Rekt Capital Warns Bitcoin Mirroring 2021 Pattern That Preceded 55% BTC Price Nosedive

3 min read

A widely followed analyst is warning that Bitcoin (BTC) may be mirroring a 2021 bearish pattern that led to a massive collapse in value.

The analyst pseudonymously known as Rekt Capital tells his 562,400 followers on X that Bitcoin is forming a similar macro descending triangle on the monthly chart that preceded a 55% decline in 2021.

“Whenever we see these bases of these triangles take place, they tend to weaken over time. They first establish with the very first over extension. We saw that over extension in 2021 be 100% here. This over extension wasn’t very exuberant, but we saw the rebound that took place afterwards be a little bit more exuberant, but then after that higher high, we just descend into macro lower highs.

That macro lower high taking place, it needs to respect the new found macro downtrend that develops. If this is, indeed, the context of an early stage bear market, then that higher low is going to simply lapse and get invalidated, because we won’t be able to break beyond the macro descending triangle downtrend.”

Looking at his chart, the analysis suggests if Bitcoin drops below the support level around $84,552, which forms the base of the macro descending triangle, it’s likely a confirmation that a deeper correction will occur.

The analyst also says that if Bitcoin breaks out of the descending trendline it would signal a possible bullish reversal.

“Breaking that downtrend, we can become a bit more bullish, but until then, we have more evidence supporting that maybe we’re going to be following 2021.”

Bitcoin is trading at $84,037 at time of writing, down 4.58% on the day.

Cashing In On University Patents Means Giving Up On Our Innovation Future

The post Cashing In On University Patents Means Giving Up On Our Innovation Future appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. “It’s a raid on American innovation that would deliver pennies to the Treasury while kneecapping the very engine of our economic and medical progress,” writes Pipes. Getty Images Washington is addicted to taxing success. Now, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick is floating a plan to skim half the patent earnings from inventions developed at universities with federal funding. It’s being sold as a way to shore up programs like Social Security. In reality, it’s a raid on American innovation that would deliver pennies to the Treasury while kneecapping the very engine of our economic and medical progress. Yes, taxpayer dollars support early-stage research. But the real payoff comes later—in the jobs created, cures discovered, and industries launched when universities and private industry turn those discoveries into real products. By comparison, the sums at stake in patent licensing are trivial. Universities collectively earn only about $3.6 billion annually in patent income—less than the federal government spends on Social Security in a single day. Even confiscating half would barely register against a $6 trillion federal budget. And yet the damage from such a policy would be anything but trivial. The true return on taxpayer investment isn’t in licensing checks sent to Washington, but in the downstream economic activity that federally supported research unleashes. Thanks to the bipartisan Bayh-Dole Act of 1980, universities and private industry have powerful incentives to translate early-stage discoveries into real-world products. Before Bayh-Dole, the government hoarded patents from federally funded research, and fewer than 5% were ever licensed. Once universities could own and license their own inventions, innovation exploded. The result has been one of the best returns on investment in government history. Since 1996, university research has added nearly $2 trillion to U.S. industrial output, supported 6.5 million jobs, and launched more than 19,000 startups. Those companies pay…
