Last episode: Henrik Zeberg predicts that #Bitcoin crashes 90%. This episode, one of the world's leading liquidity experts explains why the opposite is structurally locked in. "The West is bust, and the world is changed." Michael Howell (CrossBorder Capital/ GLIndexes) founded CrossBorder Capital and has spent decades tracking one variable: global liquidity. His argument is that governments have quietly stopped borrowing the normal way, and started printing without calling it printing: "Governments are issuing three month Treasury bills, and those Treasury bills are like printing money." Long-term debt has become too expensive to issue in a world of higher yields. So everything shifts to the short end, the debt gets rolled instead of repaid, and monetary inflation becomes the release valve. Not a policy choice. A structural one. And his model puts a number on what that means: for every 10% increase in global liquidity, Bitcoin's price has historically doubled. We cover: - Why "the West is bust", and why that makes printinginevitable, not optional - The debt refinancing wall: why governments can't issue real long-term debt anymore - His liquidity model, and the Bitcoin relationship inside it - Why monetary inflation quietly destroys wealth that isn't in the right assets - Why he says most people still have close to zero allocation to the one asset built for this environment - Aging demographics, AI, and the future of bonds Thanks to OKX for being sponsor of todays show!

"I haven't sold a single sat." Michael Saylor (Michael Saylor) is Executive Chairman of Strategy, the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin on earth. While crypto twitter blamed him for the correction over a 32-coin sale, he sat down with me in Prague and explained why Bitcoin is really lagging and why it has almost nothing to do with Bitcoin. "We bought 175,000 Bitcoin this year, which is like 20% of all the Bitcoin ever bought. We sold 32. 32 works out to be two basis points." We cover: - Why Bitcoin is lagging while the S&P prints all-time highs, the "massive AI black hole" pulling capital out of crypto - Why he thinks the money rotates back by Q4 - The 32-BTC sale, the scapegoat dynamic, and why he hasn't sold a sat of his own - Why a 50% drawdown is normal, the 2022 one was 75% - The Apple and Amazon adoption curve, and the "Warren Buffett moment" he says is still coming - What actually happens to Strategy if Bitcoin stalls for 40 years - Why he believes being irrelevant is the only thing worse than being hated Thanks to Michael for coming on New Era Finance Podcast. Highlights: 00:00 - Intro 00:25 - Bitcoin Is Now Digital Capital 03:30 - Digital Credit, Invented In 12 Months 07:40 - Why Bitcoin Is Lagging The Market 12:15 - The Apple & Amazon Comparison 18:30 - Did Saylor Sell His Bitcoin? 21:00 - We Bought 175,000. We Sold 32. 25:00 - Defending The Credit & The Equity 29:30 - What If Bitcoin Stalls For 40 Years? 33:00 - The Warren Buffett Moment Is Coming 37:00 - Being Hated vs Being Irrelevant

While everyone's staring at #Bitcoin, Matt Hougan says four other assets are quietly leading this entire bull market. Matt Hougan (Matt Hougan) is CIO of Bitwise, one of the largest crypto asset managers in the world. His frame for what's happening is bigger than a cycle: The addressable market for DeFi protocols just grew 100x. From competing inside a $2 trillion crypto market to taking a shot at the $100 trillion stock market and the $300 trillion bond market. And the race for that prize is on: "$HYPE making its case to be chiseled into the Mount Rushmore. $ZEC is arguing that privacy should be on the Mount Rushmore. $VVV is arguing that real world AI should be on the Mount Rushmore." We cover: - The four assets he sees winning this bull market, and why Bitcoin is only part of the story - Why traditional investors who move into the tokenized world never go back - Why exchanges keep getting disrupted every year and a half - The Mount Rushmore of crypto: who's carved in, who's campaigning - Bitcoin as the debasement hedge, tokenization as the second megatrend running alongside it Thanks to OKX for being today’s sponsor of the show!

🚨 BITCOIN HAS DUMPED TO $63K FOR A REASON The market isn't moving randomly. → 1,064 days of bull market. → 364 days of bear market. History will repeat, and Bitcoin will bottom out at ~$50,000 this cycle. Reminder: I publicly called the $17K Bitcoin bottom in 2022 and the $126K top in 2025. The next market call will be posted here first. Follow and turn notifications on. Don't become exit liquidity.

2026 Is CRYPTO’S Biggest Year Since 2020 Crypto doesn't always need to be about 100% speculation and guesswork. Understanding this is essential if you're a crypto holder. The U.S. is now borrowing money just to pay the interest on money it already borrowed. Interest payments pass $1T next year. NY Fed basically saying the Treasury market comes first... So: They’ll cut rates. They’ll print money. They’ll change the rules. Whatever it takes to make that debt roll smoothly. Every one of those moves = more liquidity. More liquidity = risk assets go up. Here is the pipeline: QT ends → rate cuts → balance sheet expansion → risk assets Not a halving cycle, but a liquidity cycle. Intro 00:00 The U.S. debt problem 00:30 Why it matters to crypto holders 3:30

"The government system is set up whereby it has to continually dilute the currency to keep it going. And that really represents a theft of the earnings and productivity of the middle to lower classes." Lawrence Lepard (Lawrence Lepard, "fix the money, fix the world") wrote The Big Print. He's spent his career studying monetary debasement and he came on to explain why they can never stop printing, and what that means for Bitcoin at $60K. His call, in his own words: "I think Bitcoin could go up three x in the next two years. Let's say it's 60 round numbers at 60 today. My working model is kind of two years out, we'll be at 180." We cover: - Why in a credit-based system they're trapped: "you have to grow credit and you have to grow the money supply, or else the whole thing collapses" - Why he says the Fed is "gaslighting us" and what they can't admit - Gold ran 67% last year while Bitcoin lagged. Why he thinks that lag gets followed by "severe outperformance" - The scale: Bitcoin at ~$1.3T, gold at ~$30T, ~$1,000T of global financial assets - Why he calls Bitcoin "monetary debasement insurance," not a trade - The 10–20% allocation question, and why he says you'd regret not having it - "The Big Print": the two we've already had, and the one he says is still coming That's his call, not mine, but it's one of the clearest cases I've heard for why the currency has to keep getting diluted. Thanks to Lawrence for coming on New Era Finance Podcast. Thanks for OKX Dutch for being our partner for the show.

LIVE NOW - The Real Crypto Cycle: What Happens When Global Liquidity Peaks Global liquidity veteran Michael Howell (CrossBorder Capital/ GLIndexes) joins to map out the “master variable” driving asset price: A 65-month global liquidity and debt refinancing cycle that underpins booms, busts, and the recent “everything bubble.” He breaks down: - the coming debt maturity wall, - rising repo stress, - the shift from Fed QE to “Treasury QE,” - and a new capital war between a US dollar stablecoin system and China’s gold-backed strategy.

LIVE NOW - The Real Crypto Cycle: What Happens When Global Liquidity Peaks Global liquidity veteran Michael Howell (CrossBorder Capital/ GLIndexes) joins to map out the “master variable” driving asset price: A 65-month global liquidity and debt refinancing cycle that underpins booms, busts, and the recent “everything bubble.” He breaks down: - the coming debt maturity wall, - rising repo stress, - the shift from Fed QE to “Treasury QE,” - and a new capital war between a US dollar stablecoin system and China’s gold-backed strategy.

I'm positioned for a new bull market. I've said it publicly, with my own money behind it. So I invited the one macro strategist who thinks I'm walking into a trap. "What you're seeing right now is not a new bull market. It's actually a bear market rally. It's also called a fool's rally." Henrik Zeberg (Henrik Zeberg) is known for calling major market turns. His scenario is specific, and it's brutal: #Bitcoin bounces to $115,000-$120,000, gets rejected a second time, and then gets crushed, up to 90% from here. Driven by a recession Bitcoin has genuinely never lived through, and a dollar strengthening at exactly the wrong moment. Thanks to OKX for being today's sponsor of the show! We cover: - Why what looks like a breakout is, in his read, the setup, not the escape - The avalanche effect: how liquidity stress cascades into risk assets - Why Bitcoin has never actually been tested by a real recession - His case that the four-year cycle theory is misleading an entire generation into waiting for a bottom that never comes the way they expect - What AI does to labor, inflation and the Fed's dilemma - How he'd navigate the volatility either way Timestamps: 00:00 - Bitcoin's Recent Surge 02:59 - Bitcoin vs Risk Assets 05:52 - The Avalanche Effect 08:52 - Bear Rally Or Bull Market? 11:58 - The Dollar's Role 14:56 - Sentiment And The Clarity Act 18:03 - Liquidity vs Real Economy 20:59 - The Fed's Dilemma 24:12 - Bitcoin In A Weak Economy 31:21 - Inflation And Consumers 34:05 - Inflation vs The Labor Market 37:22 - Nasdaq And Bitcoin Outlook 40:43 - A Weakening US Economy 45:29 - AI's Impact On Labor 51:34 - Bitcoin In A Recession 54:08 - Navigating The Volatility One of us is wrong. That's exactly why this conversation needed to happen. Who’s side are you on?

"Tokenization and AI agents." Jamie Coutts CMT's entire 12-month playbook for #crypto demand is five words long. The interesting part is who he says shows up as the buyer: "The marches inevitable. Bessent was out last week talking about blockchain and digitalization. So they want it, obviously, because they're going to find buyers for their debt." Translation: the US government isn't warming to tokenization out of conviction — it has record issuance to place, and tokenized markets mean more buyers for Treasuries. Demand for crypto rails, driven by the state's own funding problem. Meanwhile AI agents need neutral rails no single company controls. Machines that need to transact, and a government that needs to borrow. Strange coalition — but neither one trades on sentiment.

"Because AI took all the money." Arthur Hayes (Arthur Hayes) is co-founder of BitMEX and one of the most-read macro writers in crypto. While everyone waited for the next leg up, he explained why the money stopped flowing into crypto and what brings it roaring back. "There's no cash to go to crypto. AI sucked it all up and it'll keep sucking it up until the bubble bursts." We cover: - Why ~$1.5 trillion of new money since ChatGPT went to AI instead of crypto, and what that did to Bitcoin - Oil, Iran, and the inventory-restocking shock he thinks the market is mispricing - Why he exits a trade the moment the asymmetry is gone, even one he's loved for months - What he hunts instead: maximum hate, minimum downside, room to run - Why he's "more concerned with capital preservation than capital accumulation" - The convexity philosophy: betting on 1% odds becoming 10%, not 50% becoming 75% - Why Bitcoin really stalled and why Saylor isn't the reason - Why he refuses to trade a four-year-cycle calendar - "The big print": the crisis he's staying liquid for, and why that one moment sets up two decades of returns Thanks to Arthur for coming on New Era Finance Podcast. Highlights: 00:00 - A Deal, Oil, And What Markets Are Pricing 08:00 - Why Crypto Got Left Behind 09:32 - "AI Took All The Money" 24:00 - When He Exits A Trade He Loves 30:00 - What He's Hunting Now 33:57 - The Convexity Philosophy 41:51 - Why Bitcoin Really Stalled 43:55 - Why He Won't Trade A Calendar 45:18 - The Opportunity Nobody's Ready For 46:12 - "The Big Print" And Staying Liquid

Former BlackRock fund manager Ed Dowd on the Bitcoin drop: "Bitcoin has always been a global liquidity canary in the coal mine" "what [this] says to me is that Bitcoin is being sold to fund and chase... momentum stocks, particularly NASDAQ and semiconductors" "[this] means the liquidity situation isn't as good as everyone thinks, because if this was truly a liquidity driven market rise, Bitcoin would be participating right now" This clip of Dowd (Edward Dowd), a former BlackRock fund manager and co-founder of Phinance Technologies, is taken from an interview with Daniela Cambone-Taub (Daniela Cambone-Taub) posted to the ITM TRADING, INC. YouTube channel on June 5, 2026. ---------------Partial transcription of clip---------------- "So Bitcoin peaked in October of last year and in this most recent move, in three weeks it's gone from 81,000 to 67,000. That's a 17% decline in three weeks. And technically it looks like it wants to go find a new low. "At the moment it may rally from here, but, the NASDAQ and Bitcoin have a strong correlation, historically 95%. "Bitcoin is a risk-on trade. So recently that's decoupled a little bit, which implies one of two things. Bitcoin needs to rally back up to make the correlation hold or the NASDAQ has to move down a lot for the correlation to hold. "So given Bitcoin's decline, it makes me concerned that global— and Bitcoin has always been a global liquidity canary in the coal mine. So what it says to me is that Bitcoin is being sold to fund and chase, you know, momentum stocks, particularly NASDAQ and semiconductors, which means the liquidity situation isn't as good as everyone thinks. "Because if this was truly a liquidity driven market rise, Bitcoin would be participating right now. "[And Michael] Saylor's stock has been a disaster for the last year and a half. He's selling some Bitcoin to pay some dividends. There is a thesis that he gets a margin call. I don't know whether that's true or not, but at these levels, it's margin call. "People have said in $74,000 bitcoins, margin call territory, we're now at $67,000. We'll see if that continues to unwind the Bitcoin space. But it just doesn't bode well for global liquidity that Bitcoin is struggling, in my humble opinion."

"The short term price of Bitcoin is now controlled by Wall Street. And they want your Bitcoin." Simon Dixon (Simon Dixon) spent a decade watching the same institutions that dismissed Bitcoin quietly move to capture it. He came on to explain the plan for the coins you're holding and the one move they can't stop. "They don't want you to self custody it. They want you to borrow against it. They want you to trade perpetual futures." His framework is sovereign vs subordinate: either you hold Bitcoin you can access with no permission from a bank or a broker, or you're in debt to the system for everything you own. We cover: - Why Wall Street now controls Bitcoin's short-term price and what they actually want with your coins - How Bitcoin gets captured: custodians, ETFs, lending products - The unrealized gains tax and how it's used to strip assets - Why he says you cannot vote your way out of this - Where you actually sit on the sovereign vs subordinate spectrum - Why self custody is the one thing they can't touch Thanks to Simon for coming on New Era Finance Podcast.
