CF Benchmarks now views Bitcoin as a core portfolio staple, projecting a $1.4 million BTC price target by 2035 as institutional adoption, liquidity expansion, and global integration accelerate. The long-term thesis strengthens even as short-term volatility shakes weak hands.

At the same time, MSCI's new crypto treasury rules could force up to $15 billion in selling, creating what many see as a classic institutional shakeout - pressure now, positioning later. Historically, these periods have marked accumulation phases ahead of major structural moves.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin ETFs recorded $457M in inflows, signaling early positioning by institutions, while U.S. CPI inflation just hit its lowest level since 2021, adding fuel to the macro tailwind narrative.

This episode breaks down why short-term pain and long-term upside are colliding - and how Bitcoin continues transitioning from speculative asset to global portfolio cornerstone.

Michael Saylor has ignited one of the most controversial debates in Bitcoin's history by suggesting that lost Bitcoin may need to remain frozen in a future quantum-era upgrade. His argument: Bitcoin won't be broken by quantum computing — it will be hardened, with active coins migrating forward while lost coins stay locked, increasing security and reducing supply.

But Bitcoin purists are pushing back hard, warning that freezing coins violates core principles of self-sovereignty and could trigger a contentious chain split if ever proposed as a soft fork. Critics argue no one has the right to freeze another person's Bitcoin — even if the coins are presumed lost.

This episode dives deep into the Bitcoin governance war, the philosophical fault lines between pragmatism and purity, and what this debate reveals about Bitcoin's evolution as it collides with nation-states, institutions, and future technologies.

Grayscale says the traditional four-year Bitcoin cycle is ending, replaced by a structurally different market driven by politics, liquidity, and institutional adoption. In their view, Bitcoin is likely to reach a new all-time high in early 2026, marking a decisive break from legacy cycle theory.

On-chain data supports the shift: Bitcoin sharks are accumulating at the fastest pace in 13 years, even as volatility shakes out short-term traders. At the same time, Gemini rolls out prediction markets across all 50 U.S. states, and Japan advances plans for a regulated yen stablecoin, signaling deeper integration between crypto and traditional finance.

This episode breaks down why old models may no longer apply, what's driving the next phase of Bitcoin's evolution, and how to think about positioning ahead of a potential new ATH.
