Is Microstrategy overpriced?

Is Microstrategy overpriced?

It's a function of your time-horizon. Yes, it would have been better to buy a few years ago and today's valuation may be rich. But MSTR is changing the capital markets in ways most people don't understand and they're not stopping anytime soon.

What do you think of this 2x BTC ETF?

What do you think of this 2x BTC ETF?

Was the Japan carry trade a nothing burger?

Was the Japan carry trade a nothing burger?

Is this "The Big One"?

Is this "The Big One"?

The markets were smoldering all weekend before finally erupting on fire this morning in a wave of liquidations. All eyes on whether this gets contained or second wave turns this into a full blown crisis.

Is This Thing On?

Is This Thing On?

Trump's speech at the BTC convention may have disappointed some —partly thanks to RFK's earlier speech. It was not "I have a dream" but it does activate a long-awaited chapter of Bitcoin's Game Theory.
