Tapping Into Crypto

Ted and Calum are running the studio this week and wrapping their heads around a massive market disconnect.

While Bitcoin takes a sudden flash crash below US$60K, certain altcoins are completely ignoring gravity and throwing an absolute party. 

In this episode, the boys get straight into the bizarre prediction market conspiracy behind Michael Saylor's latest Bitcoin trade and Calum's aggressive strategy to stay in cash until the market bottoms out. We also dive into the massive regulatory shake-up as new SEC Chair Paul Atkins takes over and predicts all traditional markets will move on-chain within five years .

Plus, we cover why AI trading agents like Siren are outperforming human emotion, a massive 770% monthly pump for a new project called Audiera, and the new Australian capital gains tax changes that are about to force a lot of investors to hold Bitcoin for the long term . 

You’ll hear: 

- What actually triggered the sudden Bitcoin drop and whether the panic is entirely overblown

- The crazy coincidence behind Michael Saylor selling right inside a betting window 

- Why Calum is stubbornly sitting on the sidelines with a downside target between $37K and $45K 

- The New SEC Era: How Paul Atkins is changing the industry with a brand new token taxonomy system

- Are AI Agents taking over?

- How the latest budget changes are completely destroying the old cycle-trading strategy

… and much more!

Pav and Calum are back, and they are talking about some of the most confusing updates in the market. With Ted still missing in action, the boys are left in the studio to figure out why on earth Bitcoin is taking a dive while certain altcoins are absolutely throwing a party.

In this episode, we are tackling the total shocker coming out of the Stellar Lumens camp, with XLM casually exploding 65% in just seven days on the back of institutional real-world asset hype.

We are also unpacking an absolutely wild court case in the US where someone is trying to lay a legal claim to 3.8 million dormant Bitcoin, essentially trying to use old lost-and-found property laws to seize $85 billion worth of Satoshi’s stash.

Calum explains why traditional crypto ETFs are looking pretty weak right now, even though Hyperliquid and AI tokens completely ignore the gravity of the market and continue to pull vertical runs. Plus, Pav drops some essential, no-nonsense advice on how to actually invest and keep your head straight when the charts look completely chaotic.

You’ll hear: 

~ How XLM just woke up from a multi-year nap to post a massive 65% green candle

~ The $85 Billion Satoshi Lawsuit

~ Traditional fund flows are slowing down while decentralized protocols and AI treasuries are getting greedy

~ The AI infrastructure: Boom or Burst?

~ Pav's Survival Guide on how to position your portfolio and manage your emotions 

… and much more!

Ted has officially abandoned the studio for a two-week holiday, so Pav is joined by our resident fraud and risk expert, Calum, to try and make sense of a market that is tearing up the traditional crypto playbook.

The boys are breaking down the real drivers behind the HYPE pump, looking at everything from Goldman Sachs quietly scooping up massive positions to a brand new US Spot ETF sucking in $74 million in its first week and a half.

Plus, we look at why historical midterm election data says a stock market drawdown is looming between May and October, why billionaire fund managers are dumping 95% of their blue-chip bags, and the legendary "Pentagon Pizza Index" that might be flashing an early warning sign for global markets.

You’ll hear: 

- How Hyperliquid is completely eclipsing the rest of the market and trading in brand new territory .

- Why giant fund managers and NASDAQ-listed companies lare aggressively building Hyperliquid treasuries 

- Inside the $74 million in cumulative net flows that completely flipped the "sell the news" script 

- The historical data that shows stock markets behaviour between May and October during a midterm year.

- Why Kevin Warsh stepping in could signal a historical 6-to-12 month market drawdown .

- The hilarious (but oddly accurate) way internet sleuths track geopolitical tension via late-night fast-food orders

Crypto finally has some good news in a bear market… so why did the market still sell off?

This week, Ted and Pav unpack the Clarity Act, why everyone in crypto is suddenly talking about regulation again, and what it could mean for exchanges, founders, DeFi, stablecoins, investors and the broader industry.

They also get into the weird market signals happening right now: retail activity is at historic lows, ETFs are starting to see outflows, Bitcoin is still holding up better than previous cycles, and some very specific pockets of the altcoin market are still moving…

You’ll hear: 

00:00 - Why the Clarity Act is suddenly everywhere and what it actually means for crypto

07:56 - Why retail Bitcoin activity is at historic lows, even while prices are still holding up

11:15 - What ETF outflows could tell us about the next two weeks

15:10 - Why RWAs are outperforming the market and attracting serious institutional money

20:20 - Why blockchain could fix one of the biggest inefficiencies in traditional markets

22:39 - How tokenisation could open up 24/7 markets

This week’s episode of Tapping Into Crypto brings some serious "all-rounder" energy to the studio! With Ted still settling into his Sydney digs, Pav is joined by Aussie cricketing royalty and Swyftx-sponsored athlete, Hayden Kerr.

We’re trading the pitch for the charts as Hayden spills the tea on his seven-year crypto journey, from losing his first password (classic) to DCA’ing his match payments into Bitcoin while on the road with the Sydney Sixers. We dive into the locker room vibes, the gut-wrenching feeling of "chasing your tail" in a bull market, and why Hayden thinks the Fear & Greed index is the ultimate playbook for not stuffing up your portfolio.

Whether you’re a die-hard cricket fan or just trying to survive the next cycle without catching a falling knife, this chat is a total six.

You’ll hear: 

- What life in the off-season looks like for an elite cricketer and Hayden’s plans for international tournaments

- How Hayden started DCA’ing his "match payments" into Bitcoin

- Why getting the "fundamentals" right in cricket is exactly like surviving the crypto markets

- The "Bored Ape" locker room stories of teammates on NFTs and how the "taboo" of crypto is slowly fading among athletes

- Hayden’s strategy in using the fear and greed index when buying
