Yesterday, when Bitcoin re touched $91,000, the market indeed showed some interesting signs. Although the price seemed to be heading upward, the overall market sentiment remained cautious, with many waiting to see how the situation unfolds.



The chain of recent geopolitical events' impact is worth reviewing. First, the spillover to traditional markets—Venezuela's oil exports have fallen into paralysis, which will push up oil prices in the short term and raise inflation expectations. Sounds like good news, but the problem is that once major oil companies step into this market, in the long run, production recovery could actually suppress prices. This repeated tug-of-war directly amplifies volatility in traditional finance, and some funds are beginning to cautiously explore the crypto assets sector.

The real market-moving intelligence is still hidden in rumors. The Venezuelan crypto reserves—used allegedly to evade sanctions—amounting to about $60 billion, if this figure is accurate, could trigger chain reactions far beyond any market news once control changes hands. Don't forget, last year, about 80% of Venezuela's oil revenue was settled in USDT, a detail that indicates blockchain assets have already been quietly transforming their role in the real economy.

From a policy perspective, undercurrents are surging. The current US administration's relatively open attitude toward the crypto industry can be seen from recent investments by a major accounting firm. More importantly, the US Senate may push forward a new digital asset market structure bill next week, which could truly alter the mid-term market landscape.

My logic is clear: geopolitical conflicts are just a passing breeze; they can cause short-term price fluctuations but won't change the market's inherent rhythm. The total market cap of crypto has just re-claimed $3 trillion, but if you look closely at trading activity, it has been declining for several weeks. This indicates that big players are still watching and not truly betting. Don't be scared or tempted by daily price swings.

Next, focus on two things: first, the latest official statement today regarding the "legendary" Venezuelan crypto assets; will there be an official confirmation? Second, the progress of the US digital asset bill next week. Until these two key points become clear, there's no need to rush into all-in positions. The market works this way—when information is asymmetric, the most dangerous thing is often overconfidence in decision-making.

600B in dark reserves transmuting behind the veil... if venezuela's really holding that much, the liquidity spells are about to get VERY interesting. question is who's brewing this alpha—the shadows or the law? ngl, watching protocol arbitrage unfold through geopolitical alchemy hits different.

Big players are still watching the show; as retail investors, let's not follow the trend. --- If the 60 billion figure is real, who knows when it might crash down. --- The bill moving forward next week will be the real turning point. --- Feeling like 91,000 is just a trap; it's not that simple. --- The detail that Venezuela settles in USDT has long indicated a problem. --- All-in are gamblers; I prefer to wait for official confirmation before acting. --- The biggest risk of being liquidated is when the information gap is so large. --- Trading volume has been declining for several weeks, indicating the market hasn't truly exploded yet. --- Instead of watching daily ups and downs, focus on those two key points. --- Overconfidence in decision-making is the biggest killer.

Damn, that $60 billion move is really happening, the market will explode. Waiting for official confirmation, don’t get fooled by rumors. Big players are just watching the show, why would you panic? With the current atmosphere, trying to push up at 91,000? Far from enough. The bill is the real killer weapon, the true showdown next week. Trading activity has cooled down, who is really placing bets? People going all-in will have to cut losses this time. The USDT settlement ratio is so high, the crypto world has long been infiltrated. Short-term fluctuations can’t fool me; information gaps are the real key.

Can the 60 billion rumor be realized? That's the real trigger point, right? Wait, if the assets in Venezuela really change hands, we're still early. 91,000 is right there dancing, big players are right there watching the show, understand? Policy is the long-term factor; short-term fluctuations are just smoke and mirrors. Not all-in is a good point, but don't be too cautious either.

Rumors of 60 billion dollars, if it really gets confirmed, that would be a major event. For now, we still need to wait for confirmation. --- So big players are just watching the show, and we retail investors are still debating whether to chase at 91,000? Never mind. --- The bill pushing forward next week is what can truly change the game; geopolitical conflicts are just a smokescreen. --- USDT has become a settlement tool in Venezuela. These details show that crypto is really changing the world. --- Don't go all-in. I agree with that. The market's biggest fear is overconfidence. --- The hype has been continuously declining, indicating that the real main upward wave hasn't arrived yet. --- Once the rumored 60 billion dollars changes ownership, what will happen? That's what I want to know. --- Policy opening is a good thing, but it's still too early to talk about positive impacts. Let's see how the US bill progresses first. --- Even at 91,000 USD, the hype is still falling. This market is a bit surreal.

This 60 billion USDT thing has really happened; now it's just a matter of how the Americans handle it. Right now, it's a gamble on that.

ngl the $60B venezuela rumor is the real vulnerability here—if that actually moves on-chain, we're looking at a potential exploit vector nobody's properly audited yet
