📊 $HYPE Liquidation Flash Report (August 7)
According to liquidation data, short-term shorts were crushed hard, but mid-to-long-term longs suffered a bloodbath...
Liquidation amount in the past 1 hour is about $573.43
Long liquidations about $0
Short liquidations about $573.43
Liquidation amount in the past 4 hours is about $28,700
Long liquidations about $25,500
Short liquidations about $3,185.74
Liquidation amount in the past 12 hours is about $766,800
Long liquidations about $415,500
Short liquidations about $351,300
Liquidation amount in the past 24 hours is about $1,374,700
Long liquidations about $981,000
Short liquidations about $393,700
From the $HYPE liquidation data, in the 1-hour window shorts crushed longs, dominating all liquidations with a fierce short squeeze blitz at the start; in 4 hours the direction abruptly reversed, longs crushed shorts with longs being 8 times the shorts, a full-scale long liquidation outbreak; in 12 hours the long advantage persisted but narrowed to about 1.18 times, with short squeeze pressure significantly increasing; in 24 hours long liquidations surged to $980,000, 2.5 times the shorts. The whale on HYPE completed a ruthless turnaround from short squeeze to long liquidation — short-term short chasers were targeted and blasted, mid-to-long-term long chasers wiped out, with total liquidations exceeding $1.37 million. Everyone should control their positions carefully to avoid being harvested back and forth.
🔥 Market Barometer | August 7
Today's three hot topics point to the same theme: the market has entered a stage of "not only good, but flawlessly good" — "exceeding expectations" is just the entry ticket, any flaw will be magnified.
💾 SanDisk: 372% growth + $14 billion buyback, still knocked down by "not impressive enough"
SanDisk delivered explosive earnings: Q4 revenue $8.97 billion, up 372% year-over-year; adjusted EPS $39.25, 135 times that of a year ago; board approved $14 billion stock buyback plan. Full-year revenue $20.25 billion, up 175% year-over-year.
However, after-hours stock price plunged nearly 8%. The culprit was next quarter guidance — revenue midpoint $10.55 billion, below market expectation of $10.82 billion. Gross margin guidance of 83%-85% implies high margins may plateau. 372% growth is not enough, $14 billion buyback is not enough — the market demands "perfection."
💳 Circle: USDC growth steady, Arc becomes new narrative
Before market on August 5, stablecoin giant Circle released Q2 results: total revenue $701 million, up 7% year-over-year; net profit $48 million, turning profitable from loss last year. USDC circulation reached $73.3 billion, up 19%; on-chain transaction volume $14.8 trillion, up 151% year-over-year.
The biggest highlight is Arc — the company significantly raised full-year other income guidance to $310-$330 million, mainly reflecting $242 million Arc token presale revenue confirmed in Q2. USDC is the base, Arc is the future the market is betting on. Against the backdrop of increasing crypto payment penetration, Circle is trying to upgrade from "stablecoin issuer" to "crypto financial infrastructure platform."
🚀 SpaceX: Revenue doubled, unlocking peak is the real storm
After market on August 4, SpaceX released its first earnings report: Q2 revenue $7.814 billion, up 92% year-over-year, far exceeding the expected $6.9 billion; adjusted EBITDA $3.5 billion.
After-hours stock price once plunged over 9%. Capital expenditure soared to $18.4 billion, 6.5 times that of the same period last year — the market rewards spending efficiency, not speed of burning cash. The bigger storm is on August 6: about 912 million restricted shares unlock, with a market value of $114 billion, equivalent to 1.4 times the current circulating supply. Less than two months after listing, the stock price has nearly halved from its peak.
💎 Summary
SanDisk traded 372% growth for an after-hours plunge, SpaceX traded 92% revenue growth for a market vote with feet — "exceeding expectations" has become the passing line, only "perfection" can satisfy investors.
As the AI sector moves from "storytelling" to "delivering results," every deviation in guidance and every dollar of capital expenditure will be scrutinized under the spotlight. Old logic is collapsing, new pricing power is forming — and it punishes all "imperfect" answers. #闪迪财报双超预期，新增140亿美元回购授权
#Circle财报后押注Arc，USDC能否迎来新增长？
#财报观察员：业绩喜忧参半，解禁将至！SpaceX后续怎么看？ BTC is at $64,300, and ETH is near $1,905, generally in a high-level oscillation pattern. BTC has held above the 64,000 level, showing short-term bullish but obvious resistance above. It is recommended to focus on breakout volume. ETH is relatively weak and linked to Bitcoin but lacks elasticity. If BTC pulls back, ETH may be the first to come under pressure. In contract trading, avoid chasing highs; if it pulls back to key support, lighten positions and test long positions, strictly stop losses, and be wary of false breakouts.Here are some TLDR notes about $AAOI's earnings report:
- Its hyperscale customers are expected to complete full certification of 1.6T products within the next few weeks
(Favorable Revenue Growth #2, Timeline)
- Continued belief that AOI will have the largest AI data center transceiver production capacity in the United States
(Reaffirming ambition while competitors may be banned)
- Facilities targeting InP capacity are expected to go online in early 2027
(Further growth timeline FYI)
- Total capacity is close to 200,000/u per month, reaching 650,000/u of 800g/1.6t by year-end. By the end of 2027, 930,000/u
(This is the growth I want to see)
- "Increase manufacturing capacity for our external light sources or ELSFP. This is for co-packaged optics or CPO. We expect to gradually expand production later this year and through 2027, ultimately reaching about 400,000 units per month by 2028."
(Some time will be needed to model this into the income)
- "As we mentioned earlier, we have been manufacturing lasers in-house for many years. This has allowed us to avoid certain shortages that would affect other players in the industry."
(Bull Market Case of Vertical Integration During the CW/EML Laser Shortage)
- We believe that CPOs will continue to drive increased demand for high-power lasers in the future
(Validation of arguments in the CPO field)
- "Achieving our long-term goal of restoring non-GAAP gross margin to around 40%"
- "Our total cash equivalents at the end of the second quarter were $508.8 million"
I need to carefully check if the ATM is complete
- "Our overall ability to generate revenue, especially for 800G products, is currently limited by our production capacity." "If we can produce more, we can ship more now."
Demand > Supply verification.
- "Most of the increased capacity will be in the United States. Even so, I want to say, as I have always emphasized, this is still not enough to meet customer demand. Customer demand is 20%-40% higher. ”
The industry-wide non-saint photonics requirements validation, and the understanding of $LITE, $SIVE/$JBL, and other companies is impressive.
- "Not in the next two or three years, especially when demand is so high. Okay? Even if AI, $LITE, $COHR, $AVGO all add up, meeting customer needs in the coming years will still be very difficult."
More optical field needs are validated.
- CPO timeline: "If you're talking about truly high-capacity manufacturers [targeting the CPO market], I'd say it's more like later in the third quarter of next year" and "We've already worked very closely with at least five customers."
If you're concerned about the current financial report (I haven't read it very closely),
Revenue: $191 million vs. $190 million
Earnings per share: $0.06 vs. $0.02
TLDR: Exceptional demand in the laser + optics field is well understood. Some support Lumentum's CEO statement that the laser shortage is more severe than memory shortage.
Capacity growth in 2027 is proceeding as planned. To match the turning point period with the timeline, it will be around early next year, as stated in their last earnings call.
AAOI now has customers. The limitation is to manufacture enough lasers and transceivers.Why do I recommend everyone pay more attention to ETH?
Because since the start of this bear market, RWA has been the only sector to grow against the trend.
Even though crypto prices halved, ETF outflows occurred, and stablecoin growth dropped to zero, RWA scale grew from 5.4 billion at the beginning of the year to 31.8 billion in June
Tokenized government bonds triple in a year. What is still growing in a bear market is the embryo for the next bull market
This pattern has been historically validated: DeFi's TVL quietly rose at the tail end of the 2019-2020 bear market and then became the main theme in 2021.
In the next bull market, RWA will be the main narrative, with funds revaluating related assets according to new stories,
Just like at the end of 2020, the market began valuing ETH with a "DeFi settlement layer" instead of "ICO fuel."
This repricing doesn't require revenue to come in first; it just needs the story to be adopted by institutional research reports. It's already happening: Farrell's primary reason for giving ETH greater flexibility is the RWA narrative🔥 Note: 🔥 Today, two bombs detonated at the same time, but someone is secretly trying to catch your bottom
Last night before going to bed, I glanced at my holdings, then at the calendar—August 7th, and my heart skipped a beat.
Today, two things happened simultaneously: at 8:30 PM, the US July nonfarm payroll data will be released, and the same day is the last working day before Senate summer break—the life-or-death window for the CLARITY crypto bill. Two bombs—one for monetary policy expectations, one for regulatory expectations. If either one explodes, BTC will have to jump.
But what really alerted me wasn't these two events themselves—it was what the funds beneath the market were doing.
Let's start with the price. BTC is now hovering near 64,300, down 0.46% in 24 hours, with trading volume shrinking to 18.7 billion, down 21% from yesterday. A classic case of "calm before the storm"—everyone is holding their breath for data. Technically, the 50-day moving average (64,500-64,600) has been like a wall for three weeks, and every time it touches it, it's knocked back. Above 65,000 is a hard wall; below 62,500-63,000 is the buyer's defense; below 61,400 is the basement.
Then I flipped through three sets of data, and the more I looked, the more interesting it seemed.
First, ETF funds secretly turned hostile. From late July to early August, there were net outflows for five consecutive days, with the worst single day losing 265 million yuan. But starting August 3rd, there were three consecutive days of net inflows—about 170 million on August 3, 210 million on August 4, and about 120 million on August 5. BlackRock IBIT alone held 76%, buying nearly 300 million yuan. More importantly, this inflow occurred when the Fear of Corruption Index was 25—extreme fear. Institutions entered the market when retail investors were most afraid.
Second, on-chain tokens are quietly changing hands. Whale addresses (over 100 BTC) net increased holdings by over 13,000 BTC in the first week of August, while retail addresses (below 10 BTC) lost nearly 14,000 BTC. Almost a one-to-one transfer. Do you know what this means? Terrified retail investors handed over their chips to calm large funds. "The most dangerous time in the market isn't a crash; it's when you think everyone has left, but when someone is picking up the tokens you discarded."
Third, funding rates are close to zero or even turning negative. On OKX, BTC perpetual contract fees are about -0.01%, with bears paying taxes to the bulls. With so few long sellers, once a catalyst appears, the short squeeze will be very fierce.
The biggest variable today is the nonfarm payroll at 8:30 PM. Last month, there were only 57,000 nonfarm payrolls, ridiculously weak; market expectations for this round are 85,000 to 130,000. If weakness continues, rate hike expectations cool, the dollar falls, and BTC surges—but the 65,000 wall won't get through unless volume ramps up. If it suddenly strengthens and rate hike expectations rise again, BTC will come under pressure. Whether the 62,500 defense line can hold is key. Here's another extra story: at 22:00, Fed's Barkin is going to speak. He's hawkish, strong nonfarm payrolls + Barkin hawkish = double blow.
Today's plan:
Don't open your position before the non-farm payroll season; wait for the data to come in before making moves
After the data, volume increased and it held steady at 65,000, then tested the pullback to 64,600 to go long, with a stop loss at 64,100
After the data, it broke below 62,500 with increased volume, rebounded to 63,000 to test short prices, and stopped loss at 63,700
If it fluctuates between 63,000 and 65,000, just watch; being short is also a type of position
"If you don't meet the conditions, don't move"—I've told myself this phrase more than a hundred times, but every time I feel an itch to face the data, I have to silently repeat it again.
How do you plan to respond to non-farm payrolls today? Short positions and wait-and-see or are you planning to make a move? Let's talk in the comments $BTC $ETH In the coming years, the most valuable resource may not be BTC, but electricity.
It may sound a bit exaggerated, but more and more mining companies have already started doing so.
They have gradually transformed mining farms, power resources, and even land into AI data centers.
Why?
Because with the same kWh, mining Bitcoin yields money from market cycles, while providing computing power to AI faces continuously growing demand.
Recently, there was another piece of data that surprised me quite a bit.
Bitcoin's 30-day average network hashrate has dropped from 1108 EH/s to 898 EH/s, marking nine consecutive months of decline with a cumulative decline of nearly 20%.
In the past, when mining power declined, people thought miners were just shutting down to avoid losses and waiting for the bull market to start again.
But this time, I don't think so.
Many mining companies have already started selling some BTC to raise funds for their AI business, indicating that some hash power may not be temporarily exiting, but permanently shifting to new tracks.
Of course, this does not mean Bitcoin is going to have problems.
The security of the Bitcoin network is fundamentally maintained by miners worldwide and will not fundamentally change just because a few listed mining companies transition.
But one thing is worth everyone's attention.
AI is taking away more and more electricity, chips, and computing resources.
The core of future market competition may not be just BTC, but who can control more energy and computing power.
This change is likely to become a new variable affecting the entire crypto market.
#黄金重返4200美元, why hasn't BTC risen in line with the rise? 📉 Stock Price and Trading Data
Close Plunge: AMD's stock price closed down about 7.04% that day, at $482.05.
Pre-market and Intraday Movement: Influenced by the earnings report, the stock opened sharply lower pre-market (with a drop exceeding 8% at one point), continued to face pressure after the open, and hit an intraday low of $478.20.
Capital Outflow: The daily trading volume expanded to 49.616 million shares, with a turnover of $24.13 billion, indicating clear profit-taking behavior.
📊 Core Reasons for the Market Decline
Guidance Falls Short of the "Most Optimistic" Expectations: Although AMD's Q2 2026 earnings report was very strong (revenue hit a record high of $11.536 billion, up 50% year-over-year; net profit surged 163% year-over-year), its midpoint revenue guidance for Q3 was $13 billion.
Market Demands "Accelerated Growth": While the $13 billion guidance exceeds Wall Street's average expectation of $12.5 billion, it failed to meet some aggressive analysts' upper limits of $13.5–14 billion. Given AMD's stock price has surged over 130% year-to-date, the market was buying into expectations of "accelerated growth," but the quarter-over-quarter growth guidance of only 13% was seen as maintaining the current pace, failing to signal an explosive acceleration in AI demand, which pressured valuations.
Gross Margin Outlook Raises Concerns: The company expects Q3 gross margin to remain steady at 56%, indicating that the high costs of early AI business deployment are diluting overall profitability. Investors' focus is shifting from "how fast growth is" to "how profitable growth is."
🔄 Market Capital Flow Divergence
Capital Concentrates on Leaders: AMD's sharp drop did not cause a full withdrawal of funds from the AI sector but triggered capital divergence within the sector. After profit-taking from AMD, funds flowed to AI absolute leader NVIDIA (which rose about 3.4% against the trend that day, achieving a five-day winning streak) and storage giant Micron Technology.
Sector-Wide Pressure: AMD's plunge also dragged down the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index, causing the semiconductor sector to show a pattern of rising then falling that day.
💡 Summary
AMD's market performance on August 6 was a typical case of "good news fully priced in" and "expectation-driven valuation cuts." The market is re-examining the return efficiency of AI investments with a critical eye, no longer blindly buying into the "follower" narrative but demanding that every AI investment produce definite, accelerated returns in the present.Closed on August 6 Eastern Time (morning of August 7 Beijing time), with a full focus on the storage industry chain analysis. 1. Overnight Overview of U.S. Stocks All three major indices closed lower, with significant divergence. The Dow Jones Industrial Average suffered a concentrated sell-off due to previous record highs, leading the single-day decline; The Nasdaq index only edged down, but the strength of major tech giants offset the drag on the semiconductor sector. On the eve of the nonfarm payroll report, the market is generally cautious, trading sentiment has turned cautious, and the sector-to-high and low trends are evident. • Dow Jones Industrial Average: -0.85%, closed at 53,885.10, down 464.02 points for the day, ending a five-day winning streak • S&P 500: -0.18%, closed at 7,709.96; Eleven major sectors fell and three rose, with industrials and real estate leading the declines, while energy and healthcare bucked the trend and closed higher. • Nasdaq Composite Index: -0.06%, closing at 26,348.35, AI leaders like Nvidia strengthened to hedge the storage sector's adjustment pressure • Fear Index VIX: Edged up to 16.2, marginal rise in pre-farm payroll risk aversion • Trading characteristics: Value blue chips pull back on increased volume, technology sector overall shrinks in volume; The storage sector saw a significant intraday surge in trading volume, with panic selling in the morning and bottom-fishing funds in the afternoon engaging in intense competition, resulting in a significant narrowing of losses. Core features of the market: The storage sector staged a "V-shaped reversal," with a collective plunge at the opening due to earnings guidance falling short of expectations, and gradually recovering losses in the afternoon as capital acknowledged the industry's fundamentals; The overall market style briefly shifted, with a smooth lead in the earlier rallySpot ETFs have shifted $BTC valuation logic from sentiment-driven to liquidity-driven by advancing institutional balance sheet allocation. The core current conflict lies in the contest between macro liquidity tightening under Fed tightening expectations and the speed of institutional incremental capital inflows.
Prices are gradually moving away from the early sharp fluctuations triggered by retail investor sentiment and policy news, and are now deeply tied to US Treasury yields, US dollar liquidity, and institutional capital flows. Long-term capital buying from pension funds, sovereign funds, and other long-term funds in the spot market is reshaping the pricing center.
Currently, the priorities driving capital pricing are: macro liquidity supply and demand, net spot ETF inflow scale, and derivatives holdings. When valuation logic shifts to the total capital pool, the high volatility premium naturally declines.
The upward scenario is based on traditional institutional balance sheet expansion and marginal improvement in macro liquidity. If sovereign funds and pension funds accelerate their entry through spot channels, it will drive prices to break through previous high price ranges; This scenario requires close monitoring of the sustainability of net spot inflows; once incremental net inflows are interrupted, the upward logic fails.
The downside scenario stems from rising expectations of Fed monetary tightening, squeezing liquidity in risk assets. When macro risk-free yields remain high, institutions are less willing to allocate positions, and spot buying weakens, triggering a bullish stamp on derivatives; The scenario observes the trend of institutional capital outflows; if macro liquidity floods again, the downward trend ends.
The market debate over whether $BTC reach $200,000 or $500,000 ultimately depends on the shift in liquidity attributes. If it fully transforms into a defensive digital gold asset, the reduction in annualized volatility will flatten the upward momentum; If it retains its highly elastic risk asset attributes, the downside risk during liquidity squeezes is equally significant.
The key variable to watch over the next 7 days is the combination of U.S. Treasury yield trends and net fund flows from spot ETFs.
#财报观察员: Mixed Results, Unlocking Imminent! What is SpaceX's outlook going forward? #黄金重返4200美元, why hasn't BTC risen in tandem? #Circle财报后押注Arc, can USDC see new growth?都在等初请失业金爆个冷门，好让降息预期再飞一会儿。结果呢？19.9万，连续三周卡在20万下方，市场预期是20.5万，四周均值直接干到2022年以来最低位。衰退交易又被按在地上摩擦。
更刺眼的是同一时间出来的生产力数据：二季度生产力初值1.4%，预期才0.6%；单位劳动力成本涨了1.3%，预期2.1%。翻译成大白话：活干多了，单位人工成本反而压下来了。这不是靠裁员裁出来的“假健康”，是效率真上来了。就业没崩，工资通胀压力还小了，美联储哪来的理由快速降息？
所以昨晚美股和加密都挺别扭。长端美债被打了个措手不及，降息交易被迫重新定价。对$BTC 来说，我觉得偏中性——你说经济强，资金没必要出来找比特币；你说不降息，流动性逻辑又弱一截。指望初请数据给降息点火的人，这盆冷水得接稳了。
现在分歧也在这：一边认为就业韧性=软着陆=风险资产没事；另一边觉得美联储又有了拖的资本，市场押注的快速降息要落空，risk资产全得承压。说实话，周五非农才是真正掀桌子的那个。今天追多追空都是赌，赌赢了吃肉，赌输了就是别人嘴里的爆仓案例——一百多万U那种，不是数据害人，是手不听话。
我自己的判断：在非农出来之前，别用初请给降息故事加戏。劳动力市场这么稳，鲍威尔更没理由急着松口。你信软着陆，还是信美联储最后被市场逼着降？我站前者。

$SOL ，$BICO ，$GRVT Can an asset that is increasingly resembling gold still maintain its previous frenzy? This question is actually more important for BTC than price guessing.
In the past, BTC's greatest value came from "uncertainty."
In 2013, many thought it was just an internet experiment; In 2017, large amounts of capital first recognized Bitcoin; After 2020, institutions began entering the market.
Each stage of the rise is essentially a form of cognitive diffusion.
Previously, BTC buyers made money "before others believed in it."
But now the situation has changed.
After ETFs were approved, BTC began to enter the traditional financial system, with more and more institutions treating it as an asset allocation tool. Companies like MicroStrategy put BTC on their balance sheets, funds started allocating BTC exposures, and the market's acceptance of it was completely different from a few years ago.
This is actually BTC's greatest success.
But it was also the biggest change.
Because when an asset gains recognition from more and more people, its logic of price increases will also change.
In the past, BTC's rise was driven by sentiment.
A piece of news.
A policy.
A wave of retail investor FOMO.
All of these could drive prices up rapidly.
But now BTC is increasingly like a macro asset.
It has begun to be influenced by dollar liquidity, U.S. Treasury yields, and institutional capital flows.
This is also why many people develop the illusion:
"Why isn't BTC as crazy as it used to be?"
Because it is undergoing an identity transformation.
In the past, buying BTC in the market was a gamble on the future.
Now, buying BTC in the market means allocating an asset that has already been validated.
The biggest difference between the two is:
The former is priced based on imagination.
The latter is priced based on the scale of capital.
Of course, this does not mean BTC has no room to rise in the future.
On the contrary, if more pensions, institutional funds, and sovereign funds enter in the future, Bitcoin could gain a pool of funds unimaginable in the past.
But the problem is:
When an asset changes from a "rebel" to an "institutional allocation," can it still maintain its early tens of times growth?
This is the biggest contradiction for BTC's future.
Many people are still debating whether BTC can reach $200,000 or $500,000.
But I think the real issue worth paying attention to is:
Will BTC eventually become a new kind of gold, or will it forever retain the high volatility and high growth attributes of the crypto market?
If it becomes digital gold, it will gain longer-lasting vitality, but the pace of increase may slow down.
If it still maintains its risk asset attributes, it will still have significant volatility opportunities.
The biggest change in BTC has never been how much the price has risen up.
Rather, it is shifting from an "experiment challenging traditional finance" to a part traditional finance must face.
Price determines short-term gains, status determines long-term value.
DYOR。 $BTC 📉 $OKB 4H Chart Analysis
OKB is trading at 85.41, down 0.65% on the session after a steady slide from the 87.50 swing high earlier in the week, with price now pushing to new local lows on the current candle.
Price & Moving Averages:
Price at 85.41 is trading below MA5 at 85.76, MA10 at 85.86, and MA20 at 86.20, with all three averages now sloping downward after rolling over from the highs. This stacked alignment, price below MA5 below MA10 below MA20, reflects a clean downtrend that's developed steadily over the last several candles.
Volume:
The current 4H candle shows 4.30k OKB (367.34k USDT) traded. Volume has been fairly steady through the decline, with a few larger red bars appearing on the sharper down candles, pointing to consistent selling pressure rather than a single sharp flush.
MACD:
DIF is at -0.15 and DEA is at -0.04, with MACD at -0.22. Both lines have moved into negative territory and DIF sits below DEA, with the histogram holding a steady run of red bars that have been building since the rollover from the highs. This tracks closely with the sustained nature of the decline rather than a sharp, sudden move.
Key Levels:
87.50 is the swing high and the resistance well above current price. 84.81 marks the swing low and the support just below current price. MA5 at 85.76 and MA10 at 85.86 sit just overhead as the nearest resistance to reclaim, with MA20 at 86.20 as the deeper level above that.
Overall Structure:
OKB remains in a steady downtrend off the 87.50 high, with price, moving averages, and MACD all aligned to the downside. The next thing to watch is whether the 84.81 support holds or gives way to further downside.
#SandiskBeatAndBuyback #CircleArcLaunch #EarningsRealityCheck On August 7th, Sandisk's cyclical stock experienced severe volatility after its earnings report, compounded by hawkish expectations from the Federal Reserve, resulting in significant two-way risks. Market Overview After the earnings release, the stock was the first to plunge in after-hours trading; on August 6th during regular trading hours, it opened at a low of $1163, with a maximum drawdown close to 14%, then rebounded intraday to close at $1258.58, down 6.81%. The day saw a V-shaped movement: the market initially reacted to the earnings negative news with panic selling, then after the panic pressure eased, some funds stepped in to buy, but the stock failed to reclaim key moving averages and closed below the 20-day moving average, indicating the negative news was digested but no reversal occurred. 1. Three driving forces behind today's market movement 🔻 Core decline driver: earnings expectation gap (main short-selling force) 1. Q4 earnings revenue, EPS, and gross margin all exceeded expectations, along with a $14 billion stock buyback plan; however, the midpoint of the Q1 FY2027 revenue guidance was below Wall Street consensus, with a significant sequential slowdown, which was the root cause of the sell-off. The market has fully priced in the high growth of the storage super cycle at its peak; "good performance" alone is insufficient—it must continue to accelerate beyond expectations. The consumer segment revenue declined 32% sequentially, increasing market concerns about demand divergence. 2. Large prior profit-taking: after a huge gain this year and a deep pullback in July, the position was unstable, and the disappointing guidance triggered concentrated profit-taking and exits. ✅ Intraday V-shaped rebound support 1. The $14 billion buyback expectation provided a floor: the buyback plan offered a safety cushion for the stock price, and after the sharp drop, some funds speculated on the buyback and entered the market US spot Bitcoin ETFs pulled in a net $244M on Aug 5, with BlackRock’s IBIT dominating at $197M — a clear sign that institutional risk appetite is rotating back into BTC after the recent shakeout, per SoSoValue. 📊
Spot Ethereum ETFs also saw demand, adding $60.86M net, with BlackRock’s ETHA grabbing $50.34M of that flow. Notably, ETHA is doing the heavy lifting while several other ETH funds remain in the red — concentration in one issuer is a theme worth watching. 🧐
BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager with over $15T in AUM as of Q2 2026, is effectively setting the tone across both BTC and ETH spot products. Its dominance suggests that traditional capital is entering crypto through the most established gateway, not through fringe vehicles. 🏦
The takeaway: flows are positive but narrowly led. Momentum is real, yet sustained inflows beyond top tickers will be the key metric to monitor. 🔍Storage, has it really peaked?
The storage sector is experiencing a "performance sell-off"
SanDisk $SNDK and Western Digital both exceeded earnings expectations, but their shares plunged 9%-15% after hours, with SK Hynix, Samsung, and others also falling sharply.
This strange pattern of "the better the earnings, the harsher the sell-off" has repeatedly appeared recently.
Has it really peaked? The answer is: the fundamentals have not peaked, AI demand remains strong, but market expectations have "peaked."
The reasons are:
1. Expectations are overextended: stock prices have already priced in strong earnings in advance, so the earnings release exhausts the positive news.
2. Concerns about sustainability: high profits are a cyclical peak caused by supply-demand mismatch, and the market worries about slowing growth and overcapacity ahead.
3. The elephant dancing is hard to sustain: doubling growth is difficult to maintain long-term, and valuation logic has been "killed" in phases.
In the short term, the sector is in a phase of emotional clearing and valuation correction, with high risk in the game; but the long-term logic supported by AI remains intact, requiring patience to wait for a new cycle after panic selling pressure ends.

Day nine of reviewing losing trades every day
A little fanboy of Boss Ten!!
Please call me a Chinese trader, although today is another day of eating instant noodles
🚀 Rollercoaster market in play! The first quarterly report after listing is out, with revenue soaring on one side and a $100 billion-level unlocking pressure on the other, making the bulls vs. bears battle extremely intense.
📈✅【Impressive Report Card】
▪️ Q2 total revenue: $7.814 billion💵, a 92% year-over-year surge, significantly exceeding market expectations
▪️ Net loss narrowed to $541 million📉, a 46% reduction year-over-year, profitability continuously improving
▪️ Adjusted EBITDA reached $3.5 billion✨, a 191% year-over-year jump; holding a cash reserve of hundreds of billions, solid financial foundation
▪️ Starlink users growing rapidly, AI business revenue doubled quarter-over-quarter, all three major businesses expanding
⚠️【Concerns Equally Striking】
▪️ Single quarter capital expenditure reached $18.4 billion🔥, with $15.8 billion invested in AI computing power, cash burn far outpacing revenue growth
▪️ An epic unlocking window has opened🔓, the first batch of 911.5 million restricted shares unlocked, corresponding to a market value exceeding $100 billion, unlocking scale far surpassing current circulating shares, early shareholders and employees face risk of profit-taking.
▪️ Despite positive earnings, the stock price fell sharply after hours, benefits realized, funds starting to cautiously avoid risk.
🤔 What’s next?
Positive logic: Starlink continues to generate cash, hundreds of billions in cash reserves support R&D, huge imagination space in AI + aerospace dual tracks, long-term growth story remains intact.
Risk logic: No clear timeline for when massive capital expenditure will taper off, unlocking brings a surge in supply of shares, short-term will amplify stock price volatility, if market absorption is insufficient, selling pressure will quickly suppress valuation.
In the short term, unlocking will intensify stock price volatility, with fierce battles between bulls and bears; in the mid to long term, the stock price trajectory depends mainly on two things: whether the AI business can gradually achieve breakeven, and the progress of Starship commercialization. The growth story is attractive but comes with the risk cost of high valuation.
What do you think? After unlocking, will SpaceX face a sell-off, or will the negative news be fully priced in and reverse?After the founder left, the successor was sued by the estate side
On the evening of August 6, a Delaware court received a complaint. The complaint was filed by the estate administrator of Nathan Allman, founder of tokenization company Ondo Finance, targeting the company's former president, Ian De Bode. The claim was written very plainly: asking the court to determine who legally controls the company and maintains the status quo.
Let's rewind more than two months. On May 26, Ondo posted an announcement on social media announcing the unexpected passing of founder Nathan Allman. In the same announcement, longtime president Ian De Bode was announced as CEO. The wording was dignified: Nathan's talent, humility, and drive shaped Ondo today, and continuing the business he founded was the most meaningful tribute.
Back then, no one thought there was more to it. The industry's reaction was mostly regret, and they also discussed what would happen if the RWA track lost a core driver.
Now the estate presents a different version. They accuse De Bode of illegally gaining control of the company after the founder's death. More subtle, they explain the process themselves: initially they worked with De Bode, later reorganized the board, and then voted to remove him. So now both sides stick to their own versions: one side believes the board resolution is legal and valid, while the other side will most likely claim the restructuring itself is invalid. Who decides is up to the courts.
I think the most striking aspect of this case isn't the dispute itself. Company control lawsuits happen hundreds of times a year in traditional business, which is nothing new. What stands out is who the company is suing this lawsuit.
Ondo is tokenizing U.S. Treasuries, and it's among the leading figures in this round of RWA narratives. Its whole story is about on-chain, transparent, verifiable, and trust-free without relying on any single intermediary. OUSG targets institutions, USDY targets on-chain portfolios, products are deployed across multiple chains, and the circulating market value of tokens is in the billions of dollars. This isn't a small company; control hangs in the balance, and it's not just a few board members' titles that matter.
Now, the decision of who manages this company itself is up to a court in Delaware.
The gap in between is worth pondering. What can be proven on-chain is actually very limited. It can prove that a transfer has occurred, or how many assets an address holds, but it cannot prove whether the person behind the address is still alive, nor can it prove who they left their authority to. Equity, board seats, wills, inheritance—all these are off-chain, all operated by a set of centuries-old rules.
That same week, Wells Fargo was preparing to launch corporate tokenized deposits in the fall, Japan's JPYC secured a new round of financing, preparing to pay freight for 2,300 truck drivers. The entire industry is moving toward traditional financial territory. Only after moving there do they realize that their estate law, company law, and court jurisdiction are all unavoidable.
So I want to ask: a company that puts trust into its code ultimately relies on the courts to determine who is the boss. What have we actually put onto the chain over the years?#Circle财报后押注Arc, can USDC experience new growth?
Review the losing orders daily on the ninth day
Boss Shi's little fanboy!!
Please call me the Chinese server trader, even though today is also a day of instant noodles
🔔 With the Q2 earnings report, Circle delivered a contradictory answer: USDC's 📊 on-chain trading volume reached $14.8 trillion, a year-on-year surge of 151%, but revenue heavily depends on reserve interest, and growth bottlenecks are gradually emerging during the rate-cutting cycle.
Facing the ceiling, Circle is betting all its assets on its self-developed public chain Arc. The next round of USDC's growth will hinge on success or failure.
✅ The financial report reveals two major realities:
▪️USDC circulating supply reached $73.3 billion 💵, a year-on-year increase of 19%, with institutional transfer activity rising significantly and capital turnover rates continuing to rise.
▪️ Risk points: Over 90% of revenue comes from reserve interest 💸. Once the Fed enters a rate-cutting cycle, profits will be directly under pressure, making the single income structure highly risky.
Arc is Circle's trump card ⚙️ to break through, with its mainnet expected to launch on September 16. Unlike ordinary public chains, Arc is USDC's native infrastructure, directly using USDC to pay gas fees, focusing on second-level settlement, on-chain FX FX engine, and enterprise cross-border payment network CPN.
Its goal is no longer just to issue stablecoins, but to build an on-chain financial operating system that integrates cross-border settlement, tokenized assets, and AI-agent payments all on the network, earning network fees and breaking the heavy dependence on interest income.
🤔 But the challenges are equally visible ⚠️
1. Arc has not yet officially launched, all business remains at the testnet stage, and the actual implementation results for institutional clients have yet to be verified;
2. Competition in the stablecoin sector is intensifying, with peers continuously capturing market share, causing USDC's market share to decline slightly;
3. Traditional SWIFT and banking systems will not easily give up the cross-border payment market; compliance and ecosystem building will take a long time.
📌 What is the outlook for the market?
If the Arc mainnet successfully launches and enterprise and RWA tokenization businesses are implemented on a large scale, USDC will upgrade from a "trading tool" to a global settlement foundation, unlocking huge growth potential. But if the ecosystem's cold start falls short of expectations, Circle's transformation story will be questionable.
Do you think Arc can truly take USDC to the forefront, or is it just another conceptual narrative? Share your thoughts in the comments!Nonfarm Payrolls Major Test Approaching, US Stock Market Outlook
At 20:30 Beijing time tomorrow night, the nonfarm payrolls data will be released, marking a critical choice for the US stock market.
At 20:30 this Friday night, the July nonfarm employment report will be published. This is the most important employment data following the Federal Reserve's July meeting and will directly rewrite the interest rate expectations for September. All assets including US stocks, US bonds, and crypto will be affected.
Previously, the ADP small nonfarm data was significantly below expectations, which has already served as a warning to the market, with the market now betting on a gradual cooling of employment.
Three data scenarios and corresponding US stock market trends
🔹Scenario 1: Nonfarm payrolls significantly exceed expectations, wages rise simultaneously
Hot employment will delay rate cut expectations, pushing US bond yields higher. High-valuation AI tech and memory sectors will face the most pressure; growth stocks like MU and SNDK are prone to selling pressure; Dow Jones value blue chips will be relatively resilient, leading to a differentiated market.
🔹Scenario 2: Nonfarm payrolls significantly weaken, unemployment rate rises
The market will strengthen rate cut expectations, US bond yields will decline, benefiting tech growth stocks. Memory and AI hardware may see a recovery rebound. However, beware of a risk: if data is too poor, it may trigger market concerns about an economic recession, causing a short-term broad sell-off.
🔹Scenario 3: Data basically matches expectations
Employment cools moderately, neither hot nor cold. The US stock market continues its current split pattern, with the Dow Jones relatively strong and the Nasdaq fluctuating at high levels. The market returns to earnings report logic, with continued sector rotation internally.
Putting aside nonfarm payrolls, the upcoming US stock market outlook:
1. The memory sector is currently in a phase of intense volatility after earnings disconfirmation. SNDK has formed a deep V reversal, but the earnings-driven downward revision issue has not completely disappeared. The key focus is whether MU can hold its critical support; holding it represents sectoral differentiated recovery; if it breaks down effectively, this memory rally will enter a mid-term valuation digestion phase. Do not mistake an oversold rebound for a new major uptrend.
2. Market structural differentiation will continue. Stocks with earnings guidance exceeding expectations will continue to enjoy premiums; even companies with high profits but conservative shareholder returns and future guidance will continue to be abandoned by capital. The broad rally is over, making stock picking more difficult.
3. Risks cannot be ignored; $SPCX faces huge unlocking pressure, which will occasionally disturb the market and amplify intraday spikes.

Russell 2000 breaking new highs
In 2016 and 2020, both conditions were met, leading to explosive market cap growth
Last year, ISM stayed below 50 all year, so the conditions were never met

A major bull market could start in the coming months.
Don't fall before dawn, hold your Bitcoin tight. ⛏️ Mining for a year isn't enough to pay interest! This mining company sold 1,619 BTC at a loss
Late at night, mining machines roared, but the BTC on hand was nearly depleted.
According to the financial report, mining company Cipher Digital sold 1,619 BTC last quarter, cashing out about $123.4 million, while also confirming a $47.7 million loss. This is not taking profits at high levels, but selling coins to fill the gap.
What's even more heartbreaking is that quarterly mining revenue is only $24.8 million, but interest expenses are as high as $66.7 million—for every $1 earned, $2.7 in interest is paid. As of the end of June, the company had only 646 BTC left, with a quarterly net loss of $23.5 million.
---
📌 Many brothers think miners are faith-driven people who "only dig, not sell," but the reality is:
Mining is a high-leverage, asset-heavy business—mining machines rely on financing, and electricity bills are settled monthly. When the coin price moves sideways, cash flow collapses first. Miners selling coins isn't necessarily bearish; more often, it's just to survive.
---
🔍 Next, keep a close eye on a core indicator:
The difference between the monthly coin sales volume and coin production volume of mining companies
· Selling > mining → Continuous selling pressure remains
· Only by selling < and mining → can the supply side truly breathe a sigh of relief
Miners selling coins is a short-term selling pressure, and in the long run, it's an industry clearance. After high-cost players are eliminated, the remaining mining companies may be healthier.
---
💭 Here's the question:
If even miners who understand BTC's costs best are selling at a loss, do you think this is a red flag, or the final reshuffle before a new major market rally?
🤔 If it were you, would you buy the dip when miners surrender?
Share your reasons in the comments, let's have a clash.
#BTC #矿工 #加密市场 #抄底还是逃顶 #DYORRecently, there has been a disconnected scene among major global asset classes: US stocks and gold have risen consecutively, crude oil has pulled back, but Bitcoin has remained motionless, completely detached from external market trends. After the Fed paused rate hikes, the stock market quickly completed a recovery in sentiment, the index hit a new stage high, and economic outlook data also improved. Although the macro environment clearly favors risk assets, Bitcoin has not followed the pricing and has maintained narrow fluctuations. The incident of 594 BTC stolen from a Coldcard hardware wallet vulnerability further illustrates the current state of the market. The liquidity of dormant old coins has reached 200 times its usual volume, prompting a large number of long-term holders to urgently relocate their assets. But on-chain data shows that most of these are just wallet swaps, not sold off for cash. Such a huge safety black swan saw almost no fluctuations in the spot market, with no panic sell-offs or bottom-fishing funds, directly reflecting the extreme lack of market liquidity. The current bottom isn't the result of a crash and liquidation—it's the result of 'boredom.' The 30-day volatility has fallen back to the low of this cycle, reaching the historical bottom range, but it is still some distance from the ultimate bottom of previous bear markets. Institutional funds are seeing net outflows overall, and corporate Bitcoin buybacks cannot withstand the selling pressure from fund redemptions. Market sentiment shifted from panic to defensive lying flat, with no severe concentrated liquidation. The options market is equally interesting, with both long and short options volatility being suppressed very low. Everyone talks about various risks, but actual capital is unwilling to pay for big rises and falls, and no one actively bets on the direction. My emotions fluctuated back and forth in the small waves, but nothing🤗 Extra: The Clear Act Republican insiders turn against it, Moran sides with banks to oppose the Clear Act.
🇺🇸 Republican Senator Jerry Moran suddenly changed his stance, announcing he will vote against the Clear Act, citing banks' concerns that stablecoins will drain deposits and compliance costs are too high.
Now it’s getting lively — Democrats were already collectively opposing due to the Trump family ethics rules issue, and now the Republican camp itself is starting to fracture. With Moran switching sides, Thune’s already insufficient 60 votes are even more precarious.
Impact on cryptocurrency: A delay is positive, not a positive turning negative.
Short term: $BTC continues to fluctuate between 61,000-64,000, $ETH/$SOL are weaker, altcoin memes suffer the most, but don’t believe the zero-out theory; the market has priced in that it won’t pass by August.
Mid term: The GENIUS stablecoin law has been signed, stablecoins now have legal backing, the Clear Act only fills the gap on whether $BTC/$ETH are commodities or securities. If it fails = institutions will come slower, not a bull market cancellation.
Long term: Banks lobbying Moran to flip sides confirms that stablecoins really are competing for deposits, crypto payment attributes are recognized by traditional finance, $BTC’s commodity status is solidified, direction unchanged just slower pace.
Sigh: comrades 😔 let’s keep pretending to sleep 😌.The loss pressure from US-listed mining companies' earnings reports is transmitting to the crypto market, suppressing risk appetite, with the market stuck between mainline selling pressure and localized rebounds.
CleanSpark's net loss of $240 million and MARA's net loss of $611 million have heightened concerns about cost compression, while $PLUME rose 16% against the trend within 24 hours.
The capital outflow from the US mining sector releases liquidity concerns about supply-side selling, with cross-market funds rapidly competing between mainline assets and small-cap coins.
The cost pressure on the US side directly increases the consideration of Bitcoin's supply-side absorption; if mainline assets cannot digest the selling pressure, the difficulty for small-cap coins to maintain liquidity alone is rising accordingly.
For the market to establish an upward continuation, Bitcoin needs to quickly reclaim key moving averages accompanied by increased volume, thereby driving the overall repair of risk appetite.
If the selling pressure continues to transmit and PLUME fails to hold the $0.01 support level, short-term outflows will confirm the failure of this rebound.
Whether the selling pressure from the US mining sector will spread to the overall US stock assets is the main point of contention to break the current cross-market stalemate.
The most important variable to watch in the next 24 hours is whether Bitcoin can reclaim key moving averages with volume.
#意大利大行减IBIT普通股94%，加仓质押ETH #闪迪财报双超预期，新增140亿美元回购授权 #MSTR再卖1638枚比特币，规模腰斩The latest financial report shows that SanDisk's revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2026 reached $8.97 billion, a year-over-year increase of 372% and a quarter-over-quarter increase of 51%, exceeding the market expectation of $8.394 billion; non-GAAP diluted earnings per share were $39.25, and the gross margin rose to 84.6%. From the business structure perspective, data centers became the most prominent growth engine, with quarterly revenue of $2.98 billion, up 1298% year-over-year and 103% quarter-over-quarter; edge computing business revenue was $5.43 billion, up 392% year-over-year. In contrast, consumer business revenue was $556 million, down 5% year-over-year and 32% quarter-over-quarter, adding a slight cool tone to the otherwise impressive report.
What truly makes investors hesitate is the company's outlook for the next fiscal quarter. SanDisk expects revenue for the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 to be between $10.3 billion and $10.8 billion, with a midpoint of about $10.55 billion, below analysts' expectations of $11.16 billion; non-GAAP diluted earnings per share are expected to be between $44 and $46, with a midpoint of $45, also slightly below market expectations. In other words, the fourth quarter was like a fireworks show, but the guidance did not continue to ignite the market's already elevated imagination. Some institutions subsequently lowered their target prices, reflecting short-term valuation digestion pressure.
However, SanDisk has not failed to present a "long-term story." The company's board approved a new $14 billion stock repurchase plan, bringing the total remaining repurchase authorization to $15.5 billion. At the same time, the company repeatedly emphasized the significance of new long-term commercial agreements: it has currently signed related long-term agreements with eight data center and edge computing customers, with an expected minimum revenue scale of $93.9 billion, and has already locked in over half of the capacity for fiscal year 2027 and about two-thirds of the capacity for fiscal year 2028 in advance. Management hopes to use this to change the NAND industry's past short-cycle model of quarterly pricing and quarterly supply, giving the business more than four years of demand visibility.
From the industry background perspective, the rapid advancement of AI inference and intelligent AI agents is pushing storage from a "supporting role" to a core part of infrastructure. SanDisk's management stated that storage demand growth has clearly exceeded the company's supply capacity, and supply and demand remain tight; some industry views also believe that memory is one of the main bottlenecks in the AI boom, with demand expansion far outpacing supply growth. But on the other hand, it must also be seen that the consumer electronics side's price tolerance is declining, and the weakness in consumer business reminds the market that no matter how strong AI data center demand is, it cannot completely erase the natural fluctuations of a cyclical industry.
Therefore, the main factors affecting SanDisk's recent performance are not a single economic data point or sudden global event, but the combined effect of the financial report structure, next fiscal quarter guidance, AI storage demand, long-term agreement credibility, and storage price cycles. The better-than-expected performance indicates the company's current strong profitability, while the guidance below high expectations shows that the market had already priced in a lot of optimism. The so-called "buy the rumor, sell the fact" phenomenon is quite typical after this financial report.
In terms of investment, short-term investors should not only focus on chasing the sentiment of single-quarter high growth but should pay more attention to whether the actual delivery in the next fiscal quarter approaches the upper end of guidance, whether the gross margin can be maintained at a high level, and whether the consumer business continues to be under pressure. Mid- to long-term investors can take the execution of NBM long-term agreements as a core observation point: if the long-term contracts are fulfilled smoothly, SanDisk's valuation logic may shift from a traditional cyclical stock to a storage platform with higher cash flow visibility; if prices peak or demand slows, valuation may still face recalibration. Overall, it is suitable to observe in batches and control positions, and it is not advisable to bet everything when expectations fluctuate dramatically #财报观察员：业绩喜忧参半，解禁将至！SpaceX后续怎么看？
SpaceX's first earnings report as a public company has landed, showing a typical mixed picture.
Starlink performs solidly as a cash business, AI business revenue is growing rapidly, and overall revenue and loss reduction both beat market expectations. However, capital expenditure in the AI computing power segment remains high, with no slowdown in the burn rate, causing market divergence on the return cycle of investments. Following this, a massive unlocking of shares worth hundreds of billions is coming, becoming the biggest short-term variable.
Bullish view: The fundamental growth logic holds. Starlink provides stable cash flow, high AI investment is a necessary cost for expanding the sector, and the unlocking selling pressure has already been priced in by the market.
Bearish view: Even if the business improves, the huge unlocking of chips will bring a large increase in supply. Early investors have very low holding costs and strong cash-out intentions, and continuous high capital expenditure will keep consuming cash flow.
My view is that the fundamentals are good, but that does not mean you can directly bet on a reversal.
The earnings report only proves the company's growth ability but cannot offset the supply shock caused by the unlocking.
Unlocking does not necessarily mean a crash, but it will clearly suppress rebound elasticity. Going forward, the focus should be on the actual scale of share reduction and the market's capacity to absorb it; blind bottom-fishing is not advisable.
Also, do not treat SPCX as a BTC indicator; it more represents the risk appetite of global AI growth stocks and cannot determine the overall direction of crypto assets.
If SpaceX withstands the unlocking pressure and stabilizes, it will boost sentiment for AI narrative tokens; if the stock price continues to weaken, risk appetite will contract, and the crypto market will also be dragged down by sentiment. However, the major market trend is still dominated by US Treasury yields. $SPCX
SpaceX's performance today must have surprised many people
But it's clear the market is following the pre-report approach: as a clear event, the market has already discovered prices in advance, and the short-term trading point in the earnings report has also experienced huge ups and downs
As a long-term holder, I shouldn't pay too much attention to short-term fluctuations, but being in the market, the recent market battles have been indeed exciting, so I can't help but keep an eye on them
Of course, as always, the pressure to unlock is real, and there will be several more releases in the coming months. There's no need to think today is the turning point for the bulls' victory; it's more appropriate to treat these months as opportunities to build positions#财报观察员：业绩喜忧参半，解禁将至！SpaceX后续怎么看？
A very clear signal is emerging this earnings season: the market is no longer satisfied with "earnings beating expectations" but has started to trade on "whether the next earnings can continue to beat expectations."
AMD and SanDisk delivered solid results, but their stock performance remains cautious—not because of poor earnings, but because high valuations have already priced in market expectations. If AI demand, corporate capital expenditures, or profit guidance slow down even slightly in the future, high valuations will face re-pricing.
Palantir follows a different logic. The market is willing to continue giving a premium, not just because of high revenue growth, but because management has raised the full-year guidance again, convincing investors that the growth story is far from over. Therefore, what truly drives the stock price up is not the profits already realized, but the further opening of future profit potential.
SpaceX is similar. The first earnings report proved that the core business remains highly competitive; revenue growth and narrowing losses are positive signals. However, with continued increases in AI-related capital expenditures and the upcoming lock-up expiration window, the short-term market is more likely to focus on capital supply and unlocking pressure rather than fundamentals themselves. As long as new selling pressure exists, capital sentiment tends to suppress stock price performance.
Circle is betting on the Arc mainnet, hoping to upgrade USDC from a transactional stablecoin to institutional financial infrastructure. If Arc can truly drive stablecoin payments, RWA, and on-chain settlement to fruition, then what the market will trade in the future is not how much Circle earned this quarter, but how much USDC can grow over the next few years.
For the capital markets, the past focus was on "whether earnings beat expectations," but now the emphasis is on "whether growth can continue to be revised upward."
As liquidity tightens and valuations are generally high, capital will pay more attention to the growth potential of companies over the next 12 to 24 months rather than historical data already realized. Earnings reports provide the answers; guidance determines valuation; profits set the floor, expectations set the ceiling.
This logic also applies to the crypto market. Whether it is the BTC ecosystem, AI sector, RWA, or stablecoins, the assets that can continuously attract capital in the future are not necessarily the fastest-growing projects now, but those that can consistently deliver growth and continuously raise market expectations.

但做我们这行的都知道，没有永不后撤的阵地。相比7月1日到5日那次一口气倾泻3,588枚BTC的狂暴火力，在长达四周的停火潜伏后，这次的割肉撤退规模缩减了超过一半。阵地深处，842,138枚BTC的巨型弹药库依然保持着沉重的伪装。在8月2日至3日之间，链上哨所侦测到一笔299.843枚BTC的隐蔽转移，那是正在暗夜中移动的战术小队，等待下周的正式通报。
在亏损刻度上强行切断部分仓位，纯粹是为了战术后勤的延续——这笔1.047亿美元的资金将作为硬性补给，用于死守12%固定优先股股息的防线，并回购自家后方防区。在他们的行动手册里，重新扣动买入扳机的条件极其残酷且明确：只有当优先股的价格修复至接近发行价（目前仍有约10%的折价贴水）时，重新装填的指令才会下达。
美股联动标的 $XMSFT 的热感轨迹在瞄准镜边缘不断扰动，科技巨头的资金气流与加密主阵地的干热侧风相互绞杀。高层级的博弈从来不是靠盲目扫射来赢取的，盈亏比不够的时候，扣动扳机就是自杀。
枪栓早已上膛，呼吸降至最低频。在贴水缺口尚未抹平、侧风方向彻底锁定之前，谁先在阵地上露出破绽，谁就是下一个躺在十字准星里的靶心。
#MSTRSells1638BTC The crypto market is gradually shifting from valuing narratives to valuing execution.
That's why many tokens are still struggling to reclaim their previous highs, while a small group of projects continues setting new milestones.
Several powerful catalysts are now developing at the same time. Spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs continue expanding institutional access, major financial firms are accelerating the tokenization of real-world assets, stablecoins are becoming increasingly important for global payments, and AI is creating new demand for blockchain infrastructure.
Against this backdrop, investors are prioritizing ecosystems capable of delivering real utility rather than relying on future expectations alone.
Projects with the strongest long-term positioning include:
$BTC • $ETH • $SOL • $BNB • $LINK • $ONDO • $AAVE • $XRP
These ecosystems continue benefiting from institutional adoption, expanding DeFi activity, tokenization, and stronger blockchain infrastructure.
Among the next wave of growth opportunities, investors are closely watching:
$SUI • $TAO • $PENDLE • $ENA • $WLD • $SEI • $HUMA • $KAITO
If AI adoption accelerates, RWA expands, and on-chain financial products continue gaining traction, these projects could become some of the biggest beneficiaries.
Meanwhile, higher-risk assets such as:
$DOGE • $PEPE • $BONK • $WIF • $SHIB • $FLOKI • $BRETT • $MEME
still have the potential to deliver explosive returns, but sustaining leadership will require far more than speculation. Community strength, liquidity, and ecosystem growth will matter more than ever.
This cycle is unlikely to produce hundreds of winners like previous bull markets. Instead, it may reward investors who identify long-term structural trends before they become the market consensus. By the time everyone agrees on the opportunity, the biggest gains are often already behind.

$BTC $ETH $SOL Two companies delivered the best earnings reports in history.
One plunged after hours then partially recovered, the other plunged about 10% after hours.
The only difference: one is making money, the other is burning cash.
Starting today, AI stocks have only two fates: those that can prove profits, and those that cannot.
What happened in the US stock market last night?
SanDisk's earnings exploded, storage cycle re-priced by AI
Q4 revenue was $8.97 billion, about 8% above expectations, up 372% year-over-year; adjusted EPS $39.25, about 14% above expectations; Non-GAAP gross margin 84.6%.
Data center business revenue grew about 103% quarter-over-quarter (Edge business up 48% QoQ), board approved a new $14 billion buyback plan, total remaining buyback capacity rose to $15.5 billion. After-hours it plunged about 8% then partially recovered, overall still weak.
Q1 2027 guidance $10.3–10.8 billion, slightly below some expectations of $11.1 billion; conservative guidance was the main reason for the sell-off. But this profit margin level is significantly higher than Nvidia’s; storage is shifting from a cyclical stock to a structural growth stock.
SpaceX’s first public earnings beat expectations, but stock plunged 13%
Revenue $7.8 billion, about 15% above expectations, up 92% YoY, Starlink users 12 million. Adjusted EBITDA $3.5 billion, far exceeding institutional expectations, EBITDA margin about 45%.
But capital expenditures surged to $18.4 billion in one quarter, almost entirely spent on AI infrastructure. Greater pressure comes from today’s lock-up expiration, with up to about 20% of related shares unlocking and flooding the market. Raymond James maintains a strong buy rating and $800 target price, but short-term selling pressure is unavoidable.
The real composition of Microsoft’s AI revenue revealed
According to Bloomberg, in Microsoft’s fiscal year ending June, OpenAI contributed $24.1 billion in revenue, accounting for about 70% of Microsoft’s actual AI revenue. This figure reveals for the first time the true depth of the relationship between Microsoft’s AI growth and infrastructure investment.
Major reshuffle in Google’s AI team
Google AI business undergoes major personnel restructuring. Demis Hassabis shifts roles to focus more on strategy and scientific research; co-founder level Jeff Dean will leave to start an independent AI company, Discovery Loop. CTO Koray Kavukcuoglu promoted to Senior Vice President of DeepMind. Sundar Pichai personally drives this integration, further centralizing AI R&D power.
CoreWeave and Solidigm sign multiple enterprise SSD agreements
CoreWeave and Solidigm signed multi-year cooperation agreements to ensure CoreWeave’s large AI workloads have enterprise-grade SSD storage supply, strengthening infrastructure coverage from GPU expansion to storage, memory, and networking. The AI computing arms race is expanding from GPUs to storage.
US job openings in June fall to near recent lows
JOLTS data shows June job openings fell to about 7.36 million, below expectations, labor market continues cooling, job openings to unemployment ratio dropped to near recent lows. Nonfarm payroll data will be the real turning point this week.
Shopify Q2 revenue beats expectations, growth engine still running
Shopify Q2 revenue $3.58 billion, beating expectations, GMV reached $115.6 billion, above expectations, up about 34% YoY. MRR reached $221 million, showing no signs of slowing growth.
Recent moves by Leopold Aschenbrenner’s fund
According to Bloomberg and others, Situational Awareness fund founded by former OpenAI researcher Leopold Aschenbrenner, after a significant drawdown, recently made new capital moves (around several hundred million dollars), continuing to focus on AI.
Last night’s theme was clear: companies making money from AI and companies spending money on AI, the market has already started to differentiate.
SanDisk’s 84.6% gross margin was hit after hours but fundamentals remain very strong; SpaceX burned $18.4 billion and plunged after hours.
The line between profit and expenditure in the AI story is the lifeline for all AI stocks going forward. SanDisk's Q4 revenue surged 372%, with explosive results, but its stock price fell.
The market no longer applauds the "good past performances"; it is betting on a bigger game.
On August 6, SanDisk delivered a report card that would make any listed company proud:
Revenue was $8.96 billion, a year-on-year surge of 372%; Gross margin was 84.6%; Adjusted earnings per share were $39.25, exceeding expectations by 10%; The board approved a $14 billion stock buyback plan. All figures exceeded expectations.
And then? After hours, the stock price once dropped 8%.
With earnings exploding like this and still falling, is the market crazy? No.
It is betting on a key vote with its feet: Is SanDisk a cyclical stock or a growth stock?
The bear market's logic is clear: storage is a typical strong cyclical industry, with shortages, price hikes, capacity expansion, oversupply, and collapses.
SanDisk rose 858% in 2025 and 442% this year, showing huge profits.
Meta is selling off idle computing power, and the market is beginning to worry that AI capital spending may peak. When the cycle peaks, let's kill valuations first.
The bulls' logic is equally strong: AI data center demand is structural growth, not cyclical fluctuations.
SanDisk's data center business was $1.47 billion last quarter, a surge of 233% quarter-on-quarter and 645% year-on-year.
The company has locked in multiple multi-year supply agreements, totaling over $42 billion.
SK Hynix's CEO personally said: 2027 will be the tightest year in storage history.
TrendForce predicts that by 2026, the NAND Flash market will face a 4% to 5% supply gap, with shortages likely to continue at least until the first half of 2027.
A company with 372% revenue growth, 84.6% gross margin, and zero debt on paper, if it is a growth stock, a 6.5x PE is not a mistaken killing but a massacre.
If it's a cyclical stock, the valuation is reasonable, because at the peak of the cycle, it should be undervalued, and the next stage will be a loss.
The market is repricing SanDisk—not paying for the past, but betting on the expectation of a "cycle peak."
Prediction:
The earnings report can no longer support short-term sentiment. SanDisk's performance is solid enough, but the market's expectations for "future expectations" are much stricter than those for "past performance."
This quarter's revenue guidance is $10.3-10.8 billion, at the lower end of market expectations. For already highly priced AI storage deals, "past exceeding expectations" cannot offset "slightly below expectations in the future."
The cyclical narrative of storage stocks will not disappear in the short term.
Changxin Technology's market value surpassed 4 trillion yuan in its July IPO, and the rise of domestic Chinese storage and low-cost AI models like Kimi K3 have raised concerns about slowing demand for high-end computing power. These factors will continue to disrupt market sentiment.
SanDisk plunged 47% in July alone, and high volatility is likely to persist.
The long-term logic hasn't changed; what has changed is the pricing of emotions.
Of the 24 Wall Street analysts, 21 maintain a "Buy" rating, with an average target price of about $2,368.
SanDisk's long-term story still stands: as long as AI inference demand continues to surge, enterprise SSD production continues to expand, and the NAND supply gap continues to widen.
But the market's pricing has shifted from "extreme optimism" to "extreme pessimism," with no transition in between.
This is the essence of emotion-driven markets.$BTC 特朗普签署行政令！多晶硅进口新规落地，全球通胀与产业链迎来新变量
币界网消息：特朗普于2026年8月6日签署行政令，援引《1962年贸易扩展法》第232条，针对进口多晶硅及其上下游衍生产品设立最低进口限价，并加征额外关税，目标扶持美国本土多晶硅、半导体、太阳能完整供应链。
政策核心细则
1、最低进口价格标准
- 多晶硅：21美元/公斤
- 多晶硅锭、硅晶圆：100美元/公斤
- 太阳能电池：0.22美元/瓦
- 太阳能组件：0.38美元/瓦
2、关税安排：清单内多晶硅锭及衍生产品加征15%从价关税
3、生效时间：2026年12月4日正式实施，留有缓冲周期
宏观传导逻辑（重点，加密交易者重点参考）
1、推升制造业成本，通胀预期抬头
多晶硅是光伏、半导体上游核心原材料。进口限价+关税双重约束，会抬高美国光伏、芯片制造成本。成本最终向下游传导，加剧商品涨价压力。
一旦通胀预期再度升温，市场押注美联储降息的节奏将会放缓，甚至重启加息讨论，利空股票、加密等高风险资产。
2、全球供应链加速割裂
政策本质是贸易保护，推动新能源、半导体产业链向美国本土回流。全球贸易壁垒持续增多，叠加近期霍尔木兹海峡航运管控草案等消息，宏观不确定性持续上行，资金避险意愿提升。
3、板块结构性分化
美股本土光伏、硅材料企业短期存在情绪利好；依赖进口原材料的中下游制造企业承压。
映射到加密市场：风险偏好走弱环境下，资金优先拥抱黄金等避险资产；BTC、山寨等高弹性币种缺乏增量资金支撑。
交易层面提醒
距离正式落地还有4个月缓冲期，短期属于预期炒作，不会立刻冲击市场。
后续两大跟踪重点：
①市场是否开始计价“成本抬升→通胀反弹”这条主线；
②全球其他经济体是否出台对应反制贸易政策，进一步放大波动。
⚠️风险提示：宏观政策传导链条较长，行情存在预期提前消化、落地兑现回落可能性，切勿单一方向重仓博弈。
$BTC $XAU #宏观资讯 #美联储 #贸易政策$ETH $XRP The market continues to fluctuate, and many regular investors are filled with questions: Where exactly is BTC in the bear market right now? Is the current bottoming out a rare opportunity to position your position, or a trap for a continued decline? By combining the Fear and Greed Index, spot trading volume, AHR999 valuation, on-chain chip data, and historical bull-bear cycles, we provide data filling to break down the current market situation and provide a clear reference for ordinary regular investors. I. Four Core Observation Dimensions for Determining the Bear Market's Location (Data Filling Version) 1. Market sentiment heat: Entering a no-attention emotional peak Currently, the Fear and Greed Index has long remained below 20 (the extreme fear range). During bull markets, the index often surges to the 75-95 greedy range; Looking back at historical bear bottoms, in 2022, the Fear and Greed Index of the bottom hit a low of 10. Discussions about BTC in communities, social circles, and self-media have cooled significantly, while get-rich-quick stories and market hotspots have disappeared. On-chain data: Small retail addresses holding up to 10 BTC have seen net outflows for several consecutive months, with many small addresses going dormant, and the public deliberately avoiding crypto asset topics. In a bull market, the buzz is loud, while the bottom of a bear market is often accompanied by numbness and silence—this is a very typical signal at the end of the bear market. 2. Trading volume and market performance: Shrinking volume and sideways movement become the main theme. BTC spot daily trading volume shrank by 55%-65% compared to the bull market peak. There are few major surges and drops, mostly fluctuating within a narrow range of around ±8%. Short-term traders find it difficult to earn swing profits, speculative funds keep withdrawing, and the market is still in turmoilMining for a year isn't enough to cover the interest! This mining company is selling 1,619 BTC at a loss
Late at night, the mining rigs are still roaring, but the Bitcoin on the books is almost sold out.
According to financial report data, mining company Cipher Digital sold 1,619 BTC last quarter, cashing out about $123.4 million, while confirming a loss of $47.7 million. This is not about making enough profit to exit, but selling coins at a loss to fill the gap.
More strikingly, quarterly mining revenue was only $24.8 million, but interest expenses reached as high as $66.7 million, meaning for every $1 earned, about $2.7 in interest must be paid. As of the end of June, the company only had 646 BTC left, with a net quarterly loss of $23.5 million.
Many people think miners are "only mining and not selling" believers, but in reality, mining is a high-leverage, heavy-asset business: mining rigs rely on financing, electricity bills are settled monthly, and if the coin price stagnates, cash flow may break first. Miners selling coins doesn't necessarily mean they are bearish on BTC; more often, it's just to survive.
Next, focus on one key indicator: **the difference between the monthly amount of coins sold by mining companies and the amount mined.** If more is sold than mined, continuous selling pressure remains; only when the difference turns positive again can the supply side truly breathe a sigh of relief.
Miners selling coins is short-term selling pressure and long-term industry clearing. After high-cost players are eliminated, the remaining companies may be healthier.
But here’s the question: if even miners who know BTC costs best are selling at a loss, do you think this is a danger signal or the "final reshuffle" before a new big market rally? If it were you, would you bottom-fish when miners surrender? Share your reasons in the comments.#Circle财报后押注Arc, can USDC experience new growth?
Circle's latest earnings report sends a clear signal: USDC has entered a "stock competition" phase, while Arc is tasked with opening a second growth curve.
From the financial report, revenue and adjusted EBITDA continued to grow, but overall performance was slightly below market expectations. More noteworthy is that USDC's average circulating supply grew 25% year-on-year, while quarter-end circulation fell by about 4.8% quarter-on-quarter, indicating that although stablecoin demand is still expanding, growth has begun to slow, and the era of relying solely on trading markets to drive USDC expansion is over.
What truly deserves market attention is Circle's Arc network.
If USDC has mainly served as a medium of exchange in the past, Arc aims to play the role of institutional financial infrastructure, connecting stablecoin payments, real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, cross-border settlements, and traditional financial institutions to the same network.
Heavyweight institutions like BlackRock, DTCC, Visa, and Mastercard joining as founding validators means Arc is not targeting the retail market, but rather institutional-level application scenarios. Once more assets are issued, traded, and settled on-chain in the future, USDC, as the underlying settlement asset, is expected to see further increases in usage frequency and capital accumulation.
However, whether Arc can truly become USDC's new growth engine still depends on three key indicators: the developer ecosystem after the public mainnet launches, the actual scale of institutional usage, and whether on-chain stablecoin settlement volume can continue to grow. If there is only cooperation news but no real business implementation, market enthusiasm may be difficult to sustain long-term.
Overall, Circle's financial report seems more like "solid performance but lacking surprises." What will truly affect future valuations will not be this quarter's profits, but whether Arc can successfully open up new applications for stablecoins. For the entire crypto market, if Arc accelerates the development of RWA, institutional payments, and on-chain financial infrastructure, it is not only expected to increase USDC's market share but could also become a major catalyst for the next wave of institutional capital entering the crypto ecosystem.
#Circle #USDC #Arc #RWA #Stablecoin #CryptoMarketUS stocks are celebrating, $BTC are 😴 napping
The Russell 2000 just hit a record closing high. The ISM Manufacturing PMI reached 55.6, the highest since May 2022
In 2016, these two signals appeared simultaneously, marking the start of BTC's first bull market. In 2020, it appeared again, with the total crypto market cap rising from 400 billion to 2.5 trillion. No more in 2025—ISM has remained below 50
Now the two of them are back
But interestingly—US stocks are fully risk-on, with BTC up only 0.7% and $ETH up 0.4%. Even though the signal was clear, the crypto market was still pretending to be asleep
Matt from MoonLambo put it bluntly—a PMI breaking above 55 usually leads the crypto market by 3 to 6 months. BTC is now trading sideways near 64,000, which is not a bear market but an accumulation period
To put it plainly, the laws of history are already clear. Russell is rising, ISM is rising, copper is rising, and funds are moving outside the risk curve. Crypto is usually the last to react, because it sits at the far end of the risk curve
My judgment: the signal has returned, but the market hasn't reacted yet. By the time it reacts, it may already be too late
In terms of trading, I keep an eye on Russell and ISM. If these two don't turn back, I'm not panicking. I'll wait until the crypto market wakes up on its own伊朗议会审议霍尔木兹海峡通航管控法案草案，地缘风险再度升温
星球日报
伊朗议会正在审议一项法案草案，旨在强化霍尔木兹海峡与波斯湾通航规则管控。
草案核心条款：
1、禁止与美国、以色列以及其他敌对国家相关联船只通行海峡；
2、限制和以色列相关军民货物运输；
3、禁止参与针对“抵抗轴心”相关行动的船舶往来；
4、拒不赔付伊朗相关损失的实体，不予开放通航权限；
5、违规主体最高处以货物价值20%罚款。
重点提醒：该法案目前仅处于议会审核阶段，尚未正式投票获批落地。
市场传导逻辑
霍尔木兹海峡承担全球近三成原油运输，消息传出直接推升国际原油风险溢价。
1、若法案后续落地推进，市场担忧航运受阻，油价易迎来上行压力；
2、油价持续走强会再度抬升全球通胀预期，压制美联储降息空间；
3、宏观流动性预期收紧环境下，风险资产普遍承压，加密市场难以独善其身；
4、短期属于预期炒作行情，核心跟踪两点：议会投票进度、周边各方回应态度。
⚠️风险提示：草案≠正式法律，存在修改、搁置可能性，切勿单纯依靠消息单边押注。地缘事件波动极其剧烈，交易严格做好风控。
$CL $BTC #宏观资讯 #地缘风险$ETH $SNDK TWLO（代币化股票）说明
TWLO并不是Twilio官方发行的加密币，只是交易所做的合成代币/代币化美股衍生品，锚定美股Twil
基础情况
1、本质：链上合成衍生品，价格跟随美股TWLO（Twilio云通信公司）实时波动，BSC链部署，2026‑07‑02上线，持币地址很少，深度薄，部分交易所提供现货+合约交易。
2、和真实美股区别：
- 美股TWLO：纽交所正规股票，财报、回购、监管齐全[(Twilio Inc...)]。
- 加密版TWLO：交易所合成，没有真实股票持仓，没有股东权益，不能拿分红，交易所规则、风控、爆仓机制完全由平台说了算，存在脱锚、平台跑路风险。
利好逻辑（对应美股基本面）
- Twilio业务转型AI通信，AI语音、对话工具增长较快，裁员降本优化利润，有股票回购计划，机构关注度回升。
- 美股层面，市场把它看作AI智能体的通信基础设施，AI叙事会带动股价弹性。
核心风险（加密TWLO代币特有）
1. 脱锚风险：美股休市时段，加密盘可以继续交易，容易出现大幅溢价/折价，和真实股价偏离。
2. 流动性极差：链上持币地址少，深度集中在少数交易所，一旦行情剧烈，容易插针、滑点巨大，难平仓。
3. 无底层保障：不是官方代币，没有代币经济学，没有项目团队，只是镜像衍生品，交易所可以随时下架。
4. 美股本身风险：Twilio是按量计费SaaS，宏观经济下行会直接冲击营收，估值偏高，业绩不及预期会直接带崩这个合成代币价格 。
后期走势简单判断
- 短期：完全跟随美股TWLO波动，受美股科技板块、AI板块情绪、财报数据驱动；加密盘额外会受交易所资金、合约多空爆仓影响，波动会比美股更大。美股大涨它才会涨，美股大跌它直接跟跌，休市时段容易出现异常插针。
- 中期：看Twilio AI业务落地、营收利润兑现；如果AI业务不及预期，美股回调，代币同步承压。
- 长期：这个合成代币本身没有长期价值，只是交易工具，存在下架、脱锚风险，不适合长期持有。 💰 With the market in such a dead state, the only ones still betting real money are not retail investors or institutional spot investors, but Washington.
Three things quietly happened this week: Senator Tim Scott declared that the CLARITY bill would be voted on this week without a doubt; A new round of crypto PACs smashed $1.5 million across three state districts; SBF's appeal was dismissed and his sentence was confirmed. Additionally, Bloomberg said BTC ETF inflows surged after the Coldcard hack—both policy and funding are shifting toward "compliance."
But look at the market: BTC is soldering at 64,432 (-0.42%), volume has dropped to -82.7%, OI 105,400 BTC frozen, rate +0.0010%, soft as cotton, fear greed 25 welded to death, breadth 4:11. Retail investors? Already all gone.
So the logic is: the real bottom position bids aren't in the order book, but in Capitol Hill and ETF subscription orders. Spot is completely dead≠ No one is positioning; it's just that the people who are setting positions have changed.
Here's a set of "three real bid looks" for brothers:(1) Focus on PAC / legislative fund flows, don't focus on finance headlines; (2) Continuous ETF inflows = institutional products are still being received; (3) Spot broad is less than 5% rising = retail investors haven't returned, don't rush in. Currently, (1) and (2) have it, (3) do not.
My order finally got tough: GRVT short flipped from -0.49% underwater to +0.61%, ADA went up +1.48%—the bearish indicator label was finally half removed.
Don't take 'policy benefits' as a charging charge, and don't treat 'dead markets' as doomsday. This week, do you believe those people in Washington are really paving the way, or do you still need to grind your trust? A: Lay the groundwork, B. Trust and grind again, C. Do the opposite, and the comments are marked with letters.

$BTC $ADA #CLARITY法案 #ETF流入 #监管利好 #市场广度 #风控策略 #新手科普 #行情分析 #OKX星球没人肯为大饼上涨掏钱了 这是历史最低水平
上周五凌晨那25分钟，攻击者从大约500个自托管钱包里把币卷走，按Glassnode口径是594枚，价值三千八百万美元。事情结束得比开始还快。
但真正奇怪的不是被盗，是市场的反应，没有反应。
链上那几天倒是热闹。沉睡一年以上的老币被唤醒了大约11.9万枚，是被盗数量的200倍。全生态的人连夜搬家，把币从可能有问题的种子里转出来。可这11.9万枚里最后真正流到交易所的只有大概十分之一，新地址数三天就回到基线，持有不到一个月的钱包供应量涨了40%还在往上走。这是搬冷钱包，不是跑路。
现货那边几乎什么都没登记上。本轮周期最大规模的老币被迫移动，没造出可测的抛压，也没砸出可辨的价格反应。
同一周，标普和道指双双破纪录，黄金跟着涨，原油因为地缘降温直接低开抹掉溢价。只有大饼纹丝不动，落后标普四个多百分点。全世界都在动，就它装死。
Glassnode这周把期权曲面拆成两只翅膀来看，扒出来一个更诡异的东西。
咱们一直说币圈期权有恐惧溢价，好像人人都在买保险。可实际情况是，上行隐含波动率印出了历史最低水平，大概23%；下行隐含波动率反而很普通，上一次比现在更便宜还得追溯到2023年8月。
翻译一下就是，没人为上涨付钱，也没人为下跌付多少钱。这个不对称不是因为看跌期权被疯抢，而是看涨期权的买盘直接消失了。
更拧巴的是情绪。同一周，一周25 Delta偏度在现货几乎没动的一天里单日崩了八个多点。定价的波动率趴在地板上，短期恐惧却在几个百分点的晃动上翻来覆去。永续资金费率钉在长期常态，说明杠杆不是放大器，情绪才是。市场花钱买了一周的平静，同时继续为半年后的风险付溢价。
筑底这块也不像以前。过去每次见底都是靠一场投降式抛售，盈利供应占比被砸到极端，波动率飙到天花板。这一轮是被几个月的阴跌磨出来的，目的地一样，路完全不一样。Glassnode那个卖方耗尽常数的30日均值已经进了过去每一次底部形成的区域，但还比历次熊市真正的地板高出三分之一左右。站在门口，还没进屋。
需求那边更冷。上一轮牛市的两条机构轨道现在在反着转，光6月基金就净流出约6.58万枚，是有记录以来最差的单月，对比2024年底最好那个月净吸收超过21.8万枚。企业财库还在买，但量级完全补不上这个缺口。
一个连自己最核心的信仰群体被抢了都懒得眨一下眼的市场，你觉得是它扛住了，还是场子里已经没什么人了？$SPCX Can't go down??? Can't see double-digit SPCX anymore?
911.5 million shares were released from restrictions on August 6, accounting for 20% of SpaceX's shares with an 180-day lock-up period.
Based on the closing price of $108.27 on August 5, the unlocked market value is approximately $98.7 billion.
No additional unlocking triggered: Because the stock price did not reach the $175.50 threshold (closing price on August 5 was only $108.27), the originally planned additional unlocking of 455.8 million shares (10%) was not released
SpaceX did not adopt the traditional IPO "180-day one-time release" approach, but instead designed nine batches to be released in stages:
August 6: First 20% (911.5 million shares).
August 21: Second tranche of 7% (approximately 319 million shares).
September to December: Multiple subsequent releases will bring the total number of outstanding shares to 5.33 billion by early December (more than seven times higher than current).
You wouldn't naively think that's 😨 it, right? In half a month, there will still be 7% of 319 million shares to be unlocked!
By December, the number of shares outstanding will be more than seven times the current float!
So, considering all the above data, I remain confident that it will drop into double digits. I plan to wait for double-digit levels before bottom-fishing!!$SNDK SanDisk earnings drama unfolds
Quarterly results explode, revenue soars 372% year-over-year, and a massive $14 billion buyback is announced.
However, the next quarter's revenue guidance failed to meet the market's crazy expectations, causing the stock price to plunge nearly 7%.
The AI storage long-term cycle logic remains, but high-level funds have started to take profits, leading to a phase of intense volatility.
The storage sector was collectively dragged down; after the peak, the market's demands on performance become increasingly stringent.
The fundamentals have not collapsed, and the AI storage demand logic still holds; the root cause of the decline is that the market's prior expectations were too inflated, and the next quarter's guidance did not meet the frenzied expectations, prompting profit-taking. #闪迪财报双超预期，新增140亿美元回购授权 #德克萨斯州格赖姆斯县划出巨额基建蓝图，特斯拉与SpaceX将初始注资168亿美元建设Terafab，将重资产扩张的压力推到了风险资产面前。

#Polymarket洽谈10亿美元融资，估值超200亿美元 #Circle财报后押注Arc，USDC能否迎来新增长？ #意大利大行减IBIT普通股94%，加仓质押ETHTesla and SpaceX jointly invested $16.8 billion to build Terafab, directly pushing massive capital expenditure pressure into the secondary market, with liquidity preferences and long-term computing power expectations becoming the core contradiction.
The initial plan implemented in Grimes County involves $16.8 billion in capital expenditure, a scale that means long positions must bear valuation risk due to cash flow squeeze in the short term. Liquidity sensitivity has increased, and the market's pricing of forward industry synergies versus immediate financial burdens has become clearly diverged.
The top driver affecting trading table pricing is the degree to which capital expenditure squeezes cash reserves, with rights and responsibilities and capital contribution ratios ranking second, and the actual computing power realization rhythm carried by the Texas production line ranking third.
The upward scenario triggered by a shift in market preference toward high-growth assets, with funds interpreting the $16.8 billion expenditure as accelerated construction of computing power barriers. If the specific investment structure disclosed later on falls short of expectations for $TSLA and the overall market appetite for high-beta tech stocks rebounds, the market will undergo a valuation reshaping.
When overall market liquidity tightens, or funds continue to revise their free cash flow expectations downward due to massive capital expenditures, the bullish logic immediately fails.
The downside scenario is triggered by capital risk aversion dominating the market. The initial investment of $16.8 billion may raise concerns about cash flow pressure or financing dilution, with short positions increasing to suppress the stock price and trigger position crushing.
If overall market risk appetite rises strongly and funds ignore short-term cash flow pressures and prematurely factor in the value of Terafab capacity, short selling will be completely halted.
If there are major adjustments to the funding terms for this project or investment progress stalls, the transmission logic of capital expenditure and risk appetite will lose its benchmark.
The most important variable to watch in the next seven days is the change in net long short positions after the release of the detailed investment ratios of both companies.
#ADP就业降温, the Fed's policy divergence intensified #MSTR再卖1638枚比特币, with the scale halved by #伊朗阿曼临时通航协议近落地Can Tim Scott really turn the tide? Can the Republicans really eliminate dissenters and then find enough Democratic votes to start voting?
As the Clarity Act arrived on Friday and the Senate summer recess window approached, Tim Scott offered a new perspective: he said Republicans would definitely hold a procedural vote on the Clarity Act before the recess, and even suggested the Senate would decide to delay the adjournment
Tim Scott is considered Trump's temporary mouthpiece, as he expressed this week that he could delay the adjournment to allow a procedural vote on the Clarity Act, aiming to buy enough time for the bill. However, whether the Senate can delay the recess will depend on Speaker Thune's stance
So far, Thune has not made a clear statement on this, so whether the Senate can delay the recess remains unknown. The market #Bitcoin has not shown optimistic pricing, prices remain volatile, and the probability of a pre-recess procedure passing on Polymarket is as low as 17%
Clearly, Tim Scott's viewpoint seems optimistic, but its actual driving force is still lacking verification. The current challenge for the Republicans is to first reach a high point within the party, and then persuade certain Democrats to initiate the process, but for now, the possibility remains very low
At this stage, the focus is not on the Clarity Bill, but on whether Senate Majority Leader Thune announces a delayed recess. If this issue is not resolved, the Clarity Bill will be unlikely to enter the Senate process! #财报观察员: Mixed Results, Lifting the Restrictions Imminent! What is SpaceX's outlook going forward? SanDisk earnings review: performance exceeded expectations, stock price plunged.
The long-term logic for AI storage remains, but the earlier gains have already priced in optimistic expectations. "Buy the rumor, sell the fact" plays out again.
The rebound after the sharp drop is merely a correction; do not hastily conclude a reversal.
In highly volatile markets, risk control always takes precedence over directional predictions. Watch 800 SanDisk will deliver data tomorrow evening, with market expectations for Q4 revenue of $8.39 billion, a sharp 41% increase quarter-on-quarter, and earnings per share of $33.01, up 43% quarter-on-quarter. Judging by the numbers alone, this should be a celebration, with official guidelines even pushing the ceiling to $8.25 billion. But the July 47% monthly candlestick shows that US stock funds have long stopped focusing on these three melons and two dates; they fear whether the AI-driven NAND boom cycle will last into the next year. Looking back at the Q3 report card, revenue was $5.95 billion, doubling quarter-over-quarter and soaring 243% year-on-year, with gross margin soaring to 78.4%. Data center business was $1.467 billion in a single quarter, a 645% year-on-year increase. This is no longer just exceeding expectations—it's like flipping the table. Even worse, SanDisk signed multi-year supply agreements with the five major AI giants, locking in $42 billion in minimum contract revenue, with written guarantees covering one-third of the shipments in fiscal year 2027, forcibly turning cyclical stocks into quasi-infrastructure assets. The balance sheet is zero debt, and the board approved a $6 billion buyback—this confidence is no joke. An institution made a statement before its earnings report, saying this quarter would be very strong, with three main logic: the 2026 NAND supply gap will not be closed, long-term protocols will smooth out cyclical issues, and self-developed SPRandom technology will reduce SSD preprocessing time from 144 hours to 6 hours, making the cost advantage obvious. #Circle财报后押注Arc, can USDC experience new growth? #财报观察员: Mixed results, unbanned general
