TD₿: Bitcoin's Worst Week Since FTX Collapse... What's Next? - (a Swan original series) with Dante Cook
TL;DR: Bitcoin is a call option for global destabilization, de-dollarization, and wealth redistribution from young to old. Stay calm, humble and keep stacking sats.
Hey Bitcoiners,
Bitcoin had its worst week since the FTX collapse in November 2022. In this episode of Bitcoin Daily, Dante asks… is the bull market over? Or has it even started yet?
Today, regardless of the short-term price, we consider Bitcoin a call option for continued global destabilization, de-dollarization, and the redistribution of wealth from young generations to older ones. It’s time to stay calm and stack on.
Enjoy!
Tick tock next block,
