| 0:00.0 | Hey, Bankless Nation. Welcome to another episode of State of the Nation. This is the episode |
| 0:11.1 | where we talk about something topical, something top of mind. I think this week, the topical |
| 0:16.6 | top of mind thing is the market specifically. Yeah, bear or bull market. That's what people |
| 0:24.1 | want to know. And in order to figure that out, of course, like fundamentally, look, crypto |
| 0:28.8 | is in a 10, 20 multi-decade long secular bull cycle. So if you have someone like David |
| 0:34.6 | or myself, bear market, bull market, we'll be like, ah, I mean, crypto is always in a bull |
| 0:39.4 | market, right? Kind of. And yet there are some, you know, local bear and bull types of seasons |
| 0:47.8 | as well that we have to talk through. So David, who do we bring on and what are we going |
| 0:52.6 | to cover in this episode? Yeah, we are bringing on returning guest ledger. Real name is Brian, |
| 0:57.0 | but everyone calls them ledger co-host of the up only podcast as well as the ledger cast |
| 1:02.2 | podcast. So a fellow podcaster. And that's always a treat to bring on fellow content producers |
| 1:06.8 | because they know how to make good content. But Brian, some skill that you and I both completely |
| 1:11.2 | lack is the ability to look at a chart and actually interpret it. Like I can draw lines. |
| 1:16.5 | It's like, oh, well, there's a line here and there's a line here. But that's about as far |
| 1:19.6 | as I can go. And so when it comes time to actually zoom out and look at the state of the charts |
| 1:25.6 | because charts do matter, we need some extra help. So we're bringing on ledger from ledger |
| 1:30.3 | cast slash up only to help us walk through both the crypto charts. We'll start with Bitcoin, |
| 1:35.0 | Ether, ETHBTC, some Alt-layer ones. But then we'll also talk about macro because macro markets |
| 1:40.4 | and commodity markets are also interesting right now. So looking at the state of the charts |
| 1:45.7 | today on the state of the nation. And we hopeful, we're hopeful by the end of this episode. |
| 1:50.2 | You'll have a good sense of what kind of market we're in right now. Is this a bear market? |
| 1:54.0 | Is this a bull market? And what are the charts telling us the future is going to look like? |
