This is why Bitcoin keeps on Dumping. Saylor's $MSTR crashed to a 2-year low of $97, down -82% from its peak wiping out more than $150 billion in market value. For years, Strategy relied on issuing new shares to buy more Bitcoin But with weak market conditions, that approach is becoming harder to sustain. The company recently sold 32 Bitcoin for the first time in years to help cover dividend payments, a move that challenges its long-standing "never sell" narrative. Strategy still holds a massive 847,363 BTC so this isn't an immediate crisis But the model is now facing its biggest stress test yet. If Bitcoin recovers MSTR could rebound strongly but If the weakness continues, investors may see more dilution, cash usage, and even additional BTC sales. This Fear is pushing Bitcoin lower.

There'll come a day when you'll wake up to a +15% Bitcoin candle. ETH and alts will be up +20%-30%, and most people will rush to short. But the markets will continue to climb, liquidating all shorts back to back. You'll see your portfolio at new highs, and your family will start asking about crypto. You'll wake up to a coin in your portfolio randomly pumping 2x-3x and then doing the same again for a few more times. You'll be back to life-changing gains and will thank yourself for not giving up.

Potential last retest of $60k - $62k, but this looks like a clear local bottom formation across the entire crypto market. Have a good Sunday!

update: already planning next week's batch, should I do miso or tonkotsu broth next time?

Didn't trust the recipe at first but homemade ramen actually hit different tonight. Sometimes you just gotta trust the process. Life is genuinely good rn 🍜

$1 billion in weekly tokenized equities volume on Solana higher imo

If you weren't here, it will feel coordinated. If you were here, you knew all along.

Tokenized equities. Prediction markets. Stablecoins. Collectibles. Treasuries. Payments. Gaming. Perps. Memes. DePIN. RWAs. LSTs. AI. All on Solana.

Anyone else seeing this?

my dog literally body slammed my laptop while i had a trade open. knocked it clean off the desk. came back to check and i was up 12%. buddy might be my new analyst

Trump launching $TRUMP was the most brazenly fraudulent thing I've ever seen a president do. The family should be investigated. That said, the reason crypto is down is not "TRUMP." I read this 10x a day on CT. The truth: He's pushed every policy and PR to pump it up. It's simply the fact that crypto is not giving value anywhere near the prices we set when Trump got elected. We valued Solana at 140 billion dollars while it generated 2.4 bill in revenue. A 70x valuation. Trump could even give citizenship for owning SOL, and that value would not go up with its revenue being down nearly 50% of that. The flip side was candidates who were (and still are) pushing for taxes on unrealized gains. They also wanted to make owning or trading unreported crypto illegal. Look, like or don't like Trump. A) Adopting the Euro globalist strategies of Kamala definitely was not the way to go. Stop being goofy. B) The issue right now is we overvalued this shit and are now so soggy about it we can't even see the opportunity in front of us. THE SILVER LINING: This shit is insanely undervalued. And the entire financial world is now adopting it. Policy wise, business wise, adoption wise – crypto has never been in a better strong spot. The point: Stop throwing a tantrum and trying to find blame outside the blatant tulip mania we all try to profit from in this industry. Instead, look at the fact that tulips have bloomed into full-blown trees and are now being sold at absolutely oversold prices. Stop looking back. Look forward. The future is bright.

When the dust settles, do you think we pump hard or get one more shakeout first?

Crypto taking a breather while everyone watches the US-Iran deal play out 👀 Makes sense traders are locking in gains before the next move. ETF outflows pausing is actually quietly bullish to me. #Bitcoin Sitting on your hands or buying the dip?

Anyone else noticing the timing with these withdrawals, or am I reading too much into this?

Whales quietly pulling 720M XRP off exchanges while most people aren't paying attention. That's not panic selling, that's accumulation. A 50% rally could genuinely be brewing here and I'm not sleeping on it. #XRP Who else is watching this closely?

Crypto markets keep shifting — data never sleeps and neither do the opportunities hidden in the noise. Always fascinating watching narratives evolve in real time. What trend are YOU tracking today? #crypto

Our debt is real. Our fiscal trajectory is unsustainable. Bitcoin is one of the few tools that could help right that wrong for younger Americans.
