<p>Brian Dixon is the CEO of Off The Chain Capital. In this conversation, we discuss whether bitcoin acts as a risk-on tech asset or “insurance from war” during geopolitical conflict, the macro forces impacting the market, and why institutions are increasingly accumulating bitcoin. We also cover regulatory catalysts, bitcoin’s relationship with AI and traditional assets, and Brian’s value-investing approach to opportunities across the crypto ecosystem.</p><p>=====================</p><p><a href="https://bitcoinira.com/pomp/" target="_blank">BitcoinIRA</a>: Buy, sell, and swap 80+ cryptocurrencies in your retirement account.
