Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Dogecoin Continue To Struggle As Geopolitical Tensions Rise

Trader Notes: Crypto trader Mags shared a simple, yet effective Bitcoin strategy based on the halving cycle:
“Buy Bitcoin 500 days before the halving, hold without interference, and sell 500 days after the halving.” This cyclical approach has historically yielded strong results and offers a low-maintenance method for long-term investors.

Javon Marks emphasized that Bitcoin's price increase appears "borderline technically coded," referencing the inherent bullish dynamics built into Bitcoin's supply structure and halving mechanics.

He argues that historical trends and chart patterns suggest upside is practically embedded in BTC's design.

As Bitcoin showed signs of recovery from recent declines, trader Follis reiterated his earlier forecast, affirming confidence in a rebound.

Trader Cryptomist noted that while broader market sentiment remained bearish, her long position is now in profit with stop-losses secured. She believes Bitcoin is nearing her first target zone, adding weight to the bullish short-term thesis.
