Welcome to The Bitcoin Layer, where we bring you research, analysis, and education for all things bitcoin and macro. In this episode, Nik explains why the Fed has already started teasing an early end to Quantitative Tightening. In order to fully understand the Fed's motive, we dive into RRP (Reverse Repo) balances declining, define SOFR and why this rate can tell us about the health of financial plumbing, and forecast why the end of QT sets the table for QE in the next financial crisis. Nik also ends with the news that Bitcoin ETFs will begin trading on Thursday.New YouTube videos M/W/F — New Substack posts T/R/SThe Bitcoin Layer is brought to you by River.Visit https://river.com and start buying today, or use http://River.com/TBL to get up to $100 when you signup and buy BitcoinSubscribe to TBL on Substack: https://TheBitcoinLayer.substack.comFollow TBL on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheBitcoinLayerFollow TBL on LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/company/TheBitco...Follow TBL on Instagram: https://instagram.com/TheBitcoinLayerFollow TBL on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thebitcoinlayerSubscribe to The Bitcoin Layer on your favorite podcast platform.Subscribe and turn on notifications for TBL on YouTube.Use code TBLYT10 for 10% off all The Bitcoin Layer Merch at http://TheBitcoinLayer.com/merchSign up for the free Monetary History course on @SaylorAcademy : http://sylr.org/MonetaryHistoryContribute to The Bitcoin Layer via Lightning Network: thebitcoinlayer@zbd.ggNik Bhatia's Twitter: https://twitter.com/timevalueofbtcResearch Associate Joe Consorti's Twitter: https://twitter.com/JoeConsortiCreative Director Matthew Ball's Twitter: https://twitter.com/matthewrballBlock Height 824920#TheBitcoinLayer #NikBhatia #FederalReserve #QuantitativeTightening #MonetaryPolicy #FinancialAnalysis #RRPbalances #SOFR #FinancialPlumbing #EconomicForecast #QE #FinancialCrisis #BitcoinETFs #MarketInsights #EconomicNews #InvestingTips #FinanceAnalysis #Shares #BitcoinFund #ETF #ETFs #BitcoinETF #GreyScale #GBTC #Binance #Coinbase #SEC #BlackRock #Fidelity #Bloomberg #Analysis #Charts #Tradingview #InvestmentStrategy #MarketWatch #StockMarket #PassiveInvesting #IndexFunds #FinancialMarkets #MarketWatch #ETFPortfolio #ETFNews #FreeMarket #FreeMarkets #Markets #USTreasury #TreasuryBills #BalanceSheet #FED #Debt #Inflation #Statistic #Rates #Interest #Asset #Bitcoin #Dollar #Sats #BTC #Market #Currency #Crypto #Analysis #Investment #News #Finance #Education #Blockchain #Mining #BitcoinMining #Macro The Bitcoin Layer and its guests do not provide investment advice.Subscribe to The Bitcoin Layer on Soundwise
