1 Crypto Highlights

1) Bitcoin Near $80,000; Traders Focus on Cycle Scenarios and Support

Bitcoin traded around $79,000–$80,000, while Ethereum also weakened. Some market analysis suggests the pullback may be nearing exhaustion based on prior cycle retracements. Another scenario focuses on a possible test of the $75,000 fair-value gap, followed by levels near $100,000, $126,000, $160,000 and $190,000. These are scenario estimates, not confirmed forecasts; near-term attention remains on support and capital flows.

4) PYTH Leads Major Tokens; Buyback Mechanism Offers Support

PYTH traded near $0.075, up about 5% over 24 hours. The DAO previously approved a rule directing platform product revenue toward monthly token buybacks. Buyback expectations and relative strength have supported PYTH as major tokens weakened, though profit-taking remains a risk.

3) Gold Breaks Below $4,000 as Silver Also Weakens

Gold briefly fell below $4,000, down more than 3% for the week; silver slipped below about $54. Elevated long-bond yields, a stronger dollar and oil-driven inflation and rate concerns reduced precious metals’ safe-haven appeal. Watch how changing rate expectations affect real yields.

4) Energy Holds Up as Brent Reaches About $116.7

Energy led on Friday. Brent rose to about $116.7, a near six-month high, while WTI traded near $103. Supply-disruption concerns and transport risks lifted oil prices and drew attention to energy stocks. Persistently high oil also adds to inflation pressures and weighs on long-duration assets.
