Summary

In this episode of the Crypto Rundown we cover the potential start of an altcoin season, with Ethereum showing strong performance and outpacing Bitcoin. Institutional adoption continues to grow, highlighted by Robinhood's Bitstamp acquisition and the potential for Bitcoin in 401(k) plans, which could bring billions in new demand. Technical analysis suggests a possible short-term pullback in Bitcoin, but the long-term outlook remains positive. The hosts discuss global crypto adoption, including pro-Bitcoin politicians in Poland and Japan, and emphasize the importance of staying informed and making risk-adjusted investment decisions.
