To investors,
We got more data this morning that proves tariffs are not inflationary. The Producer Price Index (PPI) is a collection of different indexes that measure the average change over different timelines for selling prices received by domestic producers for the goods and services they produce. The PPI metrics came in lower on every single measurement this morning than economists’ expectations.
This important because PPI is seen as a leading indicator of CPI. And if PPI is falling, the market starts to price in lower inflation in the future. And the data is screaming at us that inflation is going to be lower than economists previously believed.
PPI month-over-month was 0%, PPI Core month-over-month was also 0%. Zero. Zilch. Nothing. Literally flat. Call it a narrative violation.
PPI and PPI Core came in under expectations for year-over-year numbers too. The reason? Tariffs are deflationary, not inflationary. That isn’t debatable anymore.
The tariffs have been in place for 6 months. We have a blanket 10% tariff on all US imports, yet inflation has not exploded higher as everyone predicted.
The shelves were never empty. The recession has been cancelled. And the doomsday predictors look insane in hindsight. But here is the more interesting conversation — what does a lower than expected PPI metric tell us about the future?
According to our handy economic analyst Chat-GPT, here are things to consider if PPI comes in cold:
Businesses are facing less inflationary pressure on raw materials, components, or production costs.
This could lead to lower prices for consumers down the line.
It suggests that inflation might be slowing in the economy.
This is generally seen as a positive signal for the Fed if they are trying to cool inflation.
Markets may interpret it as less need for interest rate hikes (or a higher likelihood of rate cuts), which can boost stock prices and lower bond yields.
If consumer prices stay the same while input costs drop, profit margins for companies can improve.
It might also reflect slowing demand in the economy, especially if falling prices are due to weak purchasing activity rather than increased supply.
The most interesting part to me is about the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates. Lower PPI gives another data point to the Fed to get a cheaper cost of capital into the market. Will they listen? Probably not. But just because they won’t listen, doesn’t make them right.
The US economy is in much better shape than people want you to believe. Inflation is less of a problem than most people thought. And we are about to do our best impression of a growth economy to get ourselves out of this dire financial position we are in.
The unfortunate part is the growth is going to be stimulated by money printing and currency debasement. Which means stocks, bitcoin and gold are going MUCH higher through the second half of the year. Buckle up. The upwards volatility is just beginning.
Hope you have a great day. I’ll talk to everyone tomorrow.

To investors,
Bitcoin is in a class of its own. That was my message during a recent conversation with a friend. This individual was asking me about the difference between bitcoin and various altcoins. After running through the different technical differentiation points (bitcoin is truly decentralized, bitcoin operates on proof-of-work, bitcoin has a finite supply, and bitcoin has no known founder), it struck me that my friend was looking for a financial argument.
So I dug deep into bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana over the last few days. Here is what I found.
First, bitcoin has dominated the performance of the largest altcoins over the last year. Bitcoin is up about 96% in the last 12 months, while Ethereum is down about 10% during the same time frame.
Solana hasn’t faired much better — the 6th largest cryptocurrency is up about 10% in the last year, which is dwarfed by bitcoin as well.
Another way to think about these three assets is that bitcoin is hitting new all-time highs almost every day recently, while Ether is down 38% from its last all-time high in November 2021 and Solana is down 44% from its all-time high in January this year.
You could also look at bitcoin dominance for a data point. We watched bitcoin’s dominance fall from 2013 all the way through Q4 of 2022. Immediately bitcoin did a U-turn and has seen its dominance rise from a low of 38% to more than 63% today.
As I mentioned, bitcoin is in a class of its own. The decentralized, digital currency seems to have been intentionally created to serve as a reserve asset for billions of people. The store of value is doing an excellent job. As Opening Bell’s Phil Rosen pointed out yesterday, the S&P 500 is down 85% in bitcoin terms since 2020.
Bitcoin is the new hurdle rate. No other assets are able to keep up over the long run. And this is a big reason why we have seen the crypto Fear and Greed index go from a low of 15 on April 8th to a high of 70 for this year.
We are living through the good times right now. I am sure we will see bear markets in the future. But nothing feels better than holding on to an asset with volatility, especially when your contrarian trade becomes consensus.
And don’t let your friends make the mistake of confusing bitcoin and any of the altcoins. Hope you all have a great day. I’ll talk to everyone tomorrow.

To investors,
Bitcoin has been on a historic run recently. The digital currency had a weekly close above $119,000 last night. This is the highest weekly close in bitcoin’s history.
As our friends at Geiger Capital put it perfectly when they said “Hell of a candle. Price discovery.” And this is exactly how price discovery works. Bitcoin will be re-priced higher and higher until the net new buyers are exhausted.
So how high could bitcoin go during this price discovery?
You can see in the chart that back in November of 2024, bitcoin went from $70,000 to $90,000 in a matter of weeks after breaking through a previous all-time high. Bitcoin would run to $140,000 in the next 2 weeks or so if the asset followed a similar breakout of 30%. I am not predicting we will see $140,000 in short order. I am merely showing you what happened the last time bitcoin was in a similar price discovery phase.
This brings us to another question - what caused bitcoin to finally break out of the previous range between $100,000 and $110,000?
That answer is a little more complex. First, we know the bitcoin ETFs have seen significant inflows to start the month of July. Barchart highlights that last Thursday was the second highest day of inflows for the collective Bitcoin ETFs.
More than $1.2 billion of inflows for the bitcoin ETFs in a single trading session is incredible. It is hard to explain how successful the bitcoin ETF launches have been for Wall Street.
Bloomberg’s Eric Balchunas does his best with this visualization of how dominant Blackrock’s IBIT fund has been. Eric writes “$IBIT blew through the $80 billion mark last night, fastest ETF to get there in 374 days, about 5x faster than the previous record, held by $VOO, which did it in 1,814 days. Also at $83 billion it's now 21st biggest ETF overall.”
Eric then goes on to explain the collective bitcoin ETF success by saying “total assets for all the spot bitcoin ETFs crossed $140b for first time as well.” These are monster numbers for products that are about 18 months old.
On top of the ETF inflows, bitcoin options expired at the end of June for the second quarter. As Jordi Visser told me on our weekly Saturday podcast — “at the end of every quarter there is a lot of open interest from people that are selling future production…volatility was compressed. Bitcoin volatility was below 40, so I think once we came out of expiration there was less sell pressure.”
So you can’t ignore the importance of option expirations happening a few days before the bitcoin breakout. But that isn’t the full story either. Jordi goes on to explain that short sellers had built up and got squeezed which reinforced the price movement upwards. He told me “there were a lot of shorts that had built up in the $110,000 - $120,000 area around prior all-time highs.”
Now this makes more sense. We have a confluence of events. Bitcoin ETF inflows were near record levels, bitcoin options had just expired, and short sellers had become too complacent, so they got liquidated on the way up.
It doesn’t matter how high we go in the short term. The professional investing world finally realizes bitcoin is not going away. These organizations and people are going to persistently bid the asset to much higher levels in the coming years. There will be plenty of volatility along the way, including bear markets. But make no mistake about it — Wall Street is capitulating.
They are waving the white flag. No one wants to ignore, fight, or ridicule bitcoin anymore. They all want to buy and hold it. What else should they do if they can’t figure out a way to outperform it? I continue to say it over and over again…bitcoin is the new hurdle rate. If you can’t beat it, you have to buy it.
And Wall Street is finally starting to listen.
Hope you all have a great day. I’ll talk to everyone tomorrow.

To investors,
The holy grail of investing is to find asymmetric assets that present a more attractive risk-reward trade-off than other opportunities. Anyone can grab a significant return from time-to-time if they are willing to take immense risk. It is much harder to drive outsized returns when you account for the risk you are taking.
This is why bitcoin has become such an incredible asset for investors to add to their portfolio. Take a look at this chart that was shared by Bitwise’s Matt Hougan:
Quite literally, bitcoin is in a class of its own. There is not another asset even in the same zip code as the world’s largest digital currency.
Bitcoin has appreciated 93% in the last year, 1,096% in the last 5 years, and 38,122% in the last decade. The compound annual growth rate for the last 5 years is 64%. These are video game numbers for traditional investors.
But the more impressive part is how Bitcoin’s sharpe ratio stacks up against other assets. According to Case Bitcoin, bitcoin’s 5-year sharpe ratio is 1.34. Compare this to gold (0.96), stocks (0.81), and treasuries (-0.56).
See here is the thing — most retail investors ask themselves how high an asset can go. That is obviously an important question, but the more sophisticated investor asks themselves “how much can I make given the risk I have to take?”
And there is no better answer to that question than bitcoin. Literally nothing else compares. Bitcoin is the story of our generation. A decentralized, digital asset has grown from nothing into a multi-trillion dollar asset. You have the likes of Larry Fink, Paul Tudor Jones, and Stanley Druckenmiller all sharing the same talking points as your crazy libertarian uncle.
Bitcoin won’t stop going up until they stop printing money and it seems obvious now that they are never, ever going to stop printing money.
Hope you all have a great day. I’ll talk to everyone tomorrow.

To investors,
The bitcoin invasion of Wall Street has just begun. We have seen the bitcoin ETFs become the most successful ETF launch in history, bitcoin treasury companies are some of the best performing stocks in recent years, and now real estate funds are starting to marry bitcoin with one of the largest asset classes in the world.
This is happening at warp speed because Wall Street doesn’t feel like they are under attack. Instead, the traditional financial players are racing to embrace bitcoin. They realize this new asset brings them new clients, new assets under management, and new revenue. The asset also comes with volatility, which brings potential profits for those who can position themselves correctly.
The legacy players aren’t fighting off the attack — they are encouraging it. They have opened the doors to the largest pools of capital and bitcoin is being invited in. This may not sit well with the hardcore bitcoiners who were originally attracted to the asset because it was outside the system. Those libertarian ethos still exist to a degree, for example nothing about bitcoin’s system has changed, but it is important that everyone participates if you want true mass adoption, including Wall Street.
As I continue to say, bitcoin is the only asset I am aware of where it becomes less risky as it grows in size. There were few sophisticated capital allocators who could gain exposure when bitcoin was $100 - 200 billion market cap. Now that the asset is measured in trillions, almost every capital allocator on the planet can put the exposure on.
And this is where the Wall Street invasion becomes important. Wall Street is exceptional at creating wrappers for different assets. The ETF is a wrapper around spot bitcoin. The bitcoin treasury companies are wrappers around bitcoin accumulation machines. The real estate funds are wrappers around tax-advantaged, income-producing bitcoin exposure. And there will be many more wrappers.
These wrappers will appeal to different investors for different purposes. Some want as much asymmetric upside exposure as possible. Others want downside protection. Some may want yield, while another group could be attracted to the long-term compounding.
Regardless of why an investor is drawn to bitcoin, the increase in demand is impossible to ignore. I continue to believe that bitcoin has become the new hurdle rate for the younger generation. These young people will ascend to positions of power and influence inside of the most important financial institutions over time. That means bitcoin will eventually become the hurdle rate for the world.
And if bitcoin is beta exposure, you won’t be able to look in any corner of the financial system without seeing bitcoin there.
The bitcoin invasion has just begun. But this multi-decade trend will be much bigger, and more important, than majority of people realize.
Hope you all have a great day. I’ll talk to everyone tomorrow.

To investors,
A few weeks ago, I announced that my bitcoin treasury company, ProCap BTC LLC, entered into a definitive agreement for a $1 billion business combination with Columbus Circle Capital Corp 1 (Nasdaq: CCCM). As part of the proposed business combination, ProCap BTC LLC raised more than $750 million.
My goal with this business is to continue acquiring as much bitcoin as possible. ProCap BTC, LLC has been able to use over $500 million from its initial capital raise to purchase bitcoin so far. The company now holds 4,950 bitcoin in total.
There are a number of other bitcoin treasury companies available in the market as well. I had our team pull together a comparison of some of the companies, including capital raised, bitcoin held, and the mNAV premium, based on or derived from publicly available information and incorporating certain assumptions about the identified companies, implied mNAVs and transactions (some of which have not yet closed).
Here is the analysis:
You can see from the graphic that ProCap BTC, LLC which, will merge with Columbus Circle Capital Corp 1 ($CCCM) to create ProCap Financial, Inc., the go-forward public company after the closing, has raised the second most amount of capital to buy bitcoin from this list. To our knowledge, we are also the second ranked company on the list behind Metaplanet when it comes to capital deployed to purchase bitcoin.
While those metrics are interesting, we believe the more important metric for most investors in the market is the mNAV premium. This number can assist investors in evaluating whether a company is cheap or expensive on a relative basis to peers.
The graphic shows that based on the companies and transactions included in our analysis, ProCap BTC LLC has the lowest implied mNAV at 1.3x. This is substantially lower than any other company on the list, making ProCap BTC LLC’s valuation the cheapest in the ranking based on the implied mNAV metric.
If that wasn’t good enough, a key aspect of ProCap BTC LLC’s deal is that investors in Columbus Circle Capital Corp 1 stock who buy and hold shares as of the record date for the CCCM special meeting to consider and approve the business combination will have the right to redeem their public shares for the pro rata value of the trust. The pro rata value of the trust is anticipated to be approximately $10.00 per share as of the closing of the CCCM initial public offering in May. It is also anticipated that the pro rata value of the trust could be higher on a per share basis at the closing of the transaction by following certain redemption procedures that will be outlined in a proxy statement to be filed with the SEC in connection with the transaction.
This means CCCM stock holders have approximately $0.55 per share of downside (based on the approximately $10.00 per share redemption price as of the closing of the CCCM initial public offering in May). But if CCCM’s mNAV were to expand to match the next cheapest stock, Cantor Equity Partners at 2.2x, then the stock would be trading at approximately $17.82 per share.
As our lawyers like to point out, there is no promise that ProCap BTC LLC and/or Columbus Circle Capital Corp 1 will see any mNAV expansion or that the deal or post-closing company will be successful. There is always risk associated with investing in companies, regardless of whether they are public or private. But it personally feels good to be involved in a deal that is presenting the cheapest mNAV entry price for public market investors.
There is a lot of hard work ahead to build a successful company. I am excited to tackle the challenge. Hope you all have a great day. I’ll talk to everyone tomorrow.
