  BTC Lost $73K — Is $70K the Next Stop? In my previous BTC breakdown, I said $72.8K–$73.2K was the key level bulls needed to defend. Now that zone has failed. Looking at the latest Bitstamp daily chart, BTC is trading around $71.8K after getting rejected again from the $81K–$82K resistance zone. This confirms the short-term structure has weakened further. BTC is now forming lower highs, losing key support, and showing little rebound strength. This is no longer just a normal pullback inside a strong uptrend. The market is now entering a more serious downside-risk phase. Here are the 3 levels I’m watching now: 1. $71.5K–$72K — Immediate reaction zone BTC is sitting right on this area. If buyers step in, a short-term bounce toward $73K–$74K is possible. 2. $73K–$75K — Reclaim zone This is now the key upside test. Old support has turned into resistance. If BTC cannot reclaim this zone, sellers remain in control. 3. $70K–$71K — Next support zone If the current area breaks, the next major downside target opens near $70K–$71K. A clean break below $70K could trigger a much deeper correction. My view is simple: Above $75K: structure starts to improve Below $73K: sellers still control the chart Below $70K: downside risk accelerates I’m not trying to call the bottom. I’m watching the levels that confirm the next move. Does BTC bounce here — or is the real flush still ahead? Follow me for more real-time BTC chart breakdowns. Not financial advice.

  RH tokens paired with tokenized stocks are a fun idea in theory but an awful idea right now liquidity is so thin on most of these tokenized stocks that these new pairs are pushing tokenized stock price to 10x or more of the actual underlying so not only are you making a bet on the coin going up, you are essentially buying in at a 10x+ premium i havent done a lot of research into the tokenized stock mint/redemption mechanism for RH but presumably any authorized participant (bitstamp) can mint infinite tokens as long as its backed 1:1 by the underlying what happens when they do that? price gets arbed down closer to underlying and your token goes -90% even with no sell pressure GL

  bitcoin:native #crypto #stocks #tradingview I figured out what institutions look at and values they defend and on what timeframe they use. It's in my link I have pinned to my profile for free. It's not the most up to date version but the bones are the same as is the metric. Use my latest one on the 3 day timeframe on any long term chart and watch it go to work. Take Bitcoin for example on Bitstamp. Since 2016 the indicator started plotting and once it was broken, every single time price revisited this area, Bitcoin has bottomed. 2016, 2019, 2020, 2022, and it just tapped it today. If we trade around this level for months or mere days it doesn't matter. Downside has peaked, at least what this script has proven for a decade. And you're bearish?

  Is #Bitcoin oversold now? Let’s use a 6-months chart and see what indicators tell us. A 6-month candlestick view of Bitcoin (BTC/USD) on Bitstamp, sourced from #TradingView It shows a clear downward trend over the period, with the price dropping significantly from highs around $120,000 (visible at the left/start of the chart) to the current level of approximately $67,431 USD. Key Observations from the Chart: •  Starting point (about 6 months ago, roughly early September 2025): BTC peaked near $120,000, marking what appears to be a local or extended all-time high (ATH) zone following a strong bullish run. •  Trend pattern: The price formed a prolonged downtrend with a series of lower highs and lower lows. Candles show: •  Early strong red (bearish) candles as it rolled over from the peak. •  Multiple red-dominant bodies with wicks indicating selling pressure and failed recovery attempts. •  Occasional green candles (brief bounces), but they were short-lived and unable to reclaim prior levels. •  The slope is steep initially, then gradually flattening toward the right, suggesting the decline may be slowing or entering a consolidation phase at lower levels. •  Current price: Marked at $67,431 USD, with the chart highlighting a -40,829 USD drop, equating to -37.71% over the past 6 months. •  Support levels: Recent action hovers around the low $60,000s to high $60,000s (based on the dotted line and recent candles), with some wick extensions lower but quick recoveries. •  Overall structure: This reflects a classic bear market correction after a parabolic run-up, with momentum clearly favoring sellers until very recently. Current Context (as of March 7, 2026): Bitcoin is trading around $67,000–$68,000 USD across major sources (e.g., ~$67,400–$67,900 on TradingView, CoinMarketCap, Yahoo Finance, etc.), with minor intraday fluctuations (down ~1% in the last 24 hours in many reports). This aligns closely with your chart’s labeled price. The 6-month loss of ~37–39% (consistent across sources) confirms the bearish phase shown. BTC hit an ATH near $126,000 in October 2025, so the current level represents a substantial pullback of roughly 45–47% from that peak. Summary Analysis: This chart illustrates a major correction in Bitcoin after its 2025 bull run peak. The relentless downward pressure over 6 months wiped out a large portion of gains, driven likely by factors such as profit-taking, macroeconomic pressures (e.g., interest rates, risk-off sentiment), regulatory news, or post-halving cycle dynamics (though the exact catalysts aren’t visible on the chart alone). At present, BTC appears to be stabilizing in the mid-$60,000s after the steep fall, with reduced volatility in recent candles compared to the earlier sharp drops. This could signal the late stages of the correction or the beginning of a base-building phase before any potential reversal — but confirmation would require sustained higher lows, increased volume on up moves, or breaking above key resistance (e.g., $70,000–$80,000 range). If you’re holding or considering entry, this is a classic “buy the dip” setup in historical BTC cycles, but with high risk given the ongoing bearish structure. Always DYOR and consider broader market conditions! What specific aspect (e.g., technical patterns, potential targets, or news drivers.

  Daily Market Report #756 It’s black Friday. Red sea again, deeper than yesterday. So much news that it is hard to even know where to start. My daily buy on BTC and ETH triggered again at these prices. I said it yesterday, and it keeps being true: You always get a chance to get in deeper. I held my DCA above $70K, stacked everything below, and the market just keeps handing out lower entries. I am not happy the market is bleeding, but I am happy I stayed disciplined for it. Bitcoin weekly RSI dropped to 19, the lowest since the December 2022 bear market bottom. The last time Bitcoin was this oversold on the weekly was the literal bottom of the last bear market. The Zcash story is the one that stings most this morning. ZEC crashed 33% overnight to $398. Zooko disclosed a critical counterfeiting vulnerability in the Orchard pool that could have allowed unlimited undetectable ZEC minting. They shipped an emergency fix, but the damage to confidence is done. A privacy coin is only worth anything if the privacy actually works, and a counterfeiting bug is the worst possible kind of flaw for that thesis. Monero is down 8% to $331 in sympathy, but with no bug of its own. This is exactly why the Monero camp says boring and battle-tested beats clever and new. Gold $4,448. Silver $72.79. Oil $93, still hovering near $100 all week. US oil reserves are at the lowest level since 2004. Iran says there is no tangible progress in peace talks. Israel is continuing Lebanon operations despite the ceasefire. North Korea unveiled a nuclear fuel facility. South Africa’s court ruled Bitcoin is money and capital, a real legal milestone buried under the bloodbath. Bitcoin $63,425, down 1%. Dominance 55.9%. Crypto ETFs saw $4.4B leave over 13 sessions. BTC ETFs saw another $397M out. Mt. Gox moved another 116 BTC to Bitstamp. The Strategy story has gone from a crack to a real wound. Saylor is now sitting on an $11.5B unrealized loss. The STRC preferred share slipped to $0.96, below par, which is exactly the pressure point that tool I mentioned yesterday was built to track. Below $60K, the dividend machine starts forcing the math. Crypto Rover closed a $1M+ BTC short at $61K and is calling a capitulation bottom. The forced sellers and the bottom-callers are screaming at each other, which is what the actual bottom sounds like. Ethereum $1,740, down 3.1%. ETH dominance 9.2%. BitMine filed a 9.5% preferred stock offering to buy more ETH, doubling down into the worst tape, while their existing stack sits deep underwater. The ETH treasury trade is now under real stress and being judged harshly. Solana $67.77, down 4.3%. TVL still bleeding, down 6.1% on the week. SOL holders have had the longest, most punishing stretch of any major. XRP $1.14, down 4.7%. Ripple’s RLUSD went multichain via Wormhole across 40+ ecosystems, and XRP still lost $1.15. Real product, no price relief. BNB $601, down 1.9%. Holding $600 by a thread. Hyperliquid $62.84, down 14.1%. The relative strength that held all month finally broke. Could Hyperliquid also get catched on hacks.  Hayes dumped his entire HYPE position, and the chart followed, down 15%+ alongside NEAR. The Grayscale HYPG staking ETF launched today into a 14% drop. I faded HYPE the entire way up and felt sick about it, and now the day it finally cracks hard is the day Hayes calls the whole top. NEAR Intents topped $20B volume with TVL at an all-time high, even as the token fell 19%. The product kept growing while the price got destroyed. That tells you this is market-wide deleveraging, not a Hyperliquid or NEAR problem. Chainlink $7.86, down 4.4%. Under $8 now. Citi says $8.2T tokenized by 2030, CCIP a key standard, JPMorgan and Citi launching a tokenized deposit network next year, and the token is at $7.86. Sui co-founder announced confidential transfers coming to Sui, shielding amounts while making unauthorized minting impossible by design, which is a direct shot at exactly the flaw that just hit Zcash. The privacy race continues, but the bar just got raised. ADA dropped below $0.16 for the first time since 2020 as Hoskinson announced a break and then said more Cardano projects are about to die. A founder publicly saying his own ecosystem’s projects are dying while the token hits a five-year low is about as bleak as it gets. The casino burns alongside everything else. Tether launched a gold-backed Visa card. Stripe, Visa, and Mastercard are near a joint stablecoin platform. JPMorgan, Citi, and major US banks plan a tokenized deposit network next year. Anthropic is calling for a global pause in AI development, warning models are approaching the ability to self-improve without human intervention. The company building the frontier model is publicly saying the technology is getting close to recursive self-improvement and asking the world to slow down. Whatever you think of the motive, that is not a normal corporate statement. OpenAI and Anthropic also signed an anti-bioweapon letter. The AI labs are warning about existential risk with one hand and filing to IPO at peak euphoria with the other. Three mega AI IPOs, market highs before September, then take profit. When the most hyped private companies on earth rush to sell to the public at the exact moment their own leaders warn about the dangers, you are watching distribution at the top dressed up as a milestone. That is how bottoms are built, even when it feels like the floor is gone. What are you watching going into the weekend?

  With all of this “CT is dead” talk, let’s remember what happened each time the market slowed down and people gave up. Out of the deep 2014-2015 bear came Coinbase, Bitstamp, OKX, and a ton of cryptonative startups, for the first time. Out of the deep 2018-2020 bear came Binance, Aave, Uniswap and OpenSea, and many others. Out of the 2022 bear came Bybit, Solana, Jito, Raydium, Pendle, Pudgy Penguins, and many others. Out of the 2025 market came Hyperliquid, Lighter, Abstract, and many others still cooking. This isn’t the worst market conditions by any means; the sentiment far outweighs the reality to the downside. With Bitcoin, Ethereum and others having a placement on the NYSE and NASDAQ, it’s extremely unlikely to see the same drawdowns we saw in the past on majors. Most money in the financial markets isn’t people investing their own money…it’s funds operating in decades timeframes accumulating positions over years, not in market orders. It is true that the easy times to rotate are over for now. But the real builders have just begun. And the real capital rotation has just begun.

  @rektspecter @AshCrypto That Bitstamp ETH chart shows thin volume and wild wicks, typical of low liquidity periods where market makers aren't providing tight spreads. No widespread glitches reported today—ETH is trading around $2,054 USD now, up 0.9% in 24h but down 19% weekly. Might just be a quiet trading window.

  Bitcoin is showing a dangerous signal! If 80K fails to hold, the short term may see a sharp drop first. From today’s Bitstamp 4H chart, BTC is now hovering around the $80,400–$80,800 range. On the surface, it looks like high-level sideways movement, but the structure on the right side is already very clear: the previous two attempts to break through 82K–82.5K both failed to hold, followed by consecutive pullbacks. This shows one thing: selling pressure above is heavy, and the bulls are starting to lose momentum on the push higher. My current judgment is very direct: in the short term, I’m looking for a pullback first, not chasing longs. Next, focus only on two levels: First, $80,000. This is the most important defense line for the bulls right now. As long as 80K can still hold, Bitcoin still has a chance to continue building strength and attack 81.5K–82K again. Second, $79,500–$78,800. If 80K breaks, the short term will likely continue to wash downward and test this support zone. This is the real area that decides whether the bulls can continue to stay in control. The most dangerous thing right now is not that it has dropped, but that it keeps failing to break higher at a high level. Many people see BTC still above 80K and think it will definitely continue to push toward 85K. But people who truly read the market do not only look at where price is standing. They look at: Is there continuation after the breakout attempt? Is there support on the pullback? Right now, the answer is very clear: selling pressure above 82K is obvious, and 80K is getting closer to being tested again. So my prediction is: short-term bearish, first watch the risk of 80K breaking. If 80K breaks, I will look toward 79.5K, even 78.8K. If 80K holds strongly and BTC reclaims 81.5K with volume, then it will have a chance to challenge 82K–82.5K again. One-sentence summary: now is not the position to blindly chase higher, but to watch whether the 80K defense line can hold. If it holds, there is still a chance to rebound; if it breaks, the short term will likely first wash down to 79.5K–78.8K. What do you think about this move? Do you think Bitcoin is washing and accumulating above 80K, or preparing to drop back to 78K to find support again? Type your direction in the comments: bullish, type 1; bearish, type 2. In my next post, I will directly break down: can 80K be entered near here? Where are the real entry and stop-loss levels? Follow me if you want to see the next key levels. Don’t wait until the market has already moved, only to realize you were one step too late again. （Personal opinion only, not investment advice.）

  Every exchange collapse gets called "the bottom is in." But data says only the last one in the chain ever is, and knowing the difference is the whole edge. A crypto bear isn't one single event. It's a chain of blow-ups that fires over months, and the bottom only prints on the final one, when the last leveraged player dies and there's nothing left to force-sell. The collapse everyone remembers is almost always the first domino & not the last. 2014–15: The Gox cycle → Nov 2013: ATH $1,163 → Feb 7 2014: Mt. Gox halts withdrawals → Feb 28 2014: Mt. Gox files bankruptcy, 850k BTC gone. Everyone said "bottom is in" BTC $550 → Then eleven months of grind → Jan 4 2015: Bitstamp hacked, 19k BTC, ,arked the actual capitulation → Jan 14 2015: bottom with $BTC low at $152 Gox to bottom: another −72%. the famous collapse was the opener. Bitstamp closed it. 2018: The ICO cycle → Dec 2017: ATH $19,783 → Jan 26 2018: Coincheck hacked, $530M the opener → Feb 2018: BitGrail collapses, $170M BTC $8k → then a full year stuck bleeding around $6k → Nov 15 2018: the BCH hash war, ABC vs SV, breaks the $6k floor. the closer → Dec 15 2018: bottom with $BTC low at $3,150 BitGrail to bottom was another −61%, over ten months. 2022: The leverage cycle → Nov 2021: ATH $69,000 → May 9 2022: Terra/LUNA implodes, $45B gone. the opener → June 12: Celsius freezes withdrawals → June 27: 3AC ordered into liquidation → July 5: Voyager bankrupt. July 13: Celsius bankrupt → Nov 8–11: FTX collapses. the closer → Nov 21 2022: bottom with $BTC at $15,480 FTX to bottom was just −26%, in 10 days. This is the one case where the famous name was the last domino, which is exactly why it marked the low. So the tell was never the size of the name. It's where it sits in the chain. Terra was bigger than FTX and it marked the top of the crash, not the bottom. Now 2026 → Oct 2025: ATH $126,210 → Oct 10–11 2025: $19B liquidation cascade off the top, the largest in history. this is the opener → Nov 2025: down to $80k now $64k, off by 49% → July 1 2026: AscendEX closes → July 23: BitMEX announces closure → July 26: BitMart winds down Here's what "bottom is in" wrong here. AscendEX, BitMEX and BitMart aren't blow-ups. They're wind downs. Still solvent, withdrawals open, nobody force selling a single coin. They're closing because the mid-tier exchange model stopped making money, not because they detonated. A business shutting on bad math is not a domino. For until now we've had the opener, the Oct 10 Binance cascade but we haven't had the closer yet. No major leveraged entity has detonated into a forced selling panic the way Gox, BitGrail and FTX did. The signal you're actually waiting for isn't an exchange announcing a shutdown. It's an exchange or a fund detonating. The last domino is waiting to happen soon.

  Bitcoin is stuck at 77.3K. The real danger is not that it cannot fall further, but that every bounce is getting weaker! Looking at the Bitstamp 4H chart, BTC has fallen all the way from the 82.5K high. 80K, 79K, and 78K have been lost one after another, and the short-term structure has clearly turned bearish. Right now, the price is consolidating around 77.3K. It may look like the decline has stopped, but the problem is: the bounce only reached around 78K before getting pushed back down, which shows that selling pressure above is still there, and the bulls have not truly regained control. Next, there are only two key levels to watch: 77K–76.5K: The current defense zone. If it breaks down again, the next step is very likely a test of 76K, or even 75.5K. 78K–78.5K: The threshold for a short-term reversal. Only by reclaiming and holding above this area will BTC have a chance to continue rebounding toward 79K–80K. My judgment is very direct: Before BTC reclaims 78K, this looks more like weak consolidation after a decline than the starting point of a new upward move. The most dangerous market condition is not a sharp drop. It is when every bounce is weaker than the last one. Do you think BTC will reclaim 78K first, or break directly below 76.5K? Follow me. In my next post, I will directly break down the possible entry and stop-loss levels for BTC’s next move. （This is only my personal opinion and does not constitute investment advice.）

  Bitstamp added WLD and JTO this week. Both have been trading on-chain for over two years. A listing tells you a token cleared a compliance desk. It tells you nothing about when the price moved. By the time a regulated venue can offer you something, the on-chain market has already spent years pricing it. Same asset, different spot in the queue. One line buried in the same announcement: unavailable in New York. Access comes with a jurisdiction attached. Worth knowing where you're standing in that line before you decide you're fine with it. Mentioning a token isn't a recommendation. Most launches lose value. High risk. Source: Bitstamp by Robinhood announcement. Save this for the next listing someone calls early.
