Momentum Is Back
Bitcoin surged to a new all-time high near $117,000 and is now eyeing $120,000. According to George, this breakout was expected, with momentum building over recent weeks. Market conditions show little resistance above current levels, suggesting room to climb higher.

Key Catalysts Behind the Move

Key Highlights:
  • IRS Rule Reversal: The U.S. Treasury and IRS have scrapped a rule requiring decentralized exchanges to report user transactions — a major win for DeFi and privacy.

  • Rate Cut Hints: Fed official Waller signaled potential interest rate cuts in July. Combined with criticism of Fed Chair Powell, there’s increased pressure for looser monetary policy.

  • Massive Institutional Demand: Corporate and institutional Bitcoin buying continues to accelerate. ETF flows, corporate treasury holdings, and strategic buying from firms like BlackRock are reducing supply and pushing prices higher.

Altcoins Joining the Rally
Ethereum is nearing $3,000, and other top alts like Solana, XRP, SUI, and Avalanche are showing strong recoveries. Meme coins such as Doge and Pangu are also seeing renewed activity as excitement returns.

Potential Price Targets

Key Highlights:
  • Short term: $120,000

  • Mid term: $150,000

  • Cycle peak (based on historical models): $184,000 to $200,000

  • Long term (speculative): $1 million by 2027, $5 million by 2031 — if current trends hold and supply tightens.

Global Liquidity & Macro Factors Support Growth
Falling DXY (dollar strength index) and rising global liquidity align with Bitcoin’s historical uptrends. George also notes that virtually every long-term holder is now in profit, which boosts sentiment and reduces selling pressure.

Caution on Leverage
Despite the optimism, there’s concern about excessive long leverage in the market. A potential short-term correction or flash dip is possible if leveraged positions get wiped out.

Alts & Meme Coins Heating Up Projects like Injective, SUI, and even older names like Cardano and Near Protocol are gaining traction. Meme coins are benefiting from renewed energy and may continue to perform well as liquidity returns.

George’s DCA Strategy
George resumed his weekly DCA (dollar-cost averaging) and added:

Key Highlights:
  • SUI (underweight in his portfolio)

  • Jupiter (still early)

  • SEI (growing TVL and adoption)

Outlook on Altcoin Season
True altcoin season may arrive later in the cycle, potentially around October or November, but the current rally is already lifting many names. If Bitcoin continues rising, altcoins are expected to follow.
