Bitcoin’s Demand Rises—But Will Fate, Tariffs, and Panicked HODLers Doom the Rally?

by

You peer through the smoky glass of the market, and all you see is a chart—impassive, cold—bearing the news: Bitcoin, that unruly child of the digital winter, stirs and twitches with an 8% surge in the last seven days. Once more, some reach out—as hopeful as prisoners awaiting pardon—and dream of bullish tidings. Meanwhile, the crypto analysts, those grizzled veterans of the economic gulag, waggle their fingers, “Patience, comrades.” But hope, like cheap vodka, is hard to quit.

The Apparent Demand: Not Dead, Not Quite Alive

The Apparent Demand (30-day sum!) has found the strength to crawl from the pit of negatives. Stalin himself couldn’t have engineered a more unpredictable metric. It slinks upward, comparing the birthrate of fresh Bitcoins with the faith of those who choose to lock them down and forget the password.


Positive demand? Means that coins are being whisked off to parts unknown (usually the same basement where your uncle keeps gold bullion and expired canned peas), outpacing the mighty miners. Oh, but the rally foretold is still a rumor, whispered in the bunkhouse—tomorrow, or maybe never.

Recollections from the Siberian Wasteland of 2021

2021—they say the market moved then, too. Much faith was laid at the altar of “recovery.” Yet demand limped along like a condemned man—months with a heartbeat, but no real escape. Only after long suffering did the price revive. So this latest pop? Might just be the tick of a dying clock.

Teddy’s Lament: Why Should We Cheer?

Yes, even grizzled market prophets like Teddy risk optimism, despite all the scars. He notes improved demand, salutes the returning buyers. But he doesn’t crack open the vodka just yet.

“Apparent demand recovering” – We can play make-believe. The data offers a weak smile. But, friends, what happens when the next grenade falls? Tariff tantrum, interest rate ambush, some global farce? – And then: optimism goes up in smoke. 💣💸

He frets over the macro storms; tariffs from Comrade Trump and other economic meteor strikes. Cryptocurrency does not live in a vacuum—unless you count Teddy’s wallet.

Trump’s tariff saber-rattling sent shockwaves—not just through steel and pork bellies, but straight into the digital mines. Some got 90 days of peace, just enough time to remember their Binance password. But the threats linger.

The eternal question: when macro hell breaks loose, will the weary Bitcoin lifers hold fast? Or will they too run screaming into the marketplace, clutching their private keys and a faint hope of survival?

This is not a market for the cheerful; only the patient—those who can listen to the sound of digital snow falling in the server farm night—endure.

BTC: The Wheel Turns, And Nobody Escapes Unburned

A new year dawned—$93,623.09! By Trump’s big day, $109,595.64! January: a wild party, up 9.54%, people buying Lambos. February—someone called the police: -16.15%. You remember last March—greater than February, but “less awful” loses its charm quick in crypto.


This month began at $82,541.66. A performance as erratic as the Moscow Philharmonic on a power outage. On April 7? $74,517—a drop so abrupt you’d think a Siberian wind blew through the market. Since April 9, a rebound: 12.49%. In the past 24 hours, up 1.4%. Someone somewhere is celebrating—or losing their last rubles.

And still, you must ask: Is this resilience or just another round of collective delusion? HODLers, take your seat in the camp. The guards are watching, but the market’s true face will reveal itself—eventually. Until then, pour another shot and check your block Explorer. 🍻🔒🚀
