"Bitcoin isn’t digital gold—it’s something far more powerful."

In this episode, Scott is joined by two of the most respected names in on-chain analytics and Bitcoin macro strategy: Willy Woo, legendary data analyst and market commentator, and Yann Alleman, co-founder of Swissblock and architect of institutional-grade Bitcoin strategy. Together, they break down why Bitcoin’s trajectory isn’t just about price—it’s about fundamentally redefining value on a global scale.

You’ll gain insider insight into Bitcoin’s path to 50%+ of global GDP, the rise of sovereign and corporate treasury adoption, and why volatility is not a bug—but a feature—of an evolving macro asset class. The trio explores how Bitcoin stacks up against fiat, gold, and altcoins, the role of liquidity flows, and why traditional portfolio management is being forced to adapt. You’ll also hear about the tools behind Bitcoin Vector, their new initiative aimed at professionalizing Bitcoin analytics and educating the next wave of institutional adoption.

This is not your typical Bitcoin hype conversation—it's a masterclass in understanding the next evolution of money.

You’ll Learn:

  • How Bitcoin could realistically capture 50% of global GDP and what that means for investors
  • Why measuring Bitcoin in fiat terms distorts long-term value projections
  • How on-chain data reveals Bitcoin's unique position as a macro asset, not just digital gold
  • What liquidity trends tell us about Bitcoin’s sensitivity to global monetary policy
  • How to interpret Bitcoin’s volatility compression as a sign of market maturity
  • Why corporate and sovereign treasury adoption is accelerating—and what to watch for
  • How to assess the real risk behind Bitcoin-holding companies using convertibility metrics
  • Why altcoin dominance is likely to shrink as Bitcoin consolidates its role as the anchor asset
  • How stablecoins and Bitcoin together reshape the foundation of global finance
  • What top funds get wrong about portfolio allocation in a high-liquidity Bitcoin world
