Bitcoin Steady at $107K as FBI Nabs $25M Hacker & India Plots BTC Reserve

Bitcoin traded steadily near $107,600 on Friday, despite a surge in global headlines, from FBI arrests to geopolitical power plays. A key catalyst behind investor calm was the arrest of British national Kai West, known online as “IntelBroker,” who allegedly ran BreachForums and facilitated the sale of stolen corporate data.

The FBI stated that West caused damages exceeding $25 million by leaking data from over 40 companies in exchange for Bitcoin and Monero. He was arrested in France and now awaits extradition to the U.S.

Interesting report on how "IntelBroker" got caught. According to the report, Kai West primarily used Monero, however, the use of Monero $XMR was not part of how he got caught. In fact, Monero’s strong privacy features gave challenges to authorities.

One undercover agent reportedly paid $250 in Bitcoin for access to confidential files. West’s cyber group allegedly sold data valued at $2.5 million. By 2024, IntelBroker had built a reputation as a major darknet figurehead.

Despite the scandal, Bitcoin price action barely flinched, a sign that traders are increasingly confident in regulators’ ability to track blockchain activity.

  • BTC held steady at $107,600
  • $42.6B in 24h volume reflects strong activity
  • Market cap remains at $2.14 trillion

The event highlights crypto’s dual nature, which is both used in crime and also traceable. Law enforcement’s growing technical capability to monitor crypto transfers is reinforcing market trust.

India Proposes Bitcoin Reserve to Boost Economy

In addition, there’s another bullish report came from India, where Pradeep Bhandari, a national spokesperson for the ruling BJP party, advocated for a Bitcoin reserve pilot. Writing for India Today, Bhandari highlighted how nations like Bhutan and the U.S. are already exploring sovereign crypto strategies, suggesting India could benefit from joining that list.

Bhandari emphasized India’s growing renewable energy sector as a competitive advantage for Bitcoin mining and accumulation. He argued that regulatory clarity, still lacking in India’s tax-heavy environment, could unlock innovation, attract capital, and position India as a leader in financial technology.

India currently taxes crypto gains at 30% under Section 115BBH of the Income Tax Act, without a formal regulatory infrastructure. Despite this, domestic interest in crypto remains strong. Bitcoin hovered at $107,100 after Bhandari’s remarks, signaling steady institutional confidence.

Bitcoin Technicals Signal Potential Reversal

Technically, Bitcoin faces stiff resistance at $108,250, the top of a descending trendline visible on the 2-hour chart. After bouncing sharply from $99,717, the asset broke above major Fibonacci levels—0.618 at $102,977 and 0.5 at $103,984—before stalling in a narrowing range. Price action suggests a rising wedge pattern, which often precedes a breakdown.

Bitcoin price chart – Soruce: Tradingview

The 50-EMA at $106,147 and the 23.6% Fib level at $106,237 offer critical support. Meanwhile, MACD is flashing bearish divergence, with momentum fading as histogram bars shrink. Recent candlesticks resemble spinning tops and doji formations—signals of indecision.

  • Bearish trigger: Break below $106,200
  • Downside targets: $104,991 and $103,984
  • Upside invalidation: Daily close above $108,250

If bulls fail to clear $108,250 with conviction, we could see a pullback toward $104K. On the flip side, a clean break could set up a run toward $109,257 and $110,448.

BTC Bull Token Nears $8.4M Hard Cap as Presale Enters Final Hours

With Bitcoin trading near $105,000, investor focus is shifting toward BTC Bull Token ($BTCBULL), a rising altcoin that is nearly fully allocated during its presale. As of today, the project has raised $7,438,492.88 of its $8,397,441 target, leaving under $1 million to be raised before the token price moves to the next tier.

Currently priced at $0.00258, early buyers have a limited time to enter before the subsequent price increase takes effect.

Bitcoin-Linked Tokenomics and Burn Mechanism

BTCBULL ties its value directly to Bitcoin’s price through two smart systems:

  • BTC Airdrops: Distributed to holders, with priority for presale participants.
  • Supply Burns: Triggered automatically when BTC rises in $50,000 increments.
  • APY: 55% annually
  • Lockups: None
  • Liquidity: Immediate
  • Total Pool: 1,925,149,417 BTCBULL

This staking model appeals to both DeFi veterans and newcomers seeking hands-off income. With just hours left and the hard cap nearly reached, momentum is building fast. BTCBULL’s blend of Bitcoin-linked value, scarcity mechanics, and flexible staking is fueling strong demand. Early buyers have a limited time to enter before the next pricing tier activates.
