The End of Bitcoin’s Boom-Bust Era? Supply Shock 2025-08-13 | In this clip, Adrian Morris explains why Bitcoin’s famous four-year boom-bust cycle may be evolving. While past cycles aligned with halving events, they were also fueled by trillions in government stimulus that pushed investors out the risk curve. Today, with institutional accumulation via ETFs, corporate adoption, and declining volatility, the incentive to rotate out of Bitcoin is shrinking, potentially ending the old cycle dynamics.

Bitcoin to $1 Million: The Stairway to Heaven | Adrian Morris Supply Shock 2025-08-12 | In this episode, Adrian Morris of True North argues that Bitcoin’s current market phase is fundamentally different from past cycles. He attributes prior boom-bust patterns less to the halving schedule and more to stimulus-driven speculation, noting that institutional ETFs, corporate treasuries, and reduced volatility are now creating a stronger, more stable bid. This “Stairway to Heaven” thesis envisions Bitcoin steadily stair-stepping higher rather than repeating extreme four-year cycles.

Bitcoin’s 4-Year Cycle Is NOT Dead Supply Shock 2025-08-08 | In this clip, Michael Terpin pushes back on claims that Bitcoin's 4-year cycle is dead. He lays out compelling historical and onchain evidence that the cycle still drives price action—just with diminishing returns each time.

Bitcoin Cant Win Without Innovation Supply Shock 2025-07-23 | In this clip, Eli Ben-Sasson argues that we're still in the earliest phases of exploring Bitcoin and crypto’s potential.

Why Crypto Regulation Is Doomed To Fail Supply Shock 2025-07-16 | In this clip, Patrick Murck contrasts the smooth political path of the Genius Act with the stalled, contentious market structure bill. He argues that U.S. stablecoin policy is easy to align with dollar dominance, while regulating crypto market structure brings competing values into conflict—especially between trust-minimized innovation and the legacy compliance system. Patrick advocates for fixing the outdated securities law system entirely, rather than forcing crypto into it while warning that meaningful reform will take time and real debate.
