    The Math Behind Bitcoin's Move to $96,000

    In this video, Nik discusses bitcoin's recent path to all-time highs as it surges above $85,000. Nik breaks down why his technical analysis points to $96,000 as the next major target. Bitcoin's exit from a $23,000 consolidation funnel has pushed its current market cap up to $1.5 trillion, and Nik dives into what it means for bitcoin to approach 2% of the value of total global equities. He also discusses traditional markets and explains why money market parity suggests potential upside to $300,000. Lastly, given this historic move, Nik also discusses halving cycles and probability-weighted targets to deliver a more comprehensive analysis.

    Bitcoin Hits $73,000: The Hidden Money Printer Fueling All-Time Highs

    In this episode, Nik examines the powerful forces pushing Bitcoin toward new highs, revealing how government spending sets off new money creation that flows directly into assets. Starting with a breakdown of Bitcoin’s recent breakout and technical setup, he then explores the global backdrop, including China’s $1 trillion stimulus and shifts in U.S. fiscal policy. Using a balance sheet approach, Nik illustrates how Treasury issuance, bank purchases, and government payments lead to new deposits and net worth expansion — a process fueling assets without Fed involvement. This analysis reveals why Bitcoin, as a finite asset, stands to benefit in a world of accelerating government-driven liquidity. The Bitcoin Layer is a bitcoin and global macroeconomic research firm.
