In this episode of Crypto Coach Will, Will breaks down DeFi in plain English and explains why leaving coins sitting on an exchange is, in his words, missing the real point of crypto. He walks through the core concepts you need to understand first, wallets, smart contracts, and liquidity pools, then screen shares the exact tools and steps he uses to move from a centralised exchange into DeFi. Will shows how liquidity providers earn fees, why portfolio tracking matters, and gives real examples of low-risk and higher-return strategies, from lending on Aave to diversified yield products and liquidity pools with major coins. He also shares the personal story of how a client introduced him to DeFi, why Imperial Wealth built a course to teach it properly, and how their analyst support helps people get their first plays set up with confidence.

In this episode, Will sits down with Mitch to tackle the question everyone is asking right now are Bitcoin market cycles dead or just evolving. They break down why no one can truly call the top, how halving cycles used to line up perfectly with macro liquidity, and why this cycle is different with ETFs, institutions and regulatory clarity in the mix. Mitch explains the key on chain and technical signals he is watching, how macro factors like rate cuts and balance sheet expansion feed into Bitcoin, and why ETF flows and the so called silent IPO matter more than ever. They wrap with how everyday investors should think about tops, risk management and why having experts in your corner beats trying to time the market on your own.
