Bitcoin Has A 120-Day Fed Countdown - Trump Just Signed The Order | Mike Alfred
<p>Trump just signed his biggest crypto executive order yet, giving the Fed 120 days to evaluate opening payment rails to Coinbase, Kraken, Circle, Ripple, and Anchorage. The move could break the bank monopoly on Fed plumbing right as Bitcoin sits at $76K after $1B in ETF outflows and $660M in liquidations. Add Warren's attack on OCC crypto charters, JPMorgan saying Bitcoin ETFs are recovering 2X faster than Ethereum, Goldman dumping XRP and Solana for Hyperliquid, and the SEC readying tokenized stocks, and you have one of the most pivotal weeks of the cycle. Is this the bottom, or the setup...
Bitcoin Bleeds $1B As 30Y Yield Hits 5.14%
<p>Bitcoin is hanging on the edge at $76K as Treasury yields surge to multi-month highs — sending a clear warning to risk assets across the board. The 10-year is climbing on hot inflation, the Iran war's oil shock, and growing doubts that new Fed Chair Kevin Warsh can deliver the rate cuts Trump is demanding. Spot Bitcoin ETFs just bled nearly $1 billion in 24 hours, BlackRock's IBIT led the redemptions, and Goldman Sachs quietly dumped its entire XRP and Solana ETF stacks while rotating into Hyperliquid. Add Toyota's motor oil shortage, grocery prices jumping 3.2%, NYDIG warning the CLARITY Act could stall pa...
Bitcoin CRASHES To $76K — $661M Wiped In Hours (Macro Monday)
<p>Bitcoin just dumped to $76,711 — its lowest level in over two weeks — with $660 million in liquidations vaporized in hours as the Iran war, sticky inflation, and a fresh wave of risk-off positioning sent the entire crypto market into a tailspin. The pain is bleeding into Main Street too: Toyota is warning of motor oil shortages, grocery prices just jumped 3.2% year-over-year, and crude oil remains elevated as Putin lands in Beijing to meet Xi just days after Trump's own summit. Meanwhile, NYDIG warns the CLARITY Act could stall past the midterms if the Senate doesn't move before August, Iran is reportedly laun...
Bitcoin’s Strategic Reserve Breakthrough — Trump’s Crypto Adviser Reveals All | Patrick Witt
<p>President’s Council of Advisors for Digital Assets Patrick Witt reveals a major breakthrough is coming on the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, shares why legislation must be codified before regime change can reverse everything, and explains why banks actually need the Clarity Act more than crypto does. We dive into the new ARMA bill designed to lock the Bitcoin reserve into law, the stablecoin yield compromise that has both sides equally unhappy, and why this could be the most impactful piece of financial legislation in American history — all happening before the summer deadline.</p><p> </p><p>Learn more about your...
Why I'm ALL-IN On Bitcoin (And Never Going Back)
<p>Bitcoin isn't an investment to me — it's an exit. And here's the exact moment it clicked: watching 40% of all dollars get printed in two years, realizing inflation isn't prices going up but the ruler being stretched, and understanding that every dollar you save is quietly being drained by people you never elected. I break down why Bitcoin is the first money in history that nobody can print, nobody controls, and nobody can take from you. This isn't financial advice — it's the honest explanation I wish someone gave me years ago.</p><p> </p><p>Learn more about your ad choi...
Bitcoin Rips Past $81K — Is The CLARITY Win Already Priced In?
<p>The CLARITY Act just cleared the Senate Banking Committee in a 15-9 vote, sending the most consequential crypto market structure bill in U.S. history to the full Senate floor — and Bitcoin sits on edge at $81K trying to decide if the news is already priced in. The catalyst stack is massive: Jerome Powell officially exits as Fed chair as Kevin Warsh takes over under Trump's pressure to cut rates, Bloomberg warns that AI-powered North Korean hackers have already drained nearly $600 million from DeFi this year and are putting the $130 billion sector on the brink, and a fresh Politico po...
Bitcoin ETFs Bleed $630M As The CLARITY Act Vote Begins l Mark Yusko
<p>Bitcoin ETFs just bled $630.4 million in a single day — the biggest outflow in over three months — as BTC broke below $80K to $79,200, Solana cratered 5.6%, and BlackRock's IBIT led the redemptions on the back of hot inflation data and Xi's Taiwan warning to Trump. The macro shakeout collides with the most pivotal crypto policy moment of the year: the Senate Banking Committee is marking up the 309-page CLARITY Act today with over 100 amendments on the table, while Coinbase's Brian Armstrong calls it a "true compromise" that could transform US finance. Add Metaplanet's $725M Q1 loss on its 40,177 BTC stack and Anth...
Why Bitcoin Will ROCKET To $126K — Arthur Hayes
<p>Arthur Hayes joins the show with a bold call: Bitcoin is headed to new all-time highs, and the catalysts are stacking up fast. With BTC holding strong at $82K, JPMorgan going all in on tokenization via its new JLTXX Ethereum fund, Schwab rolling out spot crypto to 35 million retail clients, and Morgan Stanley triggering a fee war on E*Trade — Wall Street's crypto invasion is no longer a thesis, it's the trade.

<p>Bitcoin is testing its 200-day SMA near $82K as the Senate Banking Committee drops a 309-page CLARITY Act draft ahead of Thursday's pivotal May 14 markup vote — a moment that could redefine US crypto policy and unlock the next institutional wave.
