Bits + Bips: Who Wins If the GENIUS Act Passes, and Is Bitcoin’s Rally Over? - Ep. 869
Bitcoin broke its all-time high. Meanwhile, stablecoin legislation is about to pass. And the macro picture is a powder keg.
In this episode of Bits + Bips, Steve Ehrlich, Ram Ahluwalia, and Noelle Acheson are joined by Austin Campbell to break down what’s really driving markets, and what could break them. From the GENIUS Act reshaping stablecoins to tariffs putting pressure on the Fed, to the Pump.fun ICO and memecoin mania, nothing is off limits.
And with crypto ripping, is it time to ride the rally, or take some risk off the table?
