Strategy's Trillion Dollar Bitcoin Bet | Jeff Walton

Jeff Walton is a financial analyst, a former reinsurance broker and the Founder of True North.

In this episode, we break down the rise of Bitcoin treasury companies, why Strategy is playing an entirely different game, and how Saylor’s new financial instruments are creating a Bitcoin-native yield curve. We also discuss how these instruments could absorb trillions from the fixed income market and what that means for Bitcoin’s long-term price floor.

We get into the risks of corporate treasury models, why some of the new entrants look like the 2017 ICO market, whether these structures could lead to reflexive crashes in a bear market and the future of equity in a Bitcoin-denominated world.
