#CryptoMarketCapBackTo$3T

The last few weeks in financial markets have been a roller coaster.

Fear is running wild and investors are worried there is no end in sight to the recent market drawdown. I come bearing good news though.

Fidelity’s Jurrien Timmer writes “Statistically speaking the further the market falls the more likely it is to recover.

Yes, some 20% declines become 50% “super bears,” but more often than not the market has historically started to find its footing at -20%, as it appears to have done last week.”

This doesn’t mean the market is done declining, but the historical data suggests the odds are in our favor. That is better than nothing.

Raoul Pal shared the bitcoin price overlaid with M2 global liquidity at the end of last week.

You don’t have to be Albert Einstein to realize we are likely close to, or have already seen, the bottom of this drawdown.

If we have already bottomed, the question becomes “how will stocks, gold, and bitcoin perform going forward?”

Sam Callahan created an updated chart on various asset’s performance after recent economic events.

As you can see in the chart, bitcoin has almost always outperformed stocks and gold coming out of the major economic events over the last 5 years, including the US-Iran escalation in 2020, the pandemic,

Russia invading Ukraine, and the regional banking crisis in 2023.

Again, there is no guarantee bitcoin will outperform this time, but the odds are in our favor.

Don’t take my word for it though.

Cole Walmsley reminds us that bitcoin remains one of the most attractive financial assets in the world to anyone who can avoid worry in the short-term.

Cole writes “This is the most significant chart in financial markets. It's Bitcoin - measured with a 200 week moving average (aka 4 years at a time).

Zoom out, and the truth becomes crystal clear: Bitcoin has never lost purchasing power.
