Bitcoin vs everything: Cabal vape, altcoin bleep and the future of crypto policy – cutting blockage
Posted on February 6, 2025 at 12:00 p.m..
Welcome to the blocking – where the initiates Crypto Haseeb Qurereshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra and Robert Leshner chopped on the last last people of Crypto. In this episode, we dissect the chaos triggered by the Trump trade war, which sent Ethereum and the alts in free fall while Bitcoin was holding hard. Why are Alts in difficulty, and is it just a flight to quality-or something deeper? We also dive into the phenomenon of the cabal the vape and its bizarre influence on the same culture, debate the question of whether the new leadership of the dry really changes the situation for the crypto and analyzes the last scandal of Binance. In addition, is the same cycle really over, or is it just another phase of the endless crypto casino?

Show the strengths
🔹 Trump’s trade war sprinkles Crypto – Ethereum and Alts Nosedive while Trump’s surprise prices shake the markets. Is it just a macro-panic or a deeper change in the feeling of investors?
🔹 The biggest day of liquidation of all time? – Crypto has seen its greatest mass liquidation in history, the CEO of Bybit estimating the actual losses closer to 8 to 10 billion dollars – more than the collapse of the FTX.
🔹 The Cabal & Memecoin Mania vape – A bizarre commercial cult fed by Twitch shapes the meta memecoin. Is it the future of cryptographic speculation, or just another ephemeral fat?
🔹 The great capitulation of Altcoin – the alts bleed while the bitcoin is strong. Has the market finally abandoned everything that is not BTC?
🔹 Reset of Hester Peirce’s crypto – The new approach to the dry could rewrite the rules for token issuers. Will industry finally get the regulatory clarity for which it begs?
🔹 Binance Under Fire (again)-The former Empire of CZ faces reactions on the lists of initiates, alleged bribes and a wave of vaporware projects that landed after the launch.
🔹 Pump.fun = the new NFT casino? -Speculation same is larger than the Boom NFT of 2021. But is it durable or is the exit liquidity dry?
🔹 The end of the same party? – Some say that the bubble has broken out, but if history tells us something, a new wave of degens will always find a way to keep the casino open.
Macro Dominance de Bitcoin – The history of the BTC macro is unstoppable, with a word of a sovereign American wealth investigating in Bitcoin. Will the market ever return to Alts?
