Good morning Hackers 👋

Edition 6 is here. BTC sits at $75,338 at a critical neutral zone inside the ascending 2H channel. The 100 day moving average is now in play for the first time in weeks. Up tests channel resistance at $78k. Down tests channel support at $72k–$73k. Monday’s volume will be the deciding factor.

Meanwhile the RAVE scandal is getting bigger by the hour — three major exchanges investigating, ZachXBT offering a $25K bounty, and 90% of supply was insider controlled. A reminder of why due diligence matters.
