Episode Details

This week on The Chip Mahoney Show, we’re not talking about TVs or toasters — we’re talking about ETFs. With the U.S. government set to reopen and markets gearing up for a Q4 liquidity wave, a new kind of Black Friday is here — one where capital itself goes on sale. From Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF filings to the quiet rails being built under ISO 20022, we’re entering a season where the smartest money doesn’t chase discounts — it creates them. Chip Mahoney breaks down why the timing of these ETF filings isn’t random, how institutions are positioning for year-end flow, and what it all means for the rest of us trying to front-run the week. He also reveals which narratives are re-emerging inside Signals, and why this might be the strongest December setup in years — if you know where to look.

Want to go deeper into the ideas behind this show?

The best place to begin is the Start Here page — where I explain how capital is quietly reshaping the financial system, and how everyday investors can align early with the infrastructure being built beneath the headlines.

If you want to go further, the next step is the Alignment Intelligence Bundle — the system I use to interpret how structural financial shifts happen before they become obvious.

🔶 Get it here:
https://tokentrust.gumroad.com/l/alignmentintelligencebundle

Inside you’ll find:

• Aligned or Left Behind — the framework for understanding alignment before clarity
• The Alignment Checklist — a practical guide for identifying positioning signals
• And 30 days of Signals access, where I track the infrastructure and assets institutions are quietly building

Because in structural shifts, recognition always arrives later than alignment.

The Chip Mahoney Show delivers financial intelligence for the Digital Dollar era — helping investors, advisors, and builders stay early, not reactive.
