#MarketTurbulence Corrections and "Opportunities"
Current Facts:
- BTC Price: 118,895 USD (decrease 3.05% in 24h).
- ETH Price: 4,635 USD (decrease 2.21%).
- Total Market Cap: 4.03 trillion USD (down 3.49%).
- Liquidations: 1 billion USD in the last 24h.
Causes:
1. The US PPI index increased by 0.9%, hurting hopes for interest rate cuts.
2. The US Treasury announces: "We will not buy BTC", although three months ago they said otherwise.
3. A trader loses 87 million USD on Hyperliquid – just an expensive joke.
Key News:
- MicroStrategy buys 155 BTC (total: 628,946 BTC), ignoring the chaos.
- Ethereum ETFs attract 4.7 billion USD in August, as optimism is free.
- The EU intensifies regulations for stablecoins, because safety is an option.
Forecasts:
- BTC may test 110,000-112,000 USD in 7 days – just a "healthy correction".
- ETH has a 64% chance of reaching 5,000 USD by September, if we ignore the smell of panic.
- BTC RSI at 74: markets are just "enthusiastic", not overheated.
Conclusion:
Turbulence is fueled by profit-taking and contradictory government statements. Follow closely:
1. The FED meeting (August 22) – where central banks tell us that inflation is "transitory".
2. If ETH exceeds 4,700 USD, we will claim we knew from the start.
3. Institutional flows: the only indicator that never lies. Until it does.
