Summary
In this episode of the Crypto Rundown, Tevo and Brian break down a major shift in macro markets as the S&P 500 hits all-time highs while crypto lags behind—creating a potential setup for Bitcoin’s next move. They highlight rare negative funding rates as a historical bottom signal, alongside data showing whales accumulating Bitcoin at the fastest pace since 2013. The episode explores rising bullish sentiment, shifting prediction markets, and why smart money appears to be positioning ahead of a potential breakout. They also cover the Clarity Act momentum, growing institutional adoption, and emerging opportunities across meme coins and on-chain trading.
