They suggested that financial conditions might ease as we move into 2025, with lagging indicators hinting at a potential recovery for U.S. equities and crypto in the coming weeks. Of course, their crystal ball could be as accurate as a weather forecast in April—take it with a grain of salt. 🌧️

This economic chart is as old as your great-grandpappy’s favorite pair of suspenders—over 150 years, mind ye!

Yet, our dear Poppe, with the optimism of a child chasing fireflies, believes that this digital currency is not merely floundering but rather flexing its muscles, preparing for a comeback that would make even the most seasoned boxer proud. He posits that even if the price remains stagnant in the short term, the horizon holds promise, and Bitcoin may very well rise like a phoenix from the ashes over the next year. Or, you know, it could just as easily crash and burn. Who knows? 🤷‍♂️

But wait! Like Raskolnikov finding his path to redemption, there are whispers in the dark corners of the crypto marketplace. The institutional giants, those modern-day aristocrats at Grayscale, they see something… something that makes them reach for their golden purses! 🎪

Following the festive exultation of Liberation Day, an air of dread wove itself through the market—a dramatic flair reminiscent of a tragicomedy. The resulting crash, a spectacle rivaling the most dramatic of stage plays, left many a market artiste slack-jawed in wonder. With nearly every nation, save our somnolent friend China, casting anxious glances towards the mighty US, the specter of bearish gloom still lingers.
