PODCAST: The Bitcoin Historian

Dear Bitcoiners,

I’ve got a brand-new podcast episode for you! Last week, I recorded a great conversation with Pete Rizzo, The Bitcoin Historian, and the episode just went live. It fits perfectly with the current market and the topics we’ve been discussing over the past weeks.

We covered where Bitcoin is in the cycle, why the 4-year cycle remains intact, the Low Consolidation phase, treasury companies, and the path toward a Bitcoin standard. The parts on the Bitcoin Spiral and bottom formation are my personal favorites. Make sure you don’t miss those.

As a paid subscriber, you get access to all live charts and indicators, and together we’ll continue dissecting this bottom formation over the coming weeks. For links to the live charts, see the list below!
