How the Fed Lost Control of Liquidity (and What It Means for Bitcoin)
Description
In this episode, Nik and Demian unpack how the Fed’s fight to manage repo market tightness is reshaping liquidity and Bitcoin’s price behavior. They break down the balance between inflation, employment, and the Fed’s “unofficial” financial stability mandate, exploring how fiscal dominance and credit creation now drive global money flows more than monetary policy itself. Nik explains why Bitcoin acts as a liquidity asset, not a safe haven, and how the next cycle will be defined by the real economy, not Fed narratives.
