Bailey, who also serves as governor of the Bank of England, said the Middle East conflict has already…

While macroeconomic pressure continues weighing on risk assets, a detailed BTC/USD chart analysis points to a powerful trend developing beneath the surface – buyers are methodically compressing price beneath key moving averages, preparing a launchpad for a move toward $93,500. The main intrigue lies in the strategic dominance of bulls across higher TradingView timeframes despite an increasingly hostile macro backdrop. Bitcoin has now closed above the Bollinger Bands midline (20-week SMA) for a fourth consecutive week – the official dividing line between bullish and bearish trends. The ability to hold this support for an entire month proves that large players…
