BTC dey pull back afta e fail to hold di $79,000–$80,000 range, and di $80,000 breakeven area fit trigger profit-taking—so near-term downside risk dey focus. But negative 7-day perpetual funding (-0.13%) show say shorts dey pay longs, we fit turn dips into squeeze if spot demand hold above di breakeven cluster. With Fed/ECB decisions and big US tech earnings wey dey come, di likely near-term regime na higher volatility and path dependency: BTC direction go depend more on whether spot fit sustain above di breakeven zone than on current momentum alone.
