Bitcoin’s $80K Crash, MSCI’s MSTR Shock, XRP ETFs Launching, and Epstein’s Bitcoin Links | The Weekly
About this episode
Bitcoin’s wild week explained: an $80K flash crash, MSCI’s proposed rule that could hit MicroStrategy, a wave of new XRP ETFs, and newly-surfaced Epstein documents revealing deeper-than-expected ties to MIT’s Digital Currency Initiative and early Bitcoin development.
Graham and David break down:
• Why Bitcoin plunged toward $80K before sharply rebounding
• How a potential MSCI rule could trigger billions in forced selling of MSTR
• The SEC clearing its ETF backlog and the rapid rise of XRP ETFs
• What the new Epstein document dump really shows about early Bitcoin research
