Podcasts about MicroStrategy

This week on Market Mondays we're getting tactical and long-term: your futures trading tip of the week, the biggest mistakes younger investors make chasing fast wins, and the most important investing lessons this year reinforced. We also get personal about the mindset shifts that matter—what we used to disagree with early on, then changed our mind about later, and the questions people should be asking if they actually want to build wealth over decades (not just catch a lucky trade).Then we dive into what's moving markets right now: Oracle as a business and investment, whether the AI narrative tied to SoftBank/OpenAI has pushed expectations too far, and what really caused Friday's sell-off—plus whether it quietly changed market structure more than most people realize. We break down the Coinbase vs. MicroStrategy vs. IBIT debate, talk about whether we're headed toward a real correction or just another emotional shakeout, and if the market is broadening beyond tech or setting up a head fake before leadership narrows again.We also hit the high-volatility conversations: Super Micro's relevance in AI infrastructure, how elite traders handle ES and NQ moving in sync, and whether leveraged ETFs like NVDL/AMDL are advanced tools—or long-term portfolio destroyers in disguise. Plus: quantum computing (obvious leaders vs. sleeper names), and a real discussion on how to balance fitness, family, investing, travel, and content creation without burning out. And we're joined by Derrick Hayes to talk about his business journey and what it really takes to scale.#MarketMondays #Investing #Stocks #FuturesTrading #DayTrading #LongTermInvesting #FinancialLiteracy #WealthBuilding #AI #Oracle #Crypto #Bitcoin #Coinbase #MicroStrategy #IBIT #ETFs #LeveragedETFs #NVDL #AMDL #TechStocks #MarketNews #TradingPsychology #RiskManagement #QuantumComputing #Entrepreneurship #DerrickHayes #EarnYourLeisureSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Crypto Town Hall's latest session focused on current trends in crypto markets, macroeconomic factors, and the evolving intersection between crypto and mainstream finance. The panel of regular contributors and guest experts discussed Bitcoin's recent price action, MicroStrategy's ongoing Bitcoin acquisitions, regulatory developments, and the impact of AI startups on liquidity and investment flows. Participants explored market sentiment, execution strategies, tokenization, stablecoin adoption, and the question of whether the crypto sector is entering or exiting a "winter". The goal was to provide market perspectives, debate narratives, and equip listeners with actionable insights.

Pierre Rochard joins the Bitcoin Infinity Show to talk about Bitcoin's financial evolution, from his early Lightning Network innovations to defending miners against political attacks and now leading the charge on corporate treasury companies like MicroStrategy and Riot. They dive into the debate over self-custody versus financialized Bitcoin products, the risks and rewards of leveraging debt to stack BTC, and how bridging fiat institutions could accelerate adoption in a world where fiat's collapse looms. This episode unpacks why option value and competitive products might reshape Bitcoin's future, even as self-sovereignty remains the ultimate ideal.

Today's episode examines Washington's increasingly public admission that the market-structure bill is stuck, with key senators signaling that negotiations have become frustrating and unlikely to resolve this year. From there the focus turns to MicroStrategy's return to large-scale Bitcoin purchases, the funding mechanics behind it, and the growing debate over whether the company is executing long-term strategy or edging into risk.

This could be your best trade of the year! Join us as we share December secrets for your portfolio. We also talk about the shifting narratives around climate change, deregulation, and rising energy demand driven by AI. We also explore expectations for low energy prices through the election cycle, concerns about an AI-driven bubble, the continued K-shaped economy, and tactical investing insights such as exploiting year-end tax-loss selling, watching beaten-down sectors, monitoring insider buying, and recognizing mutual-fund distribution dips. We discuss... Political climate influences environmental narratives, pointing out that media references to "climate crisis" suddenly dropped as energy demand pressures changed. The explosion of AI data centers has quietly forced policymakers to pivot from anti-energy rhetoric to encouraging more electricity production and deregulation. How AI companies are now some of the largest new consumers of electricity, making cheap, abundant power a strategic priority for the tech sector. Energy prices are being politically managed to stay low into the midterm elections to keep inflation optics favorable. While AI valuations are stretched, there's unlikely to be an immediate bubble burst because capital flows and earnings momentum remain supportive. How end-of-year tax-loss harvesting creates forced selling in beaten-down stocks, temporarily pushing prices below fair value. Mutual funds selling to raise cash for capital-gains distributions can generate artificial dips that offer tactical buying windows for informed investors. Insider-buying activity is a useful signal in December, since executives often buy when their stock is mispriced due to seasonal pressures. A simple long-term Bitcoin approach: buy when it collapses on fear, hold through chop, and scale out when it becomes euphoric and parabolic. Concerns about the systemic risk attached to MicroStrategy's leveraged Bitcoin balance sheet and how a sharp BTC drawdown could spark forced selling. How crypto ETFs, institutional custody, and Wall Street participation may reduce volatility over time but also increase susceptibility to coordinated market moves. How markets today reward patience, skepticism, and tactical opportunism more than blind buy-and-hold in all sectors.   Today's Panelists: Kirk Chisholm | Innovative Wealth Douglas Heagren | Mergent College Advisors Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/moneytreepodcast Follow LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/money-tree-investing-podcast Follow on Twitter/X: https://x.com/MTIPodcast For more information, visit the show notes at https://moneytreepodcast.com/best-trade-of-the-year-771

For years, firms like MicroStrategy turned buying Bitcoin into a corporate cheat code—raising billions, pumping token prices, and fueling meme-driven hype. But the magic loop has snapped. In this video, we break down why the “infinite money glitch” stopped working, how leveraged ETFs magnified losses, and why even Michael Saylor is now hoarding dollars. From gamma trades to meme economics, this is the story of how hype capitalism hit a wall.Zeke Faux on  Good Work : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=exoNex2Yn5wPatrick's Books:Statistics For The Trading Floor: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amzn.to/3eerLA0⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Derivatives For The Trading Floor: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://amzn.to/3cjsyPF⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Corporate Finance: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amzn.to/3fn3rvC ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ways To Support The Channel:Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/PatrickBoyleOnFinance⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Buy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/patrickboyle

I am excited to share this conversation with my good friend and investor, Michael Novogratz, to discuss the latest in the state of the markets. We are experimenting with a new format, so please send us your feedback if you have any. This conversation strips away the pretense around Bitcoin's volatility, MicroStrategy's leveraged gamble, and the mainstreaming of speculation with two Wall Street veterans who've traded through every crash and euphoria. From forced liquidation fears to prediction markets disrupting casinos and the slow invasion of crypto into trillion-dollar wealth channels, it's a blunt, unvarnished look at how risk, regulation, and the normalization of gambling are reshaping markets right now.

This week, Skippy & Doogles unpack Burry's latest market outlook, shady behavior in prediction markets, and the bizarre death (yes, death) of TiVo.

This Friday 5 runs through a week defined by Larry Fink's renewed tokenization push, MicroStrategy's move to eliminate default risk, major wealth platforms finally opening their doors to Bitcoin, and a macro backdrop where liquidity interventions are starting to matter again. It all culminates in a price week that didn't resolve the bear case but made the conversation far more interesting, with volatility returning even if direction hasn't. Headlines include: BlackRock's policy-facing tokenization thesis, MicroStrategy's $1.4B buffer, Vanguard and Bank of America shifting access, and the Fed's early signals on easing.

Niels and Alan explore how a fragile macro regime reshapes systematic investing, from a politicised Fed succession to widening cracks in a debt-laden, equity-dependent economy. A shifting bond landscape, rising capital demands from AI and renewed tariff risks challenge the old 60/40 orthodoxy. Listener questions on US policy shocks and the Yen carry trade open a deeper look at when trend helps and when it hurts. The episode culminates in a world exclusive of SocGen's 2026 index changes and the first public reveal of Alan's new paper: The Regime-Adaptive Portfolio, for genuinely resilient, opportunity-aware global wealth compounding intelligently, prudently over the decade ahead.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Alan on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps:00:00 - Voiceover and introduction to the Systematic Investor Series00:23 - Niels and Alan open, what is on their radar this week01:27 - Fed succession as a political risk factor and betting markets03:33 - Crypto moves, Vanguard's platform shift and MicroStrategy index pressure05:53 - Listener questions: can constant US policy shocks break trend?06:33 - Trouble for trend or just another regime to endure and adapt to08:55 - Short-term CTAs, Liberation Day and when speed becomes a handicap11:11 - How CTAs are positioned for a yen carry unwind and JGB nuances12:16 - November trend update, five straight positive months and short-term pain13:35 - World exclusive: new SocGen CTA and...

We have gone through four industrial revolutions in the US, why does the AI revolution scare us the most? Industrial revolutions are nothing new in the United States as we have had four including the current one we are in. The first one came in the mid-18th century when changes came for waterpower, steam engines, and textile manufacturing. The second industrial revolution was in the mid-19th century when steel became a big factor along with electricity and mass production. We also saw transportation by railroads and automobiles during this revolution. The third industrial revolution came around the mid-1990s. Some of us who are 50 years or older may remember the effects. Electronics including personal computers, information technologies, and this scary thing called the World Wide Web were developed during this revolution. The fourth industrial revolution is happening now and it's scary because we don't know what the future holds. This revolution includes digital, physical, and biological technologies. This includes AI, the Internet of Things, and robotics as well. The reason this is scarier than the third revolution with personal computers was that people could see how they could benefit and get more done and maybe use that computer to start a web-based business. Currently with AI, people are not seeing how it will benefit or improve their lives but only how it could take away their livelihood by making their job obsolete. There could be a slowdown in the advancement of AI similar to what happened in the late 70s with nuclear power. People as a whole rejected nuclear power, and it has taken almost 50 years to be accepted as we can see in today's newspapers. Based on history, it looks like the acceptance of AI may slow down because polls show that just 40% of people said the AI industry could be trusted to do the right thing, and 57% say the government needs more regulation on tech and AI. Maybe your job is safe for longer than you thought.   Bitcoin holder Strategy should be getting nervous about the price of Bitcoin The public company Strategy, which used to be known as MicroStrategy and trades under the symbol MSTR, should be getting nervous about its 650,000 Bitcoins that are worth around $56 billion depending on the day. The problem is the company has about $8 billion of convertible bonds outstanding that require interest payments and about $7.6 billion of perpetual preferred stock that also pays dividends. The cost to pay the interest and these dividends is about $780 million annually and since all the company's assets are essentially in Bitcoin, they don't receive any interest or profits from that asset. The CEO, Michael Slayer, is saying if they must, they will sell Bitcoin to raise the cash to pay the dividends and interest payments. The convertible bonds could also be problematic down the road as they are due in about 4.4 years on average and come with a combined interest rate of 0.421%. The stock itself has been pulverized, and its market cap has been as low as $49 billion from a high of $128 billion in July. MSCI has proposed cutting digital asset treasury companies from its indexes if crypto tokens make up a major part of the assets. This decision will come in a little over a month on January 15th and if this happens, Strategy could see $2.8 billion in passive outflows. JPMorgan estimates that about $9 billion of the company's market cap is tied to passive and index ETFs and mutual funds. This could put more pressure on the stock if more indexes also decide to remove these treasury companies. You won't believe how the company makes their profit and loss statement. When the price of Bitcoin rises, the company books a paper profit even if it did not sell any Bitcoin. Obviously, if Bitcoin goes down in value, they must book the losses as well. One must love the estimates for the earnings of Strategy for 2025.  Strategy is expected to report a loss of $5.5 billion or a profit of $6.3 billion or something in between. That is some great guidance! I don't know where Bitcoin is going today, tomorrow or anytime in the future, but I would be sweating bullets if I held Bitcoin or Strategy in my clients' portfolios or my portfolio!   Holiday shopping hits record levels! We continue to see conflicting data when it comes to the health of the consumer. They continue to say they don't feel good, but the hard data and the actual numbers remain quite strong. In a positive note from the National Retail Federation (NRF), an estimated 202.9 million consumers shopped during the five-day stretch from Thanksgiving Day through Cyber Monday. That is the largest turnout since data for the five-day period started being collected in 2017, and it easily tops last year's level of 197 million shoppers. Expectations for the period were also quite low considering the estimate was for just 186.9 million shoppers. While online shoppers increased 9% year over year to 134.9 million people, in-store shoppers still saw a nice increase of 3% to 129.5 million people. Adobe also provided sales data for the five-day period that indicated consumers spent $44.2 billion online, which was a 7.7% year-over-year jump. Black Friday in particular saw strong online sales as they totaled $11.8 billion and grew by 9.1% year over year. A big question here is if the shopping was done to capitalize on deals in an attempt to save money. That could be an indicator of a weaker economy, but I don't believe that's the full story as shoppers told NRF at the end of Cyber Monday that they had about 53% of their holiday shopping remaining, which was similar to a year ago. For the full holiday season, the NRF expects record sales of between $1.1 trillion and $1.2 trillion from Nov. 1 through Dec. 31. This would be the first time sales would top $1 trillion, and it would represent a 3.7% to 4.2% increase from the year-ago holiday period.    Financial Planning: When Tax-Loss Harvesting Makes Sense and When It Doesn't Tax-loss harvesting is often promoted as a smart tax-saving strategy, but investors should understand its pitfalls before hitting the sell button. Selling a position at a loss may reduce taxes today, but it could also mean missing a rebound in that investment potentially costing more in lost gains than the tax benefit received. For example, if an investor buys a stock for $50,000 and harvests a $5,000 loss when the investment drops to $45,000, and they are in a 24.3% combined tax bracket (15% federal + 9.3% state), the tax savings is just over $1,200. That means the investment only needs to rise 2.7% to wipe out the benefit of harvesting, something that could easily occur during the required 30-day wash-sale waiting period. Even if the position doesn't rebound, repurchasing after 31 days locks in a lower cost basis, potentially increasing future taxable gains possibly in a higher tax bracket. Many investors, especially retirees with lower taxable income, are already in the 0% long-term capital gains bracket, meaning losses may not even be needed; a married couple in retirement could have income near $150,000 and still realize long-term gains tax-free. Tax-loss harvesting can still be valuable when losses are large in percentage terms, when it helps avoid a higher tax bracket or IRMAA surcharges, when offsetting short-term gains (which long-term losses can do), or when exiting a position you don't plan to repurchase.   Companies Discussed: Weyerhaeuser Company (WY), Netflix, Inc.

We dive deep into the real tensions shaping the crypto landscape, from Bitcoin's security budget and miner incentives to the rise of arbitrary L1 chains playing the same old ICO game. We explore why NAT and Digital Matter Theory offer a fundamentally different path forward and put the entire crypto ecosystem through what we call the “Alien Test”: if an advanced civilization judged humanity by our digital assets, which technologies would actually pass? We break down the psychology of how people solve problems, why non-arbitrary tokens matter, and how space computing, satellites, and the Type-1 civilization shift directly connect to where Bitcoin mining is headed next. The conversation expands into NAT branding, the Dyson sphere narrative, decentralization risks, the flash crash, and new pressures facing institutional trading desks. We also cover MicroStrategy's positioning, market maker wipeouts, and why the industry keeps repeating the same patterns with new chains. If you're trying to understand how Bitcoin, miner incentives, NAT adoption, and the broader space race fit together, this episode maps out the entire picture. Stay to the end as we address the most common criticisms of NAT and highlight community thinkers like Rossi who continue pushing the conversation forward. Welcome to another chaotic-smart, high-signal episode right before Thanksgiving. Enjoy. Topics: First up, diving deep into the real tensions shaping the crypto landscape, from Bitcoin's security budget and miner incentives to the rise of arbitrary L1 chains Next, breaking down the psychology of how people solve problems, why non-arbitrary tokens matter, and the Type-1 civilization shift directly connect to where Bitcoin mining is headed next and Finally, covering MicroStrategy's positioning, market maker wipeouts, and why the industry keeps repeating the same patterns with new chains Please like and subscribe on your favorite podcasting app!

Od oktobra je iz kripto trga izpuhtelo več kot tisoč milijard dolarjev tržne kapitalizacije, bitcoin je z rekordnih 126.000 dolarjev upadel na okoli 80.000 tisoč, ta hip se vrti okoli 94.000 dolarjev. Je to začetek okrevanja ali le kratkotrajen odboj po velikem padcu oziroma t.im. relief rally? Epizoda je bila posneta v živo in je že objavljena na Youtube https://www.youtube.com/live/mEA9Y0EQanM V epizodi razčlenimo: – zakaj je sentiment na trgu še vedno krhek, – ali smo tik pred novo kripto zimo, – ali lahko Strategy (nekdanji MicroStrategy), katerega delnica je upadla za 75 odstotkov z vrha, s svojo ogromno zalogo bitcoina povzroči šok na trgu, – kako je kriptozlom izbrisal milijardo dolarjev premoženja družine Trump, a jim hkrati prinesel stotine milijonov, – zakaj je Vanguard po letih odpora nenadoma odprl vrata kriptu, – katere strategije ubrati in kako reinvestirati kripto dobičke, – ter kako januarja 2026 prihaja največji regulativni premik do zdaj – t. i. innovation exemption, ki lahko kripto povsem potisne v mainstream… ali pa odpre vrata novemu valu prevar. Ali bo leto 2026 leto stabilizacije ali leto najbolj divjega kripto cikla doslej?

Welcome to The Chopping Block — where Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner cover crypto's biggest moments. This week we're joined by Kevin from the Monad Foundation as we dig into the most chaotic token launch of the year. Monad goes live, CT explodes, and the tokenomics wars come roaring back — vesting, float, FDV, and why everything “just keeps going down.” We break down whether the world actually needs another L1, how hype creates impossible expectations, and how Kevin and the Monad team are handling the spotlight — and the hate. Then we shift to security chaos: Yearn's underflow hack, Anthropic's AI discovering real smart contract vulnerabilities, and “post-quantum” panic sweeping Crypto Twitter. Plus: BTC volatility, MicroStrategy drama, and prediction markets suddenly going mainstream. Show highlights

What if the most important market move happening right now… isn't the one you're watching?In this month's technical analysis segment with Mike Arnold, Chief Strategist of Path Trading Partners—and the guy Jim says “basically directs almost all my investments at this point.” Today, he joins Jim Iuorio and Bob Iaccino for another no-BS, caffeine-fueled breakdown of what's actually happening beneath the charts.In this episode of the Futures Edge, we dive straight into the volatility storm:

December 2, 2025 - Zach and Chase discuss the current state of the market, focusing on key metrics such as the S&P, VIX, and Bitcoin. They delve into the implications of volatility, the importance of technical analysis, and the balance between fundamentals and technicals in investing. The conversation also touches on the role of retail investors, the evaluation of investment strategies, and a critical analysis of Bitcoin and MicroStrategy. Additionally, they explore geopolitical tensions and their economic implications, concluding with insights on retail investment trends and case studies.

In this episode of the Crypto 101 Rundown, Tevo and Brian break down a major post-Thanksgiving market rebound as Bitcoin rockets from $84K to $92K despite extreme-fear sentiment. They highlight huge bullish catalysts—Vanguard finally enabling crypto ETFs, Bank of America recommending a 1–4% allocation, and whales aggressively accumulating during the dip. The discussion also covers strengthening U.S. regulatory momentum, including the FDIC's movement on stablecoin frameworks and rising institutional adoption from JPMorgan and others. The show wraps with updates on MicroStrategy's cash moves, Ethereum's upcoming upgrade, and community favorites like Pudgy Penguins and HyperLiquid gaining traction. Get my #1 altcoin pick for this month. Check out Plus500: https://plus500.comEfani Sim Swap Protection: Get $99 Off: http://efani.comcrypto101Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code CRYPTO101 for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.comCheck out Quince: https://quince.com/CRYPTO101Check out Gemini Exchange: https://gemini.com/cardThe Gemini Credit Card is issued by WebBank.

This week on Market Mondays, we're breaking down the biggest moves in investing, crypto, and global markets. We cover the futures trading tip of the week, this year's most important investing lesson, and why Bitcoin's drop to $85,000 has traders in “extreme fear.” We debate whether the bottom is close, if a fall to $70K or even $65K is realistic, and why MicroStrategy trading below the value of its own Bitcoin may signal either a loss of institutional confidence or the best buying opportunity of the cycle. We also unpack whether Ethereum could fall under $2,000 and how December's market behavior might preview what 2026 looks like.We explore one of the most important conversations for any entrepreneur or investor: If you lost everything tomorrow, what are your first five moves? Ian and Rashad lay out the fastest, most realistic path to rebuilding from zero. We also break down whether to prioritize dividends or growth in today's economy, how much company stock someone at Microsoft should realistically hold, and whether $70K Bitcoin is still a real near-term target. On the macro side, Japan's 10-year yield hits 1.84% (highest since 2008), potentially signaling the end of the global carry trade — with major implications for U.S. stocks, tech, and crypto.We close with silver hitting $59 for the first time ever, posting a 100%+ yearly gain — is now the time to invest? Plus, we review new data revealing the minimum income needed to live comfortably in 2025, with rising housing, food, and healthcare costs reshaping what financial stability really means. And we're joined by Jason Gyama, Founder of the Quarter Zip Movement, bringing strategy, energy, and culture to the conversation.Market Mondays Cyber Monday Deal (48 Hours Only): https://marketmondaysdeal.com#MarketMondays #Investing #Bitcoin #Crypto #Ethereum #StockMarket #Silver #WealthBuilding #Finance #EYL #QuarterZipMovementOur Sponsors:* Check out Square: https://square.com/go/eylSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

November just logged Bitcoin's ugliest performance since 2018, with a seasonally strong month instead turning into a mini crypto winter driven by thin liquidity, excess leverage, and global macro jitters from Japan to the Fed. This episode digs into what really caused the drawdown, whether the pain is flushing out the froth ahead of a healthier 2026, and how to think about the latest macro correlations—plus a fresh round of Tether FUD, new clarity from MicroStrategy on what would actually make them sell, and a mysterious Bitcoin move from SpaceX.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 041: JP Morgan & BlackRock's Coordinated Attack on MicroStrategy Exposed – Banking Cartel vs Michael Saylor's Bitcoin Empire | Brandon Keys (Green Candle)MicroStrategy (MSTR) is under full-scale assault. Brandon Keys, the on-chain wizard and voice behind Green Candle Investments, just dropped undeniable evidence that JP Morgan, Jamie Dimon, BlackRock, and Larry Fink are orchestrating a six-month coordinated attack to crush Michael Saylor's Bitcoin treasury strategy and stop corporations from ditching cash for Bitcoin forever. From sudden margin hikes and MSCI exclusions to “bit bonds” designed to funnel money away from MSTR, the banking cartel is terrified: if Saylor wins, they become obsolete. Yet despite the manipulation, Brandon reveals why this dip is the biggest buying opportunity in years and why, in the end, Bitcoin still wins.Key Topics:Timeline proof of the coordinated attack on MicroStrategy & Bitcoin treasury companiesWhy Jamie Dimon flipped from calling Bitcoin a “pet rock” to quietly attacking MSTRBlackRock & JP Morgan's $500 trillion endgame and “bit bonds” counterattackHow banks are debanking Bitcoin CEOs to reclaim controlOn-chain data showing whales are buying the dip while retail panicsWhy the death of the 4-year cycle is actually bullishSelf-custody: the only way to defeat the banking cartelMacro outlook: money printer incoming and why we're still insanely earlyChapters:00:00 Teaser – “It's been nothing less of a coordinated attack”01:39 Guest Intro – Brandon Keys (Green Candle)02:04 Jamie Dimon's 10-year war on Bitcoin03:28 JP Morgan's sudden margin hike & 25% MSTR drop04:41 MSCI ruling & billions in threatened outflows06:32 Naming only MicroStrategy out of 40 companies07:47 Banks terrified: companies can replace cash with Bitcoin09:14 BlackRock's “bit bonds” & borrow-against-iBit play10:19 The $500 trillion market Saylor is targeting11:08 Banking cartel united against Michael Saylor14:43 Debanking Bitcoin CEOs – Jack Mallers, Swan, Canada17:04 Global macro stress & Bitcoin as most liquid asset19:17 Whales accumulating, retail selling the dip22:09 Self-custody is Bitcoin's true power26:19 We are still insanely early in adoption32:31 Hold 4–5 years = zero fiat losses35:44 Money printer coming soon46:56 Tether, stablecoins & the new dollar recycling scheme52:28 Final message – Self-custody or get rekt by the cartelAbout Brandon Keys:Bitcoin strategist, on-chain analyst, and founder of Green Candle InvestmentsX: @Greencandleit; @keysopen_doorsGreen Candle YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@greencandlePrevious Episode:Bitcoin Privacy Under Attack – Dr. Jack Kruse: https://youtu.be/A0onGcn17fQ

En este episodio me siento frente al micrófono para hablar sin filtros sobre el momento más tenso que hemos visto en años dentro del mundo cripto. Bitcoin cayó de 125 a 80 mil dólares, las liquidaciones han sido históricas, el apalancamiento explotó y el miedo está tomando control del mercado. Pero detrás de ese caos hay señales importantes y también oportunidades. Explico qué hay detrás del colapso actual, quiénes podrían estar “nadando desnudos”, cómo se está comportando el flujo de los ETFs, qué significa esto para proyectos como Solana, Sui, Hype, Aave, y cuál es el verdadero estado del daño sistémico que enfrenta la industria. También comparto mi estrategia personal: por qué compré MicroStrategy y BitMine, cómo pienso el largo plazo y por qué sigo creyendo que 2026 puede ser un año clave para cripto. Si estás sintiendo presión, miedo o incertidumbre, este episodio es para ti.

In this episode we answer emails from Grant, Brian, and Mourad.  We unpack Grant's various gambling problems with leveraged ETFs and Bitcoin wrappers, owning gold in CAD or USD for Canadians, the role of preferred shares and Mourad's recent visit to the Father McKenna Center.Links:Father McKenna Center Donation Page:  Donate - Father McKenna CenterChoose FI Podcast #574:  Top Five Regrets of the Dying (Book Club with Frank Vasquez and Ginger) | Ep 574Mary's CASA Case Adoption Story:  The Johnson's Foster Care & Adoption StoryPortfolio Charts Global Analysis:  What Global Withdrawal Rates Teach Us About Ideal Retirement Portfolios – Portfolio ChartsBreathless Unedited AI-Bot Summary:Ever been tempted by a product that promises steady price, double‑digit yield, and exposure to the hottest asset on earth? We take a hard look at leveraged ETFs, Bitcoin‑linked strategies, and engineered income, then draw a clean line between thrill and risk you can actually carry. Grant checks in with a levered twist on the Golden Butterfly, swapping UPRO for TQQQ and TNA, and we explain why the Russell small cap complex often hides junky growth that fails to diversify when you need it most. If you want real balance, pair concentrated growth with genuine value or defensives, not a label that only looks like value on a factsheet.We also break down MicroStrategy's stock behavior versus spot Bitcoin and explore STRC, the “preferred” fund aiming to keep price near par while dialing a high payout. The headline yield is labeled return of capital, which may defer taxes but doesn't manufacture wealth if the underlying can't out-earn distributions. When the tide turns, structures like this tend to leak value, especially if they rely on direction and volatility to cooperate. If your goal is Bitcoin exposure, owning a spot ETF is usually cleaner and more predictable than chasing premium/discount dynamics or engineered yield.For Canadian listeners, we make the case for treating gold as a currency and holding it in CAD to match real-world spending, reducing the noise of USD/CAD swings. Bonds are different: long U.S. Treasuries remain premier crisis ballast thanks to reserve currency demand. We review a thoughtful 50% equity risk‑parity‑style allocation targeting a 5% withdrawal rate, flag why a heavy preferred shares sleeve can be a drag, and suggest shifting part of that into long duration Treasuries, more gold, or a true diversifier like managed futures. Want portfolios that survive the cycle? Favor transparent exposures, honest hedges, and tools like Portfolio Charts to pressure‑test your mix across currencies.If this helped sharpen your plan, follow the show, share it with a friend who loves complex wrappers, and leave a quick review so more DIY investors can find us.Support the show

We broke down the real Bitcoin buy levels, MicroStrategy's worst 5-month streak ever, and whether this is a red flag or the buying opportunity of a lifetime. We also discussed what the “American Dream” should look like today if homeownership feels out of reach, and whether dropping $1M into QQQI or SPYI for monthly dividend income is a smart path to financial freedom. Plus, we examined global tensions between China, Taiwan, and Japan, and the impact these conflicts could have on markets in the coming years.We also dove deep into investor psychology — how to stay disciplined when targets don't hit, how to avoid FOMO during red markets, and whether to dollar-cost average or wait for pullbacks in 2025. We covered Novo's epic fall, Dogecoin's collapse, and the growing national debt crisis that could reshape investor strategy for the next decade.

Bitcoin's volatility and MSTR stock with Strategy Founder and Executive Chairman Michael Saylor. Strategy Founder & Executive Chairman Michael Saylor joins us to discuss bitcoin's sharp decline to nearly $80,000, calling the volatility "Satoshi's gift" and a necessary "feature" for performance. He argues that investors need a 4 to 10-year time horizon and defends MicroStrategy's stock and financial resilience against index exclusion rumors and market noise. Saylor stresses that the long-term fundamentals of digital capital and financial sovereignty will override near-term pain. - Break the cycle of exploitation. Break down the barriers to truth.

This episode opens with a warning to younger investors who take TikTok advice over historical perspective, especially around claiming Social Security early. Don and Tom walk through the guaranteed 8%+inflation benefit increase from delaying, why “take it at 62 and invest it” collapses under market reality, and how fear is driving a surge in early claims. They pivot to Bitcoin's sharp drop and why crypto speculation is driven by greed, not protection, before teasing Don's upcoming crypto short story. Listener questions cover bad long-term-care/annuity hybrids, overcomplicated “bucket” strategies, responsible portfolio risk, and finally a breakdown of two expensive high-volatility mutual funds—both easily beaten by low-cost index alternatives. 0:04 Message to younger investors about lacking market perspective 1:19 Why TikTok advice on claiming Social Security early is flawed 2:17 The real 8%+inflation annual increase from delaying benefits 2:27 The “take it at 62 and invest it” myth 3:47 Tom recounts Paul Merriman calling his allocation aggressive 4:49 Rising panic-driven Social Security filings 5:21 Don's 69 vs. 70 claiming decision 6:11 Survivor benefit logic many forget 7:42 Imagining a sudden 30% crash—except it's Bitcoin 8:29 Bitcoin's drop from 124K to mid-80s, plus MicroStrategy leverage 9:58 Crypto culture, crypto research, and Don's upcoming story 10:58 Crypto as a greed play, not protection 12:37 Emotions sabotage investing; the plan removes them 13:51 Why risk needs to match the plan, not ego 15:24 Crypto story teaser + Short Storyverses email plug 16:31 Listener question: NY Life Asset Flex LTC pitch 17:49 Why hybrid LTC/annuity products are weak and commission-heavy 19:47 “Bucket” confusion and the need for purpose 21:30 Caller Eugene: $250K “play money” 23:43 Reality check: could you watch $250K drop to $125K? 24:06 Why timing dips doesn't work 25:20 Better uses for excess cash in your 70s 27:08 Tom: time for full planning review at age 77 28:38 Fund analysis: Morgan Stanley Growth A 29:25 Fund analysis: Invesco Equity & Income A 30:30 Why moving to low-cost Vanguard indexes is the logical move Learn more about your ad choices.

Bitcoin's down 30%, ETF holders are underwater, and treasury companies are struggling. Colin and Charlie break down the anatomy of the November 2025 crash and what it means for miners, leverage plays, and your portfolio. Colin and Charlie break down the brutal November 2025 Bitcoin selloff. With BTC trading at $87K, the average ETF holder is now underwater, hash prices are at all-time lows, and treasury companies like MicroStrategy and Nokia are facing serious headwinds.

The Chopping Block unpacks crypto's DATpocalypse — NAVs collapsing, volumes drying up, and consolidation on the horizon. Plus: Vitalik sparks a wave of quantum panic, what Q-Day really means for Bitcoin and smart-contract chains, and why “qubits per share” might become the next great crypto meme. Welcome to The Chopping Block — where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This episode opens with the DATpocalypse: almost every DAT is now below NAV, volumes have collapsed outside Bitmine and MicroStrategy, and the market is finally confronting what happens when issuances outrun demand. We get into consolidation talk, preferred-share experiments, capital-structure pivots, and whether any DAT should actually be selling crypto to buy back shares at a discount. Then we shift into quantum mania. Vitalik's “2028” comment lit up Q-Day fears, and we separate genuine hardware progress from pure panic. We discuss why post-quantum upgrades are simple for Bitcoin but brutal for stateful chains, and how hype alone could trigger a wave of “quantum-resistant” speculation. And yes — the running gag: DATs using quantum machines to steal Satoshi's coins. Tough markets, weird narratives, and institutions quietly holding the line. Let's get into it. Show highlights

Bitcoin's slide has the entire market asking the same question: is this the beginning of real trouble, or the setup for the biggest buying opportunity of the year? This week on Market Mondays, we break down the volatility across crypto, AI, and equities as investors brace for major moves. From Peter Thiel unloading all his Nvidia and cutting 76% of his Tesla stake, to MicroStrategy trading below its net asset value, we analyze whether these are smart exits or signals of deeper cracks forming in the system.At the same time, the tech world is flashing warning signs—Meta is down 23%, Palantir is down 16%, and CoreWeave has crashed over 50%. With Nvidia reporting this week, the entire S&P 500 feels like it's tied to a single stock. Are we watching an AI bubble quietly deflate, or a temporary shakeout before the next run? Meanwhile, consumer discretionary is having its worst month in six months and financial stocks are hitting new highs. We break down whether this rotation into safety is healthy, or a setup for a major reversal.We close the episode with the biggest opportunities hiding in the chaos: which distressed assets might actually be long-term winners, why the bond market is having its strongest year since 2020, and what these signals mean heading into Black Friday and 2026. Plus—we share our hot takes on investing that most people don't agree with.
