❌🇺🇸 Donald Trump said that SNAP program benefits will be issued only after the U.S. government resumes its work.

More than 40,000,000 Americans rely on the SNAP program - monthly benefits are about $8,200,000,000 (now payments are frozen).

The decision may affect low-income families, pensioners and recipients of social benefits, for whom SNAP is the main source of food support.

😂 Trader Machi Big Brother was liquidated again...

His HyperLiquid account has a miserable $1718 left.

He once earned more than $44,000,000 - but now all his profit has turned into $15,000.00 in losses.

🧸 Welcome to the bear market...

Twitter is already trumpeting that Bitcoin has officially entered the bear market stage, having collapsed by 20% since the peaks of October 6.

@Сryptoz ₿

📉 CryptoQuant: Bitcoin may drop to $72,000 if it does not hold the $100,000 level.

The reason is weak demand after the largest liquidation on October 10 at $20b.

Since then:
⊹ Spot purchases of BTC are decreasing.
⊹ Outflows continue from crypto-ETF.
⊹ There is a negative premium on Coinbase (BTC is traded cheaper on Coinbase than on other exchanges).
⊹ Bull Score index from CryptoQuant - 20 out of 100, bright bear zone.

Context:
⊹ Bitcoin fell below $100k for the first time since June. ⊹ Other crypto assets are also in the red: «GMCI 30» (TOP-30 largest cryptocurrencies) -9% per day.
⊹ Investors are going to risk-off - they fear new tariffs, a pause of the Fed with the rate and a weak stock market.

At the same time, CryptoQuant and Hashdex believe that the $100,000 level is more psychological than fundamental.

Strong factors remain:
⊹ Record inflows to Bitcoin ETF since the beginning of the year.
⊹ Corporations continue to increase Bitcoin on balance sheets.
⊹ Completion of the Fed’s #QT can return liquidity to the markets.

🫧 The Fed is inflating the bubble again, and capital flows into Bitcoin and Gold (Ray Dalio)

✦ The Fed is preparing to complete #QT and return to the printing press (#QE). Officially - a «technical measure», but Dalio considers it the beginning of a new cycle of debt easing and monetization.

✦ If the Fed’s balance sheet begins to grow against the background of a rate reduction, a record budget deficit and the growth of the stock market, it is not a salvation of the economy, but a pouring of gasoline into the overheated market.

✦ At the same time, the economy is not in recession:
• Indices at the maximums.
• Unemployment ~4%.
• Inflation is above the target.
• AI-actions are inflated to the point of madness.
That is, it’s not «QE for the sake of salvation», but QE in the midst of the bubble.

✦ According to the classics of the Great Debt Cycle, it looks like:
• A sharp increase in the supply of public debt.
• The Central Bank buys it out by printing money.
• The Treasury reduces the terms of bonds.
• And inflation is being ignored for the sake of elections and economic growth.

✦ Dalio believes that this is no longer just a technical step - it is the final stage of the cycle: stimulation, debt monetization and overheated markets.

✦ As in previous cycles, capital goes to limited assets: Gold, Bitcoin, etc.

Ray Dalio is a billionaire and founder of the world’s largest hedge fund Bridgewater Associates.
