TL;DR

The Fed’s surprise 25 bps rate cut didn’t spark the Bitcoin breakout everyone hoped for—BTC is stuck under $120K resistance even as gold-crypto correlations flip. Meanwhile, this week saw the biggest long liquidations of 2025, sending altcoins tumbling and rattling traders who were banking on an imminent alt season.

Despite the carnage, there are bright spots on the horizon: potential catalysts like altcoin ETFs and the CLARITY Act, plus bullish setups in LINK (thanks to a Dept. of Commerce tie-in), XRP (26% from its last ATH), AVAX, and even fresh airdrop plays. Institutional buyers are quietly scooping up dips, so keep an eye on TOTAL2 levels, ETH’s weekly structure, and BTC dominance for clues on where things head next.
