    Macro Concerns? Crypto’s Bull Case vs. Rising Rates

    30/09/2026 | 39 mins.
    Crypto is acting like a bull market even as macro risks keep building. Mike and Ryan break down why Bitcoin and altcoins are shrugging off rising yields, rate-hike fears, and oil volatility, what the market reset is signaling, and why Mike still believes crypto is early in a new cycle. They also cover the risks that could finally challenge that view.

    Is the "Early Bull" Actually Confirmed?

    23/09/2026 | 46 mins.
    Mike is finally ready to call it: Bitcoin has likely entered the early-bull phase. Mike and Ryan break down the Golden Cross, the reclaim of the 50-week moving average, the market-structure reset, and why seller exhaustion has pushed Mike’s confidence to 85%. They also cover fading macro fears, Saylor’s return as a buyer, and the key levels that could confirm or challenge the new cycle.

    Onchain Activity is Heating Up…What Comes Next?

    09/09/2026 | 49 mins.
    Bitcoin is flashing early-bull signals, but the all-clear still isn’t here.

They also dive into PUMP vs. PONS, Robinhood Chain’s breakout, mobile-first crypto trading, and whether this new wave of risk-taking is just getting started.
