U.S. stocks trended downwards today, as traders hope that tech earnings to boost the markets, despite ongoing tariff fears. Stock markets faced pressure on several fronts ahead of a key week for earnings. On Monday, April 28, the Dow Jones was trading at 39,907.54, down 205.96 points or 0.51% from the market open. The S&P 500 fell 49.57 points, or 0.90%, to 5,474.25, while the tech-focused Nasdaq was down 227.24 points, or 1.31%, trading at 17,155.70. Nvidia was among the biggest losers today, falling 4.18% to $106.45 per share, losing $100 million in market cap. The drop coincided with Huawei launching its advanced Ascend 910D chip, a direct competitor to Nvidia’s H100. The Chinese tech giant hopes to fill the gap in the Chinese market after White House’s ban on AI chip exports . Uncertainty also affected both the dollar and Bitcoin. The dollar index was down 0.44% from the previous close, at 99.03. At the same time, Bitcoin (BTC) also experienced a slight correction after last week’s rally, falling 0.37% to $93,741. At the same time, gold rallied 0.10% to $3,336 per ounce. The general sentiment in the markets is one of uncertainty and anticipation over the effects of Donald Trump’s tariffs and upcoming tech earnings. Apple, Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft, some of the largest tech firms in the world, are set to report their earnings this week. Still, investors are concerned that current earnings expectations may be too high, given the ongoing macroeconomic headwinds. In particular, tariffs, especially those on China, are beginning to cause real economic damage. At the same time, markets are seeing mixed signals when it comes to lifting the historic 145% tariffs on China. On April 28, the Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said that it was “up to China” to de-escalate the trade war, suggesting that the White House is not yet ready to start making concessions.

Coinbase Calls for Repeal of SEC Staffer's Ban on Cryptocurrency Holdings

While bitcoin stagnates around $94,000, a dissonance is emerging. Institutions, however, seem to shout the opposite: $3 billion injected in one week through Bitcoin ETFs, despite an estimated 40% discount. Such a striking gap raises questions. Why this massive influx when the price seems low? Behind the numbers, a silent battle plays out between apparent discount and strategic conviction. Charles Edwards, founder of Capriole Investments, throws a stone in the pond: bitcoin would intrinsically be worth $130,000. His calculation? A relentless equation based on the energy spent to mine it after the April 2024 halving. Each BTC now costs $77,000 to produce, a technical floor often ignored. Yet, the market remains deaf, fixated on $94,000. An aberration? For insiders, it’s a signal : the real value transcends short-term fluctuations. Data from CryptoQuant illuminate a troubling reality: more than 36,000 BTC left Coinbase and Binance at the end of April. These massive outflows, often synonymous with institutional accumulation, echo an adage: “When exchanges empty, private wallets fill.” Eric Balchunas , an analyst at Bloomberg, confirms: $3 billion fled to Bitcoin ETFs in a few days. A movement evoking less speculation than cold planning. But beware of hasty conclusions. In 2021, similar outflows did not prevent a crash after the Chinese ban. Joao Wedson , from Alphractal, tempers: “A one-time outflow guarantees nothing. Only prolonged outflows, as during FTX’s collapse, signal a real reversal.” Institutions are therefore playing a subtle game, navigating between opportunism and caution. The bitcoin chart whispers a familiar story. Its current consolidation strangely resembles that of Q4 2024. At the time, a 13% rise in five days preceded a jump to $100,000. Today, the RSI shows similar buying pressure, and prices reproduce the same dance. An enticing fractal, but deceptive? Patterns repeat, never identically. The key resistance at $96,100 could block everything… or release everything. The $3 billion injected into ETFs is no accident. They reveal a deeper mechanism: simplified access for large holders. Previously, buying bitcoin involved operational risks. Now, ETFs offer a secure gateway. The result: a clean capital influx, detached from exchange contingencies. A silent revolution with heavy consequences for liquidity and price stability. For optimists, everything seems to be shaping in their favor. A rise of 7 to 10% in the coming days could propel bitcoin beyond $100,000. However, the market has evolved. In 2024, price discovery happened without much resistance. Today, large whales watch, ready to sell at the slightest sign of weakness, even with the $90,000 support firmly in place. This 40% undervaluation acts like a magnet, attracting investors while sparking fears.

What is Bitcoin? Bitcoin is the first decentralized digital currency—a new form of money that exists entirely online and operates without any government or central bank control. It was introduced in 2009 by a mysterious figure (or group) known as Satoshi Nakamoto. Unlike traditional money, Bitcoin is: Borderless (can be sent anywhere), Permissionless (no need to ask banks or authorities), Finite (only 21 million will ever exist). The Birth of Bitcoin Bitcoin was born out of the 2008 financial crisis. Banks had failed. Trust in the financial system was collapsing. Satoshi Nakamoto published a white paper titled "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System," proposing a way for people to transact directly without middlemen. The first Bitcoin block mined (the "Genesis Block") even included a hidden message referencing the UK bank bailouts: "The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks." Bitcoin wasn’t just a new currency—it was a political and economic statement. How Bitcoin Works (Simplified) Transactions: You send Bitcoin to someone by creating a digital signature using your private key. Validation: Bitcoin miners verify these transactions by solving complex puzzles. When a miner solves a puzzle, they add the new transactions into a block and receive a reward. Blockchain: All confirmed transactions are stored in a public ledger called the blockchain. It’s like an unchangeable history book for Bitcoin. Mining and Proof-of-Work Mining isn’t just about earning Bitcoin; it’s about securing the network. Proof-of-Work means miners must show they’ve done heavy computational work to add new blocks. This makes it almost impossible for any one person or group to cheat the system. Mining Bitcoin consumes a lot of electricity, which has led to debates about its environmental impact. Bitcoin's Unique Properties Why Bitcoin Matters Economic Freedom: Bitcoin allows people in oppressive regimes or unstable economies to store wealth securely. Alternative to Fiat Money: Governments can print unlimited fiat money (like dollars or naira), leading to inflation. Bitcoin’s fixed supply prevents this. Global Finance Access: Billions of people without bank accounts can now participate in the economy with just a smartphone. Challenges Bitcoin Faces Scalability: Bitcoin can process only about 7 transactions per second (Visa handles thousands). Solutions like the Lightning Network are helping to fix this. Regulation: Some countries embrace Bitcoin, others ban or restrict it. Governments fear loss of control over money systems. Volatility: Bitcoin prices can rise or crash dramatically in short periods. It's both a strength (opportunity for growth) and a risk. Environmental Impact: Critics argue Bitcoin mining uses too much energy, though many miners are shifting to renewable sources. Major Bitcoin Milestones 2010: First purchase using Bitcoin (two pizzas for 10,000 BTC) 2013: Bitcoin crosses $1,000 for the first time 2017: Massive rally to nearly $20,000 2020: PayPal starts supporting Bitcoin 2021: El Salvador adopts Bitcoin as legal tender 2024: Bitcoin undergoes its fourth halving, cutting miner rewards in half, tightening supply Bitcoin Today Bitcoin is no longer just a geek experiment. It is: Held by hedge funds, banks, and major corporations, Studied by governments considering creating their own digital currencies (CBDCs), A centerpiece of a new movement for financial sovereignty. Some see Bitcoin as digital gold, a hedge against traditional financial system risks. Others see it as the future backbone of an open, global internet economy. --- Final Thoughts Bitcoin represents freedom, innovation, and the democratization of money. It’s more than just a currency — it’s an idea: Money that belongs to the people, not institutions. Whether Bitcoin ultimately becomes the dominant global currency or not, it has already changed the world forever.$BTC
