<p>In this episode, McIntosh and Kenshin dive into the current Bitcoin market conditions and whether we're heading into a bear market. With Bitcoin hovering around $83,000—down roughly 34% from its all-time high—the hosts debate what historical patterns suggest versus what unique factors might be at play this cycle. They discuss the impact of ETF selling pressure (including BlackRock's record outflows), institutional buying from El Salvador and MicroStrategy, and the macroeconomic forces that could shape Bitcoin's trajectory in the coming months. <br />The conversation touches on potential U.S. monetary policy shifts, the effectiveness of recent economic measures, and why the hosts believe DCA remains the smartest strategy regardless of short-term price action. Whether you're nervous about the dip or seeing it as a buying opportunity, this episode offers perspective on staying grounded during volatile times.<br /><br /><strong>Bitcoin Price at Time of Recording</strong><br /><br />Nov 21st, 2025: $83,500 USD | 72,500 Euro<br /><br /><strong>Block Height at Time of Recording</strong><br /><br />924,609<br /><br /><strong>Episode Page</strong><br /><br /><a href="https://satoshis-plebs.com/episode-233" target="_blank">https://satoshis-plebs.com/episode-233</a><br /><br /><strong>Music Credits</strong><br /><br /><a href="https://wavlake.com/joemartin" target="_blank">Joe Martin</a><br />The Jetsons</p> <p><strong>Website<br /></strong><br /><a href="https://satoshis-plebs.com" target="_blank">https://satoshis-plebs.com</a><a href="https://satoshis-plebs.com/" target="_blank"><br /></a><br />Podcasting 2.0 Apps available at <a href="http://podcastapps.com" target="_blank">http://podcastapps.com</a> and Value4Value information page available here: <a href="https://value4value.info" target="_blank">https://value4value.info</a><a href="https://value4value.info/" target="_blank"><br /></a><br />McIntosh can be reached by email at [email protected] and on Twitter at <a href="https://x.com/McIntoshFinTech" target="_blank">@McIntoshFinTech</a>.
