00:00:21.039 --> 00:00:23.559
Welcome back to the Bitcoin Street Journal podcast.

00:00:23.879 --> 00:00:26.199
I'm your host, Anna, reporting live from the

00:00:26.199 --> 00:00:28.559
only corner where the blocks are hard, the signal

00:00:28.559 --> 00:00:31.019
is sovereign, and the fiat melts in real time.

00:00:31.379 --> 00:00:34.119
Let's get into it. Bitcoin price check. Right

00:00:34.119 --> 00:00:39.539
now, Bitcoin is trading at $105 ,670. That's

00:00:39.539 --> 00:00:43.700
105 ,670 USD, folks. Market dominance is at a

00:00:43.700 --> 00:00:47.219
rock solid 60 .4%. Bitcoin's grip on the crypto

00:00:47.219 --> 00:00:49.340
market hasn't been this strong since the pre

00:00:49.340 --> 00:00:52.520
-ETF era. halving pressures remain in effect,

00:00:52.899 --> 00:00:57.119
with block rewards locked in at 3 .125 BTC. If

00:00:57.119 --> 00:00:59.539
you thought Bitcoin's scarcity was already legendary,

00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:02.159
the post -halving landscape is rewriting the

00:01:02.159 --> 00:01:09.040
book. Over the past 20 days, long -term holders

00:01:09.040 --> 00:01:11.680
have added more than 300 ,000 Bitcoin to their

00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:14.299
stacks, while spending activity has cratered

00:01:14.299 --> 00:01:17.680
to its lowest level since last September. Translation,

00:01:18.019 --> 00:01:20.359
the diamond hands are tightening their grip and

00:01:20.359 --> 00:01:22.439
that means fewer coins for anyone late to the

00:01:22.439 --> 00:01:26.120
party. Breaking strategy buys another 4020 BTC.

00:01:26.700 --> 00:01:29.439
Michael Saylor's Bitcoin behemoth strategy just

00:01:29.439 --> 00:01:33.079
acquired another 4020 Bitcoin for $427 million.

00:01:34.040 --> 00:01:37.239
This brings their total to an eye -watering 580

00:01:37.239 --> 00:01:42.299
,250 BTC. That's 2 .7 % of the total circulating

00:01:42.299 --> 00:01:45.340
supply now in the hands of one company. If Saylor

00:01:45.340 --> 00:01:48.230
was bullish before, He's absolutely turbocharged

00:01:48.230 --> 00:01:51.310
now. As he said this week, I only buy Bitcoin

00:01:51.310 --> 00:01:54.310
with money I can't afford to lose. That's maximalism

00:01:54.310 --> 00:01:56.890
you can bank on. Florida goes full Bitcoiner.

00:01:57.290 --> 00:01:59.950
In a legislative bombshell, Florida is proposing

00:01:59.950 --> 00:02:02.430
the elimination of capital gains tax on Bitcoin.

00:02:03.349 --> 00:02:05.849
If passed, it would make Florida the first US

00:02:05.849 --> 00:02:07.909
state to offer this level of crypto freedom.

00:02:08.830 --> 00:02:12.389
Imagine being able to stack SATs, transact and

00:02:12.389 --> 00:02:15.189
realize gains without the IRS tailing your every

00:02:15.189 --> 00:02:18.189
move. Bitcoin Beach may be moving stateside.

00:02:18.530 --> 00:02:20.849
If you're in the Sunshine State, keep your eyes

00:02:20.849 --> 00:02:24.669
on Tallahassee. Bitcoin 2025, the world's largest

00:02:24.669 --> 00:02:27.770
Bitcoin conference, starts now. Bitcoin 2025

00:02:27.770 --> 00:02:30.650
has officially kicked off. From keynote speeches

00:02:30.650 --> 00:02:33.050
to pleb meetups, the event is the beating heart

00:02:33.050 --> 00:02:35.250
of the Bitcoin movement. If you're not there

00:02:35.250 --> 00:02:37.930
in person, you can still join the signal online.

00:02:45.520 --> 00:02:48.780
commentary, zap threads, and no blue -check gatekeeping.

00:02:49.360 --> 00:02:52.080
Nostra is the street, and it's sovereign. Standard

00:02:52.080 --> 00:02:54.900
Chartered forecast liftoff. Banking giant Standard

00:02:54.900 --> 00:02:57.439
Chartered just dropped a monster price prediction.

00:02:58.240 --> 00:03:02.759
Bitcoin to hit 200 ,000 by 2025, 300 ,000 by

00:03:02.759 --> 00:03:07.919
2026, 400 ,000 in 2027, and half a million by

00:03:07.919 --> 00:03:12.009
2028. These aren't crypto bros on Twitter. These

00:03:12.009 --> 00:03:14.250
are suits and ties finally catching up with the

00:03:14.250 --> 00:03:17.430
plebs. Even Rosenblatt Securities is forecasting

00:03:17.430 --> 00:03:21.389
new all -time highs beyond 110 ,000. Sovereigns

00:03:21.389 --> 00:03:24.069
and public companies keep buying the dip. DDC

00:03:24.069 --> 00:03:26.889
Enterprise, a Hong Kong -based company listed

00:03:26.889 --> 00:03:30.430
on the NYSE, just bought 21 Bitcoin as part of

00:03:30.430 --> 00:03:34.590
their 5 ,000 BTC acquisition plan. Over in Japan,

00:03:35.069 --> 00:03:37.550
Remixpoint announced plans to purchase an additional

00:03:37.550 --> 00:03:41.360
$1 billion worth of Bitcoin. Sovereigns, institutions,

00:03:41.520 --> 00:03:43.500
and corporations are securing their slices of

00:03:43.500 --> 00:03:46.780
the finite pie. Are you? Sovereign signal Liz

00:03:46.780 --> 00:03:49.740
Truss gets it. Former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss

00:03:49.740 --> 00:03:52.180
recently stated that Bitcoin takes power away

00:03:52.180 --> 00:03:55.159
from governments. Once a fringe viewpoint, this

00:03:55.159 --> 00:03:57.560
is now a bipartisan cross -border realization.

00:03:58.240 --> 00:04:00.860
Bitcoin isn't just digital gold. It's political

00:04:00.860 --> 00:04:04.000
gold. Jamie Dimon bends the knee. In a surprising

00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:06.900
twist, JP Morgan's Jamie Dimon, who once likened

00:04:06.900 --> 00:04:09.099
Bitcoin to tulips, is now defending your right

00:04:09.099 --> 00:04:12.020
to buy it. I defend your right to buy Bitcoin,

00:04:12.219 --> 00:04:15.000
he said. Cheers, Jamie. We were doing it anyway.

00:04:34.139 --> 00:04:37.120

00:05:12.879 --> 00:05:15.300
market signals, or lightning tips. You don't

00:05:15.300 --> 00:05:17.699
need permission to speak your mind, zap content

00:05:17.699 --> 00:05:20.579
you love, or earn back for the value you provide.

00:05:21.100 --> 00:05:24.399
Market watch shorts and trouble. Over $8 .5 billion

00:05:24.399 --> 00:05:28.300
in short positions are on the verge of liquidation

00:05:28.300 --> 00:05:32.709
at the $115 ,000 level. That's less than $6 ,000

00:05:32.709 --> 00:05:36.810
away. If you thought 2021's short squeeze was

00:05:36.810 --> 00:05:40.569
bad, the next one could melt faces and fiat.

00:05:42.189 --> 00:05:45.110
Japan's MetaPlanet now holds over 5 ,000 Bitcoin

00:05:45.110 --> 00:05:48.610
and maintains a BTC to liability ratio so strong

00:05:48.610 --> 00:05:51.269
that its bonds would remain solvent even if Bitcoin

00:05:51.269 --> 00:05:54.490
dropped to $2 ,000. That's next level resilience,

00:05:55.009 --> 00:05:58.990
folks. On the altcoin front, projects like Grass

00:05:58.990 --> 00:06:01.449
and Meteora are seeing sharp upward momentum.

00:06:02.170 --> 00:06:05.069
Meanwhile, Solana Memocoins are popping 45 %

00:06:05.069 --> 00:06:08.069
after rumors of a Nickelodeon partnership. Imagine

00:06:08.069 --> 00:06:12.329
that. SpongeBob stacking sats. Quick hits. Marathon

00:06:12.329 --> 00:06:14.449
Digital reports record -breaking mining revenue.

00:06:14.970 --> 00:06:17.089
Thailand approves crypto credit cards for tourists.

00:06:17.730 --> 00:06:20.290
Injective crosses 2 billion transactions. Circle

for X money. Sui commits 10 million to post hack

00:06:25.620 --> 00:06:28.480
security upgrades. Pleb shout outs. To Michael

00:06:28.480 --> 00:06:30.959
Saylor for stacking like a sovereign. To Liz

00:06:30.959 --> 00:06:33.519
Truss for speaking truth to power. To every pleb

00:06:33.519 --> 00:06:35.120
listening for staying in the fight and holding

00:06:35.120 --> 00:06:37.699
the line. To Peter Schiff, the rocket is boarding,

00:06:37.920 --> 00:06:40.279
you still have time. Value for value call out.

00:06:40.660 --> 00:06:43.180

00:07:02.360 --> 00:07:05.860
isn't the future. It's the now. It's the sovereign

00:07:05.860 --> 00:07:08.759

SAT is a vote and every block is a broadcast.
