If you have a one to two day trade horizon, then investing in crypto is a challenging thing to do.

A lot of the speculative money in the last month or so has been going into gold.

You see silver trading as a meme coin, literally trading as a meme coin that you haven't seen

in almost a generation.

So a lot of the speculative

money that you would typically see go to crypto, you're seeing go to commodities. I think I would

tell investors to take a longer term view.

Hey, everyone, you're watching Markets Outlook on Coin Desk. I'm Jen Sanasi, and I'm joined today by SharpLink CEO and former head of digital assets strategy at BlackRock, Joseph Shalom, as we take a look at the markets this morning and what to watch this week. Hey, Joseph.

Good morning, Jen, from Frid, New York. Yes, it is frigid. It looks like you're staying warm, as am I, but I haven't been outdoors in at least 24 hours. So I'm looking forward to seeing a little bit of sun, hopefully soon. Joseph, let's talk about what we're seeing in the markets this morning.

Not a lot of movements.

They're looking a little bit shaky.

Talk to me about how you're watching Bitcoin and Eath Price Action.

Sure.

I take less of a day-to-day view and just take a step back and ask myself, with all the positive news that you've

seen around industry tailwinds for the Ethereum ecosystem, and frankly for crypto in general,

tokenization, stable coins, more defy activity. I think we need to explain why we're not seeing

price action. Again,

we're in some ways, some of the best news we've seen in years. And I think the way to explain

it is we are in a period of both geopolitical and macro uncertainty. The macro setup is actually

stealing wind from the sales from all this great news that we would

expect to be reflected in Bitcoin and ether's price.

And I think what you're starting to see, especially in Bitcoin, is it's always been the leader.
