Show Notes
Matt’s back with a cycle check and a quick update on Bitcoin’s trend-to-price multiple, which just tapped 1.25x. That’s not high - actually, it’s right in the mid-cycle zone. He walks through what this level has meant in past cycles (2012, 2016, 2020), how long we’ve historically spent above it, and what it might signal if this rally continues. He also breaks down how the trend multiple behaves around blow-off tops, pointing out how rare and brief those high-multiple moments actually are. So if you’re waiting for the parabolic move, the data shows we’re not there yet.
