Stuff That Interests Me
Why I'm Feeling Bearish (And What I'm Doing About It)

Stuff That Interests Me

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.theflyingfrisby.comI don't mean to get all bearish on you.Bearish copy - it's all going down, it's going to crash - gets more eyeballs than “everything's fine”. Bearish commentators usually have bigger followings. Bad news sells.But bears are usually wrong. They've predicted 13 of the last two corrections.The fact is, as human beings progress and economies grow, markets tend to rise. This is doubly so when the underlying unit of account - the pound, the euro, the dollar - is being systematically debased. (Which makes the underperformance of the FTSE these last 25 years even more incredible by the way). Stock markets, especially in the US, have become places to park capital, where you can reduce erosion by inflation.So that's my disclaimer out of the way.I'm feeling bearishWe'll start with bitcoin. It's a leading indicator for the Nasdaq and tech. It's sold off - from $125,000 in early October to $90,000 a coin on Monday. Remember: I targeted $90,000 a coin a few weeks back.The crypto summer was muted, so we can expect this crypto winter to be similarly muted - no 90% corrections in other words. But we are almost 30% down already.Strip out the noise and HODL is my advice. That's what I'm doing. There has been no better investment strategy over the last 15 years and I'm sticking with it. But a crypto winter is upon us, it seems. Let's hope it's a mild one.Here's the chart. Look at the 50 day moving average in red. This is the third time in since 2024 that we have been in this situation.One correction lasted most of 2024 - well, March to October - the other took up the first five months of this year. They passed.Also worth noting is how each correction seems to have three spikes down - three drives to the bottom. This time around we have only had one, so maybe a couple more to go. That is not a prediction by the way: just an observation.The corrections in gold and silver have been more muted. But I have to say the silver chart concerns me. Double top or what?I thought the October correction would go deeper than it did, but it held up at the 50 day moving average (red line). That's a sign of strength. This rebound rally, dead cat bounce - whatever you want to call it - has taken us right back to the old highs, while gold and the S&P500 both made lower highs. That is also a sign of relative strength.But the second high was not confirmed by the silver miners, that is not good. And now we have a double top on our hands, until we don't.I would think we have one more leg down to get through plus some sideways consolidation to digest the gains of earlier this year. Here is gold, FYI, which has conspicuously made a lower high. This one might want to go into the $3 thousands for a bit.The stock market has this ridiculous Nvidia situation to get through. $4.4 trillion market cap - and that's after the recent pullback. 40 stocks account for something like 60% of the market cap of the five hundred stocks in the S&P. It needs to rebalance, otherwise it's an index of 40 stocks with 460 hangers-on. Corrections are how these things happen.So I am feeling über cautious. There is nothing wrong with having cash in times like this - it means you can buy stuff.On the other hand, the year end rally is approaching - so maybe we should just stay long. As with bitcoin, the way to play the stock market since 2009 when the S&P500 reached 666 - it is ten times that today! - has been simply to hold on through. With so many conflicting messages, it's hard to know what to do. Dolce Far Niente … Italian for HODL.With all that in mind, I want to just skim through some of my speculative positions and give you my latest opinion on them. we are going to look at Metals Exploration (MTL.L), Comstock (LODE.NYSE), Lightbridge (LTBR), Minera Alamos (MAI.V) and more. Time to sell? Time to buy more?Let's see. A review of the speculative portfolioWe'll start with Metals Exploration (MTL.L), my largest position.

Originally recorded as a live X Space and now available as a podcast episode: SALT CEO Hunter Albright joins Bitcoin Magazine's Mark Mason and host Isaiah Austin to dissect Europe's accelerating Bitcoin adoption. From MiCA's regulatory tailwind to nation-state strategic reserves and the surge in BTC-backed lending, this discussion cuts through the noise on where real momentum is building.Europe is outpacing Asia and the US in institutional Bitcoin integration, with small businesses quietly converting revenue to BTC for fast liquidity—no banks required. As digital IDs roll out in the UK, Bitcoin emerges as the clean opt-out for true financial sovereignty. Hunter breaks down SALT's collateralized lending: no credit checks, Shield protection against liquidation, and borrowing against BTC as the smarter path to wealth acceleration. Europe's HODL-lend-treasury hybrid is quietly shaping up as the blueprint for the next bull cycle.

Bitcoin's Correction: Time to Panic or Time to HODL?

Stuff That Interests Me

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.theflyingfrisby.comI've been writing so much about gold and silver lately, I need to cover something else.But my quick take: as seemed likely, gold and silver have gone into one of their corrective phases. This is likely to last several months, in the humble opinion of this writer. There'll be false dawns, which catch everyone out, and false deaths too, with the overall trend being sideways.In the event of a broader stock market correction - which is long overdue given the scale of this rally since the Tariff Tantrum™ in the spring - gold and, especially, silver will sell off along with everything else. That doesn't mean gold isn't a safe haven. It just means there is a lot of hot money in gold, which quickly gets liquidated in a sell-off.But, yes, this incredible rally we have seen in the S&P500 since the Tariff Tantrum™ is looking exhausted and seems to be rolling over.Bitcoin is taking a hit too - although not as big a hit as the broader crypto space - and bitcoin is what I want to look at today.Here is one crypto trader's desk, as pictured on Twitter during Tuesday's sell-off.That's what happens when you use too much leverage.What do they say about taking the emotion out of trading?Bitcoin - what gives?So many things have happened this year which have blown winds in bitcoin's favour* A newly elected US administration which very pro crypto* A deliberately weaker dollar and the debasement trade* The launch of the bitcoin ETFs in the US increasing access to much larger flows of capital* Strength in tech stocks generally* A risk-on appetite* The halving cycleAnd moreYet bitcoin feels like it hasn't quite delivered. A new high of ‘only' $125,000.The latest narrative doing the rounds is this idea that the launch of the bitcoin ETFs is like bitcoin's IPO. Just as when a big tech stock IPOs, a lot of early seed money takes the opportunity to exit, so are many early bitcoin investors - so-called OGs - now moving on. That would explain the many coins that have been moved from previously dormant wallets to exchanges over the last six months.Maybe.What can I say?You can either decide that bitcoin's time is done. It's game over. Move on.Or you can treat this like another of the numerous shake-outs that have taken bitcoin in the 16 years since its inception. The story was getting a bit tired. It needs a shake-out to ruffle a few feathers and purge.The moral of every previous correction can be summed up in 4 letters: HODL.It looks like we may have got a bit of a crypto winter to get through. If the winter reflects the previous summer, then this one shouldn't be too bad. But consolidation phases can be frustrating, so the secret is to be quite zen about the whole thing and keep your eye on the bigger picture.Bitcoin bear markets can be painful, but the beauty of them is that, unlike mining bear markets which can go on for a decade or more, they tend to be short lived.Treat bear markets as opportunities. They're a good time to build positions, build businesses and more. Go and watch some Michael Saylor videos and re-indoctrinate yourself.But on no account lose your position. Bull markets come along when you least expect them.Everything is looking a bit red at the moment - gold, silver, the S&P500, bitcoin. It might be the end of this cycle. but it's not the end of the world.I don't know when or where this bitcoin correction ends. My guess is around $90,000 but that's nothing more than a guess. Perhaps we revisit $75,000 - which is the level we hit during the Tariff Tantrum™ earlier this year.But it's just as possible that dip below $100k on Tuesday was a fake-out, and the bear market is already done.I thought this graphic was interesting.There is plenty more room for future buying as governments and corporations try to increase their positions.By the way I get that some readers like bitcoin and others don't. That's fine. Each to their own. However, if you are in the latter camp, you do not need to email me and tell me bitcoin is not real money/quantum computing is going to destroy it/it is an invention of the deep state/ it is a scam. Please also feel no need to regurgitate Peter Schiff tweets either. You do know he is paid to slag bitcoin off?Turning now to the clusterfook that is the UKBuying bitcoin ETFs in the UK - t he hows, whats and whysIt's semantics, but you can't actually buy ETFs in the UK you have to buy ETNs. I'm not even going to bother trying to explain it. It's regulatory bollocks and not worth wasting time or brain power over.October 8th, the date when the FCA decided UK citizens are allowed to buy bitcoin ETNs is now behind us, but the farce is not.I first found out about bitcoin in December 2010 when it was 22c. I was sent my first coins soon after. I wrote the first book on bitcoin from a recognised publisher in 2014.

The Flying Frisby
Bitcoin's Correction: Time to Panic or Time to HODL?

The Flying Frisby

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.theflyingfrisby.comI've been writing so much about gold and silver lately, I need to cover something else.But my quick take: as seemed likely, gold and silver have gone into one of their corrective phases. This is likely to last several months, in the humble opinion of this writer. There'll be false dawns, which catch everyone out, and false deaths too, with the overall trend being sideways.In the event of a broader stock market correction - which is long overdue given the scale of this rally since the Tariff Tantrum™ in the spring - gold and, especially, silver will sell off along with everything else. That doesn't mean gold isn't a safe haven. It just means there is a lot of hot money in gold, which quickly gets liquidated in a sell-off.But, yes, this incredible rally we have seen in the S&P500 since the Tariff Tantrum™ is looking exhausted and seems to be rolling over.Bitcoin is taking a hit too - although not as big a hit as the broader crypto space - and bitcoin is what I want to look at today.Here is one crypto trader's desk, as pictured on Twitter during Tuesday's sell-off.That's what happens when you use too much leverage.What do they say about taking the emotion out of trading?Bitcoin - what gives?So many things have happened this year which have blown winds in bitcoin's favour* A newly elected US administration which very pro crypto* A deliberately weaker dollar and the debasement trade* The launch of the bitcoin ETFs in the US increasing access to much larger flows of capital* Strength in tech stocks generally* A risk-on appetite* The halving cycleAnd moreYet bitcoin feels like it hasn't quite delivered. A new high of ‘only' $125,000.The latest narrative doing the rounds is this idea that the launch of the bitcoin ETFs is like bitcoin's IPO. Just as when a big tech stock IPOs, a lot of early seed money takes the opportunity to exit, so are many early bitcoin investors - so-called OGs - now moving on. That would explain the many coins that have been moved from previously dormant wallets to exchanges over the last six months.Maybe.What can I say?You can either decide that bitcoin's time is done. It's game over. Move on.Or you can treat this like another of the numerous shake-outs that have taken bitcoin in the 16 years since its inception. The story was getting a bit tired. It needs a shake-out to ruffle a few feathers and purge.The moral of every previous correction can be summed up in 4 letters: HODL.It looks like we may have got a bit of a crypto winter to get through. If the winter reflects the previous summer, then this one shouldn't be too bad. But consolidation phases can be frustrating, so the secret is to be quite zen about the whole thing and keep your eye on the bigger picture.Bitcoin bear markets can be painful, but the beauty of them is that, unlike mining bear markets which can go on for a decade or more, they tend to be short lived.Treat bear markets as opportunities. They're a good time to build positions, build businesses and more. Go and watch some Michael Saylor videos and re-indoctrinate yourself.But on no account lose your position. Bull markets come along when you least expect them.Everything is looking a bit red at the moment - gold, silver, the S&P500, bitcoin. It might be the end of this cycle. but it's not the end of the world.I don't know when or where this bitcoin correction ends. My guess is around $90,000 but that's nothing more than a guess. Perhaps we revisit $75,000 - which is the level we hit during the Tariff Tantrum™ earlier this year.But it's just as possible that dip below $100k on Tuesday was a fake-out, and the bear market is already done.I thought this graphic was interesting.There is plenty more room for future buying as governments and corporations try to increase their positions.By the way I get that some readers like bitcoin and others don't. That's fine. Each to their own. However, if you are in the latter camp, you do not need to email me and tell me bitcoin is not real money/quantum computing is going to destroy it/it is an invention of the deep state/ it is a scam. Please also feel no need to regurgitate Peter Schiff tweets either. You do know he is paid to slag bitcoin off?Turning now to the clusterfook that is the UKBuying bitcoin ETFs in the UK - t he hows, whats and whysIt's semantics, but you can't actually buy ETFs in the UK you have to buy ETNs. I'm not even going to bother trying to explain it. It's regulatory bollocks and not worth wasting time or brain power over.October 8th, the date when the FCA decided UK citizens are allowed to buy bitcoin ETNs is now behind us, but the farce is not.I first found out about bitcoin in December 2010 when it was 22c. I was sent my first coins soon after. I wrote the first book on bitcoin from a recognised publisher in 2014. Yet this morning I just attempted to complete the FCA's form to get me approved to buy a bitcoin ETN - so that I understand the risks - and I failed it. The “correct” answer to their questions is actually the wrong answer. Absolute farce of an organisation and accountable to no one, so it will continue.In the US, meanwhile, JP Morgan is in the process of enabling bitcoin to be used as mortgage collateral.It's like being in Spain in 1492, the ship is setting sail to the New World and somebody from the FCA is standing on the gangplank with a clipboard stopping UK citizens from getting onboard.Amongst the plethora of moronic barriers which the FCA has laid down is that bitcoin carries the same risk as any other cryptocurrency - including the latest meme, scam or shitcoin.

Tuesdays with Morrisey

After a year that put digital assets back in the headlines, long-term Bitcoin adoption is quietly compounding beneath the noise. Unchained reports helping “many thousands” of clients secure roughly $12B in Bitcoin via collaborative custody, while on-chain “HODL waves” data shows that ~60% of all Bitcoin typically hasn't moved in a year or more, signaling growing conviction among holders. For family offices, entrepreneurs, and advisors navigating the alternative asset landscape, that combination of institutional-grade controls and patient capital is reshaping how Bitcoin is owned and used.So the big question becomes: If Bitcoin is maturing as a monetary asset, what does “responsible” Bitcoin finance actually look like—and who will build it?On this first episode of our four-part mini-series on the alternative asset market, Tuesdays with Morrisey host Adam Morrisey welcomes Joseph Kelly, Co-founder and CEO of Unchained, to explore Bitcoin's evolution from tech curiosity to durable balance-sheet asset. In this episode, they discuss the founding story of Unchained, cryptocurrency as an alternative asset class, and emerging practical applications of blockchain technology. Their conversation also covers the market cycles that shaped Unchained's strategy, why collaborative custody redefines the risk equation, and how real-world applications—like payments, lending, and estate planning—are being built on Bitcoin's unique foundation.Key takeaways from the episode…Amidst the noise of rises and falls, meme-coins and YOLO bets, it's an overlooked fact that roughly 60% of Bitcoin is held by people or businesses that have never sold more than 25% of their portfolio.Joe Kelly and his co-founders at Unchained saw an opportunity in 2016 to launch a financial services company to serve long-term holders of Bitcoin, growing to help thousands of clients secure over $12B of assets.The underlying technology of Bitcoin and Blockchain is strong. However, despite its promise, it is still relatively untested in terms of practical application and largely remains a store of value, considered by many to be an essential part of a balanced financial portfolio.The future for Bitcoin is unclear, but many believe it will rise to more commonplace relevance in an increasingly digital, interconnected and global world as massive investments in stablecoins and other applications take center stage.The episode also covers…Joseph's path from tech entrepreneur to Bitcoin builderLessons learned living aboard a sailboat with his familyFounding Unchained in 2016 and early challengesThe philosophy behind collaborative custodyWhy lending against Bitcoin matters for long-term holdersBuilding advisory, IRA, and inheritance planning toolsThe role of lightning, stablecoins, and emerging layer-2sWhy education and usability are key to mass adoptionTrust, reputation, and long-term positioning in financial servicesJoseph Kelly is the Co-founder and CEO of Unchained, a Bitcoin-focused financial services and technology firm known for collaborative custody. A second-time founder who previously built and exited an enterprise data company, Kelly blends technical rigor with conservative risk management. Under his leadership, Unchained has scaled to secure billions in client Bitcoin, offer dollar lending against BTC collateral, deliver IRA and advisory services, and launch a trust company for advanced estate needs.

Holistic Investment w Constantin Kogan

In this must-watch episode of Holistic Investments, host Constantin Kogan sits down with crypto veteran David J. Namdar, CEO of BNB Network Company! With over 10 years in the game, David shares his wild journey: from pitching Bitcoin to Millennium hedge fund in 2013 (and getting rejected for lacking shorts!), co-founding Galaxy Digital with Mike Novogratz during the 2017 bull run, launching the 2nd Bitcoin ETF attempt (right after the Winklevoss twins), and now leading the charge in digital asset treasuries as CEO of BNB Network Company (NASDAQ: BNC).Why BNB? David breaks down why BNB is the "digital equity infrastructure" powering Binance's 290M users and 40% of global crypto trading volume – outpacing Coinbase's market share 8x! Backed by CZ's Easy Labs (largest investor) and Tangem Capital, CA Industries holds the biggest BNB treasury on the planet. Learn how this MicroStrategy-inspired strategy (but for BNB) could 10x your exposure without direct access to Binance in the US. David predicts BNB surpassing XRP by end of 2025 – and why tokenized stocks, 24/7 markets, and AI agents will supercharge BNB Chain over Ethereum.Key Highlights:
