Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, political coins — who really is the king of sentiment?
PPI and CPI data released, institutions keep raising September rate hike expectations.
$DOGE quietly rose 3% to 0.085, the big brother of the meme circle leading the charge.
Unfortunately, the 0.086‑0.09 range is packed with trapped holders, relying purely on sentiment-driven funds to push forward. The stronger come fast and leave faster; small positions are fine for playing, but never hold stubbornly with a big mindset.
$SHIB also rose 3% to 0.0000052, a typical follower little brother.
When DOGE wags its tail, it jumps along; when the big brother eats meat, it picks up the broth; when the big brother turns and runs, it runs faster than anyone else. Its liquidity and flexibility are all a notch lower.
In contrast, $TRUMP lies flat and plays dead around 1.98 😴.
It’s not on the same path as the dog coins, a genuine political coin. It doesn’t move with sentiment-driven markets, quietly lying on the floor; but when news events hit, it immediately dances wildly with big swings.
These three brothers at early Sunday morning are the crypto market’s sentiment thermometer:
DOGE leads the mischief, SHIB follows the hype, TRUMP waits in the corner for big news.
Remember not to treat memes as value coins to hold; when the sentiment tide recedes, the exit speed is beyond imagination.
By the way: #BTC现货ETF三日流出接近4.5亿美金, the overall market environment should also be kept in mind.
#BTC现货ETF三日流出近4.5亿美元 $DOGE
The weekend is the easiest time to create Meme rallies, but also the easiest to create illusions.
BTC is consolidating around $77,000 with overall low volatility. In a low liquidity environment, DOGE can show significant gains with relatively little capital, but it is equally prone to quick pullbacks.
If DOGE rallies with volume and continues to outperform BTC, and can hold its gains on Monday, it indicates that risk capital is genuinely returning.
If the rise mainly occurs during low trading periods followed by a drop in volume, I would not consider it a new Meme cycle. Sentiment requires sustained capital, not just price movements.$SOL Staring at the 4-hour SOL chart for a long time, I feel like my screen is about to get a patina. The 24-hour high and low differ by only one dollar, this ECG line is so flat even your own mother wouldn't recognize it.
Solana Mobile had a security incident, normally this would cause a 2% drop, but today there isn't even a splash; the price is stuck tightly at 101.8. The MA5, MA10, and MA20 lines (101.77, 101.79, 100.98) are twisted together like a rope, binding the candlesticks so they can't move. The RSI and KDJ indicators below are all lying flat on the 50 midline, and the trading volume has shrunk to a minimal level.
This kind of market is very familiar to veteran traders, a typical "eagle waiting" scenario. The main players neither push down nor pull up, just wearing down time. Those trapped above at 105 are hoping for a big bullish candle to break free, while those who missed the boat at 97 are hoping for a drop below to get in. Both sides are exhausted with bloodshot eyes, waiting to see who cracks first and makes a mistake.
No volatility means no damage, and no fun. Even day traders are disgusted away by this slippage of just a few tenths of a percent.
This kind of dead calm with shrinking volume and convergence often means a big move is brewing. Do you think this is the calm before the storm, ready to shoot up with a big bullish candle and break out, or is it a long consolidation before a drop, heading straight to test the previous low at 97? Where is your order placed, above or below?Next week, the real risks to guard against are not just interest rate hikes, but also liquidity black swans.
If this bomb really explodes, risk assets will collectively come under pressure, with $ETH and $BTC falling first, and U.S. stocks—especially tech stocks—facing even greater pressure. Highly volatile assets like $ZEC, which have surged recently, could fall even more sharply. Gold is somewhat special; rising dollar and real interest rates suppress gold prices, but the Middle East situation and safe-haven funds will support gold, likely resulting in intense volatility.
This is truly a super critical week. The Federal Reserve meets on September 16, and the market is already heavily betting on a 25 basis point rate hike. Then, on September 18, the Bank of Japan may also raise rates by 25 basis points to 1.25%. With these two major central banks tightening liquidity one after the other, the real danger to watch for is the simultaneous unwinding of yen carry trades and dollar liquidity contraction.
Can Trump still save the market?
Calling for rate cuts and pressuring the Fed is just the first step. What can really save the market is lowering oil prices, easing U.S.-Iran tensions, releasing fiscal stimulus, and stabilizing financial market liquidity. But the problem is, inflation has just been reignited by oil prices, so it’s not easy for the Fed to suddenly turn dovish. No matter how much Trump paints a rosy picture, he can’t just make inflation and interest rates disappear with a single statement.
Can U.S. Treasury yields, the dollar, the yen, and oil prices all spiral out of control at the same time?
If these indicators all rise together, the black swan might really be coming.
Anyway, my short positions are held firmly. Whether it’s a white swan or a black swan, bring it on.
The above is just my personal opinion and does not constitute any investment advice! $FLOCK $FLOCK project fundamental overview
The team is registered and operates mainly in London, UK, with the foundation established in Switzerland, focusing on decentralized AI infrastructure. The project's core technology is federated learning + blockchain, which does not require collecting raw data and can complete AI training on local devices, solving data privacy issues. The product includes three main modules: AI Arena model competition training ground, FL Alliance enterprise collaborative training, and Moonbase model marketplace.
The cooperation resources are impressive, with partnerships with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), Alibaba Cloud's Tongyi Qianwen Qwen, and the Ethereum Foundation. It also connects with Akash and IOnet decentralized computing power networks, targeting pilot implementations in healthcare, climate risk, and enterprise privatized AI scenarios. The token is used for node staking, model training incentives, and model API call payments.
From the perspective of the AI iteration wave, current large model iterations are rapid, with centralized AI giants monopolizing computing power and data; FLOCK captures the DeAI trend, allowing ordinary nodes and institutions to co-build AI models, aligning logically with major industry trends. However, it should be viewed objectively: the project's technical concept is very new, and commercialization is still in the early stages, mostly pilot projects.
The token has just opened perpetual contracts, and market speculation has fully priced in the "DeAI narrative." The AI sector theme is hot, but concept does not equal performance; the AI sector is generally cooling down, and new tokens may experience correction volatility much greater than established coins #PPI、CPI公布后，多家机构上调9月加息预期 ✌️Daily gains exceeding 100%, have these coins gone crazy?
$ETH $ZEC The rotation rhythm of this bull market is different from before
In past bull markets, it was basically $BTC that started first. After the bottom of BTC doubled and the market ran for more than half a year, funds would then push mainstream coins like ETH and SOL to catch up.
This time, however, it's a blooming of many flowers. SOL, ETH, and BNB have all outperformed BTC, and ZEC has shown explosive strength. The exchange rates of SOLBTC, ETHBTC, and BNBBTC have hit new highs in recent months. ETH's trend is particularly strong, and compared to the last cycle, it can be considered a rebirth.
When trading, never be rigid; always respect the market. When you think the market is wrong, it's often just that your own understanding hasn't kept up. #BTC现货ETF三日流出近4.5亿美元 #OKX星球话题来啦 #交易之声：你的经验值得被听到 @OKX星球 Brothers, friends who have been watching AI optical modules recently, pay attention! $AAOI is once again on a roller coaster ride. So far, it has retraced more than 50% from the 52-week high of $233.67, dropped about 24% in the past month, and nearly 38% in three months. The annual gain is still as high as 289%, soaring all the way from last year's low of $18.5. It is indeed a star stock under the AI infrastructure wave.
The core logic remains the explosive demand for data center optical modules. The company is accelerating shipments of 800G and 1.6T high-speed transceivers. Q2 revenue was $191.9 million, a year-on-year increase of 86%, setting a record; Q3 guidance is $255-290 million, with a full-year target approaching $1.1 billion. Texas capacity expansion and continuous orders from major customers (hyperscale), including the first 1.6T mass production order, demand far exceeds supply. Management says capacity is the bottleneck and expects supply shortages at least until mid-2027.
However, recent pressures are significant: in August, the company announced a stock issuance of up to $600 million (ATM), which directly triggered a stock price plunge and increased dilution concerns; insiders have also recently reduced holdings; the company is still in a loss state, with fluctuating gross margins and high customer concentration. Analysts generally maintain a buy rating, with a target price centered around $163, implying about 55% upside, but also warn of valuation and execution risks. #Lumentum营收翻倍，AI光通信需求延续 #PPI、CPI公布后，多家机构上调9月加息预期 #OKX星球话题来啦 $PONS is highly volatile but without high returns🔥$BTC is playing dead, $ETH is fiercely attacking, $SOL is holding back, and $DOGE is still acting like "I'm fine".
Don't be fooled by the sideways trading—this is not calm, it's everyone holding their breath before the storm.
$BTC is stuck around 77,000 dollars, like a giant beast with its neck held down by macro forces. Above 80,000 is a selling pressure wall, below 76,000 is the institutional defense line. When the Fed's September meeting starts, it will either break out or continue grinding until everyone doubts their sanity.
$ETH is the real explosive player. In the past 24 hours, over 300 million dollars of shorts were liquidated, ETH surged over 8% intraday, the strongest single-day sprint in three weeks—short sellers were crushed, a typical "short squeeze knockout." But don't get carried away: after the surge, it fell back near 2520, essentially a leverage liquidation, not a frenzy of new money.
$SOL has climbed back to 100 dollars, looking stable but actually tense. The technicals just showed a "death cross" signal, 100 is a psychological line, 90–94 is the bottom support zone, and without breaking 110, no talk of reversal. It’s like a player warming up before the game, not yet making a move.
$DOGE... still the same dog. Hovering around 0.084 dollars, whale wallets have accumulated a historic amount, but the price remains unmoved—"I pretend not to hear the good news, and I'm the first to run from the bad."
In summary:
Bitcoin is waiting for macro signals, Ethereum just finished a big short squeeze show, SOL is walking a tightrope between buildup and pullback, and Dogecoin continues to keep retail investors hanging on "faith." $BTC / $ETH / $SOL
I don’t watch these three for the same reason.
$BTC tells me about direction is the broader market getting stronger or weaker?
$ETH helps me read participation is capital moving deeper into the ecosystem?
$SOL gives me a sense of risk appetite are traders willing to move further out on the risk curve?
So I don’t treat them as three identical bets.
$BTC → Environment
$ETH → Participation
$SOL → Risk appetite
Different assets.
Different signals.
Same marketA coin with a market cap of over eight million USD rose 38% in 24 hours; this scale has never been about value discovery.
What it’s betting on is whether the narrative can be repeated. Buying as soon as you see it on your phone—this phrase spreads better than the project itself, so capital is willing to give a short-term price first. Similar to the previous round’s Shiba Inu, essentially it provides newcomers with a familiar reference point to reduce the cost of understanding.
Long-term holders should note that this type of token has no cash flow nor lock-up constraints; what rises is attention, and what falls is also attention. On-chain, once daily trading volume falls back to pre-rise levels and new addresses stop expanding, this round of narrative is basically over.
#ZEC机构资金入场，高位杠杆开始出清
#加密财库分化：买币还是回购？ #OKX预言家：来星球玩预测 $ZEC This week's review core: surge, pullback, waiting for policy repricing.
$BTC once broke through $82,000, but was then suppressed by strong non-farm payrolls, hawkish Fed expectations, and rising US Treasury yields, falling back below $80,000; $ETH also surged then pulled back. Previously, BTC and ETH still had strong ETF fund support, indicating mid-term funds have not significantly withdrawn, but price advances have begun to be constrained by macro liquidity.
The biggest variable this week is inflation. August CPI overall met expectations, but core CPI month-on-month exceeded expectations, combined with strong employment data, leading the market to further bet on a Fed rate hike next week. Meanwhile, the 10-year US Treasury yield nears 5%, oil prices remain high due to geopolitical tensions, putting pressure on risk asset valuations.
The current market has thus entered a critical macro-driven decision period. Short-term BTC key support is in the $76,000–$80,000 range; whether it can stabilize above $82,000 again will determine if the trend can strengthen once more. Next week, the FOMC and the procedural vote on the CLARITY Act coincidentally arrive simultaneously, concentrating policy, interest rate, and regulatory expectations.
This is not a simple bull-bear switch, but a high-level repricing after the uptrend encounters liquidity pressure. If the Fed hikes rates but signals dovishness, a negative reaction may settle; if hawkish expectations are further reinforced, beware of further pullbacks in BTC and ETH.
#PPI、CPI公布后，多家机构上调9月加息预期
#BTC现货ETF三日流出近4.5亿美元 My cousin got obsessed with on-chain $DOGE last year
He sat in front of the computer every day scrolling through Twitter
He asked me, "Bro, do you understand what narrative means?"
I said, "I only know that if the food delivery is late, they deduct money"
He showed me a $DOGE chart
Said this community is crazy
When it pumps, even they get scared
I asked him how much he bought
He said just 200 yuan
Lost it and treated friends to barbecue
Later he went after airdrops
Made seven or eight wallets
Wrote the mnemonic phrases in his homework notebook
But his mom sold the notebook as scrap paper
He almost fainted on the spot
I asked if there was money in the wallets
He said yes, luckily
But it was all testnet records
All for nothing
Then he learned his lesson
Kept only one main wallet
Didn’t follow others’ calls anymore
He said the worst thing is getting carried away
Once you do, you think you’re the chosen one
But most of the time
You’re just liquidity in someone else’s story
I thought that was pretty true
So I treated him to barbecue
He ate and said
The next wave will definitely turn things around
I said, "You should pay off your Huabei bill first this month"
He chuckled
Said, "Bro, you don’t get it
This is called faith"
I said faith is fine
Just don’t use your living expenses
He nodded
Then took out his phone to look at that dog head chart again Yesterday I said to watch 1100, today $ZEC gave a 1129, still 2.6% away from the answer.
That -3.6% bearish candle on Saturday cut the rebound gains in half, closing at 1123. Today it slightly stabilized to 1129, which is a breather. From the recent high of 1244, it has retraced 9.4%. The roller coaster is still heading downhill, but the speed has clearly slowed.
The current situation is very delicate: above at 1160 there is the trapped position from Saturday's sell-off, below at 1100 is the key level I mentioned to watch closely. That is not just a round number, but also the launch point of last week's 7.9% big bullish candle. Breaking below it would mean losing the last support confidence.
Liquidity is thin over the weekend, so prices can be distorted. The real decisive moment is at Monday's open. If it gaps down directly toward 1100, don't rush to catch the falling knife; check the buy order depth at that level before deciding. Aggressive traders wait for stabilization, conservative ones wait for Monday.$INJ No vision, can't hold on, the profit this time is as thin as paper, but I love it to death.
Before the market fully started, INJ repeatedly hovered around 6.273. I thought it couldn't break through; every rebound was on low volume, a typical sign of weak upward momentum, with heavy resistance from trapped positions above. Such a volume-less rebound can't go far, so I chose to short, as a way to justify my judgment.
Now at 5.881, it has moved +312.99%. The wait wasn't in vain; the profit is a bit thin, but the timing was right, and this piece of meat tastes delicious.
First take 70% off, then move the remaining 30% to protect the cost. Admit mistakes if wrong, hold if right—this is the most basic trading discipline.
Don't let profits inflate your ego, don't despair over drawdowns. Hold as long as the trend is intact; if it breaks, exit. Don't fall in love with the market.
If you miss it, you miss it; there will be new opportunities later. Chasing now risks getting slapped by a sudden rebound. Until INJ's new structure is established, keep your hands off and wait for the next shot.
$ZEC $ETH $DOGE Last night, a tweet pulled it out of the sideways movement, reaching 0.106, up 3% in 24 hours.
The question is, what makes it hold firm. Open interest in futures rose from 442 million to 459 million, and the funding rate turned positive from negative to 0.14% over the week.
This set of numbers shows that leverage is chasing, not spot stocking. Tweets can ignite the flame, but how long it burns depends on whether people keep buying.
$BTC amplitude less than 1%, ETF net outflow of 460 million last week, prices did not crash, and selling pressure was indeed picked up.
$ETH is tougher. ETFs saw a net inflow of 197 million last week, and 216 million in one day on Friday. Institutions are buying, retail investors watching.
I tend to think this is a short-term pulse driven by news, not a trend start.
Watching DOGE to see if it can close above 0.106 or fail to hold it is Twitter's day trip.
#BTC现货ETF三日流出近4 50 million USD
#ZEC机构资金入场, high-level leverage begins to clear #加密财库分化: Buy coins or buy back? $DOGE $BTC Good morning, brothers.
I was just woken up by a sudden urge to pee, and half-asleep after finishing in the bathroom, I casually opened OKX. Even though I don’t hold any positions, I haven’t missed a day of checking the market.
Ethereum’s candlestick is hovering around 2500, with wicks poking up and down that make you itch. Every time it bounces up, the voice in my head shouts "It’s breaking out," and my hands get itchy too, but if I really chase it, eight out of ten times I get stuck inside. Today’s ETH liquidation data is right there—if it breaks down below 2409, over 645 million long orders are waiting to be swept; if it breaks above 2646, 597 million short orders are waiting to be blown out. This is a hunting ground, with knives hanging on both sides.
The market never fears that you don’t understand it; it fears that you can’t control your hands.
Market situation
ETH is currently priced around 2464, down less than 1% on the daily chart, but the weekly chart is still green. The key level is clear: 2438, the 0.618 golden ratio, which suppressed the market from March to May for two whole months and now acts as support. Above, between 2720 and 2820, there’s over 10 million ETH trapped in losing positions; a real breakout won’t be that easy.
Yesterday’s 8% wick is even more interesting. Within one hour, it swept from 2440 straight up to 2667, with whale addresses’ large trade volume instantly surging nearly 14%, then the bears kicked it back down, leaving one of the longest upper shadows this year. In short, big money was precisely blowing up short positions and simultaneously burying retail traders chasing highs.
News
LAB is even more typical. Yesterday it surged from 0.0357 to 0.0866, nearly a 50% intraday jump. When it hit 0.08, the group chat was full of "It’s taking off." But looking deeper, there was no fundamental change—the project team repurchased $2.35 million worth of tokens within 30 hours, combined with a daily volume of 146 million, directly triggering a short squeeze. This coin crashed from $27 in June to below 0.05, with internal wallets dumping nearly 500 million tokens, 1.7 times the timeline of the attribution schedule. Now 1.87 million tokens are still unlocking daily; the pump is just to find someone to take the bag and blow out shorts.
Don’t overlook the macro side either. On the 15th is the FOMC meeting, with the market pricing in over an 85% chance of a rate hike, and on the 16th there’s the procedural vote on the CLARITY Act. ETH ETFs have still seen net inflows these days and the weekly chart is relatively stronger than BTC, but before big events, no one can predict the direction.
A few final words
Tom Lee is shouting again today that he’s "very bullish for the next 12 months," saying ETH is seriously undervalued. Whether I believe it or not doesn’t matter; after all, he currently holds 5.93 million ETH and is still down 5 billion on paper. The ones shouting and the ones holding are always the same group.
I have no position and don’t plan to open one today. It’s not that I don’t see opportunities, but I know chasing in will most likely trap me again. Watching the market is fine, but placing orders isn’t—this is probably the hardest muscle to train in crypto.
Controlling your hands is the real entry point.Core coin suddenly reverses after a sharp plunge! Is it a trap or a golden opportunity?
⚠️This article is only a blockchain logic popular science review and does not constitute any investment advice.
After a rapid sell-off, CORE experienced a quick rebound, showing a reversal trend on the chart. Many people instantly got excited: the bad news is fully priced in, the golden pit has arrived, and it's time to buy the dip. But before placing orders in excitement, you must distinguish whether this is a trend reversal driven by fundamentals or a short-term technical rebound trap after the plunge.
The root cause of the recent big drop was the 8.31 reward contract vulnerability incident, which shook market trust in the project. Coupled with continuous token inflation release and legacy ghost chip selling pressure, panic capital fled, pushing the coin price down rapidly. After panic selling subsides, oversold conditions often attract bottom-fishing funds, triggering a short-term rally. This is the most common script for rebounds after crashes.
Let's first look at the bullish logic, i.e., reasons to believe this is a golden pit.
First, the underlying BTC staking infrastructure remains intact. CORE's core CLTV native timelock mechanism is unharmed; staked native BTC stays on the Bitcoin mainnet, with private keys held by users, so the underlying BTC principal is safe and unaffected by upper-layer contract vulnerabilities. On-chain staked BTC volume is stable, once surpassing 5,000 BTC, currently still 2,335 native BTC are staked, proving the BTCFi underlying infrastructure continues to operate.
Second, the sector narrative logic remains. 2.4 trillion dormant BTC needs yield channels; non-custodial staking without custody or WBTC remains a differentiated selling point in the BTCFi sector. lstBTC liquid staking certificates, AMP asset management, and SatPay's product plans form a complete BTC financial product matrix. The long-term roadmap aims to gradually reduce inflation rewards and rely on ecosystem fee buybacks of CORE to build a self-sustaining flywheel.
Third, valuation has fully digested the deep drop. After a large correction, many panic chips exited, and risks are fully released. Once BTC's market recovers and BTCFi sector sentiment improves, combined with ongoing institutional custody channel progress, the project has valuation recovery potential.
On the other hand, bearish warnings cannot be ignored: this rebound is likely a bull trap.
First, the core contradiction causing the plunge is not fully resolved. The 8.31 incident damaged market confidence in upper-layer contract security; governance transparency and legacy chip issues remain. Underlying BTC safety does not equal CORE token safety, a key point many retail investors easily confuse.
Second, the ecosystem's income still relies on token inflation subsidies. Real business fee volume is small; the self-sustaining flywheel relying on fee buybacks is still in the roadmap planning stage and not yet widely implemented. Inflation-driven continuous selling pressure will suppress the coin price long-term.
Third, sector competition is fierce. Stacks, Babylon, and RSK compete for the BTCFi market, splitting capital and developers. Even if the sector overall strengthens, CORE may not capture the largest gains.
Fourth, technical rebounds do not equal trend reversals. Oversold rebounds after crashes are often short-term capital games driven by short covering and bottom-fishing funds. Once positive news is absorbed and no sustained new capital enters, a second sell-off can easily start again, the so-called "bull trap."
So how should ordinary retail investors distinguish between a golden pit and a rebound trap? Remember three verification indicators:
1. Whether the on-chain native BTC staking volume can steadily and continuously grow, no longer declining;
2. Whether real ecosystem fees and business income show clear growth and buybacks are implemented;
3. Whether the BTC market remains strong and the BTCFi sector forms a sustained trend rather than a single-day pulse.
Only when all three conditions are met can it be considered fundamental recovery; relying solely on short-term capital-driven rallies is just an oversold rebound and a high-risk gamble.
Final summary: The underlying BTC staking infrastructure is still operating, and the sector narrative still has room for imagination, but a short-term rebound does not mean the bear market is over or bad news is fully priced in. Do not blindly buy heavily just because of one big green candle. The BTC market is tough, and traps are everywhere. Position management and phased verification are the safest strategies now.
💬 Interactive question: Do you think this CORE rebound is an oversold bull trap or a genuine golden pit? Share your thoughts in the comments.Late at night, stopping at a gas station next to California's freight highway, the "$6.00/Gal" flashing on the machine screen sounded like a silent blow. AAA data doesn't lie. On September 11, the national average diesel price officially crossed the $6 mark, a surge of over 60% compared to $3.70 a year earlier. Many young traders watching the market in office buildings felt nothing at all; they cared more about the dozens of basis points on the Fed's dot plot. Anyone who has worked in the real economy knows: diesel is not an ordinary consumer good; it is the lifeblood of modern business society. From heavy trucks handling containers at West Coast ports, to combine harvesters harvesting grain across the Great Plains, to freight trains shuttling between states, diesel prices spiral out of control, meaning the terminal pricing of all physical goods will be forced to rewrite. Looking across the Middle East, the gray swans have long been in flocks. Oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz are slowly passing through the Strait of Hormuz, the Saudi land bypass pipeline originally meant to avoid risk was forced to close after drone strikes, and the Houthi advance along the Bab el-Mandeb Strait has choked the Red Sea's throat so tightly that it can hardly breathe. This is by no means a geopolitical episode but a blatant supply-side shock. The upcoming FOMC meeting is far from an easy report card on Powell's table. Core inflation may be temporarily masked by statistical magic, but diesel-powered transportation costs are the most stubbornly sticky, mercilessly seeping into every future CPI reading like mercury. Against this macro backdrop,Just finished reviewing the latest $SKY data, feeling a bit mixed. The current price is around $0.063, up nearly 6% in the last 24 hours, with a noticeable increase in trading volume. Market cap is solidly around $1.48 billion, ranking in the top 50.
In the past week, it actually dropped about 8%, but over the past month, it has risen nearly 20% overall. It has retraced more than a third from the historical high near $0.10 and rebounded over 80% from the low point.
What really stands out is Standard Chartered Bank just initiating coverage, setting a target price of $0.325 by the end of 2028, roughly five times the current price. They compare Sky to the “Federal Bank of DeFi,” valuing the expansion of the USDS stablecoin, protocol revenue inflows, and the ongoing buyback and burn mechanism.
In the short term, the institutional report has boosted sentiment, but the technicals haven’t fully strengthened yet, and volatility remains significant. The long-term logic lies in the protocol’s real profit-making ability and value return efficiency.
Market reaction has been quite restrained, without a frenzied pump, which feels more genuine. Paying attention to subsequent buyback progress and USDS growth data is much more interesting than just watching the price.
#PPI、CPI公布后，多家机构上调9月加息预期 #CLARITY替代修正案公布，贝森特呼吁参院推进 #星球日报 Recent capital data is increasingly noteworthy: 🔵 $ETH → +$216M 🟠 $BTC → -$13.29M 🟣 $HYPE → Funds remain cautious 🟡 $SOL → Flows are relatively limited On September 11, the ETH spot ETF attracted about $216M in net inflows in a single day, while BTC ETFs saw an outflow of about $13.29M, and BTC has recorded net outflows for the fourth consecutive day. This does not mean BTC has lost its core position. More interestingly, institutional funds are seeking opportunities among different crypto assets. BTC remains the market's main liquidity anchor, but ETH ETF funds have recently performed noticeably stronger. If this capital gap continues, ETH's strength relative to BTC may become a noteworthy rotation signal. 📊 I am now focusing more on three indicators: whether BTC ETF → has resumed net inflows; whether ETH ETF → $200M level funds can sustain; whether the relative strength of ETH/BTC → can continue to expand; On the macro side, rising oil prices and inflationary pressures continue to affect global risk assets, and the market is also waiting for the Fed's next policy signal, so single-day ETF flows are not enough to confirm the long-term trend. Capital flows are worth watching, but that doesn't mean immediate chasing. Sustained ETF inflows + ETH strengthening relative to BTC + improved market liquidity will make the narrative of "capital rotation" more convincing 📈 #DaWith weekend liquidity still relatively thin, there wasn't a fresh daily ETF settlement to analyze, so the latest meaningful flow picture remains from the previous reporting session. The recent trend has been mixed: 🟠 $BTC: roughly $250M+ in spot ETF net outflows during the latest session, bringing the multi-day withdrawal streak close to $400M. 🔵 $ETH: around $25M of net outflows in the same period, showing that institutional demand remains cautious. 🟣 $SOL: flows have cooled noticeably, witBrothers, today the most outrageous thing isn't BTC, but BTC holding steady nicely around 77K, while BSB and BEAT have crashed like dogs.
$BSB current price 0.0966, down 7.65%, smashed down from 0.1079. The biggest problem with new coins is liquidity; without funds to catch the fall, the slow decline just won't stop.
You can watch for a rebound around 0.094, but if it breaks below 0.092, exit.
BEAT is even worse, current price 0.0852, down 5.33%, smashed from 0.1070 down to 0.0805.
$RSR is only 14.94, already extremely oversold.
But brothers, oversold doesn't mean it will rise immediately; coins that have dropped 97% can still keep falling.
If you want to bet on a rebound, watch around 0.082, exit if it breaks 0.080.
Looking at $BTC again, it hovered around 77,327 all day, very stable. The market is still discussing ZEC mining profits, but for altcoins to recover, ultimately it still depends on BTC's mood.
Today's plan:
BTC: bullish around 77K, stop loss at 76,500, target 78,500.
BSB: watch at 0.094, stop loss 0.092, target 0.105.
BEAT: watch at 0.082, stop loss 0.080, target 0.095.
Final sentence:
Just because it’s crashed badly doesn’t mean you should bottom-fish.
For these new coins with poor liquidity, what you think is bottom-fishing might actually be catching a flying knife.
BSB and BEAT have fallen this badly, would you dare to catch them? Let's talk in the comments. I DON’T EXPECT THE MARKET TO FLUSH IMMEDIATELY.
There could be one more push higher first:
Rally → confidence grows → FOMO returns → traders get comfortable → then the flush.
If that happens, these are the levels I’ll watch:
🟠 $BTC → $74K
🟣 $ZEC → $750
🔵 $ETH → $2,350
🟢 $SOL → $95
⚫ $HYPE → $73
Scenario, not prediction. I’m tracking liquidity and structure while staying ready for either direction.
Patience > FOMO.

Current price is 0.07574, with a 24-hour range of 0.05810‑0.08675. VWAP14 position average price is 0.07811, and the current price is running below the cost line. Previously chased high positions are generally at a floating loss and trapped.
The one-hour KDJ only dropped to the oversold area to complete the stop decline, without forming a golden cross reversal. Currently, it is just a passive acceptance after the decline, not an active incremental buying attack. There is a large amount of relief selling pressure accumulated at 0.078‑0.080 above. A rebound to this position is likely to encounter selling pressure. Only a volume breakout above 0.08675 can fully open the bullish space.
The 0.070‑0.072 range is only psychological support, not heavy buying. The truly critical defense level is at 0.05810. Combined with the liquidity weekly report, the entire market is currently experiencing leveraged contraction, and altcoin bulls face increased liquidation pressure. $FLOCK relies on new coin hype for support but is unlikely to independently resist systemic risks of the broader market, most likely maintaining a range-bound consolidation.
The new contract order book depth is thin, with large slippage. Fake breakouts and two-way spikes will repeatedly occur. Do not rush to chase orders just because a single candlestick breaks the level. The oscillation center at 0.072‑0.078 has a poor risk-reward ratio; try to minimize frequent trading in this range.
For longs, prioritize waiting for a volume-supported break above resistance or a clear stop decline signal on a pullback to 0.058‑0.060; for shorts, wait for a rebound into the trapped zone with stagnation. Whether long or short, strict stop-loss settings are mandatory. #PPI、CPI公布后，多家机构上调9月加息预期 $ETH is currently consolidating around $2,545, up roughly 2.4% intraday after surviving the latest macro-driven volatility. This bounce looks more like a short squeeze than a genuine trend reversal. The inflation shock initially pushed traders into defensive positioning, but much of the bearish expectation had already been priced in. Once ETH reclaimed the $2,600 area, crowded shorts started getting squeezed, accelerating the move higher. But the problem appeared almost immediately: buyers could#日银年内再加息成焦点 The market is focusing on the Bank of Japan, with the policy meeting on September 18 widely expected to raise rates by 25 basis points, lifting the policy rate to 1.25%, with the possibility of further tightening within the year. Japan's inflation continues to stay above the 2% target, and wages are improving simultaneously, providing fundamental support for a rate hike.
The biggest risk this time comes from the massive yen carry trade. In the past, many institutions borrowed low-cost yen to allocate to US stocks, US bonds, crypto, and other overseas assets. Rate hikes increase financing costs, and if the yen strengthens rapidly, it will trigger concentrated unwinding of carry trades, with funds redeeming yen, indirectly putting draining pressure on global risk assets.
If the rate hike is implemented, the yen is very likely to be boosted, putting pressure on USD/JPY; the US-Japan interest rate differential will narrow further, which may also transmit volatility to US Treasury yields. For the crypto market, it may not crash directly, but one should be wary of the phased liquidity shocks caused by carry trade unwinding.
The key is not the single rate hike, but the subsequent policy signals from Kazuo Ueda. If the tone is hawkish, implying more hikes by year-end, global asset volatility will increase; if a more cautious stance is conveyed, the negative impact is likely to be fully priced in. $ETH $BTC $SOL Bitcoin is falling, but altcoin leverage has hit a historic high
For the first time since December 2024, the total open interest of altcoin contracts across the entire network has surpassed that of Bitcoin. What followed the last time this structure appeared? A chain liquidation
Bitcoin is currently stuck at the 50-week EMA of $77,000, which is the last line of defense for this cycle. The 10-year US Treasury yield is approaching 5%, and the probability of a rate hike in September has soared to 70%. Assets that do not generate cash flow have no competitiveness against a 5% risk-free return. ETFs have seen net outflows for four consecutive days, totaling over $449 million
But what is altcoin leverage doing? It's piling up
This means the market is using the highest leverage to bet on a macro environment that is the most unfavorable. The FOMC decision on September 16 has a 70% chance of a rate hike and zero chance of a rate cut. Leveraging up at such a time is not brave; it means not having experienced the liquidation round in December 2024
Some say funds are rotating from $BTC to $XRP and $SOL. Wintermute indeed said so. But rotation presupposes playing with existing funds, and existing funds cannot create a bull market, only structural squeezes. Altcoin holdings exceeding BTC precisely indicate that a large amount of capital is betting directionally with high leverage rather than genuine new inflows
I am not bearish long-term, but this structure is very dangerous in the short term. As soon as prices pull back slightly, chain forced liquidations will start, and the decline will be amplified by leverage. Those rushing into altcoins now are not betting on the narrative but on others not running first
Before September 16, hold your handsIf I had 1.1 million U, this is how I would deploy my strategy
Profit never comes from "diversification" piling up, but from structure. With 1.1 million U, I only do one thing: give every penny a clear mission.
400,000 U to $BTC — ballast stone
Build positions in batches between 76,000–78,000, no bottom guessing. Add once when it stands back at 80,000, chase again on a volume breakout above 83,000. Exit short-term positions unconditionally if it falls below 75,000. BTC's mission is not huge profits, but to keep me qualified to stay at the table.
250,000 U to $ETH — main attacker
Buy in batches between 2,450–2,550, add on a steady hold above 2,650. Targets first look at 2,900, then 3,100. Once ETH's capital elasticity returns, its speed will be faster than BTC.
250,000 U to $ZEC — trend position
Hold long above 1,150, halve position if it falls below 1,100, fully exit at 1,050. If volume breaks above 1,280, add instead of reducing. This position only follows trends, not beliefs.
120,000 U to $SOL — flexible position
Observe between 95–100, enter again after confirming strength above 105. No early ambush, only right-side trading.
50,000 U for BTC contract margin
Within 3x leverage, only follow the trend, no betting on data. Cut immediately if direction is wrong, add only if direction is right.
Remaining 30,000 U in cash
Wait for the FOMC-induced sell-off, that’s the real moment worth pulling the trigger.
Position size is not safer the bigger it is, but more lethal the clearer it is.
#OKX百万规划师 Web3j continuously adapts to Glamsterdam, indicating that ETH upgrades cannot only cater to crypto-native developers
Web3j has long served the Java, Kotlin, and Android ecosystems. The Ethereum Foundation's continued support for its adaptation to Glamsterdam shows that Ethereum upgrades need to cover more than just JavaScript wallets and crypto-native teams.
A large number of banks, enterprise backends, and mobile applications use the JVM technology stack. If these developers cannot smoothly integrate the new rules, even if Ethereum's underlying upgrade succeeds, there may be a disconnect at the enterprise application layer.
Tool libraries need to update gas estimation, transaction formats, node interfaces, and testing environments so developers don't have to understand all protocol changes from scratch. Once the underlying complexity is properly encapsulated, applications have the chance to upgrade seamlessly.
For institutional adoption of $ETH, this kind of maintenance work is more fundamental than launching another conceptual project. Enterprises won't rewrite their tech stack just because the roadmap looks good; they need stable, familiar, and continuously maintained interfaces.
The real ecological moat is often not the flashiest new features, but the tools that everyone depends on and that rarely make the news, maintained over the long term.Let's talk about an increasingly surreal trick in the AI circle: Nvidia is rumored to be the anchor investor for Anthropic's IPO, investing up to 10 billion, and Anthropic then uses that money to buy Nvidia's cards. Think about this circle carefully — I invest in you, you buy from me, the reported revenue and profits all look good on paper, but essentially it's the same money circulating among insiders. When an industry's growth depends on invoicing each other to prop it up, the valuation should be questioned. Lagarde already said last night that the AI sector could pull back at any time. As the twin brother of risk assets, $BTC will need to stay on edge next week. How long do you think this cycle can keep spinning? $ETH is currently consolidating around $2,545, up roughly 2.4% intraday after surviving the latest macro-driven volatility. This bounce looks more like a short squeeze than a genuine trend reversal. The inflation shock initially pushed traders into defensive positioning, but much of the bearish expectation had already been priced in. Once ETH reclaimed the $2,600 area, crowded shorts started getting squeezed, accelerating the move higher. But the problem appeared almost immediately: buyers could$LSK doubled overnight, but this is not the beginning of the story, rather a dangerous warning.
When LSK reached 0.52, many thought they saw an opportunity, but it was more like a "last frenzy." Three charts explain: a massive vertical surge on the 15-minute chart, 26 million U liquidated in 24 hours ranking first across the network, and a clear bearish divergence appearing on the daily chart.
The truth behind this rally is far less rosy than the market looks.
The chain is shutting down, 25% of tokens will be burned, and as soon as the news came out, shorts were immediately crushed. But looking closely at the data: net inflow in 24 hours is minimal, even showing net outflow. What does this mean? The surge is mostly from shorts stopping out, not new money coming in.
Lisk does have its history—a 2016 legacy project, Ethereum L2, focused on emerging market developers. But after October 31, this chain will be gone, and the token’s nature will turn into "enterprise points." Those long-term ecological values are no longer important now.
My trading approach:
1. Don’t chase. Vertical surges are casino games, not trading opportunities.
2. If holding spot, consider taking profits in batches, set stop losses properly, don’t let gains turn back into principal.
3. If planning to open positions, stay cautious in extreme conditions, with support levels around 0.42–0.35.
The more violently a coin rises, the more ruthless it is when it turns. Don’t get blinded by this single bullish candle.
#LSK #OKX星球 #TradingStrategy #RiskWarningA note to Bitcoiners following the Metaplanet situation.
If you bought Bitcoin because you wanted a scarce asset that noone can dilute out from under you, the last few weeks should be treated as a case study.
Metaplanet is useful precisely because the story is now public.
🟧 A share in a Bitcoin treasury company is not Bitcoin. 🟧
It is a claim on a corporation that has:
1. A capital structure. Common equity, preferreds, convertibles, warrants, employee insurance company.
#DailyOrbit Altcoins are moving, but I’m not calling altseason yet.
$ETH → showing strength
$SOL → gaining momentum
$XRP → holding up well
$BNB → also seeing buyers
But the bigger picture matters.
$BTC is still around $77K, and capital hasn’t rotated broadly enough to confirm a full altcoin breakout.
For me, the signal is simple:
BTC stabilizes → ETH leads → major alts follow → then smaller caps get attention.
Until that rotation becomes broader, I’d rather be selective than chase every green candle. 📊 The three major assets are currently at critical positions, but their strength and weakness are not exactly the same. 🟠 $BTC → Market Direction Anchor BTC is still consolidating near $77K. If it can break through again and hold above $80K–$81K, market risk appetite may further rebound; Conversely, if key support is breached, volatility in ETH and SOL may be amplified. 🔵 $ETH → Pressure Gradually Builds Up After a rapid earlier rise, ETH entered a consolidation phase and recently pulled back from around $2,564. $2,350–$2,360 remains an important defensive zone for daily structure. 🟡 $SOL → High Beta Elasticity Awaiting Confirmation SOL remains a key indicator of market risk appetite, but liquidity is not fully supportive. In the week before September 4, Solana ETF saw a net inflow of about $6.2M, a sharp drop from about $153.9M the previous week, indicating that institutional funds are clearly cooling their pursuit of high-beta assets. Currently, the signals I'm more focused on are: BTC breakout → ETH confirmation, → SOL acceleration. If BTC regains above $80K, ETH breaks through $2.6K, and SOL climbs back above $105, the market will have more reason to discuss a broader expansion in risk appetite. But if BTC comes under pressure again near key resistance, it wouldn't be surprising if ETH and SOL return to their respective ranges. Additionally, global risk assets have recently been pressured by inflation and oil pricesHere's a hard dark line for those only watching $BTC candlesticks tonight: U.S. diesel prices have hit another record, with the national average soaring to just over six dollars per gallon, a historic high. This is not an isolated figure—Middle East disruptions are affecting fuel supply, and diesel underpins the costs of harvesting, transportation, and the entire agricultural chain. If it doesn't come down, inflation won't be contained. The market shouted "bad news is priced in" this week and bounced a bit, but what the FOMC will really be watching next Tuesday is this kind of sticky, high-level inflation. Don't rush to treat a rebound candlestick as a reversal. Do you think this round of rate hikes has already become a "must-do"?I finally realized that the most costly thing in trading is not losing money.
I used to think the hardest part of trading was predicting the rise and fall.
Later I found out:
The hardest part is being right but not making money.
Not daring to chase when prices rise, not daring to buy when prices fall, taking profits quickly, but stubbornly holding onto losses.
When the real big market moves come, you realize you've been waiting for a "certain opportunity."
But the market never waits for your certainty.
Now I only understand one thing:
Trading doesn't have to win every time.
What matters is——
When a real opportunity appears, you are still in the game.Morning session analysis
On the 1-hour chart, the previous large range shows internal highs and lows scattered without a clear one-sided tilt, indicating a trendless balanced oscillation. After a sudden vertical spike with a long wick at the top, there was a rapid pullback without directly forming a sustained bullish structure. The current market is in a secondary corrective wave following the impulse peak, no longer a simple retracement but building a small secondary-level box below the long upper shadow. The biggest difference from last time is that after this pullback, there was no immediate continuous decline. The candlesticks closed above the body of the impulse large bullish candle with higher highs and lows on a smaller time scale, representing a resistance-type consolidation after the spike. During the surge, open interest rapidly soared, indicating short-term funds concentrated on opening positions for speculation. During the price pullback phase, open interest did not collapse all at once; the decline in open interest was less than the price retracement, indicating that besides profit-taking by chasing bulls, some shorts placed orders at high levels to speculate on the pullback. Bulls and bears formed a turnover at the high level, not simply bulls closing positions and leaving. A slight rebound in open interest means that within the current small range oscillation, bulls and bears continue to increase positions at high levels for speculation. During the impulse surge phase, active buying exploded, and when the price spiked and pulled back, the CVD slightly declined but the bottom rose, not falling back to the baseline before the breakout. This signal is critical: although the price retraced, the net active buying volume did not completely disappear, indicating that the main bullish force did not withdraw all at once but paused the attack and entered a phase of capital observation and digestion. If the subsequent small range oscillation continues, with CVD no longer declining continuously, OI maintaining a high-level slight oscillation, and candlesticks consistently holding above the impulse bullish candle body, there is a chance to challenge the long upper shadow high again.Brothers, the God of Wealth really has arrived! $BEAT short positions continue to profit, entry average price 0.0931, current price 0.0856, already gained 24.16%, steady happiness!
Let's first look at the current market data. After BEAT rebounded to around 0.093, it immediately turned downwards. There are 220,000 sell orders stacked at 0.0860, 230,000 at 0.0859, and another 220,000 at 0.0857. The selling pressure is like a mountain, the buying side can't push through at all. The long-short ratio is 64% to 36%, bulls are still charging in, but such an extremely crowded long structure will cause a stampede once the trend reverses.
The fundamentals need no further explanation. On August 1st, 21.25 million tokens were unlocked, worth 67.78 million USD, accounting for 6.87% of the circulating supply. The project only buys back and burns 800,000 tokens weekly, the unlocked amount is more than 26 times the weekly burn, which is unsustainable. This coin has crashed from $11.57 in June down to around 0.08, a drop of over 99%, with all overhead positions trapped above; any rebound is just giving money to the shorts.
From a technical perspective, 0.0860 is short-term resistance; if it can't break through, the next support is 0.08, and if that breaks, then 0.075. This rally is entirely driven by leverage, funding rates are still positive, and those chasing longs are still paying fees to hold positions, but the longer they hold, the harder it gets.
I’m holding my $BEAT short positions, waiting for it to fall into place before taking profits. This kind of speculative coin can only be shorted at high levels; when it rises, it’s just giving money away. Brothers, follow along! $ETH $BTC
#PPI、CPI公布后，多家机构上调9月加息预期 I came across an interview where Jensen Huang directly responded to the "AI circular financing" criticism, and I almost laughed out loud — isn't this just the "ecosystem closed loop" that the crypto world has played to death, just dressed up in a high-end AI shell?
There's a joke going around in the circle: VCs pour huge money into AI startups, which then turn around and spend all that money buying Nvidia chips; Nvidia's revenue soars and stock price takes off, the valuation of the AI companies in the VCs' hands rises accordingly, they then launch the next round of financing, and turn around to buy more chips. In the whole cycle, only Jensen Huang makes guaranteed profits, while everyone else is just blowing bubbles, hence the nickname "AI perpetual motion machine."
The doubts have been noisy for half a year, and finally Jensen came out to confront them, saying something very Versailles-like: "We invest 1 dollar and get back 100 dollars, and you call that circular financing? If so, bring more of it." I was stunned — so not only does he not deny it, he even thinks the profit is too little.
Speaking of which, I once jumped in to buy NVDA for a few days, made enough for two hotpot meals, and then sold. At the time, I slapped my thigh thinking I sold too early. Looking back now, whether it's circular or a bubble, just jump in when the bubble is biggest and don't take it seriously. It's just like trading Meme coins back in the day — you know they have no real value, but it doesn't stop you from making some pocket money. The worst thing is to start believing in it yourself.
This matter is also quite interesting:
1. History always repeats itself with a new skin. The Ponzi scheme logic of the crypto world, dressed in AI chip clothing, has somehow become a trillion-dollar capital story.
2. Don't get hung up on whether it's a bubble. When there's a story to tell and money flowing in, it's a good phase. When everyone is shouting "this is a value revolution," that's when you should run.
3. Don't get too emotionally involved in stock trading. The stories companies tell are meant to boost stock prices, not to be your faith to hold onto.
$NVDA $ETH I’m watching $ZEC after a strong daily run toward $1,298. Price is now around $1,135, sitting near the MA10 at $1,134 while still well above the MA20 at $983. That keeps the broader structure bullish, but momentum has cooled from the peak. I’d like to see ZEC reclaim $1,150 first, then challenge $1,200–$1,298. Losing $1,100 could signal deeper consolidation before another move higher. I’m not chasing; confirmation matters before entering. Weekend funds are once again looking for a breakthrough point. Who will ignite the market first among DOGE, SUI, and ZEC?
#After the release of PPI and CPI, multiple institutions have raised their expectations for a September rate hike
The market looks like a racetrack before noon on the weekend; the engines are already warmed up, but the green light hasn't come on yet—DOGE, SUI, and ZEC are all waiting for the funding signal in their positions. During the low volume phase, sudden breakouts are most likely, but breaking out doesn't mean winning. Whoever can hold on after the first wave of rally is the one who can truly lift short-term sentiment.
#BTC spot ETF outflows near $450 million in three days
$DOGE remains the most direct sentiment thermometer. Usually, it can be dull, but once volume expands, chasing rallies often come fastest; SUI is more like a high-beta attacker—if the overall market holds steady, it easily becomes the first stop for funds seeking volatility; ZEC has its own rhythm. Once privacy coin sentiment heats up, it might even move before mainstream coins, but after breaking out, it must quickly lock in chips.
The bulls are waiting for three moves: DOGE's volume suddenly expands, $SUI breaks out and holds on the pullback, and ZEC eats through the overhead sell orders. If any two occur, weekend risk appetite may continue to rise; the bears are waiting for a false breakout in SUI and then watching if DOGE's sentiment market retreats.
Looking ahead, upward moves mean DOGE ignites, SUI accelerates, and $ZEC breaks out early; downward moves mean DOGE deflates first, and SUI falls back to the consolidation zone. The most costly mistake this weekend isn't missing the first move, but seeing the first move and then being unable to resist catching the last leg.🌞$FLOCK Review｜From yesterday 18:00 contract opening until now

After such a powerful run, the probability of distribution and aggressive profit-taking naturally increases. The current structure looks more like a market entering its late-stage phase rather than the beginning of a fresh long-term trend. Short-term pumps can still happen, especially when liquidity suddenly enters the market, but expecting LAB to reproduce iHere's a counterintuitive tip for reading the market: over the weekend, $BTC, $ETH, and $SOL all stayed flat with pitifully low volatility. Many people fixate on this flat candle and start guessing the direction. I advise you not to guess. Prices without volume are essentially words no one responds to—they just hang there and don't count. Weekend low-volume sideways trading, whether it ticks up or down a bit, shouldn't be taken as a signal. Real price discovery only begins next week when funds return and the FOMC reveals its decision. What should you really do at times like this? Let go of the mouse. Are you waiting for a signal tonight, or are you just creating anxiety?PPI and CPI remain strong, with expectations for a rate hike in September rising.
BTC has lost momentum near 80K; every rally feels like a test, volume can't keep up, and the bulls get taken out by the bears at the highs.
ETH is weaker, the exchange rate is sluggish, and the ecosystem narrative is currently unable to drive the price.
But there is a subtle signal—
BTC ETF outflows have continued for four consecutive days, with only 13.29 million out on Friday, a sharp 95% drop from 283 million the day before. Outflows have clearly slowed. On the ETH side, it's even more dramatic, with a net inflow of 216 million on the same day, marking four consecutive weeks of weekly net inflows. Funds are rotating from BTC to ETH.
Looking at the market:
$BTC at 77,200, support at 76,000, resistance between 78,000-80,000.
$ETH at 2,520, support at 2,500, resistance between 2,600-2,700.
After ZEC's big rise, the risk of profit-taking is increasing; I remain bearish.
Next, watch three things:
Whether CPI and PPI confirm cooling; whether ETF outflows have ended; and whether BTC can hold key moving averages with volume. Missing any one of these means only light positions should be taken.
The probability of a rate hike is 90%, with two days left until the FOMC, but even a 90% hike probability hasn't shaken the market; holding 76,000 shows the bottom support is strong.
My approach: gradually buy low around 76,000/2,500, after the FOMC event, if the bad news is fully priced in, expect a possible rally; keep light positions with stop-loss.
#PPI、CPI公布后，多家机构上调9月加息预期
#BTC现货ETF三日流出近4.5亿美元 US diesel breaks $6, $BTC has another headache
#US diesel price breaks $6 for the first time
This time in the US, it's not just that oil prices are high; even the lifeblood of the transportation economy is becoming ridiculously expensive.
According to GasBuddy data, the national average price of diesel in the US has surpassed $6 per gallon, reaching about $6.06, marking the first time in history. At the same time last year, it was only around $3.71, an increase of over 60% in one year.
Diesel is different from regular gasoline.
Trucks, agricultural machinery, logistics, railways, and construction equipment all heavily rely on diesel. When diesel prices rise, the cost of transporting goods from warehouses to supermarkets also goes up, which easily trickles down to food and product prices.
In the US August CPI, other motor fuels including diesel have already increased 9.6% month-over-month, and 44% year-over-year.
Wow, with PPI just heating up and core CPI higher than expected, now diesel hitting a historic high again, the Federal Reserve’s confidence in saying inflation is fully under control will only weaken.
The market currently prices in over an 80% chance of a 25 basis point rate hike in September.
So this issue won’t show up as diesel rising and the coin immediately dropping for BTC.
The real trouble lies in the chain reaction that follows.
Energy costs remain high, inflation becomes harder to reduce, the Fed finds it harder to ease, and US Treasury yields are more likely to stay elevated.
For BTC to reclaim $80,000 now, it requires not only buying pressure within the crypto community.
External inflation, preferably, should not continue to add fuel to the fire.
