Gold Just Lost $7 Trillion — Is Bitcoin Next? | The Weekly Ep. 93
About this episode
This week on The Weekly, we break down one of the most shocking market events in decades.
Gold and silver lost $7 trillion in a single day, moving with volatility usually reserved for crypto. Bitcoin followed with a sharp liquidation-driven selloff, miners were forced to sell, and stablecoin liquidity continued to exit the market.
We cover:
- Why gold suddenly started trading like a risk asset
- Whether this was a healthy correction or something more structural
- What Bitcoin’s drawdown tells us about liquidity and market stress
- Stablecoin flows, miner selling, and institutional behavior
- Why Monday’s market open could define the next leg
As always, we separate narrative from liquidity — and ask what really matters next.
