Deep dives
Bitcoin's Potential for Growth and Momentum
Bitcoin has surpassed $70,000 and aims to break past $280,000 to reach new all-time highs. With the confirmation of a bull market start and a three-month consolidation period ending, Bitcoin shows strong upward potential. Price action suggests a breakout looming, supported by a positive momentum and a solid base. The heightened activity and momentum indicate a bullish trend ahead.
Impact of Future's Market on Bitcoin
The futures market funding rate for Bitcoin is low, signifying decreased speculative capital and more spot buyers influencing the market. Current levels show reduced influence from leveraged futures positions, leading to more stable buying and selling dynamics. This shift implies less volatility and risk from massive leverage positions, empowering spot buyers in driving Bitcoin's price.
Macro indicators like job cuts accelerating, cooling data on consumption, and declining job openings underscore a broader trend of economic deceleration. With signals pointing towards slowing economic activity, including manufacturing downturns and reduced consumer spending, an impending economic contraction seems imminent. These secular shifts in economic data highlight a shift towards a possible economic slowdown.
In this video, Joe walks through several bitcoin charts to make the case that we're breaking out and moving to and through new all-time highs. He discusses some price action technical analysis, the descending channel bitcoin is trying to break above, the momentum that BTC has built underneath it, and the solid launchpad to take off from with very little froth in the futures market. He concludes with the dismal macro data of late, and how that will impact BTC and other risk throughout the year.
