]

• Potential Inflows from Gold:

  • Even a 5% rotation from gold to Bitcoin could imply a price target of $192K.
    • “A 5% rotation from gold to Bitcoin equals over 2 trillion of inflows...price target of 192Gs just based on current valuation.” [14:16]

---

4. Bitcoin Block Space Wars: ZK Rollups & Stablecoins

• Citria ZK Rollup Launch:
  • Launch of a Bitcoin-adjacent zero-knowledge rollup (Citria), aimed at unlocking DeFi on Bitcoin, spurs debate on “what should scarce Bitcoin block space actually be used for?” [15:17]
    • Some believe non-payment use cases (like stablecoins, DeFi) are crucial for miner fee dynamics in the halved-reward era.
    • Jameson Lopp referred to Citria’s launch as “the next grand experiment in generating sustainable demand for the block space.”
    • Skepticism remains: Critics argue most activity is not on the core BTC chain, but adjacent networks—turning Bitcoin into “a filing cabinet for rollup receipts.” [16:00]

---

5. Corporate Bitcoin Adoption: Meta Planet and Strive

• Meta Planet’s $137M Capital Raise [18:27]:

  • Japanese-listed firm Meta Planet to use proceeds mainly for more BTC purchases and partial debt repayment.
  • Now holds 35,102 BTC—4th largest corporate holder—with a balance sheet strategy mirroring MicroStrategy’s, dubbed the "Saylor put."
  • “Meta Planet also reiterated its positioning as a bitcoin treasury company, citing Bitcoin scarcity and portability as reasons to hold it as a medium to long-term store of value.” [20:05]

• Strive’s Debt Reduction & Treasury Build:

  • Strive, having acquired similar scientific, bought 334 more Bitcoin, retired 92% of inherited debt, and now holds over 13,000 BTC.
    • “Strive is now a top 10 corporate Bitcoin treasury company....More than 190 publicly traded companies hold the biddy on the balance sheet, collectively owning 1.134 million BTC—5.4% of supply.” [22:26–24:40]
  • Acknowledgement of volatility risk: “Many saw their shares tumble as the sustainability of such strategies was called into question.”

6. Feature Story: Samson Mow’s $100K Omega Candle Prediction

• Omega Candle Concept:

  • Definition: A daily move of $100K (“the coveted Omega candle”)—a parabolic, face-melting event.
  • Samson Mow's Endorsement:
    • “Samson said: 'I know faces will melt.' This could cause the bitcoin price rise significantly surpassing 200,000 once the candle hits.” [26:59–27:30]
    • Has long predicted a $1M Bitcoin, originally tipping 2024 as the target amid ETF approval and the having.
    • Strong, ongoing optimism: “Ma remains optimistic that bitcoin will hit a million mark soon. Just a matter of time.” [28:55]

• Memorable Moment:

  • Quote, Samson Mow (@Excellion):
    • “I know faces will melt.” [26:59]

Tone, Style & Takeaways

• Tone: Raw, energetic, and characteristically bullish with heavy meme/crypto slang.
• Purpose: To break down major Bitcoin events and outlooks in plain, passionate language for the maximalist crowd.
• Main Takeaway: Despite the ongoing correction and momentary pain, the hosts—and industry leaders like Samson Mow—remain solidly bullish. The convergence of institutional/corporate adoption, gold’s rally, and looming technical events (potential “Omega candle”) could spark a volatile, face-melting Bitcoin rally.

We'll also be taking a look at the overall crypto market. All this plus so much more right here in today's show. Today is Pod Episode 2227. I'm your host JV alongside Fed Chair Nipinator and as you can see big correction right now in real time. We're currently barely holding on to 85 000. Looks like we're likely to go lower. We'll be discussing what's happening right now in the markets as we always do. So without further ado, let's kick it off with the market watch pulling up coin 360 blood red for some of the alts right now including ether trading all the way back down to 2800 Salana down 5%. I mean REC city across the board bitcoin. The damage is roughly 5% on the day. It's crazy because we were just at practically 90,000 yesterday. Just goes to show you the volatility in the market and there's definitely something suppressing the price which we're going to get into here shortly. Stay tuned. Checking out coinmarcap.com you'll notice the crypto market cap has fallen back under 3 trillion. Today it's 2.98 trillion. And you want to know what's insane? Gold is adding more value than the entire bitcoin market cap in a singular day. That's right. The market cap for bitcoin right now is 1.75 trillion. Gold added 1.75 trillion. It just goes to show you when the boomers start moving from gold to bitcoin, we're going to blow up. It's only a matter of time. It's inevitable but it's pretty wild. But checking out top 100 crypto gainers past 24 hours stable lead in the pack. Then we got Pax gold and tether gold again. Gold has been breaking out hitting new all time highs. I know we surpassed 50, $300 an ounce just yesterday.

[B]

I'm not sure if it went up since then.

[A]

Checking out the crypto greed and fear index today is a 26. Fear yesterday 29. Last week at 20 and last month at 23.

[B]

Extreme fear.

[A]

Checking out time chain calendar.

[B]

Today is block height 934, 242. And you can exchange one fiat monopoly dollar for 1173 SATs. You know precisely what to do. You pick up the SATs, put down the gats, pick up some bitcoin caps from a man Sergio over at Bitcoin caps net.

[A]

Right yo, here we go. Let's dive into some of the live charts. We'll do a little live chart action. Jackson Satisfaction and unfortunately look at those red candles. Oh my God. This is on the daily. We just drop again. We're at the low right now of 85 on the day. We're about to break below it the way we're dropping. But we did get a little relief candle right when we bottomed out.

[B]

I guess we hit already 84.

[A]

7. So we did break 85 before bouncing above 85 and now we're about to go back down. Another candle forming unfortunately checking out the four hour massive decimation and it's crazy. It's only 4%. I remember in the the back in the old days it was like 10:15, correction. It was just like typical. Now we get a 4% correction like oh my God, Bitcoin's down $4,000 on the day. But yeah, also bigger picture, it's worth 85,000. So it's not, we're not talking about a 5,000 or 10,000 or $20,000 asset.

[B]

The game has changed, the landscape has changed.

[A]

So we got to keep that in mind as well. We've come a long way show checking out the daily a big ass red candle and you know what's up. We just had three consecutive green candles. You know FOMC meeting yesterday. Fed chair. There was a lot of excitement and bullishness leading into it. And then post FOMC doomsday.

[B]

I mean look at this.

[A]

I mean pretty wild. We're below the moving averages right now. Continuing to freefall. Checking out the weekly. Today's Thursday. We get a weekly close in three days. Thus far it looks like we're going to get another red weekly close unless we get a strong bounce. And last week we closed in the red unfortunately as well. And zooming it out for the month as we're obviously about to put a bow. Only two days left for the month of January, the first month of the year and thus far in the red. So if we don't bounce at least a few grand from here, we're going to get a red close to start off the new year. That's a little depressing considering we already had three consecutive bare months for all.

[B]

Of the fourth quarter of last year.

[A]

Starting with October, November, December. And I was hoping we get the Janu Bull.

[B]

It started out that way but now it's turning into the Janu bear unfortunately. I blame Peter Schiff, you know, gotta blame someone. JP Morgan, Jamie diamond, take that. But yeah, there's the latest.

[A]

Now check this out. We'll do a little TA here.

[B]

Single bitcoin entity is keeping a price suppressed.

[A]

I am a firm believer there's manipulation going on.

[B]

Something is keeping the price action suppressed.

[A]

Because why is everything else breaking out.

[B]

As far as like precious metals and other things against the dollar. But bitcoin continues to correct. Anytime we make a clean break above 90 it's like insta cement shoes. And we cracked again. So what's really going on? Let's discuss it. Bitcoin at the gateway to paradise. I've never even heard this term before because we're so bullish. Usually so but anyways trading view shows.

[A]

Here on the one hour chart.

[B]

I already gave you some live price action Jackson, but I'll read you the analysis. Fire chart showed the Bitcoin price being suppressed by one entity using a liquidity hurting strategy to push the price lower, potentially to get their own bids filled or possibly to keep the price pinned in the lower ends of the range before the Friday options expiry which occurs yo tomorrow. Material indicators, proprietary trading tools covering liquidations at the key nearby levels as well as the whale order form and as noted, large volume entities are known to influence the price action using liquidity to make a peter shift, trapping the less experienced traders in the process. Quoting analysts here, a significant amount of bid liquidity is concentrating at the 85.87 range to strengthen, support and potentially provide a foundation for the bounce before the monthly close and obviously we drop below that here today. He warned that close in January below the 2026 open level of 87. Five would serve as the gateway to Barad. So ultimately he's saying not looking good right now because we're a few grand below that level and we only got two days left for the month of January. So WOFF Bitcoin bottom countdown continues.

[A]

An analyst at 86 is the buying walls currently provided by the whales. And again we just broke below 86. The gap between the buy and the sell walls is a narrowing volatility.

[B]

Is it coming?

[A]

Woff Analysis Marty Party to predict the Bitcoin would put in a long term.

[B]

Low around the end of the month.

[A]

This could see Bitcoin a dip below 8Gs, an event that would act as the WOF spring event before dramatic market turnaround. So ultimately projecting a bottom at the end of this month, potentially below 80 and then February. Today's episode of Bitcoin News Alerts is brought to you by Progressive Insurance.

[B]

Coming days as outlined here.

[A]

Spring like Tigger Bounce.

[B]

The rest is history.

[A]

But anyways fam, let's continue knocking out the bitty news. We do got a lot to share here today. Bitcoin versus gold. The key differences that could position the bitcoin for the big rally and I believe the gold market cap just surpassed 35 trillion the other day when it broke out above 5,300. Yo. It's pretty wild. But yeah, check out this chart. This is Bitcoin USD versus Gold USD. And as you can see, gold just going parabolic at the moment, which is pretty wild. Bitcoin's issuance does not respond to the higher prices like gold. The protocol releases new bitcoin on a fixed schedule which tapers over time through the havings which we know as the Bitcoin having event and a hard 21 million supply cap. Thank God for that. Miners can add the machines or switch them off, but they cannot change how many coins the network issues. The problem with gold as long term treasury asset it lacks a difficulty adjustment and having. That's a good point. There's nowhere near the same level of scarcity. My opinion, gold has relative scarcity, which.

[B]

Means yeah, it's not everywhere. But they can always invest more into discovering more. And that's precisely what they do. Bitcoin has a finite hard limited cap of 21 million making it the most scarce asset in the world. And on top of that there's a having where the mining rewards get chopped in half every four years. So take that this guy wrote here. Gold's annual supply grows 1 to 2%. That means they discover 1 to 2% more gold every year.

[A]

But its massive existing stocks give it.

[B]

A high stock to flow, ultimately derivatives as well. Centuries of trust, broad demand, jewelry bank.

[A]

Central bank reserves, industry tether and deep.

[B]

Liquidity support its price.

[A]

Bitcoin fixed supply.

[B]

Yet the price demands more on demand, liquidity and risk premia. It is early in adoption, more volatile, sensitive to the macro liquidity.

[A]

Gold can outperform at times not because of supply, but because the market value.

[B]

Stability and the utility alongside the scarcity. Gold production has increased over the past 25 years from 2300 tons in 1995 to 3500 tons by 2018. According to the World Gold Council. It reached a record high of 3,672 tons in 2025. And at the end of 2025, 93% of all the bitcoin had already been mined which its annual inflation rate at around 8% it could drop to 4% after the next bitcoin having in March of 2028 according to the data as outlined here. You can see the bitcoin inflation rate per year now. As of January, the bitcoin worth was only 4% of gold. 41 trillion. Oh my God. So gold has hit almost 42 trillion market cap. You know what, that's very positive. It goes to show you Bitcoin's potential because I am a firm believer that Bitcoin will overtake gold's market cap only a matter of time because it's so much more superior as a store of value and a hedge against deflation, hyperinflation and debasement of the dollar.

[A]

You know, if investors already buy gold.

[B]

For hard asset exposure due to the.

[A]

Currency hedging, geopolitical risk or long term.

[B]

Purchasing power protection, Bitcoin can still attract marginal allocation. Bitcoin only needs a modest share of gold style demand to rotate into the bitty. According to Jeff Walton, chief risk officer at Strive, the Bitcoin Treasury Company.

[A]

As he wrote here, in the last five days silver and gold combined have.

[B]

Increased 6.5 trillion in market cap. That's more than double of all of crypto and it increased in 5 days.

[A]

The change is equivalent to 3.5x the entire market cap of Bitcoin.

[B]

Equivalent to increasing 14 million Bitcoin per day for the last 5 days straight. If any capital rotation even sniffs out the tiniest bit of interest in digital scarcity, the market cap scale can tip rapidly. And this is a great example of.

[A]

How fast that can flow into the prelo biddy. So yeah, and with a smaller market cap that marginal demand can translate into the larger percentage move. Theoretically a 5% rotation from gold to Bitcoin equals over 2 trillion of inflows, implying 116% upside in the bitcoin market cap and a price target of 192 GS just based on the current valuation.

[B]

And if you don't know now you know.

[A]

Yeah, let's continue yo next headline it says Citria ZK Roll Up Launch Reignites Bitcoin Block Space Debate Founders Funding Galaxy Ventures Back Bitcoin zero knowledge Roll up better known as ZK Roll Up. Citria launched its main net on Taco Tuesday with Bitcoin collateral lending, Bitcoin structured products and a new US dollar stablecoin called CT USD Isn't it crazy how many stable coins are popping up left and right? They understand it's a big market and everyone wants to tap into it. Obviously right? The launch is aimed at turning what Citria calls economically idle Bitcoin into base collateral for the D5 and payments, while anchoring more of that activity to Bitcoin's base layer. The team expects active defi liquidity to reach 50 million in the first few weeks. With Bitcoin lending, Bitcoin structured products and.

[B]

Decentralized trading already live from day one, the main net debut immediately dropped Citria.

[A]

Into a familiar Bitcoin argument.

[B]

What should scarce Bitcoin block space actually be used for? With the block rewards declining over time, developers see non payment use cases like Citria as essential to sustaining the minor fee revenue.

[A]

However, purists argue the Bitcoin limited capacity.

[B]

Should be reserved for simple censorship resistant payments rather than complex fee financial systems built on top. Now more on this stablecoin CTUSD. It's issued by MoonPay regulated crypto payments infrastructure company that provides fiat on and off ramps for digital assets back one to one like others by cash and short term US Treasuries and marketed as a compliance forward alternative to wrap tether or wrapped USDC that circulate on the Bitcoin adjacent stacks. Interesting. The setup includes a banking grade rail such as virtual international bank account numbers allowing users to wire in fiat that is automatically converted into the CT USD and settled on chain. So there's the latest there. Now why CT USD's native design matters? Because CIA is the Bitcoin application layer anchored to the Bitcoin security model. So ctusd inherits the security properties of the CIA network itself. That reduces risk of inherent which is inherent in other DEFI protocols since bridge assets inherit the security risk of their weakest link. And he added that the CT USD may be natively issued, we safe from external bridge hacks and not dependent on solvency of the third party wrapping protocol. Citria launch reignites the block space wars Bitcoin core developer and CASA chief Jameson Lop called the roll out the next grand experiment and generating sustainable demand for the block space. One follower pointed out that CIA users are not literally lending, trading and settling on the bitcoin network as described, but on C's Ethereum virtual machine with Bitcoin only storing the proof, effectively turning Bitcoin into a filing cabinet for the rollup receipts. He pointed that CIA's single sequencer, offchain, treasury and 10 party federation today's episode.

Next story we'll discuss Meta Planet approves 137 million overseas raised to buy more Bitcoin to repay the debt that's right, Tokyo listed bitcoin focused company Meta Planet Konichiwa approved an overseas capital raise of as much as 137 million, combining new common shares of stock acquisition rights as it looks to expand its bitcoin holdings and reduce the debt. In the filing today, Metaplan has said it plans to issue 24 and a half million common shares at 499 Japanese yen per share, raising 12 billion yen.

[B]

Which is 78 million USD up front.

[A]

It also approved the issuance of 159,000 stock acquisition rights representing up to 16 million additional shares, which could raise about 56 million if exercised. The warrants give investors the option to buy the shares later at a fixed price above the current market level, but only over the next year. Both the shares and the warrants will be sold privately to overseas investors, subject to routine closing conditions, according to the filing. Meta Planet Bitcoin Strategy Director Dylan Lir said the structure was designed to raise capital while managing dilution to the financing structure enables Meta Planet to capitalize upon the volatility of its common stock to sell the shares at a premium to.

[B]

Market while raising the capital today. Now in the purpose section of the filing, Metap Planet said the proceeds from the offering are allocated primarily to additional BTC purchases, investments in his bitcoin income business and a partial repayment of borrowings under the existing credit facility.

[A]

The company said the debt repayment was intended to restore its borrowing capacity and preserve flexibility to for the future capital actions.

[B]

Meta Planet also reiterated its positioning as a bitcoin treasury company, citing Bitcoin scarcity and portability as reasons to hold it as a medium to long term store of value. The company remains the fourth largest corporate bitcoin holder globally, according to the Bitcoin Treasuries. Meta Planet holds 35,102 BTC, worth more than $3 billion at the time of this live stream. The latest capital raise builds on Meta Planet's recent efforts to diversify its funding to sources beyond the common equity, combining shares, warrants and preferred instruments to tap overseas investors Sounds aer similar to strategy and what Michael Sailor is doing. This is called the Sailor put and on December 22 the company cleared the issuance of the dividend pay and prefer shares for overseas institutions, expanding its capital raising toolkit. The move marked a shift towards using multiple capital instruments alongside its Bitcoin focused balance sheet strategy. The new filing also follows a separate disclosure on Monday in which the company just lifted its 2026 revenue outlook despite booking a large non cash bitcoin impairment.

[A]

We're going to continue with the Corporate Adoption Strive Buys 334 Bitcoin Shaving Most debt from the similar scientific deal and I think this is Ram Sawani's company. Let's see. Yeah it is Bitcoin treasury company Strive said it retired 92 of the debt it inherited after acquiring Similar Scientific earlier in the month, bought another 333.9 bitcoin following the closure of the preferred stock offering. Strive said Wednesday that it saw 600 million in demand for its valuable or variable rate Series A perpetual preferred stock trading under SAA and had upsized its Target raised from 150 million to 225 million in response. The stock offering is a form of long duration equity financing designed to fund the bitcoin accumulation without increasing leverage. Vivic Strive back Strive finalized its acquisition of the former Bitcoin treasury company similar back on January 13, so a couple weeks back agreeing to a merger in September or maybe it was the prior year there and then earlier in the month, Strive said it would use the capital raised from the stock offering along with existing cash and potential proceeds from unwinding hedging transactions to pay down the.

[B]

Liabilities with the remainder of the funds.

[A]

Used to acquire the bitcoin and the bitcoin related products.

[B]

The doing doing.

[A]

The company confirmed on Wednesday it'll use the proceeds to retire 110 million or.

Monopoly dollars now Strive noted as Bitcoin Yield is currently 21.2% quarter to date, representing the percentage growth of his bitcoin exposure per common share over period of time.

That's damn since announcing its Bitcoin strategy highlighting the volatility and execution risk tied to the corporate Bitcoin treasury strategy. Yeah, so there were a lot of Bitcoin treasury companies birthed last year and a lot of them are not doing so well right now with the correction. A lot of them are down billions now. Establishing Bitcoin treasuries became a Popular institutional trend 2024, 2025 Though many saw their shares tumble in the back half of the last year as the sustainability of such strategies was called into question. More than 190 publicly traded companies hold the biddy on the balance sheet, collectively owning 1.134 million BTC which is 5.4% of the total crypto supply and nearly 63% of corporate hell Bitcoin is owned by Sailors Strategy. I'll repeat that 63 of the corporate held Bitcoin is owned by Sailors Strategy which continues to make a new Bitcoin purchase despite funding drying up in the recent months amid the broader crypto market pullback.

Now for our feature story of the day.

[B]

Samson Ma supports the 100,000 Bitcoin Omega candle prediction doubling down Ian $1,000,000. That's right.

[A]

Let's all go here where this concept for today's story originated from. The bitcoin therapist posted 100,000 Omega candles.

[B]

Of incoming and then he tagged the one and only Sa Ma, founder of.

[A]

Jan3 and this was off the back.

[B]

Of William Clemente's post.

[A]

Just saw someone say this and had.

[B]

To verify myself Gold has added about 1.75 trillion in the market cap just today alone.

[A]

Naturally this was posted yesterday when bitcoin.

[B]

Or not bitcoin but gold surpassed the $5,300 per ounce. The market cap of bitcoin right now is 1.78 trillion and as of today it's now below 1.75 trillion.

[A]

So yes, you heard that right.

[B]

Gold yesterday in a single day added 1.75 trillion to to the gold market cap which is now over 40 trillion which is larger than the entire bitcoin market cap which took 1819 years to be. Now if that don't give you some hopium, I don't know what will because we all know bitcoin will one day overtake the gold market cap because it's so much more, you know, superior. So Samson said. Yeah, I know faces.

[B]

Well, let's melt some motherfucking faces, shall we? Samson Mao, longtime bitcoin supporter and CEO at reinforce his bullish stance on the bitcoin future. Recently agreed with a prediction the Bitcoin will soon experience the coveted Omega candle which ultimately means a hundred thousand dollar price gain on the daily chart. Could you imagine that? Meaning more than the prices right now in a single 24 hour period? Send it. That's all I gotta say. Mal, strong advocate for the bitcoin growth, had been vocal about the crypto's potential suggesting it could reach a million in the near future. Yeah, we're only nine, you know. Omega candles away, bro. Samson had endorsed the prediction made by the bitcoin enthusiast as I referenced on x bitcoin therapist regarding the upcoming Omega candle which Samson has been predicting and prophesizing for quite some time. In response to the post 100,000 candle imminent, Ma confidently remarked, I know faces will melt. This could cause the bitcoin price rise significantly surpassing 200,000 once the candle hits. And agreed. I just personally can't wait. The concept of the Omega candle refers to our large price movement often characterized by the extreme volatility. Bitcoin supporters, including Samson believe such candles are a sign of major price surges if the prediction holds true and mark a monumental rise for the BTC continuing its upwards trajectory in the market now. For years, Sampson had been predicting bitcoin will eventually reach 1 million. In fact, he said it'll happen in a violent upheaval. When you least expected and thought it was safe, Satoshi slapped you in the face. 1 milli initially he believed this could happen as early as 2024, especially following the SEC's approval of the Bitcoin ETF and the fourth having event. These two events mal claim could have caused the man supply shock, sending the bitcoin price soaring. However, obviously we didn't hit those targets in 2024. But despite the delay, Ma remains optimistic that bitcoin will hit a million mark soon. Just matter of time. He had repeatedly mentioned he still believes bitcoin could achieve this milestone, especially as more institutional players and retail investors continue to show interest. Mouse confidence stems from the long term outlook on Bitcoin's potential as a store of value.

[A]

And there you go. Yo, let me know if you agree or disagree with Jan3's Samson. Matt, I think it's all inevitable. Bitcoin will eventually achieve every price target.

[B]

But what we don't know is when.

[A]

I mean, you know, but that's what makes things exciting. If we knew with 100 certainty what was going to happen into the future. Yeah, you know, it's different but it'll keep you on your toes.

[B]

The bidding market for sure.

[A]

When President Trump was elected, we went parabolic from 70. I believe we're going back there again. Yeah. He's like, yeah, let's just reverse everything we achieved. Tariffs. Yeah, government shut down after already having the longest government shutdown and you know, U.S. government history.

[B]

Yeah, let's do it again. Run that back for Larry Fink, please. You know, I'm not blind faith. I'M Diamond, Hands of the faith. I don't know what's going on, but.

[A]

A whole world outside, just bitcoin versus gold silver is a mess of confusion.

[B]

Or or imminent up. Yeah, you're right. Everything is up and a huge mess.

[A]

It's so true. I don't think anyone can argue with that crazy world.

[B]

But it's all by design.

[A]

It's not just coincidence. There's some very evil players who are.

[B]

The, you know, architects of our satanic world unfortunately.

[A]

And the dark forces keep us in the dark.

[B]

That's what they do. The forces of evil are real. And look at this. We're about to drop the fucking 83. This is insanity. God hacking humanity. BTC money printer go brrr. Then broke. Broke is a joke. The Fed is dead. That's what I said. Bitcoin is now at a 34% discount for the all time high for the 1 26. Going once, going twice so.
