Transcript excerpt English

Now, what's going on in mid to late June, you ask? Well, the next Fed meeting is mid-June, but the Fed meeting is not the important meeting. Even though it'll be Kevin Warsh's first meeting as chair, and it'll be important, it's not the main thing to watch. The main thing to watch in mid-June is not the Fed, but it's the Bank of Japan. Because the Bank of Japan is likely going to raise rates in June. There's a good chance. Not a It's not a sure thing. There's a good chance they will raise rates in June. And there is precedent for Bitcoin forming a low right after they raise rates. August of 2024 the Bank of England raised rates or July was July and then Bitcoin bottomed like a week later in early August. Okay? what if Bitcoin falls off in June. People get scared and then we rally again in July and then we go through this whole process once again. And I mean it is a it is a brutal process of of like you know and I think this

"So, we have now seen them cross. And you know, usually when they cross, the low's not immediately in like that's never happened before. I'm not saying it can't, but it's never happened before. Usually the month though, usually the low occurs within about one to three to like one to four months. Okay. So that could be anywhere between say like now and July, August, September, October, who knew, right? "

"If Bitcoin were to crash to 40K this month, then the odds of the low being in June go up astronomically. If the low just holds at 60, then there's there's a chance that's the low, but the jury would still be out, right? "

"My best guess is that Bitcoin sets a low in June and then has a counter trend rally and then has another low in October. I would argue that there is a high likelihood that the October low would be lower than the June low. "

"If you look at 2018, you can see it started in September. The S&P M2 factor would actually correspond to September. And you know, if that is the case, we know that Bitcoin, well we don't know, but I think Bitcoin might bottom in October. And so if the stock market were to top in September, then maybe Bitcoin would bottom out pretty quickly just because it would react to whatever the stock market's reacting to a lot quicker because it's just further up the risk curve. It would get hit a lot quicker than the stock market and potentially Bitcoin then finds that low sometime in the fourth quarter. Maybe as early as as October. "
