Perspective Assessment

Medium-term Still maintaining a strong upward trend, opportunity to surpass the mark of 130k – 170k USD if crypto laws continue positively.

Short-term Mild correction around the range of 116k–118k can be seen, no new breakout formed yet.

Pragmatic strategy Allocate a small amount to observe (wait-and-see), wait for the price to return to the support area (~114–118k) then consider buying more.
