Bitcoin's been playing peek-a-boo with that stubborn 89.5K resistance level - touching it, breaking it briefly, then stepping back like it wasn't quite ready for the spotlight.
And while everyone's busy refreshing their charts, something interesting is happening: Bitcoin gained more in 24 hours than most people make in a month ($7K, to be exact).
The Fear and Greed Index? It's screaming "extreme greed" - but here's what's really making noise: this pump might not be all about Trump after all.
Remember those post-halving supply crunches everyone was talking about? Turns out they might be the real story behind these green candles.
Confused? Let's make sense of it all! Here is a quick rundown of the top headlines from the past 24 hours:
Let's dive in!
Bitcoin Takes Off
The crypto world just witnessed something extraordinary.

The market seems pretty excited about the possibility.

His "Golden Triumph Ordinals Set" is thriving.
Schiff's marketing angle? "There's 21 million Bitcoin but only 50 Golden Triumph ordinals. It's clear which one is more valuable."
