Click here for our Fear & Greed Index]( BITCOIN 🤝 THE MOST INTERESTING MAN IN THE WORLD There’s a new Bitcoin commercial going viral. Why? It’s for Bitwise’s [Bitcoin ETF]( and features “The Most Interesting Man in the World.” AKA the guy from the Dos Equis beer [commercials](. If you still don’t know him, legend has it… - His blood smells like cologne. - The last time he flirted with danger, danger got clingy. - He can speak French. In Russian. - If he were to pat you on the back, you would list it on your resume. - His cereal never gets soggy. It sits there, staying crispy, just for him. - His beard alone has experienced more than a lesser man’s entire body. And now he’s on Bitwise’s new Bitcoin ads: [Source: @BitwiseInvest]( There’s also a 15-second commercial if you wanna check it out [here](. Milk Road Take: Ad campaigns?! Commercials?! This whole time I thought ETFs were just boring paperwork and finance mumbo jumbo... Suddenly, I’m more excited for these commercials than the Super Bowl ones. Bud Light, Budweiser, Snickers, Old Spice - give ‘em all Bitcoin ETFs and see what they can do! All jokes aside, it’ll be interesting how billion-dollar asset managers like BlackRock, Fidelity, etc. will market their crypto products. VanEck has already tapped into “the culture” by making the ticker for their ETF product [$HODL](. Now Bitwise is using “The World’s Most Interesting Man.” We’ll see what’s next, [ONBOARD FRIENDS & FAMILY TO CRYPTO INSTANTLY]( What happens when you bring the entire world of crypto to the most user-friendly wallet?

And after 11 straight weeks of inflows, digital asset products saw their first week of outflows - totaling $16M. [Source: CoinShares]( According to CoinShare’s latest [Digital Asset Funds Flow]( report: - There were minor outflows totaling $16M last week. - Trading volume was still well above the yearly average ($3.6B last week vs. $1.6B year-to-date average). - [BTC]( had the most outflows ($33M) for the week. - Altcoins saw $21M in total inflows - including [SOL](, [ADA](, and [LINK](. - [Blockchain equities]( saw a BIG week of inflows ($122M) and extended its inflow streak to 9 weeks (the largest run on record). CoinShare’s analysts believe the minor outflows last week were “more related to profit-taking rather than a turn in sentiment towards the asset class.” We’ll have to wait and see if the inflows can rebound this week. FROM $16,000 —> $12,000,000+ 🤑 Every investor dreams of turning a little bit of money into a lot of bit of money. I’m talking about going from “I’ll order the most expensive thing on the menu” money → “f*ck it, I’ll just buy the whole restaurant” money. Well, check it out. This crypto trader did the damn thing. They took $16,000 and turned it into $12,000,000. The craziest part? The investor refuses to sell… [Source: @unipcsbot]( Here’s the TL;DR on why the trader doesn’t want to sell: 1/ They believe this is the start of a new bull run. With U.S. interest rate cuts, Bitcoin ETFs, and the Bitcoin halving coming soon, they believe the bull run is only just beginning. 2/ They think BONK is the memecoin of this bull run. DOGE and SHIB both soared to multi-billion dollar market caps in 2021… - [DOGE]( hit an all-time high of $74B. - [SHIB]( hit an all-time high of $44B. BONK is currently sitting at less than $2B, so this trader thinks it’s still super early. 3/ BONK is a bet on $SOL, which they think hits $1,000 per token this cycle. They think the next wave of crypto adoption will happen on Solana, not on Ethereum. And with BONK being the main memecoin of Solana, the theory is all eyes will be on it. 4/ Retail is not here yet. They think once retail investors join the bull run and more exchanges list the token, BONK’s price will pump even more. It’s a big bet (and one that has already paid off $12M), so we’ll see what happens in a few months. We’re curious… What would you do in this situation?
