Market sentiment: what comes next?

Yes, we've waited for it long enough and everybody is going completely nuts about what's been happening to Bitcoin for the last week. Even our most optimistic forecasts didn't see a pump like this to come so early and instantly. Hopefully, all VHCEx traders managed to settle in BTC from USD before it all began. Now, let's take a look at what actually happened and what we can expect in the nearest future.

BTC is officially parabolic. Beware the vertical parabolic advance; it's gone further than ANYONE expected on first push but just hit the next major roadblock.

This is INCREDIBLY bullish news for the market with billions coming into the sector 🚀, as soon as BTC slows down alts will begin to rocket.
ETH has been holding steady and almost ready to follow, look to the major alts first.
LTC, ETH, BCH, ETC first then rapidly down the chain.
