1670: "Here's How Bitcoin Skyrockets 1000x to $70 Million" - Michael Saylor

Bitcoin surged above $87,000 as the Bank of Japan hiked interest rates, sending the yen sliding and reigniting global macro volatility. According to Arthur Hayes, this policy shift could act as a catalyst that catapults Bitcoin to $1 million, as capital searches for an escape from unstable fiat systems. On-chain data adds fuel to the thesis: Bitcoin's weekly RSI has fallen to its most oversold level since the $15K lows, historically a zone associated with major trend reversals. Meanwhile, cheap energy is quietly turning Libya into a Bitcoin mining hotspot, and lawmakers confirm the Crypto CLARITY Act is headed for Senate markup in January. This episode breaks down why central bank policy shocks may accelerate Bitcoin's role as a global monetary hedge — and why some believe the path to seven figures is no longer theoretical.

CF Benchmarks now views Bitcoin as a core portfolio staple, projecting a $1.4 million BTC price target by 2035 as institutional adoption, liquidity expansion, and global integration accelerate. The long-term thesis strengthens even as short-term volatility shakes weak hands. At the same time, MSCI's new crypto treasury rules could force up to $15 billion in selling, creating what many see as a classic institutional shakeout - pressure now, positioning later. Historically, these periods have marked accumulation phases ahead of major structural moves. Meanwhile, Bitcoin ETFs recorded $457M in inflows, signaling early positioning by institutions, while U.S. CPI inflation just hit its lowest level since 2021, adding fuel to the macro tailwind narrative. This episode breaks down why short-term pain and long-term upside are colliding - and how Bitcoin continues transitioning from speculative asset to global portfolio cornerstone.

Michael Saylor has ignited one of the most controversial debates in Bitcoin's history by suggesting that lost Bitcoin may need to remain frozen in a future quantum-era upgrade. His argument: Bitcoin won't be broken by quantum computing — it will be hardened, with active coins migrating forward while lost coins stay locked, increasing security and reducing supply. But Bitcoin purists are pushing back hard, warning that freezing coins violates core principles of self-sovereignty and could trigger a contentious chain split if ever proposed as a soft fork. Critics argue no one has the right to freeze another person's Bitcoin — even if the coins are presumed lost. This episode dives deep into the Bitcoin governance war, the philosophical fault lines between pragmatism and purity, and what this debate reveals about Bitcoin's evolution as it collides with nation-states, institutions, and future technologies.

In their view, Bitcoin is likely to reach a new all-time high in early 2026, marking a decisive break from legacy cycle theory. On-chain data supports the shift: Bitcoin sharks are accumulating at the fastest pace in 13 years, even as volatility shakes out short-term traders.

Strategy has now crossed an astonishing $50 billion in total Bitcoin spending, reinforcing its position as the most aggressive and convicted corporate Bitcoin accumulator in history. The move comes as long-term models project a $6 million Bitcoin supercycle, driven by global liquidity expansion, institutional balance-sheet adoption, and nation-state infrastructure buildout. While short-term macro noise continues, deeper structural trends tell a different story. Bhutan is expanding green Bitcoin mining with Cumberland-backed infrastructure, Visa is forming a stablecoin advisory team as on-chain dollars go mainstream, and capital continues rotating toward Bitcoin as a superior monetary asset. This episode breaks down Strategy's historic accumulation, the $6M supercycle thesis, and why Bitcoin's long-term trajectory may be far more explosive than most investors are prepared for.
