  • AI Infrastructure: CoreWeave’s aggressive expansion and multi-year contracts signal a shift of capital from crypto mining to AI compute.

  • Alert: Monitor $75,000–$76,000 for BTC; if breached, target $80,000. Watch for any news regarding the Islamabad talks; failure to progress is a major risk-off trigger.
