Today’s Nuggets

  • IBIT’s Volume is Monstrous!

  • ETF without Staking Makes Little Sense

  • Democrats Continue to Pivot

  • WisdomTree Gets Approval with a Catch?

  • Miners On Fire

  • BlackRock Flips Grayscale


Today, we will break down all the action leading to a bullish setup. There is a bit of an ETF frenzy - a flippening - and a political pivot. 

There is a thing called ‘Pizza Day’ that is happening as well.

I calculated the price of Bitcoin on all of these different pizza days and will show you the performance alongside some super interesting charts alongside crazy ETF flows.


Bitcoin has experienced a bit of a dip since this chart went up.

The whales had a massive one-week change to 12,000 Bitcoin, nearly 9,000 in a day.

I will dig into that and compare this to my whale and analysis across all the different cohorts and see what we come up with.


Per Eric Balchunas, the ETH ETF could consume 10% to 15% of Bitcoin's assets. I believe Bitcoin investors are very different from ETH investors and that there is a snag with the ETH ETF. 

If you have a bag of ETH and are going into the ETH ETF, you will not receive staking rewards.

This leaves a big chunk on the table, so it defeats the purpose of having an ETF in the first place.
