He said that Bitcoin went up by 1.1% in the last week.<\/p>\n<p>He added that continued institutional buying and large corporate treasuries building up their holdings were two things that helped keep the market confident.<\/p>\n<p>The rally coincided with the Bitcoin 2026 conference in Las Vegas, where prices went up to $79,500.<\/p>\n<p>But the move hit the well-known \u201cbuy the rumor, sell the news\u201d pattern, and the market fell back into a short period of consolidation after that.<\/p>\n<h3>Is Washington preparing a strategic Bitcoin reserve?<\/h3>\n<p>Thielen also said that White House advisers had hinted at an upcoming announcement about national strategic reserves.<\/p>\n<p>He said that the possibility of a policy-level commitment to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cryptopolitan.com\/bitcoins-weekend-fragile-market\/\">Bitcoin<\/a> made people more positive about the market as a whole.<\/p>\n<p>Thielen said that with Bitcoin\u2019s market share over 60%, \u201ca small group of altcoins is quietly bottoming out with real catalysts behind them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Privacy coins, which he said are becoming more popular with institutions, and projects related to real-world asset (RWA) infrastructure, are worth keeping an eye on.<\/p>\n<p>RWA protocols turn traditional financial instruments like bonds, stocks, and real estate into digital tokens that can be used on blockchain networks.<\/p>\n<p>Thielen\u2019s analysis shows that these sectors might be able to attract capital once Bitcoin\u2019s consolidation phase is over.<\/p>\n<p>The 10x Research <a href=\"https:\/\/signal.10xresearch.com\/p\/crypto-trends-chartbook-several-altcoin-opportunities-as-trend-remains-bullish\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">report<\/a> said that the opportunity was less about the headlines and more about what was going on behind them.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin\u2019s price is above its short- and medium-term moving averages, which keeps the trend going in the near term.<\/p>\n<p>However, the post-conference consolidation suggests that traders are waiting for a new reason to buy.<\/p>\n<p>One possible announcement from the White House about strategic reserves could be one.<\/p>\n<p>Thielen\u2019s altcoin picks, especially in privacy and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cryptopolitan.com\/tokenized-rwas-on-solana-break-above-2b\/\">RWA<\/a> infrastructure, should be watched to see if institutional flows follow his thesis.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin is currently trading at $78,379.50 according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coingecko.com\/en\/coins\/bitcoin\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">data<\/a> from CoinGecko.
