CoinDesk Podcast Network - BREAKDOWN: Bitcoin Is Now a Trillion-Dollar Asset – Where Do We Go From Here?

The milestone isn’t just psychological, and potentially opens entire new groups of investors who couldn’t participate previously.

This episode is sponsored by Nexo.io.

Bitcoin is officially a $1 trillion asset. As the price surged over $54,000, the total market cap of bitcoin reached the new all-time high. 

In this episode, NLW explores the significance of the milestone, arguing:

  • There has been a slate of good news, from BlackRock rumblings to Canadian ETFs that have been driving recent price action
  • There are a variety of institutions that couldn’t allocate to the space before because it was too small but which are now in play
  • In the wake of the milestone, we’re likely to see more research house FUD
  • We’re also likely to see a number of major bitcoin positions announced in the days to come

Stuff They Don't Want You To Know - What’s Going On with the Falun Gong?

The movement known as Falun Dafa or Falun Gong began in China in the 1990s, and today people across the planet consider themselves practitioners. Adherents claim this combination of meditation, breathing exercises, mindfulness and moral philosophy is a path to enlightenment -- but the government of China disagrees.
