"not only do we have two very important dates which we'll talk about in a bit but one is obviously the FED meeting fomc Wednesday keep an eye on that there's the PC PC inflation print which is coming out on Friday but also on the 31st of January we've got a very big options expiry on derit bitcoin options expiry about $7.8 billion in total is expiring and what's interesting to note about this of course as well is that you can see what's this max pain point which basically the theory behind this is that option dealers will usually try and hold the spot price down around the max pain point to inflict the most pain on the buyers and hence you know they're trying to keep the price down the spot price down prior to the uh expiry such that once expiry comes and they've settled the options the price will rally according to spot demand Dynamics that's the theory at least but either way there's generally a lot of volatility around these option expiry dates so keep an eye on that date"

"Mantra reckon everything's going to be to they're going to be tokenizing everything"

"there's obviously no chance of a cut if you look at the FED funds rate probabilities but what's important is of course what will be said it's the first fed meeting this year it will lay the foundation for what we could see in coming in the coming year in terms of rate Cuts potentially"

"core pce uh the PC is obviously the fed's preferred inflation measure um last uh it's the previous slot was 2.4% exactly and the forecast is 2.6 so obviously watch where the number comes in versus that um you know so that would be important if it's slightly cooler that's great it seems like like we had the CPI two weeks ago as well as the PPI was slightly cooler so if it keeps with that then potentially looking good on that front more rate Cuts in come in we hope"
