Why This Cycle Feels Broken, Memecoins & Macro | Ben Cowen

Ben Cowen, founder of Into the Cryptoverse, breaks down why the current crypto cycle feels different from past ones.

We explore the Advanced Decline Index and how it reveals why Bitcoin is thriving while most altcoins struggle. Ben also discusses the impact of quantitative tightening, the ETH/BTC ratio, and why meme coin speculation is distorting market dynamics.

A must-listen for anyone navigating crypto’s shifting landscape and seeking deeper market insights!
