Treat these worldview rows as the standing posterior state that should feed the tactical, portfolio, and monitoring sections below.

No AHI worldview snapshots persisted yet.

CALL VOLATILITY UP VIX [Horizon: 1-5d | Signal Grade: A] Why it matters: Korea circuit-breaker stress, Iran-war risk narratives, and mixed cross-asset reaction raise gap risk across risk markets. BTC resilience does not remove macro shock risk.
Triggers Equity index futures fail to recover prior-day highs; VIX stays elevated; repeated war-escalation headlines.
Invalidation Confirmed de-escalation headlines plus broad risk-asset recovery above prior breakdown levels.
CALL RELATIVE BTC/ETH (BTC vs ETH/SOL) [Horizon: 1-5d | Signal Grade: B] Why it matters: Multiple items show BTC attracting haven and ETF flow attention while ETH/SOL were reported weaker during the same stress window.
Triggers BTC dominance extends higher and BTC holds above recent breakout zone while ETH/BTC and SOL/BTC continue lower.
Invalidation ETH/BTC and SOL/BTC trend reversal with improving alt breadth.

CALL BULLISH BTC (institutional BTC rails) [Horizon: 4-12w | Signal Grade: B] Why it matters: Morgan Stanley ETF custody stack (Coinbase/BNY), Kraken Fed-account access, and Indiana retirement-plan adoption collectively reinforce institutional access pathways.
Triggers Additional U.S. platform approvals/listings, sustained spot ETF net inflows, and higher custody-service integration announcements.
Invalidation Material U.S. policy reversal or large sustained ETF outflow regime.
CALL NEUTRAL (U.S. housing beta) [Horizon: 4-12w | Signal Grade: C] Why it matters: Housing pieces are informative but mostly structural/webinar-level evidence, not a sharp tactical catalyst.
Triggers Clear turn in mortgage-rate trend and high-frequency transaction data acceleration.
Invalidation Fresh deterioration in affordability and transaction volumes.

CALL BULLISH BTC (BTC absolute) [Horizon: 1-2w | Signal Grade: B] Why it matters: Repeated reports of BTC reclaiming 71k-72k, plus ETF flow support and resilient response during geopolitical stress, indicate upside continuation potential toward 80k narrative levels.
Triggers Daily closes above 72k and continued ETF net inflow prints.
Invalidation Failed breakout and close back below 68k with risk-off broadening.
CALL VOLATILITY UP (ETH) [Horizon: 1-5d | Signal Grade: B] Why it matters: Coverage highlights BTC leadership while ETH appears less resilient, creating elevated relative-volatility setup.
Triggers ETH underperforms BTC on up days and sells harder on macro-risk sessions.
Invalidation ETH regains relative trend and holds higher lows versus BTC.

BTC spot ETF flow persistence and IBIT offset behavior.
Regulatory infrastructure cadence: Fed payment access and retirement-plan enablement headlines.
Geopolitical escalation/de-escalation headlines as primary volatility switch.
Stablecoin AML/sanctions policy follow-through (FATF warning).
