Can Bitcoin Outpace TradFi? Market Convergence or Monetary Singularity
Show Notes
Bitcoin’s trend growth is clear — but is it sustainable? In this episode, Matthew explores whether Bitcoin’s return profile will continue declining or eventually converge with traditional finance. He walks through trailing 12-month returns, exponential growth tensions, the decline in blow-off tops, and how gold, stocks, and fiat might cross paths with Bitcoin’s monetary value. The core question: Can Bitcoin remain the most "saleable" asset when its returns no longer outperform? Or will it force a new capital market structure built around equity and unconventional interest models?
