Financial markets do not only react to numbers but also to the feelings and expectations of investors. In the crypto universe, where volatility is the norm, every signal emitted by a major institution can influence trends. This time, it is JPMorgan that makes a splash: the American bank believes that the Bitcoin and Ethereum markets are facing an increased bearish risk due to a disengagement of institutional investors. Such an analysis is based on the evolution of CME futures contracts, which show signs of critical weakness.

The American economy is facing a dynamic that could disrupt the existing balances: demand for long-term Treasury bonds is weakening, calling into question the strength of the dollar and fueling new economic uncertainties. As the Federal Reserve remains committed to a delicate monetary policy and inflation struggles to slow down, Bitcoin finds itself at a strategic crossroads. Historically viewed as a speculative asset, it is now seeing its status evolve as some U.S. states consider incorporating it into their reserves. The central question is thus: will Bitcoin suffer the effects of this uncertainty or will it seize the opportunity to assert itself as an alternative safe haven?

Bitcoin continues its spectacular rise in early 2025, reaching $98,404 on major exchange platforms. This increase comes against a backdrop of growing institutional adoption and promising technical signals, as traditional markets like gold and the S&P 500 also set new records.

Michael Saylor proposes a bold vision: the United States should acquire 20% of the circulating bitcoins. In a speech at CPAC, he stated that such a strategy could not only strengthen the dollar but also help pay off the national debt. Behind this financial ambition lies a geopolitical struggle where every major power seeks to assert itself in the digital economy of tomorrow.

The SEC, once a bastion of conservatism, is finally awakening to the enchanting song of cryptocurrencies. ETFs are making a grand entrance, and the agency, once inflexible, seems to be discovering the virtues of compromise.

Under the guidance of Anonymous, the magnate Musk is exposed: crypto manipulations, power excesses, and sacrificed workers, the Tesla empire wobbles in the face of digital anger.

The volatility of the crypto market is nothing unusual, but the recent bearish trends have caught the attention of analysts. Nearly a quarter of the 200 largest cryptocurrencies have hit their lowest level in a year, a phenomenon that, according to some experts, could signify an imminent market capitulation. This situation, characterized by cascading liquidations and panic movements, raises questions about the direction the market will take in the coming weeks.

Fort Knox, that golden sanctuary where America hides its reserves, is suddenly in the spotlight. Donald Trump promises to unveil its secrets. Prediction markets are buzzing: bets on an audit before May 2025 are skyrocketing to 70%. Amid skepticism and speculative fever, one question looms: what do the walls of this legendary bunker really hide?

Amidst a disheartening stagnation of Bitcoin and a rush towards gold, the markets are shaken by this dual phenomenon where each rise in gold seems to crush the weak hopes of BTC.

Bitcoin has been navigating a narrow corridor for weeks, between $93,300 and $98,500. A precarious, almost hypnotic balance, where each oscillation seems to hold its breath. Traders scrutinize the charts, indicators flash silently. But this stagnation is merely an illusion. Beneath the surface, the numbers whisper a different truth: consolidation could soon shatter. The burning question is: how long will this calm last before the storm?

On February 19, 2025, Microsoft unveiled a major breakthrough in the field of quantum computing with the launch of its first quantum processor, named Majorana 1. This new chip, based on "topological superconductors," would enable the construction of quantum computers capable of solving complex industrial problems in just a few years, rather than decades. The result of nearly 20 years of research, this innovation could revolutionize not only computing technology but also the crypto world.

Access to cryptocurrencies remains a barrier for the general public, often deterred by the complexity of wallets and private keys. However, the mass adoption of Bitcoin depends on the ability of companies to make its use as seamless as a traditional Web2 service. In this dynamic, Google seems to want to play a key role by facilitating the integration of Bitcoin wallets through its own ecosystem. An initiative unveiled by Kyle Song, a Web3 specialist at the tech giant, which paves the way for broader BTC adoption. This announcement raises as many hopes as questions about the future of decentralization.

"We, central bankers, should study it and explore the technology on which it is built. Studying Bitcoin will not harm us – on the contrary, it will strengthen us," said Aleš Michl, governor of the Czech National Bank (CNB). These statements come three weeks after he presented, during a CNB board meeting on January 30, a proposal to create a "test wallet" in bitcoin. This initiative aims to analyze this highly volatile asset and experiment with its use in the central bank's reserves.

As Bitcoin hovers around 96,000 dollars, Ki Young Ju, CEO of CryptoQuant, asserts that a major correction should not jeopardize the bull run in 2025. This analysis comes amid a context of growing institutional adoption, particularly by U.S. states.

MicroStrategy navigates like an insatiable giant. As bitcoin hovers around $96,000, the firm led by Michael Saylor has just unveiled a new bold move: a $2 billion convertible bond issuance aimed at boosting its bitcoin treasury. A daring, almost provocative strategy that raises questions as much as it fascinates. How has a traditional company transformed into a crypto behemoth? And above all, how far will this quest go?

Since its last rebound, bitcoin has been in a consolidation phase for the past two weeks. Find Elyfe's analysis to decipher the technical perspectives of BTC.

Periods of calm in the Bitcoin market are often misleading. Indeed, when volatility collapses, it gives way to brutal amplitude movements, capable of surprising both seasoned investors and short-term speculators. Today, several technical indicators suggest a scenario similar to that of August 2023: a temporary drop in BTC before a major rebound that could take it up to $85,000. An analysis conducted by CryptoQuant reveals that the current market conditions resemble a past configuration where prolonged stagnation led to massive position liquidations before giving way to a strong bullish trend.

The global economy wavers between uncertainties and successive crises, and some analysts predict an even darker future. Among them is Robert Kiyosaki, entrepreneur and author of the bestseller "Rich Dad Poor Dad," who issues multiple warnings. He claims that a major economic collapse looms on the horizon, driven by a housing market crash, rampant inflation, and mass unemployment. More than just a prediction, his message is a call to action: those who do not prepare risk seeing their wealth collapse. But for Kiyosaki, solutions do exist, and among them, one currency seems truly capable of withstanding the financial chaos: Bitcoin.

While the Fed hesitates between caution and action, inflation runs rampant, and crypto wavers, poised for a week of financial roller coasters.
