“You Missed It.” Bitcoin’s Weirdest Setup Yet

Larry Lepard, Bob Burnett and Gary Leland on the September move: Bitcoin caught air off 62 and ran to 81 before settling near 77, the Fed's rate decision, Treasury buybacks tripling to $6 billion, and why half the people mining Bitcoin are probably losing money right now. Larry's call: $180,000 by the end of 2027. Bob's view from inside mining: the median cost of production is in the mid $60,000s, and spot is barely above it. And for anyone still waiting for $50,000 — Larry has a two-word answer. Plus: the fourth Boomer joins us from an elk camp in Colorado. 00:00 Give up.
