CMLA August - Bitcoin Cycle

​This month, we’re diving into one of the most enduring ideas in crypto: the Bitcoin cycle.

​Historically, Bitcoin has followed a four-year rhythm tied to the halving — when the block reward is cut in half. While the direct impact of each halving has diminished over time, the cyclical nature of the market remains very real: bear market depression, followed by recovery, and eventually retail-driven euphoria.

​In this session, we’ll explore:

• ​What drove the Bitcoin cycle historically?

• ​How useful is the halving as a timing signal today?

• ​How have ETFs and Treasury companies impacted the market?

• ​Should we still expect brutal bear markets?

• ​Are we mid-cycle, late-cycle… or entering a new phase entirely?

​Whether you're new to crypto or deep in the data, all are welcome. Bring your questions, your thoughts, and your takes.

​🍻 We’ll kick off at 6pm at Santa Monica Brew Works - good beer, good vibes, real conversation.
🔹 Beginners and experts alike are welcome
🔹 No slides, no pitch — just real talk

​See you Monday, August 4th!
