    Earlier this month, Messari hosted the Mainnet virtual summit. At that event, NLW moderated a session called “Macro Investors Sound Off!” featuring BlockTower Capital’s Ari Paul, Blockchain Capital’s Spencer Bogart and Arca’s David Nage. 

    The discussion included:

    • The evolution of the Fed put and how it shapes the markets 
    • How the collision of Bitcoin’s halving and the Fed’s reaction to COVID-19 created a powerful narrative moment
    • Why the Money Printer Go BRR meme was so effective
    • Why the Paul Tudor Jones letter was hugely influential within Family Offices
    • Why these investors expect to see some significant announcements around bitcoin exposure from traditional investors in the months to come
