The analyst discusses the cryptocurrency and traditional markets, noting that the US government shutdown isn't significantly bearish based on historical financial markets. Focuses on lack of data and particularly the absence of jobless claim data due to the shutdown, which typically influences market volatility. A potential bullish move due to lack of non-farm payroll data is mentioned. US markets are stable with minor pullbacks, and rate cut expectations for 2025 remain positive. The analyst suggests a potential pullback for Bitcoin due to high leverage data coinciding with tops on August 11 and 13-14. Additionally, Bitcoin's location at a strong resistance level of $119,000-120,000 is noted. The analyst suggests that Altcoins could have a pretty disasterous affect in case of a Bitcoin pull back.Altcoin recommendations during pullbacks include: APT at $4.5 and PENGU at $0.00092. XPLA at $0.80 and $0.75 may be good entries. The dominance of bitcoin increasing will drastically influence the altcoins.
