Latest / Simply Bitcoin / Samson Mow Explains Why Bitcoin Didn't Go Up in 2025
Transcript
- 0:00This is the year after the halving.
- 0:01Historically, price tends to run up and bitcoins become like a.
- 0:05Stable coin. Volatilities really, you know,
- 0:09decrease tremendously. What's the deal with that?
- 0:12I think. If.
- 0:13You're talking about $1 million Omega candles.
- 0:17It's all happening. It's just a matter of time.
- 0:19I think there are a number of things happening.
- 0:22Maybe it's the shake out. Recently we dropped well 20K and
- 0:27that's kind of we got, we got the major.
- 0:28Candle just in the right direction.
- 0:31But you can see like the volatility has declined a lot.
- 0:33Like I think that was the largest flush ever of
- 0:37liquidations, that largest flush ever of liquidations.
- 0:41And all we do is drop 20 all the coins dropped, you know, down to
- 0:45the depths of hell. But you know, Bitcoin largely
- 0:49unaffected. And it goes to show like the
- 0:51resilience is there. It's just there are factors that
- 0:54will push us down or keep us down.
- 0:56You can theorize about many things, but maybe I it's not one
- 1:00answer, it's many different things.
- 1:01Maybe there is an exchange selling Bitcoin that they don't
- 1:04have, like FTX did. Maybe it is some paper Bitcoin.
- 1:07Maybe it's whales rotating. Maybe it's people moving into
- 1:10ETFSI don't know. Maybe there's people taking
- 1:12profits. All of these things can be
- 1:14possible. We don't know.
- 1:15But what we do know is there is a limit.
- 1:18And what we do know is it's impossible that, you know,
- 1:21Michael Saylor gets 10% of the supply at these levels.
- 1:24He's going to get 10%. Like that's just ridiculous.
- 1:27So the price has to move sooner or later and I think it's going
- 1:31to be sooner. The other thing probably is like
- 1:34also running too hot. Ethereum was like, you know,
- 1:36getting past its all time highs ripples at like $3.50, which is
- 1:42ridiculous. And I think when alts run too
- 1:44high, there's always a correction.
- 1:46And I, I've after our volcano interview, I kind of felt
- 1:50bearish because the alts were grunting.
- 1:52And we just know like that is unsustainable.
- 1:54And when they go, you know, Bitcoin always will follow down
- 1:58a bit, but then we kind of shake them off and we go back up.
- 2:00Yeah, and they never recover, right?
- 2:02Yes. So Samson, we are getting to the
- 2:05end, but we saw the sunset, you know, while we were recording
- 2:09this timed it perfectly. We we saw a wild Bevin dolphin,
- 2:14which was hilarious. It's.
- 2:16Not a volcano, but it's pretty good.
- 2:17Yeah, this is good. This is good.
- 2:19I want to ask you, 100 years from now, 200 years from now,
- 2:22500 years from now, 1000 years from now, how do you want to be
- 2:25remembered? What is Samsung's legacy?
- 2:27What is the Jan 3 legacy? Well, hopefully we actually do
- 2:31get Bitcoin bonds launched. I think that will be a big game
- 2:34changer for the world. It's it's showing that the
- 2:37strategy playbook which has worked will work for nation
- 2:40states. I think the question will will
- 2:42really be as we transition from the Fiat world into a Bitcoin
- 2:47world, did it go well or did it go poorly.
- 2:51And if it goes well, I would like to be remembered as someone
- 2:54that push it on the track to going well.
- 2:56I love that Samsung, Mel, thank you so much.
