In this episode we unpack the current “chop season” in crypto: Bitcoin’s pullback after hotter-than-expected inflation data, key support levels to watch, and near-term catalysts like jobless claims and Powell’s Jackson Hole speech.
We examine Ethereum’s mixed signals — huge ETF inflows alongside record short positions and overbought technicals — and survey stalled altcoins, meme coin sideways action, and notable institutional and regulatory moves worldwide.
Finally, we contrast Coin Bureau’s historical-cycle peak view for late 2025 with Lark Davis’s thesis that institutional adoption could spark a new altcoin supercycle, highlighting why both tactical caution and strategic, long-term perspective are essential.
