Matt looks at Trump’s White House meeting with crypto executives, Treasury moves supporting broader liquidity, and a massive short squeeze that wiped out roughly  $2.7 billion in bearish positions . U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs also brought in about  $517 million , while Ethereum, XRP, Solana, Hyperliquid, and other major assets rallied even harder than Bitcoin.  The episode also covers crypto stocks ripping alongside the market, continued expansion of XRP and tokenized-asset infrastructure, the CLARITY Act returning to the political conversation, and X reportedly exploring stablecoin payments. Matt remains cautiously bearish despite the rally, arguing that improving  global liquidity and Treasury-market conditions  are more important to watch than the White House meeting itself.  Happy HODLing.
