Bank the

Bankless Station we have a Bankless Takes episode for you because we wanted to just talk about get some of our ideas out there and the ideas going on and where we are in the current crypto cycle.

Is it over yet? Are we about to enter all-time highs? I don't know. We're in kind of like this

So people are having this conversation.

Also people are talking about the Ether ETF

and it might miss the mark in terms of flows and expectations or it might do the opposite and enter the

Also, China is buying a lot of gold.

And so what's going on over there?

And what does that have to do with risk on assets and what does that have to do with Bitcoin
