In this episode, Nik Bhatia and Craig Shapiro explore the ripple effects of Federal Reserve policies, market movements, and the strength of the U.S. dollar under Trump’s pro-Bitcoin administration. They unpack how rising yields, persistent inflation, and tightening financial conditions are reshaping risk assets like Bitcoin, while the dollar acts as a “wrecking ball” across global markets. With insights from the Bear Traps Report, they highlight Bitcoin’s role as a symbolic “scorecard” for Trump’s economic agenda and discuss its potential as a national asset under a populist-driven strategy. Wrapping up, they assess the geopolitical landscape and the future of financial markets, exploring how these forces could shape Bitcoin’s trajectory in a volatile economic environment.
