Crypto’s Long-Awaited Bull Run: What’s Next? Crypto’s Long-Awaited Bull Run: What’s Next? By Invest Jumpstart It feels like the crypto world has been on a rollercoaster ride with no brakes. Bitcoin had its halving, the so-called “fuel for a bull run,” and indeed, BTC has been on a steady upward trend since early 2023. But here’s the thing—despite all the hype and anticipation, the broader crypto market doesn’t always move in lockstep with Bitcoin. Altcoins? They often take their own sweet time, sometimes running hot when you least expect it, sometimes cooling off just when everyone is ready to celebrate. So where does that leave us? What does it really take for crypto to explode into full-blown “alt season,” and are we just waiting for a US rate cut to make it happen? Let’s break it down. Bitcoin: The Bellwether Bitcoin often sets the mood for the market, and the halving earlier this year has ...

Rigetti Computing (RGTI) Spikes 20% — Real Growth or Quantum Bubble? Rigetti Computing (RGTI) Spikes 20% — Real Growth or Quantum Bubble? By Invest Jumpstart Quick take: Rigetti has rallied sharply — driven by announced purchase orders, government contracts and bullish analyst coverage — yet the company is not profitable and still derives most revenue from a small set of customers. This looks like early commercial traction, not mature profitability. Treat it as a high-volatility, narrative-driven play with some real technical progress underneath it. What actually moved the price A few concrete catalysts have pushed the stock higher: Purchase orders (~$5.7M): Rigetti announced orders for two quantum systems — a rare commercial win in an early-stage field. Government contracts: The company has secured U.S. government and defense-related contracts, providing early revenue visib...

By the Invest Jumpstart Team The Power of the 50 EMA: How One Moving Average Can Give You a Trading Edge In trading, many people rush into a position because they “like the stock” or want to catch a dip. I’ve been there. But over time, I’ve learned that **waiting for confirmation through the 50-day EMA on the 1-hour time frame** can provide a surprisingly strong edge. I’ve tested this across multiple markets — stocks, crypto, and forex — and while there are no guarantees, this single level can act like a switch: once price breaks through it with conviction, momentum often follows. Why the 50 EMA Matters The 50 EMA (Exponential Moving Average) is more than just a line on a chart. It reflects a medium-term trend and acts as a **dynamic support and resistance** level. When price trades below it, momentum is usually bearish or consolidating. But once price breaks above it — especially on the 1-hour chart — it often signals a...

If you’ve been wondering why your stocks tumbled and your crypto dipped into the red, you’re not alone. The culprit? An escalating trade war ignited by a bold move from the United States.
