GM, another Big Week commences.
Unlike James Wynn, who closed his $1.25B long position based on a normie YouTube video FUD, we predicted a typical Trump style pivot on EU tariffs last Friday, which would send BTC higher again. It only took him two days, and in his true “shitcoin president” nature, he saved the weekly and put the EU tariffs on hold until July 9th.
Everything is setting up for a banana zone-style breakout as long as BTC holds roughly above $107k. Wicks below are acceptable—we’ll likely see them at some point this week, possibly triggered by macro headlines like Wednesday’s Fed Minutes, Thursday’s US GDP data, or Friday’s PCE inflation numbers.
What’s also driving crypto higher is a wave of positive liquidity movements outside the US: Japan just announced a 900B yen emergency package, while China continues pumping billions into markets via reverse repos.
Importantly, even though the more likely move from here is higher, this rally is getting into an overheated territory, with the Fear & Greed index now ticking firmly into greed. As always, we should remember these indicators can stay overheated for much longer.
Perhaps the easiest way to gauge when this rally comes to a halt is USDT dominance. This one failed to bounce and is likely heading to around 4%. This is where we should pay attention. If a new floor is created around 4%, or we see a fakeout under and then a reclaim, it will likely mark our mid-term top (not a bull run top though, in my opinion).
If USDT dominance loses this level, it’s lights out (for the bears).

If you have any doubts about the future of this space, just listen to good old Bessent shilling that stablecoins could create $2T of demand for US Treasurys.
We’re nowhere near the true top of this whole thing. Prepare for madness.
