Last week, bitcoin suffered approximately $2 billion in losses in a single day — the largest dollar-denominated loss in its history.

Statistically, only 9% of the worst days, during the most severe periods of bitcoin's long and eventful history, have seen larger losses recorded on the blockchain.

If BTC turns around here, $ETH will take off as the risk rotation begins.

If you hold Bitcoin for up to a month, your chances of making a profit are roughly 50/50.

If you extend the planning horizon to 3 years, the historical probability of incurring losses drops to 0.9%.

But nothing is guaranteed, as this is just history.

Binance founder Changpeng Zhao announced the release of his book, "Freedom of Money." The print version in English and Chinese will be out next week, with its Chinese title being "Binance Life."

The main inflow was concentrated именно on Binance — in BTC and ETH, the exchange has surpassed its closest competitors combined, indicating a concentration of large positions.

Additionally, the exchange has simplified access to its VIP program by lowering entry thresholds in order to attract and retain active market participants.

Has Bitcoin's growth ended? 📉

Bitcoin began to recover after its RSI index reached the oversold zone near the 30% mark. Although the rise so far hasn't been as impressive, it did happen. 📈

Now, as the RSI tests the trend line and the likelihood of the CLARITY Act being passed before the summer holidays decreases, investors are wondering if the rebound has exhausted its potential. 🤔

We don't think so. We expect prices to rise in the future, despite geopolitical uncertainty and the obvious delay in the CLARITY Act passing in the near future. 🚀
