MARKET UPDATE: Crypto Is Used To Buy Oil?! FED Meeting, And Economy Ripping
A sovereign-authorized USDT oil purchase, despite a failed $230M Venezuelan deal, signals stablecoins entering commodity settlement while the underlying failure reflected diligence, not crypto.AI-driven copper scarcity and Meta’s frontier push sharpen the competitive map, but model prices at 1–10% of frontier offerings and a roughly two-year superintelligence timeline leave unresolved disruption risk.
Sticky Inflation + Energy Prices: End of the Rally or Pause?
Global crude could hit operational tank bottoms by September: inelastic demand and an 8mbd supply loss could keep oil above $100, though Avi says $200 would force resolution within two months.A 50% chance of a December rate hike and Kevin Warsh’s possible real-time CPI rebase create an underpriced catalyst for equities and an even harsher risk for crypto, while Jonah argues AI’s marginal dollar remains far from exhausted.
Is BTC A Buy, Metals Crash, Hyperliquid RWAs, New Fed Chair
Bitcoin at 78K sits in Avi’s original 71–77 buy zone after a 40% drawdown, with a proposed stop below 74 and take-profit near 90, though Jonah sees a broken four-year cycle and no momentum.Metals remain a falling-knife risk as CTA selling may be only 25% complete, while Hyperliquid’s HIP-3 has exceeded $1B in RWA volume and makes HYPE the panel’s conviction long.
Bitcoin Above $100k, Is Alt Season Here?
Bitcoin’s move above $107k as the S&P posts two losing sessions signals crypto-specific demand, while a Cambrian wave of products from Nakamoto, MicroStrategy, Republic, and Coinbase points to latent institutional appetite.Alt season may be short-lived: Launchcoin reached $270M FDV with $15M in weekly fees and a P/E “like four,” while 40% Deribit funding and $3B of new BTC open interest flag leverage risk.
Will We Bottom Soon?
Bitcoin remains in a high-volatility range after holding 75K twice, with Avi favoring partial profit-taking and cash while Jonah sees the market in a new range and watches IBIT/SPY for renewed inflows.The sharper crypto thesis favors tokens with revenue-funded buybacks, while Avi’s 3–6 month RWA basket trade, China tariff risk, and gold’s six-to-12-month outlook define the catalysts and unresolved macro fork.

Election uncertainty makes Bitcoin dominance the cleanest trade: BTC could survive either administration, while altcoins face a binary regulatory outcome.Near $57,900, widened price increments, $200 gaps, and five-day outflows point to broken liquidity, so Avi prefers selling rallies and buying $52K-$53K.Professional alt mandates amplify losses, while Helium and Aave offer conditional upside with unresolved token-value capture and crowded positioning.
