TIME MACHINE

A month ago, Bitcoin had a "V-shaped" recovery which opened a path toward $76K.

A few weeks ago, Arizona lawmakers cited rapid growth of the Spot Bitcoin ETFs as a reason to add them to retirement portfolios(3) and Bitcoin hit yet another high, tapping $73.8K and beware of Bitcoin's 'rising wedge,' says Josh Olszewicz which tends to be bearish but if a pull back does happen it will prob be short lived.

A couple weeks, BlackRock launched a digital fund with $100 million on Ethereum, hinting at Real-World Assets (RWA) focus(3) and J-Pow decided to leave rates unchanged and that apparently sparked a rally which has since cooled off this morning.

Last week, KuCoin got charged for "multibillion-dollar criminal conspiracy"(8) and the overwhelming demand for Bitcoin spot ETFs over the past two months is likely to continue for many years, predicts Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan; Inflows could eclipse $1T.(6) 

Yesterday, Bitcoin dropped to $64.5K and data reveals strong confidence and potential buying opportunities amid Bitcoin dip as the 2024 halving could usher in a new era for Bitcoin.
