Oh, and if you’re curious what transporting gold vs. Bitcoin looks like…

Crypto Twitter has been buzzing with bullish vibes, and it looks like we’re finally nearing the tipping point. Expectations have been running high, but the numbers and prices are finally starting to back it up.

However, the reality is, things are starting to heat up and the two major power moves that kicked off this week’s upswing: China’s big stimulus play and BlackRock going full throttle on crypto marketing.

China’s Stimulus: Return of the Dragon 🐉
China’s economy is making bold moves, aiming for a comeback worthy of an action movie. Beijing has rolled out its biggest stimulus package since the pandemic, cutting bank reserve requirements and slashing interest rates. This move injects over 1 trillion yuan ($137B) into the economy, hoping to revive consumer spending and ease debt pressure.

BlackRock: Bitcoin’s New Hype Machine 🥳
BlackRock is all in on Bitcoin, and they’re not being shy about it. Execs are now talking Bitcoin on Bloomberg like it’s a weekly ritual - something unthinkable just two years ago.

BlackRock also dropped a Bitcoin analysis, pitching it as a top alternative asset and portfolio diversifier for financial pros and traditional investors. Translation: even the big dogs on Wall Street are now joining the Bitcoin fan club.

🐂 Add to the bullish vibes with more short-term events that will build the hype like:

All signs point to this: Global liquidity and Bitcoin prices are headed for a collision course. Buckle up! 🚀

10-10-10 Crypto Sprint 🚀

We are taking $10k and challenging ourselves to turn it into $100k in just 10 months!

The plan? Maximize gains by trading altcoins, but we’re also asking ourselves: Would we have been better off just buying Bitcoin and chillin'? 🤔

Either way, the challenge is on, and we’re off to the races. Follow along as we make our moves and see if we can outpace the king of crypto. Got a good feeling about one of our trades? Feel free to borrow the idea (we won’t tell).

💡 Here’s Our Game Plan:

  1. Target Altcoins: We’re hunting for altcoins with serious pump potential and some solid long term holds.

  2. Strategic Conversions: Once we hit some juicy gains, we’ll lock them in and convert profits back to Bitcoin to build a long-term stash.

  3. Simplicity Rules: No leverage, no hedging - just straight up trades. Keep it clean, keep it simple.

  4. Transparency: Every trade is logged, whether it’s a win, a loss, or somewhere in between. You’ll see it all, no filters here!
