Today, we have the pleasure of welcoming Michael Venuto, CIO and Co-Founder of the Tidal Financial Group & Portfolio Manager of the Amplify Transformational Data Sharing ETF [BLOK], back to the show.

In this episode, Michael explores the potential impact of the 2024 Bitcoin halving on the cryptocurrency market, sharing insights on whether it will spark the next bull run or fall short of expectations. Michael also discusses why he thinks bitcoin stands as a hedge against hyperinflation, the potential impact of Coinbase’s custodianship of BlackRock’s spot bitcoin ETF, and the powerful intersection between blockchain and AI. Wrapping up, Micheal addresses the correlation between Bitcoin’s price and crypto miners, explaining why he views them as ‘a leveraged play.’ Michael mentions companies like MicroStrategy, Marathon Digital, and Riot Platforms, highlighting the distinguishing factors that set the top miners apart from the competition.

Before Tidal, Michael was Head of Investments at Global X, providing portfolio optimisation services to institutional clients. Before that, Michael was Senior Vice President at Horizon Kinetics, a New York-based investment adviser. Enjoy!
