Q2 of 2022 appears promising for the wider crypto market after a tumultuous start in 2022.
America Can’t Ignore Crypto
Bitcoin ($BTC) did not chart a massive green candle to breach the crucial $41k mark, it inched slowly. It is a sign that buyers are not rushing in because they are consumed with the Fear of Missing Out (FOMO). It is more of a cautious and calculated move, which is what the market needs. https://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?type=text%2Fhtml&key=96f1f04c5f4143bcb0f2e68c87d65feb&schema=twitter&url=https%3A//twitter.com/saylor/status/1505218778484944903&image=https%3A//abs.twimg.com/errors/logo46x38.png
Bitcoin is fast becoming illiquid. In the past, miners will supply exchanges with newly minted Bitcoins. This creates a supply-demand dynamic that could sometimes lead to some manipulation by miners. Whilst some observers may think that miners will not be able to dictate the pace of Bitcoin’s price because most of the coins in circulation are already mined.
There are a few factors that will drive $BTC past its previous all-time high.
Bitcoin supply shock
Over leveraged short positions
Strong adoption fundamentals
Bitcoin has moved past the $38k – $39k band, which is a band where most purchases are made. This is an indicator that purchasers are treating $38k as a bottom or support. According to Plan C, $38k – $39k is the new $3k – $4k.
The world now awaits America to make the big move. A proper and structured framework to regulate cryptos. This is likely the final piece of the puzzle that will spark massive institutional investments. Can America ignore Bitcoin? The answer is yes, but she will have to pay a heavy price if she decides to do so.
When Bitcoin broke past $41k, it can be interpreted as a signal that the accumulation phase is complete.

Coins to Watch
Terra ($LUNA) – Terraform Labs has outlined its plans to accumulate $10 billion of Bitcoin for its stablecoin’s reserves.
This means two things. First, Bitcoin’s price will face even more upward pressure. Secondly, $UST’s risk of de-pegging during massing dips is significantly reduced.
$UST has just successfully become the most attractive and transparent stablecoin to own without any fear of a crypto market crash.
$UST is not an investable asset, but $LUNA is. $LUNA is burned to mint $UST.
$LUNA is an attractive investment proposition because this asset has potential upswings in both the bear and the bull market.

$BNB has its utility as an exchange token. Hodlers are incentivized to store $BNB for trading fee discounts.

Projects are launching on BNB Chain because of efforts taken to improve the chain’s speed, fees, scalability.
