Recording in March 2020, we breakdown the fall of the stock market, the printing of lots of fed money, interest rates hovering at zero, and what this actually means for Bitcoin. Even though Bitcoin fell with the stocks, what will the rise of this cryptocurrency be?

Erin Gregor: All right welcome to another episode of clarifying crypto. I'm Erin Gregor here with my co-host, Gary Leland, Gary. Welcome.

Gary Leland: All right. Howdy. Howdy. Glad to be back. Glad to be here, talking more, lots of stuff happening.

The stimulus package has just been announced and approved.  Things went up a bit today, but I still don't trust anything. Bitcoin is up. We just hit 6,700 as we're recording this. So that's good to see. but Gary, tell me, tell me your thoughts through all this. Cause I know a lot of people are really excited to get their checks.
