The Setup for a Massive Q4 Bitcoin Rally Is Here

Summary

David Duong joins John Gillen to break down Bitcoin's breakout above $72K and the macro setup into Q4. Duong argues Bitcoin's bottom is already in and expects a sustained rally starting late Q3 or early Q4, with BTC above $100K by year-end. He sees the rally as discount and momentum rather than a new debasement trade, and expects selective altcoin strength led by quality assets like Ethereum and event-driven names like Hyperliquid. He also views long-end Treasury yields as having peaked and does not expect a Fed rate hike.

• Duong says Bitcoin likely bottomed between $55K and $60K and that ETF inflows are returning.

• Altcoin strength is expected to be selective, favoring quality assets like Ethereum.
• Hyperliquid is highlighted as a regulation-driven setup after its White House mention.
