☀  The Read

Where the chart sits — description, not prediction

Bitcoin is trading above both its 50-day ($73.2K) and 200-day ($70.5K) averages — the longer-term trend reads as up. Over the past 30 days it has traded between $75.6K and $81.3K; today's price sits in the upper third of that range. RSI(14) is 50 — momentum is roughly neutral.

Crypto 101

What is dollar-cost averaging?

Investing a fixed amount on a fixed schedule regardless of price. It removes timing decisions and emotion — buying more units when prices are low, fewer when high.

“Bitcoin's supply is capped at 21 million. That's the whole pitch in one sentence.”
