Join Matt and Simon as they discuss the state of the crypto market, focusing on the significant price declines of Bitcoin and altcoins amid macro uncertainty. They analyse the impact of Trump's economic policies, the recent White House Crypto Summit, and more.
Key Takeaways:
- Crypto prices sold off as macro uncertainty continued to trouble investors. Tariffs continue to be a major source of this uncertainty.
- U.S. President Donald Trump continues to appear unphased be the stock market sell-off and the potential for the U.S. economy to enter a recession.
- The White House's focus on crypto regulation is crucial for market stability.
- The recent White House Crypto Summit did not meet the market’s lofty expectations. This was partially because Trump signed an executive order hours beforehand establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve with the government’s existing holdings.
- While the government may accumulate additional BTC without affecting taxpayers, this is unlikely to happen any time soon.
- Investors should be cautious about automatically buying the dip without understanding market conditions.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
