Casually Making Money While Puppies Wait: Bitcoin’s Uncertain Destiny 🐶💰

by

Bitcoin‘s kinda just taking it slow, like a snail on a leisurely stroll, after sneezing a tiny 1% from the feverish excitement, even though Farzam Ehsani, CEO of VALR, is dropping some serious prophecy vibes.

He’s all “Once the hipsters swing their capital from their precious metals, we’re looking at major, major gainz!” Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s gotta play the Great Barrier Reef of pressure zones first. Can it, will it?

Why the VALR CEO Thinks Bitcoin’s Got Some Waiting to Do

Farzam’s all about that capital rotation life, not your elementary school charts and graphs. Here’s what he spilled to BeInCrypto:

“Bitcoin and Ethereum are gonna have an aggressive price growth party, but only after the precious metals rave dies down,” he told us, like it’s his job to tell us these things.

He’s candidly linking Bitcoin’s finnicking to where the world’s money is slumming:

“Gold‘s gone up by 69%, silver spiked by a whopping 161%… All birds had left the crypto nest,” he gets real with us.

The graphs tell the juicy gossip: Bitcoin’s flirting – just a tad – with gold at about -0.11 correlation. Seems like the money folks are doing a safety dance with metals rather than the crypto cha-cha.

But Farzam’s not sweating it; he thinks it’s just a Monday, not a Monday that eats you alive:

“Bitcoin’s biggest fans stopped looking to sell after July. New record,” he says with the flip of a page in his monthlies.

He calls this chill morning phase “calm before the storm” because, plot twist, everyone knows calm before the storm spell starts a thriller.

“Imagine Bitcoin flirting with $130,000 in Q1 2026. Don’t Google it though, the plot thickens only with the metals,” he’s like a fortune teller without the wonky nose.

The macro fanfiction is as clear as a glass of vodka: capital allocation’s holding out, not some cataclysmic flaw. But hey, Bitcoin’s got its own ‘South Park’ hurdles too!

Short-Term Holders Are Flipping the Plot

Those character long-term holders stopped yodeling for sellouts, but now let the short-term holders stage their rebellious revolt. They’ve been pacing their coin for a bit, usually looking at break-even screens with a glint in their eye.

This break-even level is a thing called ‘short-term holder realized price’ chillin’ near $99,100. When they’re underwater, it’s send help; they hover near it, they wave “meh.” So, if they decide to sell en masse, it’s like everyone said, “Yeah, yeah, capital rotation, release the Kraken.”

Check out this fancy technical boost, Short-term Holder NUPL (Net Unrealized Profit/Loss) is making timid recovery from serious emoji-face territory. It’s a rally cry when losses get cut down, folks.

When the NUPL is strutting its best ‘zero-suited’ look, selling tends to punch up because-surprise-it’s about trimming losses, not celebrating a bear festival. Props to Bitcoin for possibly playing possum near $99,100 even while it should be putting on its best outfit.

Bitcoin Price Levels That’ll Decide the Big Story

Like any great short, Bitcoin’s comfort zone is an acrobatic cup-and-handle pattern, trying to impress us all. For this pizzazz to happen, it needs clearances: break a defensive line near $95,180, then ninja jump two real deal hurdles afterward.

First, the gate near $99,400 – very close to our newfound friend, the short-term holder realized price. Get a pass here, and it’s like telling traders, “Think broke? Nope!”

Brace yourself, the second leap is near $101,600, holding hands with the cool 365-day moving average, which spells out if Bitcoin’s gonna stay partying or take a nap. Grab this high-five, and consolidation probably turns into a whole expansion fiesta.

If you nail these levels, like, super cleanly, the plot twists towards sizzling highs, syncing with Farzam’s prophecy. The spotlight target? Stationed at $108,000, according to chart scripts.

If Bitcoin slips, the bold plan still looks hopeful north of $91,900. But if it decides to dive, like, really dive below $84,300, that’s like saying, “Nope, the punchline’s not funny today.” Though it doesn’t tell us that the party’s over; just that it’s waiting for COVID-19 restrictions to lift.

Bitcoin’s epilogue is still looking like a fan fiction. It’s gathering proof from the short-term action stars and getting ready for capital rotation to take its bow.
