Welcome back to another energy-packed edition of The Bitcoin Street Journal Podcast. I’m Anna, your signal-spitting host from the only corner of the world where fiat dies quietly, while Bitcoin speaks loudly and carries a blockchain. Today’s episode is turbocharged — we’re diving into record whale moves, policy pivots, institutional confessions, and enough crypto drama to make Jamie Dimon lose his monocle.
Bitcoin Live Price Check: Right now, Bitcoin is holding steady at one hundred four thousand, six hundred and eleven dollars. Market dominance? A fierce fifty-five point two percent. And while altcoins take their baby steps, Bitcoin is sprinting like it’s got laser eyes locked on a monetary reset.
Halving Update: Block rewards remain trimmed to three point one two five BTC, and we are deep into the post-halving grind. The supply squeeze is here, and demand just keeps swelling. The math is relentless. The future is programmed.
Let’s start with this gem from Michael Saylor, who calmly reminded everyone, “You don’t diversify away from the best asset ever created.” Exactly. You don’t water down honey with corn syrup. Bitcoin is the apex monetary invention. Diversifying into fiat is like swapping a Rolex for a rubber duck.
Speaking of Saylor, the Financial Times just released a full-blown documentary called Michael Saylor’s $40 Billion Bitcoin Bet. When legacy media starts making films about you instead of mocking you, you’ve crossed into legend.
Meanwhile, on-chain signals are screaming bullish. Only two point four million Bitcoin remain on exchanges. That’s it. Out of twenty-one million. If you’re not holding your own keys, you’re watching history pass you by.
Let’s talk mega-whales: Jack Mallers’ Twenty One Capital and Tether have dropped four hundred fifty-eight point seven million dollars on four thousand eight hundred twelve BTC. They now hold thirty-six thousand, three hundred twelve coins. Their ticker? “XXI” — set to go public via SPAC.
Do your future self a favor: stack sats. Seriously. It’s cheaper than therapy and way more reliable than whatever financial advice Jamie Dimon is giving this week.
And speaking of cluelessness, Katie Martin at the Financial Times has been covering Bitcoin for over seven years — and still admits she doesn’t get it. That’s like watching the sunrise every day and denying the sun exists. Classic fiat brain.
In breaking news, Dave Ramsey’s show — yes, that Dave Ramsey — flipped on Bitcoin. Quote: “Bitcoin has arrived and it’s here to stay. It should be a part of a diversified strategy.” We’re not saying he’s Satoshi now, but hey, welcome to the light, Dave.
Willy Woo dropped a macro bombshell: “Bitcoin is the first new macro asset to be birthed, trading at scale, in one hundred fifty years.” Let that sink in. This isn’t just a tech revolution — it’s a once-in-a-century monetary reset.
Bitwise CIO says Bitcoin is king and predicts BTC will eclipse two hundred thousand dollars this year. And we quote, “The current metrics suggest all-time highs are just the beginning.”
We’re also seeing massive ETF inflows: Over three hundred nineteen million in spot BTC ETFs and over sixty-three million for ETH in a single day. The firehose of institutional capital is fully open.
Altcoin Update: The Ethereum Foundation just launched its “Trillion Dollar Security” initiative to make wallets and smart contracts safer. Bullish for ETH? Maybe. But don’t confuse fancy UX with monetary soundness.
