Episode notes
Sideways Market And Patience Required
- Bitcoin is trading sideways amid holiday doldrums and institutional book-closing, so small 1–2% moves feel like big events.
- Panelists expect patience now and look for larger catalysts before taking new aggressive positions.

- Whales have massively bought recently and short squeezes explain some spikes, but technical resistance remains overhead.
- Expect retests to the low-to-mid $80k range and potential swings into the $70ks before a sustained breakout.
