00:00:19.149 --> 00:00:21.429
Welcome back to another charged up episode of

00:00:21.429 --> 00:00:23.670
the Bitcoin Street Journal podcast. The only

00:00:23.670 --> 00:00:26.129
place where the fiat dies quietly, the plebs

00:00:26.129 --> 00:00:28.929
thrive loudly, and the signal is never censored.

00:00:29.730 --> 00:00:32.549
I'm your host, Anna, bringing you today's seismic

00:00:32.549 --> 00:00:35.390
news from the Bitcoin front lines. Let's begin

00:00:35.390 --> 00:00:40.530
with this fact. Only 992 ,297 addresses in the

00:00:40.530 --> 00:00:43.810
entire world own more than one Bitcoin. Think

00:00:43.810 --> 00:00:46.439
about that. Fewer than 1 million wallets on Earth

00:00:46.439 --> 00:00:49.539
hold a full coin. In a world of 8 billion people,

00:00:50.079 --> 00:00:54.119
less than 0 .0125 % are whole coiners. That makes

00:00:54.119 --> 00:00:57.100
one BTC more rare than a seat in Congress or

00:00:57.100 --> 00:00:59.320
an invite to one of Trump's new meme coin dinners.

00:00:59.899 --> 00:01:02.579
This is your daily reminder. You're still early.

00:01:03.119 --> 00:01:06.159
Now let's talk markets. As of this morning, Bitcoin

00:01:06.159 --> 00:01:10.459
is trading at $111 ,889 and its market dominance

00:01:10.459 --> 00:01:14.569
is at 54 .2%. Yes, the bulls have been unleashed.

00:01:14.870 --> 00:01:16.709
New all -time highs are hitting like fireworks.

00:01:17.329 --> 00:01:19.689
The pizza day milestone has been passed and that

00:01:19.689 --> 00:01:23.409
10 ,000 BTC pepperoni purchase from 2010 now

00:01:23.409 --> 00:01:26.609
clocks in at over $1 .1 billion. Hope they tipped

00:01:26.609 --> 00:01:29.390
well. BlackRock's ETF is now top five in YTD

00:01:29.390 --> 00:01:32.950
flows. Let's get into it. Blackrock's iBit Bitcoin

00:01:32.950 --> 00:01:36.170
ETF is now officially a top five ETF in year

00:01:36.170 --> 00:01:39.450
to date inflows, sitting pretty with over 643

00:01:39.450 --> 00:01:43.810
,974 BTC under management, valued at more than

00:01:43.810 --> 00:01:48.189
$71 .4 billion. That puts Blackrock, yes, Larry

00:01:48.189 --> 00:01:50.930
Fink's fiat mothership, in line to become the

00:01:50.930 --> 00:01:53.909
second largest Bitcoin holder after Satoshi Nakamoto.

00:01:54.530 --> 00:01:57.810
Welcome to late stage fiat. where the very institutions

00:01:57.810 --> 00:02:00.829
that once scoffed at Bitcoin now quietly become

00:02:00.829 --> 00:02:03.689
its biggest holders. Sweden joins the club. Hone

00:02:03.689 --> 00:02:06.689
100 Group buys Bitcoin. Meanwhile, Sweden has

00:02:06.689 --> 00:02:09.330
entered the corporate treasury chat. Hone 100

00:02:09.330 --> 00:02:11.650
Group, a publicly traded healthcare company,

00:02:12.129 --> 00:02:14.229
just became the first Swedish firm to purchase

00:02:14.229 --> 00:02:18.150
Bitcoin for its reserves, stacking 4 .39 BTC.

00:02:18.750 --> 00:02:20.770
It might not sound like much in absolute terms,

00:02:20.810 --> 00:02:23.629
but symbolically, it's massive. This is a new

00:02:23.629 --> 00:02:26.870
region planting a Bitcoin flag. Corporate FOMO

00:02:26.870 --> 00:02:29.509
has become a global contagion. Strategy goes

00:02:29.509 --> 00:02:32.530
big with 2 .1 billion preferred stock sale. And

00:02:32.530 --> 00:02:35.729
let's talk about the apex stackers. Michael Saylor's

00:02:35.729 --> 00:02:38.789
strategy, yes, we're calling it that now, announced

00:02:38.789 --> 00:02:42.389
it's selling up to $2 .1 billion in 10 % perpetual

00:02:42.389 --> 00:02:45.310
preferred stock to buy more Bitcoin. That's right.

00:02:45.669 --> 00:02:48.129
They're raising fiat capital to stack more corn.

00:02:48.669 --> 00:02:50.870
It's bold, it's aggressive, it's classic Saylor.

00:02:51.270 --> 00:02:54.370
They're sitting on $22 .5 billion in unrealized

00:02:54.370 --> 00:02:57.620
Bitcoin gains. Strategy isn't playing 4D chess.

00:02:58.219 --> 00:03:00.419
They're redpilling the board. Texas Strategic

00:03:00.419 --> 00:03:03.080
Bitcoin Reserve Bill passes. In policy news,

00:03:03.180 --> 00:03:05.539
Texas just passed its Strategic Bitcoin Reserve

00:03:05.539 --> 00:03:08.780
Bill, SB 21. The legislation moves to Governor

00:03:08.780 --> 00:03:10.939
Abbott's desk for signature, which would make

00:03:10.939 --> 00:03:13.400
Texas the first state in America with a formal

00:03:13.400 --> 00:03:16.300
Bitcoin Treasury Reserve Strategy. The Lone Star

00:03:16.300 --> 00:03:19.240
State is making it official. Bitcoin is a strategic

00:03:19.240 --> 00:03:21.969
asset for American sovereignty. If you want to

00:03:21.969 --> 00:03:24.349
dive deeper into this topic or see the full timeline,

00:03:24.810 --> 00:03:27.610
head over to the BitcoinStreetJournal .com. And

00:03:27.610 --> 00:03:30.030
remember, at the very top of the homepage, you

00:03:30.030 --> 00:03:32.129
can sign up for Nostr and join the conversation

00:03:32.129 --> 00:03:35.210
with us directly. Other top stories. Let's hit

00:03:35.210 --> 00:03:38.090
the lightning round. Bitcoin has overtaken Amazon

00:03:38.090 --> 00:03:41.050
and Google in market cap, becoming the fifth

00:03:41.050 --> 00:03:44.169
largest asset in the world. Apple's next. This

00:03:44.169 --> 00:03:46.590
is the kind of flippening we like to see. Conor

00:03:46.590 --> 00:03:48.430
McGregor says he wants to become president of

00:03:48.430 --> 00:03:51.080
Ireland and create a Bitcoin reserve. Now that's

00:03:51.080 --> 00:03:53.840
a UFC move we didn't see coming. Liquid Network

00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:58.819
now holds $3 .27 billion in locked value. Bitcoin

00:03:58.819 --> 00:04:01.580
-based tokenization is growing fast, with demand

00:04:01.580 --> 00:04:04.400
rising for treasuries, credit products, and synthetic

00:04:04.400 --> 00:04:07.240
dollar instruments built on top of Bitcoin. Jack

00:04:07.240 --> 00:04:10.159
Mallers and Tether launched 21, a new venture

00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:12.860
with ambitions to own 5 % of the Bitcoin network.

00:04:13.699 --> 00:04:15.780
According to Mallers, with our experience and

00:04:15.780 --> 00:04:18.839
reach, it's going to be really interesting. Yeah,

00:04:18.879 --> 00:04:22.420
Jack? We believe you. Justin Sun posted a video

00:04:22.420 --> 00:04:25.199
from Trump's private crypto dinner. Expect more

00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:27.300
headlines around the Genius Act and the growing

00:04:27.300 --> 00:04:29.879
divide between pro and anti -Bitcoin factions

00:04:29.879 --> 00:04:32.899
in government. And speaking of that divide, SEC

00:04:32.899 --> 00:04:35.420
post politics delay, deny, dominate. The SEC

00:04:35.420 --> 00:04:37.939
continues to delay decisions on the Bitwise and

00:04:37.939 --> 00:04:40.699
CoinShares XRP ETFs, the CoinShares Litecoin

00:04:40.699 --> 00:04:44.639
ETF, and the 21Shares Ethereum staking ETF. Meanwhile,

00:04:44.839 --> 00:04:47.040
Senate Democrats are introducing amendments to

00:04:47.040 --> 00:04:49.240
prevent sitting presidents from profiting off

00:04:49.240 --> 00:04:53.360
crypto. And yes, they specifically named Trump

00:04:53.360 --> 00:04:55.720
and the U .S. Dunstable coin from World Liberty

00:04:55.720 --> 00:04:59.500
Financial. The Memacoin wars are getting political.

00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:02.779
ETF flows and market stats. Let's check the ledger.

00:05:03.300 --> 00:05:06.199
Yesterday's spot BTC ETF net inflows totaled

00:05:06.199 --> 00:05:10.500
$934 .8 million. ETH ETFs brought in $110 .5

00:05:10.500 --> 00:05:15.120
million. BlackRock alone added 4 ,931 BTC worth

00:05:15.120 --> 00:05:19.360
547 .5 million. And with that, prediction markets

00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:23.019
are now giving a 43 % chance that Bitcoin hits

00:05:23.019 --> 00:05:27.939
$150 ,000 by year end. Markets are hot, volatility

00:05:27.939 --> 00:05:30.879
is high, and institutional inflows continue to

00:05:30.879 --> 00:05:33.490
break records. Want to track these inflows and

00:05:33.490 --> 00:05:36.209

Powered by plebs. Final thoughts. Let's leave

00:06:10.069 --> 00:06:12.610
you with some perspective. Half the world still

00:06:12.610 --> 00:06:16.170
thinks Bitcoin is a scam. But the truth is, fiat

00:06:16.170 --> 00:06:20.269
is the scam. Inflation is the rug pull. Central

00:06:20.269 --> 00:06:22.769
banks are the yield farms with no exit liquidity.

00:06:23.529 --> 00:06:26.129
And every day more people are waking up. Remember

00:06:26.129 --> 00:06:28.839
what Jack Mallers said this week. America sacrificed

00:06:28.839 --> 00:06:31.100
private property, sound money, and free markets.

00:06:31.519 --> 00:06:33.839
Bitcoin is how we get it back. We couldn't agree

00:06:33.839 --> 00:06:36.720
