Strategy founder Michael Saylor posted “Working ₿etter” on X, hinting that he may buy Bitcoin again.

X KOL Selected Views

Phyrex Ni (@Phyrex_Ni):「May ended amid the US-Iran entanglement, and although $BTC didn’t break below $70,000 the way many friends expected, it’s still impossible to see complete reconciliation between geopolitical conflicts even now. That leaves cryptocurrencies without independent narratives still having a tough time, while over there, US stocks can keep rallying for a bit thanks to AI. And just as bad for Bitcoin is oil prices.」

「Even though oil prices have already fallen from above $100 to below $90, it’s still relatively high for the world—especially for US inflation. Cutting $10 is still not enough; what’s needed is for WTI to return to below $70 so that the rise in inflation is suppressed. But even to this day, the Strait of Hormuz still hasn’t given a clear answer.」

「I’m not worried about oil prices falling. But I’m still worried that if June still can’t lead to a big drop in oil prices, the first appearance by Voss could be rather awkward. On one hand, he needs to follow Trump’s rate-cut strategy. On the other, facing high inflation, he can’t choose to cut rates. Especially in June, there’ll also be a mosaic chart, which may make the market even more tangled.」

「I hope the US-Iran issue can be resolved before the World Cup, which would help ease inflation. If it can’t be resolved by the World Cup, things will just take longer.」

「Coming back to the Bitcoin data, there hasn’t been too much volatility over the weekend, and turnover isn’t high either. Most investors are still living pretty leisurely lives. After all, $BTC ’s price is still tied to US macro, politics, and the economy. As long as the US hasn’t encountered real problems, Bitcoin’s downside impact won’t be very big.」
