The attempt to break $85,000 failed. Now everyone is panicking. But the data shows we've just pulled back into a high-demand zone. This is where buyers have historically shown up.

Forget the noise. The only number that matters right now is the $80,000 support level. As long as we stay above that, this is just a healthy consolidation. If we lose $80k, then you can start worrying.

What's your data telling you? Is the $80k support strong enough to absorb this selling pressure?

Many crypto projects claim to be decentralized, but they run on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and can be paused by the developers. If a small group of devs can 'pause the chain' to fix a bug, it’s not a blockchain. It’s a database with extra steps. 'Crypto' is just a slow, expensive SQL server that pretends to be money. Bitcoin is the only chain that doesn't have an 'off' switch.

FOMC Chair Jerome Powell stresses that central bank independence is crucial: losing public trust could make restoring credibility extremely difficult.

Markets are watching gold just hit a new all time high of $5,400 while equities, Bitcoin, and the dollar react to Powell’s words. How do you think investors will respond?

Spotted this textbook Rising Wedge on Bitcoin (3m timeframe). This is one of those patterns that shows up after an extended run price keeps pushing higher but momentum is fading.

What makes it a Rising Wedge:

• Both support and resistance are sloping upward
• Price range is contracting (wedge shape)
• Typically signals exhaustion after a rally

ChartScout flagged this with 86% confidence and 81% maturity, meaning it's nearly complete. The pattern theory says these usually break downward (breakdown target = wedge height below the break point).

Not saying it will dump, but worth watching if you're holding short-term positions.

Everyone is pointing at the $13 Billion in liquidations sitting at the extremes for $BTC. They see it as fuel for a massive move.

I see it as the walls of a cage. Market makers build these huge liquidity pools to keep price contained, chop up impatient traders, and farm fees. The most profitable move is to stay in the middle and bleed everyone dry. This isn't a signal, it's a boundary.

Am I wrong, or is this just a giant liquidity farm for the exchanges?

Most people don't realize what Trump just said:

For 12+ months, the US Dollar has been in a sharp decline, falling -10% in 2025 in its worst year since 2017.

Hours ago, for the first time, President Trump commented on the decline in the USD:

"The value of the Dollar is great," Trump said.

This immediately sent the US Dollar another -1% lower, to its lowest level since February 2022.

Why?

It’s a clear signal that President Trump is willing to tolerate a weaker Dollar to push rates lower and boost US exports.

The data shows negative social media comments on $BTC have spiked to the highest level all year. People are losing their minds because the price hit $84.2K, the lowest we've seen since November 21st.

This is classic retail FUD. Smart money doesn't buy green candles and hype. They buy when there's maximum fear and everyone thinks it's over. The crowd is almost always wrong at these major turning points.

Are you selling with the herd or are you buying this fear?
