In a riveting new post on the social media extravaganza known as X, CryptoQuant’s Head of Research, Julio Moreno, decided to drop some knowledge about why Bitcoin is behaving like a deflating balloon at a birthday party.

It seems our Maxine is not one to shy away from transparency deficiencies or the absence of any statutory or regulatory basis for the regional bank’s account classification.

On the last Friday-a day that might as well have been named Friday the 13th-Bitcoin plunged over seven percent, landing in the murky waters of a three‑week low at $65,700. The coin, which has huddled between $65,000 and $72,000 since that dreadful February crash, now calls on its devotees to watch the line of support as if it were a last night at a disastrous inn, with everyone leaving early knowing that the doors are suspended.
I’ve been following the market closely, and in a recent CNBC interview, Jeffrey Gundlach shared my own cautious outlook on stocks. He’s looking at the VIX – that’s the Chicago Board Options Exchange’s volatility index, which essentially gauges how much swings investors expect – and it’s not giving him a lot of confidence right now.
