Michael Saylor just said the bottom is in and the Bitcoin bull market has begun. Massive couple of days for Gigached, Strategy purchased another 250 BTC, and he just cooked at the World Bank. It is becoming obvious that the future of Bitcoin is the future of finance, money and credit. While Saylor says 100K is coming soon and we march on from here at 30% a year, we know he's being humble, because that's not bullish enough for Arthur Hayes, myself or you. And actually, if history rhymes, we could be at 250K Bitcoin in just two months. Not only is Arthur Hayes getting bullish, none other than Paul Tudor Jones and Blackrock may have just signaled that billions upon billions could be fleeing to safety in a hurry. Smash the like, subscribe if you're new here and strap in because we have some massively bullish news to get to today.

Well, let's get to more on strategy. Joining us from DC Fintech Week at the World Bank for an exclusive interview is Michael Saylor, founder and executive chairman of Strategy. It's the world's largest publicly traded Bitcoin accumulator. Michael, always good to see you. Thanks so much for joining us. Bitcoin had a great summer, still though about 30% below last year's all time highs. What is your view on where Bitcoin goes from here?

Michael Saylor (1:28)

Well, we think we're at the beginning of a bull market.

We normally look at where Bitcoin is versus 200 week moving average and we bounce slightly below it. Now we're moving up 25% premium.

The headwinds were restrictive trade policy, restrictive foreign policy, restrictive currency or monetary policy. And now we're rotating into some tailwinds. We've got a very favorable regulatory environment. We've got banking adoption accelerating. We've got tokenized securities and the digital asset space accelerating. We've got the formation and the strengthening of digital credit networks and of course, banking credit coming online. And all these things are very auspicious for the asset.

Nico Moran (2:16)

We are back, baby. We're well on our way. And speaking of catalysts, it would appear that massive debasement is upon us. How massive, you ask?

How about the kind that sends Bitcoin to 250K in just two months?

Arthur Hayes (2:29)

Maybe, but I think that Xi Jinping is trying to keep the yuan strong. And eventually they're going to have to weaken the currency very, very rapidly.

SPEAKER_5 (2:38)

How will they do that?

Arthur Hayes (2:40)

They'll basically start money printing to revive the consumer economy, to prop up the housing market, to pay more social services to the people.

And they'll let the currency be the deflating actor. And so the yuan will go to 7, 8, 9, something like that. Okay, cool.

SPEAKER_5 (2:56)

So we had, in your opinion, Bitcoin map for a low in? Yes. Okay, so this cycle has been to the bear side, has been very different to the other ones, not as deep.

Normally, by this point here, we're down like 77% plus. Right now today, down like whatever it is, 30% ish. What's your outlook for Q4 and Q1?

Arthur Hayes (3:18)

I think we can retake the all time high in Bitcoin. I think that's going to be predicated on the blow up of the French debt market. I think that is going to generate a money printing response from the Fed and the Treasury in the United States to contain this fallout. And also we get the ECB, maybe, but I don't think so, joining the party as well. So that takes us to $125,000, $250,000 on Bitcoin by year end.

And then we start talking about when does the AI bubble burst and how much money are they going to print to forestall that from ever happening. And that's the 2027, 2028 story.

Nico Moran (3:50)

$250,000 is just the beginning. Like Saylor said earlier, we just went through the most restrictive environment in Bitcoin's history, and it still climbed to $126,000. And despite all that chaos that Arthur Hayes just spoke on, Bitcoin is holding strong in the $80,000s. That's got me bullish, Arthur Hayes and Saylor bullish, and we've got more news here from BlackRock and Paul Tudor Jones. They're both bearish on stocks, and a massive rotation of capital could be upon us. And you can guarantee a smidge, a little smidge of that billions of dollars will flood into Bitcoin and alternative assets and stores of value. Check out Paul Tudor Jones' warning.

Paul Tudor Jones (4:35)

2027 is going to be really, really challenging for the stock market. And I say that because if I just look at the flows, and that's probably what we look at the most, what I look at the most, you've probably got the most negative flow picture for the US stock market that we've had, say, since 2002 And by that, I mean, we sum up all the buybacks, M&A, all the positive things that has powered this market so much for the past, say, since 2009 If I sum up all those, and then I subtract from that the IPOs, secondaries, unlocks, etc., then you've got the, certainly the most negative flow picture since 2009
