Market & price signals
— Bitcoin trading at $59,596. Linear trend line from 2022–2023 lows being tested on daily chart. RSI sweeping lower lows while price prints higher lows—cited as rotation energy and potential bull-market signal. Two-hundred-week moving average noted as support zone. Durden BTC model floor projects to $101K; historical lows (2013, 2016) preceded face-melting bounces. BlackRock states Bitcoin will "likely see renewal in upward price around the midterm election" driven by money-printing fears and Fed policy uncertainty. Franklin Templeton ETF filing shows $5–20% Bitcoin allocation range. Lightning Network capacity over 4 BTC; sats per vByte around 238.6K.
Actionable insights

— Tax Clarity Act passage could remove forced-sale pressure on miners (scheduled for July–August vote); watch for regulatory tailwinds and potential institutional inflows via Franklin Templeton ETFs (launch ~early September).
— Bull Bitcoin's MiCA compliance without infrastructure outsourcing proves self-custodial Bitcoin business models can meet EU standards; signals regulatory pathway for privacy-focused exchanges that may expand globally.
