๐ Bitcoin is far from a bear market!
According to CryptoQuantโs CEO, the โbubbleโ phase hasnโt even started. On-chain data shows $7 billion in weekly capital flowing into BTCโclearly, weโre in a bull market. ๐
Whale accumulation, once market-shaking news, is now routine chatter. The narrative has shifted, with retail investors sidelined while whales dominate the scene. ๐ง
Even if corrections happen, a drop over 30% is unlikely, and any dip would likely be followed by a strong recovery. ๐
The cyclical top? Not here yet. For now, Bitcoinโs peak is still a distant horizon. ๐

๐ธ Brazilโs Stablecoin Ban: More Decentralization Ahead?
Brazilโs central bank wants to ban stablecoin transfers to self-custodial wallets. The reason? Protect their "melting fiat ice cubes." ๐ง๐ธ
But crypto execs are unfazed: enforcing a ban on P2P transactions and decentralized platforms is like herding cats. ๐ฑ
๐ As history shows (hello, China and Nigeria), bans just push users toward decentralized platforms. So, expect Brazilians to dive deeper into P2P and Layer-2 solutions like Taproot Assets and Liquid USDT.
When you ban the bridge, crypto finds a boat. ๐ค
