🚨 THE BIGGEST ENEMY OF BITCOIN JUST WOKE UP — AND THE MARKET ISN'T SEEING IT
It's not the FED. It's not Iran. It's not Saylor.
It's the Dollar Index.
The DXY, which measures the strength of the US dollar against the major currencies worldwide, rose today by 0.26% to 100.66. And more importantly: it’s about to break its trading range from the last 13 months with force.
Why does this destroy Bitcoin?
The relationship is direct and historical. When the dollar goes up strongly, global capital flows into dollar-denominated assets: US Treasury bonds, US stocks, cash. Crypto gets left out. Always.
And today BTC dropped 1% to $63,900 while the DXY broke resistances. The market is already pricing this in.
Warsh made it clear yesterday that the FED is more concerned about inflation than growth. That means high rates for longer. High rates for longer means a strong dollar. A strong dollar means pressure on BTC.
But there’s something that the panic is masking.
Whales accumulated over 38,000 BTC in the last week according to Glassnode. Funding rates in futures dropped into negative territory for the first time in 2026. That means there’s a massive amount of short positions open. If the dollar fails to break that range convincingly, the short squeeze could be violent.
Does the DXY break upwards and crush crypto, or does it fail in the attempt and trigger a bounce? The levels I’m monitoring are in my profile. 👆
Comment: Do you still trust Bitcoin with the dollar strengthening? 👇
