The impact of Robinhood FUD on Lighter is fading
Personally, I think the impact of the previous wave of FUD has passed.
At the end of September, Robinhood announced the launch of perpetual contracts in the US via Bitstamp, causing $LIT to plummet nearly 20% at one point. The market was worried that Lighter would be marginalized by Robinhood, but the data does not support this narrative—Lighter's perpetual contract exchange on the Robinhood Chain has achieved a new 30-day revenue high of $1.95 million, a month-on-month increase of 92.66%, accounting for 41.2% of Lighter's total revenue.
Lighter's CEO recently also clearly stated: Lighter is the exclusive on-chain perpetual contract partner within the Robinhood wallet, following a long-term compliance path.
On the charts, $LIT rebounded after touching the 20-week moving average for the first time since June, with sentiment clearly warming up. FUD tells stories, revenue tells facts.
$LIT #Lighter The direction is right, but choosing the wrong target still leads to losses.
The logic for shorting ETH/BTC is straightforward: ETH has steadily declined 7% from 2,697, breaking the 2,620 support, with 2,650 turning into resistance, and ETF net outflows for five consecutive days; BTC's 83,000 is the average ETF cost level, repeatedly tested but unable to hold, with the market predicting a 67% chance of falling below 80,000 in October. After CPI settled at 3.7%, BTC broke 83,000, ETH dropped to 2,362, with bears dominating the pace.
Three judgments: Hold the ETH short position with a stop loss above 2,520; hold the BTC short position without adding, if 81,000 cannot hold, look for 77,000.
Lesson: When liquidity is poor, only BTC and ETH have real liquidity; narratives are priced in last.
$BTC $ETH $ZEC #台积电Q3净利润超预期，盈利创历史新高 #奈飞增长或放缓，广告业务成新看点 I believe the probability of Netflix exceeding expectations in this quarter's earnings report is limited.
The market's real focus is no longer just on revenue and profit growth, but on whether this growth can be sustained and whether the advertising business can fulfill its long-term valuation. After the subscription business matures, advertising monetization indeed offers new growth potential, but the potential of a new business does not equal an overperformance in the current period.
Even if revenue meets expectations and profit margins continue to improve, it may not be enough to bring surprises. If the market has already priced in high growth expectations for the advertising business, then a seemingly good earnings report might only meet expectations rather than exceed them.
Therefore, I pay more attention to the actual monetization speed of the advertising business, the quality of user growth, and management's guidance for the next few quarters. Under high expectations, Netflix needs to provide stronger incremental evidence to truly break market expectations.
My judgment: this quarter is more likely to meet expectations rather than significantly exceed them. Zuck is aggressively taking private coaching classes at the AI gym, spending tens of billions of dollars a year, and now the coaches want to evaluate. 🏋️
The market used to be tolerant: advertisers made money fiercely, AI expenses were treated like lottery tickets, which made sense. Now the environment has changed, with sticky inflation and high interest rates, the market has entered an audit period—after burning so much money, is there any impact?
Meta has three assignments to submit.
First, whether ads have been fattened by AI. The impact of AI on ad revenue through recommendation algorithms and conversion rates must be included in the financial report, otherwise it’s pure money burning.
Second, how to monetize Llama. Open source brought an ecosystem, but influence can’t offset depreciation costs. AI glasses, enterprise models, cloud revenue sharing—there must be a real path to actual cash.
Third, capital expenditure discipline. GPUs bought immediately incur depreciation, and the profit statement is a public execution every quarter: was the spending worth it? The numbers will speak.
Don’t forget the metaverse’s past mistakes—hundreds of billions exchanged for a "strategic adjustment" apology letter. The market has a good memory; the same script won’t get a second round of applause.
The AI arms race truly has no retreat, but "no retreat" doesn’t mean "guaranteed returns." This evaluation tests not only technology but also Zuck’s storytelling credit balance. After messing up once, the second time he has to pay back with numbers. 📊

$BTC dropped near 81,000, being hammered three times in three days.
Each time it did not break below.
What is this price level:
The real market average is 78,000, the ETF average cost is 81,500.
The current price is stuck right between these two lines.
Institutions themselves are also at a loss.
What others think:
ETF is flowing out, retail investors are selling, it looks like it's going to collapse.
I actually think this is more like a turnover.
In 72 hours, whales have accumulated 15,000 coins.
At the moment it was triggered:
The cost line is repeatedly tested, indicating sellers are around this area.
Buyers are also around this area.
Whoever runs out of inventory first loses.
What we really need to wait for is not a price rebound.
It's the day when ETF flows turn from outflow to inflow.

#$BTC #交易之声：你的经验值得被听到
Today's comment Q: Before getting back in, which confirmation signal do you value the most?
A: The biggest trap in the crypto space over the years has been "mistaking a rebound for a reversal." Many so-called entry signals are actually just a downtrend continuation or emotional recovery. The losses experienced by veterans are basically:
Seeing a strong bullish candle on the 4-hour or daily chart and rushing in;
Only to find it was just a rebound within a larger downtrend on a higher timeframe;
Ending up getting pushed down again and the position forced out.
So now, before entering, my core confirmation is:
At the weekly or daily level, a key resistance level is effectively broken (not a wick, but a close above and hold).
On the pullback, the former resistance turns into support and does not break.
During the breakout and pullback, there is decent volume support (not a low-volume fake rally).
Only when all three conditions are met do I consider the "structure changed," rather than just a simple emotional fluctuation.Don't be misled by the upgrade hype. The huge gains in the early stage have already priced in expectations; once the inflation data is released, it will break down directly, with all continuous supports breached, and long positions worth tens of millions of dollars liquidated. Even if the upgrade is implemented in November, it can easily turn into a realization of the good news, so be careful not to buy at the peak when the good news is delivered. #Netflix growth may slow, advertising business becomes new focus #Fed's October rate hike probability drops to about 17%
[Old Leek Observation] The Fed's October rate hike probability drops to about 15%, but the market still doesn't dare to fully relax this time
The Fed's October meeting hasn't started yet, but market expectations for a rate hike have already cooled significantly.
According to market reports on October 16, CME FedWatch shows that traders' bets on the Fed raising rates by another 25 basis points this month have dropped to about 14.9%, down from around 27.7% the day before.
The key change lies in: Fed Chair Kevin Warsh's latest speech did not send a clear signal of a rate hike, causing the market to readjust expectations.
For the crypto market, this is considered a relatively easing macro signal. If expectations for further rate hikes continue to decline, the pressure from the dollar and interest rates may ease, and risk assets like BTC, ETH may also get some breathing room.
But don't rush to interpret this as "the good news has already landed."
US inflation remains an unavoidable issue for the Fed; less talk about future policy does not mean no rate hikes; a lower probability of a rate hike this month does not mean the risk of tightening within the year has completely disappeared.
I am more focused on the next two signals: one is whether inflation data will continue to pressure the Fed, and the other is whether $BTC can turn the improved macro sentiment into sustained price performance.#Netflix growth may slow, advertising business becomes new focus #霍尔木兹商船遇袭，石油运输持续承压 $CL
Oil passing through the strait has dropped from a daily average of 15.5 million barrels to 2.9 million barrels.
▪️ On 10/14, two Singapore-registered container ships were attacked in the strait, one caught fire and sank
▪️ On October 11, oil transported through the strait dropped to about 2.9 million barrels/day
▪️ In September, the daily average was about 15.5 million barrels, a drop of over 80%
▪️ From 9/28 to 10/5, there were at least 12 attacks on oil and gas transport ships, the highest weekly total since the conflict began
▪️ On 10/5, an oil tanker was attacked, injuring 12 crew members
▪️ The US side said on 10/12 it helped transport over 19 million barrels through the strait in one day
The disagreement is not about the number of attacks, but whether the "transport pressure" refers to ships or cargo.
The sunken vessels were container ships carrying containerized cargo; oil tankers follow different routes. What truly affects oil prices is whether oil tankers can pass—the 2.9 million barrels figure does not include dark ships that have turned off their transponders, so the data itself is incomplete. The escort declaration and the sinking incident occurred simultaneously, indicating there is still no answer on who provides security for the passage.
The outlook is to wait and see—only a continuous rebound in oil tanker traffic will be considered relief; if container ships continue to be attacked, insurance premiums will rise first.#奈飞增长或放缓，广告业务成新看点 Optimistic about the advertising model, membership will eventually come to an endThe candlestick on October 15th deserves a separate mention
To be serious. The candlestick on October 15th deserves a separate mention.
$DOGE hit a low of 0.0777 that day and closed back at 0.0812. The total volume was 2.03 billion coins, the highest since September 21st. The 4-hour candlestick at noon was even more obvious: a single candle traded 1.24 billion coins, the price dipped down and then recovered, with a long lower shadow.
This data indicates two things. First, there really were buyers below 0.078. When the price dropped there, the buy orders not only caught it but pushed the price back up, showing real money at work. Second, don’t rush to call the bottom. RSI is still at 38, MACD is still below the zero line, and the price is below all moving averages; the trend hasn’t strengthened yet, so one support doesn’t tell the whole story.
My view is simple: 0.0777 is the recent bottom line. If the close holds above it, look for recovery; if it closes below, honestly reassess. No guessing, just watch this one number.
Having watched the market for eleven years, the most valuable skill I’ve learned is to draw fewer conclusions. It’s a fact that there are buyers at the low; it’s also a fact that the trend hasn’t reversed. Both facts are here, the rest is up to time.😂 Besides CPI, the US September PPI also exploded! Inflation surged 6.3%, far exceeding the 5.4% expectation. Can the "soft landing" narrative still continue?
Let's look at the data first. The final demand PPI for September jumped 1.3% month-over-month, far exceeding the expected 0.5%, marking the largest single-month increase since March 2022. Year-over-year, it soared to 6.3%, the highest since December 2022, well above the 5.4% expectation.
Energy prices are the absolute main driver, with overall commodity prices rising 2.6%, the largest monthly increase on record. Among them, energy surged 10.8%, and gasoline skyrocketed 20.3% in a single month.
Core PPI was also active: excluding food, energy, and trade services, it rose 0.5% month-over-month and 5% year-over-year; excluding food and energy, the monthly increase was 0.7%, all higher than expected.
But the strange thing is the market reaction: it didn't crash.
The S&P 500 closed up 0.33%, and the Nasdaq also closed up 0.08%. Why?
Because the day before, CPI had already washed out the panic trades, and the market has become numb to "bad inflation news." Although the indexes didn't fall, funds are moving from AI and chip stocks to value stocks and small caps, risk aversion is rising, and the strong Bitcoin is also seeing a rebound. #Why is the first rebound after a sharp drop most likely to cause losses? BTC current increase +1.85%
During a major decline, the market is generally shrouded in fear, with clear risk perception. But once the price pulls up, FOMO sentiment spreads rapidly. Those who missed out rush to enter and catch up, while traders who originally planned to reduce positions, influenced by anchoring effect, start imagining a new round of upward trend. Much of this upward momentum is just short covering, not a return of long-term funds, so sustainability is questionable.
More than the rebound magnitude, three points are worth observing: whether ETFs can maintain continuous net inflows, whether spot trading volume expands in sync with the rebound, and whether the price can hold key levels against pullbacks. If these three do not improve, a single bullish candle is insufficient to change the original judgment. If the market shows resilience against negative news, strong support on pullbacks, and continuous capital inflows, the view will be dynamically adjusted. I will not fixate on bullish or bearish positions.
Ask yourself: is your current judgment supported by capital signals, or is it driven by emotions triggered by the market? Once there is a volume breakout above key resistance, this observation logic no longer applies.
$BTC $ETH $SOL $NEAR has been quite strong recently, rising 14% in the past 24 hours, while $BTC only rose 2.2%. The correlation between the two is 0.68, with a beta of 2.88, indicating that $NEAR is leveraged following $BTC rather than moving independently. However, based on the beta, this BTC wave should only drive $NEAR up about 6%, so the remaining 7+ points are from $NEAR's own momentum, not just following the rise. The price has now pulled back 3.95% from the previous high of $5.44, and the previous low of $4.528 has not been broken, so the structure remains intact. Open interest increased by 36.4% in 24 hours, and the funding rate is still positive, not turning negative, indicating bulls are still adding positions. The $5.185 level below has been tested 21 times, held 7 times, and broken 14 times; once broken, it is likely to continue to test lower. If shorting, place a stop loss above $5.44; if it breaks below $5.185, I will wait and watch, looking for opportunities once it stabilizes. Do you think this wave is a shakeout or will it continue to fall? #OKXTraderVoices $BTC stuck at 82000! The main force has swept out the bulls, who will be targeted next?
When the direction is unclear, controlling your hands is more valuable than anything.
News shows that short-term holders' positions have increased to 4.08 million coins, the highest since mid-June. New buyers' costs are concentrated between 82000 and 86000, with an average cost of about 74900. 74900 is the breakeven line for this group; falling below it will increase selling pressure.
Technical analysis:
On the 4-hour chart, BTC peaked at 87395 and has since declined, currently consolidating around 82000. Although MACD shows a golden cross, both DIF and DEA are below the zero line, indicating weak rebound momentum.
Capital flow:
Net outflow of 832 million in 24 hours, and 5.777 billion net outflow in the past 30 days. Continuous capital bleeding means the rebound lacks fuel.
Liquidation chart:
A large amount of long liquidation pressure is stacked between 73830 and 81750 below the current price, while short liquidations are between 83070 and 84390 above. The price is stuck in the middle, with risks on both sides.
Trading strategy:
Longs: Light long positions near 81750 to 82000 if stable, target around 83000 to 84000.
Shorts: Short positions under pressure near 83500 to 84000, target around 82000 to 81750.

#美国CPI与PPI双超预期，年内能否再加息？ In the past two days, I have been following some news related to CFX.
Domestically, Visa has been approved to prepare a bank card clearing institution within the country. Someone in the group shouted "Cross-border payment + Web3 is a big positive," saying CFX is going to soar.
But from a cross-border professional perspective, Visa holds a RMB bank card clearing license, clearing through traditional card organization networks, which has no direct relation to public chain tokens. Visa's overseas stablecoin settlement is true, but the premise for entering China is compliance, and the domestic crypto ban remains unchanged.
Looking at the market, CFX is currently priced at 0.05612. It previously surged from 0.037 to 0.078 and then retreated; now it is in an emotional digestion phase. So this news seems more like "narrative arbitrage" rather than a fundamental positive.
I will continue holding spot, but I won’t chase the price high because of a single news item. The long-term logic of cross-border Web3 can be discussed, but in the short term, we still have to watch policies and real adoption. $BTC $ZEC $CFX #台积电Q3净利润超预期，盈利创历史新高 Today I came across some data: 81% of DOGE leveraged accounts on OKX are going long, and the long position ratio on Binance has also risen to 75.81%, increasing by nearly 6 points in just one day.
81%. Think about it, people who use leverage are already bold, and now over 80% are betting on the same direction. Some say this is risky—everyone is crowded on one side, and if it drops, there could be a chain liquidation.
But look at it from another angle: this wave of leveraged longs was added right after the market just crashed, with nearly $1 billion liquidated across the market. It’s not chasing highs in a good market, but bottom-fishing during others’ panic selling.
Also, I noticed a detail. The funding rate for perpetual contracts is only 0.01% every 8 hours, basically the exchange’s minimum standard, which annualizes to just 0.03%. On one hand, positions are heavily weighted long; on the other, the funding rate hasn’t risen. What does this mean? It means the longs aren’t blindly rushing in; someone is steadily building positions, not rushing to pump or run.
$DOGE is now hovering around 0.082. With three-quarters of people aligned in direction, I’ll follow along and hold on for now. Yesterday, after the PPI surged and Bitcoin fell below 80,000 only to recover, today it has been grinding between 80,000 and 82,600 all day. The 24-hour high was 82,643, just $9 above this morning's rebound high of 82,634, meaning it hasn't moved much all day. The total 24-hour liquidations across the network dropped from $973 million yesterday to $320 million, and for the first time longs and shorts are nearly balanced—longs at $171 million, shorts at $150 million. The one-sided panic from yesterday is over. Why say this? Because three things all played out in the least bad way. First, at 11:30 AM Warsh spoke at the IMF annual meeting in Bangkok, his last statement before the quiet period. He chose not to set any tone: he refused to predict whether there will be a rate hike in October, only saying the world is "roughly in line with expectations since the September meeting," and he affirmed the US investment boom—so the feared "hawkish tone and retesting 80,000" did not happen this morning. Second, at 4 PM the Deribit options settlement passed smoothly, with prices not "pinned" at 80,000, indicating market makers' hedging did not create new volatility. Third, the batch of leverage liquidated last night was real: 84,257 people were liquidated in 24 hours, the largest single liquidation was a $4.81 million BTC long on Binance. After this washout, today's long and short liquidations are balanced, and the leverage structure is healthier than yesterday. But don't be fooled by the emotional recovery. The fear and greed index has shifted from $NEAR's performance today is quite outstanding.
The price has reached around $5.29, with a 24-hour increase of over 15%, and a rise of more than 100% in the past 30 days.
This round of NEAR's surge is somewhat different from the past, which was purely about speculating on public chain performance. Now the project is developing around NEAR Intents, chain abstraction, and AI Agent.
NEAR Intents allow users to complete cross-chain operations by expressing transaction intentions, without having to manage the transaction processes of different networks step by step themselves.
If this mechanism can attract more real users, its significance to the NEAR ecosystem will be much greater than simply improving TPS.
However, NEAR had previously approached $6, then experienced a clear pullback. It has now returned to around $5.3, with a short-term focus on whether it can break through $5.5.
If it stabilizes again, there is still a chance to retest $6.
#奈飞增长或放缓，广告业务成新看点 Hello brothers and sisters, I am Coin Brother.
From past historical experience, after every U.S. midterm election, Bitcoin often undergoes a deep correction. Looking back at previous rounds of data: after the 2014 election, it dropped 46.7%; after the 2018 election, it dropped 50.6%; and after the 2022 election, it also dropped 14.9%. A post-election dip has almost become an unavoidable old script.
But this year's macro environment is completely different from the past. The September PPI year-on-year surged directly to 6.3%, the sharpest increase since 2022; CPI year-on-year is 3.7%, and core inflation data also exceeded market expectations. The energy shock is transmitting down the industrial chain, with diesel prices rising 21% and airfares jumping 5%. CME interest rate futures are betting that the probability of a rate hike in December is approaching 90%.
Inflation is not coming down, and rate hike expectations are rising, so the entire risk asset market is taking a hit. However, the current market structure is also different. The spot Bitcoin ETF has opened a new entry channel for corporate funds, and institutional participation is much higher than a few years ago. Some traders speculate that even if there is a correction after the election, it is more likely to form a higher low than before, rather than directly hitting a cycle bottom.
History always rhymes when it repeats, but it never copies exactly the same.
#特斯拉发布新一代Roadster，行情走高 #美国CPI与PPI双超预期，年内能否再加息？ #奈飞增长或放缓，广告业务成新看点 $BTC $ETH $ZEC #MajiBro 6100 ETH Long Position, Looks Convergent but Risk Remains High
6100 ETH, this position size is the core to observing Maji's current operations. Many are curious, after consecutive market shocks, has he become more cautious?
This 25x full-position long was opened at an average price of $2398.52, with the current position value at $14.8956 million, an unrealized profit of $264,600, and an estimated liquidation price of $2404.33. The account lost $586,600 in the past 7 days, recovered $116,800 in 24 hours, but overall still has a cumulative loss of $36.442 million. The position value corresponds to an ETH price of about $2442, only 1.54% away from the liquidation price. The unrealized profit looks good, but the drawdown tolerance is very small.
You can see the position has shrunk, but it's unclear whether this is an active reduction or due to limited available funds. He still bets on an ETH rebound; the so-called "convergence" might have a completely different standard from ordinary people 😮. Where do you set your ETH limit orders or stop-loss points?
$ETH $BTC $SOL The bull is here, but we still need to be cautious. Looking at the liquidation data, the current market sentiment for $BTC $ETH #ETF与巨鲸资金分化，BTC能否守住8万美元？
From the latest liquidation stats, we can read some market psychology:
For BTC, in the past hour, long liquidations far exceed shorts, indicating a short-term sweep of longs upward; over 12-24 hours, long and short liquidations are nearly equal, showing the overall direction is still a tug-of-war with no clear winner.
ETH is even more interesting. In 24 hours, short liquidations dominate, with many bearish bets washed out, showing stronger short-term resilience on the long side.
Nearly 80,000 people liquidated today, with total liquidations exceeding $322 million, which shows the volatility is quite damaging.
With high leverage, even if you pick the right direction, a sudden spike can easily knock you out.
The market is never about who predicts best, but who survives longest. Don’t be greedy for short-term gains. I also have positions #we can learn from each other. BTC has already run today, then the market reset$#NetflixQ3AdsAndMargins Tesla's stock price has recently been fluctuating around $360, with a pre-market surge of nearly 5%. The Q3 earnings report is scheduled for release after the market closes on October 21. Wall Street expects adjusted earnings per share of about $0.45, down approximately 10% year-over-year, and revenue of about $27.78 billion, a slight decline of 1.1% year-over-year. Goldman Sachs maintains a neutral rating with a target price of $360, believing that the production ramp-up of the Model Y L is likely to drive improvements in the automotive business, but rising costs and increased capital expenditures may limit EPS upside. Why should the crypto market pay attention to this earnings season? Because the correlation between BTC and tech stocks is systematically increasing. At the beginning of 2026, the correlation between BTC and the Nasdaq 100 once reached 0.75, and changes in risk appetite for tech stocks are transmitting more quickly to crypto asset prices. This is no coincidence. Companies like Tesla, Meta, Microsoft, and Google are no longer just tech stocks; they are barometers of risk asset sentiment. When the market is optimistic about AI narratives and growth prospects, capital flows into tech stocks and crypto assets; when earnings guidance disappoints, both tend to come under pressure simultaneously. The upcoming earnings calendar is worth watching closely: October 20, Netflix leads off. October 21, Tesla reports. October 28, Alphabet and Microsoft report on the same day. November 4, Meta closes the season. The entire tech sector's Q3 earnings are expected to grow 43.3% year-over-year, making it the largest contributor to S&P 500 earnings growth. What really matters is not the numbers, but the stance on AI. Market #台积电Q3净利润超预期，盈利创历史新高 When I last wrote that article "The Weekend Slash," I made a judgment on CPI: overall year-on-year hitting 3.7%, core month-on-month kept within 0.2%, BTC aiming to test the 84,500 wall; if core month-on-month runs up to 0.3%, the probability of a rate hike jumps, BTC first tests 82,000, if broken then look at 80,000. No sooner said than done, the data slapped right at the 0.3% mark. On Wednesday (10/14) night, the September CPI came out: overall year-on-year 3.7% (expected 3.6%, previous 3.4%), core month-on-month exactly 0.3% (expected 0.2%). Gasoline rose 9.1% in one month, supporting more than half of the increase. Once the news came out, BTC's lowest that day crashed to 80,760 USD — that 80,000 I mentioned, it really went there. I deliberately made this chart "Actual vs Expected." Did you notice: CPI is hot (red, above expectations), but the next day (10/15) PPI cooled down — overall month-on-month 0.4% below expected 0.5%, core month-on-month 0.2% also below expected 0.3%. The signals are split. Hot CPI means terminal inflation is still sticky; cool PPI means upstream is not that fierce. What the market folks fear most is this kind of "incomprehensible," so on Wednesday ETFs directly had a net outflow of 390 million USD: BTC alone 261 million$STRK 50x top short, liquidity harvesting at the unlocking window
Entry: 0.08674 | Current price: 0.07593 | Margin profit: +7.1x
Core logic: The unlocking of 127 million tokens on 10/15 (about $11 million) is verifiable on-chain, forming a deterministic sell pressure schedule. 0.08674 is the dense distribution area of the main upward narrative phase, with three diminishing volume rallies — this is a traceable volume-price divergence, not hindsight storytelling. CPI exceeding expectations only accelerated this process, compressing the "narrative-driven overvaluation" into a "liquidity-driven decline."
Execution discipline: The 7x odds opportunity comes from prior verification, not from 50x leverage. The first 50% position is taken profit at the initial support zone, the remaining position’s stop loss is moved up to 0.0780 to lock in positive returns, using 10% of the position to bet on a breakout continuation.
If wrong: Exit upon a reverse breakout above 0.0880 (pre-unlock high), with losses controllable within 10% of the margin. $BTC $ETH #奈飞增长或放缓，广告业务成新看点 Updates on US-Iran dynamics, one message needs to be downgraded and corrected:
1. As mentioned yesterday, the US Department of Energy proposed temporarily lifting sanctions on the "shadow fleet" to buffer international energy supply issues. However, market analysts today believe that the energy output from the shadow fleet may not be sufficient to offset the shortfall caused by the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, so
2. Washington's economic sanctions on Tehran have intensified, already affecting the foreign exchange settlement channels between Iranian domestic banks and overseas banks. The US has escalated economic sanctions on Iran.
3. The new agreement negotiations between Iran and Oman on the "Strait of Hormuz" have been completed, but whether it can be activated depends on political negotiations between the US and Iran.
From the current situation, alternative transport routes outside the Strait of Hormuz have been temporarily ruled out, meaning that whether it is energy supply or geopolitics, the focus returns to the US-Iran situation.
Regarding the US-Iran situation, there is currently not much effective information. My personal worst-case scenario considers the turning point to be after October 27 and before November 3. If there is no positive change during this period, the US-Iran situation really needs to be viewed pessimistically!#霍尔木兹商船遇袭，石油运输持续承压 ZEC一天涨了13%，山寨季的预期又被点起来了。

#美国CPI与PPI双超预期，年内能否再加息？#奈飞增长或放缓，广告业务成新看点 Netflix is now facing a very real problem: pure subscriber growth has basically hit a ceiling, and relying on continuous price increases to boost revenue is becoming increasingly difficult. The market is now focused on whether the advertising business can take up the banner of growth. Here are my thoughts: ✅Positive logic: Low-cost ad plans have become a powerful tool for attracting new users, with over 60% of new users in many regions directly choosing the ad-supported version. The growth rate of the advertising business far exceeds that of traditional subscription revenue, meaning that on the basis of unchanged content costs, the same group of users can generate both membership fees and advertising fees simultaneously, directly boosting profit margins. Advertisers' willingness to invest continues to rise, and institutions estimate that advertising revenue could double this year. ⚠️But we should not be blindly optimistic The streaming market is highly competitive, with Disney and Amazon Video also vying for users, and the advertising industry itself is experiencing price wars. Moreover, Netflix spends huge amounts on content annually, and advertising currently accounts for a relatively small portion of overall revenue, making it difficult in the short term to fully offset the pressure from sluggish subscriber growth. If there is a gap in hit series releases and user viewing time declines, ad fill rates will come under pressure. Market viewpoints on both sides: Bullish: Advertising is the second growth curve; as advertising technology improves and the advertiser base continues to expand, profits can be steadily increased over the long term, with room for valuation recovery. Cautious: Advertising is still in its early stages and relatively small in scale, only adding a little extra benefit and unable to fundamentally solve the underlying problem of slowing user growth. If ad prices fall short of expectations, the positive outlook can easily fall through. Trading focus: Going forward, the earnings report will focus on advertising revenue,$LINK
LINK rebounds over 3%, does infrastructure importance necessarily mean outperforming?
Spot price rose about 3.39% in 24 hours, ranging between 11.824—12.606, with price positioned at the upper end, gains close to ETH. Currently, it looks more like a synchronized correction, not enough to confirm a clear excess trend.
The importance of data services is not the same as token demand growth. It is necessary to verify how service usage translates into fees, staking, or other real demand; the intermediate steps cannot be omitted.
If the 12.606 breakout holds and relative performance to ETH continues to improve, independent strength is more credible; if the upper boundary is repeatedly resisted, it should continue to be treated as a range. If 11.824 is lost, the correction assessment needs to be downgraded; industry status cannot replace price support.After the CPI data was released, BTC fell below 80,000 dollars, then rebounded back to around 82,000. Asian stock markets also rose together, as the market is slowly digesting the panic caused by the data.
Some asked Yao Yao if this rebound was because Australia is about to introduce a cryptocurrency trading reporting bill?
Actually, this bill is still just a draft and has not officially come into effect. BTC's recent rise seems more like a coincidence in timing.
This is all part of the crypto industry's long-term compliance direction, which has little short-term impact on the market. It's like the recent SOL team coming to Shanghai to plan blockchain development—these are long-term matters and hardly directly affect the short-term market in the past few days.
Next, focus on two things:
1. The ETF fund inflow and outflow situation next Monday
2. U.S. Treasury yields, using these two signals to judge the market direction ahead #特斯拉发布新一代Roadster，行情走高 #美国CPI与PPI双超预期，年内能否再加息？ #奈飞增长或放缓，广告业务成新看点 $BTC $ETH Before Tesla's earnings report this time, the catalysts have indeed been quite intense. The Roadster just completed a new round of demonstrations, and Wall Street has started seriously discussing the possibility of a merger with SpaceX. Next, on October 21 after the U.S. stock market closes, the Q3 earnings report will be revealed. Personally, I think these factors have the potential to boost Tesla's stock performance. But to judge how far the market can go, we need to separate the excitement brought by product launches from the actual returns shareholders will ultimately receive. The Roadster can improve the market's perception of Tesla's technical capabilities, and merger expectations might bring additional valuation premiums. The task of the earnings report is to convince investors that the company can withstand this round of investment. Deliveries have already exceeded expectations; next, we need to see how much profit is made from selling cars. Looking at the current consensus on Tesla's Q3 from Wall Street, the estimate is about $27.8 billion in revenue and $0.44 earnings per share. Different institutions have slightly different models, but overall, the market's profit expectations are not aggressive. Vehicle delivery numbers have already been announced: 486,500 units delivered in Q3, about 5.3% higher than the market expectation of 462,000 units. This supports the revenue. Meanwhile, energy storage deployment was only 13.7 GWh, below the previous expectation of 15.9 GWh, so whether the energy business can contribute enough profit still needs to be verified by the earnings report. Therefore, saying "deliveries exceeded expectations" on the day of the earnings report no longer provides much new information. What really matters is at what price these cars were sold, and how much profit was consumed by promotions and financing incentives. In Q2, according to the earnings data,#MSCI new rules may remove Strategy and other BTC treasury companies from the index $MSTR
A change in classification standards could cause about $11.6 billion in passive holdings to lose buyers.
▪️ MSCI excludes companies classified as non-operating businesses from the global equity benchmark index under the new framework
▪️ The new framework takes effect after market close on November 30 and will be implemented in the index review in November 2026
▪️ Screening is based on operating assets and five financial ratios
▪️ Market estimates passive funds may be forced to sell about 13 million shares, approximately $11.6 billion
▪️ The same list also includes coin-holding companies like Metaplanet
▪️ This decision does not mean immediate removal; MSCI will first conduct financial assessments of constituent stocks
The disagreement is not about whether to remove, but whether the term "non-operating" refers to assets or business.
Index compilation looks at comparable operating indicators—revenue, profit margin, employees, and fixed assets. A company whose main assets are crypto holdings naturally scores low on these indicators. Passive funds mechanically buy according to weight; once the weight drops to zero, there are no buyers; the sellers are index funds, not actively bearish funds.
The direction is to wait and see—only when the November review list is published will it be finalized; until the list is out, selling pressure remains only an estimate."ZEC's Countertrend Surge Feels More Like a Trap"
ZEC surged sharply from 1073 to 1221, making the market quite lively, but I don't believe this is a trend reversal. BTC and ETH are still drifting downwards, yet ZEC is running solo. Such divergence usually isn't a sign of strength but rather intentional.
Looking at the long-short ratio, it's 20% to 80%, with retail traders heavily short. The main players first pull it up a bit; the easiest way is to trigger high-leverage shorts. But if a big move was really coming, why can't it even touch 1250, let alone the previous high of 1253? Above, between 1240 and 1300, there's a pile of previous trapped positions, which requires real money to break through. Now the volume is even smaller than during the decline—what could possibly free it?
Moreover, the expected network upgrade in November has already been priced in, and ETF funds are still flowing out. Pumping before the positive news is often a way to unload. So-called independent rallies usually don't last long in a weak market. Low-volume rebounds, countertrend pumps, and dense shorts look more like textbook bull traps.
One bullish candle won't change beliefs or bring new inflows. Those chasing in might not be boarding but rather taking the bag.

Logic: Blur announced the shutdown of the frontend on November 12, Blend stopped new lending matches. NFT monthly trading volume plummeted from 1.43 billion to less than 7 million. Protocol revenue approaches zero, BLUR has degraded into a zombie governance token lacking value capture. Coupled with token unlocking selling pressure (continuing until 2027), Upbit suspending deposits, related Blast shutdown, heavy selling pressure above 0.01219, liquidity dried up causing a downward trend reversal. 20x leverage short at the top, odds and risk control need to be balanced.

Finally, someone bought into the L2 sector!
$ARB rebounded to around $0.20 today, rising more than 16% in 24 hours, showing a very strong performance.
Recently, there have been several notable developments in Arbitrum.
First, the USDG stablecoin has been natively deployed on Arbitrum, and DeFi protocols like Fluid, Morpho, and GMX have started supporting it.
Second, Arbitrum is attracting more capital and applications into its ecosystem through a stablecoin incentive program.
This could help increase usage on the Arbitrum network.
However, one thing to distinguish: the development of the Arbitrum ecosystem does not necessarily mean the ARB token will benefit simultaneously.
ARB currently mainly serves governance functions, and the value transmission between network revenue and token holders remains a market consideration.
In the short term, $0.20 has been reclaimed.
If it can maintain above this level going forward, I will continue to watch the performance around $0.22 #特斯拉交付超预期后盈利修复成焦点
The boss has something to say
Tesla released its Q3 earnings after the market closed on October 21. Deliveries reached 486,500 vehicles, exceeding market expectations, but still down 2.1% year-over-year.
The market bets the probability of earnings beating expectations at 78%, but I don’t focus on deliveries, I look at gross margin. High-margin US cars are declining, while the share of low-margin Chinese cars is rising, putting pressure on overall vehicle gross margin. Deliveries beating expectations does not equal earnings beating expectations. The price war is still ongoing; whether cash flow can improve is the key.
If gross margin continues to be pressured, Tesla’s stock price will fall, tech stock sentiment will cool down, and BTC will be indirectly affected. If gross margin recovers, combined with new progress in Robotaxi or Optimus, risk appetite will warm up, which is mildly positive for crypto. But Tesla is not a crypto asset; it cannot change BTC’s direction.
The main conflict for BTC remains CPI and US Treasury yields. September CPI was 3.7% year-over-year, core CPI 2.6%, inflation has risen for three consecutive months, and rate hike expectations are heating up. The 30-year US Treasury yield is 5.7%, and high interest rates are weighing on risk assets. After closing my 81,500 short position and catching a wave, BTC rebounded strongly; I am now out of position.
Resistance above is seen between 84,000 and 85,000; support below is at 80,000. Holding 82,000 means consolidation; breaking below 80,000 suggests a deeper pullback. Do not chase the rally or sell into the dip. Wait for a pullback near 80,000 to see if it holds; if volume shrinks and it doesn’t break, lightly try going long with a stop loss at 79,000.
Tesla’s earnings report is an industry validation, not a directional switch. $BTC $ETH $ZEC Just chatting a bit about tonight's market
The data is no longer repetitive, CPI and PPI both exploded, and CME's year-end rate hike probability has shot up to 96%.
$BTC is hovering around 82000, actually broke 80,000 early this morning, dipped to 79,800 at the lowest, then pulled back. It looks like it held, but since this level has been tested once, I'm not confident.
$ETH bounced from 2325 to 2463, about six or seven percent, with little volume increase. I placed a short position at 2463, now it's grinding near the cost, no panic. There's a moving average resistance between 2490 and 2500 above, whether it can bounce up there, I have a clear idea.
$SOL is hovering around 105, weaker than both BTC and ETH; if the market crashes again, it will definitely be the fastest to fall.
My view is simple: don't mistake this rebound for a reversal. With rate hikes priced in at nearly 96%, the bulls really don't have the strength; the rebound is just setting up positions for shorts. I've already entered my first short position; if 2400 breaks, I'll look down to 2374. Only if it truly holds above 2500 will I acknowledge it. The storage sector is still taking hits tonight, with only the landlord not falling but rising
$SNDK 1364, hammered down 4 points again from 1430 💀
SanDisk is one of the hardest hit in storage this round. Since the news of China Changxin's DRAM breakthrough came out, the market has been selling. Can SanDisk's own storage business maintain high growth? The earnings report hasn't come out yet, so the funds are running first. The 1364 level has already retraced quite a bit from the high, but buyers are still hesitating.
$xMU 913, Micron is a bit tougher than SanDisk but didn't escape either 🏭
Slid from 935 to 913, down 1.8 points. Can HBM4 push SK Hynix's profits to new highs again? The whole storage sector is selling first and asking questions later. Micron has a layout in HBM, but short-term panic over competition in China outweighs the long-term logic. 913 is not far from the previous low.
$SLX 0.05194, manufacturing side crashes but it actually turned green 🏚️
Wafer fab leasing and storage chip manufacturing are two different things. Long-term leases are locked in, rent is collected regardless of chip price fluctuations. Changxin's breakthrough affects manufacturing profit margins, but the landlord on the leasing side has become a safe haven. SLX turning green on a night when storage collectively crashes shows that funds can distinguish.

#韩股修复反弹，外资卖压能否缓解？ #特斯拉交付超预期后盈利修复成焦点
📉 A preliminary forecast for Tesla's Q3 earnings: I'm not very optimistic about it beating expectations this time.
First, looking at delivery data, Tesla delivered 486,532 vehicles in Q3, which is higher than market expectations but still a 2.1% year-over-year decline.
I think the most important thing here is not how many cars were sold, but how much profit these sales will ultimately generate.
In Q2, Tesla's automotive business gross margin excluding regulatory credits was only 16.3%. With price competition not fully easing, a rebound in sales does not necessarily mean profitability will recover as well.
So my judgment is: revenue might not be too bad, but EPS and profit margins may not surprise the market.
Stories like AI and Robotaxi do have imaginative potential, but how much of that is already priced into the stock? If actual performance falls short, relying solely on future narratives will likely struggle to sustain the valuation.
This time, I choose to be cautiously bearish and don't really believe Tesla can deliver a fully better-than-expected earnings report.
Of course, the market always has surprises; let's wait for the data to come in.
Do you think Tesla can prove the bears wrong this time?👀 Regulatory focus is shifting towards on-chain institutions rather than public chains. The statement from the founder of Hyperliquid indicates that future compliance pressure will fall on the operating entities, which is not a bad thing for CEXs and on-chain derivatives.
At TOKEN2049, Ourbit launched SuperCEX, and the Hong Kong Carnival is scheduled for next April. Institutional funds have not fully entered the market yet.
On the TIA side, 0.705 just swept a batch of short positions. The short-term EMA is upward, but the dense liquidation zone is between 0.72 and 0.73, with trapped positions weighing down.
The current price is 0.6993; I won’t chase the highs and will wait for a pullback to 0.686–0.692 before going long.
I just climbed to the sixth floor after closing a trade, still catching my breath when my phone rang and I immediately checked the market.
Set defensive stop loss at 0.677, take profit first at 0.718, and if it breaks through, then look at 0.728.

#美国CPI与PPI双超预期，年内能否再加息？
@OKX星球 #AnthropicIPO估值预期降至1.5万亿 $ANTHROPIC
The valuation estimate has dropped from about 2 trillion to about 1.5 trillion, cutting off a portion equivalent to roughly 30 times its quarterly revenue.
▪️ Some investors discussed a valuation of about 1.5 trillion USD at the 10/15 investor day
▪️ Previous expectations for the November issuance were about 2 trillion USD
▪️ Q3 revenue was 16.8 billion USD, achieving profitability on an adjusted basis
▪️ Q1 revenue was 11.6 billion, more than doubled in Q2, with growth slowing in Q3
▪️ The issuance plan remains in November, with the exact date undecided
▪️ OpenAI's IPO plan is scheduled for next year
The disagreement is not about whether 1.5 trillion is expensive, but whether the "downward adjustment" changes the valuation or the growth rate.
Primary market valuation is determined by the most recent transaction price or investor quotes, while the secondary market focuses on the slope of growth. Revenue growth slowing from doubling to deceleration changes the latter assumption, not the already realized 16.8 billion. The downward shift in quotes precedes the issuance pricing, reflecting the multiples buyers are willing to pay.
The direction is to wait and see — the official pricing range announcement will be the final confirmation; if growth slows another notch, 1.5 trillion may not be the bottom.#美国CPI与PPI双超预期，年内能否再加息？
$SNDK US stock pre-market analysis: Will SanDisk rise back to 1400 tonight or fall back to the bottom?
Market sentiment is mostly bullish; many believe that the rebound from 1278 to 1360 signals a reversal and market recovery, so they are entering long positions. Binance's long-short ratio is already over 4, but has the situation really reversed?
Some analyses clearly point out that after SanDisk rebounded from 1278 to around 1400, it never effectively broke through the key resistance level. This kind of rebound after a decline looks more like a correction within a bearish trend rather than a reversal. 1400 is a very strong resistance level because during the previous three attempts to reach 1800 and 1900, the price consolidated sideways in this area for a long time. After breaking down, support turned into resistance, making it very difficult to climb back up.
Looking at other struggling stocks in the storage sector, Hynix has already dropped to 953, nearly catching up to SanDisk's stock price, which was 1234 on October 12. If you consider SanDisk as the "big cake," then Hynix is at least a SOL, right? In the same sector, it's impossible for you to fall while I rise if not for you falling less. The news is also completely unfavorable. It’s easy to imagine how many SanDisk long positions will be trapped tonight.Tesla surged today, but Dogecoin got criticized again. Its performance is far behind privacy coin ZEC and dark horse INJ.
$DOGE is the clone of clones; without Musk, it's nothing. It dropped 1.5% today and 2.4% this week. Trading volume is 3.8 times the usual, with 170 million U turnover in one day.
Those who bought in six months ago are still down 30%. Although it has passed its steepest drop, it’s not cheap enough yet and not at a starting point.
$ZEC rose 4.09% today, the only one with real catalysts. Yesterday, 17.9 million USD long positions were liquidated, and today it climbed back from 1100, with funding fees +32.95%. The lead is testing the network evaluation on 10/20; if it passes, the mainnet activation NU7 is set for November 5.
$INJ is today’s dark horse, up 14.69%, the strongest. The IIP-709 Gas fee vote ends on October 17, Gulf Labs joined as a validator, and Staked ETF is under SEC review. But it has already surged from 8.35 to the 9.5 resistance level; chasing higher is catching the last baton.
DOGE is just rotating in place, ZEC is betting on an upgrade, INJ is betting on institutions, and the stories of the first two are not over yet. #奈飞增长或放缓，广告业务成新看点 However, the current dosage of advertising is still too small—even if it meets the target, it only accounts for about 6% of total revenue, and the per-user revenue from ad-supported plans is still lower than that of standard plans. The key point to watch is whether advertising can truly increase the per-user value before subscription growth stalls.#交易之声：你的经验值得被听到
Q: Before getting back in, which confirmation signal do you value the most?
It depends on the coin. For mainstream coins like $BTC and $ETH, the first consideration is technical signals combined with macro factors. For example, the rallies of ETH and BTC in late August.
Secondly, at present, if liquidity tightens and market expectations worsen, as long as key support levels for BTC and ETH like 78000 and 2280 are not broken, the pullbacks are relatively more of a phased "opportunity."
Thirdly, for project-backed coins, more attention is paid to valuation bottoms and macro factors. For example, some mainstream coins like $HYPE, which have relatively low valuations plus project support, won’t experience the slow, long-term downturn typical of ordinary altcoins. The lower valuation and "project sustainability" also influence holders’ mentality differently, waiting for "value to return."
For altcoins, more focus is on community enthusiasm and the strength of rallies, concentration of holdings, and whether KOLs bought in early. Lab is impressive in this regard, and KOL buying has sparked some discussion. Coins similar to Lab, rave, etc.
