But I am back today and we're in full swing alongside the new Fed chairman Nipinator. Cop your cap today over@bitcoin caps.net but you guys already know. Let's kick it off with our market watch as we do each and every day. Pulling up coin360. As you can see on your screen, Bitcoin back in a green flirting at around 119 at the time of the live stream. Ether in the green up 4%. The bulk of the market pumping and in the green and the new all time high crypto market cap. By the way, we did tap $4 trillion which is pretty amazing. And checking out coin market cap.com the current crypto market cap is just shy of that 3.89 trillion. At the cusp of hitting a new all time high, the bitcoin market cap 2.365 trillion 212 billion worth of volume for the past 24 hours. Bitcoin dominance coming in today at 60.8% with ether dominance at 11.6%. And checking out top 100 crypto gainers past 24 hours. We got story up 6% followed by curved out 6% followed by Athena up 6%. Which alts if any, are you bullish? Oh for the bull, holla, let me know. And checking out the crypto bubbles. I like to use this to get that visual perspective of the market and it's a pretty mixed bag. I dare say 6040 green over red overall in the market and zooming out on the weekly, I'd say maybe 75, 25 green over red. So we had a good week and zooming out on the monthly even better. Virtually the entire market pumping and in the green and checking out the infamous crypto green and fury index after the stupido ad. I mean what are you gonna do? Always get hit with the ads. But anyways, greed is at 71 yesterday, 74 last week of 74 and last month was 65 in greed giving us some room to continue to run up and check it out. The time chain calendar. Today we're on block 9006993 with 143seven blocks until the having of 2028 and as of today, July 24th, 2025 you can exchange one fiat monopoly dollar for 842 sats. Again one dollar will get you 842 sats. So you know what to do. You pick up the SATs, put down the gats, pick up some bitcoin caps from a man, sergio over@bitcoincaps.net as you know we boycotted the tube along with 77,000 subs. 7 years to build. But I feel this was in our best interest. I no longer support the screw tube for obvious reasons and this is the new home of Bitcoin news alerts and I consider it destiny, I truly do. But anyways, let's kick it off next with our ta AKA Astrology for the baddies. Of course Bitcoin do Massive short squeeze as dominance bounces the 62% bounce, bounce. Come on, bounce here. You're looking at a one hour chart and I'm actually going to be pulling up the live charts as I do each and every day. So you get live charts chart action Jackson satisfaction just by being tuned in, which is pretty amazing. Trading View showed Bitcoin dropping to a local low of117.2 via BIS stamp and then data from Coin Glass confirmed a large buildup of overhead liquidity above the spot, helped by Wednesday's dip below 118 G's. Let me know how many of you took advantage of it. And bitcoin liquidity is piling up to the top side, according to Mr. Crypto. He says a massive short squeeze is inevitable. Tell me more about that fellow trader Crypto Rover described the short squeeze scenario as an obvious next step and I would second that, Dan. Crypto trades argues that 120 and 115 were the key price levels to monitor. We've broken through 120 numerous times. The current top is still 123. 2. That's current price discovery. According the analyst, Bitcoin is still stuck within the range. Lots of positions on both sides now eyes on those liquidity clusters below 115 and 120. Would assume the price wants to take both those out at some point. And in a growing turnar around, altcoin momentum had showed signs of struggle as bitcoin started to regain control over the total crypto market cap. Naturally, as the bitcoin dominance rises, it sucks out liquidity from the alt and vice versa. Bitcoin dominance was up a half a percent on the day, building on the existing comeback after nearly hitting 60% which is the new local low. Rec Capital says that the altcoin market is reacting and as if bitcoin has broken down from the range but it has not. In fact this is retesting the lower high and range low as support the retest currently in progress. And if you don't know, you better ask your mama. Also in breaking news, Senator Lummis's bill for the US to acquire 1 million Bitcoin is currently headed to the floor. A lot of speculation. It's going to get shot down, but let me know your thoughts. That's nearly 5% of the total bitcoin supply and I'm gonna nudge Trump and say why so bearish. And also cynthia, I'm proposing 5 million alongside the gigachad just as when Sailor walked in the White house like an OG, he he said Trump should buy 5 million Bitcoin for the US and guess what? Trump just recently front ran the US with his own company via his treasury play which was our last episode a couple of days ago before the blackout. So you already know. So game for the U.S. also, happy birthday Mr. President. Again, it's Bukele's birthday so I want to read this post from Stacy Herbert honoring President B. She put another year that we've all been blessed by your pretty awesome bold leadership of the new El Salvador, thy savior. From slashing crime to embrace an innovation you're continuing to build the better, brighter future for Salvadorans.

Now worth 11 billion. So you may have screwed the Winklevoss twins Mr. Zuck with Facebook, but it looks like they're smarter than you as they now have 11 billion worth of bitcoin in their obviously assets are going up forever. Laura Trade of the century I dare say. Also Samson Mao reminds us and shout out Samson. With alts the trade is selling before everyone else. Fact. With Bitcoin the trade is buying before everyone else. Fact. I couldn't agree more with that. He also points out here that PS say Ripple corporate insiders can dump on you for the next hundred years. I think he's referring to Chris Larson doing another multiple hundred million dollar dump which is not good for the XRP holders. Fortunately Satoshi is a G and his coins will never move. Never have moves since the inception and he's never selling. So take that constipated Janet yelling ban. And with that being shared I did promise live chart Action Jackson satisfaction Bo Jackson with a little Tony Braxton for the baddies. So let's do that real quick. Pulling up trading view. This is the one hour chart via Coinbase. You can see there is a Red Bull target in play sitting at 121770 again on the one hour chart. Zooming out from there. Taking a quick look at the four hour the four hour chart shows us there is a Barney. Hi kids, it's Barney the Purple Dinosaur Bull flag scenario in play just shy of 137000 and let me know what you think of my Barney impersonation. And I actually played Barney for those that didn't know that. So yeah, that was me. Crazy right? And zooming out on the daily more bullish Action Jackson for you. Rising Wedgie followed by another Barney the Purple dinosaur target sitting at 146 4. Obviously that is approximately 23ish thousand up from the current top and that might be the next potential leg up. Let me know your thoughts on that. The daily chart has been very lit to say the least. And the pump pump continues zooming out from there. Let's entertain. Next, the weekly chart. Looking here it looks like 1, 2, 3. We had three green candles in a row and then we had a corrective red and for this week we're in. It's currently Thursday. We get the weekly close on Sunday in a few more days. Thus far so good as we continue to inch higher and higher. And FYI, the prior week's close on the weekly chart was the highest of all time and also the same scenario on the monthly. There's Also still the124,000 cup and target in play on the weekly which has been in play for a long time and we already came within striking distance away zooming out on the monthly similar 1, 2, 3. This is the fourth green consecutive candle we have forming and we got a whole nother week left until the end of July, which has been pretty spectacular thus far. But you guys let me know your thoughts where the pretty little bitty likely take us next and I'll read those comments out loud. Let's dive into the next headline here. Famine. It reads, as you can see on your screen, UK company smashes local Bitcoin treasury record with 135 million dollar raise Shout out to the UK, the United Kingdom, that's right, London based AI firm. A lot of these AI firms, they're stacking the biddy Satsuma. That's a pretty dope name by the way. Satsuma tech raised 100 million British pounds which is 135 million USD for the Bitcoin treasury, setting a national record for the Bitcoin treasury raise, according to the Thursday announcement. Satsuma Tech said it has successfully closed the book on the raise materially in excess of the 135 million target. Beautiful. The company expects all committed funds to arrive within the next two weeks and if the full amount is converted into Bitcoin, the purchase would make Satsuma the second largest Bitcoin corporate holder in the UK behind the Smarter Web company which currently number one holding 1600 of the BTC worth 190 million. And also there is Phoenix Digital Assets at second with only 247 BTC valid at 29 million. The planned acquisition may also mark the largest single bitcoin acquisition by a UK company as the Smart accumulated its holdings through multiple transactions. Satsuma could acquire more than half of its total in a single buy. You ain't seen none yet. Satsuma Tech performed the raise through a secured convertible loan note offering sounds like the sailor put with Fortify securities acting as the lead broker for the non US investors in Dawson James securities as mandated broker for the US investors and in the US the raise was a private offering to accredited investors, probably high net worth individuals. The funding will enable us to both accelerate the growth of our business operations as well as position us at the forefront of the London and the Bitcoin community. London for the win about time cuz. All I knew the UK famous for was Peppa Pig. Now they can be famous for Bitcoin adoption with the treasury play Golden Bitcoin and Peppa Pig for the uk this successful capital raise marks a pivotal moment not just for Satsuma but for the London market. Agreed? Agreed. Satsuma Tech runs funds and launched its own bit sensor subnets providing validator nodes and a subnet task marketplace. Bit Answer is a decentralized AI marketplace. Let me know if you ever heard of it or used it. Satsuma Tech builds infrastructure and AI agents for the ecosystem. Satsuma Tech Tau subnets issues alpha tokens that are paired with tau and liquidity pools which are then priced purportedly depending upon the subnet's market value. As the subnet adoption grows, so does the value of the corresponding alpha tokens. Reminds me of Chuck E. Cheese. The announcement comes amid growing institutional interest in crypto treasuries as UK firms increasingly blend digital assets with emerging technologies such as the AI. And if you don't know now you know. We're going to continue with the bitty news because we got so much more to share. Another billion dollars being raised by Bitcoin via Mera, which is the largest bitcoin mining company in the world. Gold Checking out the headline right here. Merit a raise up to a billion for bitcoin and operations via a new debt sale. Following that, Sailor Put, one of the largest publicly traded crypto mining firms, said it intends to offer up to a billion worth of convertible senior notes with a portion of the funds intended for bitcoin purchases. That's right. According to the Wednesday announcement, 850 million of notes will be offered to qualified institutional buyers due in 2032, seven years out. Wowzers. The company will also grant buyers an option to purchase an additional 150 million in principle, bringing the potential total to 1 billion. Up to 50 million of the proceeds is expected to be spent on repurchasing a portion of the existing 1% convertible senior notes due 2026. The remainder will be used to cover the cost of capped call transactions, acquire additional biddies and fun general corporate purposes. The notes will be senior unsecured obligations Amera and will not bear interest. Still, the offer is subject to market and other conditions with no guarantee that the deal will close or on what particular terms. The announcement follows Mera holdings recent completion of a minority acquisition of Two prime, an institutional investment advisor managing 1.75 billion in assets in a deal that significantly increases the amount of the Bitcoin that 2 Prime manages on Mera's behalf. Early June reports revealed the company increased the Bitcoin production by 35 back in May, despite growing mining difficulty and a rising hash rate. Late May reports also revealed Mara holdings annualized mining revenue exceeded 752 million. This marked a new all time high of the bitcoin mining revenue for the company and according to the Bitcoin Treasury's Data, Mara keeps 50,000 BTC in its corporate coffers at as of publication time. This makes the firm the second biggest corporate bitcoin holder after the world's top bitcoin treasury company, which we know IS strategy with 607,000 plus BTC. And speaking of strategy, that's going to be our next topic of conversation. Of course. The announcement also follows late March reports that Merrill holdings is looking to sell up to 2 billion in stock to buy more bitcoin. This episode is brought to you by Indeed.

Blue Book, obviously quoting them here, we're currently intending to use the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes, including the acquisition of the Bitty and for working capital. And if you don't know now, you know better. Ask somebody. Do what I do. There's no telling what a constipated Janet Yellen Yeah, I mean. So here's the latest next headline. Check it. Strategy launches Bitcoin stock pegged at a hundred dollars to increase their treasury to buy more of the btc. That's right. Strategy is launching a new type of stock offering. Raise additional funds for further investment into crypto. Crypto? Bitcoin. Why they say crypto, I don't know. Bitcoin. Michael Saylor Strategy announced plans to conduct the initial offering of 5 million shares of strategies variable rate series a perpetual stretch preferred stock. That's a mouthful. So let's just call it strc. Strategy will use the net proceeds for general corporate purposes including the acquisition of the biddy and working capital as the announcement on Monday. Unlike previous offerings, the STRC stock will accumulate cumulative dividends at a variable rate and on the stand amount of a hundred dollars per share. The initial monthly regular dividend will be 9% annually. The announcement comes two weeks after Strategy announced a 4.2 billion at the market offering on July 7, which functions as an equity raising mechanism designed to enable the firm to sell newly issued shares to buy more of the btz. Now here's the official announcement from the Gigachad. Strategy is offering the STRZ and a new perpetual preferred stock via the ipo. So my understanding is he just has infinite ways to figure out to buy more Bitcoin. Hence why on the magazine was it Forbes they featured him as the Bitcoin alchemist he truly is. He can create Bitcoin out of thin air. If Anyone can hold 22 million bitcoin, I bet you it's this guy. I'm just saying. I digress. The new offering will be available through the initial public offering to select investors. According to Sailor, Strategy's new offering aims to adjust the money regular dividend rate per annum annual annum in such manner Strategy believes designed to cause the STRC stock to trade at prices are close to the hundred dollars per share. This mechanism makes the STRC stock akin to a new financial life form optimized to convert Fiat into Bitcoin at Velocity. According to Adam Livingston. Quoting him here, Strategy can tweak the rate each month and keep STRC trading near 100 per synthetic stable coin. With a yield, you're not buying stock, you're buying a yield targeted bitcoin conduit. Interesting. Why don't you just buy bitcoin, guys? At this point this mechanism will enable Strategy to attract Fiat via yield and dollar cost average into the biddy. The new stock offering was announced Shortly after strategy boss 740 million with the Bitcoin on Monday at an average price of 119000 per coin signaling more confidence in Bitcoin's price trajectory. Bitcoin focused treasury companies like Strategy and Meta Planet may drive bitcoin to become 100 trillion market opportunity. Damn straight. And according to Adam Back block stream and inventor of the hash Cash. He says a sustainable scalable 1 to 200 trillion trade front running hyper bitcoinization scalable enough for most big list of companies to move to the bitcoin Treasury. Yeah Strategy for the win Michael Saylor for the win. Bitcoiners for the win. So Sailor, if you're watching go home and get your shine box. Just saying the next headline. As you can see Strategy expands preferred stock offering a 2 billion amid a Bitcoin fuel rally according to the latest report. And they do officially have 607770 BTC. That's why you can't short your dork. We can't afford that Business intelligence firm turn Bitcoin treasury company strategy has reportedly increased the preferred stock offering to 2 billion up from the previous plan 500 million. That's a 4x as it continues raising capital to fund additional Bitcoin purchases. I expect nothing less from the Bitcoin alchemists. The Series A perpetual stretch prefer shares were priced at 90 bucks each and then there's a initial dividend of 9%. This update comes days after Bloomberg revealed the preferred equity sale which at the time expected to be marked marketed between 90 and $95 per share. The stock has rallied now 37 year to date and over 146 in the last 12 months. Let me know if any of you guys have any exposure to any micro strategy related stock pushing the company's market cap 216 billion. Want to know something crazy? Back in 2020 when Sailor decided to adopt Bitcoin and do the first Bitcoin publicly traded company play, his company was only worth 400 million. He described it as the melting ice cube because his cash was dwindling, you know obviously due to inflation. And now his company from 2020 market cap 400 million is now 116 billion five years later. All thanks to the BT. See and if you don't know now you know. MSCR significantly outperformed both the S P index and the information technology sector, each of which has gained roughly 17 over the past year according to Fidelity. It is no surprise Strategy share price moved in tandem with a bitty which has set multiple records. But I still think Bitcoin is up more this year than strategy since someone confirmed that, let me know in the chat. The rally has been fueled by surging institutional interest through the spot ETFs, growing regulatory approval and rising corporate treasury demand as well as statewide adoption. We have national, you know, adoption countries around the world. Even the United States of America has bitcoin executive order. And again, Cynthia Lummis is proposing Trump to purchase 1 million bitcoin for the United States. And as you know, Trump just front ran the US with a 2 billion dollar buy which was our most recent episode. And I want to read this to you here developing Senator Lummis's bill for the US who acquire 1 million of the Bitcoin headed to the floor. That's nearly 5% of the supply and if you don't have yours yet, best of luck. Hopefully you're able to front run the US and not get left behind on that one. So you can tell, yeah, I mean Trump to go home, get shine box. Just saying. Strategy remains the largest corporate holder as we know by a wide margin. According to the industry Data, the top 100 publicly traded Bitcoin treasury companies collectively hold 917599 BTC in total. All companies combined own 908. Yep, that's what we just said. So virtually all pretty amazing. Close to a million. But that doesn't include like BlackRock. BlackRock alone has over 700,000 of the BTC. So just between two companies, for example Black Rock and Micro Strategy, they have close to 1.4 million bitcoin. And if you really fathom how crazy that is, two companies is pretty mind boggling. And they're not slowing down. They're going to continue like a snowball effect. Yeah, I mean. All right fam. Now for the feature story of the day. Bitcoin treasury fever grows in Japan as a AI company targets a 3000 BTC buy as the bitcoin hash war continues all around the world. As you can see right here. So let's break this baby down. Japan doing big things. Japanese publicly listed AI company Quantum Solutions said it plans to create a Bitcoin treasury of 3,000 BTC within the next year. An investment of more than $350 million at the current prices. According to the Thursday announcement, Quantum Solutions Bitcoin treasury will be managed by wholly owned Hong Kong subsidiary GP T PAL Studio Limited the subsidiary will commence operations with the initial investment of $10 million provided by the international investment firm Integrated Asset Management. Per the announcement, the company views Bitcoin as a long term strategic reserve instrument Facts Quantum Solutions plans to pursue the 3,000 bitcoin reserve target in stages depending upon the market conditions, capital availability and the regulatory environment. According to Google Finance data, Quantum Solutions market cap stands at 23 billion yen, which is just under 159 million USD. The firm stock dipped 9% today.

Another one blasted this and another one and another one Bitcoin Treasury Company in addition to accumulating Bitcoin, we intend to do so with the institutional grade discipline of a Shaolin Monk. We we are in advanced discussions with the top tier asset managers, sovereign wealth allocators and fintech leaders to scale our treasury roadmap reasonably and rapidly. Quantum is the latest Japanese company to follow the footsteps of Meta Planet, which was the first Japanese company to do so and is currently the top holder over in Japan doing big plays following in the Sailor Put following the Sailor playbook. Earlier in the week we also had Kitabo 80 year old company publicly listed in Japan, primarily involved in textbook styles and recycling. Also announced plans to purchase 800 million Japanese Yen which is 5.6 million USD of the Bitcoin for the company reserve. And earlier in the month another Tokyo based energy company, Remix point raised about 215 million to expand the bitcoin treasury.

There's new bitcoin treasury companies being birthed practically every day now. These AI companies, it's really trippy because the future is going to be AI collecting bitcoin. So us humans got to compete with the AI to stack the stats accordingly. Which is a reminder, do not sell. You may not ever be able to buy back again.
