Show Notes
Raoul Pal joins Milk Road Crypto to explain why he believes crypto investors are being handed a rare opportunity: the chance to own the infrastructure that could power the emerging AI and machine economy. In this episode, Raoul breaks down his latest macro and crypto outlook, including why global liquidity, not individual Fed decisions, remains the key force driving Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana and the broader crypto market. He explains why AI investment is currently absorbing enormous amounts of capital, what needs to change for crypto liquidity to accelerate, and why a weaker dollar could become an important catalyst for risk assets.

Jamie explains why he's shifting his portfolio toward DeFi and Layer 1 blockchains after years of Bitcoin dominance.

In today's episode of Milk Road Crypto, John and LG break down why Bitcoin's Bollinger Bands are tightening, signaling that a major volatility event could be approaching. John identifies $83,500 as the key breakout level that could send BTC toward $90,000-$95,000, while $78,000 remains a crucial level of support. Meanwhile, traditional financial markets are showing signs of stress. Hedge funds are unwinding leverage, AI stocks are facing selling pressure, and macroeconomic uncertainty continues to grow. Yet Bitcoin is refusing to break down. Is this the ultimate bullish signal, or is the crypto market preparing for another major correction?
