Summary
In this episode of the Crypto Rundown, Tevo and Brian break down why markets still look strong despite cautious sentiment, highlighting $300B in recent crypto market growth and continued institutional accumulation. They dive into rising activity in NFTs and meme coins, signaling a shift back toward risk-on behavior as capital begins rotating into higher-upside plays. The episode also covers macro narratives like Tether freezing $344M, Bitcoin funding rates turning negative (a potential bullish signal), and ongoing debates around supply shock driven by major buyers like Michael Saylor. They wrap with discussions on regulation, Trump’s crypto stance, and emerging infrastructure like X’s potential banking features, reinforcing that crypto is positioning for a larger move ahead.

| 0:00.0 | All right, everybody, welcome back to the crypto rundown. |
| 0:10.4 | Right now, most of the market is still positioned cautiously, but the data is starting |
| 0:14.9 | to tell a very different story. |
| 0:17.1 | Funding rates aren't overheated. |
| 0:18.8 | Institutions like Fidelity are starting to turn constructive, |
| 0:21.8 | and some of the biggest buyers in the space are still accumulating. At the same time, |
| 0:25.7 | crypto added over $300 billion in market cap in just the last couple weeks. So the real question |
| 0:31.8 | is, is the market still underestimating this move? We're going to break it down. We have tons of |
| 0:36.6 | data points to talk about on this Monday morning. We have a lot of fun stuff to cover as well as a momentum market, momentum money makers market update with some winners that they had. So this is going to be a full-fledged Monday episode. It's a lot. It's a lot. A lot of data around Bitcoin, a lot of data around the crypto markets and some absolute winners that we've been seeing. |
| 0:56.2 | Did somebody say NFTs, Brian? |
| 0:58.0 | Oh, I know. NFTs have been hot recently. And I love, I love it. I love me some NFTs, a guilty pleasure. |
| 1:04.7 | Because, you know, that was some wild times in 2021. |
| 1:08.1 | Mass of gains, cool communities. And people were writing off NFTs for dead for quite |
| 1:13.3 | some time. I wasn't exactly an active buyer, but it looked like some buyers stepped up. |
| 1:19.2 | We'll talk about later on the show, but huge NFT spike across the major blue chip |
| 1:24.7 | collections. And this wasn't just a dollar or two. This was tens and hundreds of thousands of dollars getting bought up in our very lovely JPEGs. |
| 1:34.4 | So I'm happy to see it. |
| 1:36.4 | Yeah, there's a lot to cover this episode. |
| 1:38.0 | It really is. |
| 1:38.4 | It's a Monday. |
| 1:39.6 | Just for the people watching live, just as an FYI, your friend TiVo is having some mighty, mighty car troubles today. There's no power. There's smoke. There's no fire, but there could have been a fire. Who knows? So just a FYI to my co-os, Brian, if I get a call, I might have to take that and you got to solo it for a couple minutes. So just an alert to all the live listeners out there. But let's jump right into it. Our quick macro update of the day. Again, the Iran, I call it |
