Ledger Cast Digs Into Possible ETH and BTC Breakups, Thorchain Updates

The latest episode of Ledger Cast, titled "Waiting for Breaks, and Breaking Things," finds hosts Brian Krogsgard and Josh Olszewicz weighing whether Ethereum and Bitcoin could be heading for a technical breakdown. The key word is "potential." The hosts stress that nothing has been confirmed, and the discussion centers on what traders might watch for rather than on a call that has already played out.

That framing matters in a market where chart-based predictions often get treated as certainties. By pitching the conversation around waiting for a break instead of declaring one, the show leans toward patience over prediction. Traders who act before a level actually fails or holds are taking a bet, not following a signal.

The episode also touches on news from Thorchain, the cross-chain liquidity protocol that lets users swap native assets without wrapping them. Thorchain has been a frequent topic in decentralized finance circles, and the hosts use the segment to catch listeners up on where the project stands. The source description does not go into specifics, so listeners will need to tune in for the details.

Rounding out the show is a segment on the so-called "B-word conference," a nod to the industry's big annual gathering. Conferences often serve as a barometer of sentiment, and the hosts use it as a jumping-off point for broader talk about the state of the ecosystem.

As the hosts note at the top of every episode, the content is educational only and should not be read as investment advice. Anyone considering a trade on the back of a podcast discussion should do their own research first.
