In this episode:

In Episode 219 of The Bitcoin Fortress Podcast, we break down one of the most volatile weeks Bitcoin has seen in months. We examine the sharp price correction, record ETF outflows, rising Treasury yields, and what tightening liquidity conditions may mean for Bitcoin going forward. We discuss Strategy's first Bitcoin sale since 2022, the growing risks and opportunities surrounding Bitcoin treasury companies, corporate accumulation from firms like Strive, the latest developments in the CLARITY Act and stablecoin legislation, mining and network fundamentals, and the major themes emerging from Bitcoin 2026 and the broader Bitcoin podcast universe. We also feature Week 3 of the "A Bitcoin Way of Life" series and discuss why conviction matters most when markets test it.
