Bitcoin: The Unemployment Rate & Dubious Speculation
Benjamin Cowen
Summary of Video Transcript
- No one can predict the market with certainty
- The speaker uses if-then statements to make educated guesses about Bitcoin's performance
- Possible scenarios:
- Unemployment rate comes in low (below 4.3%): good for Bitcoin
- Unemployment rate comes in at 4.3%: Bitcoin will likely chop around
- Unemployment rate comes in higher than 4.3%: correction in the market
- The speaker's reasoning is based on last year's trends:
- Bitcoin dropped when unemployment rate was rising
- Bitcoin rose when unemployment rate was not increasing
- The market doesn't need a reason to go up, but it needs a reason to go down
