Not long ago, I wrote an article about how BTC was showing signs of a bubble. And you know what struck me? How many people have no idea what a “bubble” is in the financial sense! It’s like when you say “bubble,” you immediately picture soap bubbles from your childhood, cheerfully rising in the sun… And then — bam! — and it bursts. That’s pretty much how it is with crypto bubbles, the only difference is that here the bursting of bubbles affects wallets and, unfortunately, is far from childish.

MicroStrategy has once again made headlines in its typical style, attracting attention with bold Bitcoin purchases that resemble financial acrobatics more than a sound investment strategy. According to reports, the company recently acquired 5,262 BTC for approximately $561 million, paying an average of $106,662 for each Bitcoin—a record price for MicroStrategy. But what lies beneath this?

So, ladies and gentlemen, Bitcoin continues its thrilling journey into the uncharted depths of human greed. This time it is trading in the area of 96 thousand (yes, yes, not millions 🤌, but just thousands 🥲), trying to stay above the support zone. Of course, such movements are no longer news for the crypto market, but there are nuances that make one think...

How many times have we heard that enticing 'Buy now, or it will be too late tomorrow!'? The main argument of all Bitcoin apologists is the price increase itself. They say, look how it has soared! And that's it. There are no more arguments. What is behind this amazing 'innovative' asset that was supposedly supposed to change the world? Right: nothing but pretty promises and hope for a new, even more naive buyer.

And finally, it happened: the first daily candle closed with a full body above the coveted 100K mark. But, as they say, the joy was short-lived. Instead of a triumphant rally towards 110K, the market froze in anxious anticipation: what if we go below again?
At the moment, the situation looks like a classic retest from top to bottom. Everyone who was shouting about a ‘breakout’ is starting to get nervous: will buyers have enough strength to defend the new threshold? Let’s see what happens if they don’t.

Well, friends, here is another piece of news from the category of 'warning bells' for the crypto market. While you believe in the endless growth of Ethereum and Bitcoin, major players like Meitu are not wasting time. This Chinese company, known for its investments in crypto, decided that it was time to 'hit the brakes' and cash out a whopping 31,000 Ethereum and 940 Bitcoin. This happiness brought them no less than $180 million. And what are they doing with this capital? 80% of the amount is for dividends. Apparently, shareholders urgently needed new yachts.

So, friends, another crypto news that might make an unprepared investor's eye twitch. The ETF (exchange-traded fund) of Grayscale seems to have decided to play a riddle by transferring 700,004 BTC (just over 65 million dollars) to an unknown address. 'What does this mean? Who is behind this? Why?' — these are probably the questions the crypto community is asking itself right now.

Ah, here is our favorite Robert Kiyosaki, the author of the legendary bestseller 'Rich Dad Poor Dad,' back with another forecast. This time he proclaims that Bitcoin could crash to $60,000. Yes, you heard it right — the same Kiyosaki who not long ago 'predicted' Bitcoin at $100,000 is now preparing for a decline.

Well, crypto optimists, it seems it's time to refresh your faith in HODL. According to CryptoQuant, long-term holders of Bitcoin have disposed of 728 thousand BTC in the last 30 days. Yes, you heard that right - this is the largest wave of sales since April. And if you still think the market is in a state of 'mature growth', it might be time to reconsider your beliefs.

So, crypto enthusiasts, did you dream of 100K? Here’s the reality! The market has once again decided to demonstrate who is in charge. Instead of a fairy-tale rise, we see a typical scenario. As soon as most believed in a new historical maximum, the price went down. Who would have thought, right?

Let's be honest. We've all been brainwashed about this magical price range — 100K+, which is about to become a reality. "There will be a new life there!" — optimists think, but in reality, it's nothing more than bait for the gullible. If you're one of those dreaming of this level as a door to a bright future, congratulations: you're already being prepared for the role of a participant in the "Greater Fool" theory.

The market cycle is a natural process that financial markets go through, whether it's the stock market, cryptocurrencies, or the real estate market. It represents recurring phases that show how asset prices change over time based on investor sentiment, economic conditions, and supply and demand.

And, again, talks about $100,000 for BTC. I’ve heard this somewhere before... Oh yes, in 2017, 2021, and a couple of times in between. But let’s look at the current situation through the lens of healthy skepticism.
So, the price, as the seasoned "analysts" write, "is squeezing into the resistance zone." A great metaphor, as if BTC is a boxer in the corner of the ring, about to deliver a crushing uppercut. But the truth is, we are likely witnessing yet another show: a worn-out script called "Hype the crowd, then leave them in the cold."

Ladies and gentlemen, fasten your seatbelts, because a new twist in the Bitcoin drama is about to begin, which has long become something like a favorite series for all crypto fans. The main character is the company MicroStrategy, or rather its charismatic director Michael Saylor, who has long been famous for his loud statements and passion for Bitcoins. And here we go again: the company dumps a ton of money into buying crypto, and people are puzzled — why are they doing this, especially with such pomp? Let's figure out what is happening here.

After a long period of crypto oblivion, XRP is back on the hype wave 🌊! The other day, the coin broke through the $1 mark and even managed to reach $1.27, which pleasantly surprised the market old-timers. But let's not forget: the last time we saw such numbers was back in 2021. Is this the success that investors dreamed of? 🤔

I recently came across the news that Goldman Sachs had increased its investment in a Bitcoin ETF to $710 million. And it made me remember what kind of company we have in front of us, what methods it uses, and why its actions are so often suspicious.
History of Hypocrisy: From "Tool for Speculators" to Millions in Cryptocurrency

Bitcoin is still treading water, but boredom in the market is often the calm before the storm, and we have some interesting leads here that can't be ignored.
The weekend brought us the usual sideways movement, where the price fluctuates around 90K. So what?
The CME closed at 92.2K, hinting at a possible gap. But so what? A much more ominous picture emerges when you look at the gap between 81.2K and 77K. Yes, it's there. And no, no one knows if it will close.

The Bitcoin market continues to demonstrate alarming stability. On the surface, it is flat around $90,000, but there is danger hidden under this calm. The overheated asset, without a full correction, seems to have frozen before the inevitable rollback.
🔥 Greed Market: Overheating to the Max

The cryptocurrency market is always a swing. And when it comes to the main asset, Bitcoin, these are real air loops at a height of thousands of meters. After an impressive upward surge, which ended with an update of the historical maximum just above 93K, BTC decided to cool down a bit. And this is good news! After all, any inflated bubble sooner or later risks bursting, and a pause in the race is an opportunity for a healthy correction.

So, friends, we are back here again. The market is at a peak of euphoria, everyone is rejoicing, optimism is overflowing, and it seems like this will last forever. Every news is a reason for joy, every correction is just a chance to "buy on the dip." But here’s what’s important to understand: even if the market is still filled with positive sentiment, the most experienced players are already starting to gradually take profits. They understand that times are changeable, and they know: euphoria is usually followed by its opposite.
