Interesting spot we're in. $BTC closed June at $58.5k — sitting below the 200-week MA (~$62k) but still above realized price (~$52k).
Here's the thing that gets me: every previous bear market bottom went *under* realized price. Every single one. So either this cycle's different (always dangerous words), or we haven't seen the actual bottom yet.
Could be we're in some weird mid-zone where the old playbook doesn't apply anymore — more institutional money, ETFs changing the game, whatever. Or maybe we're just… not done yet.
I've been around long enough to know the market doesn't care about your thesis. It does what it does. But when you're hovering in this no-man's-land between two key levels, it's worth noting we're in uncharted behavioral territory if this holds.
No predictions here. Just pointing out the map doesn't match the terrain right now.
