💸 Last 7 days of crypto liquidations:

• Total: $593M wiped
• 81% were SHORTS
• $BTC: $236M | $ETH: $143M | $SOL: $11M

Shorts paid the market $480M in one week.

However, Liquidation Levels indicate a $1.8B cluster of SHORT liquidations still sitting at $78–79K.

Translation: $BTC is a magnet right now, and the people shorting it just funded the next leg up.

🗽 Four-star military officer Admiral Samuel Paparo confirms the USA is running a Bitcoin node.

• TVL/marketcap ratio recovery

• Robinhood: $4.9 billion (8x)

🥷 Andre Cronje’s Flying Tulip introduces a TradFi-style circuit breaker to DeFi lending, utilizing a programmatic module to rate-limit outflows. In cases of abnormal withdrawals, such as smart contract exploits, oracle failures, or large position unwinds, the system automatically slows capital outflows and features a fail-open mechanism to ensure funds are not locked during a system failure.

🇺🇸🤔 American Bitcoin has completed the energization of approximately 11,298 additional ASICs, advancing its expansion plans and scaling its mining operations.

Added hashrate: ~3.05 EH/s at ~13.5 J/TH efficiency

This fleet expansion reinforces American Bitcoin's disciplined focus on maximizing Bitcoin accumulation at a structural advantage.

📊 Warsh. Confirmation hearing this week. Likely next Fed Chair.

Why it matters for crypto:

→ Called $BTC "the new gold for under-40s" on record
→ Expected to push crypto-friendly banking rules

Structural bull thesis, cyclical caution.

The best window to accumulate is when the narrative is loud but the metrics say "wait."
