The Final Hurdle Before The Next Bitcoin Bull Run w/ Bitwise Boyz & Jesse Eckel
In this episode of The Milk Road Show, we sit down with the Bitwise Boyz (Matt Hougan & Ryan Rasmussen) and Jesse Eckel to unpack the biggest “misread” in crypto right now, and why what looks like chop… might actually be the final setup before liftoff. We’re talking silent IPOs, OG capitulation, ETF inflows, TGA liquidity, and how the real bull run may not be about the four-year cycle at all.
