Where the panel landed
Is the $48K level a floor or a way-station lower?
The panel split. Ben Arc read the ETF outflows as forced selling near a bottom; Victoria Jones argued the institutional bid had structurally broken and saw more downside.
What they were watching
Consensus that $48K was the line in the sand, with $44K flagged as the next level if it broke.
Record ETF outflows
Spot Bitcoin ETFs saw record outflows as BTC hit 2024 lows. The panel weighed forced versus conviction selling.
Saylor's Strategy under pressure
With BTC near $48K, the panel debated whether Strategy's issue-debt-buy-more playbook had reached a limit.
It's a typical example of a central point of failure.— Victoria Jones
Story of the Week
Record ETF outflows meet a $48K floor
