“Delicate actions between central financial institution stability sheet ranges, the speed of banking credit score enlargement, the connection between the US 10-yr treasury/shares/Bitcoin costs, and the insane Official Trump (TRUMP) memecoin worth motion produced a pit in my abdomen. It is a related feeling I bought in late 2021, proper earlier than the underside fell out of the crypto markets.”
