In this episode, Demian Schatt is joined by James Check (Checkmate) from Checkonchain to unpack Bitcoin’s recent breakout and the mystery behind the 80,000 BTC that moved for the first time since 2011. They explore the possible explanations behind the Galaxy Digital transfer, what it reveals about long-dormant supply, and the broader implications for key security assumptions in Bitcoin. James breaks down what made this a “quiet all-time high,” with low spot volume, high-stakes on-chain movement, and surging options activity signaling a shift in market structure. The conversation also covers short liquidations, the rise of institutional accumulation, and why confluence across spot, derivatives, and on-chain data remains the clearest way to track Bitcoin’s evolving bull market.🔗 Links & Sources:• https://newsletter.checkonchain.com/p/a-very-quiet-all-time-high?r=4kvnpl&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web▶️ Subscribe and turn on notifications for TBL on YouTube.📚 Subscribe to TBL’s research letter: https://thebitcoinlayer.com/subscribe🎧 Subscribe to The Bitcoin Layer on your favorite podcast platform.📱 Follow TBL on X: https://twitter.com/TheBitcoinLayer📩 Join the official TBL channel on Telegram: https://t.me/thebitcoinlayerofficial🧢 Use code TBLYT10 for 10% off all The Bitcoin Layer Merch at http://TheBitcoinLayer.com/merch⛓️ ₿lock Height 905748⚡ Contribute to The Bitcoin Layer via Lightning Network: [email protected] Bhatia's Twitter: https://twitter.com/timevalueofbtcCreative Director Matthew Ball's Twitter: https://twitter.com/matthewrballResearcher Demian Schatt's Twitter: https://x.com/demianschattLead Statistician Augustine Carrasco Twitter: https://x.com/AugustineCarrB
