BlackRock states that a 1% portfolio allocation across Asia would unlock nearly $2 trillion in new capital. Their US Bitcoin ETF has already surged to $53B, driven significantly by Asian demand. The infrastructure for this capital to move is now live (ETFs). As Asian wealth managers seek diversification and yield, the "tiny move" of 1% is a mathematical inevitability that creates immense buy-side pressure on the underlying asset. LONG Bitcoin and its proxies (IBIT) as the primary beneficiaries of this capital wall. Regulatory crackdowns in Asia or a slowdown in ETF adoption rates. |

"I literally think this time around it's the massive growth in Bitcoin derivatives and a giant fund taking advantage of it... and it has nothing to do with... the market just deciding it's time to go down." White argues that Bitcoin's decoupling from other risk assets (like Gold and Stocks, which were "ripping") was due to a specific distressed seller defending a bad short-volatility position. Now that this fund has "blown up" and been liquidated (Feb 5th), the artificial selling pressure is gone. Bitcoin should now mean-revert and catch up to the broader "debasement trade" (Gold). LONG. If the theory is wrong and the downturn is driven by genuine macro weakness or regulatory shifts rather than a single fund's liquidation. |

Bitcoin crashed to the $60k range, and sentiment is described as "the worst ever." Put volume and share volume spiked, indicating capitulation. This is a classic "liquidation break." Michael prefers buying into panic selling where sellers are exhausted. Tactical long (bought IBIT at $66k). Plan to sell on a bounce to $72k or stop out at $63k. If it crashes to $50k, he would buy for the long term. Crypto continues to trade like a high-beta software stock (correlation with IGV is high). |

Bryn Talkington
Managing Partner, Requisite Capital Management
|
Bitcoin has suffered a severe drawdown and "damage has been done" to the chart, making a V-shaped recovery unlikely. Talkington explicitly "added to the position last week." Despite the bearish technicals, the fundamental thesis warrants accumulation. The strategy here is to buy into the fear and structural damage, accepting that price action will be choppy rather than immediate upside. Buy/Accumulate. She sees a floor/accumulation zone around 56,000 to 60,000. Further technical breakdown below the 56k support level. |
