Darius Dale, founder of 42 Macro, said on a Bitcoin Magazine program that a drop in funding liquidity could keep Bitcoin volatile in the near term. If liquidity returns in 2027 — a scenario he said is more likely than not — Bitcoin could resolve higher over the following 12 to 18 months.
Dale also argued that Bitcoin deserves a place in portfolios because it represents an exposure that is different from stocks and gold.

Dale’s Bitcoin view
On Bitcoin, Dale’s main point was that weakening funding liquidity may mean short-term turbulence. His longer-dated setup was different: if liquidity comes back in 2027, Bitcoin could move higher in the 12 to 18 months that follow.
He also said Bitcoin should be treated as a separate allocation in portfolios rather than folded into the same bucket as stocks or gold.
