Bitcoin (BTC) Surges as Macro Tailwinds Build
Bitcoin reclaimed the $115,000 level, climbing ~3–4% in the past 24 hrs. 
• Technical indicators show it moved above its 50-day SMA — a meaningful short-term sign of momentum. 
• Liquidations: Roughly $373 million in short positions were wiped out. 
• Macro backdrop: Market participants are betting on a rate cut by the Federal Reserve, supporting risk assets like crypto. 
Why it matters:
The move suggests that crypto is responding to broader financial signals (not just crypto-specific news). A rate cut lowers the cost of capital and can make speculative assets more attractive. For someone in information security or fintech like you, it underscores how crypto’s correlation with macroeconomics is growing — meaning regulatory, infrastructure, and compliance implications become more complex.
Watch-out:
• While momentum is positive, one important resistance (the Ichimoku cloud) remains unbroken. 
• Pullbacks are still possible — the market’s “easy gains” may be behind us.
• As you oversee security & infrastructure, note that rising values often mean increased risk of hacks, phishing, and elevated network activity.
