When the pineapple-haired 🍍 guy saw the words "pause airstrikes," his first reaction wasn't positive news. First, let's confirm: has the Strait of Hormuz actually opened?
Currently, the U.S. has indeed suspended a new round of airstrikes on Iran, and both sides are discussing the issue of navigation through diplomatic channels, but this is not a formal ceasefire nor a final agreement 🤷
The focus of the negotiations is to reduce Iran's restrictions on ship passage, allowing energy transport to gradually resume. The Strait of Hormuz handles about one-fifth of the world's oil transport, and once navigation resumes, the war premium on oil prices may truly decrease
🍍 The problem is that the situation has not fully cooled down
Although the U.S. military has suspended airstrikes, the maritime blockade of Iran continues; The conflict has also spread to the Red Sea and Caspian Sea, with the Houthis attacking Saudi energy facilities
So now, I won't judge that oil prices will immediately return to normal just because of a "pause in airstrikes."
🍍 I will continue to look at three things:
First, has a formal navigation agreement for the straits appeared?
Second, can the tanker steadily resume navigation, rather than just verbal release?
Third, will there be new attacks on energy facilities in the Red Sea and Saudi Arabia?
It's also simple for crypto users,
When the strait truly resumes navigation, oil prices and inflationary pressures ease, making it easier for U.S. Treasury yields to fall.
If only a few days of air raids are suspended but shipping and energy facilities remain unsafe, the market may quickly re-trade risksAlert🚨 (Compiled from the latest news, Original: @尘歌壶来) (Summary and analysis results at the end for quick reference) 1. Real readings from the derivatives side according to Coinglass: RE perpetual latest price 0.6046, down 7.77% in 24 hours, futures trading volume $103.6 million, spot trading volume $33.84 million, open interest $38.05 million. Funding rates are negative on most platforms across the network—Binance -0.0990%, Bybit -0.1029%, Gate -0.0982%, MEXC -0.0986%, only HTX slightly positive at 0.0050%. Sharpe Terminal aggregates 9 platforms: Gate, Bitget, BingX, KuCoin, OKX, MEXC, Binance all have "shorts paying fees," Bybit slightly "longs paying fees." Translated into on-chain language: shorts are paying rent to hold positions; this is not "shorts taking profit to suppress prices," but "bears betting but accumulating costs"—once the price reverses, negative funding rates will accelerate short covering. 2. Misalignment in liquidation structure: 24-hour total network liquidations $911,300, longs $474,700, shorts $436,600, almost evenly split. 1-hour liquidation volume nearly equal at $44,800 (longs $22,700 / shorts $22,100) Alert 🚨 (compiled from the latest news, original: Chenge Hulai) (summary at the end can be viewed directly for analysis). Let's first recalculate the scale. The user's 0.38-0.55 support and resistance framework corresponds to BEAT's early micro-cap phase. However, the latest CoinGlass aggregation shows Audiera BEAT's current price is $2.2789, a 24-hour surge of 37.26%, with 288 million tokens in circulation, market cap $647 million, and open interest in contracts $145 million 24-hour contract turnover $5.755 billion, spot traded $191 million. The 0.38-0.55 in user data has already been left ten streets behind by the market—this article can't be written as the original framework of "buy the dip 0.38-0.40"; that's Kezhou Qiujian. 1-hour chart spot price around 2.28 is fiercely contested, 24-hour range is 1.60-2.40, single-day volatility nearly 50%. Public aggregated long-short ratio: mainstream platform large players' long-short ratio is between 0.95-1.08 (neutral to slightly bullish). Binance's top traders' long-short ratio reached 1.47 (slightly bullish), while OKX's account long-short ratio was only 0.57 (slightly bearish). Large players split, retail investors are bearish—a typical 'smart money buys, retail investors chase shorts' eve squeeze structure. 24-hour liquidation data reveals the truth: 1.325 million USD was liquidated across the network, of which 1.253 million were short liquidations (94.6%). As prices rose, bears were heavily triggered. The peak liquidation occurred in 7Poolin was once the largest Bitcoin mining pool and is now filing for bankruptcy
Poolin, which once controlled nearly 20% of Bitcoin's hashrate, has fallen into Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings, with debts reaching $173 million. This was a brutal decline, but headlines alone don't tell you how much of the debt has already been priced in by the market.
The only real offer currently on the table is: acquiring a mining site in Texas for $52 million—just a small fraction of what creditors are owed. At the current $BTC levels level, mining profit margins are thin, and this case will test how much residual value a once-dominant mining pool still retains in bankruptcy.
For $BTC, this is more like an emotional headline than a structural change. When a pool collapses, hash rate is quickly reallocated. The real question is: will this trigger broader pressure among miners with similar leverage characteristics—$ETH $DOGE #以太坊验证者退出队列已降至零 #以太坊验证者退出队列已降至零 #初请18 7,000 below expectations, with interest rates under pressure 🟩 $DOGE LONG SETUP

#EarningsRealityCheck #CLARITYActStalled #USIranStrikePause $DOGE Alert 🚨 (compiled from the latest news. Original: @尘歌壶来) The current price is consolidating at 58.79, holding above the 1-hour MA20 at 58.46. 58.97 is the intraday high + first supply wall, and 59.48 is the hard upper limit of the 4-hour Bollinger upper band. The 1-hour chart is at EMA7/EMA25 consolidating, so the short-term direction hasn't been selected. However, the 50-day EMA overlaps at 58.94 and the 58-60 support zone, so the institutional cost anchor is under pressure. On the contract side of public aggregation, HYPE's perpetual comprehensive long-short ratio is 1.03, funding rate +0.0042%, indicating traders remain bullish. But in the past 24 hours, the entire network was liquidated by $14.92 million, with long positions surging 14.71 million and short positions only 200,000—the long explosion is 70 times the short explosion, indicating that the rebound between 58 and 60 was driven out by long positions, not by short positions. The skeleton's reading—"long positions increased to 123, short positions decreased, and the entry price for big players was 59.87"—matched this reading: institutional investors accumulated shares at 58-60, while leveraged retail long positions were spot-cleaned above 59. The on-chain deflation engine data needs to be considered separately; it is HYPE's fatal weakness compared to other platforms: protocol daily fee revenue ranges between 1 million and 2 million USD, 30-day fees are 65.9 million USD, and the annualized run rate is about 828 million USD. 99% of protocol revenue is used to buy back HYPE on the open market and send it to the burn address. So far, a total of 46.8 million+ HYPE tokens have been burned, accounting for about 4.6% of the initial total supply, resulting in a decrease in circulating supplyAlert 🚨 (compiled from the latest news, original: @尘歌壶来) (summary at the end can be viewed directly for analysis) 1. The unlock clock sounds before the price. According to RootData, it was forwarded by ChainCatcher that ZAMA will unlock about 279.58 million tokens at 0:00 Beijing time on July 2, with a valuation of approximately $8.69 million. Total supply is 11 billion tokens, currently circulating 2.2 billion tokens, with a circulation rate of only 20%. A single unlock accounts for about 12.7% of circulation—a major supply event for small-cap FHE targets. The unlock curve shows 20% of the team, 30% of VC+ angels, and 20% of the foundation, totaling 70% still locked. The rules are: 1 year cliff for teams + 4 years of linearity, with investors continuously releasing. July 2 is just the beginning; the real long-term selling pressure will last for years, but the sharpest short-term blade will be this week. 2. On-chain evidence of large players turning net short sellers shows a 25% decrease in the long-short ratio given by user skeletons and a shift to net short dominance, consistent with publicly available on-chain data. Third-party on-chain monitoring shows ZAMA holds about 2,672 to 2,679 addresses, with the top 10 addresses concentrated as high as 97%—a typical small-cap, high-control structure. KOLs hold only 3 addresses, accounting for 0.065%. Although Smart Money addresses have made a small entrance, the scale is limited.

Jensen may be right about AI. But the risk of concentration is real
$BTC BTC's sideways trading structure has partially diverged into valuation offenses, but the derivatives market has yet to price in tail concentration risks.
In current price action, which expectations have already been overleverened, and which positions are exposed to the vulnerability of a direction reversal?
- The original post observed that market funds are highly concentrated in a few tokens: BTC serves as a liquidity anchor, ETH represents institutional interest, SOL plays a high beta role, TAO and WLD lead the AI track, HYPE maps risk appetite, and DOGE and ZEC reflect retail sentiment. This stratification itself has been partially reflected in price, but the part not yet priced in is whether, under divergence, the implied volatility and funding rates in the derivatives market have become overly concentrated in a few positions.
- Key changes in the current market structure: net spot inflows are concentrated in small-cap tokens like JELLYJELLY, OPG, SLX, while momentum from tokens like BEAT, EDGE, TRUMP, and VIRTUAL is declining. This extreme divergence means that market makers and leveraged traders may overconcentrate their positions in the same direction (such as going long on strong coins or short on weak ones), increasing skew risk in the derivatives market.
- Transmission logic: If BTC remains sideways, leverage costs (funding rates) may remain positive on strong coins, attracting more arbitrageurs. However, once BTC experiences directional fluctuations (such as breaking through key support), concentrated long positions face chain liquidation pressure, which in turn amplifies selling of weak coins through the BTC-ETH-altcoin liquidity transmission chain. Conversely, if BTC breaks upward, leveraged long positions in strong coins may accelerate further gains, but liquidity depletion in weak coins remains difficult to alleviate.
- Biased bullish path and conditions: BTC must break through and hold above previous highs (e.g., above $73,000), driving funding rates up moderately rather than extremes, while ETH needs to show sustained signals of institutional buying (e.g., continuous expansion of net ETF inflows). In this scenario, strong AI sectors (TAO, WLD) and high-beta assets (SOL, HYPE) may undergo valuation repricing.
- Bearish risk and conditions: If BTC repeatedly fails to test the $68,000-70,000 range, or if the funding rate surges to a historic high on strong coins (annualized 50%+), it will trigger a double kill between long and short. The tail risk lies in the concentration of liquidity among small-cap coins leading to market makers exiting, triggering a liquidity exhaustion event similar to June 2023.
- Key validation signals: Whether the BTC perpetual contract funding rate for Binance and Bybit has exceeded 0.01% for three consecutive days; Whether the open interest of strong coins (such as JELLYJELLY, OPG) increases against the trend when prices stagnate; Is the ETH/BTC exchange rate stabilizing above 0.05?
Conclusion: The current market has price differentiation, but the derivatives market has not yet experienced the vulnerability of centralized positions under price differentiation. Patiently waiting for funding rates to return to neutral, or for BTC to give clear direction, is more in line with risk management discipline than chasing short-term momentum. The risk lies in the possibility that centralized leverage may be exposed before the direction is chosen.

The term "phased shutdown," once spoken by a crypto exchange, is basically equivalent to admitting the situation is out of control. The remaining question is never "to close or not," but "what posture to close."
BitMart announced it will cease trading by August 26, 2026, and completely shut down platform operations in January. The trigger seemed clear: BMX tokens plummeted, and users began complaining that withdrawals were delayed. However, writing the cause and effect as "the token price crashed so the platform can't continue" probably overestimates the credit that platform token should have carried—it has never truly been a risk isolation layer, more like a gas meter leaking preemptively.
Withdrawal delays have never been accidental technical failures encountered by crypto exchanges. It is the first visible sign of a liquidity crack, first one or two hours, then a day or two, and finally customer service only replies "Processing it." BitMart did not publicly explain the specific reasons for the delay, nor did it provide proof of reserves or custody, only providing a closure timeline. Based solely on this, we shouldn't rush to interpret "gradual" as "orderly."
A common reversal approach is: exchanges that openly admit difficulties and provide timelines are always more sincere than those that simply cut the network cables. This logic can only be understood as "relative goodwill," but when it comes to asset security, "relative goodwill" does not provide any hard constraints. History repeatedly reminds us that many platforms, under the smoke of "orderly liquidation," end up leaving users with a reversed account balance and an email that never responds to them. BitMart's closure plan spanned nearly half a year, and the extended window itself was both an opportunity for users and a buffer for itself—as for what buffer it was, not a word was mentioned.
The BMX token crash is a driving event, but more attention should be paid to whether there was hidden leverage in the staking mechanism and market-making structure before the crash. Currently, there is no public data to determine whether BMX's crash directly triggered the exchange's repayment gap; it can only be said that the timing of the two is like tightly tightened gears. The only certainty is: the token crashes first, then withdrawals get stuck, and then the platform announces closure. The sequence of arrangements carries strong signaling significance, and there is no need to use announcements to justify the crisis.
Evidence from the opposing side is also easy to find. BitMart still allows withdrawals, which are slow but not completely locked; Its closure announcement was flat-tone, implying it would "assist users with asset management." If a large number of users successfully withdraw funds in the coming months and evidence of ongoing payments can be found on-chain, then the "gradual closure" might shed its past notoriety in the industry. But you must distinguish between "can be picked" and "you can pick up." Delayed arrival itself is a kind of liquidity rationing: just because someone can withdraw doesn't mean everyone can.
The subsequent indicators were more honest than any statement: whether there was a unilateral early termination of trading before August 26, whether withdrawal thresholds were secretly raised, whether BMX prices remained near zero, whether the team had publicly responded to any specific payment plan—and most importantly, whether a large number of real users confirmed their full withdrawals. Without these, any "gradual closure" narrative is just bubbles like a drowning person grabbing driftwood.
The exchange is free to go bankrupt, but users cannot afford to trust easily. BitMart's timeline is a question mark, not a guarantee. Don't wait until the ship sinks to study the number of lifeboat seats; now is the time to check if you're already standing at the edge of the deck.Alert 🚨 (compiled from the latest news. Original: @尘歌壶来) The current price is consolidating near 0.946. Daily RSI(7) is 76.93, RSI (14) is 73.74. Momentum is strong, but all cycles are in stretch zones. A pause or retest does not break the trend, but caution is advised with intraday moves. The previous daily candle closed at 0.999, close to the 1.00 confirmation threshold, with the spot market reference at 0.953. After the sharp rise, the structure remains positive, but after unlocking, volatility amplifies in both directions. What truly determines KAITO's short-term fate is not the resistance from users at 1.07, but the unlock clock. On-chain circulation is visible. On July 20, Core Contributors scheduled to release 17.6 million KAITO, equivalent to about $16.8 million at market price, a cyclical unlock around the 20th of each month. Daily spot trading volume was $38.3 million, more than twice the market value of a single unlock, providing a sufficient but limited buffer. The problem isn't this time, but in circulation rate—currently circulating 241 million out of a total of 1 billion, with a circulation rate of 24.1%. Continued unlocking in the future will be due to structural selling pressure. Contract-side liquidation structure must align with the skeleton: Coinglass's liquidation heatmap clearly states that 0.85 is the liquidity threshold for KAITO/USDT. Within 24 hours, the entire network was liquidated $199,600, with 154,500 long positions and 45,000 short positions, with long positions accounting for 77.42%—the leveraged long positions were washed out in the pullback mode, and the skeleton's daily RSI was overbought#Majority Leader Says CLARITY Unlikely to Pass Before Recess
The US crypto regulatory bill CLARITY faces new challenges again.
John Thune, the US Senate Majority Leader, recently stated that the likelihood of the CLARITY bill passing before the August congressional recess is low. This means the regulatory benefits the market previously anticipated may be further delayed, and the crypto industry will continue to face policy uncertainty in the short term.
The slowdown in the bill's progress is not due to a change in the direction of digital asset regulation, but because significant disagreements remain between the two parties over certain provisions.
Currently, the disputes mainly focus on digital asset ethics clauses, the division of enforcement authority, and arrangements related to stablecoin interests. Democrats believe the current constraints are insufficient, while Republicans want to quickly push for a unified digital asset regulatory framework. Both sides are still seeking a compromise that can be accepted.
Meanwhile, the banking industry has also expressed concerns about some stablecoin provisions, fearing that funds might further flow into the stablecoin system, putting pressure on traditional bank deposits, which complicates the coordination of the bill.
From the market performance perspective, investors have already begun to reprioritize.
Previously, the market generally believed CLARITY would be implemented quickly this year. Now, as the time window narrows, expectations for regulatory benefits have clearly cooled. For mainstream crypto assets like $BTC and $ETH, this means a lack of new policy catalysts in the short term, and market sentiment may continue to be affected.
However, I believe the delay of CLARITY does not mean a reversal in the direction of US regulation.
Whether legislation is completed this year or next, the overall direction of establishing a digital asset regulatory system in the US has not changed. More institutional funds are entering the crypto market, and traditional financial institutions continue to advance their layouts in tokenized assets, stablecoins, and digital asset services. The implementation of the regulatory framework is only a matter of time.
For investors, the short-term focus should be on whether the bill can get a new voting arrangement and whether the two parties can make a breakthrough before the recess; the long-term focus should be on whether increased regulatory certainty in the US will attract more institutional funds into the market.
Therefore, the real impact of the CLARITY bill is not on the long-term value of $BTC, but on market sentiment and capital flow rhythm.
Regulation can be delayed, but the trend toward industry compliance has not changed. What truly determines the next market cycle remains global liquidity, institutional capital inflows, and long-term capital allocation after the regulatory framework is finally implemented.
$LAB South Korean pension funds finally bought back Korean stocks in July.
According to Korea Exchange data, as of July 24, pension funds had net purchases of 68.4 billion Korean won in Korean stocks, marking the first time this year that they had turned net buying, following 10 consecutive weeks of selling positions.
Buying is also concentrated in SK Hynix. In previous weeks, the market repeatedly traded fears that the National Pension Fund would sell 74 trillion KRW, but after the rebalancing window opened, institutions actually picked up chip stocks during pullbacks.
What I find interesting is this: the capital attitude has shifted from "rebalancing positions" to "buying back at low levels."
Bears have their reasons; 68.4 billion KRW is not large for KOSPI, and a monthly net buy does not prove a trend reversal. Next, let's look at two numbers: whether net buying continued in August, and whether SK Hynix remains the top buying direction.
Fat friends, just because institutions dare to take the flying knife doesn't mean the knife has already landed.
#韩国股市 #韩股 #SK海力士⚡ $PIEVERSE In-depth Analysis: Opportunities and Risks from a Bearish Perspective
1. Market Overview
$PIEVERSE experienced dramatic fluctuations within the 15-minute cycle, currently quoted at 0.7474 USDT, with a single-day increase of 16.39%. The recent high reached 0.9929, the low was at 0.6216, and the price remains within a wide range of fluctuations. Trading volume was 359,952,000, significantly below the average level, indicating insufficient capital follow-up.
2. Technical diagnosis
Moving average signals: MA(7)=0.7760, MA(30)=0.8785, short-term moving averages crossing below long-term moving averages, indicating a weak trend.
Candlestick pattern: surging then pulling back, a typical "false breakout" pattern, indicating heavy selling pressure above.
RSI indicators: 13.23, 25.24, 39.08, all in a severely oversold range. There may be a technical rebound in the short term, but overall momentum is insufficient.
Volatility: High volatility, extremely risky short-term trading.
3. Macro and sentiment aspects
Market sentiment: Panic selling is evident, investor confidence is lacking.
External environment: The US dollar index is stable, risk appetite is declining, and funds remain cautious about highly volatile assets.
4. Traders' practical perspectives
I opened a short position at 0.812 USDT, currently with a floating profit of 97.59%. This operation is based on the following logic:
The signal for a sharp rise and pullback is clear: the price quickly surged and then quickly pulled back, indicating heavy selling pressure above.
Insufficient trading volume: The rise lacks capital support, making a false breakout highly likely.
Sentiment is bearish: Under panic sentiment, funds tend to flow out rather than in.
The profit from this short position validates the coexistence of risks and opportunities during periods of high market volatility.
5. Risk Warning
Although the RSI is oversold, it may fall into the "oversold trap," with risks of further decline.
Insufficient trading volume and lack of capital support for rebounds.
Short-term volatility is volatile and prone to false rebounds.
6. Strategic Recommendations
Short-term trading: Participate cautiously; if you rebound, strictly stop losses (recommended stop-loss below 0.72).
Mid-term strategy: Wait for prices to stabilize and increase trading volume before considering entry.
Risk control: Position should not exceed 20% of total funds, avoiding heavy positions during periods of high volatility.
📌 Summary: $PIEVERSE The current trend is full of uncertainty, with both the possibility of a short-term rebound and the risk of further decline. My short trading has achieved significant unrealized profits, but that doesn't mean the market will keep falling. For traders, this is a stage where "panic and opportunity coexist," with the key being position management and disciplined execution.1. Real-time Price (July 26, 22:40) • Current price: $1886, 24-hour increase about +1.3%, intraday fluctuation range 1860–$1898, overall slight rebound • 24-hour turnover about $10.16 billion, volume down nearly 60% from the 30-day average, market trading sentiment is sluggish, with mostly bulls and bears taking a wait-and-see approach • Market cap about $230.3 billion, all-time high $4948, currently retraced over 62% from the high, still in the medium- to long-term bear market range • Up 2.98% over the past 7 days, rebound 21% over the past 30 days, overall decline over the past year over 50%, indicating a technical recovery after oversold conditions II. Core Drivers of Short-Term Gains (Reasons for Today's Rebound) 1. Marginal easing of geopolitical risks: Tensions in the Strait of Hormuz in the Middle East have eased, diplomatic talks between Iran and Oman have signaled easing, global risk appetite has slightly restored, and BTC and ETH have led all cryptocurrencies to rise slightly. As long as the Middle East conflict does not escalate, risk assets will remain weak and oscillating during recovery. 2. Institutional funds provide structural support: Large asset management firms recently staked ETH worth $184 million; Bitmine continues to hoard coins, with total holdings approaching 5% of circulating supply; US spot ETH staking ETFs returned to net capital inflows in July, indicating that institutional long-term allocation needs have not completely disappeared. 3. On-chain circulating supply continues to tighten: 33.56% of circulating ETH across the network is staked and locked and cannot be traded; The number of staking queues far exceeds exits, reducing supply from the bottom to slow selling pressure,Berachain盘面在PoL Next升级启动后出现放量波动，$BERA价格短线快速拉升，市场资金正围绕底层经济模型变更进行重新定价。
BGT机制退役并转向WBERA结算，这一变动直接改变了链上激励的分配逻辑，降低了流动性参与的准入门槛。
原有的老矿工群体面临激励模式的结构性调整，这种利益分配的重构引发了市场对长期锁仓意愿的博弈。
若后续新机制能有效驱动TVL显著增长，流动性的释放将为价格提供支撑，反之若矿工群体因激励变动流出，则可能加剧抛压风险。
市场目前的买入情绪依赖于对WBERA结算带来的流动性溢价预期，若后续盘面无法站稳当前区间，则说明市场对新机制的共识尚未达成。
观察未来几天链上TVL的变化趋势，这是验证本次经济模型升级能否转化为实际资产沉淀的关键指标。
#参议院CLARITY法案下周或表决：通过利好还是夭折？ #三星Galaxy钱包将原生支持稳定币 #SPCX因星舰发射与解禁引发多空分歧Starship's 13th Test Flight Success: What SPCX Truly Wants to Deliver Is More Than Just One Launch'
On July 24, SpaceX completed Starship's 13th comprehensive flight test. According to the AP live report, the rocket launched from Texas, releasing 20 Starlink V3 satellites for the first time; The spacecraft then completed a soft splash in the Indian Ocean. The incident occurred on July 24, with related reports released between July 24 and 25.
The value of this mission lies in Starship's first time advancing the "next-generation Starlink carrier" from simulated payloads to real satellite testing. Twenty V3 satellites were released at an altitude of about 200 kilometers and completed laser, radio communication, and data return within about 20 minutes before reentry. But it's important to clarify: this is a suborbital test, the satellite was suborbitally burned afterward, and it did not directly become new operational capacity; The booster also descended too quickly on the return trip due to insufficient restart of the engine. A successful test flight reduced some engineering uncertainties, but that does not mean the commercialization pace has been set.
The core cash flow behind SPCX still mainly comes from Starlink. SpaceX disclosed to the SEC that as of March 31, it had about 9,600 in-orbit broadband and mobile satellites and 10.3 million Starlink subscribers; In the first quarter, the connectivity business generated $3.257 billion in revenue and operating profit of $1.188 billion. In comparison, the aerospace business had $619 million in revenue and $662 million in operating losses during the same period, and paid Starship $930 million in R&D expenses. In other words, Starship is more like high-investment infrastructure in the short term, and its long-term value depends on whether it can significantly reduce launch costs, expand V3 deployment speed, and ultimately translate into subscriptions and enterprise revenue.
The next more verifiable milestone is the Q2 results on August 4. The market will focus on Starlink user growth, connectivity business profit margins, Starship R&D, and capital expenditure, not just the launch screen. Negative risks include repeated testing schedules, regulatory and spectrum constraints, massive investments, and the sensitivity of high valuations to the speed of growth realization.

Is it supported for trust-minimized BTC transfers across L2s?While reviewing the Meme sector that evening, I suddenly thought of a question: In the next bull market, can DOGE replicate the frenzied rally of 2021?
I feel the answer may not be as simple as before.
Dogecoin's biggest feature in 2021 is its highly concentrated narrative.
At that time, there were few options in the entire Meme market, and a large amount of retail funds were concentrated in DOGE. A single Musk's move often becomes a trigger for short-term capital flow, sometimes causing significant intraday fluctuations.
At that stage, DOGE carried very strong emotional value.
But now the market environment has changed.
In the past year, even when Musk occasionally mentioned DOGE, the market reaction was less exaggerated than before; more often, it was just a short-term surge, then quickly returned to its original trend.
I don't think this is simply a "decline in Musk's influence," but more like the market maturing and funds starting to disperse.
The competition in the meme track is far fiercer now than in 2021.
In the past, when people mentioned Meme, their first thought was probably DOGE; But now, a large number of new projects emerge on-chain every day, and the Solana ecosystem keeps giving birth to new meme assets, with brands like PEPE and BONK attracting significant attention.
The liquidity pool remains the same, but with more choices, DOGE naturally finds it hard to dominate as a single player as before.
Another once very captivating story is "DOGE on Mars."
At the time, many believed that with the development of Musk and SpaceX, Dogecoin could become some kind of space payment method in the future, and this imaginative space brought strong market sentiment to DOGE.
But after a few years, people have gradually realized that there is still a long way between grand narratives and actual implementation.
Stories can drive emotions, but ultimately, it depends on whether there are new use cases and sustained funding.
In my own view, DOGE is not without opportunities.
It still maintains extremely high brand recognition, a massive community base, and a very strong historical position among meme coins.
But to replicate the 2021 gains, new catalysts may be needed, rather than just a single shout or an old story.
In the next bull market, the meme rally is very likely to persist, but funds will become more selective. In the past, "fame means price increases," but in the future, more emphasis may be placed on community activity, capital flows, and the duration of market heat.
So for DOGE, I wouldn't simply judge it has no chance, nor do I expect it to easily repeat the past.
The advantage of established memes is strong consensus, but their disadvantage is that their growth potential has already been fully recognized by the market. What truly determines the trend going forward is whether there are new stories, new capital, and new application expectations. $OKB $DOGE $KAITO rose over 26% in 24 hours—Can InfoFi hype turn into token demand?
According to OKX spot market data, as of 22:00 Beijing time on July 26, 2026, KAITO/USDT was trading at about 1.2093 USDT, up about 26.5% in 24 hours, with a high of 1.2318 USDT and a low of 0.9194 USDT, and a trading volume of about 4.477 million USDT. Currently, no public announcement alone explains this round of rally; price performance is more appropriate to first see as funds retrading AI and attention economy narratives.
Kaito is not just an "AI search tool."
Kaito Pro is responsible for organizing encrypted information such as social media, research, governance forums, news, and podcasts, and quantifies projects and narratives in Mindshare; Kaito Studio uses this data for brand-creator matching, campaign execution, and performance attribution; Capital Launchpad attempts to allocate project quotas based on social reputation, on-chain behavior, and historical participation; Mindshare Arena turns brand, trend, and personality attention into a predictable market.
The common logic of this product is to turn previously vague attention into data that can be measured, distributed, and traded.
The demand is real, the project team needs to decide who to allocate the budget to, the traders need to identify narrative rotations, and creators want their influence to be determined more than just the number of followers. Kaito officially disclosed that Kaito Pro has already achieved profitability and serves over 500 investment, marketing, and growth teams; These data can somewhat indicate the direction of commercialization.
Once attention is tied to rewards, participants study scoring rules, and content quantity, homogeneous expression, and account manipulation can all increase. Kaito's early Yaps "post to earn" program ended in January 2026, with the official reason cited as X revoking reward API access. InfoFi can redesign allocation rules but is still subject to changes in social platform data permissions and policies.
KAITO currently serves as an ecosystem trading medium, governance, and staking. Of the official token distribution, 56.67% is allocated to the community and ecosystem, 25% to core contributors, and 8.3% to early investors. Documenting the purpose does not mean the value has been transmitted: current official documentation does not state that Kaito Pro revenue will automatically be distributed to KAITO holders, nor does it disclose a fixed buyback or burn mechanism directly linked to income.
Whether this wave of price can be caught by InfoFi business depends on whether Kaito Pro's paying customers and revenue can grow, whether Studio can generate a budget for recurring activities, whether Launchpad and Mindshare Arena continue to generate usage, and whether staking, governance, and platform transactions can bring stable demand for KAITO.
Kaito is trying to price attention. KAITO also aims to prove that this attention can accumulate into sustained revenue and token demand, not just higher scores on the leaderboard.#多数党领袖称CLARITY休会前难通过
I'm Brother Thorn, and the CLARITY Act is basically dead.
Senate Majority Leader Thune personally stated that the bill is unlikely to pass before the August recess. Bloomberg directly pointed out the core issue: the approximately $1.4 billion in earnings Trump gained from crypto business became the biggest obstacle to the bill's passage. At the beginning of the year, the approval rate surged to 82%, and the market is now only about one-third. Democrats and consumer rights groups criticized the clause for insufficient strength, stating that enforcement power is exercised solely by the Department of Justice, excluding oversight by state attorneys general; Whether moral restrictions cover indirect shareholding and do not restrict officials' children; The terms will automatically expire on January 20, 2029. All three points are major flaws, making it difficult to reach consensus in the short term.
Compromise efforts are ongoing, with Gallego and Tillis exploring solutions, and the banking sector opposing stablecoin yield clauses. But the time window was gone. The August 7 recess was a strict deadline, and the process itself took several days. The actual deadline was July 30. Missing the recess will put the government at risk of shutdown in September, and then entering election season, the difficulty of passing will rise significantly.
The impact on BTC in the short term has already been reflected in the price of disappointing expectations. BTC has fallen from above 66,000 to near 64,000, and the bill's stalling means regulatory uncertainty continues, slowing institutional allocation. However, Zach Pandl, head of research at Grayscale, still holds true: the bottom of the BTC bear market may have already formed, and prices will be driven by real interest rates and economic growth. ETFs have seen net inflows for several consecutive days, with institutions continuously buying in the 64,000 to 65,000 range.
The failure of the CLARITY Act has limited impact on BTC's long-term narrative; BTC does not live on a single bill from the U.S. Congress. The value of non-sovereign assets comes from computing power and consensus, not from Washington's approval.

24h $30,600 $128,300 19.3%
Duokong interpretation
Across cycles, short blowouts crushed the bulls (24-hour short positions accounted for 80.7%), indicating a sustained short-squeeze rally. Within 1 hour, short liquidations account for 100%, with extreme short squeezes at the open; The 12-hour short position ratio reached 93.1%, the most intense short squeeze of the day; Although the 24-hour bulls have fought back, bears still dominate the market. Ultimate winner: Bulls—Bears face consecutive large-scale liquidations, with prices continuing to rise strongly.
Time distribution
· 1 hour accounts for 47.1% of 24 hours
· 4 hours accounts for 51.6% of 24 hours
· 12 hours accounts for 80.6% of 24 hours
Extreme liquidations are concentrated in the 12-hour cycle (over 80%), indicating that the main wave of short squeezing and rising momentum has exploded within 12 hours; The total 24-hour volume is basically the same as the 12-hour period, with limited growth in the subsequent 12 hours. Currently, the market is at the end of the high level of the short squeeze phase, with bears suffering heavy losses, but caution is needed regarding profit-taking pressure.
A one-sentence explanation
$SNDK 24-hour short liquidations totaled $128,300, accounting for 80.7% of total volume; 12-hour concentrated bursts forced the main bullish wave, with bulls winning decisively.
🔥 Market Barometer | July 24th
Today's three hot topics point to the same theme: the cost of AI, regulatory stalls, and the breathing on the edge of the geopolitical cliff.
📊 Google and Tesla: The "bill" for the AI feast has arrived
Two financial reports have revealed the harsh truth behind AI narratives.
Google beats expectations but comes at a heavy cost: total revenue of $119.8 billion, up 24% year-on-year; Google Cloud revenue was $24.77 billion, an 82% year-on-year increase. However, capital expenditures reached $44.9 billion, and free cash flow turned negative for the first time to -$5.9 billion. After hours, it once fell nearly 5%.
Tesla's revenue growth without profit growth: revenue of $28.24 billion, up 26% year-on-year; However, operating profit was only $398 million, a year-on-year plunge of 57%, with an operating margin of just 1.4%. Free cash flow turned negative for the first time in over two years. It fell more than 4% in after-hours trading.
Signal: Google's AI has formed a closed revenue loop in its cloud business; Meanwhile, Tesla's Robotaxi and Optimus remain at the "story" stage. The market is punishing AI narratives that are concept-heavy but lack cash flow.
📜 CLARITY Act Stalled: A $1.4 Billion Ethical Dilemma
Regulatory hopes for the crypto industry are fading. Although Senate Republicans released updated text and added a morality clause, seven Democratic senators collectively vetoed it. Senate Majority Leader Toon Toon made it clear that the bill is unlikely to pass before the August 7 recess.
Fundamental obstacle: The roughly $1.4 billion gains Trump gained from crypto business became the biggest obstacle. The Democrats are demanding stricter ethical clauses to prevent the president from continuing to profit from the crypto industry under government oversight.
Polymarket forecasts show that the probability of passing within the year has plummeted from over 80% to 37%. Missing the August window and dragging into the autumn elections will greatly reduce the chances of passing in 2026.
🚢 U.S. military pauses airstrikes: a breather on the edge of a geopolitical cliff
On July 25 local time, Trump ordered the U.S. military not to launch new airstrikes on Iran that day, ending a 13-day continuous daily strike campaign.
A few hours before the airstrike pause, the Omani delegation had already arrived in Tehran to begin negotiations to resume navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, reportedly making progress. Brent crude had previously surpassed $100 per barrel, and if negotiations break through, oil prices are expected to retreat.
Signal: This is a tactical pause—to leave room for diplomacy, but the U.S. military is still preparing contingency plans for resuming strikes.
💎 Summary
Three events outline the core contradictions in the current market: The bill for AI is approaching—Google and Tesla are telling the market that, for the first time ever, negative cash flow is heating up faster than expected; The regulatory window is closing—the $1.4 billion ethical dilemma makes it hard for the CLARITY Act to pass within the year; How long the pause in the geography lasts depends on the success or failure of Oman's mediation. #财报观察员: Who can truly understand the real answer sheet from Google and Tesla this time?
#多数党领袖称CLARITY休会前难通过
#美军暂停对伊空袭, negotiations on the opening of the strait made progress Traditional futures moving 24/7 was originally seen as an irreversible trend. However, the CFTC recently extended the comment deadline by 30 days, postponing it to August 26. This is not simply "slowing down approvals," but rather asking: After the market never closes, who guarantees the risk system will never go offline? On July 23, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission announced an extension of the public comment period for two issues: first, the extension of standard futures contracts to 24/7 trading; Second, design perpetual contracts for energy commodities that can be delivered physically or stored. The regulator stated that this extension was due to requests from commentators and added several new issues. The discussion, which was originally close to ending, was postponed to August 26. ## Trading can go on endlessly, but clearing can't rely solely on "scheduling one extra shift." On the surface, 24/7 is just extending trading hours from weekdays to weekends. In fact, it will simultaneously change four systems: - Exchanges need to continuously match and monitor abnormal orders; - The clearing institution needs to calculate margin and default risk in real time; - Brokers need to continue handling client funds during bank breaks; - Market makers need to continue providing bilateral quotes amid weekend news shocks. The crypto market has proven that weekends are not always risk-free. Conversely, when bank payments, fiat deposits, and some institutional risk control teams are in a low-response state, market depth may decrease, and a single sell order can cause a greater price shock. If this mechanism were replicated to physically deliverable assets like crude oil, the problem would become even more complicated. Perpetual contracts do notA few bullish candles can make the market shout "Altseason is here"... But the money really didn't come.
Have you noticed that things around you have suddenly become lively lately, but the knockoffs you have haven't touched much?
I saw many people getting excited, and Twitter was full of screenshots of "Niu Hui Su Gui" (Ox Return Fast Return). But after carefully scanning the on-chain data, he actually felt even calmer. This isn't a widespread, sweeping rally; it's more like a carefully orchestrated "liquidity flash mob"—funds only dare to cluster around a few strong coins, and the vast majority of tokens struggle even to keep up.
People think what they see is a "full-scale explosion," but in reality, trading is "structural differentiation under the stock game game." The market is quietly repricing: what's worth chasing, and what should be abandoned.
Where is the money going now?
- The most stable is still the anchor $BTC, which is the starting point for all liquidity.
- Then there are $JELLYJELLY, $OPG, $SLX varieties with narrative or bookmaker marks.
- And $LAB, $BSB, $ALLO, $CHIP—all seem to be the 'survivors' who have been screened.
And those that have been forgotten, such as $BEAT, $EDGE, $TRUMP, $VIRTUAL, $IP...... It's not that they're bad, but the market doesn't want to pay attention to them for now. This is the harshness of "event repricing": not all tokens will be evenly priced; only those chosen for "repricing" in the current logic get a share of the pie.
So when is the real Altseason?
- Liquidity has spread from several leading stocks to multiple sectors, not just BTC and Solana rising.
- More altcoins can independently follow their own trends, rather than just following BTC in the tail.
- Trading volume continues to expand, not just a single day's pulse.
- Buying can be sustained, rather than a sudden surge and then exit.
It now seems none of these conditions have been met. So don't rush to bet all your positions. Chasing bullish candles is the easiest way to get stuck halfway up the mountain before liquidity spreads.
My judgment is: the market is still in the "tentative pricing" phase; a true comprehensive rally needs to wait for BTC to hold firm first, then wait for new narratives to pull funds from "safe haven" back to "risky."
Think carefully before taking action; don't let emotions lead you astray.

$DOGE As a long-established MEME, its token structure is relatively transparent, with no unlocking pressure, which is an advantage
But the disadvantages are equally obvious:
The trend heavily depends on BTC linkage, with intense technical selling pressure above and continuous issuance of diluted value in the perpetual market

The story of storage is completely told.
A new round of collapse in South Korea may be imminent.
Yesterday, on July 25, Samsung and SK Hynix signed a chip partnership agreement worth 1,375 trillion Korean won with American tech giants.
About $940 billion, which is 6.3 trillion RMB.
Over the weekend, many financial bloggers and investors said this news is a major positive.
But in fact, this is a replay of the Plaza Accord in Japan, and South Korea is bound to repeat Japan's mistakes from the 1990s.
First, originally Samsung and SK Hynix's monthly HBM capacity by the end of 2027 was 130,000 units.
But with this investment agreement and cooperation framework plan, by the end of 2027 their monthly HBM capacity will increase to 190,000 units.
The original supply shortage of HBM was expected to last until the end of 2028, but now it will be directly advanced to the end of 2027, shortening the entire industry's boom cycle by a year.
International capital of trillions will not wait until supply and demand balance at the end of 2027 to act; they usually move one to one and a half years earlier.
Second, this agreement is only a supply intention, not a rigid purchase contract.
However, Samsung and SK Hynix must now start expanding factories, investing in equipment, and begin large-scale capacity expansion.
If the commercialization and profit speed of these big companies led by Google, Microsoft, and Amazon falls behind their investment speed in AI,
they will reduce this expenditure, and the HBM capacity that Samsung and Hynix build in the future will quickly become excess capacity.
Prices will plummet, massive investments will be unrecoverable, and South Korea will face huge corporate losses, export collapse, currency depreciation, and asset price crashes.
A perfect replication of Japan's 1990s script.
So, South Korea seems to have gained the AI order dividend.
But extending the timeline, this cooperation agreement directly locks South Korea's high-end industry future development path.
The entire economic lifeline of South Korea is now completely in the hands of the Americans. Reading the news about Samsung and SK Hynix, I saw a set of numbers that made me a bit restless.
Samsung and SK Group just signed a $950 billion long-term chip supply agreement with US tech giants, valid until 2030. NVIDIA, Broadcom, and Google have all locked in South Korean memory production capacity.
My impression of memory chips was still stuck in the cyclical stock phase. But 65% of SK Hynix's revenue now comes from HBM high-bandwidth memory, a single category, and last month it just raised $26.5 billion in an IPO on Nasdaq, setting a record in the semiconductor industry.
The signal behind this is very direct: US tech giants are locking in capacity in advance according to the AI computing power growth curve for the next 5 to 10 years; short-term fluctuations do not affect decisions at this level.
The structural change in the HBM line is just beginning. Micron, SK Hynix ADR, Samsung—the memory sector deserves to be revalued.
The above does not constitute investment advice; please make judgments based on your own research. A stablecoin claiming to be backed by Bitcoin assets saw its price plummet 99% after the attacker stole about $1 million in collateral. This incident once again proves that the most dangerous moments for stablecoins are often not "no assets," but the system mistaking the wrong price for the truth. On July 22, Balance Coin (BLC) was attacked by oracles. Public reports show that the attacker entered abnormal Bitcoin prices into the lending system, triggering erroneous liquidations and withdrawing about $910,000 to $1 million in assets from the relevant vaults. BLC then fell from nearly $1 to nearly zero. ## "Collateral" does not mean "collateral can be redeemed at any time" Whether a stablecoin can hold its peg depends on at least three layers of structure: The first layer is assets. Is there really enough collateral in the vault? The second layer is pricing. What price does the protocol use to determine collateralization ratio, minting quota, and liquidation threshold? The third layer is liquidity. Even if the book assets are sufficient, during market panic, is anyone willing to accept at prices close to $1? The problem with balance mainly lies in the second layer. The oracle acts like the "eyes" of on-chain protocols; the contract itself does not determine Bitcoin's actual value and only mechanically executes external prices. If input prices are manipulated, subsequent lending, liquidation, and asset transfers will become correct code execution errors. This is why an attack of about $1 million can cause a 99% price drop. According to public data, before the incident, BLC had about 3.5 million tokens in circulation and a nominal market value of about 3I think Jensen Huang's support for opening up weights this time actually has very practical business logic behind it.
The more active the open-source ecosystem is, the more companies involved in AI development and deployment, and the greater the demand for computing power. For NVIDIA, more models being used mean more training and inference scenarios, naturally driving demand for GPUs and data centers.
So this is not just an expression of industry opinions, but also closely tied to NVIDIA's own interests.
If the AI ecosystem becomes excessively closed in the future, with only a few companies controlling the model entry points, the overall market expansion speed may be limited. Conversely, if the open approach encourages more enterprises and developers to participate, it could actually expand the entire AI infrastructure market.
Of course, the market ultimately looks at performance deliveries, not just on philosophy. Whether open source can truly translate into greater computing power needs still requires further data verification.

$GOOGL In less than 24 hours, before the verdict was even finished, the appeal was submitted. This is faster than the $BTC pump. Kalshi was really anxious this time. A New York federal judge had just rejected their application to block the enforcement of the state's gambling law, and he went straight to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals. The target is a sports event contract; state regulators say it's gambling, but Kalshi says it's not. But the judge was not convinced. I stared at the market for a long time; predicting this market track is really too difficult. Whether it's Polymarket or Kalshi, doing prediction markets in the US is like walking a tightrope: the federal government says it's okay, but the states say no. The two sides are fighting, with the project side caught in the middle. Don't panic, this isn't a death sentence. If the Court of Appeal changes its ruling, Kalshi will still have a breather. Sports event contracts are their main source of income, and having this cut off is as painful as losing $ETH to the mainnet. There wasn't much major volatility in the market today, $BTC is still fluctuating. At this level, no one dares to bet on the direction with large positions. To be honest, this kind of regulatory negative impact has limited short-term impact on prices, but it gradually erodes market makers' confidence. Think about it, which institution would be willing to invest heavily in liquidity in a market that could be labeled as gambling at any moment? Sports prediction has been a hot topic lately. The European Championship, Champions League final, and NBA Finals are happening one after another, and the trading volume in the on-chain prediction market has been soaring. But regulators have directly cut the root cause. I think there's no shortcut to compliance.

Recently, its performance has been quite impressive, showing a continuous upward trend. From the end of June until now, it has tripled in less than a month, and everything looks thriving. But is this really the case? Is the market really that optimistic about it? To answer these two questions, we need to analyze some data to find the answers. —————————————————— Let's look at its contract data. A closer look at the chart reveals four key time nodes. The first date is July 8. At that time, $KAITO's price suddenly surged, and its contract open interest surged, but the long-short ratio of contracts plummeted. What does this mean? This indicates that this rally has led to a massive amount of short positions. This is the first large-scale short selling in $KAITO in nearly a month. This time, the result was a pullback for $KAITO. The second milestone is July 14. At that time, the price of $KAITO surged again, attracting many more short sellers. The data performance was exactly the same as the first time, and the result was the same. The third date is July 17. At this point, $KAITO started to surge again, and the math performance was the same as the first time. The result was the same, $KAITO pulled back again. The fourth date is July 19. On that day, $KAITO started to rally upward, then went on to a consolidationNext week, the most active spot in U.S. stocks is most likely to be tech stocks.
Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, and Apple will successively release their earnings reports, and the Federal Reserve meeting will also be held at the same time. Tesla and Google have already stepped on a market pitfall: business growth hasn't stopped, AI investment and capital expenditure are too high, cash flow is starting to strain, and stock prices are still being hit.
So for this round of financial reports, it's no longer enough to judge whether revenue exceeds expectations.
The market cares more about three things:
First, how much has AI capital expenditure increased?
Second, whether cloud business and advertising revenue can cover these investments;
Third, whether the company still has enough cash to continue repurchasing shares.
Reuters estimates show that by 2027, the incremental capital expenditures of Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Meta, and Oracle could reach about $534 billion, with an increase of about $340 billion in operating cash flow over the same period. Simply put, for every additional $1 in cash generated, about $1.57 may be required.
This is the most sensitive aspect of current AI trading.
The technical demand remains, orders haven't disappeared, but the capital market is no longer willing to advance money indefinitely. Microsoft and Amazon need to prove that their cloud business can sell computing power; Meta needs to prove that AI has indeed improved ad conversions; Apple needs to come up with a clearer logic for switching devices.
Even if tech stocks deliver "good earnings" next week, they may continue to fall. Because the current standard has become: how good it is, and whether it deserves current valuations.
Don't just bet on earnings reports in trading. What's even more worth watching is how stock prices react to positive and negative news after the earnings report is released.
If good news comes out but doesn't rise, it often means the upper side is too strong; If the data is average but can't fall, it actually suggests that pessimistic expectations may have been released early.

Scale of liquidations
· 1 hour: $52,400
· 4 hours: $80,000
· 12 hours: $637,800
· 24 hours: $2,317,700
Mostly and bearish distribution
Cycle: Bull liquidation, short liquidation, long position
1h $52,000 $491.39 99.1%
4h $79,500 $491.39 99.4%
12h $298,800 $339,000 46.8%
24h $675,000 $1,642,700 29.1%
Duokong interpretation
In the first 4 hours, long positions were liquidated and crushed short positions (long positions accounted for ~99%), causing prices to continue falling; 12-hour short liquidation at $339,000 started to overtake (53.2%), triggering a short squeeze; In 24 hours, short positions at $1.6427 million further crushed the bulls (accounting for 70.9%), with a full-scale short squeeze erupting and fierce escalation. Ultimate winner: Bulls—showing a pattern of "killing long → short squeeze burst," with bears facing large-scale liquidation.
Time distribution
· 1 hour accounts for 2.26% of 24 hours
· 4 hours accounts for 3.45% of 24 hours
· 12 hours accounts for 27.53% of 24 hours
Liquidation distribution is extremely late: the first 12 hours accounted for only 27.53%, while the 24-hour total volume is 3.63 times that of the 12-hour period, indicating that short squeezes surged sharply between 12 and 24 hours (about $1.68 million in the last 12 hours, accounting for 72.5% of the day). Currently, the market is at the peak of a short squeeze, with bears severely hit, but after extreme gains, caution is needed regarding profit-taking pressure.
A one-sentence explanation
$DOGE 24-hour short liquidations totaled $1.6427 million, accounting for 70.9% of the total. The short squeeze surged in the latter half, with bulls winning decisively.

Today's three hot topics point to the same theme: the cost of AI, regulatory stalls, and the breathing on the edge of the geopolitical cliff.
📊 Google and Tesla: The "bill" for the AI feast has arrived
Two financial reports have revealed the harsh truth behind AI narratives.
Google beats expectations but comes at a heavy cost: total revenue of $119.8 billion, up 24% year-on-year; Google Cloud revenue was $24.77 billion, an 82% year-on-year increase. However, capital expenditures reached $44.9 billion, and free cash flow turned negative for the first time to -$5.9 billion. After hours, it once fell nearly 5%.
Tesla's revenue growth without profit growth: revenue of $28.24 billion, up 26% year-on-year; However, operating profit was only $398 million, a year-on-year plunge of 57%, with an operating margin of just 1.4%. Free cash flow turned negative for the first time in over two years. It fell more than 4% in after-hours trading.
Signal: Google's AI has formed a closed revenue loop in its cloud business; Meanwhile, Tesla's Robotaxi and Optimus remain at the "story" stage. The market is punishing AI narratives that are concept-heavy but lack cash flow.
📜 CLARITY Act Stalled: A $1.4 Billion Ethical Dilemma
Regulatory hopes for the crypto industry are fading. Although Senate Republicans released updated text and added a morality clause, seven Democratic senators collectively vetoed it. Senate Majority Leader Toon Toon made it clear that the bill is unlikely to pass before the August 7 recess.
Fundamental obstacle: The roughly $1.4 billion gains Trump gained from crypto business became the biggest obstacle. The Democrats are demanding stricter ethical clauses to prevent the president from continuing to profit from the crypto industry under government oversight.
Polymarket forecasts show that the probability of passing within the year has plummeted from over 80% to 37%. Missing the August window and dragging into the autumn elections will greatly reduce the chances of passing in 2026.
🚢 U.S. military pauses airstrikes: a breather on the edge of a geopolitical cliff
On July 25 local time, Trump ordered the U.S. military not to launch new airstrikes on Iran that day, ending a 13-day continuous daily strike campaign.
A few hours before the airstrike pause, the Omani delegation had already arrived in Tehran to begin negotiations to resume navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, reportedly making progress. Brent crude had previously surpassed $100 per barrel, and if negotiations break through, oil prices are expected to retreat.
Signal: This is a tactical pause—to leave room for diplomacy, but the U.S. military is still preparing contingency plans for resuming strikes.
💎 Summary
Three events outline the core contradictions in the current market: The bill for AI is approaching—Google and Tesla are telling the market that, for the first time ever, negative cash flow is heating up faster than expected; The regulatory window is closing—the $1.4 billion ethical dilemma makes it hard for the CLARITY Act to pass within the year; How long the pause in the geography lasts depends on the success or failure of Oman's mediation. #财报观察员: Who can truly understand the real answer sheet from Google and Tesla this time?

The short-lived rise of the mountain leader is the inevitable result of the combination of four structures
1. Its buy order pool is the smallest, with only floating profit funds within the crypto circle; with no external increments, it buys off-market funds directly;
(2) It is the final blow in the rotation chain: when taking over, most of the funds in the buy order pool have already been cut off by mainstream coins;
(3) Its supply is unlimited: new tokens + unlock + project team dumping prices; the faster the price rises, the faster the supply surges;
(4) This round also saw ETF cut off its supply and meme stocks seized by memes.
I believe the future opportunity is DeFi, and three months is enough. #财报观察员: Who can truly understand the real answer sheet from Google and Tesla this time? $BTC Last night on my way home from work, I glanced at the US stock market and saw the tech sector collectively pulling back. My first reaction wasn’t "AI is over," but rather that the market is entering a more realistic phase.
This round of adjustment is actually quite representative.
The seven tech giants in the US lost nearly $800 billion in market value in one day, with the Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq all weakening together. On the surface, it looks like a tech stock decline, but the deeper issue is that investors are starting to ask a question again:
With such huge AI investments, when will it truly translate into profits?
In recent years, the market has had very high expectations for AI.
Everyone believes AI will change the future, so tech giants keep investing in building data centers, purchasing chips, and expanding computing power. This logic itself is not wrong; I even think the long-term trend of AI still holds.
But the capital market has a characteristic: when everyone believes in the future, funds start to calculate the future value in advance.
What the market is focusing on now is the time lag between investment and return.
For example, Google has raised its annual capital expenditure to nearly $200 billion, which means the company is continuously building larger AI infrastructure.
But the problem arises:
After increasing investments, can future revenue growth keep pace?
If the cash flow growth from AI business can’t keep up with capital expenditure expansion, the market will naturally start to reassess valuations.
This is similar to building a super factory; a bigger factory doesn’t necessarily mean higher profits. The key is how well the products sell and how long it takes to recoup costs.
Tesla is similar.
In the long term, areas like autonomous driving and robotics still have room for imagination, but heavy short-term investments may compress profitability, so the market will undergo repricing.
I think there is an interesting differentiation emerging in the AI industry chain now.
Upstream chip and hardware suppliers have already secured large orders due to growing demand; however, platform companies that have invested huge sums in building AI infrastructure are starting to face valuation pressure.
Simply put, tool sellers see revenue first, while miners start to consider costs.
But personally, I don’t think this means the AI logic is over.
I tend to believe the market is moving from "telling future stories" to "validating business models."
Just like many emerging industries go through adjustments during development, the survivors are often not the loudest companies but those that can truly convert technology into stable cash flow.
So when facing AI now, I think the most important thing is not to blindly be bearish, nor to rush to buy the dip when seeing a pullback, but to re-examine the gap between price and value.
The riskiest times in the market are often not when no one believes in the future, but when everyone believes in the future and forgets that the future has already been priced in.
Also, I’ve recently noticed that with the development of tokenized US stocks, assets like XGOOGL, XTSLA, and XSNDK have started to break through traditional trading time limits, allowing trading during non-US stock hours on OKX.
This is also part of market changes; the future investment environment may become increasingly around-the-clock.
In the past, it was about who got the news faster; now it’s more about who understands cycles and sees where the capital truly focuses.
Of course, long-term AI opportunities and short-term valuation fluctuations need to be viewed separately. In trading, I will still focus more on risk control and won’t ignore position management just because a sector is hot. $TSLA $GOOGL 📊 $BTC Quick Overview of Liquidation

Duokong interpretation
Shorts in each cycle crushed the bulls (24-hour short positions accounted for 86.8%), indicating a sustained short-squeeze upward trend. Short positions account for 86%~96% of the 1-12 hours, with ongoing liquidations; 24-hour short liquidations totaled $5.84 million, 6.59 times the long position, resulting in devastating liquidation for the bears. Ultimate winner: Bulls—prices continue to rise strongly.

#美军暂停对伊空袭, negotiations on the opening of the strait made progress $OP this round has jumped almost 40%, from silence to explosion in one day. You may not be familiar with Toss, but Koreans can't survive without it—48 million users, even more national-level than $KLAY. This time, partnering with Optimism to launch a Korean won stablecoin POC is basically about putting fiat currency on-chain, sisters. I think this is bigger than expected. Korean regulation started loosening last year. At the end of 2025, the Financial Commission announced plans to launch an institutionalized stablecoin framework. Now Toss is directly stepping in to put it into practice—not just empty promises, but a real proof-of-concept $OP Superchain ecosystem. Lately, Base, Zora, and Mode have been draining liquidity from other L2s. Optimism itself is actually undervalued. But if I don't chase the 40% rally, I'll definitely have to go short-term. I'll buy back after a pullback. Better to earn less than to hit the peak. To be honest, The stablecoin sector has been extremely competitive lately. $USDT's market cap has surged to 120 billion, $USDC following the bank license, $PYUSD PayPal pushing it hard. If the Korean won stablecoin really lands, the Asian market will be completely torn open. Does anyone else share my view?

As of July 26, 2026, $SOL is quoted at $74.33, up 0.50% in 24 hours. The daily chart remains within a narrow range of $73.5 to $76.3, with liquidity drying up on Sunday and volatility fully following BTC.
All short-term moving averages are above SOL like ceilings: the 7-day SMA is at $76.18, and the 20-day SMA is at $76.70. The only support is the 50-day SMA ($74.00), but the 200-day SMA remains at $88.08, more than 17% above the current price. The MACD histogram has hit zero, the RSI is only 46, and buyers are hesitant. The Bollinger Bands %B is only 0.23, with prices tightly hovering at the lower band ($73.48) but unable to rebound.
Key support and resistance levels 📊
Resistance levels: $75.2 (1-hour long-bearish dividing line); $76.0 - $76.3 (4-hour moving average resonance resistance, intraday optimal short range); $77.5 - $78.5 (20-day moving average + trapped dense zone; stabilizing with increased volume is necessary to reverse weakness).
Support levels: $73.5 - $73.7 (50-day moving average, intraday bulls defending the bottom line); $70.5 - $71 (Lower Bollinger Band + previously a heavily traded area; if it fails, the box will be completely broken); $67 - $67.5 (bulls concentrate in the liquidation range; a break below this would open a deep downward move to the 60 level).
On-chain market players and capital movements 🐋
On-chain activity is extremely active but prices stagnate: Solana recorded 18 million active addresses last week, surpassing BNB Chain, TRON, Bitcoin, and Ethereum to rank first among all public chains. TVL has stabilized at around $5 billion. Over 62,000 dormant wallets became active again on the Solana DEX within a week, four times the number from the previous week.
Contract long positions are extremely crowded: 73.6% of retail investors and 75.2% of "smart funds" across the network hold long positions, with leverage exceeding 3.0. Open interest of about $669 million is highly favored long. However, real-time order flow is sending warning signals—the taker buy/sell ratio is 0.806, and sellers are flooding in with larger volume. Open interest fell 0.83% in 24 hours, and bulls did not gain confidence.
Divergence on the funding side: Circle minted $250 million USDC on Solana, the largest single mint in weeks. However, spot ETFs had a net outflow of $70.6 million in a single day on July 24.
Positive factors ✨
Stablecoin payments surged to $94 million per week: Solscan and Helius data show this represents actual business activity rather than speculative trading. Solana's low transaction costs (below $0.01) make it the preferred settlement layer for payment applications.
Strengthening potential deflationary mechanisms: SIMD-0096 proposes to redirect 100% of priority fees to validator nodes, and the underlying resource base fees under discussion could increase daily SOL burn by 10,000 to 65,000 coins. At current prices, the daily maximum supply has decreased by about $9.1 million.
ETF cumulative net inflows of $1.14 billion: Since the SEC approved the spot SOL ETF in October 2025, cumulative net inflows have reached $1.14 billion. Bitwise's BSOL product stakes 100% of its SOL holdings, aiming for an annual staking reward of over 7%.
Bearish factors ⚠️
Technically, there is a bearish structure: the price is below all short-term moving averages, the MACD zeroing is bearish, and the RSI of 46 shows buyer hesitation. CoinGecko's prediction model gives SOL only a 2.3% chance of reaching $90 by the end of July.
Macro liquidity tightens across the board: 10-year US Treasury yields hit an 18-month high, and the Iran war pushed oil prices above $100 per barrel. The expected probability of passing the Clarity Act before the August recess has decreased. SOL is one of the largest crypto assets with the highest beta value, and macro-driven position adjustments often amplify volatility.
Bullish Pressure Risk: $669 million in open interest is highly long. If the immediate support at $73.93 is breached, a chain stop loss will be triggered, and a price drop to $72-73 will be driven by forced liquidations by bulls.
Comprehensive assessment 🧐
$SOL is currently in a key phase of contesting within a narrow range of $73.5-76.3. On-chain 18 million active addresses and $94 million weekly payment volume provide medium-term fundamental support, but over 75% of long positions on the contract side are crowded, creating a sharp contradiction between real-time selling and buying pressure. $73.5–$73.7 is the short-term lifeline for bulls—holding the line could lead to another test of $76; If it effectively breaks below the threshold, the first target is $70.8; if it breaks through 70.5 with increased volume, the target is $67. On the macro level, the triple negative impact of soaring U.S. Treasury yields, rising geopolitical risks, and the delay of the Clarity Act suppressed risk appetite. Before trading volume stabilizes above $78.5, all rebounds are defined as downward repairs.
The above analysis is based on publicly available market data and does not constitute any investment advice. Please assess the risks yourself. $SOL #多数党领袖称CLARITY休会前难通过 #美军暂停对伊空袭, progress in negotiations for the opening of the strait #RWA永续月交易量4700亿美元 $321 for $XGOOGL, is this small bullish candlestick over the weekend credible?
Let's start with the market surface. Beijing time 2026/07/26 22:23 OKX data: $XGOOGL spot quoted at 321.12, opened at 319.19 in 24 hours, high 3.2178, low 316.01, trading volume about 5.514 million USDT, 24h VWAP at 321.09. Today is Sunday, and regular US stock trading is closed, but OKX's Unified Tokenized Stocks trade 24/7. Over the weekend, prices tend to have a bit of a "traditional market closing + market estimate" flavor, so you can't just treat them as Nasdaq intraday quotes.
The first contradiction: it hasn't risen sharply, but liquidity actually ranks at the front. Among stock-traded spot assets meeting a trading volume of one million USDT, $XGOOGL 24h +0.60%, slightly stronger than $XSPY's +0.57%, and more stable than the $XSPCX I just wrote. The $XSOXL that really surged was +4.16%, but the turnover was only about 570,000 USDT, making the slippage and order risk more obvious when chasing. So this round, I won't pick the most exciting ones; I'll pick a plate that seems more like someone is seriously trading.
The second contradiction: the price is close to VWAP, but the order book does not clearly follow the rise. The 1H RSI14 is only 50.6, not overheating; MA7 is at 321.38, MA20 is at 320.71, with prices sandwiched near the short-term moving average, indicating that the gap between bulls and bears has not yet widened. In the past 2 hours, it has shifted from 321.56 to 321.12, nearly stabilizing over 6 hours, while the 24-hour range has moved from 316.01 to 321.78. Simply put, there is support from below, and people are pushing the sales upward—it's not a one-sided rush.
The third contradiction: buying interest is solid, but recent transactions are biased toward selling. The buy one is 321.03, the sell is 321.12, with a price difference of about 0.028%. The 0.5% deep buy side is about 99,000 USDT, the sell side is about 97,700 USDT, and both sides are just above 100,000 USDT for 1% depth. The order book is fairly balanced. However, among the last 100 transactions, active buying accounted for only about 43.9%, indicating that short-term buying is not crushing but rather a rally where buyers are cashing in.
The key points are clear: look at 321.8 above; if it doesn't pass, it's a small box on the weekend; Only when the volume surpasses 324.5 will it be considered to reopen the 3-day high. First, look at 320.7, then 319.2. The real invalidation level is near 316.0. If it falls below and still can't recover 320, this small bullish candlestick is most likely just weekend pricing noise.
Short-term outlook: Do not chase the narrow rally above 321; wait for support near 320.7, or wait for volume confirmation at 321.8.
Swing view: As long as 319.2 is not broken, it will likely be a probing upper boundary with a convoluted trend; Above 324.5, then look at 328-330.
Medium- to long-term view: treat it as a tool for US stock market exposure, and don't amplify the small 24/7 weekend fluctuations into trends. To really increase weighting, wait until the traditional US stock market opens and the price gap narrows, then see if OKX's turnover can maintain the million-level level.
#XGOOGL #OKX #代币化美股 #UnifiedTokenizedStocks #美股观察SHIB surged nearly 40% in a single day, with many searching for a catalyst for the rally, and even long-standing tokens like LPT, which have been trading sideways, have also surged in the same wave. From another perspective, this is more like market makers taking advantage of the weekend to test sentiment, testing on-site capital activity and willingness to follow the trend, and this round of movement happens to coincide with Bitcoin's consolidation phase.
Overall market liquidity declined over the weekend, and a small amount of capital could trigger a significant rally. The main players' usual approach is to prioritize igniting the most recognizable stocks, create profitable effects, and observe how well the market follows the trend. This kind of weekend rally is not only a way for funds to gauge market sentiment but also to attract market attention through low liquidity.
Key note: If only a few old coins keep surging in succession without sustained volume growth, it will ultimately be just a game among existing funds. Beware of short-term scams fueled by low liquidity; do not blindly chase highs.

When a project pays for it, lists tokens, and is then told, "The person communicating with you is not one of us, and the project is logged into Gate"—is this Gate's response?The PoL Next upgrade switched settlement tokens to WBERA, and the restructuring of retired BGT disrupted the original equity lock-up balance. The current core conflict lies in the struggle between the selling pressure triggered by reward liquidity release and the TVL growth efficiency of new pools.
During the session, $BERA experienced a 25% short-term sharp rebound, directly confirming that market funds had instantly revalued the liquidity premium after simplifying the dual-currency model, but also concentrated the demand for early profit-taking from high-priced chasing gains.
In terms of driver ranking, the instant cash-out attribute of settlement inflation takes precedence over retail buying caused by lowered operational thresholds, while the liquidation selling pressure from existing BGT interests from veteran miners forms a mid-level resistance. After switching to direct distribution of network-wide rewards via WBERA, inflation expectations shifted from delayed realization to immediate liquidity shocks, making capital extremely sensitive to the retention ability of ecosystem pool TVL.
The upside scenario needs to meet the TVL of the new liquidity pool, which can achieve exponential expansion after the upgrade. When retail investors can fully cover the direct inflationary selling pressure from WBAERA, prices have momentum to break above previous highs. The failure signal of this scenario is that after the new pool opens, net capital inflows stagnate or TVL growth falls short of estimates.
The downward scenario is driven by the combination of old miners' chip adjustments and profit-taking after positive news materializes. If BGT equity adjustments cause existing participants to exit in large numbers, and new pools fail to absorb this rebalancing pressure, the market will face a deep correction with a surge and pullback. The failure signal of this scenario is that large spot orders appear at key support levels to absorb and sell the market.
The failure condition for overall judgment is that during the mechanism transition period, the intensity of competition among ecosystem participants exceeds expectations. If the TVL scale of the new pool continues to shrink for several trading days, the original economic model revaluation logic will lose its data support.
The core variable to watch over the next 7 days is the net TVL growth curve of the new liquidity pool after the PoL Next upgrade and the real-time selling pressure absorption rate of WBERA.
#美军暂停对伊空袭, progress made in the Strait navigation negotiations #财报观察员: Who can truly understand the real answer from Google and Tesla this time?Others look at candlesticks while I look at on-chain data, and I find something unusual
An anomaly is not a sudden surge or drop
Today, everything seems normal
It's so normal it makes you want to order a bit more
The end of the day one-sentence edition
I try to keep it short
And be as ruthless as possible
BTC 64513
In 24 hours, it rose by about 0.7%.
ETH around 1886
A bit brighter
SOL around 75
Following the rise but not going crazy
And what happened?
Oil prices eased first due to easing expectations in the US and Iran
Traditional markets are closed on Sundays
Crypto himself gave a small green stick
Rates are discounted to zero
Mood 5: Buy and sell
Not a climax
It's a chance to catch your breath
The anomaly lies in
The news page could write a ten-thousand-word drama
The price is only willing to give you a narrow courtesy
Days like this
The best way to turn off the app is to disable it
So my judgment is
Not chasing this little green one
Don't be intimidated by the list of intimidations to chop down the floor
Position maintained
Leverage remains low
Fasten your phone
Leave execution to Monday's liquidity
By the way, I also took a look at recent developments, which are in several directions:
#多数党领袖称CLARITY休会前难通过
The regulatory gap has been repeated multiple times; reading it again at the end of the day won't change the weekend shrinkage structure and only stirs up noise. Just treat the bill's progress as a Monday variable, without adding drama after the market closes. My choice is to mark the date, not the mood, and to make fewer event orders during the gap period.
#韩国存储双雄获AI双巨头大单
AI hardware orders can boost peripheral risk appetite, but it's difficult to directly rewrite the closing logic of the Bitcoin market on Sunday night; cross-market transmission requires opening validation. The day-end phase most easily turns the mapping into a joke about midnight reviewsMy boyfriend asked me why I didn't reply to messages, I'm looking at the contract and don't have time to pay attention to him
He thought I was giving him the silent treatment
Actually, I'm preparing for next week's mines
News will be delayed
The position pulled back significantly
The calendar next week is full
Changxin's IPO may reignite AI trading sentiment
Financial reports from the central bank's super-weekly tech giant
Whether the US-Iran negotiations will be uncertain or uncertain
CLARITY was sad before the recess
The regulatory gap is highly likely to continue
Then guess what
Tonight, Da Bing will use 64513 for now
and a slight increase of 0.7%.
I handed in my exam paper for the weekend
Oil prices fell due to easing expectations
Traditional markets haven't opened yet
The real cross-validation happened on Monday
So the weekend outlook
I wrote very badly
It works very well
3. Rules
First, deleverage
Zero rate discounts are not seatbelts
It's that no one is willing to pay the direction cost yet
The second batch
Don't let next week's catalyst be the case
Send in the same transaction at once
Third, don't guess the title
Progress in negotiations and a tough stance
They take turns flooding the screen
Even if you guess the title, you might not earn a fluctuation
ETH1885
Near SOL75
The structure is a bit cleaner than the previous two days
But ETF outflows are still in the books
The agency didn't give you a tailwind
AI narrative fever
This does not mean the main crypto upward wave is confirmed
He mistook "no time to talk to him" as a temper
I misheard 'no time to deal with him' as risk control
The most common mistake on weekends
It is turning prospects into prophecies
Then use prophecy to open the large multiple
So my judgment is
The Later Zhou should be guarded, not reckless
Prioritize your watchlist
Whether oil prices and US stock futures confirm a easing
Whether financial reports and AI trading spill over into risk assets
Can the big bing be between 64,000 and 60,000?
