Iran pause sends oil sharply lower and lifts bitcoin into Fed week

Fed, BOE and BOJ decisions set a macro-heavy week for bitcoin
This week brings rate decisions from the Federal Reserve, Bank of England and Bank of Japan, alongside U.S. GDP and PCE data. With markets still debating how close the Fed is to another hike, macro releases and central-bank guidance are set to dominate bitcoin’s next move.

Record U.S. debt revives bitcoin and gold debasement trade narrative
CoinDesk highlighted U.S. federal debt hitting a record $39.7 trillion, sharpening the case for scarce assets such as bitcoin and gold. The piece argues that fiscal strain and the risk of future monetary accommodation are reviving the debasement trade, even if bitcoin still trades more like a risk asset than a classic haven.

Strategy made no bitcoin purchase for a fifth straight week, kept holdings at 843,775 BTC, and raised its dollar reserve to $3.75 billion after selling $544.5 million of MSTR shares. The shift suggests the largest corporate bitcoin holder is prioritizing liquidity and preferred dividend coverage over aggressive accumulation for now.

This chart literally hacks Bitcoin’s four year cycle.

Buy when more than 50% of the total supply is held at a loss.

Trim or sell when nearly 100% of the supply is held in profit.

If you want to master the 4-year cycles, this is the signal to watch. https://t.co/4GusEMN01i
