$BTC holding above May highs — that's the anchor. Bears pushing hard for a breakdown, but they haven't won yet.
Staying patient here. The plan hasn't changed: buy dips. If we drop deeper, that's fine — just another chance to add at better levels.
Keep it simple. Time in the market beats timing the market. This is a long-term hold with a clear process: wait for weakness, add on value, and let cycles do the work.
Macro cycle still intact. May highs are support now. If we hold, consolidation builds the next leg. If we break down, we reload lower. Either way, the thesis stays the same.
Big update for Dutch crypto holders: the unrealized gains tax proposal is dead. Instead, they're rolling out a 36% tax on realized gains starting 2028.
Still heavy, but miles better than getting taxed annually on paper profits you haven't even cashed out. This shift rewards exactly what we preach: patience and long-term holding.
If you're in the Netherlands, this changes the game. Your best move? Hold through cycles. Don't trade in and out. Let your positions compound and only realize when it truly makes sense — ideally after major bull runs or when you need the capital.
2028 gives you time to restructure, plan exits smartly, and build around the new rules. The long-term investor wins again. Time in the market beats timing the market, especially when the tax code finally agrees.
Stay disciplined. Stay patient. This is a win for holders.
$BTC showing textbook price action right now. We swept lows, recovered, built liquidity, then broke out. Classic cycle behavior.
After the push to $87K, we're pulling back toward the $81K–$82K breakout zone. This is healthy. Breakouts need retests.
What matters now: does the level hold?
If $81K–$82K acts as support, that's your confirmation the structure is intact. If it breaks, we reassess. But this pullback is normal — it's how bull moves build.
Patience here. Let the retest play out. Don't chase, don't panic. Watch the hold, then decide.
Time in the market beats timing the market. This is where discipline pays.
$BTC traders swung from $8B underwater to $16B in unrealized profit in just weeks — the biggest green spike we've seen this cycle.
And $BTC is still 30%+ below the all-time high.
Pain turned into euphoria fast. That's classic crypto.
The real question now: do these profits keep stacking, or do holders start taking chips off the table?
From a long-term holder's view, this is where discipline matters. Short-term euphoria can flip just as fast as it arrived. If you're holding through cycles, this is noise — not a signal to trade in and out.
Watch for profit-taking volume and on-chain flows. If smart money starts rotating or trimming, we'll see it in the data. Until then, patience wins.
Stay macro-focused. We're still early in the bigger picture.
Bitget reopened withdrawals after last week's hack, and we're watching the first real stress test unfold in real time.
$BTC withdrawals went live today. Early numbers: 3,000+ transactions moved ~2,700 $BTC out, with 2,432 $BTC drawn from their 5,500 $BTC Protection Fund. Users are pulling funds, though Bitget claims it's still under their internal projections.
$ETH withdrawals open next, then USDT after that.
The next few days matter. This is the moment where trust either holds or breaks. Watch how much flows out, how fast, and whether the Protection Fund can absorb the demand without forcing liquidations or causing broader contagion.
From a long-term holder perspective: if you're on Bitget, prioritize moving funds to cold storage or a more battle-tested exchange. Exchange risk is real, and no Protection Fund replaces self-custody. If you're not affected, this is a reminder to audit where your holdings sit and whether counterparty risk is worth the convenience.
Stay patient, stay safe, and keep your keys under your control.
We've got a falling wedge pattern pushing into the previous local highs, plus we just swept the local lows — classic technical setup for a breakout.
Looking for a move into the 100s from here. The structure is solid, momentum is building, and the risk-reward is clear.
Full disclosure: I'm holding $HYPE. This is a patience play — let the chart work, don't force it. If you're in, stay disciplined. If you're watching, this is the zone to pay attention to.
Not financial advice, just sharing what I'm seeing.
First wave of long liquidations is hitting right now.
$81.5K–$82.7K is the key zone where leveraged longs get flushed out.
If $BTC loses $81.5K, we could sweep down to $80K pretty fast — that's how liquidation cascades work.
But if it holds here, this flush might be exactly the reset the market needs before the next leg up.
For long-term holders: this is noise. These shakeouts happen every cycle. If your thesis is intact and you're not overleveraged, these dips are where you add, not panic.
Patience wins. Time in the market beats timing the market.
$BTC just broke weekly market structure — that's a solid step forward. But we're not out of the woods yet.
There's one massive resistance zone sitting right above us. Once we clear that level, the runway to $150,000 and beyond opens up clean.
Until we break through? This is still dip-buying season. Add on weakness, stay patient, and let the structure do the work. No rush — time in the market wins.
$BTC built a major base without the usual capitulation signal. The old bottom playbook failed — no panic flush, no classic despair phase.
This tells us something about market structure: holders stayed strong, weak hands got shaken out earlier, and institutional demand kept a floor under price. When MVRV holds above 1, it means average cost basis never went underwater. That's unusual strength.
The bottom is likely in. We're in accumulation, not distribution. Patient holding wins here — no need to chase perfect entries. Time in beats timing when the macro setup supports a new leg up.
$BTC just confirmed a weekly market structure break — the bull cycle is kicking in earlier than anticipated.
Deployed a lump sum this morning, now sitting at roughly 70% accumulated. The rest stays ready for any dips that come our way. Lower entries would be ideal, but we'll work with what the market gives us.
This is how you play the long game: front-load when structure confirms, keep dry powder for weakness, and stay patient. Time in beats timing.
$BTC started the week retesting May highs while sweeping local lows — classic shakeout behavior.
Wouldn't be surprised if we see the old bull market pattern play out here: Red Monday, green week.
This is how bull cycles work. Dips get bought. Patience pays. If you're holding, this is noise. If you're adding, watch for confirmation above the May level.
Stay disciplined. Time in the market beats timing the market.
This is what patience looks like. We've been holding through the noise, waiting for the macro setup to align with the technicals. Now we've got confirmation on the higher timeframe.
For long-term holders: this is your signal to stay the course. Don't get shaken out by short-term volatility. The cycle is turning, and time in the market beats timing the market every time.
If you're sitting on cash and waiting for a better entry, watch for pullbacks to key support zones. Add on weakness, not on FOMO pumps.
This is where the real gains are built — not by trading every swing, but by recognizing the bigger picture and holding through the cycle.
Stay disciplined. Stay patient. The bull market rewards those who understand the process.
Double bottom forming on the hourly chart for ethereum:0xddb3422497e61e13543bea06989c0789117555c5.
Even a retest of the recent high this week would deliver roughly 75% from current price. That's a compelling risk-reward setup.
Patience and position sizing matter here. If the macro backdrop supports alts and this base holds, the move could unfold quickly. Watch for volume confirmation on the breakout.
If you missed setups this week, keep $COTI on watch. I've held and traded this one for years — October could bring a real catalyst.
📅 Oct 4: COTI Foundation expected to drop a roadmap expansion around token utility and spending. That's the kind of narrative shift that moves price if it lands.
🎯 Looking for 20–30% if the catalyst delivers and market structure cooperates.
This fits the playbook: patient hold, wait for macro setup, add on value inflection. Not chasing — just staying ready.
Global liquidity just hit a new all-time high at $103.6T.
$BTC has historically tracked global money supply closely, but right now it's lagging behind this liquidity expansion.
If liquidity keeps climbing and ETF demand holds strong, $BTC has serious room to catch up. This is the macro setup we watch — when money supply expands and bitcoin hasn't moved yet, that's the signal.
Patience here. Let the liquidity do the work. Hold through the lag, add on weakness if you can. The cycle rewards those who understand the macro first and let price follow.
