In the three months, it has received 118,300 BTC (that’s a little over $3 billion at the current exchange rate 🙂).

No one knows exactly who the wallet this belongs to, but many crypto enthusiasts speculate that the BTC is the property of a company called BlackRock, which is continuing its campaign to launch a spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund in the United States.

Institutions are propping up BTC as whales exit

According to Bloomberg, whales have unloaded half a million BTC in the past year.
The market remains stable only because institutions are aggressively buying.

But how long will it last?

Crypto Mindset✅️

🪙 Bitcoin whales have sold a total of about 500,000 BTC over the past year - the main buyers are exchange-traded funds (ETFs), large companies and asset managers, which have collectively purchased about 900,000 BTC and now control almost 25% of the asset's total turnover.

Capital is shifting to institutionalizers - Bitcoin is becoming less volatile and more predictable.

BlackRock and Michael Saylor's Strategy now hold a combined 1,297,325 bitcoin worth $140.8 BILLION.

That's roughly 6.18% of the total BTC supply

💵The Stablecoin Wars: Who Will Own the Digital Dollar?

As crypto heats up, a new battle is emerging — not for L1s or memecoins, but for control over the next-generation dollar.
From Tether to PayPal to BlackRock, everyone wants a piece of the stablecoin stack.

🔑Key players and drivers:

➡️ Tether ($USDT): Still the king — over $110B in circulation, dominant in CEXs, OTC, and emerging markets
➡️ PayPal ($PYUSD): Now in Venmo, integrating with merchants, fully regulated but deeply centralized
➡️ BlackRock ($BUIDL): Not a classic stablecoin — a tokenized T-bill fund becoming Wall Street’s “digital dollar” ($500M+ AUM)
➡️ US regulation: CLARITY and GENIUS bills are shaping future rules for stablecoins and digital assets
➡️ CBDCs on pause: Private stablecoins keep gaining ground

Each stablecoin is playing its own game:

🟠 $USDT — Dominates in unstable currencies and frontier markets
🟠 $PYUSD — Expanding through PayPal’s Web2 rails and real-world payments
🟠 $BUIDL — Targeting institutions with yield-bearing, tokenized cash

📈Who’s next in line to rise?

🟢$USDC (Circle): Rebounding post-crisis, shifting focus to RWA and banking APIs
🟢 FDUSD: From First Digital Trust, gaining traction fast on Binance
🟢 EURe, XAUt: Gold- or euro-backed alternatives that could shine in times of USD stress
🟢 USDe (Ethena): Yield-bearing, algorithmic newcomer bridging RWA and DeFi

Stablecoins are no longer just “digital dollars” — they’re becoming the core of a new financial stack. Expect this sector to be the main battleground for liquidity and trust in the next cycle.

💡Key concepts for surviving in crypto

➡️ Risk-adjusted vs nominal returns — The best trade isn’t the one with the highest % gain, it’s the one with the best reward for the risk taken. Compare assets to broader market trends and volatility before deciding.

➡️ Momentum — Fading strength is like standing in front of a moving train. Weak assets drop because demand is low. Don’t buy weakness, don’t short strength.

➡️ Altcoin categories — Group alts into tiers: strong performers, average, and consistent underperformers. Know what to buy and what to avoid.

➡️ Types of demand — General demand comes from excess liquidity. Structural demand is when an asset outperforms regardless of market conditions — and that’s the one you want.

In short - don’t just play the game, learn the rules that the winners use.

🕯 Bitcoin and the Business Cycle

This chart overlays Bitcoin’s price with the business cycle oscillator - a macro tool tracking expansions (green) and contractions (red).

Here’s what stands out:

➡️ Every single Bitcoin cycle top (2013, 2017, 2021) aligned exactly with the peak of the red bar section.

➡️ Those peaks marked overheated macro conditions - late-stage liquidity, risk assets maxed, and BTC euphoria.

➡️ Today? We’re still deep in the green expansion phase. Historically, this is where Bitcoin grinds higher while liquidity remains loose.

Bitcoin doesn’t top in the middle of growth phases.
