2243: Bitcoin Slides to $65K as U.S. States Advance BTC Funds

"Bitcoin is sliding hard today — but states are moving forward like the volatility doesn't matter."

Bitcoin is down ~10% on the day, slicing through $65K — and fear is back on the timeline.

But while price reacts, policy quietly moves forward.

This episode breaks down:

• What's actually driving today's sharp selloff

• Why state-level Bitcoin funds are advancing during volatility

• Virginia's move toward a state Bitcoin reserve

• Why crashes often coincide with structural adoption

• How Bitcoin continues to be treated less like a trade and more like infrastructure

This isn't about pretending volatility doesn't exist.

It's about understanding what changes during it — and what doesn't.
