Bitcoin Is About To BREAKOUT To $80,000
In this video, Joe walks through several bitcoin charts to make the case that we're breaking out and moving to and through new all-time highs. He discusses some price action technical analysis, the descending channel bitcoin is trying to break above, the momentum that BTC has built underneath it, and the solid launchpad to take off from with very little froth in the futures market. He concludes with the dismal macro data of late, and how that will impact BTC and other risk throughout the year.

Global Macro Update: Bitcoin Thrives When US Manipulates Dollar
In this episode, Nik brings us a global macro update focused on the US government's grand manipulation of the dollar. Nik argues that although the dollar index oscillates, the major theme of introducing dollar liquidity/supply to suppress its value continues to drive asset prices, including Treasuries, stocks, gold, and of course, bitcoin. Join us for an in-depth discussion of the US fiscal picture, tax receipts, interest expense, debt-to-GDP, asset returns, and a global monetary reset.
