Phoenix Macro - Week 25
BTC at $66,338, up 4.77% on the week. Price recovered from the W24 low. The bounce came without a fundamental shift in on-chain conditions. Recovery in price, not in signal strength.
IA Score: +0.2466. Down from +0.3305. Delta of -0.0834. Score dropped from Bottom zone into Neutral. Valuation compressed as price lifted, SOPR softened,

ETF flows turned marginally negative. The conditions that confirmed Bottom in W23 and W24 partially normalized with price recovery.

Mode: Neutral. Fixed DCA only. Tactical Reserve stands down.
Bottom Points: 3/8. Same three conditions active: STH MVRV, SOPR, ATH Drawdown. Count held but composite weakened. Same signals at a higher price produce a lower IA.

Valuation is price-sensitive.
Key indicators this week:
STH MVRV 0.920, up from 0.850. Short-term holders moved back toward breakeven as price recovered. Still below 1.0, still active, less acute than W24.
SOPR 0.998, down from 0.999. Sellers still realizing marginal losses into a recovery week. On a week where price rose 4.77%, sellers did not turn profitable. Distribution into strength, not capitulation into weakness.

Mayer Multiple 0.86, up from 0.81. Moved away from the 0.80 threshold. Still cheap relative to the long-term average, but the deepest discount of the sequence did not hold.

ETF Z-Score -0.15, down from +0.13. Institutions leaned toward outflows on the recovery week. Absent on the way down, cautious on the way up. Consistent with slow bottom formation, not confirmed reversal.

NUPL 0.19, up from 0.15. Sentiment improved slightly with price. Still cautious,but not optimistic.

What changed W24 to W25: price up 4.77%, valuation compressed, IA dropped 0.0834, phase moved to Neutral. The structural setup has not broken. It normalized as price lifted, which is the expected behavior of a data-driven system.

Our live portfolio action. Fixed DCA executed as always. Tactical Reserve did not fire. Total system deploy this week: $56.
The discipline this week: the system does not chase recoveries. W23 was about deploying when conditions confirmed. W24 was about holding pace as price fell. W25 is about standing down when the data says to, even as price is higher. Fixed DCA runs. Reserve capital waits for the signal it was built for.

What would return the system to Bottom mode: price compressing back below the W24 range, Mayer through 0.80, SOPR sustained below 0.99, or institutional inflows shifting positive. None present this week. We accumulate at fixed pace and let the data lead.

What stands out most is the strength of the Bitcoin community and its long-term vision.

Already looking forward to the next one. See you at BTC Prague 2027. 🚀₿

Phoenix Macro - Week 24
BTC at $63,316, down 9.20% on the week. Second consecutive weekly decline. Price has moved from the mid-$70Ks through $69K and into the low $63Ks across the two-week sequence. The sharpest two-week drawdown of the recovery.
IA Score: +0.3305. Up from +0.3053. Delta of +0.0305. The score held in Bottom zone for the second consecutive week. After last week's +0.1475 jump into the zone, this week the composite extended slightly rather than reversing. Bottom conditions confirmed.
Mode: Bottom. Tactical Reserve firing. Second week of active deployment.
Bottom Points: 3/8, unchanged from last week. STH MVRV, SOPR, and ATH Drawdown remain the active conditions. The count held steady while price fell another 9%, the structural read did not weaken as price declined.
STH MVRV: 0.850, down from 0.910. Short-term holders moved deeper into unrealized loss. The holders that represents the marginal seller is further underwater than last week. The pressure that precedes bottom formation is building, not releasing.
SOPR: 0.999, up from 0.968. Back near break-even after last week's deeper read. On a single-week basis this is a step back toward neutral seller behavior. Sustained sub-1 readings are what confirm bottom formation, and this week the reading sits right at the line.
Mayer Multiple: 0.81, down from 0.88. Price now trading just above the 0.80 threshold, the widest discount to the long-term average in the entire sequence. This is the level that historically produces the strongest accumulation signal. We are at its doorstep.
ETF Z-Score: 0.13, flat. Institutional flows remain neutral for the fourth consecutive week. Smart money has not capitulated and has not chased. Through a 17% two-week decline, the institutional bid stayed absent. Consistent with a bottom forming rather than a crash completing.
NUPL: 0.15, down from 0.23. Sentiment moved further toward fear. The optimism that characterized the recovery weeks is gone. Market psychology is now in cautious-to-fearful territory.
Week 23 to Week 24, what moved: price fell a further 9.2%, valuation deepened across Mayer and STH MVRV, sentiment moved toward fear, and SOPR ticked back toward break-even. The IA Score held in Bottom zone rather than advancing or retreating. The system read the second week of the decline as a continuation of confirmed accumulation conditions, not a new or deeper signal.
Our live portfolio action. Fixed DCA executed as always. The Tactical Reserve fired for the second consecutive week. Total system deploy this week: $126.
The discipline this week is the mirror of last week's. Week 23 was about deploying when the data turned. Week 24 is about staying deployed at the confirmed pace while price keeps falling, without escalating simply because the number on the screen is lower. The system deployed when conditions confirmed a bottom zone and holds that posture as the zone persists. Lower price does not automatically mean a stronger signal. The data says accumulate, and we accumulate, at the pace the data justifies and no faster.
The reserve capital that has not yet deployed remains positioned for the conditions that follow this setup: a sustained sub-1 SOPR, Mayer through 0.80, or an institutional flow shift. We are not there yet. We continue at bottom-zone pace and let the data lead.

Phoenix Macro - Week 23
BTC at $69,732, down 8.97% on the week. The consolidation broke. Price fell out of the $76K range, through $72K, and settled near $69K. The largest single-week decline of the recovery sequence.
IA Score: +0.3053. Up from +0.1578. Delta of +0.1475. Last week the score was essentially flat at +0.0007. This week it jumped into Bottom zone, the largest single-week move since Week 21.
Mode: Bottom. Tactical Reserve firing.
This is the week the system changed behavior. For the last several weeks I wrote the same conclusion: a healthy recovery is not a buying opportunity, reserves stay parked, we accumulate at base pace. That held while BTC sat at $80K. The data was telling us the market was fair, not cheap. Deploying tactical capital into an $80K market would have been buying on sentiment, not on signal.
This week the data gave the signal.
Bottom Points: 3/8, up from 2/8. STH MVRV, SOPR, and Mayer Multiple are all in active territory at the same time. Not one boundary fluctuation this time. Three conditions confirming each other.
STH MVRV: 0.910, down from 0.980. Short-term holders are now meaningfully underwater, not marginally. The buyers that represents the marginal seller is in loss.
SOPR: 0.968, down from 0.995. The deepest reading of the sequence by a wide margin. Sellers are realizing real losses now.
Mayer Multiple: 0.88, down from 0.95. Price is at a 12% discount to the long-term average, the widest of the recovery. Moving toward the 0.80 level that historically produces the strongest accumulation signal.
NUPL: 0.23, down from 0.29. Sentiment moved from neutral toward fear. ETF Z-Score flat at 0.13, institutions have not capitulated, which is consistent with a bottom forming rather than a crash unfolding.
Week 22 to Week 23, what changed: price fell 8.6%, and every structural indicator deepened in the same direction at the same time. That alignment is what the system waits for. One indicator slipping is noise. Three confirming while price drops is signal.
Portfolio action. This week is different. Fixed DCA of $57 executed as always. On top of that, the Tactical Reserve fired for the first time in this sequence. Our live portfolio total deploy this week: $106.
The tactical capital that deployed today was accumulated over the past weeks while we waited. Every week the system held at base pace and parked the reserve, it was building the ammunition for exactly this kind of week. We did not spend it on the $80K recovery. We deployed it when the data confirmed a bottom-zone setup at $70K.
This is the entire thesis in one week. Stay disciplined when the market looks healthy. Deploy the reserve when the data says the opportunity is real. The system was waiting for better prices. This week it got them.
