This week is not just about the Federal Reserve and CLARITY—the Bank of Japan is also set to take action. According to Reuters and Japanese media: The Bank of Japan will hold its policy meeting on September 17–18, with the market almost fully pricing in a 25 basis point rate hike. The policy rate is expected to rise to about 1.25%, marking the highest level in approximately 31 years (the last time it was at a similar level was around April 1995). It has been only about three months since the last rate hike in June, indicating a noticeably accelerated tightening pace. Yen carry trades are under pressure: the yen has surged sharply over the past week, approaching multi-month highs. If Kazuo Ueda signals a hawkish stance after the meeting, carry trade unwinding could continue to drain global risk asset liquidity. Historically, when the Bank of Japan surprises with a hawkish stance, risk assets like BTC often take an initial hit. Combined with tomorrow’s Senate CLARITY cloture vote in the U.S. East Coast (requiring 60 votes) and Wednesday’s FOMC meeting (FedWatch pricing about an 86% chance of a rate hike), this week is a dense window of "three central banks + legislation." BTC remains grinding in the roughly 76,000–78,000 range. Don’t just focus on Washington—Tokyo is also pricing in changes. #本周FOMC揭晓,加息能否落地? #特朗普接受新版伦理条款,CLARITY投票临近 $BTC $ETH Macro + technical dual-dimension analysis, 90% rate hike expectation, gold and BTC rise against the trend, key price levels marked #本周FOMC揭晓,加息能否落地? The probability of a Fed rate hike in September has risen to 90%. Under the traditional trading framework, high rate hike expectations suppress non-interest-bearing assets. However, this round, gold and BTC have risen against the trend. The core driver is not risk-averse buying but the front-loaded pricing of expectations and the decline in real interest rates. The 90-day correlation between BTC and gold has reached a six-year high. Both trade in sync with currency depreciation expectations, showing significantly enhanced linkage. 🔹 Macro logic review 1. Front-loaded pricing of expectations: Before the CPI release, the market had already priced in the rate hike expectation, causing a round of decline in assets like gold. After the inflation data is released, the rising rate hike probability is a realization of expectations, forming a bullish effect after the bearish sentiment is exhausted. 2. Decline in real interest rates: Inflation expectations rise, while nominal rates slightly fall after bearish realization. Real interest rates (nominal rates − inflation expectations) decline, benefiting non-interest-bearing assets like gold and BTC. 🔹 Key technical levels $BTC Short-term support: 77000; core defense 76000; extreme dip 73500 Resistance: 80000 (first resistance); 82000–83000 strong resistance zone, with trapped positions concentrated. A breakout without volume is considered a false breakout. $ETH Support: 2500; strong support 2430, effective break opens downside space to 2100 Resistance: 2660–2700, if volume is insufficient in this range, there is a high risk of a pullback after a rally. The main theme of this rally is the market pricing in the Fed's difficulty in quickly suppressing inflation, with BTC and gold strengthening synchronously as macro hedges. Continuation premise: sustained decline in real interest rates and inflation expectations remaining high. Turning point risk: once real interest rates rise again, gold and BTC will face synchronized pressure and correction.16.5% vs 12.7%, two assets in the same market are moving in opposite directions. The proportion of $BTC left on exchanges has basically remained unchanged, while $ETH is steadily flowing out. If this is a collective choice by long-term holders, then the $ETH available for immediate sale on exchanges is decreasing. The source of selling pressure will shift from spot markets to elsewhere, making prices more sensitive to large sell orders. A more likely explanation is that some people are moving $ETH to staking or self-custody rather than preparing to sell, though there is no direct evidence for this yet. Next, watch whether the $ETH balance on exchanges continues to decline while the price does not rise. If the balance rebounds, this tightening judgment will be overturned. #BTC现货ETF三日流出近4.5亿美元 #伊朗允许BTC与USDT外贸结算 #交易之声:你的经验值得被听到 $BTC $ETH The Eve of the BTCFi Narrative Explosion: 5 CORE On-Chain Protocols Worth Adding to Your Watchlist ⚠️ This article is purely an on-chain logic popular science review and does not constitute any investment advice. BTCFi is recognized as the main theme of this bull market cycle, but most people only focus on the CORE native token, overlooking opportunities in ecosystem protocols. On the eve of the sector's explosion, capital will first settle in the infrastructure layer. When selecting ecosystem projects, don't just look at APY levels; prioritize protocols deeply tied to lstBTC, with real TVL and complete audits. The following 5 CORE native projects can be placed in a long-term watchlist to continuously track on-chain data. 1. Colend | Core Ecosystem Lending Protocol Colend is the native lending market with the highest TVL in the CORE ecosystem and the core hub for lstBTC capital flow. Users can deposit lstBTC, coreBTC, SolvBTC, and other BTC derivative assets as collateral to borrow. Once institutional-scale lstBTC minting occurs, a large influx of BTC assets will enter the ecosystem, making lending a necessary service. The protocol can continuously capture lending fees. It acts as the ecosystem's capital reservoir; most BTC liquid staking assets eventually flow into the lending market. Risks: A sharp BTC market drop could trigger liquidation risks; the business heavily depends on lstBTC adoption progress. 2. Solv Protocol | BTC Liquid Staking Infrastructure Solv is a leading project in the BTC liquid staking sector, launching SolvBTC.CORE on the CORE chain, complementing lstBTC. Users stake BTC to mint liquid certificates, which can be used as collateral to earn interest in protocols like Colend, creating a complete "staking-liquidity-lending" loop. Multiple top institutions have invested. Core problem solved: BTC staking loses liquidity, but Solv's certificates allow users to retain underlying BTC ownership while continuing to participate in DeFi. Risks: The product is early-stage; large-scale institutional adoption still requires time. 3. Pell Network | BTC Re-Staking Protocol Pell is CORE chain's flagship BTC re-staking project, layering re-staking on top of native BTC staking to amplify asset yields and provide security endorsement for on-chain applications. It perfectly fits the Satoshi Plus hybrid consensus narrative and has high institutional research interest. Re-staking is a highly elastic branch of the BTCFi sector; once the sector heats up, these protocols attract strong capital. Risks: Multi-layer contract stacking increases security complexity; black swan risks are higher than ordinary lending protocols. 4. AMP | Official Strategic Asset Management Protocol AMP is one of CORE's three core products, an on-chain intelligent asset management tool offering BTC stakers one-click strategy portfolios that automatically complete staking, hedging, and arbitrage to improve overall yields. The protocol charges strategy management fees and plans to use fees to buy back CORE tokens, forming a key part of the ecosystem's self-sustaining flywheel with official ecosystem resource support. Risks: The product is still iterating; large-scale real user and fee flow validation is pending; strategies may suffer drawdowns in extreme markets. 5. Glyph Exchange (Molten Finance) | BTC Inscription & LST Asset DEX Glyph will merge with Bitflux to upgrade into Molten Finance, a native exchange on CORE chain dedicated to BRC20, Runes inscriptions, and BTC liquid staking assets. Unlike general DEXs focusing on universal token trading, it specializes in Bitcoin-related assets, supporting inscription asset trading and LST swaps. If the Bitcoin inscription market warms up again, trading fees will be directly realized. Risks: Trading volume heavily depends on inscription sector popularity; liquidity shrinks rapidly during market downturns. Watchlist Usage Principles: Track Only, No Blind Heavy Positions Adding to the watchlist does not mean immediate buying. Ecosystem projects carry much higher risks than the CORE token; 80% of ecosystem projects eventually fail. Focus on these 3 indicators: 1. TVL growth comes from real asset deposits, not short-term mining incentives to inflate volume; 2. Protocol generates sustainable fees, not relying on token inflation subsidies; 3. Business is deeply tied to lstBTC and native BTC assets, not simple multi-chain copy projects. Remove from the watchlist immediately if contract vulnerabilities, cliff TVL drops, or incentive stops occur. Infrastructure security does not guarantee ecosystem application contract safety; the 8.31 vulnerability was a market lesson. Summary The BTCFi market has not fully exploded yet; now is the window to pre-select quality infrastructure. Colend, Solv, Pell, AMP, and Molten cover lending, liquid staking, re-staking, asset management, and trading respectively, forming a complete BTC financial Lego in the CORE ecosystem. When the sector's bull run arrives, ecosystem protocols often have greater elasticity than the native token but also multiply risks. Use small positions to test, continuously monitor on-chain data, and don't be fooled by short-term high APYs. 💬 Interactive Question: Among these 5 protocols, which do you think will be the first to generate stable fee income? Share your thoughts in the comments!🔥 $BTC / $ETH / $SOL | THREE DIFFERENT DEMANDS $BTC attracts demand from people who want monetary exposure. $ETH attracts demand from people who need economic infrastructure. $SOL attracts demand from people who want high-frequency on-chain execution. Different users. Different reasons to hold. Different paths to value. 🧠⚡ #SeptHikeOddsHit90% #BTCSpotETF450MOutflow9.14 Afternoon Market Review The market is diverging, with the FOMC meeting approaching. Interest rate hike expectations are suppressing the market, and sentiment-driven themes are entering a realization phase. $FLOCK: A sentiment barometer, its heat is rapidly fading. The market has shifted from bullish to bearish multiple times. The meme rally relies entirely on capital enthusiasm; as the heat fades, funds quickly withdraw. BTC: Trading in a range with weak buying support. As the market anchor, support levels are crucial. ETH: Moves in tandem with the market, showing some resistance to decline but lacking independent upward momentum. ZEC: Previously surged due to ETF narrative, with positive factors fully priced in. Bulls are taking profits, causing market pressure and a pullback. The tail-end rally risk is increasing. Summary: Some contracts in the market have shifted from bullish to bearish. Mainstream assets are consolidating, while high-level themes and meme tokens are starting to realize gains and pull back. Ahead of the FOMC meeting, competition intensifies. Contracts must reduce leverage and beware of sharp spikes causing double losses. Do you think meme tokens will still have pulse rallies before the rate decision meeting? 👇Lisk's business executive said BTC exchanges account for 16.5%, while ETH has dropped below 12.7%, nearly 4 points behind. I stared at this set of numbers for a while and didn't find it anything new. ETH has been moving on-chain, staking, and various encapsulations for years. The exchange balance ratio has been declining, rebounding a few times in the middle, and eventually falling again. What really exhausts me is that every time I see this kind of "structural tightening," I instinctively take it as good news. But after several rounds of positioning, the price stays sideways or falls. Less supply just means less supply, but it doesn't mean buying will come. So now, I just treat this kind of data as background noise, not as signals. After ETH exchange share dropped below 12.7%, do you think the tokens are locked in, or just lying in a new place? #BTC现货ETF三日流出近4 50 million USD #伊朗允许BTC与USDT外贸结算 #交易之声: Your experience deserves to be heard $BTC $ETH Term Structure Radar $BTC annualized pricing at three expiration points is not unidirectional: the near, mid, and far-term annualized basis are +7.00%/+5.00%/+5.08% respectively; the near-term contract's raw spread relative to the index is +$163.4. $ETH annualized basis decreases with expiration term: near, mid, and far-term annualized basis are +6.43%/+4.35%/+4.18% respectively; the near-term contract's raw spread relative to the index is +$4.86. The near-term annualized basis is higher than the far-term, with higher annualized pricing concentrated near term. $SOL annualized pricing at three expiration points is not unidirectional: near, mid, and far-term annualized basis are +7.55%/+1.57%/+1.87% respectively; the near-term contract's raw spread relative to the index is +$0.23. BTC, SOL: The mid-term expiration breaks the monotonic arrangement; the difference between near and far terms is insufficient to describe the entire curve. BTC, ETH, SOL: All three expiration points are in contango.$ZEC still doesn’t have the support of timing, structure, or positioning. That underwater move finally arrived. ZEC was slammed from the highs and briefly touched around $1,040 before bouncing. A lot of traders probably thought that was the bottom. But personally, I’m not convinced. In fact, this rebound is exactly what I would expect after a sharp flush. Why? Because the market needs to create the illusion that $1,040 is an untouchable floor. Once retail traders start thinking, “It already cras$BTC Clear Bill Must-Read Many retail investors have a misconception: they think that the passing of the US Clear Bill = positive news landing = Bitcoin will surge directly First: The market has already priced in the positive news in advance (buy the expectation, sell the fact) The capital market is always like this: it rallies ahead of the expected arrival, and sells off once the fact lands Everyone is waiting for the bill to be passed, waiting for institutions to enter, waiting for regulatory compliance, so funds have already positioned and pushed up the market in advance Once the bill is truly passed, it means there is no new story to hype, all the positives are fully realized, and the main funds in the market have no reason to continue pushing prices up; they will just take advantage of the overall bullish sentiment to sell off at the high point Second: Passing the bill does not mean an immediate bull market; on the contrary, it means regulatory shackles are in place The so-called compliance benefits are just self-comfort for retail investors; for the main players, it means uncertainty is removed and they can safely exit their positions Third: The market structure itself is a rebound trap, not a main upward wave This rebound from the low point, I define throughout as a corrective rebound, not the start of a new bull market The extreme resistance of this rebound is around 81000, which is also where I plan to fully take profit on long positions and heavily open shorts 🔥 $BTC / $ETH / $SOL | THREE DIFFERENT JOBS $BTC is where capital seeks certainty. $ETH is where capital becomes programmable. $SOL is where capital moves at speed.

The data looks like this: ETH continues to flow out of exchanges, BTC basically unchanged. A difference of nearly 4 percentage points. What is he betting on: project teams love to talk about "structural tightening," which sounds like good news. But the ETH flowing out of exchanges—did it go into cold wallets or was it dumped on-chain? No one says. Fewer coins on exchanges doesn't mean no one is selling, it just means selling has moved elsewhere. So the question is, are these 4 percentage points hoarding or arbitrage? #BTC现货ETF三日流出近4.5亿美元 #伊朗允许BTC与USDT外贸结算 #交易之声:你的经验值得被听到 $ETH $BTC 🔥 $BTC / $ETH / $SOL | THREE DIFFERENT FORMS OF VALUE $BTC captures monetary value. $ETH captures economic activity. $SOL captures transactional velocity.

Last glance before sleep last night, SNOW rebounded quite happily, but I saw the sell orders pressing down, every time it surged there was a hand pushing it down. At that moment, I judged this wave to be a heavy bull trap, decisively placed a short at 378.04. Woke up this morning and opened my phone, hey, 329.00 was even more obedient than I expected, going straight down without looking back, +325.49% secured steadily. This is the feeling of hitting the rhythm right, the endurance was not in vain. Took profits on 70% first, holding 30% to watch the show, set a cost price protection, let it do whatever it wants. A short phrase for you: Don't lose patience in the choppy market, then try to regain dignity in a one-sided move. There will be more opportunities later, but don't rush, the market is not short of opportunities, it lacks patience. If you miss this wave, you miss it, I will call the next shot in advance, waiting for good news. ### $ADA $SNDK The account numbers have increased, but I haven't done anything. Is this reasonable? When the market was just crashing in the morning session, $SUSHI volume didn't keep up, and no one caught the rise. I judged that the bears still had a chance and suggested a short position around 0.2401, with the rebound being an opportunity. Now the price is at 0.2197, the short position is +426.9%, feeling good brothers, this profit was worth the wait. The previous fluctuations were annoying, but after breaking out, it really feels great. Panic comes from having no plan, losses come from overthinking. Don't lose patience in the fluctuations and then try to regain dignity in a one-sided market. Take 80% off first, set a good stop-loss for the remaining 20%, if it continues to fall, let it run; if it rebounds, don't give back profits. Don't be greedy for the last bit, and don't give back the profits you've made. Take profits when you should, don't let gains become uncomfortable. There are still opportunities, don't rush, wait quietly for good news. Now chasing shorts is not cost-effective, wait for the next signal. For friends who haven't entered yet, listen to me, now is not the time to rush. $DOGE $SOL $BR broke past the previous high, what is being speculated on💥 The core of BR's recent rise is still speculation on the $BTC Fi narrative. What Bedrock is doing is simple: turning BTC from a "lying idle" asset into one that can be used in DeFi to earn yields. However, it's worth mentioning that on September 20th, about 40.63 million tokens will be unlocked, accounting for 18.68% of the circulating supply. Normally, unlocking is bearish. I think the rise before unlocking means the market is betting that the unlock won't have an impact, betting on the bearish news being priced in. This proportion is indeed not small, short-term selling pressure cannot be ignored. I think with strong long sentiment, there might be an upward breakout, enticing more buying and chasing the rally. But as the unlock approaches, profit-taking might cause a sell-off. Currently, it has reclaimed 0.42 with capital inflow, longs can continue to hold #Anthropic拟赴纳斯达克IPO From the 15-minute chart of Bitcoin, after a surge, it has been consolidating with small-bodied candles, indicating a clear slowdown in short-term momentum. However, the support at the lower level remains intact, and there has been no continuous heavy selling volume during the pullback. This is not a good time to chase longs; waiting for a pullback to a better entry point will be more comfortable. As long as the pullback does not break through the previous launch zone, there is still room for a second upward move.

Just after lunch while watching the market, ATOM pushed up a bit again, but the support was clearly insufficient, volume couldn't keep up, and it felt like a heavy bull trap. I suggested shorting at 1.647, and someone asked if it would break through. I said every surge runs out of breath, no one is there to catch it at the top. It really softened afterward. At 1.579, with +206.43% profit realized, those on board must have woken up smiling. The earlier hesitation was real, but the outcome is truly sweet. Take 80% off the table first, move the stop loss to the cost price for the remaining 20%, don't be greedy for the last bit. Panic comes from no plan, losses come from overthinking. Now is not the time to rush; wait for the new structure to emerge. The market isn't short on opportunities, it's short on patience. $ETH $SOL AI安全担忧把科技股砸了一遍,纳指承压,原油又冲到107美元附近。按以前的剧本,比特币大概率也得跟着挨一顿。但这次没有,BTC反而回到7.7万美元附近。 这不代表比特币突然脱离了宏观,也不代表牛市已经重新启动。更像是市场开始重新给它定价:科技股的AI估值是一回事,比特币自己的资金逻辑是另一回事。能在这种环境里扛住,至少说明它没以前那么容易被一锅端。 真正麻烦的还是美联储。8月CPI偏热,Warsh偏好的通胀指标却没那么吓人,市场对加息的押注已经很高。 如果这次真的加息,短线流动性肯定不好受。BTC能不能继续往上,得看它能不能扛住美元和利率这两把刀。 还有一件事:CLARITY Act。参议院复工后,法案仍卡在利益分歧里,投票结果远没到可以提前庆祝的时候。 所以我现在更愿意把7.7万附近看成一个观察区,而不是“牛回速归”的发车点。能守住,说明市场还有底气;真要突破8万,还得看资金愿不愿意继续追。 你觉得这轮BTC不跟科技股一起跌,是资金开始切换逻辑,还是暂时的独立行情?There is nearly 4 percentage points more $BTC than $ETH in exchanges Leon Waidmann reported two figures. $BTC accounts for 16.5% on exchanges, while $ETH has dropped below 12.7%. How is this calculated: The numerator is the coins held in exchange addresses. The denominator is the total circulating supply of the coin. Dividing the two gives the proportion. What does this mean: The declining $ETH proportion indicates coins are leaving exchanges. With fewer coins withdrawable, the available supply on exchanges thins out. If counterparties want to dump, their chips aren’t thick enough. At the same time, $BTC’s proportion barely moved. Some are moving out, some are staying put. The difference isn’t in price, but in who still holds the coins. When these holders turn to buy again, how thick will the sell orders still be? #BTC现货ETF三日流出近4.5亿美元 #伊朗允许BTC与USDT外贸结算 #交易之声:你的经验值得被听到 $BTC $ETH Is anyone looking to bottom-fish coins with real buyback income during this pullback? 1. pons Currently firmly sitting as the number one launchpad on Robinhood, and the buybacks are real, having dropped from a peak of 1 billion to 500 million. The reason to be optimistic is that if you believe memes will still mainly happen on Robinhood in the future + there is a market trend, betting on pons might be the best choice? But one downside is the relatively low odds. At this price, you can't really build a large position. 2. stonk A Solana launchpad supported by ray, launched to compete with pump, and the data is quite strong, peaking at 300 million, currently at 200 million. When stonk's data was good a few days ago, it even surpassed pons. bonkguy recently hyped another called ember, peaking at 50 million, now at 30 million. Not sure about its background. My core concern is that competition among Solana launchpads will be even fiercer. Pump is still the undisputed number one dragon, with a market cap of 3 to 4 billion. I think unless you truly believe stonk can flap pump (really believe this), it's hard to buy large positions at the 200-300 million price range.The macro window is about to open, but the market is quietly shifting gears. Do you feel the order of strength and weakness is changing? Let's define the rhythm first: now is not a rally chase, but more like high-level buying and sector gambling. BTC has fallen back to the lower edge of the range, and altcoins have started defending separately. From yesterday to this morning, BTC fell below 77,000 and returned to the bottom of the range, with net inflows from exchanges being relatively high, some whales shifting to partial distribution, and ETFs experiencing net outflows for three consecutive days. Above, 77,100 to 80,200 remains a supply wall, with about 539,000 tokens held by long-term holders this year. The price is below the wall; a 77,000 rebound only counts as a stabilization, not a breakout. Support is at 7.5 to 7.6; holding 76,000 will still be a consolidation bottom structure, with rebound resistance between 77,800 and 78,300. ETH is more obvious, following BTC into defensive in the short term. Today is not a buying opportunity; a pullback at 2450 is worth watching for support. If 2360 falls, the rotation narrative will need to pause first. Support is from 2450 to 2425, 2360 to 2350, resistance at 2508 to 2524, 2544 to 2564. Its current role is not to lead the rally but to buffer sentiment. SOL has temporarily lost the psychological level of 100, with support at 97.5 to 98, 95, 90 to 92.5, and resistance near 100 to 101.5, 105 to 107, and 110 near the 200-week moving average.

This week isn't a "rate cut party," it's more like a "scythe testing the sound." August PPI year-on-year at 5.4%, CPI month-on-month at 0.4%, inflation hasn't bowed out at all. The White House is calling for low rates, Trump is pressuring too, but with core inflation this stubborn, will the Fed really obey? Independence isn't just for show. Even Goldman Sachs has shifted from "wait and see" to "possible rate hike"—when big money changes direction, the market vibe changes. What does the crypto world fear most? Not the news itself, but the false hope before the news. BTC and ETH are slightly in the green now, looking stable, but it's like a hunter's silence before pulling the trigger. If a 25 basis point hike really happens in the early hours of September 17, short-term panic spikes will hit, and high-leverage longs will be the first fuel. My stance: I don't bet on the low probability of "no change." Before the decision, heavy longs and high leverage should reduce positions, ease pressure, and hold U. When the boot drops, whether it's all bad news priced in or the sell-off continues, it's not too late to re-enter and pick up chips. Remember: Making money once in a bull market isn't hard; the challenge is still being at the table after every storm. (Personal opinion, not investment advice) #Anthropic拟赴纳斯达克IPO #特朗普接受新版伦理条款,CLARITY投票临近 The BTCFi boom is here—why do I say the CORE ecosystem has more meat than bones? ⚠️ This article is only a popular science review of on-chain logic and does not constitute any investment advice. In this bull market cycle, the BTCFi mainline is becoming clearer and clearer, and many people's eyes are fixed on the $CORE main token. However, many professional funds have a completely different view: the CORE main token is the skeleton, and the real meat is hidden in the ecosystem application layer. It's not that the main token has no opportunity, but the ecosystem protocols are the direct beneficiaries of the sector's dividends. Of course, the meat is also surrounded by hard bones; choosing the right target means eating meat, choosing the wrong one will only lead to bruises and bloodshed. 1. Why the ecosystem's profit logic is more direct than the main token's The underlying value of CORE is the native BTC non-custodial staking infrastructure. As lstBTC liquid staking certificates gradually roll out to institutions, a large amount of dormant BTC assets will enter the ecosystem. Once funds enter, there will naturally be demand for lending, trading, and asset management. The CORE main token is more a tool for consensus, governance, and amplifying returns through dual staking. To capture on-chain fee dividends, ecosystem DeFi protocols are the primary recipients. Users deposit lstBTC to borrow, exchange assets, and execute asset management strategies, and the protocols directly collect fees. Once the ecosystem TVL continues to climb, these protocols' revenues will be directly amplified, serving as the essential gateway for BTCFi capital flow. In the ecosystem, Colend lending, Solv liquid staking, and Glyph inscription DEX are the core building blocks of capital flow. When BTC whales start staking, lending, and hedging on-chain, the first to generate cash flow are not the public chains themselves but these applications. In simple terms: the public chain attracts traffic, the applications collect money. This is the source of the ecosystem's "meat." 2. What in the ecosystem is meat and what is hard-to-chew bone ✅ Quality meat (worth continuous tracking) 1. Native lending protocol Colend: the core pillar of ecosystem TVL. After lstBTC is widely adopted, BTC-collateralized lending demand will explode, making it the hub of ecosystem capital flow. 2. Solv liquid staking support: deeply linked with lstBTC, creating BTC asset fragmentation and yield strategies, a core supporting protocol for institutional capital entry. 3. AMP asset management protocol: one of the official three engines, providing one-click strategies for staked BTC, collecting management fees, with strong potential for future fee buybacks. 4. Glyph Exchange: focuses on BTC inscriptions and BRC20 asset trading, meeting the cross-chain trading demand for Bitcoin inscription assets, with clear differentiation advantages. 🦴 Hard bones (avoid as much as possible, extremely high risk) Various unaudited, zero real TVL, purely incentive-mined dog projects. They rely on short-term token subsidies to inflate data, have no real business, and funds run away immediately once incentives end. Weak contract audits make them vulnerable to exploits. Some are multi-chain copycat projects that simply replicate code from other chains without rooting in the CORE ecosystem. When sector heat fades, funds will directly withdraw. 3. Biggest misconception: eating meat in the ecosystem does not mean blindly ambushing Many people think: the BTCFi boom is here, just buy any small ecosystem coin and get rich. There are three risks that cannot be ignored here. First, underlying infrastructure security ≠ ecosystem contract security. The 8.31 vulnerability proved that CORE's underlying BTC staking module is sound, but upper-layer contracts have vulnerability risks. Audits of small and medium ecosystem projects vary, and black swan events are far more likely than with the main token. Second, sector competition and fragmentation. Stacks and Babylon also compete for the native BTC staking market. Even if the BTCFi market explodes, incremental funds may not all flow into the CORE ecosystem, easily causing a divergence where the public chain rises but ecosystem tokens do not. Third, the ecosystem flywheel is still in its early stage. Much of the current ecosystem TVL comes from mining incentives, with real fee volume being small. Many protocols have yet to form stable self-sustaining revenue. Once incentives shrink, on-chain data will quickly decline. 4. How to distinguish real meat from fake meat—focus on 3 indicators 1. TVL growth comes from real asset deposits, not short-term mining incentive volume inflation; 2. Protocol generates continuous fees, not just relying on token issuance subsidies to users; 3. Deeply bound with lstBTC, able to carry native BTC assets, not just ordinary projects migrating from multiple chains. Meeting these three points means the ecosystem has valuable "meat"; relying only on airdrops, points, or hype without real capital accumulation is hard-to-chew bone. Summary Under the BTCFi boom, the logic of the CORE ecosystem is very clear: the main token is the underlying skeleton, and ecosystem DeFi protocols are the value-bearing layer. When sector dividends arrive, ecosystem applications are more likely to capture fee dividends from capital flow, often with greater elasticity. But meat always comes with high risk; not all ecosystem projects can deliver. Don't blindly ambush dog projects; prioritize top native protocols deeply bound with lstBTC, audited, and with real TVL; avoid unaudited, zero-business air projects. The boom is here—choose the right targets to eat meat, choose the wrong ones and you're left with only bones. 💬 Interactive question: In the CORE ecosystem, do you think lending protocols or liquid staking sectors will be the first to generate real cash flow? Let's discuss in the comments!What we really need to watch this week is not candlesticks, but news. 🔴 Monday | Hormuz meeting. Meeting postponed, oil prices are strengthening again, and the geopolitical situation isn't over yet, so inflation expectations won't be quiet 🔴. Tuesday | CLARITY Act + Retail Sales One watches regulation, the other on US consumption. Expectations fluctuate between loosening and tightening, making it easy for funds to switch back and forth. 🔴 Wednesday 02:00 | Fed rate decision Walsh presides over a full rate meeting for the first time; the rate is just the first hurdle; the dot plot and wording are the real show. If rate hike expectations continue to heat up, the pressure on risk assets will not be small. 🔴 Friday | Bank of Japan decision + US stocks are the three witch days. Policy implementation and concentrated expiration are likely to further amplify volatility by the end of the week. BTC is currently around 77,790. In the short term, first look at the resistance zone between 80,000 and 81,700. If it breaks through and holds here, the next phase will have a chance to continue watching 83,600-87,000; Below, focus on the 76,500-77,000 support zone; if it falls, look to 74,000-75,000. This week, news keeps coming one after another; the most likely thing to happen is not one-sided, but a wash before exiting. The more this kind of market situation is, the less you can make decisions based on emotions. You can slow down the direction, but you must clearly understand the position. $BTC $ETH $ZEC #本周FOMC揭晓, can rate hikes be implemented? #Anthropic拟赴纳斯达克IPO #特朗普接受新版伦理条款, the CLARITY vote is approaching $BTC 1) From the weekly K-line perspective, after the market plundered 60, it oscillated around 64 for 6 weeks before pushing up to 80. Currently, it has been oscillating around 76-82 for 3 weeks, waiting to plunder the previous high at 82.85. 2) I think there are 3 scenarios here; 1️⃣ Directly break above and hold at 83, targeting the weekly bearish order block near 92; 2️⃣ Spike to plunder the 83-86 fair value gap, then retest around 80 downward again. 3️⃣ Directly pull back downward here, first testing 70-72, then looking at around 64-67. 3) Two important macro events this week are: Around 2:15 AM on September 16, a clear vote on the termination debate of the "motion to proceed" in the bill. This requires 60 votes to pass. 4) Back to BTC, currently BTC is really strong, still relatively strong in a consolidation phase. After bad news fails to push it down, we need to see if good news can push it up, or if it will continue to break down on bad news. Macro improves + BTC rises → truly strong. Macro improves + BTC does not rise → dangerous. Macro continues to worsen + BTC still holds 75k → very strong. Macro continues to worsen + 75k break/retest fail → weakness finally confirmed, 72 → 70 → 67.$BTC BTC has experienced its third single-block reorganization within four weeks. Many people panic when they see the word "reorganization." Actually, what deserves more attention is another matter. On August 16, block 962,722. On August 24, block 963,853. On September 11, block 966,500. The latest time, SpiderPool and AntPool almost simultaneously mined valid blocks, with the AntPool branch ultimately winning and the SpiderPool block being discarded. Galaxy Research states this is the third single-block reorganization within four weeks. I believe this is not yet a BTC security crisis. It’s more like simultaneous block mining by pools plus network propagation delay. Currently, there is no evidence of a 51% attack, consensus failure, or systemic double-spending. But it reminds everyone of a very real fact: 1 confirmation does not equal final settlement. There are only three signals to truly be wary of: Reorganizations extending from 1 block to 2 or more blocks. Abnormalities starting to occur continuously. Reorganizations being concentrated long-term in the same mining pool. Right now, I will not short BTC because of this. 1 block is just noise. Continuous deep reorganizations are the real risk. I will continue to monitor and provide timely updates!Old coins aren't very lively today, but don't rush to mock them. True rotation often isn't about all surging together, but about who can stand firm first when the market shakes. #TRX, ADA, LTC: Three rhythms at the same table $TRX is around $0.339, with very narrow intraday fluctuations, upper bound at 0.342 and lower bound at 0.338. The signal it gives me isn't a sudden surge, but whether it can slowly grind the oscillation into a step; only if 0.338 holds can we talk about lifting to 0.342. Its slowness might cause missing the first one that doesn't fall. $ADA is about $0.208, it pulled back after touching 0.202 intraday, but a pullback doesn't automatically mean a reversal. Selling pressure near 0.21 remains; it needs continuous trades to eat through it, otherwise it's just turning within the box. $LTC is about $54.4, more active than the other two today. Before passing the gate at 55.1, I won't chase the tail of the acceleration; if 53.3 breaks, prepare for a pullback. Though these three are all called "old coins," their buying pressure is different: TRX is relatively stable, LTC is testing its resilience, ADA still lacks a real breakthrough. I'll first watch if TRX's bottom can keep rising, then see if LTC can actively break the deadlock, leaving ADA for last confirmation. The best scenario isn't three bullish candles all at once, but one breaking through first, the other two pulling back without breaking support before following. Otherwise, so-called old coin rotation is just a few pretty candlesticks.$BTC , $ETH , $SOL — I DON’T BUY ALL THREE FOR THE SAME REASON When the market weakens, $BTC $76.83K holds the foundation. When capital returns, $ETH $2.48K offers expansion. When risk appetite rises, $SOL $99.70 becomes the flexible layer. $BTC is below $78.63K. $ETH holds $2.42K . $SOL remains below $103.95 My view: Prices change, but each position’s role shouldn’t change with every candle. A core portfolio doesn’t need to predict the winner — it needs to prepare for all three scenarios.I don’t like trying to understand the entire crypto market through a single chart. Bitcoin can hold firm while Ethereum trades sideways. Ethereum can suddenly outperform while BTC stays stuck in a range. And when traders become more aggressive, Solana can quickly become the higher-beta focus. That’s why I pay attention to how these three move relative to each other: $BTC → market foundation & liquidity $ETH → ecosystem strength & capital rotation $SOL → higher-beta risk appetite & network activiIt's torturous. The FOMC week market feels like pulling teeth. Watching it hanging there is uncomfortable, but turning it off is even worse. The odds of a rate hike are hanging above 80%, with announcements on the 15th and 16th consecutively. The news comes and goes, and the K-line twists back and forth. You want to stay calm, but your fingers still click open the depth chart, closing and reopening it, as if someone is urging you to take another look. This kind of week isn't meant to prove how steady you are. Check the calendar a couple fewer times before bed, and look at it again when you wake up. That's more human than struggling with every shadow candle at midnight, and it saves some sleep. Anxiety itself doesn't generate alpha; it only consumes attention and temper, and makes you prone to mistakes. The market is naturally wearing, and the FOMC week even more so. Just get through it. Keep your mindset low-key first; on the loud headline days, avoid battling the market until dawn. Waking up to check the calendar once is more worthwhile than enduring the whole night.Yesterday's gainers ranking, today's declining ranking, This has basically become a daily routine for many knockoffs. But $LSK is clearly different. In 30 days, the price once exceeded 1100%. Despite a wave of knockout stocks crashing over the weekend, it managed to pull back. This coin has recently been very skilled at playing the "double kill between long and short" strategies. More importantly, the high hourly rates are now back $BTC Sideways trading + high fees—if you go down hard in this market, it's really tough. The price doesn't drop much, but the funding rate keeps wearing you down, so short positions can easily be dragged down bit by bit. This wave of price increases is mainly driven by speculation about the mainnet delisting and subsequent transformations $ETH But the problem is also obvious— The real launch date is still at the end of October, but the hype has already started early. So I actually think there's still room for volatility going forward, but chasing short positions right now is not a comfortable position. Rather than forcing yourself to leave empty space, It's better to wait for the market to give its own signal. For example: RSI is weakening at high levels, with stagnant price on high volume, bearish divergence, and key support breakdown. Before the signal comes out, don't rush to hit the top just because "the price has risen too much." The most common way to lose money with counterfeits is: You think it's rising wildly, and it can keep going wild. So the current approach is simple: Don't blindly chase long stocks, nor rush to hit the top. Wait for the real short selling signal to act before making a move. The stronger the market, the more patience you need. Truly comfortable short positions are never guessed; they are waited for. #本周FOMC揭晓, can rate hikes be implemented? Yesterday's top gainers, today's top losers, this has basically become the daily routine for many altcoins. But $LSK is obviously different. Its 30-day gain once exceeded 1100%, and while a bunch of altcoins were crashing over the weekend, it actually managed to break out. This coin has recently become quite skilled at playing the "long and short squeeze." More importantly, the high funding rate occurring once every hour has returned. Sideways movement + high funding rate, it's really tough to short in this kind of market. The price doesn't drop much, but the funding rate keeps grinding you down, making it easy for short positions to be slowly killed off. This rally is mainly driven by market speculation about the mainnet delisting and subsequent transformation. But the problem is clear— The actual implementation time is still at the end of October, yet the speculation has already started early. So I actually think there's likely more room for volatility ahead, but shorting now isn't a comfortable position. Instead of forcing a short, it's better to wait for the market to give signals. For example: RSI high-level stagnation, volume stagnation, bearish divergence, key support breakdown. Before these signals appear, don't rush to top out just because "it has risen too much." The most common way altcoins make people lose money is: You think it’s ridiculously high, but it can still get more ridiculous. So the current approach is simple: Don't blindly chase longs, and don't rush to top out. Wait for real short signals before taking action. The stronger the market, the more patience you need. A truly comfortable short position is never guessed, it’s waited for. #本周FOMC揭晓,加息能否落地? #Anthropic拟赴纳斯达克IPO 🔥 $BTC / $ZEC / $TRUMP | THREE DIFFERENT PROBLEMS $BTC tackles monetary debasement offering a scarce digital asset with a fixed issuance schedule and rules that cannot be changed by a single authority $ZEC tackles financial visibility enabling private transfers for users who don’t want every payment detail permanently exposed on a public ledger $TRUMP tackles cultural attention turning political identity and internet-driven communities into a tradable digital asset.#FOMCRateCallThisWeek $ETH $ZEC $BTC are still hovering around 2500, 1100, and 77000 respectively, and after the afternoon, they start to take small steps climbing slowly upward. Especially $ETH and $ZEC, which were in the spotlight recently, occasionally show long upper shadow spikes upward, giving a bit of a sign of revival. As for my own trades, I placed a long $ETH order at 2470 in the morning, but it was stopped out directly at 2460; in the afternoon, I placed a short order at 2530, which was triggered but immediately stopped out, and then the market plunged straight down. This kind of back-and-forth stop hunting is really exhausting and hard to trade. In contrast, small coins $LAB and $ARB plummeted straight down as soon as the hype faded; this rebound had no strength at all. Mainstream coins keep sweeping stops back and forth, so I simply continue shorting these two volatile coins, $LAB and $ARB. At this critical time window of the Federal Reserve meeting, the market is in a state of wanting to fall but not falling, hitting resistance but unable to break through. Is it building momentum for an upward breakout? Or is it just a trap to lure longs and shorts? ⚠️This is just my personal market review and does not constitute investment advice 📌OKB volume still hasn't picked up, no one dares to push above 116, but there's some support around 108. Yesterday opened at 114.1, highest 114.8, lowest 112.1, closed at 112.7. Today opened at 112.7, highest 114.6, lowest 111.7, current price about 114.1. Volume is 3.94 million, far from Friday's 16.93 million. Resistance remains between 114.6–116.0, and it's even stronger around 118. On the downside, watch 111.7 first, if it breaks easily, look towards 108. In the short term, see if 114 can hold. If it doesn't hold, don't chase the current price. For those already holding, watch if the support at 111.7 holds; if not, reduce a bit and wait for volume to return during the European and American sessions before seeing if it can challenge 116 again. $OKB [On the eve of the rate hike, the only all-green market tonight is crypto] Market overview (16:30): · Oil: Brent crude 108.35 +3.58%, Shanghai oil limit up (Saudi pipeline attacked, Strait of Hormuz blocked) · Gold and silver: New York gold -1.26%, silver -2.03% — safe havens down, indicating the fear is not war but interest rates · US pre-market: SOXL -13%, Intel/AMD/Marvell down 5~7%, Apple and Microsoft slightly down · A-shares: ChiNext -1.1% but more stocks rising; Hang Seng +0.45%, Southbound +4.5 billion · Crypto: $BTC 77,713 +1.2%, $ETH +0.6%, $SOL +1.1% Core: 9/17 Fed rate hike 25bp probability 86.5%, two hikes priced in for the year, year-end 4.00-4.25%. Three key moments: ① Tonight 21:30 US market open, will SOX hold -3%? ② Tuesday East US CLARITY Senate vote ③ Thursday 2 AM FOMC — rate hike priced in, variables are dot plot and guidance on the third hike Why crypto is green: vote imminent, market pre-pricing "legitimacy." After the vote, watch for sell the news; if not passed, this 1% premium will be given back. No positions, pure data observation, not investment advice. The surge in crude oil prices is unstoppable! Iran has teamed up with Yemen's Houthi forces to blockade a key shipping route, aiming to choke the lifeline of crude oil circulation and directly cut off transport capacity. Iran plans to finalize new maritime route rules, but Saudi Arabia has outright stated it will neither attend nor cooperate. Amidst the tug-of-war among multiple parties, market concerns over supply continue to intensify, with capital pouring crazily into crude oil. Don't underestimate the market impact brought by geopolitical struggles; this bullish force is coming on strong, targeting the $110 mark! Once the market breaks through in line with the trend, the upside space will open directly—don't blindly try to pick a top against the trend. #本周FOMC揭晓,加息能否落地? #Anthropic拟赴纳斯达克IPO #特朗普接受新版伦理条款,CLARITY投票临近 Recovered it. BTC bounced back from about 76400 to above 77000. ETH also retook around 2500. In the short term, BTC first dropped to around 76400, then recovered to the 77000-77800 corridor; ETH simultaneously retook around 2500. The rebound looks sharp, and market sentiment has eased a bit, as if exhaling the sharp drop's tension. But on the spot ETF side, the ETH channel is still absorbing, while the BTC channel is still releasing. Short-term prices have pulled back somewhat, and the fund flows haven't fully aligned with the spot yet; the two stories remain separate for now. Price moves first, flow follows—this kind of mismatch has been quite common this week. Treat the rebound as a breather for now. When flow and price realign is more worth watching than chasing a single bullish candle, and it also aligns with what this round of structure is indicating. Don't just focus on the rebound magnitude yet.ONE PORTFOLIO, THREE WAYS TO MAKE DECISIONS I used to chase rising coins and sell impulsively when the market reversed. Now I divide my portfolio into three layers: CORE—$BTC ,$ETH : add at support; reduce when long-term structure breaks. TREND—$SOL : add when trend and flows are strong; reduce when support fails. HOT—trading capital: enter only on clear setups; take partial profits at targets. CORE provides stability. TREND drives growth. HOT captures opportunities. Don’t buy from greed or sell panic.DOGE shares some private thoughts: the enthusiasm at 0.088 on Monday was completely missed. Yesterday opened at 0.0851, highest 0.0852, lowest 0.0829, closed at 0.0835. Today opened at 0.0835, highest 0.0847, lowest 0.0819, current price around 0.0843. Volume is still near 17 million, far from Friday's 44.82 million. Resistance is still at 0.0847–0.0852 above, with heavier pressure at 0.0860 and 0.0883. On the downside, watch 0.0819 first; if it breaks, it’s easy to retest 0.0822. Don’t chase 0.0847 in the short term. For those already holding, watch if 0.0819 support holds; if not, reduce a bit. If volume doesn’t come back, consider it data digestion and wait for the European and American sessions to see if it can challenge 0.086 again. $DOGE 🔥 $BTC / $ETH / $SOL | THREE DIFFERENT FORMS OF POWER $BTC derives power from trust in the rules. $ETH derives power from what can be built on the rules. $SOL derives power from how fast those rules can execute.
