Coming Soon: OPNUSDT Perpetual Contract

A new OPN perp is coming to BitMEX: 
📅 6 March at 04:00 UTC
🚀 50x leverage, margined in USDT

WEEKLY TRADE GUIDE: BTC, CRCL, & GOLD 🚀🏛️

Geopolitical heat is on, and the trades are diverging. Here is how to play the coming week:

1. Bitcoin ($BTC) – BULLISH 
BTC is beating Gold during this escalation. US spot demand is BACK (Coinbase Premium > 0).
🔹 Play: Long above $68k. Target: $70k+.

2. Circle ($CRCL) – AI HYPERGROWTH 🤖
Surged to $100 on Q4 beats. Repricing as the currency for AI agents.
🔹 Play: Wait for the mid-$80s support to accumulate.

3. Gold ($XAUT) – THE DISCOUNT 🥇
Dropped to $5,160 due to a margin-call flush, NOT bad fundamentals. Central banks are still buying.
🔹 Play: Accumulate the $5,160–$5,200 zone.

Position yourself with up to 100x leverage on BitMEX.
