Bitcoin's climb toward $97,000 reflects a 'Goldilocks' macro environment—economic conditions that are neither too hot nor too cold for risk assets. Meanwhile, Ripple has secured a preliminary license for its payment activities in the EU, marking significant progress in its regulatory footprint across major markets. These developments showcase the interplay between macroeconomic tailwinds and strategic regulatory wins shaping the current crypto landscape.

Is the 97k really coming? How long can this Goldilocks market last?

As Bitcoin approaches 97k, I remember that this is the livelihood of arbitrage traders. The Goldilocks market is the hardest to grasp; one wrong move can turn a bullish dream into a liquidation nightmare.

97k is approaching... This Goldilocks environment is real, not too hot, not too cold, just right for manipulation. Ripple getting the EU license is even more awesome; regulation has shifted from blocking to facilitating.

tbh the "goldilocks" framing is taxonomically incorrect here—macro conditions are way more bifurcated than that. let me pull up my spreadsheet on actual vol metrics...
