AI's Crypto Threat, Labor vs Inflation, Bitcoin Tests $60K, and Hyperliquid's Competition

Description:
We discuss why this week's macro setup favors caution, as last week's strong jobs report makes the upcoming CPI print critical to the Fed's reaction function. We cover why Bitcoin's institutional bid is being tested, with ETF outflows acting as a double-edged sword and $60K standing out as a key level to hold. We also discuss how AI-assisted discovery of a critical Zcash vulnerability is reshaping how investors price protocol security risk, and what US-regulated perps and options means for Hyperliquid.

(01:20 - 08:01) Labor, inflation, and the CPI setup
(08:01 - 14:02) Bitcoin's institutional bid
