Bullish Frenzy Meets Policy Catalyst
Bitcoin (BTC) keeps rewriting its own record book, printing successive all-time highs (latest tick: $119,000) while crypto-friendly lawmakers and insiders tease a “huge week ahead” for digital-asset legislation in Washington. With heavyweight voices like Michael Saylor and Binance’s CZ fanning the flames, traders now wonder: does the rally pause—or does BTC vault straight toward $140-150K?

2 | Why July 14-18 Could Be Explosive
“Crypto Week” on Capitol Hill
CLARITY Act, GENIUS Act & Anti-CBDC bill hit the House floor. Passage—or even headline progress—could unlock a fresh wave of institutional inflows.
Expect lobby-driven sound-bites and possible executive comments that move markets within minutes.
ETF & Fund Flows
Spot-BTC ETFs just logged record daily inflows; another policy-driven catalyst could see $1 B+ in a single session, amplifying price momentum.
Macro Backdrop
Tariff shock fuels dollar volatility. Paradoxically, hard assets like BTC often benefit as traders seek non-sovereign hedges.
On-Chain Signals
Exchange reserves sit at a five-year low, while long-term holder supply keeps rising, reducing sell pressure just as demand spikes.
