This week’s outlook is relatively stable, without any major events that could influence the markets. Bitcoin price is hovering around $48,000, with many users anticipating a retest of the $50,000 psychological level soon. Some, however, believe that the BTC could slide lower.

Is Biden a Bitcoin maximalist?
The United States acting president, Joe Biden, posted an image of himself with glowing red eyes on X (formerly Twitter), on Monday. This move from Biden has left investors confused. While some have interpreted the image as a comment on the Superbowl being rigged, the Crypto Twitter community thought it was to do with Bitcoin.

Bitcoin supporters started this trend of using glowing eyes as their profile picture back in 2020. MicroStrategy CEO Michael Saylor still has a similar profile on X. Some analysts on the social media platform speculated if this will mark the cycle top for Bitcoin price.
It is still unclear if Biden’s image is in support of Bitcoin or Superbowl-related.
