Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Bitcoin vs Gold: The “Rare Zone” and Its Implications

• Bitcoin-to-Gold Ratio Enters Rare Territory
  • [02:12–06:34] JV and Nipsey discuss Fidelity’s analysis highlighting a rare signal in the Bitcoin–Gold ratio, which historically precedes major Bitcoin repricings. This “zone” signals an accelerating capital flow from gold into BTC.
    • Quote: “Historically when the signal appears it has preceded some of the largest repricing phases in bitcoin’s history.” – Fed Chair Nipsey [03:14]
  • Comparison of market cap sizes:
    • Gold held in investments/reserves: ~$36T (peaked at $40T)
    • Bitcoin current market cap: “less than $1.5 trillion” [05:22]
    • Total global capital: $800T+ [05:22]
  • Market Cap Parity Examples:
    • If Bitcoin matches gold’s $36T: BTC = ~$1.7M/coin [05:48]
    • Even 10% migration from gold to BTC ($3.6T) would “more than double” BTC market cap, pushing price into $500–750K range [06:01]
  • Supply Shock Mechanics:
    • With BTC scarcity (21M cap), even partial gold-to-BTC capital transfer would have “powerful supply shock” effects.

2. Institutional Momentum and Macro Trends Accelerate Bitcoinization

• Structural Demand and Spot BTC ETF Inflows
  • [06:44–09:00]
    • Saylor’s MicroStrategy strategy cited as new class of demand—corporate treasuries holding BTC [06:44].
    • Spot Bitcoin ETFs bringing “massive pools of traditional capital” (BlackRock, Fidelity, etc.) into BTC.
• Bitcoin’s Superiority Over Gold
  • Digital, perfectly scarce, “globally verifiable and borderless,” highly resistant to confiscation [07:22].
    • Quote: “Unlike gold, Bitcoin is perfectly scarce… Best of luck trying to transfer your gold. You can’t do it digitally.” – JV [07:30]
• Narrative Shift:
  • Bitcoin moving from experiment to legitimate “global monetary asset competing directly with gold and other real assets” [09:29].

3. $750,000 BTC and Kiyosaki’s Market Crash Thesis

• Kiyosaki’s Bold Predictions
  • [09:29–16:41]
    • Kiyosaki (of Rich Dad, Poor Dad fame) projects BTC at $750,000/coin, gold at $35,000/oz, silver at $200/oz after a global financial crash, predicting a massive repricing event [09:29].
      • Quote: “I predict the gold to hit 35,000 an ounce… He also predicts Bitcoin to hit 750,000 a coin.” – JV [13:31]
  • JV’s critical view:
    • Argues BTC is “most likely to hit $750,000 a coin before any of these other targets manifest” [14:17].
    • Skepticism over gold being in a bubble, questions on timing and realism of Kiyosaki’s crash forecast.
    • Points out Kiyosaki’s long-standing (sometimes premature) doomsaying [16:41].
    • Inflation and cost-of-living crises make “scarce assets” like Bitcoin increasingly attractive [14:17].

4. SEC & Regulatory News: Crypto Commodities Take Center Stage

• SEC’s Regulatory Pivot
  • [19:04–22:00]
    • Breaking news: SEC says most crypto assets “may not be securities under federal law,” reflecting a long-anticipated shift to CFTC jurisdiction for most tokens.
    • SEC’s clarification: Only “tokenized securities” will clearly be securities; otherwise, non-security tokens move under CFTC.
      • Quote: “The most crypto assets are not themselves securities and it reflects the reality that investment contracts can come to an end.” – JV, quoting SEC [20:58]
    • New regulatory clarity expected to accelerate adoption and market structure legislation.

5. Meme Coins & Market Manipulation: The Trump Token Saga

• Trump Meme Coin Whale Activity and Gala Announcements

      • Quote: “Most likely it will pump and then dump after the lunch is over.” – Fed Chair Nipsey [25:40]
    • Event speculation: Tether CEO’s attendance signals “potential ecosystem announcement” [25:05].

6. Stablecoins & Regulation: UK–US Policy Intersection

• Circle’s Policy Chief on Regulatory Harmonization

Debt Relief.com Welcome Bitcoin family to the number one Bitcoin pod. In today's show we shall discuss Bitcoin enters The rare zone versus gold. I'm going to be breaking down the $750,000 Bitcoin price scenario. We'll also discuss the latest what the SEC says most crypto assets may not be securities under the new federal law and its official also Trump meme coin whales pile in ahead of the Margo gala. Also Circle's policy chief tells the UK to merge the MICI Clarity with the US stablecoin rules.

All this plus so much more right here in today's show. Today is March 18, 2026. I'm your host JV alongside my co host Fed Chair Nipsey. And today lots of happening. I got some bullishness to kick it with you. So let's dive right in to our

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

feature story of the day.

[JV (Host)]

As you can see Bitcoin enters the rare zone versus Gold. Well tell me more about the rare zone. And this is according to Fidelity and if you don't remember, Fidelity has the most bullish bitcoin price prediction in the history of bitcoin price predictions. You remember Jury and Timmer head of their macro says $1 billion I think it was by the year 2038. Well, we're fast approaching that 2038 year and of course I'm going to break down. But of course I had to do a deep dive for you guys, so I'm going to break it down. And also as a bonus, we got Robert Kaki predicting Bitcoin hitting 750,000 a

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

coin which is right in alignment with

[JV (Host)]

my prediction, believe it or not. So you're welcome, Mr. Rich. Dad, I'm going to break down the math for everyone watching. A major signal just appeared in the bitcoin market. According to analysts highlighted by Fidelity, one of the larger asset managers out there, bitcoin has entered a rare historical zone when measured against gold. We're ultimately trying to tell you bitcoin

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

is the new Pikachu illustrator, a one of one. So stack the stats while you can. But on a serious note, historically when the signal appears, it has preceded some of the largest repricing phases in bitcoin's history. This is a fact. If the relationship between bitcoin and gold continues shifting in the bitcoin favor, some analysts believe the next major expansion cycle will push the price to 500,000 to 750,000 per bitcoin. This is the range that may sound aggressive at first and also I like to remind you, stock to flow shows bitcoin's average at this particular cycle. We're in 500,000. So these aren't just some numbers. And while it may sound aggressive, once you understand the scale of the gold vers bitcoin monetary shift, the math will start to make sense. For decades, gold has served as the world's most dominant store value asset. Central banks hoard it, institutions trust it. Investors treat it as the ultimate hedge against monetary instability. And today, the total value of the gold held as investment in reserves is estimated to be 36 trillion. It even peaked as high as 40 trillion when gold hit 5,700 anounce. Now, Bitcoin by comparison, very early in its evolution as a global monetary asset. Over the past decade, something important started happening. Bitcoin increasingly begun competing with gold for the exact same role. A hedge against currency debasement, inflation and systemic financial risks. When analysts study the relationship between bitcoin and gold, they often track something called the bitcoin to gold ratio. We talk about this very often on the show. This measures how much gold one bitcoin can purchase. And historically, when this ratio enters certain zones, it signals a potential shift in capital flows between the two assets. Right now, bitcoin has entered one of those rare zones that doesn't guarantee an immediate price explosion, but historically it often preceded major bitcoin expansion phases relative to gold. Think of it this way. Gold represents one of the largest pools of stored wealth in the world. Bitcoin represents the new digital store value network competing for that capital.

[JV (Host)]

At today's market cap, Bitcoin's like less than one and a half trillion. Just to give you an idea of how small bitcoin is collectively, when we're talking the world and how much money the world has, we're talking 800 trillion plus capital.

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

Now, even small shifts in this massive pool of wealth can have enormous effects on the bitcoin price. I'll give you an example.

[JV (Host)]

If Bitcoin were to reach the gold

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

parity, meaning its total market cap matched

[JV (Host)]

36 trillion market cap that of gold,

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

then the implied bitcoin price would be roughly 1.7 million per coin.

[JV (Host)]

Not a prediction, but it demonstrates the

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

scale of the potential monetary transition.

[JV (Host)]

And Bitcoin doesn't need to replace gold

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

to see these enormous appreciation levels. Even a partial capital rotation would create a powerful supply shock. For example, if just 10% of the gold market cap moved along into Bitcoin, that would represent roughly 3.6 trillion entering the bitcoin network. So it would more than double overnight. And with bitcoin supply permanently capped at 21 million coins, that level of demand would force dramatic repricing. Under many macro models, even the modest capital flows from gold into Bitcoin would

[JV (Host)]

push the asset to the 500 to

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

$750,000 range per coin. And I personally feel that's even conservative.

[JV (Host)]

And that's exactly why analysts are watching

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

this rare signal so closely alongside the nip andator lickingator indicator, because it may indicate the early stages of the transition. Meanwhile, several institutional forces, structural forces continue accelerating the bitcoin adoption as monetary asset institutional access continues expanding dramatically. A great example is what sailors doing with strategy and STRC they're raising. Ultimately there's an infinite money glitch. He raises unlimited amounts of capital and just buys all the bitcoin he can. Also, we got the spot Bitcoin ETFs who have opened the market to the massive pools of traditional capital such as Black Rocks, ibit, you know, Fidelity, etc etc and the corporate treasury adoption of course. I mentioned what Sailor strategy has introduced an entirely new class of structural Bitcoin demand by allocating corporate balance sheets to Bitcoin. And now there's 200 other corporate companies that have Bitcoin on the balance sheet thanks to the Sailor put Also, the global macro uncertainty continues rising as central banks expand the balance sheets and governments accumulate debt. Investors are increasingly searching for neutral assets outside the traditional financial system. Bitcoin fits that description in ways gold cannot. Unlike gold, Bitcoin is perfectly scarce, meaning there's true scarcity. Finite, limited supply, digitally transferable. Best of luck trying to transfer your gold. You can't do it digitally. Globally verifiable and borderless resistant confiscation. That's major, especially if you don't trust the lizard folk, just as I do.

to store without the physical custody. Unlike gold, they'll just seize your gold bars. Now, in a world where capital moves digitally, those characteristics truly matter. And as a result, Bitcoin's narrative is beginning to peter shift. What started as an experimental digital currency is increasingly being viewed as something much larger. A global monetary asset competing directly with gold. And let's not forget the other pools of capital, the real estate market, the bond market. You know, there's hundreds of trillions of dollars Bitcoin's tapping into. So why signals like the current Bitcoin to gold ratio matter? They don't predict the exact price targets, but they do help identify moments when the capital flows begin shifting between monetary assets. And that's what we're witnessing, right? Bitcoin is demonetizing gold, real estate, and all these other markets. And historically, when Bitcoin begins gaining ground against gold, it has often marked the start of a powerful expansion cycle. Now another layer of long term modeling suggests the upside could be even larger. As I referenced earlier, Jury and Timmer, director of the Global Macro over at Fidelity Investments, has already suggested the Bitcoin long term trajectory. He said by the year 2038, Bitcoin could smash a billion dollars per coin. I'll let that one sink in for you. Granted, there would be Hyperinflation of the US dollar and a loaf of bread may cost 10,000. That's besides the point. Stack the bitcoin. Now the model assumes Bitcoin's value rises exponentially as adoption expands and the network grows. And whether or not that prediction ultimately proves correct remains to be seen. But what is clear is that Bitcoin continues moving deeper and deeper into the global financial system. And if capital begins flowing at a traditional stores value like gold and into Bitcoin, which we're witnessing right now, the implications for the price could be extraordinary. Because Bitcoin begins capturing even a small share of the world's 36 trillion market cap, the path towards a 750,000 Bitcoin scenario may begin to look for far less unrealistic than many people imagine. And if you understand the implications of the Bitcoin vers gold transition, repost this post so more people can see it. I shared this post earlier today. If you gain value out of it, hit a repost. It's free to do. Let's continue with this $750,000 Bitcoin price prediction. I already gave you my perspective on how easily we can surpass 750G's as that money flowing out of gold starts flowing into bitcoin. And that's just one pool of capital. We also have the real estate, we have the bond market. So many other pools of capital to tap into. Now Rich dad recently tweeted here some bold predictions. He says biggest bubble bust. I do not know what pin the bitcoin is the pin what event will pop the biggest bubbles in history. And whatever the event, the PIN is near. And if it's not when. I'm sorry it, it's not if it is when he says and when the bubbles go a bust, I predict the goal to hit 35000 an ounce. So that's basically a 7x700% increase he's suggesting after the gold bubble pops. Now my question to you. Do you think the gold bubble will pop? Do you perceive gold as even being in a bubble right now? Because I don't. So that's why I ask. Let me know honestly. And can you See, gold's going up as at a factor of 7x. Now he also says I predict silver to hit 200 an ounce a year after the bus. Can someone tell me how much an ounce of silver is now? I don't know what it is. Maybe it's $50, maybe it's $70. Someone let me know. I know an ounce of gold is roughly 5,000 an ounce. So I guess why I got the 7x. He also predicts Bitcoin to hit 750,000 a coin. And if today we're at 70,000, that's basically a factor of a 10x or a thousand percent increase. But the interesting part he puts a year after the crash. So my question is when the is the crash, what crash is he projecting? And also same thing with gold. He's saying the gold bubble is going to pop, hit a bottom and then take off. So let me know, do you think the bottom is already in or do you think we have yet to see it? That's what I want to know. He also made a crazy prediction for ethereum to be 95 GS after a year crash. Now I'm very skeptical of Ethereum hitting a price target near a hundred thousand even with Bitcoin going to 750, 000 a coin. But hey, that's Robert Kiyosaki. It's not JV. I'm just reading, just preaching the news. What do you think the prices will be a year after the next great financial crash? And I guess the question is also when the is going to be this next big financial according to Kiyosaki. Let me know your thoughts. And do you agree with any of these predictions? Do you think any of them are outrageous?

[JV (Host)]

Personally, I think bitcoin's Most likely to hit 750000 a coin before any of these other targets manifest. But I want to know your thoughts now. For the prediction to be valid, one needs a time frame. Even if it's stretched out over the next 12 months or more, even if the price eventually reaches 750, 000 per Bitcoin, the measure of success will largely depend on the average U.S. house prices or the annual cost of living for a typical family. And you already know living costs are going through the roof because they're continuing to print unprecedented amounts of money to support things like war which we didn't sign up for. And your purchasing value of the dollar is dwindling in real time. An accelerated expansion. I got to talk to Samson of the global monetary supply such as the periods between 2020 and 2021 tends to trigger a surge in demand for the scarce assets, regardless of the official government inflation metrics. For instance, the S and P gained 52% between July 2020 and December of 2021, while average home prices, a major US capital city surge by 38% in two years. And to give you some perspective, just here in Puerto Rico in 2024, prices also went up over 30% in one year. Real estate so real estate continues booming, at least in Puerto Rico. Let me know where you're at if the prices are, you know, steadying or increasing or decreasing. Kiyosaki anticipates the gold price is S75, I'm sorry, 35,000 an ounce. Again, that's maybe a factor of 7x from here and then silver. He's also very bullish on and he has been very bullish on Precious Met.

If you know Kiyosaki for a long time, his target for gold yields is 243 trillion market cap, 4.4 times larger than current aggregate market cap for the entire S and P. Kiyosaki believes the bitcoin to gold ratio would reach a 21.5 so far below the 30 or sorry, 40 all time high from December of 2024. And more concerningly, the current 200 day moving average is currently standing at a 22, making Kiyosaki's estimate far from bullish for bitcoin. And additionally, gold's annual output should grow considerably if the price surges to those unprecedented levels. Kosaki reportedly had been predicting great economic crashes at least since 2011, and I will basically confirm that because he has been talking doom and gloom for a very long time. For example, September of 2015, he said, I'd be predicting since O2 we would have a stock market crash and in 2016, while the S P actually gained almost 10 that year. So trying to time the market moves more than 10 years in advance seems rather unconventional. And that's why I commonly say short term term is very unpredictable in these major markets, including bitcoin. Long term, we all know the trajectory. It's going up forever, Laura. There's no second best and I think you all would agree. So also In May of 2024 he posted that the biggest crash in history already begun. So in that, you know, perspective, the

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

crash is already here.

[JV (Host)]

Advising followers not to get greedy and avoid catching the fallen knives. The suggestion came five months after the prior warning about a bank credit sell off similar to 2008, which was the financial, you know, basically disaster that sparked the birth of bitcoin.

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

Right.

[JV (Host)]

The genesis block I believe was, you know, the following year, early 2009 and more than 20 months later, nothing remotely similar had occurred. So take anything anyone says with a grain of salt. You know, just because someone says something doesn't make it true. Because the reality is he is not baron Trump. I sure as am not Baron Trump. We're not time travelers.

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

So there's no way to know.

[JV (Host)]

You know, the future is yet to be determined.

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

It's what we do today as a

[JV (Host)]

collective which is going to determine the outcome of the future. So it's still in our hands. And that's a beautiful thing.

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

You know, the wonderful thing about bitty Bitty. The wonderful thing. No diddy.

[JV (Host)]

Another big news story. The SEC says most crypto assets may not be securities under federal law after all. After Gensler and the biden administration was alleging everything's a security now they've backtracked on that and apparently all the major tokens are going to be under the jurisdiction not of the sec, but the cftc, you know, so check this one out. And it's not like we didn't know this was coming. We all knew these coins weren't securities. But you know, there was a war on crypto, right? So in one of the first altcoins since signing a memorandum of the understanding with the cftc, the SEC said it would clarify how non security crypto assets are treated under federal security laws in the Tuesday notice. So this was the big news yesterday. The SEC said the interpretation of how the crypto assets should be treated would serve as an important bridge as lawmakers of the U. S. Congress consider market structure. Legislation that will codify how financial regulators oversee digital assets. The commission said the Interpretation would provide a coherent token taxonomy for digital commodities, digital collectibles, digital tools, stable coins, digital securities addressing how non security crypto assets may or may not be considered an investment contract under the SEC purview and clarify federal security laws on airdrops, protocol mining, protocol staking and the wrapping of a non security crypto asset. Quoting the SEC chair Paul Atkins this is what regulatory agencies are supposed to do. Do you hear that Gary? Draw clear lines and clear terms. Mr. Noclair Gareth now it's also acknowledging what the former admin refused to recognize. The most crypto assets are not themselves securities and it reflects the reality that investment contracts can come to an end. This is the big news being shared on X by the SEC right there. And according to Atkins, he prepared remarks for the DC Blockchain Summit saying only one crypto asset remains subject to security laws under the interpretation, namely traditional security securities that are tokenized. The Commission called on market participants to review the interpretation to better understand the regulatory jurisdiction between the SEC and the CFTC on crypto. The SEC notice came as lawmakers of the U S Senate continued to negotiate terms under which they may reach an agreement on the digital asset market structure bill. The legislation is expected to give the CFTC more authority in overseeing crypto. And then on Monday the SEC announced that its enforcement division director resigned from the agency. Its principal deputy director Sam Walden was named as acting enforcement director. Quoting John Reed Stark the SEC has abandoned its identity. It has transformed from the cop on Wall Street's beat into something far more troubling. A regulatory body that functions less like law enforcement agency a more like coner service for the largest financial players in the country.

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

But that's, you know, the world we live in.

You know. Next story of the day Brosis Trump meme coin whales are piling in ahead

of the Margo gala and if you

didn't know, data shows 91% of the Trump supply concentrated in the top 10 wallets and 97% held by the top 100 wallets. Any of you have any Trump coin, let me know. Here's the latest number of whale wallets holding more than 1 million Trump tokens tied to President Trump have searched five month highs. After announcing the luncheon at the Florida home for the top holder. I heard a rumor. Now it's probably bullshit but I, I just share the rumor. The rumor is when Trump does these mar a Largo appearances, it's an actor,

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

it's not actually Trump.

[JV (Host)]

Trump doesn't have the time to sit

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

down and have lunch with you. Dorks.

[JV (Host)]

I don't know if that's true or not, but I figured I share what I heard. Now there are there are 83 wallets holding more than 1 million Trump, equating to 3.7 million, making it the highest showing for a meme coin since October 8th last year. The luncheon with Trump is set for

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

April 25th, so that's next month at

[JV (Host)]

the Mar Lago residence. Whether you're speaking with the real Trump

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

or an actor, you tell me. According to Trump's team, the top 297 token holders are invited, with the top 29 eligible for a private reception with the President allegedly subject to passing the background checks. Who knows, you may even get one of those Biden actors in there hanging out with Trump. You just never know. In the days following the luncheon announcement, Trump rose more than 50%. So yeah, the the token spikes when he does these luncheons. The hit a peak because everyone wants to meet the POTUS, right at $4.35. And as of Wednesday, Trump is up 27% over the last seven days. And that's probably why it's pumping right? Santiment put here. You may have noticed official Trump Coin temporary decoupling over the last couple of days, up 36% since Wednesday. As this is happening, our data indicates there's now more than 83. 1 million coin Trump wallets. So there you go. 83 folks have more than a million Trump coin, the most in over five months now.

over 91 of the supply concentrated amongst the top 10 wallets and over 97among them the top 100 wallets. At the first event for Trump token holders last year, Tron founder Justin sun was the largest token holder. John also points to other guests such as Tether CEO who is scheduled to speak and attend the luncheon as potential drivers of the user interest. Momentum is driven by the narrative led

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

forward flows and the whale positioning.

[JV (Host)]

The presence of the Tether CEO at this event hints at a potential ecosystem announcement, providing a real catalyst. His appearance could transform the gala into a progress showcase of the Trump Token Trump spiked in the lead up to last year's gala, so I guess it's a rinse repeat.

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

They've done it before, they'll do it again.

[JV (Host)]

Quoting John here. Historically Trump event show an announcement driven hype phase followed by the gradual post event downtrend. This event will follow a similar trajectory unless new developments are unveiled around the event. So there you go.

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

Yeah. Most likely it will pump and then dump after the lunch is over.

[JV (Host)]

And the big Trump fans I guess will keep accumulating the Trump coin so they can be invited to the luncheon with the imposter actor Trump. Next up, we did the Trump meme coin. We're going to discuss Circles Policy Chief tells the UK to merge the MICA Clarity with the US stablecoin Rules that's right, Circles Policy Chief Dante told the United Kingdom House of Lords.

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

What an interesting House name. The House of Lords almost sounds blasphemous

[JV (Host)]

Committee that the UK has the chance

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

to build descriptive regime by combining the clarity of the European Union markets in the MICA with the elements of the new U S Stablecoin framework. They say the model is clear. Take the best of both and make it distinctly British. Word up.

The UK's Financial Conduct Authority has been consulting on the broader crypto asset regime that is expected to come into force October 25, 2027 when companies conducting the new regulated activities will need authorization. Our growth across the currencies and jurisdictions is proof that trusted stablecoin expand the markets, they do not shrink them. He also proposed four governing principles to anchor the UK's regulatory framework. One to one reserve backing requiring high quality liquid reserves, enforceable redemptions and strong transparency standards. Circle is the issuer of the world's largest, second largest I should say Stablecoin, which is usdc. Stablecoins lack the clear value proposition mastercard MC Water said stable coins lack the clear value proposition to threaten the payment cards. Stablecoins currently lack the clear value proposition that would drive the customers to adopt them over the variety of domestic payment options available, according to MC Waters. Let's dive into our final story while you guys summon the chandy. Now for our final story of the day.

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

Big news.

[JV (Host)]

Fed holds the rates amid higher inflation

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

outlook bitty bounces the 72 we did

[JV (Host)]

tap 76 the other day before the correction. Just FYI. But yeah, the correction followed a hotter than expected PPI report which was 0.7% higher than the 3.4 year on year estimate. Despite the sell in data shows Bitcoin spot market demand holding steady with buyers stepping in to absorb the selling pressure. And proof of of this appetite being reflected by Bitcoin reclaiming 72 GS after the Fed a minutes highlighted their decision to leave the interest rates unchanged and then we start correcting shortly after that. And while the market consensus has tilted for toward the Fed choosing a pause on the interest rate changes, market volatility,

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

the oil prices obviously oil skyrocketing right

[JV (Host)]

now, equity markets and persistent tension over the recently started U S Iran Israel

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

[JV (Host)]

On the four hour chart as outlined here Bitcoin shows a higher low pattern keeping the short term uptrend intact. The price action is holding above the 100200 period exponential moving averages which are acting as dynamic support. These moving averages track the average prices over time to define the trend direction.

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

When align below the bitty price the

[JV (Host)]

confluence may allow Bitcoin to stabilize near 71. And ironic enough we're at 713 at

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

the time of the live and that's

[JV (Host)]

on a potential base after the sell off now you know 74000 we did hit, you know like I said we touched 76, then we corrected shortly after there was some profit taking going on

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]

and 70 in my eyes is currently the line in the sand.

[JV (Host)]

As long as we can maintain above that'll be the new support. Obviously we break below we're right back

[Fed Chair Nipsey (Co-host)]
