The Suits Are Stacking, the Printer’s Pumping, and Bitcoin Wants ATHs

In partnership with

Hey DegenDen,

Hope you're well-rested after the long week, because this market definitely didn’t take any days off.

Bitcoin brushed $110K, suits started panic-buying sats, and Congress promised to run the money printer hotter than your uncle’s grill at a summer BBQ.

Crypto's looking like it's finally ready to break the endless cycle of fake-outs, but we've been rugged before.

Let’s unpack it.

🧃 THE JUICE (a.k.a. THE RUNDOWN)

• BTC’s Tease & Chill: Bitcoin hit $110,000 before cooling to $107,733 (-1.3%). Ethereum ($2,503) and Solana ($146.65) took a breather too. Healthy pullback or just calm before another storm? Stay alert.

• Stablecoins Get Washington’s Greenlight: The GENIUS Act breezed through the Senate, legitimizing stablecoins as regulated financial products. Circle and Ripple are already lining up national bank charters. TradFi just went crypto.

• Solana’s ETF Splash: America’s first spot Solana ETF (SSK) launched with a bang: $33M in first-day volume and a tasty 7.3% staking yield. Institutions have officially caught altcoin fever.

• Robinhood’s Stock Tokens: Trust Issues Edition: Robinhood dropped tokenized stocks without actual equity rights—prompting OpenAI to distance itself publicly. It’s Robinhood, folks; always read the fine print.

• Vitalik Brings the Real Talk: Ethereum’s founding wizard, Vitalik Buterin, warned the community about losing sight of decentralization and real-world use. Someone had to say it.

🎯 MAIN EVENT: The Corporate Treasury Bitcoin Boom

We used to joke about suits panic-buying Bitcoin. Turns out, the joke’s on us. Corporations are stacking sats at an unprecedented rate. Bitcoin isn’t just digital gold anymore, it’s the new corporate treasury standard.

Remember Michael Saylor, our favorite Bitcoin evangelist? Well, he's no longer alone. MicroStrategy sits on nearly 600,000 BTC, but the line of copycats is getting crowded:

• Japan’s Metaplanet scooped another 1,005 BTC.

• Canada’s fintech darling, Mogo, saw its stock explode 140% after unveiling their BTC reserves.

• Anthony Pompliano (Pomp) is raising a billion-dollar Bitcoin treasury fund.

• Add newcomers like American Bitcoin Corp. and The Smarter Web Company, and suddenly public companies control over 4% of Bitcoin’s total supply.

Even ETFs are vacuuming up sats, BlackRock’s juggernaut now holds nearly 700,000 BTC. Institutional bags are growing at warp speed, quietly eating up almost 7% of Bitcoin’s supply.

Why now?

Check Washington: the ironically named "One Big Beautiful Bill" promises another $3 trillion pumped into the economy, atop an already staggering global money supply of $113 trillion. Inflation's no longer a meme… it's policy.

Corporations finally get it.

Holding cash is watching your wealth melt.

Bitcoin isn’t speculation anymore; it’s defense. Institutions aren’t buying BTC for quick flips, they're accumulating strategically, methodically, relentlessly.

Our Take:

This isn’t your 2021 FOMO-fueled pump-and-dump.

This is the quiet, relentless buying pressure of smart money, front-running retail.

Sure, price might feel choppy, but zoom out: big money’s stacking quietly. Bitcoin at $110K isn’t just a nice round number, it's a warning shot that institutions aren't here to play games. They're here to win them.

📊 MARKET WATCH

• 🟠 BTC: $107,733 (-1.3%) – Cooling, consolidating, ready?

• 🔵 ETH: $2,503 (-2.7%) – Catching its breath.

• 🔥 SOL: $146.65 (-2.4%) – ETF-fueled optimism holding strong.

• 🌊 XRP: $2.10 (-1.0%) – Quietly waiting for the next move.

• 🟡 BNB: $647.00 (-0.1%) – Stable and quiet (for now).

FINAL THOUGHTS

Retail investors might’ve sparked Bitcoin’s early fires, but institutions are now pouring gasoline.

The world’s largest pools of capital finally understand Bitcoin's purpose: an inflation hedge against a world addicted to money printing.

Stay alert, degens. The next big move may be closer than you think.

That’s your week. Institutions are front-running us, cash is trash, and Bitcoin's price action just got serious.

Stay sharp, stay suspicious and maybe check your employer’s balance sheet for some hidden sats.

Catch you next week,

Dr. P & the DegenDen Team
