AI pushing GDP to $44 trillion, and whether AI stocks bought today can break even, is separated by several layers of allocation issues.
In the economic scenario model published by Anthropic, the US GDP reaching $44.4 trillion by 2030 is an extreme scenario that requires strong capability improvements and rapid adoption assumptions. This refers to the total economic volume, not AI creating an additional $44 trillion, nor is it the revenue target of any single company.
I believe AI may improve productivity, but who ultimately benefits from the efficiency gains cannot be skipped. Assuming model competition causes service prices to continuously decline, users might complete more work with less money, benefiting society greatly, but the companies providing the models may not necessarily maintain their original profit margins.
Some other benefits may flow to ordinary companies that reduce costs by using AI, or to suppliers of electricity, equipment, and so on. Exactly which listed company ends up with the profits and how much per share must be calculated separately.
There is also the issue of purchase price. If the benefits brought by technological progress have long been priced into an excessively high valuation, or if subsequent financing significantly dilutes equity, even those who understand the trend may not make money.
I truly have expectations for the potential brought by this technology, but I worry that people use macro scenarios as proof of breakeven for specific holdings. GDP forecasts discuss a possible future; investment returns still depend on: how much profit the company can retain and how much you paid for it.
#AI或推GDP至44万亿，投资能否回本？ $SNDK brothers, today the storage sector made a strong rebound. Honestly, this wave was really hard to predict.
First, the sector was hammered too hard earlier. Changxin's technological progress indeed brought competitive pressure, causing panic, but the market seems to have overvalued the entire AI storage industry chain. After the valuation was crushed, the bottom was formed.
Second, it was a short squeeze. Stocks like SanDisk have very high market attention. After several days of deep pullbacks, a large number of low-position short orders accumulated on the board. These shorts enjoyed the feast; once market sentiment slightly warmed up, they collectively took profits and closed their positions. Short covering means buying, which directly pushed up this violent recovery rally.
Finally, the characteristic of high-level growth stocks is that they fall sharply but also rebound fiercely. So today's wave is essentially a typical technical rebound, a resonance of sentiment and capital.
What’s next?
From today until the US market opens, the trend will basically be a volatile digestion. You can't expect a technical pullback to immediately turn into a V-shaped reversal back above 1400, but having just formed a bottom, it’s also impossible to fall back to the original point immediately.
The real highlight is at tonight’s US market open.
After the open, it depends on whether the market buys into the logic of "SanDisk is deeply tied to the AI boom." If capital still recognizes that "AI can’t move without storage," then this rebound can push higher; if capital doesn’t follow after the open, then this recovery is over.
After the US market opens tonight, will real buyers be willing to take over?
If it’s just the contract market rebounding by itself and the US market gets hammered again at the open, that would be a bit awkward.The Russian central bank has set a fixed timeline: starting from July 2027, residents will not be allowed to use self-custody wallets for crypto asset transactions.
The meaning is very straightforward. The path of holding private keys yourself and peer-to-peer transfers will be cut off within the country. In the future, if you want to deal with crypto assets, you can only go through licensed, real-name, and traceable custodial channels.
For $BTC, this directly targets its core selling point. One of the repeatedly told narratives about Bitcoin is that the private key is in your own hands, and no one can freeze it. A major country listing self-custody transactions as illegal is equivalent to partially negating this logic.
But the weight of this should also be seen clearly.
First, the timeline is far off. It will only be implemented in 2027, and there are still legislative and detailed rule changes in between.
Second, the scope is narrow. It regulates the trading behavior of domestic residents, not holding, nor the blockchain network itself.
Third, enforcement is difficult. Self-custody wallets have no centralized entity; the main choke points are deposit/withdrawal and matching stages.
Next, watch three things: whether this regulation remains a central bank statement or will be written into law; whether local OTC and cross-border channels will be squeezed; and whether other regulators will follow similar approaches.
For the overall market, the short-term effect is more of an emotional disturbance; the actual impact depends on the enforcement strength. #RussianCentralBankStatesBanOnSelfCustodyWalletTransactionsFromJuly2027 #机构资金转弱，BTC与ETH谁先迎来回流？
Money from the product side has been flowing out for the second consecutive week: Bitcoin saw over 200 million USD last week, Ethereum even more, 320 million USD, marking the third consecutive week. The current divergence is — which of these two will see the inflow return first.
My view is that Ethereum will lead. The reason lies in the leverage positions: Bitcoin’s long-short ratio is 1.29, with fees close to zero, leverage is clean but that also means there’s no forced liquidation fuel; Ethereum had large short positions that were gradually eliminated during the rebound, and after the shorts exit, the marginal inflow will be more obvious. Its reading of 74 is also the lowest among the mainstream, meaning it will catch up fastest.
For Bitcoin, I’m watching 82,286; if it breaks, it means this wave is just the tail of a correction, not an inflow; for Ethereum, I’m watching 2,406.
Here’s a question for you: who do you think will receive the returning funds first?
#机构资金转弱，BTC与ETH谁先迎来回流？ China's economy is beginning to warm up, but why do ordinary people still not feel much?
In the third quarter of 2026, China's GDP grew by 4.5% year-on-year, up from 4.3% in the second quarter, with a cumulative growth of 4.6% in the first three quarters. The full-year growth target of 4.5% to 5% now looks achievable.
Exports and manufacturing are key drivers of this economic rebound.
In the first three quarters, national imports and exports increased by 18.8%, with September exports up 29.6% year-on-year, and industrial added value growing by 5.5%. Shenzhen's imports and exports reached 4.65 trillion yuan in the first three quarters, a year-on-year increase of 38.8%, showing very strong foreign trade vitality.
However, the other side cannot be ignored: fixed asset investment fell by 7.2% in the first three quarters, real estate development investment dropped by 20.6%, and retail sales in September only grew by 1.1%. Factory orders are increasing, but that does not mean that household consumption and corporate investment have fully recovered.
My view is that China's economy currently shows clear structural divergence: high-end manufacturing, the AI industry chain, and exports are strong, while real estate and domestic demand remain weak. The economic growth rebound is real, but there is still some way to go before a full recovery.
Going forward, whether exports can maintain their strength and whether household income and consumer confidence can improve will determine how far the economic rebound can go. If domestic demand continues to lag, relying solely on exports and manufacturing will make it difficult to sustain high-speed growth in the long term. Subsequent policies will likely place greater emphasis on promoting consumption, stabilizing employment, and supporting the real estate sector.
What truly deserves attention is not just how much GDP grows, but whether that growth can translate into corporate profits, employment, and income for ordinary people.Supported by the weakening oil prices, gold prices rose slightly
Can falling oil prices really push gold higher? The real turning point for gold prices may still be the Federal Reserve's interest rate policy
Spot gold rose 0.4%, trading near $4182 per ounce. Brent crude fell to $107.88, WTI crude dropped to $100.25. Trump's decision to ease restrictions on Russian energy alleviated some supply concerns, and the decline in U.S. Treasury yields also supported gold
But I think it's still too early to be bullish on gold just because oil prices are falling
The core contradiction is that inflationary pressure has not truly disappeared. U.S. September CPI rose 3.7% year-on-year, and import prices increased 8.1% year-on-year, both reflecting persistent cost pressures
The short-term drop in oil prices is good, but the Middle East situation remains tense. If energy supply issues arise again, inflation could return, and expectations for Fed rate cuts will continue to be pressured
Next, focus on two signals
One is whether oil prices can continue to fall, and the other is whether PCE inflation data will continue to exceed expectations. If oil prices and U.S. Treasury yields fall simultaneously, gold is likely to continue rebounding. If inflation heats up again and rate cut expectations cool down, gold prices may come under pressure again
$XAU $CL $BZ
My judgment is that gold's medium-term support remains, but short-term fluctuations will continue. Right now, more important than chasing gains is to clearly understand which direction inflation and interest rates are heading
DYOR Scaring people out of their wits at 3 AM, then everyone partying wildly at dawn! But after looking at the data, I advise everyone not to get too excited yet.
Panic selling at dawn, BTC and ETH both rebounded by daylight, and the stock market also turned green. Many people think the drop is over and the bull market is back.
Let's look at the contract data: $ETH longs 66%, shorts 33%; $BTC longs 59%, shorts 40%; $SNDK longs directly 80%, shorts 20%😱.
Here's the key point: the price hasn't returned to the level from the day before yesterday, yet more people are bullish. The price hasn't risen back, but the sentiment is already frenzied. Everyone is thinking about bottom-fishing and waiting for a reversal, and this is the most dangerous stage.
After longs cluster together, if the price can't rise, the stampede will be very fierce. You think you're bottom-fishing, but you're actually taking the bag.
ETH's lowest at dawn was 2328, rebounded above 2426, looking strong in the short term, but the 2430-2438 resistance zone must be closely watched.
The idea is simple: short on rallies.
Short again when the rebound hits 2430-2438 and meets resistance. If it breaks through with volume and holds, immediately give up the short position; never stubbornly hold on.
When others are greedy, I am cautious. The price hasn't made a new high, but the sentiment has. This kind of divergence can easily be a bullish trap triggered by a single strong candle.I buried 0.3 $CT, now it has surged to 0.4-something, up 25%!
But the more I look, the more anxious I get. This wave doesn't feel like it's letting me make money; it feels like they're preparing to trap me.
After checking the details, it gets even colder: the main force driving this surge is a "short squeeze." There are a lot of shorts in the whale accounts, and once the price rises, their stop-loss orders are forced to cover, pushing the price even higher—a classic short squeeze pulse.
Combined with the expected airdrop hype, the trading volume has exploded more than 8 times in one day. The lifeline of a short squeeze is "there are still shorts not yet liquidated." Once short liquidation stops and no one takes over, the reversal will be fierce.
Moreover, the top ten holders control 86% of the tokens, and the contract can still be upgraded and issued more tokens at will, dumping whenever they want. I've taken half the profits off the table and set stop-losses on the rest to follow along. This kind of coin profits your courage money; don't get attached to the fight.The daily falling $ETH really breaks people's defenses. I originally thought holding a long-term position would let me sit back and relax, but my conviction shattered into a QR code. Every day I open my eyes to new lows, the candlesticks are so green it makes me anxious, and I don't even dare to log into my account, afraid the numbers will stab me again. What happened to value investing? What happened to long-term faith? Now it’s all turned into "long-term trapping." My phone rings and my heart races, probably a liquidation alert. I used to laugh at others chasing highs and selling lows, but now I don’t even dare to open the app. In this market, don’t even talk about holding on; just looking at it takes courage. Forget it, I’ll play dead for now and pretend I wasn’t washed out when it rebounds one day.
Looking at the market, I opened a position at 2490 and now it’s down to 2373, a floating loss of 14,600 U. Although the mark is +2.20%, the long position is brutally buried. On the macro side, CPI/PPI exceeded expectations, US bond yields are suppressing, BTC is stuck at 80,000, ETH lost the 2400 level, ETFs continue to flow out, and on-chain selling pressure remains high. So-called "value investing" can’t withstand 30x high leverage, and long-term faith inevitably becomes "long-term trapping" under high leverage.
Currently, ETH is testing the 2300 support; a break could probe 2100. Suggestions: play dead but reduce leverage (switch to isolated margin/low leverage <5x), set trailing stop losses, don’t let floating losses turn into real losses. If it rebounds to 2450-2500, consider reducing positions to survive and wait for BTC’s direction to become clear. Don’t pretend you weren’t washed out; risk control is the real faith. $BTC $ETH $ZEC Capital Flow Brief: Someone is buying, but that doesn't mean a full-strength turnaround (ง •_•)ง
Today's market looks more like a "localized resistance" rather than a "full-scale counterattack."
$BTC: 24-hour spot net inflow of about $12.26 million, but contracts show a net outflow of about $165 million; however, 12-hour spot net outflow is about $90.18 million, and 30-day net outflow is about $886 million. There is short-term support, but divergence appears as soon as the window changes, so sustainability still needs monitoring (｡•́︿•̀｡)
$ETH: 24-hour spot net outflow of about $63.73 million, contracts net outflow about $436 million, and 30-day spot net outflow about $3.493 billion. Both spot and contracts lean towards active selling; buying pressure isn't strong enough, so don't be too optimistic about the rebound yet.
$SOL: 24-hour spot net inflow of about $6.42 million, contracts net outflow about $37.67 million. Spot shows relative buying support, but whether it can hold the price still needs observation (ง •̀_•́)ง
My conclusion: Currently, localized buying is holding up, but there is insufficient evidence for a full-strength turnaround. Strategy leans bearish, but be cautious of rebounds when shorting at low levels. Being cautious is not shameful~ (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧
#机构资金转弱，BTC与ETH谁先迎来回流？ #SpaceX上市后首份完整季度财报将揭晓 #NetflixQ3AdsAndMargins
With password-sharing monetization maturing globally, revenue expansion increasingly relies on price increases in core markets (US, UK, EU) and ARM growth. Controlled churn following recent price adjustments will serve as the ultimate test of Netflix’s value proposition. Today the entire market is rising, BTC up 1.96%, ETH up 2.09%.
But I checked the 7-day returns of 55 coins.
Only 6 are positive.
INJ +8.38%, TIA +6.98%, ARB +3.96%.
Add GMX, TRX, and BTC, barely making 6.
The remaining 49 coins still have cumulative losses over 7 days.
DOGE is a typical example.
It rose 2.97% today, looks good.
But the 7-day cumulative is -6.11%, still at 32% in the 100-day range.
32% means that in the past 100 days, 68% of the time it was higher than now.
Trading volume explains the issue better.
October 15 was $678 million, today only $156 million.
Shrunk 77% in four days.
That day the price only dropped 0.67%.
Such a large volume with no price movement means bulls and bears were exchanging hands.
Afterwards, volume kept shrinking, price kept falling.
Today’s rebound is on low volume, the lowest in four days.
A rebound without volume is not new money coming in, it’s just selling pressure temporarily paused.
Position is a slow variable, price change is a fast variable.
A rebound recovers yesterday’s drop, a reversal moves the position upward.
These two look similar on the chart but are very different.
Among 55 coins, 49 are still negative over 7 days, this is not a reversal.
A true reversal is judged by one thing.
After the rise, has the position moved up a notch?
Only if it moves up does it count.

#ReboundIsNotReversal$BTC Watch: A 13-year dormant whale awakens, 555x profit sparks dump concerns
On-chain monitoring shows a Bitcoin whale bought in 2013 at about $130, with a cost basis of only $54,000
Holding for 13 years, the asset value has now exceeded $30 million, nearly a 555-fold increase.
Today, the whale transferred assets to a new wallet, but it is not yet clear if any sales have occurred.
Over such a long cycle, spot indeed shows the compounding effect of time as money.
However, in the current macro environment, this represents a typical high-risk scenario.
The market is extremely low in volume now, with scarce incremental funds; any movement of ancient large chips can trigger panic.
If it is just a wallet security upgrade or reorganization, the market impact is limited; but if these chips are later deposited into centralized exchanges, it will directly cause a severe dump on the fragile current liquidity.
Close tracking of subsequent on-chain actions of this new address is necessary. After reviewing ANAP’s financial report, one thing is clear: blindly accumulating Bitcoin isn’t a strategy that works for every company! 📉
The 2026 financial report of ANAP, a Japanese apparel company listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, paints a rough picture:
💰 Last year: ANAP recorded a book profit of ¥1.219 billion from its Bitcoin holdings.
🔻 This year: That gain turned into a valuation loss of ¥4.375 billion, equivalent to roughly RMB 180 million.
#TeslaQ3ProfitAndMargins Grayscale and Republic launched 3 crypto funds, can retail investors just copy their moves? Hold on first #GrayscaleRepublicLaunchesThreeCryptoFunds
Official announcement on October 15: DeFi Fund (UNI, AAVE, ONDO, ENA, CRV, LDO), Decentralized AI Fund (NEAR, TAO, RENDER, FIL), Data Network Trust (DATA). Minimum subscription $2,500.
First, only open to qualified investors. Ordinary people can’t buy, don’t be misled by headlines like "Institutions entering the market."
Second, private placement shares have transfer restrictions and poor liquidity; the official statement also mentions the possibility of total loss.
Third, the real signal is the direction: institutions are starting to package by sector instead of just buying BTC and ETH. This direction is worth tracking but doesn’t mean $TAO or $UNI will rise.
The most common mistake retail investors make: chasing after good news while ignoring that they can’t even get into these funds. First check if trading volume and capital flow are keeping up before deciding whether to pay attention.
Which sector do you favor more, DeFi or AI? Take a side in the comments.
Just personal observation, not investment advice $TAO BTC long-short ratio dropped overnight from 2.78 to 0.73, indicating a rapid shift in liquidity structure.
This sudden change in the ratio means a large-scale reversal of long and short positions within a short time; the original long camp largely turned short, with the price only slightly rising to 81573. The buy and sell orders did not form a one-sided consistent tilt. Signals from large holders' positions across different exchanges diverged; some platforms' large holders leaned towards reducing positions and bearish views, while others maintained a long bias. Long and short funds are confronting each other in a key range. ETH slightly retreated to 2386 but positions increased, SOL rose to 103.27 with positions also increasing. The chips of these two assets continue to accumulate, becoming potential price magnet zones for the future.
The total network trading volume rose 38% to 116.5 billion, while position increases were only 0.41%. The increased volume mainly came from liquidation turnover, with limited new funds entering. Liquidity near key price levels is prone to instantaneous withdrawal, forming spike traps. Position changes often precede trend continuation; if subsequent positions expand in volume and large holder divergences converge, it indicates liquidity structure is reorganizing. ETF continuous outflows combined with crowded long-short positions lower the tolerance for one-sided chasing.
What are your preset order and stop-loss positions near the key price levels currently? #
$BTC $ETH $SOL Currently, $BTC's "decent defense" — $80,000, and $ETH's "shroud" — $2,500, are more interesting to analyze separately than together.
$BTC:
BTC holding $80,000 does not mean the bulls are very strong, but rather that the bears have not yet encountered the conditions they want.
The US September CPI rose 3.7% year-over-year, a full percentage point higher than expected, and PPI data also exceeded market expectations.
If this were six months ago, such data might have pushed $BTC down to the $70,000 range at least.
But this time, BTC stubbornly held at $80,000…
#NetflixQ3AdsAndMargins Two influential opinion leaders in the crypto circle almost simultaneously made the same judgment: $BTC is unlikely to come out unscathed from this technological upheaval. Sun Yuchen's statement is even sharper—Satoshi Nakamoto's early wallets will eventually be breached, and even exchanges are no longer safe zones. The real point worth pondering in this statement is not whether it is exaggerated, but that it directly places AI computing power and quantum computing curves onto Bitcoin's survival narrative. The market tends to treat such remarks as noise, but the crowd may be underestimating their signal value. Bitcoin's moat has never been its code, but the collective belief that "no one can crack it." Once AI algorithms accelerate evolution and quantum computing power becomes a real threat, this moat will shift from a technical issue to a psychological one—and psychological pricing is precisely $BTC's most vulnerable link.🔍 More crucial is the shift in narrative focus. The original judgment is straightforward: a full bull market no longer exists; not going to zero counts as a win; in the short term, it won't go to zero but will gradually become a substitute, entering a state of "chronic devaluation." The wealth-creating stories like 126000 will not repeat. This framework is worth cautioning against as an analogy to the long-term bear market in A-shares—a cycle of ten and a half years characterized not by a crash but by slow bleeding, fading enthusiasm, participants exiting, and finally quietly becoming marginalized. There is a neglected second-order effect here: if the core value of crypto assets falls back to "payment convenience and low fees," then its valuation anchor switches from "digital gold" to "payment tool." These two anchors correspond to completely different capital structures—the former attracts allocation-type capitalBTC Liquidation Map Data Analysis
Current price is around 82480, positioned in a relative vacuum zone between two major liquidation clusters above and below. The short-term directional choice will determine the next wave of liquidity hunting direction.
Lower liquidity structure: The 80000-82000 range has an extremely dense accumulation of long liquidation orders. At position 80064, the largest single liquidation bar in the entire market appears, with Bybit exchange alone accounting for about 145 million USD; 80666, 81268, and 81870 form multiple layers of dense liquidation bands. According to data from OKX alone, the lower liquidation bars are almost entirely dominated by 100x leverage (orange bars), with the high-leverage long liquidation intensity at positions 80142, 80541, and 81111 all exceeding 30 million USD. This indicates a large accumulation of fragile high-leverage long positions below. Once the price falls and breaks through 82000, it will trigger a chain reaction of forced long liquidations, accelerating the decline.
Upper liquidity structure: The 82988-83590 range contains multiple layers of short liquidation clusters, with a short liquidation bar of about 70 million USD appearing at 83590 on Bybit. The upper short liquidation intensity is overall weaker than the lower side, but the green cumulative short liquidation curve above 84000 continues to rise to a scale of 900 million, indicating that a large amount of short stop-loss orders remain waiting to be triggered at higher levels.Solana's on-chain data exploded, but the coin dropped from 122 to 105; the divergence will be clear the day after tomorrow.
RWA scale grew from $700 million to $4.3 billion in one year, a 6x increase, with its share of Ethereum rising from 4.5% to 26%.
In the past 30 days, application revenue reached $193 million, ranking first across all chains, nearly double that of the second place.
Yet SOL still fell from 122 at the end of September to 105 now, and the spot ETF has seen almost daily net outflows since late September.
I think the market isn’t foolish; this money is probably mostly supported by memes and launchpads, about 80% of revenue comes from consumer applications, while institutional US Treasury RWA remains on Ethereum.
The hype is real, but the substance is questionable.
On October 21, the day after tomorrow, the Alpenglow upgrade will finalize, cutting confirmation time from 12.8 seconds to 150 milliseconds; it’s both a catalyst and a potential black swan for downtime.
I won’t bet early: only recognize a rebound if volume breaks above 113; if it falls below the 100 mark, watch 95, and never catch a falling knife.
Will you choose to buy the rebound or the dip? Will the upgrade lift SOL, or will the good news be fully priced in and push it down?

In the past month, the "institutional bull" filter in the crypto market has been rapidly fading.
BTC spot ETFs have fallen from net inflows of hundreds of billions in the first month to a tug-of-war of "alternating positives and negatives," with daily capital outflows frequently seen; ETH spot ETFs have opened high but closed low, with a continuous weakening of capital attraction. When institutional incremental funds collectively hit the brakes, market divergence also reaches its peak: after this round of adjustment, who will be the first to see capital return, BTC or ETH?
1. First understand: why did institutional funds suddenly become "unattractive"?
Before discussing who will return first, we must first see why the money is leaving.
The core reasons for this institutional fund retreat are twofold:
First, repeated shifts in macro expectations. The Federal Reserve's rate cut expectations have been repeatedly postponed, the US dollar index and US Treasury yields have strengthened, risk assets across the market are under pressure, and institutions tend to take profits and reduce positions;
Second, a narrative vacuum. After the BTC halving benefits have been realized, the market lacks new strong catalysts; the benefits of the ETH Cancun upgrade have also been priced in, and there is no short-term definitive event to leverage large funds.
Simply put: it's not that institutions are bearish on crypto, but that the current "cost-performance ratio is insufficient," and funds are waiting for clearer entry signals.
2. BTC: the institution's "base position first choice," the first stop for capital return
If capital return is likened to institutional bottom-fishing, BTC is always the first choice, with three core logics:
The consensus base is the most stable, liquidity is unmatched $HYPE Negative News: Third-party gateways act as siphons, 400,000 retail investors suffer heavy losses
Data shows that 400,000 retail investors accessing Hyperliquid through third-party apps like Phantom and MetaMask have collectively lost as much as $280 million.
The most critical issue is that losses caused by "application fees" actually exceed the losses from the trades themselves, and user retention after losses is extremely low.
This fully exposes how the current high front-end commissions are devouring users' principal.
In the current market of extremely reduced volume and stock competition, funds are already scarce.
Third-party apps charge high friction costs by leveraging traffic gateways, combined with the risks of contract trading, directly causing retail investors to be quickly shuffled out.
This short-sighted, exploitative model severely damages the ecosystem's reputation and further accelerates the depletion of on-platform liquidity.#TeslaQ3ProfitAndMargins Unitree Robotics breaks out of the big A-shares robot independent rally? Market cap returns above 200 billion yuan
Today, Unitree Robotics (688836) surged over 16% intraday, currently trading around 496 yuan, showing a strong independent rally.
But the crypto perpetual contracts tell a completely different story 🧐🧐 $UNITREE is experiencing extreme negative funding ratesThe Middle East is pushing oil prices up, the Federal Reserve refuses to ease, global assets are all getting hit, can Bitcoin really dodge this?
Just recap last week to understand:
Tensions in the Middle East rise → crude oil surges → inflation expectations revive → CPI exceeds expectations → funds rush to US Treasuries, US Treasury yields break 5.1% → the dollar strengthens, global dollars flow back to the US → liquidity is drained → Nasdaq drops 5.5%, semiconductors fall for eight consecutive days, AI chains crash first as a warning.
What about Bitcoin?
Did it fall? Yes.
But compared to US stocks and altcoins, it’s a "lighter fall"—don’t mistake that for strength.
Trading volume dropped to about 43% of normal, what does that mean? It’s not a bottom lock-in bull market, the main players don’t want to move either, all waiting for the FOMC decision on October 28.
Technically, don’t get too excited either:
The daily and weekly charts showed a "bullish engulfing" pattern in the morning session, and smaller timeframes had an oversold rebound;
But the daily chart is still in a bearish setup, price is capped by the 20-day moving average at 83,500;
Until it breaks above 83,500, it’s just a weak recovery, not a trend reversal;
In short: macro is draining liquidity, technicals are compressing like a spring, and the main players are waiting for the rate decision.
Trying to catch a rebound now is risky—you might make a little but lose a lot.
Don’t believe "the bull is back" before the 28th,
Bitcoin isn’t standing alone now, it’s just "falling slower while waiting for news."
Wait for the FOMC to set the tone on rate hikes or no hikes, hawkish or dovish, then the real direction will be clear. $BTC $BTC #NetflixQ3AdsAndMargins #TeslaQ3ProfitAndMargins After looking at this company's financial report, I can only say it's quite miserable; not every company is suited to blindly hoard coins!
The 2026 financial report of ANAP, a Japanese TSE-listed apparel company, shows:
Last year, it made a book profit of 1.219 billion yen from hoarding Bitcoin, but this year it directly turned into a valuation loss of 4.375 billion yen, roughly equivalent to 180 million RMB.
After digging a bit, I found ANAP is really unlucky;BTC funding rate just turned positive. Is this wave a chase for gains or a shakeout? Why is ETH still going its own way? Just glanced at the perpetual market: BTC funding rate flipped from negative to positive, slightly above the 0.005% baseline. My first reaction was "Oh, sentiment is warming up," but after watching for two seconds, I calmed down — it's only a little above, indicating longs are willing to pay to hold, but the interest isn't hot. It feels more like tentative position building rather than a collective rush to chase gains.✨ Interestingly, ETH is completely inconsistent. Some big players still bet on downside, with rates below the baseline, and overall positions are more in a wait-and-see mode. This kind of directional divergence between BTC and ETH often means the market hasn't formed a consensus expectation yet and is still in a game of tug-of-war — it's neither a start nor a distribution, more like the early stage of a disagreement. My own understanding is: BTC's funding rate turning mildly positive represents a marginal improvement in risk appetite, but not strong enough to support a one-sided rally; ETH's bearish bets plant hidden risks for a rebound. If BTC's funding rate continues to rise and ETH shorts start covering, that would be a confirming signal of trend continuation. Conversely, if the funding rate spikes then quickly falls back and price can't rise, be cautious — this might be a shakeout rather than a start. No obvious capital outflow from altcoins for now, indicating everyone is still probing within mainstream coins, not yet fully venturing out. So at this stage, it feels more like a choppy, game-of-chess rhythm, not a blind chase phase. The bullish path depends on a mild rise in funding rates driving sentiment recovery; the bearish risk lies in ETH's bearish positioning.$ETH The trend of Ethereum (ETH) in the next two weeks will determine the market direction for Q4: At the end of June, ETH tested the $1505 level for the second time but did not break below it — my judgment is that from $1505, ETH entered a weekly-level uptrend, subsequently rising over 85%. What is my current view? To be straightforward: $1505-$2807 is ETH's first weekly-level uptrend, and from $2807 onward, it is a correction of that trend, not a new downtrend. After breaking through and stabilizing above $2500, it confirms that ETH has temporarily stopped falling, and $2807-$2318 is the entire or partial weekly-level correction. If $2807-$2318 is the complete weekly correction range, then the new weekly uptrend started at $2318. The current upward momentum is insufficient to support this trend expectation, so the blue section is temporarily regarded as part of the correction. Since the decline in the blue section is part of the correction, the rise starting from $2318 is a rebound against it. This rebound will end as early as this week or as late as next weekend, after which Ethereum will continue to adjust. The longer and larger the rebound, the higher the possibility that after the rebound ends, there will be sideways consolidation rather than a sharp decline. After completing the entire weekly correction, a new weekly uptrend will begin, with explosive power even stronger than the $1505-$2807 range. $BTC $SOL The Middle East is pushing oil prices up, the Federal Reserve refuses to ease, global assets are all taking a hit, can Bitcoin really avoid it?
Let's recap last week to understand:
Tensions rise in the Middle East → crude oil surges → inflation expectations revive → CPI exceeds expectations → funds rush to US Treasuries, US Treasury yields break 5.1% → the dollar strengthens, global dollars flow back to the US → liquidity is drained → Nasdaq drops 5.5%, semiconductors fall for eight consecutive days, AI chains crash first as a warning.
What about Bitcoin?
Did it fall? Yes.
But compared to US stocks and altcoins, it’s a "lighter fall"—don’t mistake that for strength.
Trading volume dropped to about 43% of normal, what does this mean? It’s not a bottom lock-in bull market, the main players don’t want to move either, all waiting for the FOMC decision on October 28.
Technically, don’t get too excited either:
The daily and weekly charts showed a "bullish engulfing" pattern in the morning session, and smaller timeframes had an oversold rebound;
But the daily chart is still in a bearish setup, price is suppressed by the 20-day moving average at 83,500;
Until it breaks above 83,500, it’s just a weak recovery, not a trend reversal;
In short: macro is draining liquidity, technicals are compressing like a spring, and the main players are waiting for the rate decision.
Trying to catch a rebound now means small gains but big risks.
Don’t believe "the bull is back" before the 28th,
Bitcoin isn’t standing alone now, it’s "falling slower while waiting for news."
Wait for the FOMC to set the tone on rate hikes/no hikes/hawkish or dovish stance, then the real direction will be clear. $BTC Market calendar for the next 7 days: policy, earnings reports, and upgrades running in parallel.
Monday: China's GDP (expected +4.4%) and LPR set the tone for domestic demand;
Tuesday: ZRO unlocks 23.63 million tokens, accounting for 5.91% of circulation;
Wednesday: SOL launches the Alpenglow upgrade, with a final target confirmation of 150 milliseconds, but TPS statistics may sharply drop due to changes in the voting mechanism;
Thursday: Tesla and Meta post-earnings reports, with the core question being whether AI investments can translate into cash flow;
Weekend: Humanity and XPL concentrated unlocks.
The real highlights are on 10.27–28 with the FOMC and on 11.3 with the midterm elections — oil prices and US Treasury yields remain the pricing anchors.#NetflixQ3AdsAndMargins #Robinhood交易业务增长能否延续？
Robinhood is set to release its Q3 earnings after the market closes next Monday, on the 27th. The data this time is expected to shock quite a few people.
Recently, many have been bearish based on its on-chain data, saying that in early October, DEX trading volume directly shrank by 30%, dropping to $6.35 billion, making people wonder if the hype is fading. But if you look closer, something interesting emerges. During the same period, the total locked value (TVL) in the DeFi ecosystem didn’t drop; instead, it rose to $1.058 billion.
What does this mean? The money hasn’t left; it just moved to a different playground. Previously, everyone rushed into Meme coins, but now they’re playing staking and lending, with funds truly staying on-chain.
What’s the impact?
First, the path of stock tokenization and RWA has truly been pioneered by this guy. Robinhood directly put US stock tokens onto its own public chain. Before, people thought traditional brokers on-chain were just gimmicks, but now it’s clear they really retained traffic and money. In the future, traditional finance money entering the market will most likely go through this compliant channel.
Second, it’s good for the crypto ecosystem but also means competition is fiercer. Trading volume dropped 30%, but money went into DeFi, indicating stronger user stickiness. Robinhood naturally has tens of millions of retail users; with it building a public chain, native DEXs and public chains face huge pressure. If this earnings report beats expectations, it will boost the entire RWA sector.
What’s your take? $BTC #Is achieving 100x growth with small capital reliant on aggressive heavy positions?
Tracked an address that started with 3000U and scaled the capital to 2 million U within two months.
Outsiders only see the final capital increase, but I focus on dissecting its survival strategy. I found that the address split 1200U into three parts: one part for short-term trading to practice feel, one part waiting for trend markets, and the remaining funds reserved as base positions. When there are no suitable opportunities, it stays out of the market, setting stop-losses in advance for each trade and not adding positions after losses.
This behavior indicates that the core advantage of small capital is flexible exit rather than chasing high multiples. However, we cannot judge that this strategy is replicable based solely on this capital trajectory; single high returns involve luck. Going forward, focus on observing holding periods and stop-loss execution of similar small accounts. For each of your trades, where would you place the stop-loss?
$BTC $ETH $SOL #Institutional funds weaken, who will see the first inflow, BTC or ETH? Both ETF and treasury buying are weak, BTC under pressure, altcoins even worse
From October 12 to 16, the US BTC spot ETF saw a net outflow of about $228.4 million, and ETH a net outflow of about $320.1 million, with capital withdrawal spreading from BTC to ETH. Corporate Bitcoin treasuries slowed their accumulation, and Galaxy Research pointed out that ETF and treasury buying are unable to absorb the supply released by long-term holders, with a cumulative supply-demand deficit of about 127,300 BTC this year. The 141 altcoins tracked by 10x Research fell an average of 14% last week, while BTC only dropped about 3% in the same period, with trading volume and stablecoin supply contracting in sync.
Logical analysis: The core contradiction is the weakening institutional absorption capacity. ETF turning to net outflow and treasury accumulation slowing, while long-term holders are releasing chips, the supply-demand gap suppresses prices. The larger decline in altcoins compared to BTC indicates capital concentration towards mainstream coins; the contraction in stablecoin supply means insufficient incremental funds, leaving the rebound without fuel.
Trading strategy: This is not a bottom-fishing window but a time to observe signs of bleeding stopping. Focus on whether BTC can hold the 80,000 support and rebound with volume to reclaim the 83,000-84,000 resistance, as well as whether ETF outflows slow and ETH outflows narrow. If BTC stabilizes but ETH continues to outflow, ETH/BTC still faces downside risk; if both major mainstreams stop falling simultaneously and ETF turns to net inflow, altcoins will have conditions to recover. Control position size and set good stop losses. 500U Challenge to 1 Million [300x] | Day 37

Recent updates:
Making money in crypto, spending in US stocks, account shrinking rapidly;
Although I anticipated BTC leading a correction in crypto at 85,500, I did not expect the global stock market crash;
Global stock markets plunged, Nasdaq fell 8 consecutive days, Korean index plummeted, I was heavily invested in MU Micron and Rocket SPCX and suffered heavy losses by not following stop-loss rules;
MU Micron lost 147.76U; partial liquidation of Rocket SPCX lost 188.23U + about 50U unrealized loss;
Bottomed MU at 1032 that day, added positions at 1018, set full stop-loss at 995, but foolishly canceled it when the price was about to break 1000, choosing to keep averaging down;
From now on, remember Livermore's advice: "When handling losing positions, never buy again at a low point trying to lower the average cost."
After reflecting these days, I summarize in one sentence: I made a common trader's mistake: eager for quick success, always thinking to recover losses in a very short time, so after the MU lesson, I made the same mistake on SPCX. $BTC #BTC sideways stalemate, will altcoins be the first to break out?
Current market divergence: should we wait for BTC to break the range, or pay attention to capital rotation first? Data shows BTC is in a range-bound state, and capital flow may be a leading indicator.
First, BTC dominance has declined for two consecutive days, but the coin price has not weakened significantly, only indicating a tendency for funds to shift to higher volatility assets, unable to confirm that rotation has landed. Second, ETH/BTC daily candles have risen continuously with increased volume, indicating ETH's relative strength and a sign of rising market risk appetite. Third, altcoins need to hold above the 7-day high and have 24-hour trading volume reach 1.5 times the 7-day average to form an initial rotation signal.
When multiple signals resonate, you can try opening positions with 20%-30% of planned funds and wait for a pullback; if only a single signal appears, remain on the sidelines. Altcoins are highly volatile, always set stop-loss on each trade, keep total account risk under 1%, and avoid high leverage. If BTC holds the range, continue to track altcoin rotation opportunities; if it breaks below the lower boundary of the range, stop opening new altcoin positions.

The key point is that if Netflix reports earnings per share of 0.84 USD, the "No" bet wins, even if the business performance might still be decent.

On November 3, 2026, the United States will hold midterm elections:
1. All 435 seats in the House of Representatives
2. 35 seats in the Senate
3. Governors, state legislators, and local officials in multiple states
The House of Representatives is elected by district, with 218 seats constituting a majority; the Senate is elected by state, and if there is a 50-50 split, the Vice President can cast the deciding vote.
The reason the U.S. has midterm elections is because the President’s term is 4 years, House members serve 2 years, and Senators serve 6 years with about one-third up for election every two years. This staggered election system is intentional, allowing voters to readjust congressional power between two presidential elections.
Congress holds legislative, budgetary, personnel review, and administrative investigation powers. If the Republicans hold both chambers, Trump would have more room to push tax, immigration, energy, tariff, and cash distribution plans; if the Democrats take the House, the White House will face stronger budget negotiation and oversight pressure; if the Senate also changes hands, key appointments and legislative negotiations will be affected.
The President’s party often loses the House in midterm elections. From 1934 to 2022, in 23 midterm elections, the President’s party lost House seats 20 times, mainly due to governing costs, declining voter turnout, and opposition mobilization.
Therefore, the $5,000 promise is most likely just an empty check. BTC Liquidation Map Data Analysis
The current price is running around 82480, exactly stuck in the liquidity vacuum zone between two clusters of liquidations above and below. The short-term directional choice next will guide the market to hunt the corresponding liquidity.
On the downside liquidity level, a massive amount of long forced liquidation chips are accumulated in the 80000-82000 range. 80064 is the largest single liquidation bar in the entire market, with about 145 million USD on Bybit alone. Meanwhile, 80666, 81268, and 81870 form multiple layers of dense liquidation bands.
On the OKX market, most of the liquidation bars below are 100x high-leverage long positions. The high-leverage long liquidation scales at 80142, 80541, and 81111 all exceed 30 million USD. A large number of fragile high-leverage long positions are accumulated here; once it breaks below 82000, chained forced liquidations will accelerate the decline.
On the upside liquidity, 82988-83590 is a multi-layer short liquidation cluster, with about 70 million USD short liquidation bar at 83590 on Bybit.
The strength of this short liquidation wave above is weaker than below, but the cumulative short liquidation scale above 84000 has risen to 900 million USD. A large amount of short stop-loss orders are still reserved at high levels, waiting for the price to rise and trigger them.

$BTC $ETH $SOL BTC at $82,800, do you still dare to chase?
ETF outflows of 229 million in five days, the Fed just raised rates, yet it climbed back to 82,800—Is this a bull trap or a chance to get in?
ETF net outflow in October is 617 million, with 229 million outflow in the last five days; institutions are running, the bear is coming.
Oil prices fell back, US stock futures strengthened, ETH and SOL fully rebounded, the bull is back.
ETF outflows scare off short-term traders, while on-chain accumulation is absorbing the bloodied chips. The price hasn’t broken 80,000; instead, it stands above SMA50 (around 81,400) and SMA200 (around 72,500).
First: ETF outflow of 600 million, have institutions really fled?
Since October, US spot Bitcoin ETFs have seen a net outflow of about $617 million, with $229 million outflow in the last five trading days. Sounds like a big institutional retreat?
But look at another set of data: the proportion of mid-term holders (6-12 months) transferring to exchanges has significantly decreased, on-chain mid-to-large holders are accumulating, and the fear and greed index is 50-60, moving from neutral to mild greed.
Institutions are swing trading ETFs, big holders are hoarding on-chain, and you’re getting played by emotions.
Second: The Fed just raised rates, CPI at 3.7%, why didn’t BTC crash?
In September, the Fed raised rates by 25 basis points to 3.75%-4.00%, the first hike in 2023. CPI year-over-year at 3.7% exceeded expectations, mainly driven by energy, with signs of core inflation rising; unemployment at 4.2%, nonfarm payrolls weak. The next FOMC is on October 27-28, with the market pricing in a hold.
The rate hike is old news, already priced in; inflation stickiness limits rapid rate cuts, but employment resilience provides support. The real tail risk isn’t the Fed, but oil prices and a second spike in the Middle East. Today oil prices fell back, and risk appetite immediately caught a breather.
Third: Technicals, 83,500 is bait, 80,000 is the trump card
Currently at 82,800, daily consolidation is near the upper range. Price stands above SMA50 and SMA200, mid-term structure intact; RSI 51-52 neutral; support at 81,000-81,500 is strong, tested multiple times near SMA50, then 80,000 is a psychological level and previous low. Breaking below 80,000 could open the 77,000-78,500 range.
Resistance: Immediate at 83,000-83,500, near 84,500, then 87,000 is the earlier high this month, repeatedly resisted. After falling from 86-87k in early October, it’s been oscillating between 80k-85k, forming higher lows.
Only a volume-backed close above 83,500 opens the path to 84,500-85,500; if rejected and falling back, it may retest 81,500.
82,800 is not the end, it’s the test; 83,500 is not a breakout, it’s a trap door.
The real bull-bear line isn’t at 83,500, it’s at 80,000.
Bull vs. bear, judge for yourself:
On the bullish side:
- Above SMA50 and SMA200, mid-term structure intact
- On-chain mid-to-large holders accumulating, mid-term selling pressure decreasing
- Oil prices falling back, risk appetite rising
- MVRV 1.53-1.57, recovery/accumulation zone, not overheated
- Fear and greed index 50-60, neutral to slightly greedy
On the bearish side:
- ETF net outflow of 617 million in October, 229 million in last 5 days, institutions cautious
- Fed just hiked rates, CPI 3.7%, inflation stickiness remains
- Multiple rejections at 83,000-83,500, heavier resistance at 87,000
- Moderate volume, breakout unconfirmed
- Breaking below 80,000 could accelerate drop to 77,000-78,500
Trading strategy
Short-term perpetual:
- Buy lightly on a pullback to 82,000-82,200 with stabilization, stop loss below 81,500, target 83,500-84,500.
- Or wait for a breakout and hold above 83,300-83,500, preferably with volume, target 84,500-85,500, stop loss if falls below 82,500.
- If clearly rejected at 83,000-83,500 with bearish reversal candle, short lightly, target 81,500-81,000, stop loss above 83,500.
Heavy chasing at current price is not recommended. Near the range top, better to reduce positions or wait.
Mid-term:
- Hold 80,000-81,000 to maintain bullish stance, target 87,000. If broken below 80,000, reassess and possibly switch to defensive. On-chain accumulation signals support buying dips, but wait for macro clarity: FOMC, oil prices, ETF flows.
The worst position isn’t missing the ride, but chasing at 83,500 with stop loss at 81,500, only to find the ride never started.
Holding 80,000 means bears are paper tigers; breaking 80,000 means bulls are paper planes.
Don’t mistake a rebound for a reversal, don’t mistake a pullback for a crash. $BTC $ETH $BZ #机构资金转弱，BTC与ETH谁先迎来回流？ BTC has tried to break through 87,000 several times but hasn't succeeded; altcoins can't hold up and are falling one after another. In October, altcoins generally dropped over 30%, sharply halving in value: $UNI down over 30%, ZEC over 35%, VVV up to 40%, PUMP over 35%, and non-mainstream coins look even worse. Those that rose more before are falling harder, while those that rose less are falling more lightly.
The key point is BTC is still hovering around 83,000. Many say from a technical perspective it already has a stage top structure, and on the news front there is no positive news, only negatives; the weakness is obvious. My view is BTC may continue to fluctuate, even return above 87,000, but most altcoins no longer have good cost-performance; there will be rebounds, but the next time it hits a top, the drop will look even worse.
Over 90% are bad altcoins, including ETH. Now, big players in ETH either act like Justin Sun earning liquidity interest or like Bitmine raising funds while staking to earn interest; the fundamentals are basically poor. Last time at 5,000, this mid-term rebound to 2,800 is already the limit; dropping another 1,000+ is easy. When BTC pulls back 4%, ETH can drop 20%.
Since June, both the potential to rise and resilience to fall have been inferior to SOL; the entire ETH sector also lost to SOL this round. This confirms previous judgments: you want the US system, you want the SOL system; the only ETH token still doing okay is UNI, but that mainly relies on liquidity and is not strongly correlated. #AI或推GDP至44万亿，投资能否回本？ HBAR's spot trading volume yesterday expanded 4.4 times, with the price rising 3.55%.

Yesterday was just a turnover; today is building positions.
Turnover doesn't change the pattern; building positions does.
Out of 50 perpetual contracts in the whole market, 39 are reducing positions.
Only 11 are increasing positions, with HBAR increasing the most.
Others are exiting, it is entering, yet the price is falling.
This is a different kind of death compared to STRK.
STRK has no one trading, shrinking volume with a slow decline.
HBAR is being taken over by leverage, but it can't hold.
In volume-driven declines, sellers really want to leave.
In volume-shrinking declines, it's just that no one is willing to come.
The former will fall quickly; the latter will fall for a long time.

On the macro level, dovish signals have already landed in advance.
The Federal Reserve meeting is not until October 28, and next week officially enters the blackout period for interest rate decisions. After Waller released dovish remarks, the market has priced the probability of an October rate hike down to below 15%. The weakening dollar indirectly provides bottom support for BTC and ETH. However, with no CPI data next week, don't expect significant market volatility.
Traditional financial events continue to ferment:
From 10.19 to 10.22, the Beijing Financial Street Forum will discuss blockchain and the digital yuan; on October 20, the Frankfurt Capital & Code conference will focus on payments and digital assets. Overall, the impact on BTC is neutral, but ETH's RWA and stablecoin narratives are expected to gain some heat.
⚠️ Hidden bearish factors for ETH:
SEC funding interruptions, new ETH ETF approvals remain stalled; VanEck proactively withdrew its Lido staked ETH ETF application. The ETH staking narrative lacks new catalysts in the short term, making its trend weaker compared to BTC. $BTC $SOL Yushu Technology Today's Surge Quick Review: The Resonance of Policy, Events, and Oversold Conditions
📈 What is rising?
Today's surge is the concentrated release of triple catalysts after a deep adjustment: the first batch of national standards for humanoid robots (released on October 15, with Wang Xingxing as one of the drafters), a joint document from the Ministry of Commerce and 8 other departments promoting embodied intelligence in commercial logistics and other scenarios (October 19), combined with the early fermentation of expectations for the October 22 Ecosystem Conference and Nvidia GTC events. Previously, the stock price fell from above ¥1100 to ¥405, and the oversold chip structure has amplified the rebound elasticity.
⚠️ Risk in one sentence
JPMorgan Chase's "reduce" rating with a target price of ¥300 remains a valuation anchor hanging overhead—currently corresponding to a 2027 price-to-sales ratio of about 46 times, while JPMorgan believes a reasonable level is only 30 times. More critically, although revenue is growing rapidly, net profit excluding non-recurring items is shrinking: in the first half of 2026, net profit excluding non-recurring items dropped 19.34% year-on-year; over 70% of humanoid robot revenue in the first three quarters of 2025 came from scientific research and education, and real volume growth in industrial and commercial scenarios has yet to be verified in the financial statements.
🔑 In the short term, focus on two nodes: whether the October 22 Ecosystem Conference can provide quantifiable orders or a roadmap for implementation; whether the net profit excluding non-recurring items growth rate in the Q3 report on October 29 can turn positive. This is an event-driven rebound, and the realization pace determines sustainability. Those chasing the high need to be clear about what they are gambling on.BTC at this position, I'm not in a hurry to chase longs. Retail investors are still bullish, but large holders are clearly bearish, and bulls and bears are opposing each other.
OKX latest long-short ratio:
Retail: 1.48. Still bullish, but the long-short ratio continues to decline.
Number of large holders: 0.64. Bears dominate.
Large holders' positions: 0.56. Still bearish, but the value is starting to rise.
Main force inclination: bearish.
My judgment: In the short term, first guard against a rebound being blocked, then see if there is an opportunity to go short with the trend. Retail bulls are crowded, large holders' positions are bearish, the cost-effectiveness of chasing highs is not high.
But now is also not suitable for blindly chasing shorts. If BTC breaks through the resistance level with volume and the large holders' position ratio continues to rise, be wary of bears being counterattacked.
Trading plan: Consider shorting again if the rebound is blocked; re-evaluate if there is a volume breakout. No signal, no action, no gambling against the market.
The long-short ratio is only a reference; ultimately, it depends on whether the price can establish a direction.This week, 20 projects will unlock a total amount exceeding $180 million. The key one to avoid is: AKE.
$AKE will unlock 2.108 billion tokens on October 21, valued between $63 million and $67 million, accounting for 9.25% of the market cap. Nine percentage points may not sound like much, but out of the total supply of 100 billion, only 22.79 billion are currently circulating, with 77.2 billion tokens still locked. When this kind of large supply rebounds, it often serves to prop up the unlocked chips. There are also AKE perpetual contracts on OKX; combined with contract leverage and unlocking, volatility will only increase.
The second is $ZRO, which will unlock 23.28 million tokens at 7 PM on October 20, valued at $43.3 million, ranking second in this round by amount. The ratio of 3.83% is not alarming, but this time the tokens are allocated to core contributors and strategic partners; compared to community airdrops, these addresses are more willing to sell. Monitoring net inflows on exchanges is more useful than just watching the price.
$XPL also deserves attention. On October 25 at 8 PM, 227 million tokens will unlock, valued at $17.9 million, accounting for 5.02% of circulation. Plasma is a new coin with a thin circulating supply, so the marginal price impact of the same amount of money will be much greater than for older coins.
The remaining projects have amounts between $5 million and $15 million, with limited impact. H has the highest unlock ratio, but its circulating supply is very small, so the actual impact depends on liquidity.
No need to clear positions this week; the unlocks are not scary. What’s scary is chasing in the day before the unlock and realizing the next day that you can’t get out.SNDK crashed again, but I'm laughing
A week ago, I cut my losses on SNDK for 17U at 1,449, posting "This cut saved my life." This week it dropped to a low of 1,216, 16% lower than my cut-loss price.
If I had been soft-hearted and held on that day, I would have lost over 200U on a single position — my entire account only has 76U. In other words, if I hadn’t cut then, this account would already be dead, with no chance of a comeback.
Today it rebounded 10 points, and someone in the group asked if I should buy back in. I said: no. It fell from 1,800, the downtrend channel hasn’t been broken, this kind of rebound is just a last flicker. Even if it really reverses, the wall above 1,400 will test that for me first. Some money is just not meant for you to earn; recognizing this is worth more than catching a rebound.
Whether your ex is doing well or not has nothing to do with you — this is the full meaning of cutting losses.
