Fed Chair Kevin Warsh sounded hawkish during his Jackson Hole speech September rate hikes are still on the table 50/50 chance right now ➡️ Not good for markets so crypto cooled down a bit 🔴 If we get rate hikes on September 15 that’s most likely when we’ll drop again for $BTC before finally completing the bear market 🐻

Volatility is back Over $5B in leveraged crypto positions were liquidated in the past 72 hours after we saw a big red candle on $BTC 🔴 Chances are the bull market isn’t here yet and we’ll have more ups and downs in the coming months 📈📉 But one thing that should interest you is that it’s becoming more likely that we’ve already hit the bottom of the cycle ➡️ It’s of course not guaranteed and I wouldn’t be surprised to see Bitcoin back in the low $60Ks in September/October But we’re finally seeing some strength in the market after almost a year of bear market Make sure to stay patient and don’t rush Now is not the time to play with leverage and get liquidated right before we finally get some fun again 👀

• $4B in shorts liquidated in 2 days 🔴 • $BTC surged from $64.1K to $79K+ • U.S. Treasury doubled long-term debt buybacks → yields dropped, dollar weakened 📉 • White House crypto meeting → CLARITY Act, potential U.S. Bitcoin purchases & Hyperliquid regulation 📈 • $3B shorts liquidated Thursday alone = biggest daily liquidation since records began in 2021 📊 • U.S. Bitcoin ETFs: +$517M Wednesday, +$606M Thursday, +$1.61B this week = best week since October 💰 • Spot demand was already turning positive before the pump Important: A huge part of the move was fueled by forced short liquidations, not just new buyers. The short squeeze fuel is mostly gone. Now we need real buyers 👀

We just experienced the LARGEST short liquidation in crypto history Short sellers lost $3.4 billion in a single day 🔴 🔸 $BTC surged above $72,000 for the first time since June 🔹 All top cryptos are up 10–15% in the last 24 hours It’s honestly too early to say if we’re really back or not ➡️ We’ve seen moves like this in the past followed by more downside: • April 2018: +17% rally, then -60% into the bottom • February 2022: +10.5% rally, then -63% into the bottom • June to July 2022: +40% rally, then -37% into the bottom No need to rush. September/October might be challenging but we’re definitely on the right path Crypto IS FAR FROM DEAD If you’re still here, congrats. Get ready for the next crazy months 🚀

🚨 Crypto is down ahead of tomorrow’s FOMC decision Markets are pricing in about a 1 in 3 chance of a rate hike, which is honestly is huge (Rate cuts are bullish for assets and investments while rate hikes tend to be bearish) Right now, the market is in wait-and-see mode On Thursday we’ll also get the PCE inflation report which will influence expectations for future Fed decisions. ➡️ If we get a rate hike, I think $BTC revisits new lows below $58k Big week ahead.
