GM!

Quick recap for the rest of the week:

-Today, February 26, 2025:
NVIDIA Earnings (Q4 FY2025) – After market close

-Tomorrow, February 27, 2025:
Digital Assets Week – Hong Kong
US GDP Growth Rate (Q4, 2nd Estimate)
ECB Monetary Policy Meeting Accounts
US Initial Jobless Claims

-Friday, February 28, 2025:
US PCE Price Index

My thoughts:

After a strong correction in the past few days, the market seems to have found a solid demand zone, and everything looks good for a bounce (dead cat bounce). $BTC could reach 97k-100k, and $ETH might hit 3k. Altcoins could bounce 10%-30%.

The trigger for this could be, apart from technical analysis, NVIDIA’s earnings today, which are expected to report record-breaking numbers (those numbers likely won't show the impact of DeepSeek yet).

Another key event will be the US PCE Price Index on Friday. Powell mentioned that the Fed would be paying close attention to this data to adjust current policies. If we see a bounce before that, a lower high could form around those dates.

I’ll keep you updated.

The last move down doesn't change the main plan, but since prices are now lower, the dead cat bounce should be stronger.


◻️ 10%-20% quick pump (bull trap) – soon
◻️ 20%-50% drop (second shakeout) – after the bull trap
◻️ Altseason (epic) – after the second shakeout

The market is going lower than expected before bouncing, but selling here is a mistake imo.

A strong bounce is still likely.

Today, I’ll share some interesting short-term bullish setups for altcoins.

USDT Delisting & What Comes Next – Important Update

In case you missed it, Kraken is delisting USDT, EURT, PYUSD, UST, and TUSD for users in the European Economic Area (EEA) due to new regulatory guidance. Spot trading will be sell-only from February 27, and by March 31, all remaining balances will be auto-converted to USDC.

Even though this move is limited to Europe for now, I believe regulatory pressure on stablecoins will increase globally throughout 2025. If that happens, USDT could face even more challenges.

Personally, I only consider USDC relatively safe at this point, and I wouldn't hold any other stablecoin this year. Stay informed and make sure you’re prepared.

With this said, have a good weekend!

Markets test your patience before they reward it.

The first part of the short squeeze happened yesterday, but it doesn’t seem over.

Higher, imo.

$ENA update

Solid reaction from the main support zone. It hasn't reached the main target yet, which should be above $0.50.

My plan for $ETH

I've bought some more altcoins here.

This looks like a bear trap.

$SOL

Same same. Expecting $190-200.

White House Crypto Summit – Friday, March 7th

This last drop looks like a bear trap—tariff news was already priced in, yet we saw another flush into support and right before a major event: Trump’s Crypto Summit on Friday, March 7th.

This event is going to be hosted by Trump & David Sacks, with key founders, CEOs, and regulators attending, the focus will be on regulatory clarity, a national crypto strategy, and potential tax incentives.

There's a possibility for 0% capital gains tax on U.S.-issued cryptos. If that happens, U.S.-based projects could benefit massively in the short-term.

That’s why I've added to my portfolio some more altcoins:

$NEAR (U.S.-linked, scalable blockchain. Good TA setup as shared before)

$RENDER (AI + 3D rendering, strong U.S. presence. Also at major support)

$DAG (govt ties, potential sleeper hit. Very strong TA setup. Low exposure since it's a low cap)

And also added some more $ENA, $SOL...

If this plays out, we could see another aggressive short squeeze. Let’s see what happens.

As always, this isn’t financial advice, just my own strategy.

Bear trap confirmed.

We might see some consolidation leading into tomorrow’s summit, before volatility kicks in.
