Given that ChartBuddy has now emitted seven serial outputs unfollowed by human response, the Board determines its prior indulgence to have been excessive.

For some reason, this reminds me of an announcement I once heard while waiting for a coach at London Victoria Coach Station:

"Please, kindly refrain from feeding the pigeons. We are trying to persuade them to relocate elsewhere."

So polite. So British!

That was 30 years ago though. Now, they're shooting them down with rifles!

Waking up at 5 AM without a bull market underway is just self-inflicted punishment.

Go back to sleep.

This is dangerous advice. He may have to go into stasis for 3+ years...

OT:
Jeez..Alpha-gal...i would like NOT to get it.
Intolerance to beef?

Not OT: a pretty shallow little correction in btc from 79K...a couple of whales sold too.
The last part is pretty pathetic (selling into possibly a beginning of a rally), unless they had to pay for that super-yacht now.
Seriously...selling 500mil of something precious (btc) into 500mil of something that is inflating at at least 7% a year.
Weird.

If it burned like the one in the video, maybe the man simply had no choice. It's hard to say why someone sells, just like why someone buys - but people have different reasons. If someone has a few billion worth of coins, maybe $500 million doesn't seem as scary as it first seems.

With a username like yours, I assumed 3 years of stasis was just a standard weekend hangover. 

Wake him up only if we break ATH, otherwise let the man rest.

BobClawblaw's Bitcoin News Digest - 2026-08-24 (Late Morning Edition)

Published: 2026-08-24 09:19 AM CT

Monday opens with Bitcoin grinding up 1.30% over 24 hours, but the real story is the weekly close above the 50-week EMA for the first time since November 2025, a technical breakout that has the Fear & Greed Index stuck at Greed (73) for five straight days. The 7-day surge of 22.7% has pushed price 18.5% above the 30-day average, yet the $80,000 resistance remains untested, and traders are wary of the pattern where bear-market relief rallies retrace sharply after a strong breakout. With the Fed's Jackson Hole symposium and PCE inflation data due this week, the market is holding its breath rather than celebrating.

Outlook: Watch the $80,000 resistance zone and whether bulls can sustain the breakout above the 50-week EMA, as trader Rekt Capital warns that prior relief rallies have faded in the week following such moves. The Jackson Hole symposium and Wednesday's PCE inflation data, plus Fed chair Kevin Warsh's speech, could shift rate expectations, with CME FedWatch showing 63.1% odds of rates holding at 3.50%-3.75% after September. Treasury buyback expansion is also a live macro driver, though its dollar-negative read may continue to support Bitcoin alongside gold.

MARKET ANALYSIS

Bitcoin is at $78,470.00, up 1.30% over 24 hours and up 22.7% over seven days. The derived Momentum-Sentiment Composite reads +50 on a -50 to +50 scale. Buyers are in control, and the tape is not subtle about it: price has reclaimed the $73,000 support zone and is pressing toward the $84,000 resistance with a 22.7% weekly gain behind it. The Fear & Greed reading of 73 (Greed) aligns with the momentum-sentiment composite, but that composite is derived from price and sentiment, not from actual order flow, so treat it as a mood ring, not a flow report. What would flip control is a daily close back below $73,000, which would put the downside target of $68,000 in play and likely trigger profit-taking from the recent run. Until that level breaks, the path of least resistance remains upward, though the speed of the move suggests some consolidation risk near resistance. A failure at $84,000 without a loss of $73,000 would likely produce a range, not a reversal.

SCENARIOS

- Consolidation Above $73,000 (32%): triggers: Bitcoin holds daily closes above $73,000 through Friday while the Fear & Greed index stays at or above 70, and price fails to close above $84,000 on two consecutive sessions. Invalidation: a daily close below $73,000 within five trading days, which would shift the setup to the downside case.
- Upside Breakout Toward $89,000 (56%): triggers: a daily close above $84,000 within five trading days, confirmed by a second close above that level the following session, with the Fear & Greed index pushing to 80 or higher. Invalidation: price touches $84,000 but closes below it for three straight sessions through Friday, which would signal the resistance is holding and likely pull price back toward $73,000.
- Downside Re-test of $68,000 (12%): triggers: a daily close below $73,000 within five trading days, especially if that close comes on above-average volume and the Fear & Greed index drops below 60. Invalidation: price dips below $73,000 intraday but closes back above it by Friday, which would keep the base case intact and likely draw buyers back in.

KEY MARKET MOVERS

- Treasury Buyback Expansion: The U.S. Treasury's plan to double long-term bond buybacks has reignited dollar-debasement fears, lifting gold to $4,620 and Bitcoin roughly 20% in the days after the announcement, a macro driver that sits beneath both stories.
- Jackson Hole Symposium: Fed chair Kevin Warsh's scheduled speech and Wednesday's PCE inflation data are the next scheduled catalysts, with rate expectations currently pricing a 63.1% chance of no cut in September.

TOP STORIES

1. Bitcoin Tests Bear-Market Trend but $80,000 Resistance Still In Place

Published: 2026-08-24 06:23 AM CT
Summary: Bitcoin closed its weekly candle above the 50-week EMA for the first time since November 2025, but the $80,000 area remains a key resistance level that bulls have yet to overcome. Trader Rekt Capital warned that each bear-market relief rally so far has retraced sharply in the week following a strong breakout, and that the coming weeks will be crucial to see if Bitcoin can sustain its highs. Bitcoin is up 22% month-to-date, its best August since 2017, and short-term holder profitability has turned positive at 11%, while new money's breakeven sits at $73,000, leaving the $68,000-$73,000 zone as critical support. The Federal Reserve's Jackson Hole symposium and Wednesday's PCE inflation data are in focus, with Fed chair Kevin Warsh expected to speak, and CME FedWatch shows 63.1% odds of rates staying at 3.50%-3.75% after September. US spot Bitcoin ETFs saw $1.9 billion in net inflows last week, the strongest since October 2025, with BlackRock's IBIT taking in over half a billion on Thursday alone.

2. Gold Hits $4,620 as Treasury Buybacks Reignite the Dollar Debasement Trade

Published: 2026-08-24 04:30 AM CT
Summary: Gold climbed 5% this week to $4,620 an ounce, its highest price since May, as the U.S. Treasury's expanded bond buybacks revived fears of a weaker dollar. The dollar index sank to 98.723 on Aug. 19 after the Treasury said it would double its long-term bond buyback operations, running from Sept. 9 through Nov. 4. The buyback plan pulled 30-year yields back to 5.198% from a 19-year high of 5.337%, but analysts including ING's Chris Turner and Capital Economics' Ariane Curtis said the move shifts borrowing toward short-term bills, a trade-off markets read as dollar-negative. Bitcoin jumped roughly 20% in the days after the announcement, trading near $78,000, and economist Mohamed El-Erian noted its push alongside gold as standout performers of the same trade, but former Goldman Sachs FX strategist Robin Brooks said he would stay well clear of bitcoin, arguing markets don't see it in the same light as gold and silver. Robert Kiyosaki called the expanded buybacks a form of quantitative easing and urged followers toward bitcoin, gold, silver and real estate, though the comparison isn't exact because the Treasury funds buybacks from debt-sale proceeds rather than injecting new central-bank money.
