Crypto Options UnpluggedBitcoin Disappoints in 2025 But The Debasement Trade Is Still On #92In this Christmas episode, Imran and David reflect on a frustrating 2025 for Bitcoin - despite gold/silver moves, ETF inflows and increasingly bullish macro and policy tailwinds. The duo blame persistent whales selling and reflexive “4-year cycle top” concerns for capping the upside. The liquidity outlook is set to brighten in 2026 with the FED’s new T-bill purchases and SLR tweaks for banks to buy more duration. The financial suppression playbook should be fully engaged. They still expect another big debasement wave to hit next year, driving Bitcoin (and risk assets) higher once year-end funding squeezes fade. Stay patient. The st...

Crypto Options UnpluggedWill The Last FOMC of 2025 Trigger A Santa Rally In Crypto #91Bitcoin chops sideways into the final FOMC of 2025 — 25 bps cut is priced to perfection, but the real game is the guidance: will Powell hint at aggressive 2026 cuts and, crucially, confirm front-end liquidity ops (“not-QE QE”) to ease funding stress? Imran & David debate the Bank of Japan headache (hiking into stagflation while forced to buy bonds = yen likely the escape valve) and why dollar-yen ripping to 200+ could actually be bullish for hard assets long-term. Today's special guest was James Check, co-founder of CheckonChain discussing what he's seeing from the on-chain and options world to guide his views into 2026.

Crypto Options UnpluggedBitcoin hits $80K: Is The Pain Over? #89Hosts Imran Lakha (Options Insight) and David Brickell (FRNT) are joined by guest James Van Straten (CoinDesk) this week as Bitcoin bounces off the low-$80Ks after a brutal 35% correction. James explains why the pain felt worse than previous dips this cycle: short-term holders fully underwater, OG whales finally distributing, treasury-company euphoria popped, and the Oct-10 liquidation cascade wiped out leveraged buyers fast. ETFs, however, kept buying the dip — AUM only down ~5% from peak despite the price carnage. James remains convinced that MicroStrategy is NOT about to blow up (converts don’t put until 2027–28), but the treasury-company leverage party is ove...

Crypto Options UnpluggedBitcoin Tests 90k - Hedges Pay Off #88Bitcoin tests $90K as ETF outflows, whale selling and tighter funding markets weigh heavy. Imran & David break down the macro backdrop: Fed speakers turn hawkish, Dec rate-cut odds drop below 50%, equities wobble, liquidity still tight despite government-shutdown end. Hosts expect short-term pain (possible dip to high-$80Ks) but see relief soon from TGA spend-down and potential Fed “not-QE” front-end liquidity ops. Long-term bull thesis unchanged — more money printing coming in 2025–2026. Guest Sam Gaer (CIO, Monarch AM ) explains how he always keeps downside convexity in the book: buys near-the-money puts, sells 2× deep OTM “panic” puts to get paid for protection, delta-hedges...

Cryptocast | BNRDeribit uit Nederland mogelijk voor miljarden overgenomen door Coinbase | 370 ADe Amerikaanse beurswaakhond SEC lijkt de cryptosector een stuk vriendelijker tegemoet te treden dan voorheen. Waarnemend voorzitter Mark Uyeda gaf afgelopen week aan dat er een constructieve benadering nodig is om regelgeving vorm te geven. Dat is een opvallende koerswijziging, want onder Gary Gensler was de SEC uitgesproken vijandig richting crypto. Gensler beschouwde vrijwel elke coin als een effect, met uitzondering van Bitcoin. Hij beriep zich op de zogenaamde Howey Test om coins onder effectenwetgeving te laten vallen, maar die lijn hield in de rechtszaal niet altijd stand. Steeds meer rechtszaken, zoals die tegen Ripple, worden gestaakt. In dat...
