$BTC $BTC – the king among coins and the backbone of any decent crypto strategy. Anyone who doesn't have BTC in their portfolio is playing crypto on Easy Mode – and still losing. Especially in times when altcoins fluctuate like a sailor on shore leave, Bitcoin is the rock in the surf. Personally, I like to trade riskier at times, but without BTC, nothing works. It is the pair I always return to. Whether with USDT, ETH, or even BNB – BTC remains the reference. Anyone who wants to understand the market must understand Bitcoin. Period.
