    What is the bond market telling us?

    Mike and Ryan break down the bond market signals that are starting to flash risk off: a standout 30 year Treasury auction, falling real yields, and a 2 year yield below the Fed funds rate. They map today’s narrowing stock market breadth and Mag7 dispersion to the early stages of the dot com setup, then steel man the bull case with AI capex, bigger tax refunds, and potential tariff stimulus. Finally, they explain why Bitcoin may be a leading liquidity indicator for TradFi and walk through the portfolio positioning, including the heavy cash stance and what would trigger the next fat pitch. ----📣GALAXY | INSTITUTIONAL DIGITAL FINANCEhttps://bankless.cc/Galaxy ----📣THE DEFI REPORT | FOLLOW & SUBSCRIBEhttps://thedefireport.transistor.fm/https://thedefireport.io/https://x.com/the_defi_reporthttps://x.com/JustDeauIt ----TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Intro3:14 Analyzing the Bond Market Signals6:01 The Growth & Inflation Narrative9:38 Transitioning to Risk-Off Assets12:57 Equities: Are We in a Tech Bubble?15:13 Comparing Today to the Dot-Com Era19:10 Understanding Market Catalysts22:39 The Bull Case for AI Stocks26:52 Tax Refunds & Economic Impacts29:57 Consumer Behavior & Market Trends33:04 Portfolio Adjustments & Future Outlook35:24 Closing & Disclaimers ----Not financial or tax advice.

    Where do we go from here?

    In this episode of The DeFi Report, Mike and Ryan break down Bitcoin’s sharp drop below $65K fair value and whether last week’s capitulation was the long-awaited fat pitch. They compare this cycle to 2018 and 2022, explain why the selloff has accelerated faster than past bears, and unpack what Mike means when he says spot markets are “tangled.” With 40% of supply held above $78K and heavy dip buying at $84K, they explore the risk of a relief rally into resistance and the potential for one more leg down toward the 200-week moving average. They close with details on TDR’s first deployment of the bear market, deep value targets, and how they’re scaling into positions while keeping dry powder ready. ---- 📣THE DEFI REPORT | FOLLOW & SUBSCRIBE https://thedefireport.transistor.fm/ https://thedefireport.io/ https://x.com/the_defi_report https://x.com/JustDeauIt ---- TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Intro 1:09 Market Sentiment Shifts 3:28 Comparing Past Cycles 6:13 First Purchase of the Bear Market 7:49 Forced Selling & Market Reactions 12:50 Analyzing Market Structure 17:29 Understanding New Market Psychology 21:52 TDR's Strategic Allocation 27:47 Updates on the Watch List 31:28 Triggers for Altcoin Deployments 32:49 Closing & Disclaimers ---- Not financial or tax advice.

    What does the new Fed Chair mean for Crypto?

    In this episode of The DeFi Report, Mike and Ryan break down what Trump’s pick for Fed Chair, Kevin Warsh, could mean for crypto, and why a real regime shift might be back on the table. They unpack Warsh’s record as a Fed governor, his critique of QE and the swollen balance sheet, and the big question markets are not pricing: is the Fed Put still alive? Mike explains why he still views crypto as in a bear market, the onchain and cycle metrics he needs to see before going risk-on, and how a Nasdaq rollover tied to an AI unwind could drive the next leg lower. They close with fair value targets, downside scenarios, and what would finally flip Mike into buy mode. ----📣THE DEFI REPORT | FOLLOW & SUBSCRIBE https://thedefireport.transistor.fm/ https://thedefireport.io/ https://x.com/the_defi_report https://x.com/JustDeauIt ---- TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Intro 2:15 The Bloodbath in Crypto Prices 2:52 Analyzing the New Fed Chair 7:21 Warsh's Views on Inflation 10:19 Trump & Warsh's Alignment 12:55 The Fed Put: A New Perspective 18:05 Constraints on Warsh's Policies 20:59 The Uncertainty of the Fed's Influence 21:50 Crypto's Bear Market Outlook 23:32 Metrics for Bitcoin's Recovery 25:27 Long-Term Holders' Market Behavior 27:13 The State of Bitcoin Miners 29:35 NASDAQ & Tech Sector Trends 32:54 The AI Bubble and Its Implications 35:35 The Potential for Market Unwind 39:39 ISM Data and Economic Signals 40:45 Mike's Risk-On Strategy Insights 42:41 Closing & Disclaimers ---- Not financial or tax advice.

    Why is Bitcoin Underperforming Gold?

    In this episode of The DeFi Report, Mike and Ryan break down why Bitcoin is underperforming gold, what the BTC/Gold ratio is signaling about the next bottom, and why this setup may be more bullish than it looks. They unpack China’s role in driving the gold trade, why Bitcoin still behaves like a risk-on asset, and how investor “envy” distorts cycle perception.

    1月14日

    Next Stop $100k?

    Bitcoin is pushing toward $100K, but is the move real or just a positioning unwind? Mike and Ryan break down the CPI surprise, real rates and breakevens, why global liquidity still looks like it’s rolling over, and what the onchain data says about true demand, from ETF flows to long term holder selling, open interest, and funding. Mike explains what would convince him this rally can reclaim $100K as support, and why he’s still staying patient and largely in cash. ----📣THE DEFI REPORT | FOLLOW & SUBSCRIBE https://thedefireport.transistor.fm/ https://thedefireport.io/ https://x.com/the_defi_report https://x.com/JustDeauIt ---- TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Intro 0:14 Next Stop: $100K Bitcoin? 1:10 Positive Price Action 4:54 Powell's Prosecution & Market Impact 6:08 Bitcoin's Moment? 9:14 Understanding Real Rates & CPI 12:19 Global Liquidity & Bitcoin 17:57 Onchain Data Insights 21:47 Market Demand Signals 26:14 Anticipating Market Reactions 32:15 Upcoming Assets on the Watchlist 35:44 Closing ---- Not financial or tax advice.
