Bitcoin Just Changed the Picture

Bitcoin Just Changed the Picture

Author: Matt Diemer August 26, 2026 Duration: 5:28

Craig says Bitcoin’s 26% weekly move changed the higher-timeframe picture. After weeks of frustrating sideways action, the three-month and six-month charts are now showing structures that have historically appeared near the end of major selling periods. He is not calling the exact bottom, but he believes the market is giving stronger evidence that the next major trend could be higher, especially as ETFs and digital-asset treasury companies change the structure of this cycle. 


The episode also explains why Craig was never committed to an October low, how he uses both time and price when evaluating long-term Bitcoin entries, and why he prefers capturing the middle of a trend rather than trying to perfectly buy the bottom or sell the top.
