I remain bullish on Bitcoin in the long term - the U.S market alone has the potential upend the landscape.

Everyone is talking about gold and silver but the real metal of the future is copper. I’m extremely long on this metal for several reasons but the key conviction is stemmed from the fact that copper mining isn’t something you can spin up quickly and global demand is insatiable.

Two crypto stories this week stood out to me, and not because of price. US regulators giving crypto firms a path toward national trust banks. And JPMorgan launching a tokenised money market fund.

It also explains why this phase feels slower and less exciting. More licences. More compliance. More boring conversations with lawyers and regulators. But that’s the cost of handling real money at scale.

These kinds of weeks don’t move charts much. But if you’re actually building long-term financial infrastructure, they’re the ones that matter.

A lot of people are asking ‘What actually caused the crypto slump. 1) Institutional selling through Bitcoin ETFs triggered it. US spot ETFs saw ~US$3.4B in net outflows; the worst month since launch. BlackRock’s IBIT even had a record single-day withdrawal.

3) Forced liquidations accelerated the fall. Nearly US$1B in leveraged long positions were wiped out in days. These cascades create deeper, sharper dips than fundamentals alone would justify.

Bottom line: This was a liquidity-driven correction, not a technology failure. Nothing in Bitcoin or Ethereum “broke.” This was institutions de-risking + macro pressure + leverage unwinding. Stay rational. Volatility is part of the asset class, but fundamentals remain intact.
