ARK Invest claims that Bitcoin price volatility has fallen to historic lows in 2025, reinforcing the argument that higher risk-adjusted returns will be obtained in the coming years.
BlackRock warns that the surge in construction in the United States could be hindered by a shortage of skilled workers, such as electricians and tradespeople, needed for infrastructure projects and those related to artificial intelligence.
THE MIDTERM ELECTION YEARS TEND TO HIT WALL STREET HARD
Since 1946, the SP500 tends to fall an average of -18% YEAR-ON-YEAR during midterm election years.
WHAT DOES HISTORY SHOW?
In every year with midterm elections, there were significant short-term declines Even in bullish years, significant declines were recorded In 1974, 2002 and 2022, the declines exceeded -30%
But the interesting part is what happens next... -In most cases, these corrections create GREAT BUYING OPPORTUNITIES. -The 12 months following the elections tend to have positive returns and strong rebounds
If 2026 repeats this pattern, there could be sharp declines before the post-election rebound
UNTIL THE INTEREST RATE DECISION, WE HAVE A LOT OF DATA THAT CAN CRASH OR BOOST THE FINANCIAL MARKETS
What are these data points, when are they shared, and why can they impact #Bitcoin ?
On Tuesday the 20th, the Supreme Court could decide on Trump's tariffs 🔸This might be more noise than anything else, as the government has other ways to impose tariffs 🔸JPMorgan states that the SP500 would rise when they are declared illegal and then would fall back when the government announces the other ways to impose tariffs
On Wednesday the 21st, Trump will make statements about the ECONOMY 🔸Considering that he is making decisions to help him win the midterm elections, he might announce something interesting and favorable for $BTC
On Thursday the 22nd, the PCE INFLATION will be shared 🔸Previously the monthly was 0.2% and the annual was 2.8% 🔸This is the FED's FAVORITE inflation data. It is CRUCIAL that it falls to allow for more RATE CUTS and a dovish FED (favoring rate cuts and stimulating the economy)
On Friday the 23rd, Japan will decide the interest rate 🔸It is NOT expected that they will raise the rate, but the focus will be on the statement 🔸If they indicate that they want to continue raising the rate sooner than expected, it could have a negative impact on the financial markets, as a rate increase in Japan could dismantle the yen carry trade and trigger forced sales
On Tuesday the 27th, the Senate Agriculture Committee will have the formal review (markup) session and debate of the MARKET STRUCTURE Law #crypto 🔸It would be key to make progress with a consensus accepted by the most relevant participants in the #cryptocurrency industry 🔸Especially considering that it was delayed due to the scandal of the #Coinbase CEO, who claimed it was better to HAVE NO LAW than to have the current draft
ALL of these issues are of utmost importance and will impact the financial markets. Follow me to find out how the markets react
🚨 SCANDAL AT THE SEC! Maxine Waters just destroyed Paul Atkins in an official letter: since January 2025, the SEC has ARCHIVED OR DISMISSED at least 12 STRONG crypto cases that already had judicial rulings in their favor.
Among them: 🔥 Binance 🔥 Coinbase 🔥 Kraken 🔥 And the most awaited… RIPPLE!
Just after the crypto lobby put TENS OF MILLIONS into Trump's campaign and projects of his family (WLFI, Trump Coin, etc.). Cleared companies like Coinbase, Kraken, Ripple, and Crypto.com donated +1M each just for the inauguration.
The dirtiest case: Justin Sun (Tron) invested +75M in Trump-related things → the SEC freezes his case for 11 months and asks to pause it. Before, they wanted blood.
Clear message from the Trumpist SEC: 💰 If you have cash and political connections → the securities laws don't touch you. 😡 If you are a retail investor → you just get screwed.
This is NOT regulation, it's blatant PAY-TO-PLAY. The SEC no longer protects investors… it protects those who pay the highest price.
Ripple and the XRP community have been fighting against this corrupt agency for years. Now it is crystal clear: it wasn't to "protect investors," it was for control and favors.
IF THIS ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF MONEY BREAKS, THE MARKETS WOULD EXPLODE
The MONEY MARKET FUNDS exceed $7.77 TRILLION: new HISTORICAL RECORD
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR #CRYPTO?
These funds invest in FIXED INCOME, that is, in "safe" assets, such as bonds or certificates of deposit. That mountain of money could be "waiting" to move to higher risk markets (stocks, crypto, commodities), if conditions allow
WHAT COULD TRIGGER THE ROTATION?
🔹Bond purchases by the FED, the Treasury and/or Trump (inject liquidity and lower the yield of fixed income) 🔹Interest rate cuts by the FED (also lowers the yield of fixed income). A new FED chair appointed by Trump could enhance the decline in bond yields 🔹An accelerated growth environment due to AI, tax cuts, and pro-market policies would make stocks and #crypto attractive again
With more than $7.7 TRILLION waiting… a change in conditions could generate a massive INFLUX of capital into financial markets, #Bitcoin and #cryptocurrencies
We present the University Digital Asset Accelerator (UDAX).
@UCBerkeley and the University Blockchain Research Initiative from Ripple launched a pilot program to accelerate the transition from academic innovation to institutional utility of XRP.
The mission of UDAX - UC Berkeley:

The 4 most reliable indicators of the crypto market DO NOT show signs of cycle top
Could it have pulled back? Of course. But are we close to the historical peak? It seems that we are still not
🔹 NUPL (Net unrealized profit/loss) ▫️Shows the level of unrealized profits on the network. ▫️Currently in the "Optimism–Belief" zone, FAR FROM the “Euphoria–Greed” where tops are usually marked.
🔹 Z Score MVRV ▫️Historically, cycle peaks occur when the indicator exceeds the red level (+7–9). ▫️Today it barely marks 1.33. There would still be room for growth before entering the extreme overvaluation zone.
🔹 Pi Cycle Top Indicator ▫️This model predicts tops when moving averages cross (orange and blue line). ▫️There is still no crossing, suggesting that we are not at the peak of the current cycle.
🔹 Global M2 vs BTC ▫️Measures the growth of the global money supply (M2) against the annual variation of BTC. ▫️The greater the monetary expansion, the greater the impetus for $BTC . Today, M2 grows +6% annually
Conclusion: The on-chain/macro fundamentals would indicate that #Bitcoin remains in an expansion phase.
