Bitcoin (#BTC) is gradually climbing, showing a clear shift in market structure. As anticipated, the price is now working to hold and sustain above this key level.
Momentum looks solid so far, with a near-term target in the $71,250–$71,450 zone. A short term rally in altcoins is also expected to follow.

JUST IN: 🇺🇲The U.S. has mobilized its most significant military presence in the Middle East since the 2003 Iraq invasion. Bloomberg reports.
Military action could unfold after market close today or over the weekend, which was often the pattern during the Trump presidency.
Be cautious. It may be wiser not to carry large open positions into the weekend.

REASONS WHY EVERYONE IS DEPRESSED IN CRYPTO 🥹
A lot of people are complaining really hard, and are even depressed when it comes to crypto. Here, I highlighted some of the reasons the crypto market is making some people depressed.
- Trading volumes for altcoins have plummeted by 50%.
- Assets under management in spot Bitcoin ETFs have decreased by $60 billion.
- Half of the entire Bitcoin supply is currently held at a loss.
- Bitcoin has seen 11 straight days of intense selling pressure.
- Open interest in crypto futures has crashed by $140 billion, a 60% drop from its high.
- Bitcoin investors have locked in $2.3 billion in realized losses over the past week.
- Growth in stablecoin market capitalization has flatlined, indicating a reduction in available cash on the sidelines.
- Bitcoin miners are depleting their reserves amid rising operational costs.
- Funding rates on key exchanges have stayed in negative territory.
- This marks only the second instance in Bitcoin's history of five consecutive months with negative returns.
- Bitcoin has lingered in a capitulation phase (Z-score below -3) for five months.
- The Fear & Greed Index has remained in "Extreme Fear" territory (below 20) for 20 days, the second-longest such period on record.
- Even long-term holders are starting to sell off their positions at a loss.
- Net inflows of Bitcoin to exchanges are increasing, suggesting more selling activity.
- On-chain metrics like active addresses and transaction counts are on a downward trajectory.
- Investment in crypto startups via venture capital has dropped sharply compared to last year.
BUT REMEMBER - THIS TOO SHALL PASS
Crypto winters have always been brutal... and they've always ended with stronger recoveries. Extreme fear has historically been one of the best contrarian buy signals. Protect your mental health: step away from charts if needed, avoid leverage right now, zoom out to the long term, and only risk what you can afford to hold through the storm.

When Bitcoin dropped toward $70,000, trading jumped but it was a panic reaction, not people buying with confidence ⚠️.
The excitement disappeared quickly, showing that while people were watching, they weren’t ready to keep buying at those prices 📊.
Right now, there aren't enough buyers to soak up the amount of Bitcoin being sold 🔴.
The activity we see is just short-term traders moving money around or people getting forced out of their positions, not long term investors moving in 💰.
Because there isn't steady buying support, the price is still "shaky" and could easily drop again 📉. Without consistent trading volume, the market can't find its footing 📈⏸️.

🚨 WHY YOUR CRYPTO HOLDINGS ARE DUMPING
It's not because of quantum computing fears.
It's not due to the Federal Reserve's tough stance.
The primary culprit is a severe liquidity shortage.
Right now, the US Treasury is pulling huge amounts of cash from the system to replenish its Treasury General Account (TGA).
Over the last month alone, they've withdrawn nearly $150 billion from circulation.
Combine that with an economy that's already losing steam, and you've got the ideal conditions for high risk assets like crypto to struggle.
This sell off is not isolated to cryptocurrencies either major tech stocks in the "Magnificent Seven" have all declined year to date in 2026, with some dropping as much as 12-15%.
SO, WILL THE DUMPING PERSIST?
The TGA has reached $922 billion, which has been its upper limit since the end of the 2020 pandemic.
Barring another global crisis like a pandemic or World War III, the balance is likely to decrease soon, pumping liquidity back into the markets.
Additionally, around $150 billion in tax refunds are expected to flow in by March, providing fresh capital that could spark a short term recovery rally.

#BTC/USDT Technical Outlook
BTC is currently testing the upper boundary of a descending channel. With the 50MA adding extra resistance, the bears are still in control.
- Bullish Case: A sustained break above the channel signals a market rally.
- Bearish Case: Rejection here keeps the consolidation alive within the channel.

🚨 GLOBAL UNCERTAINTY AT RECORD LEVELS – HIGHER THAN EVER BEFORE 🚨
The World Uncertainty Index (WUI) has spiked to its all-time high of 106,862 (based on Q3 2025 and early 2026 data from FRED and official trackers), eclipsing peaks from all previous major global crises.
This surge outstrips historical highs by:
• 9/11 attacks (Q3 2001 peak ~25,156): +325%
• Iraq War (Q2 2003 peak ~34,455): +210%
• COVID-19 pandemic (Q2 2020 peak ~50,000): +114%
Primarily driven by intensified #U.S. tariff policies and trade wars under the Trump administration, which are disrupting global supply chains, escalating geopolitical frictions, and eroding confidence in international trade.
We're venturing into completely uncharted economic waters with no historical precedent for this scale of uncertainty.
Economists from institutions like the IMF, World Bank, and private analyses (e.g., Goldman Sachs, Bloomberg) highlight sustained high readings, potentially stifling investment, growth, and market stability for the foreseeable future.
Buckle up – this could redefine global economics. ⚠️

$BTC Price Prediction: Upcoming Dump and Recovery
Urgent Update:
Bitcoin ($BTC) appears poised for a major correction, potentially falling to the $55,000–$65,000 range.
Here's my outlook for the next six months:

- Steady decline toward $55,000–$65,000
- A two-week period of market accumulation
- Shift back to upward momentum for Bitcoin
- Eventual target of $140,000 per $BTC
Mark this down and revisit it in August...
The upcoming altcoin season (#Altseason) is set to be legendary, offering what might be your final opportunity to escape financial hardship.
Right now, prioritize altcoins showing resilience those with reliable support levels and solid rebound potential.
The window is closing fast.
