Post the bloodbath last Friday, many friends have personally reached out for my current view on the market, especially on the tariff situation. So here are my two cents.
1. both parties have political incentives for a cease fire, more specifically:
so basically this guy's entire business model was finding the most complex ways to get the worst bitcoin fills known to man while relentlessly positing AI slop for months and no one asked any questions whether this was retarded or not
All rewards are sent!
Thank you BitFi fam for joining the Sticker Pack Showdown and making it so fun 💚
Now… stay tuned for our $bfUSD Points System and Campaign coming next 👀
top-notch (for the lack of a better word). They often call the greater binance team a sweat shop. It doesnt matter, the quality of the Binance team is unquestionable, especially when compared to others. So thank you @Ember_Aster@cz_binance and take my money for $Aster. Aped.
Looks like someone decided to dump some $BTC to rotate into $ZEC on a Sunday Night. Lolz. On the bright side, real gems often emerge during dumps like this, I am not talking about the well-discussed privacy tokens or the highly controlled schemes like $MYX $XPIN $BDXN $AIA, etc

Out of $RVV long (had to do it with 2 separate sub-accounts coz liquidity is meh), the project is definitely SUS, but it doesnt mean this wasn't a good trade with favorable risk-reward.
Let me take of the @Bitfi_Org CIO hat and put on my yolo degen hat on. In light all the ongoing FUD regarding $RVV, I do NOT see any reason why I shouldn't ape this token. Hear me out, 1. if there was no scam, token pumps 2. if there was a scam, team now has enough
I am exhausted. Why? 👇🏻
Crypto is now fully controlled by a few major players with insider information.
Yesterday, we had a perfect clean breakout.
We traded it perfectly. ✅
I spend 16 hours a day on charts and market data to help you all catch these opportunities, almost no sleep.
Within a few hours, we made around 4–5% profit.
Trump insiders were loading up shorts, which I flagged earlier, but the breakout was confirmed with solid spot volume.
I finally decided to grab dinner.
Suddenly Trump again dropped negative posts, and the entire market crashed again.
The pump got completely wiped out.
This is why risk management matters.
I am learning my community to always stay cautious.
Most of the portfolio is in stablecoins.
I think most of the retail traders are now sitting on 5-40% losses as altcoins get rekt again last weeks.
The whole market is hovering around key support levels.
As mentioned before, CPI is being pushed out even during the government shutdown, something that normally doesn’t happen.
Trump’s influence is everywhere.
A good CPI could trigger a pump; strong CPI readings mean better odds for rate cuts, which usually fuel rallies.
But don't forget macro-political tensions are rising:
- Tariffs: Not going to spend another word on this crap.
- Russia–Ukraine: Russia continues to push into Ukraine. Trump’s stance has shifted—he is now opposing Zelensky, despite supporting him a few weeks ago.
- Europe & Russia: The conflict with Russia also serves as a potential distraction for Europe, drawing attention away from other issues.
- Israel–Gaza: Israel has resumed attacks on Gaza. The U.S. is reportedly on the Israeli ground as well, and it seems the plan is to wipe out and rebuild the area. Peace seems unlikely.
- China–Taiwan: China continues to eye Taiwan, and a recent embassy statement confirms long-term intentions. With China stacking massive amounts of gold, this scenario looks increasingly probable.
Honestly, this cycle is nearly impossible to read.
Between political games, insider moves, and global conflicts, if you’re not plugged into the right information, you’re trading blind.
Have a good day. Ted has left the building.
