Billionaires, Bitcoin, and the Fed: How Michael Saylor Sneezes and the Market Catches a Cold

by

In a world where gold has grown too heavy for bourgeois pockets and dollars rot in dusty banks, Michael Saylor lurches forward, grinning, drenched in the sweat of capitalism. With hands unyielding and an eyebrow permanently arched in defiance, he grabs the steering wheel of destiny. Saylor’s insatiable appetite? Bitcoin. Yes, again—he’s doubled down with the intensity of a Dostoyevskian gambler, acquiring 15,355 BTC for $1.42 billion at $92,737 apiece. His April routine? Another mad dance: $555.8 million poured in at $84,785/BTC, followed by another spritz—$285.8 million at $82,618/BTC. YTD yield a princely 13.7%—oh, how the proletariat could dream! Meanwhile, Bitcoin hovers at $96k—a beast pacing before the Fed’s great May 7 gathering. Chess pieces or sheep, we wait with bated breath.

Bitcoin: Chart Reading or Chekhov’s Gun?

Every peasant and pauper reads the runes—or rather, glances at the garish glow of the daily chart. An old fortune-teller whispers: whenever the 1-day RSI slithers above 70, bulls begin to stampede, and the price soars—40% to 70% within a moon’s cycle. The cards are on the table. May 3: the 70-mark glimpsed. Is this the last waltz below $100k, or simply another rehearsal for financial farce? Place your bets, comrades! The house always wins…

Beyond the charts, fate laughs: will Bitcoin’s wild ascent outlast our patience—or is it merely the subject to the next wave of central banker somnambulism? Trump’s trade war lumbers into the room, swinging a rusty shovel at the wallpaper. Everyone pretends not to notice.

Winds from Above: Macro Buffoonery

  1. Fed Meeting Looms—A Comedy in One Act (May 7)
    • The oracles (CME FedWatch) mutter: 97.2% chance nothing happens. Rates stay put at 425-450 bps. The suspense is almost as thrilling as stale cabbage soup.
    • Risks and Rewards:
      • Should the Fed speak sweetly and dovishly, Bitcoin might break loose and pirouette toward $100k. 🎉
      • If the Fed growls hawkishly, this digital beast could trip, tumbling to $92.2k like a vodka-soaked poet. A deeper fall and we may find it huddled at $88k or $85.4k, muttering about better days.

  1. DXY: Dollar Languishes (and Nobody Cries)
    • The once-mighty Dollar Index (DXY) shrivels, down nearly 11% in 100 days, clinging at 100.036. Should it dare to dream at 100.820? Expect rejection down to 91—talk about an inferiority complex!
    • Even the April Nonfarm Payrolls couldn’t trip it further down the stairs. But if the Fed brings down the velvet rope, Bitcoin may soar again on the wings of faltering fiat.
  1. When Giants Feast: Institutional Frenzy
    • The Spot Bitcoin ETF slurped up $4 billion since March 25—a liquidity parade only Wall Street could orchestrate.
    • Add MicroStrategy’s latest feast: 25,370 BTC for $2.44 billion. Saylor dines while the rest of us gnaw at stale bread.

The Battlefield: BTC’s Critical Lines

With Nonfarm Payrolls gone and the Fed’s thunderclouds gathering, anticipation fizzles in the air. Clutch your hats, ladies and gents—here’s where the blood will spill or the riches shall rain:

Resistance barricades:

  • $108k (the fabled all-time high—just above the clouds. Or maybe a mirage?)
  • $100k (the number your Uber driver keeps talking about!)

Support trenches:

  • $92k to $93k (the safety net for optimists)
  • $88.4k (the couch cushion where lost change turns up)
  • $85.8k (only the brave venture here… and sometimes regret it)

The foreboding oracle declares: so long as Saylor buys and the Fed sighs, the bullish spirit lingers—visions of $100k+ haunt 2025. But be cautious. Bitcoin, like any good revolutionary, may zigzag, march in circles, or abscond entirely before you blink. 🎩🚬
