Happy Saturday Folks! Monday is my birthday so I fully expect Bitcoin to bring me a present :) Last week we saw Bitcoin rise by nearly $1K but this week it's lost just a tad above a hundred; not bad, not bad at all.
The best performing asset in the past 7 days remains $DOGE - up 8.82%; ranked #8 on Coinmarketcap.com. This is all due to Elon Musk replacing the blue bird with the DOGE logo. Fear and Greed Index was at 61 and today it's 61 so just as the price has been flat so is the overall sentiment. Most covered news this week was all about the Ethereum Upgrade Shapella. Podcast of the Week is Bitcoin Fundamentals as Preston talked with Pierre Rochard about Bitcoin Mining. Let's review the week shall we?
Monday the price of Bitcoin closed at $27,790.22 and the fear and greed index was 63. The most covered news of the day was Dogecoin Surges More Than 30% After Token's Symbol Replaces Blue Bird as Twitter Logo.(8)

Bottom line: As I type Bitcoin is trading at $28,012.71 and for the week (M-F) Bitcoin lost $135.64. It appears the price is stair stepping it's way higher with smaller pull backs and larger pops; but it's been trading sideways for the past week. So, keep buying the dip, be smart, stay safe, stack sats, and HODL as "Matty Sats" would say!
