In this week's episode of Bits + Bips, the panel digs into one of the most dramatic threats yet to financial markets: Donald Trump's suggestion that he could fire Fed Chair Jerome Powell.

Joining the panel is Zach Pandl, Head of Research at Grayscale, who explores why a rotation away from U.S. dollar assets might already be happening and what that means for bitcoin.

The Shred is a weekly roundup of what's making headlines in the world of employment. The Shred is brought to you today by Jobcase.

In this captivating clip from Market Mondays, Rashad Bilal, Troy Millings, and Ian Dunlap dive into the intriguing strategy of MicroStrategy and its bitcoin investments. They discuss whether MicroStrategy's colossal bitcoin holdings could position it as one of the most valuable companies globally or if it's just another fly-by-night entity in the ever-evolving world of cryptocurrency.Ian Dunlap makes an interesting comparison, dubbing Michael Saylor as the new Cathy Woods. He examines the genius behind Saylor's hyper-focused strategy of solely investing in bitcoin and warns of the potential risks where competitive forces, or even the government, might disrupt this strategy.The trio also explores the nuances of Saylor's strategy, questioning why MicroStrategy's stock keeps falling despite holding a significant amount of what many consider the world's most valuable asset. Rashad points out that since MicroStrategy is intricately linked with bitcoin, the decline in bitcoin's value directly impacts the company's stock sentiment. Meanwhile, Troy provides insights into how the company continually acquires more bitcoin, even amidst falling stock prices, by issuing shares and borrowing money – a strategy potentially on shaky ground if this trend persists.The hosts further delve into the inherent volatility of bitcoin compared to MicroStrategy's stock, illustrating how swings in bitcoin's value consume the company's strategy. As they navigate through cyclical trends of bitcoin, Rashad, Troy, and Ian discuss the possible long-term implications if bitcoin does skyrocket to unprecedented heights, potentially positioning MicroStrategy, an avid bitcoin holder, at the pinnacle of financial power.Amidst this dynamic discussion, Rashad and Troy dissect who holds the most bitcoin globally. They find that while MicroStrategy ranks highly, it isn't at the top due to competitors like Binance and Grayscale. However, they argue that MicroStrategy's singular focus on holding bitcoin sets it apart from other brokerage firms operating within the crypto space.As the trio unpacks the complexities of investing in bitcoin and the future prospects for MicroStrategy, they revisit a hopeful prediction where bitcoin could soar to $5 million. Could Michael Saylor's audacious strategy pay off in the long run, or will it fall short? Join Rashad, Troy, and Ian in this engaging conversation about the ever-evolving world of cryptocurrency and the tumultuous journey of bitcoin.Hashtags: #MarketMondays #Bitcoin #MicroStrategy #Cryptocurrency #MichaelSaylor #Investing #FinancialStrategy #CryptoInvesting #BitcoinVolatility #FinanceDiscussionOur Sponsors:* Check out NerdWallet: https://www.nerdwallet.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
