June 28, 2026·Sawyer·IQ Market Memo·Issue 04Operator
Bitcoin's washed out on the soft measures. The demand just walked back out the door.
Issue 03 closed with Cycle IQ at 54.8 and one bet: macro was the only thing that could overrule cleaning internals. It overruled them. This week — Issue 04 — the score fell 9.2 to 45.5, and the June firm-up turned out to be air. The question isn't whether the chain is cheap. It is. It's why nothing cheap is catching a bid.
The Read
- Cycle IQ 45.5 (Neutral) as of Jun 28, down 9.2. Broke the mid-50s it held all month.
- Altcoin IQ 37.8 (Neutral) as of Jun 28, down 7.0. Round-tripped its entire mid-June bounce.
- Attention IQ 24.3 (Quiet) as of Jun 28, up 5.8. A billion-dollar flush didn't bring the crowd back.
- Verdict: every score that firmed up in June has given it back, with no catalyst for the cheap valuation. Not a bottom call.
The demand exit came back, and macro is the vise
