In the same stretch, JPMorgan estimated $50 billion has flowed into crypto this year and Standard Chartered opened Bitcoin trading and custody to clients in the UAE. Michael argues that neither doing it all yourself nor trusting a single custodian can carry Bitcoin to global money, so a third way has to win. The hosts then weigh federal interest that now tops the value of US gold reserves, a 3.7% CPI print, gold revaluation versus a Bitcoin reserve, and why tokenization is bullish. They close on Alphabet&#39;s $205 billion AI spending plan and a market where ten stocks make up 39.5% of the S&amp;P 500.</p><p><br></p><p>CHAPTERS</p><p>00:00 - Welcome and the Minneapolis meetup</p><p>03:02 - JPMorgan&#39;s $50B estimate and Standard Chartered&#39;s UAE launch</p><p>04:20 - The Ledger reseller attack and Trezor&#39;s pullback</p><p>05:50 - Banks move in as self-custody takes hits</p><p>09:47 - Why Bitcoin nee
