Has Bitcoin finally hit bottom? This week, one of the most trusted names in macro gives her honest read on where we are — and where we go from here.
Lyn Alden returns to cut through the noise: why hard assets like Bitcoin and gold have been left behind, and why she says no rescue is coming — Bitcoin has to prove itself on its own. She also breaks down the volatility around Strategy's digital credit and the protocol fight dividing the Bitcoin community.
We discuss:
- Whether Bitcoin has hit its floor — and the lowest sentiment Lyn's ever seen
- Why Bitcoin proxies and leveraged products can't replace real, self-custodied Bitcoin
- What actually happened with Strategy's $STRC — and how worried holders should be
- Her grounded take on the protocol wars, and why the "existential threat" talk is overblown
- Why the big money print everyone's waiting for still isn't coming
