✨️💫 Bitcoin hit $58,100, its lowest level since September 2024 — before bouncing to ~$59,700 as crypto closes its worst half-year since 2022. Bitcoin finished H1 down 32%, Ether down 47%, and three consecutive quarterly losses now matching the Terra/FTX year. The Russell rebalancing, $30B pension selling, and $10.6B options expiration all collided at Friday's close — the most mechanically complex year-end session.

STRC has collapsed 27% below par to $73, Strategy shares are 85% below their November 2024 ATH, and Tether briefly overtook Ether as the second-largest crypto by market cap. One signal worth noting: Bitcoin's $58,000–$60,000 zone has held every test so far — and the H2 recovery thesis depends entirely on that zone holding once again.
