CS8: Michael Terpin on Bitcoin Cycles, Halvings, and the Road to the Next All-Time High30 jun13 min

<p>In this episode, we cover Michael Terpin&#39;s journey from early internet PR (founding Globe Newswire, working with Motley Fool, Earthlink, and AOL) to becoming one of crypto&#39;s earliest and most recognized figures — a path that earned him the nickname &quot;the godfather of crypto&quot; from CNBC, by his account, for his PR work on Ethereum, Tether, and roughly 400 other early projects.</p><p>Terpin walks through his &quot;Four Seasons of Bitcoin&quot; framework — his own thesis on how fear-and-greed cycles play out predictably between halvings — and shares his (unverified, forward-looking) outlook on where he believes Bitcoin&#39;s cycle lows and highs may land in the years ahead. He also discusses meeting Coinbase&#39;s Brian Armstrong at the first Bitcoin conference in 2013, and his book and fund, both built around the Bitcoin Supercycle thesis.</p><p>Note: price levels and cycle predictions discussed are Terpin&#39;s own analysis and should not be taken as financial advice or confirmed fact.</p><p>This episode is brought to you by <strong>FirstRead</strong> — use code BYNDTHECODE10 for 10% off at first-read.com/signup?ref=BEYOND2026.</p>
