Я пам'ятаю час, коли лиш починався світ
Хто міг, той підіймався та йшов
Ішов собі високо в гори, взявши у похід
Свою надію сильну, як любов
Що все буде добре...
Океан Ельзи - Все буде добре
While everyone was waiting for the "to the moon" moment after the inauguration and all the loud slogans, the market taught us a harsh lesson: politics is noise, liquidity is king.
Many are blaming the current Bitcoin pullback to around $60k on "external factors," but let's call it like it is: the Trump administration made several strategic missteps that overheated expectations and then smashed them against reality.
Populism over regulation
Promises of a "Strategic Bitcoin Reserve" were rocket fuel for the pre-election and post-inauguration pump — Bitcoin soared from post-election levels to an all-time high near $126k in October 2025 on pure hype. But turning that into law? It's bureaucratic hell. The market quickly realized quick wins weren't coming, and smart money started taking profits.
Protectionism vs. Bitcoin's DNA
Trump's push for tariffs (especially on China and beyond) and a stronger dollar directly clashes with Bitcoin as a hedge against fiat debasement. A muscular dollar always weighs on risk assets like crypto. When trade war fears flared up again, global markets got spooked, and leveraged crypto positions got wrecked.
Cabinet chaos and Fed uncertainty
Erratic appointments and late-night Truth Social posts about the Fed (including the Kevin Warsh pick signaling tighter policy vibes) created the kind of volatility institutions hate. Investors flee to predictability — not to 3 a.m. rants.
The result? Bitcoin erased the entire "Trump pump," dipping briefly below $61k in early February 2026 before clawing back to trade around $70–71k as of mid-February. The crash wiped out billions, triggered mass liquidations, and reminded everyone: hype fades when macro reality bites.
My forecast: When will BTC rebound?
I'm staying cautiously optimistic. We're in a classic "weak hands shakeout" phase right now.
But history shows Bitcoin survives winters — and thrives after them.
A real bounce likely needs the political noise to die down and clearer signals from the Fed on rates. Look toward the end of Q1 or into Q2 for meaningful recovery, especially if liquidity returns and adoption keeps grinding higher quietly.
Bitcoin doesn't need a savior in a red tie. It needs transparent math, time, and fundamentals that don't change overnight. Still, cycles turn. Liquidity will eventually flow back, adoption keeps growing quietly, and Bitcoin has survived far worse. The fundamentals haven't changed: scarce asset, institutional interest, and a world still printing fiat. This dip might just be the shakeout before the next leg up.
And to guys like Trump and his administration, I usually ask one simple question: "Does your back hurt?" They always look surprised — because their back is perfectly fine. Bullshitting ain't like hauling sacks( Пиздіти - не мішки таскати).Ok, my dearests, thanks for reading this to the end. Wishing y'all happiness, solid health, and the
$BTC course you truly deserve. Hugging everyone tightly, lifting you up lightly, and kissing you tenderly. Forever yours, 老虎 🐯🫡
