Traders accumulating at these levels are betting that the $70,000 threshold will break upwards, not downwards. And they’re putting their money where their mouth is, as the saying goes. This is real capital, not conference statements. These positions are placed below the current price, meaning they serve both as support and a signal—a visible…

For the first time in history, telecommunications and industry connected the whole world, enabling a truly global reach. Prior to that point, multipolarity was the norm. Even during the height of the…
