76K Holding, FOMC Tomorrow, SBR within Weeks
The policy kitchen is plating the most structurally bullish meal in BTC's history. The chart is still reading the menu.
White House confirmed the SBR is getting a "big announcement within weeks." Strategy dropped $2.54B at $76K prices at the conference. BTC is down less than 1% today, frozen in FOMC wait mode.
TODAY'S BOARD
BTC $76,971 (-0.81%) — Three-day slow bleed; $342 buffer at the $76,100 breakout level
ETH $2,290 (-0.92%) — $2,300 base broken; next floor $2,262
Primary Risk — FOMC Tomorrow — Decision April 29 ~18:00 UTC — next move decided here
TODAY'S JOB
Don't confuse the structural story with a short-term signal. FOMC tomorrow decides whether the chart survives long enough to price the SBR.

Core Setup — The Policy Train Is Leaving the Station. The Chart Doesn't Know Yet.
The last 48 hours served up the richest policy platter in BTC's history: SBR "big announcement within weeks," ARMA legislation to buy 1 million BTC budget-neutral, the Clarity Act heading to May Senate markup, and Strategy deploying $2.54B at $76K prices — 815,061 BTC total, largest publicly disclosed stack on the planet.
Now look at the chart. BTC at $76,971. Three days of lower highs and lower lows. $342 from the critical $76,100 breakout level. The market is pricing the 24-hour FOMC binary, not the 30-day SBR announcement. FOMC decides direction first — dovish lands a relief rally, hawkish puts $76,100 under live fire. Both timelines are running simultaneously.
