Summary
Phil and Akhil analyze Bitcoin’s price cycle relative to the real estate cycle. Bitcoin is linked to global money supply and is a symptom of economic rent speculation. The halving pattern (every ~45-48 months) shows a regular price cycle: low → halving → peak → new low. Based on the November 2022 low and expected April/May 2024 halving, the post-halving Bitcoin peak is forecast around September–October 2025.
