Bitcoin Breaks $123K — But Where’s Retail?
Bitcoin just broke past $123,000 for the first time ever — but the hype is missing. Where are the Reddit threads, the TikTok frenzies, the Coinbase downloads? In this episode of The Bitcoin Effect, Nate Martin dives into what’s fueling this price run and why retail feels absent: surging ETF demand, macroeconomic pressure, and pro-Bitcoin politics. But beneath the surface is a growing concern about self-custody and whether this rally is just another Wall Street product in disguise.
👉 Covered in this episode:
• Institutional inflows: $2.7B in ETF demand in one week
• Retail’s silent participation: 60% of ETF buys through brokers
• Global debt and inflation: macro tailwinds for Bitcoin
• Trump’s strategic Bitcoin reserve and political stance
• Self-custody vs. ETF exposure: the real risk
🎯 If you believe in the freedom Bitcoin offers, make sure you’re holding it—not just owning a receipt.
