Bitcoin Grinds Below ATH—But the Squeeze Is Coming
BTC’s price action looks sluggish—until you check the derivatives heatmap. Open interest piles up like unmarked bills in a central banker’s basement.
Whales accumulate while retail naps. The last time this much leverage lurked below all-time highs? January 2021.
Watch the $69k level like a hawk. Break it, and the FOMO floodgates blow wide open. Reject it again, and well... at least the crypto bros will have a new ’buy the dip’ mantra.
Meanwhile, Wall Street’s ’digital gold’ narrative gets funnier by the day—Goldman still can’t decide if they’re shilling BTC ETFs or shorting their clients.

Fresh on-chain data fromshows early signs of a potential market transition. Their Bull-Bear Market Cycle indicator—bearish since late February—just flashed its first positive reading in weeks. Though still modest, the upturn in the 30-day moving average suggests mounting bullish pressure. If the short-term trend line overtakes the longer-term 365DMA, it could mirror past moments when Bitcoin entered full-blown rally phases.
Broader conditions seem to support the setup. Altcoins are gaining traction, macroeconomic volatility has cooled, and investor sentiment is improving. If momentum continues building, bitcoin could soon move beyond resistance and enter price discovery once more.
For now, the market waits—but the pieces for a breakout are quietly falling into place.
