My hope on this episode was to better understand the driving forces that have caused the downturn in crypto markets over the last several months, and get a feel for where cryptocurrencies are heading into the future.

We covered quite a few topics in this discussion, including:

  • The reasons for the crypto collapse
  • Why bitcoin and cryptos have been directly correlated to equity markets
  • The market correlations between crypto prices and quantitative easing/tightening
  • How institutional investors are allocating bitcoin in their portfolios
  • What has to happen for bitcoin to reach $60k again
  • If bitcoin can be a global currency in the future
  • Which alt-coins to keep an eye out for!
