a busy day yesterday, but a little more coming up Today & Tomorrow

Thursday 31st: USA PCE & Apple + Amazon earnings

Friday August 1st: USA NFPs MSTR earnings + Tariffs deadline

I think the usual "slowdown" in ETF inflows to BTC/ETH is normal before such hectic week, if these events are nothingburger (like they are 95% of the time), i expect them to return on Monday onwards

(apparently due to my Telegram room being "popular") Telegram (the app itself) decided to sometimes show you some Ads

I want to make it crystal clear I do not need 5-10-15 USD per month in their "50/50% fee split program", but also I cant turn off these Ads unless I reach "level 50" which ... requires me to pay lol

Michael Saylor:

Live now (sorry for spam, busy days)

holy shit SOL @ 160 already

dipping my toes in - tiny position for now

exiting that long at 204 doesnt look so gay anymore hmm (i got so many DMs calling me names)

not doing victory laps just yet but man, does it feel good when billionaires take a weekend off

then show up on Monday US Open and send it all higher (ETFs & TradFi & TreasuryCo’s)

dev talking about price - bearish

Good day in the Stock Market (Dow + 585.06, 1.34%, S&P 500 + 91.93, 1.47%, NASDAQ + 403.45, 1.95%), but there will be many more days like this. America is very rich again, and stronger than ever before. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Huge

relevant context is that this will take many months and possibly 1-2 yrs to be “live” (fully finalized & launched)

regardless, this is imo one of biggest pro-crypto headlines we have seen in years

TLDR: 401ks great but will take a bit of time

we will get to dump on seniors/retirees/boomers

cute :3

I will be taking profits on my longs probably today/tomorrow (before weekend)

very solid intra-week moves captured & will see how market reacts to next weeks CPI print

we were blessed with incredible amount of good headlines & tradfi pretty much at ATH again

TradFi back to All-Time-Highs
VIX 15-16 handle, DXY back 97-98 handle

Feels like every bad or good headline in macro leads to tradfi pushing significantly higher

I am taking profits on my pretty much bottom buys as per this TG chat. Trump is signing the 401k EO in a bit.

Happy weekend

I already regret taking profit...

Trump putting his "people" into FED (Miran) & forcing Tech Giants into "Pay to play" model

Will see if I can get positioned again around CPI, if not ill cry "only being 100% spot long BTC"

Whilst ETH, does seem like a much better option with tens of billions of dollars of buying pressure for ETH

To put some numbers in perspective

3.2% of all ETH was purchased by ETFs & Treasury companies in past few weeks & almost 30% of all ETH is staked === it does not take a lot of money to move ETH upwards violently.

There are 3 major SOL DATs
1) Galaxy 1.65b (track them at https://intel.arkm.com/explorer/address/88ao9M7PuNoyubW575bhUM6S6wbrVPUwUxsvy8EXBxtH -> if I read Arkham data correctly, already bought in 1,4b range)
2) Pantera (TBA) but 0.5-1b range -> purchased 0 so far on the open market
3) UAE DAT (TBA) but 0.5-1b range -> purchased 0 so far on the open market

We have seen what happened to BTC with DATs (Saylor) -> number went up
We have seen what happened to ETH with DATs (Tom Lee) -> number went up
Now SOL is mooning, because of DATs

For some reason so much online discourse was that its "all locked SOL", price suggests it wasnt locked SOL...

& SOL ETFs are coming up in next 30-45 days from today, if BlackRock was to file for an SOL ETF, I will be longing again, no matter the price

(i will post like once a month cya :3)
