Bitcoin is a coiled spring. Here is what I see:

    00:01 Hey everyone, it feels like Bitcoin is a
    00:04 coiled spring about to launch at the
    00:06 moment. Um, so let me tell you what I
    00:08 see from my uh my observation spot. Uh,
    00:12 first of all, James Check, who goes by
    00:14 Checkmate on Twitter, uh, just released
    00:17 his new latest analysis this morning,
    00:19 which is very positive. He basically
    00:20 says, “Look, this is like everything’s
    00:23 looking fantastic. We should teleport to
    00:25 $125,000 per coin in the near term. will
    00:29 start to get overheated above $150,000
    00:31 per coin, but that’s okay. You know, the
    00:34 cost basis of all the Bitcoin out there,
    00:36 which is called the realized cap, is,
    00:38 you know, keeps grinding higher as
    00:40 there’s more trading volume. Anyway,
    00:42 everything about everything about
    00:44 Bitcoin is just looking amazing right
    00:46 now. Um, additionally, Congress should
    00:48 be uh voting on probably later today or
    00:52 maybe tomorrow an amendment an amendment
    00:55 uh to the BBB uh the big beautiful bill
    00:58 that is not big or beautiful, but it is
    01:01 big. So anyway, it’s it’s a bloated
    01:03 monstrosity with all sorts of problems.
    01:06 It will uh looks like it will have an
    01:08 amendment added to it um which will uh
    01:12 exempt from capital gains tax any
    01:15 bitcoin transaction that is less than
    01:17 $600 which would be an absolute mega
    01:21 gamecher for bitcoins used as a medium
    01:24 of exchange. Uh I mean imagine this you
    01:26 buy bitcoin it increases the value by a
    01:28 factor of 5x and then you can just use
    01:30 it to buy stuff and you don’t pay
    01:32 capital gains on any of that increase. I
    01:34 mean that is an absolute massive mega
    01:37 gamecher and we are very very very close
    01:40 to getting that actually in law in the
    01:42 real world which is just absolutely
    01:44 insane. Um but anyway uh it’s
    01:46 interesting because there’s the saying
    01:48 in Bitcoin that in a bull market
    01:51 negative news doesn’t matter and in a
    01:53 bare market um positive news doesn’t
    01:56 matter. And the crazy thing is Bitcoin
    01:59 is $107,000 per coin, but it’s trading
    02:03 like it’s in a bare market. Meaning no
    02:06 matter what positive news hits, it just
    02:09 doesn’t seem to affect the price. And
    02:11 typically that would be the case when
    02:12 you’re at the low point of a market
    02:15 price cycle rather than a high point.
    02:17 Now, that could just be a random anomaly
    02:19 of its maturity, or it could indicate
    02:22 that 107 is actually a pretty, you know,
    02:24 low price and that as soon as we
    02:27 teleport to a significantly higher
    02:28 price, we’re going to suddenly, uh,
    02:30 consistently find out that every little
    02:32 piece of positive news, uh, you know,
    02:34 makes Bitcoin ratchet significantly
    02:36 higher. But it is sort of a weird
    02:39 twilight zone we’re in right now where
    02:41 the price is 107, but it’s, you know,
    02:45 it’s the the the news is sort of an
    02:47 aduls,
    02:50 nothing really exciting. The amazing
    02:52 positive stuff that’s happening behind
    02:54 the scenes just doesn’t seem to be
    02:55 having any effect on the price.
    03:00 So, what is likely to happen next? Well,
    03:03 something either something big will be a
    03:06 catalyst that will jolt Bitcoin to a
    03:10 significantly higher high or the people
    03:13 who are willing to sell in the $17,000
    03:17 price range will eventually run out.
    03:19 There will just be enough people will be
    03:22 have gotten enough liquidity uh to buy
    03:25 whatever it is they want to buy to
    03:27 improve the lives of them and their
    03:28 family. enough people will have bought
    03:30 enough stuff that they’ll just be done
    03:33 buying and when the buying uh people
    03:36 willing sorry done buying whatever it is
    03:38 other than Bitcoin and when the people
    03:40 willing to sell their Bitcoin because
    03:41 they’re buying you know whatever cars
    03:43 houses you know vacations whatever it is
    03:46 people buy um when the number of people
    03:49 willing to sell goes up sorry one second
    03:52 here I decided I want to go somewhere
    03:56 other than where the driver the uh I
    03:58 told the Tesla I wanted to go somewhere,
    03:60 but I’ve realized I want to go somewhere
    04:01 else. Um anyway, so um as a result of
    04:04 that, um the essentially the people who
    04:07 are willing to sell at 107 run out and
    04:10 then suddenly the price has to go higher
    04:12 because there’s still buyers. There’s
    04:13 buyers that are willing to pay pay
    04:15 whatever the market price is. And if
    04:17 they can’t get it for 107, they’ll pay
    04:19 109 or 112 or 115 or 125. They just
    04:22 will. Uh so anyway, at some point here
    04:25 in the near future, we’re going to stop
    04:27 being stuck at what feels like stuck at
    04:29 a 107. We’ve been in a very tight
    04:31 trading range. Again, everything that
    04:34 James Czech is seeing is like, “Wow,
    04:36 this is very positive.” Everything I’m
    04:38 seeing is like, “Wow, this is very
    04:40 positive.” everybody everybody on, you
    04:42 know, who’s seeing anything on Twitter
    04:43 is like, “So is it we’re still at 107
    04:46 because like everything, you know, the
    04:48 the tailwinds pushing Bitcoin forward
    04:51 are probably the strongest they’ve ever
    04:53 been in history. Yet here we are at 107
    04:56 because people who have been holding
    04:58 Bitcoin a long time are still willing to
    05:00 part with some of that at 107 to do
    05:03 whatever it is that they’re planning to
    05:04 do.” Um, so anyway, we will run out of
    05:07 sellers. It’s only a matter of time till
    05:08 we run out of sellers. and then the
    05:10 price will go up. Obviously, the price
    05:12 could dip before it goes up. That’s
    05:14 always a possibility. But everything I’m
    05:16 seeing, everything James Czech is
    05:18 seeing, everybody everything everyone is
    05:20 seeing just leaves us all to scratch our
    05:23 heads and say this can’t last long. You
    05:25 know, this this spring is pretty dang
    05:28 coiled. And at some point, it’s going to
    05:30 unleash with all the energy that has
    05:32 been accumulated the entire time we’ve
    05:35 been bouncing around. uh all of that
    05:37 energy at some point is going to be
    05:38 unleashed on the market and uh you know
    05:42 it’ll make the price go much higher. So
    05:45 um anyway, everything I’m seeing
    05:46 indicates Bitcoin’s going to do exactly
    05:49 what I’ve thought it’s always going to
    05:50 do and nothing I’m seeing indicates that
    05:52 that’s not going to be the case and here
    05:55 we are. So, uh if you’re thinking of
    05:57 buying Bitcoin, you know, here you have
    05:59 a chance of buying it at 107. Not sure
    06:02 how much longer that’ll last. Nobody
    06:03 knows. Um, but it strikes me as the good
    06:06 time to buy Bitcoin to accumulate as
    06:09 much as you plan to buy uh before
    06:11 Bitcoin ratchets up to the next logical
    06:14 price and then probably hangs around
    06:16 there for a while. So anyway, still
    06:18 seems like a great time to buy Bitcoin
    06:20 and you know, seems like the price
    06:22 inevitably is going to be a whole lot
    06:24 higher in the very near future. So have
    06:27 a great day everyone. Thank
