Key Takeaways:
  1. **Fiscal Dominance is Here:** Government spending, not just Fed policy, is the primary driver of the current inflationary pressures and will likely lead to an 8% GDP deficit.

ETH Bounces Back, What Next?

1000x Podcast

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. ETH's Rally: A Squeeze, Not Salvation. The price pop was a function of market mechanics (short liquidations), not a fundamental shift.
  2. Short ETH/BTC (Again) After the Fever Breaks. Wait for clear signs of weakness (2-3 red days) post-rally before considering shorts; the core bearish arguments hold.
  3. ETH's Tech & UX Are Dated. Crippling fees and a clunky experience mean ETH is losing ground, and L2 growth doesn't inherently justify ETH's current price.
