AUSTRALIA ETF LAUNCH 🏦
BREAKING: ASX’s first Bitcoin ETF taps $1.3M volume on first trading day
The first Bitcoin ETF to launch on Australia’s largest stock exchange (ASX) closed its first day of trading with $1.3 million in trade volume.
That’s quite a lot less than the US Bitcoin ETFs…
On the first day of trading, the US Bitcoin ETFs did a combined $4.5 billion in trade volume. (averaging $450 million each)
Keep in mind, the Australian ETF market is significantly smaller than the US market. ($192 billion vs $8.1 trillion)
This is what VanEck’s deputy head of investments and capital markets Jamie Hannah had to say:
“Notwithstanding the Australian market being a lot smaller than the U.S. and most of our flow being retail rather than institutional, there is a possibility that we may follow a similar path.”
Continuing on, Hannah added:
“We have had a significant amount of retail and professional investors express strong interest in getting Bitcoin exposure through ASX.”
In other ETF news…
It’s been a rough week again for the US Bitcoin ETFs.
So far weekly outflows are are at $298.3 million.
(The US stock market was closed this Wednesday)
It’s also the 4th outflow day in a row. 😱
It’s going to take a BIG Thursday and Friday to turn this weekly outflow around.

WHEN TO SELL YOUR BITCOIN 💲
It’s the question everyone has to ask themselves at some point:
When do you sell your Bitcoin?
$100,000? $1 million? $10 million?
According to Michael Saylor:
You do not sell your Bitcoin.
Bitcoin Prague 2024 just wrapped up last week.
The highlight of the event was a keynote by Michael Saylor titled: 21 Rules of Bitcoin.
The entire talk was a masterclass. Although we can’t cover all 21 rules of Bitcoin, some of the best were:
Rule 5: Bitcoin is the only game in the casino that we can all win
Rule 8: Everyone gets Bitcoin at the price they deserve
Rule 10: Tickets to escape the Matrix are priced in Bitcoin
However, 1 rule in particular, stood above the rest:
Rule 20: You do not sell your Bitcoin
Here’s how Saylor broke it down:
“Bitcoin has been going up 50% a year, for the past 4 years. Every time you sold it, you gave up the best performing asset in the world to buy what?”
Put even more simply:
“Diversification is selling the winner to buy the loser.”
Keep in mind, Michael Saylor didn’t just make his money from building a successful company.
He’s also a ridiculously successful investor. Saylor made ~$500 million from early investments in Apple, Amazon, Facebook & Google.
Rule 20 will serve you well.
P.S If you have a spare 45 minutes, check out the full keynote here. (It’s well worth a watch.)
MARKET CYCLE - WHERE ARE WE? 🤔
Today we’ll be taking a look at the MVRV Z-Score.
This metric simply compares the market value to the realized value.
Market Value (Market cap): current price of Bitcoin multiplied by the circulating supply
Realized Value: the value of all coins at the price they were last moved
A market top (red zone) is categorised by market value being significantly higher than the realized value.
A market bottom (green zone) is categorised by market value being significantly lower than the realized value. (also the best time to scoop up cheap Bitcoin)
You can think about this metric as a market cycle gauge.
It visually breaks down where we currently are in the cycle.
Since the cycle bottom in November 2022, MVRV has been rallying. With some dips along the way of course.
Currently it’s at 2.13 (Two weeks ago it was at 2.55)
(MVRV follows the price of Bitcoin, that’s why it’s dipped so much over the last two weeks)
But, MVRV is still in-between the green and red zones.
Meaning we’re roughly in the middle of the cycle.
We’ve still got a long way to go before Bitcoin’s deemed “overvalued” by this metric.
Quick reminder that we’re also about to enter what Raoul Pal has dubbed the “banana zone”…
Expect this metric to drastically rise over the next few months. 🍌
