⚠️ Warning Signs! Will BTC Be Able To Invalidate The Bears?
PLUS is Berachain really coming back?

GM, the clock is ticking uncomfortably loudly.
As mentioned yesterday, what we want to see this week is shallow dips followed by a BTC breakout to new highs. The longer we stall at these levels, the greater the chance we see a distribution move lower first. Put simply, if Bitcoin clears $120k by the end of the week, things start looking very solid.
Fortunately, everything’s looking fine right now with BTC hovering just above $118k, so let’s see how it turns out by Friday and the weekly close.
Interestingly enough, there was a massive pump in copper futures yesterday. Historically, this is an excellent sign for risk assets to continue higher.
Back to our “altseason’s most important indicator,” we started tracking on Monday. If you look at these lines, yesterday’s dip caused them to draw further apart, and the cross, which usually points to the market being overheated, hasn’t happened yet.
For altcoins to resume the good times, we want to see TOTAL3 bounce soon. As they say, “never trust the fourth”, it’s literally now or never (maybe just later) for TOTAL3 to use the fourth touch to break out for good. Let’s see. Plus, looking at this OTHERS retest is very hopium-inducing, also.
Overall, I agree with what CZ has to say here. Let’s ride.

Berachain’s comeback?
Finally, there are signs that Berachain might be saved, after all. The new Proof of Liquidity system 2.0 has been implemented and focuses on driving value back to BERA. Here’s a deep dive on “Berachain’s End Game” by Smokey himself.
The BERA chart is currently trying its best to exit the bottom accumulation, and we’re seeing some nice upticks in ecosystem incentives. It still has ways to go, but it’s a start.
One project that clearly stands out here is Dolomite, the “Aave of Berachain”. After reaching almost $1b in TVL, it’s back on the rise from the $130M TVL bottom. At only a $30M circulating market cap, this one is one to watch paired with possible BERA recovery.
Market retracing but $DOLO moving in reverse tells me that the interest in $BERA is slowly increasing
One of the most +EV DeFi strategies i've used this month month was depositing my Bera on Dolo, and borrowing Honey to stake on @moneygoesburr
Opportunities are everywhere on

There’s likely still time, but it’s good to remember that we’re now well in the end stages of this bull cycle, as evidenced by these charts.
Once it’s all about meme stocks and altcoins, then…
It might be three months, half a year, or even into early 2026, but it’s hard to believe those who say the bull run has just started.
stay safe homies,
