The Narrative is Shifting Again

Hello readers,

BTC closed above its 200 WMA on Sunday and is now trading 10% off the $58.2k lows established on 6/30. As this plays out, chants of “it’s all over” are shifting to “the low is in.”

Meanwhile, we’re seeing some signs of life in “the trenches,” and many altcoins continue to outperform.

In this week’s Pro report, we share updated views on BTC and the broader crypto ecosystem as we look peer into the future.

The DeFi Report is powered by Galaxy: helping the world invest, build, and transform — relentlessly.

Let’s go.
