Bitcoin has surged more than 20% over the past week, crossing back above the US$80,000 mark before settling just below it. Is this simply a reactionary rebound, or something more durable amid the so-called debasement trade?
Hann Liew, Founder and CEO of Halogen Capital, joins BFM’s Morning Brief to explore how a coiled crypto market was ignited by policy headlines, Treasury intervention, and record spot ETF inflows.
He also examines how Bitcoin is competing with AI for capital allocation, the potential spillover from 10- and 30-year Treasury yield spikes, and what upcoming policy signals from Jackson Hole mean for digital asset valuations.
