Matt covers roughly  $1.2 billion in Bitcoin whale accumulation  and about  $750 million in U.S. spot ETF inflows this week , while also looking at continued pressure on Bitcoin miners and another delay to the CLARITY Act until at least September.  The episode also covers Coinbase losing another prediction-market court fight, Coldcard losses climbing above  $116 million across more than 5,200 wallets , BIP-110 continuing to struggle for miner support, and XRP weakening as regulatory clarity gets pushed further out. Bitcoin is back near  $65,000  and the Fear & Greed Index has moved to neutral, but Matt remains cautious about calling a true breakout.  Happy Hodling, Everyone. Hosted on Acast.
