Core Setup — Institutional Gluttony Meets Geopolitical Relief
The U.S. military just served up a massive plate of relief for the markets. By announcing "Project Freedom" to guide commercial vessels through the Strait of Hormuz, they took the geopolitical risk premium right off the table. BTC took one look at the de-escalation, grabbed the menu from the bears, and ran a tab all the way up past $80,000.
But the real story is in the kitchen. Institutional demand is currently running at 500% of the available liquid supply. Wall Street isn't just nibbling; they are unhinging their jaws and swallowing every coin on the market. When you pair an aggressive supply shock with a sudden drop in macro fear, you get the exact explosive recipe we saw yesterday.
