Lyn Alden, Founder of Lyn Alden Investment Strategy, best-selling author, and Founder of EgoDeath Capital, discusses why gold, silver, and Bitcoin sold off sharply in early February 2025 after massive gains, explaining that while the long-term debasement trade remains intact, these assets got overextended and the hawkish Fed chair nomination triggered profit-taking.
