Ledger Cast Calls the Crypto Crash "The Other Bitcoin Halvening"
Markets·October 10, 2026
The hosts of the Ledger Cast podcast, Brian Krogsgard and Josh Olszewicz, devoted their latest episode to a sharp sell-off that dragged bitcoin and the rest of the crypto market down together. They call it "the other bitcoin halvening," a nod to the protocol's scheduled halving of mining rewards, but the show notes do not include price levels, dates, or percentage losses, so readers looking for exact figures will need to check market data elsewhere.
The conversation covers what the crash means for the market, where it might head next, and how the hosts see the pandemic weighing on the broader financial backdrop. They also return to the idea of "strong hands," the holders who sit through deep drawdowns rather than selling into them.
The episode goes beyond crypto. The hosts compare the American COVID-19 trajectory with Italy's, point to pressure on Seattle businesses as a possible template for the rest of the country, and mention a post they wrote about what they call the Rubber Band Recession. Those points are offered as context for their market view, not as crypto data.
The show describes itself as educational and not as investment advice. Because this is a discussion between two hosts rather than a reported news story, their views should be read as opinion. Anyone weighing a position should do their own research first.
