Hey Bitcoiners,
In this Bitcoin ETF Daily episode, Bitcoin pumps back to $67k amid today's Fed meeting announcement. With the U.S. economy between a rock and a hard place, we unpack the implications of higher for longer and interest rate cuts. Spoiler: They're both bullish for Bitcoin.
Plus, Dante covers how the Ethereum Foundation removes code amid an investigation by the SEC and why the ability to harness computer power may be the difference between who is the world superpower and who isn't.
Enjoy!

Event of the Day
World 2024 - Bitcoin For Corporations
Resorts World, Las Vegas
May 1 - May 2, 2024
Bitcoin for Corporations is a unique opportunity for corporate leaders, financial executives, and technology innovators to discuss the future of Bitcoin in the corporate world. The event features expert advice on how corporations can plug into Bitcoin and reimagine their business directly from the market's most credible voices and experienced practitioners.
This event is hosted by MicroStrategy, a pioneer in Bitcoin adoption. In August 2020, MicroStrategy became the first publicly traded company to acquire and hold Bitcoin as a primary treasury reserve asset on its balance sheet. MicroStrategy paved the way for other companies, such as Block, Inc. and Tesla, to follow.
