James Van Straten: BTC Bull Market Has Begun – Rotation from Gold Driver Back to $126K

Where will the money for Bitcoin’s next rally come from? CoinDesk’s James Van Straten looks at rotation out of gold, which sits about 25% below its all-time high, and what a correction in record-high US equities could mean for Bitcoin. He explains how stablecoin inflows have historically trickled into Bitcoin and why that could repeat. The discussion also covers Scott Bessent’s bond buybacks and the strong Bitcoin and gold rally that followed.
