🚨 $BTC MAY BE REPEATING A FAMILIAR CYCLE.
Historically, major Bitcoin downtrends have lasted roughly a year before powerful expansions:
🟠 2018–19 → ~2,000% expansion
🟠 2022–23 → ~700% expansion
Now, a similar structure is emerging.
My base case: the current correction could mature around October, but the next expansion needs confirmation—a clean weekly bottom and a break above the downtrend.
History rhymes. It doesn’t guarantee. 👀
$BTC
#BTCGoldCorrelation Currently, $BTC is about $78,500, not far from the previous high of $81,500, but there is a notable change in the market: prices haven't dropped much, but leverage hasn't expanded in tandem. Since August, about $1.44 billion in open interest has been added, but research shows this mainly comes from price revaluation, not massive new positions; After August 21, BTC-denominated open interest has actually been declining. Long-short structure: Binance data shows top traders' long-short position ratio is about 2.06, but the total account is only 1.08. In other words, large funds are clearly overweight, while retail investors aren't actually that crazy. This is actually good for the market: the rise didn't rely on leveraged hard resistance, and after the previous short squeeze, some market leverage was washed away. Combined with the spot BTC ETF net inflow for eight consecutive days, totaling about $2.8 billion, this rebound is indeed supported by spot funds. But what we really need to watch out for now is something else—the bulls are once again crowded. Currently, funding is about 0.01% per 8 hours, turning positive; BTC RSI is also around 71, indicating short-term trading is not cheap. So I don't interpret the market as "bears are strong" now; on the contrary, if bears keep holding the price, it could easily become fuel again; But if bulls start using leverage to chase 80K and spot funds can't keep up, then a round of bullish selling is likely to occur. Next, focus on three things: whether 80K can break through with increased volume, whether OI is expanding rapidly again, and whether funding is heating up significantly. For example$ $BTC Brothers, the core focus this week is one thing — the non-farm payrolls.
This is the last employment data before the September interest rate decision. It will be released on Friday, and the market is currently betting on expectations.
The market impact can be divided into three scenarios:
Non-farm exceeds expectations: rate hike expectations intensify, BTC may pull back to 75,000 or even 72,000
Non-farm meets expectations: volatility, direction unclear
Non-farm below expectations: rate cut expectations intensify, BTC may rebound above 82,000
BTC is now hovering around 78,000, the key is to see where it goes after the non-farm data is released.
$ETH is more elastic, rising sharply on good news and falling hard on bad news, waiting around 2,480 for direction.
$SKHYNIX's logic differs from SanDisk and BTC. It not only considers interest rates but also how funds move within the AI sector. Poor non-farm data doesn't necessarily mean a rise, nor does good data necessarily mean a fall; it depends on market interpretation.
Before the data comes out, don't bet on direction #就业数据密集公布，沃什政策立场受检验 #BTC高位震荡，与黄金联动增强 #财报观察员：博通与戴尔接棒，AI回报再受检验 SOL ETF breaks $1 billion, but I still won't chase 105
My conclusion: SOL remains bullish in the mid-term, but I won't chase near $105.
The easiest story to tell in the market right now is: SOL ETF continues to attract capital, Bitwise's SOL staking ETF has surpassed $1 billion in size, institutional funds are entering, so pullbacks are buying opportunities.
I only agree with the first half.
ETF size growth indicates that long-term funds are indeed allocating to SOL; but as of the evening of August 31, SOL is still fluctuating around $103, and it has risen about 40% in the past 30 days.
Institutions buying does not mean this level is safe.
More importantly, oil prices, U.S. Treasury yields, and Fed rate hike expectations are all putting pressure on risk assets. At a time when SOL has so many positives but still can't break through 105, it is actually a warning sign.
My plan is simple:
Hold above 105 with volume: continue bullish.
Between 100–105: wait, do not chase.
Break below 100 and fail to recover: reduce short-term bullish stance.
What I really want to see is not whether the ETF will continue buying, but when these purchases truly reflect in the price.
If the ETF continues to attract capital but SOL fails to break 105 for several consecutive days, would you consider this "institutional accumulation" or "the positive has already been priced in"? Why?
#SOL #Solana #ETF #Cryptocurrency #MarketAnalysis#Employment data densely released, Wash's policy stance under scrutiny
This week's market focus will shift from what Wash said to how cold the US employment really is.
• JOLTS job openings, ADP employment, initial jobless claims, and August nonfarm payrolls will be released successively; the strength of the data will directly affect September interest rate expectations.
• July nonfarm payrolls unexpectedly decreased by 23,000, and May and June were cumulatively revised down by 103,000, indicating signs of cooling in corporate hiring.
• In his first Jackson Hole keynote speech, Wash insisted on fighting inflation, believing financial conditions are still not tight enough. After the speech, the probability of a September rate hike rose from about 35% to nearly 60%, US Treasury yields rose, and gold and BTC were pressured simultaneously.
• If employment remains weak this week, the market may again question the room for rate hikes; if the data remains resilient, Wash's hawkish stance will gain more support.
Employment and inflation are pulling on the same policy rope. What this week's data decides may not only be a September meeting but also influence the pricing direction of the dollar, US Treasuries, gold, and $BTC going forward.TRUMP 8.31 Market Analysis: High-Level Pullback, Meme Coin Frenzy Pauses
Today, TRUMP is trading around $2.37, down about 7.8% in 24 hours, sharply contrasting with the previous violent surge.
Reviewing this trend: In late August, TRUMP experienced an astonishing rally. Around August 20, the price started near $1.8, then suddenly broke through $3.4 on August 21, with a 24-hour increase approaching 100%, marking a new high since March. Behind this surge was BTC's strong rally boosting risk appetite, overall warming of the Meme sector, combined with Trump's ongoing push for the CLARITY crypto regulation bill as a catalyst.
But after the spike came intense turnover. Today it pulled back to around $2.37, with clear profit-taking pressure at the high level. The current price is still far from the 52-week high of **$9.5, down over 62% year-to-date**.
Core risk: TRUMP's total supply is nearly 1 billion tokens, with only about 248 million currently circulating. Future supply releases remain a suppressing factor. The team-related wallets have transferred 48 million TRUMP tokens to exchanges in batches over the past five months, worth about $170 million. Although sales have not been confirmed, potential selling pressure cannot be ignored.
Key levels: The $3.0-$3.4 range above has become strong resistance, while $2.0-$2.2 below is recent support. The story is strong enough, and volatility is fierce enough, but chasing highs carries great risk. It is recommended to mainly observe and wait for sufficient turnover before judging the direction. $TRUMP $BTC $ETH BTC climbed from 62,500 to 81,500 in less than two weeks, then crashed back to 78,000. This isn't a pullback—it's the lack of oxygen after a short run. Did you notice? In this round of rally, the most active are contract funds. Spot buying hasn't kept pace, so once the high isn't supported, a stampede is inevitable. I opened a short position near 77,960, with a small position, around $8,550. I'm not betting on a reversal, just trying to participate in this 'expected correction' rhythm. The first target is 76,000. If this level can't hold, the gap between 72,000 and 70,000 isn't just a fantasy—it's probability. Why make this judgment? A few details worth noting: - This rally, which started at 62,500, was almost a straight rally, with almost no solid consolidation in between. This structure itself means the chips are unstable, and profit-taking is accumulating quickly. - Bitcoin was clearly rejected near 81,500 and then closed the upper shadow consecutively, indicating real selling pressure there, not a fake. - The price is now hovering around 78,000, with volume shrinking significantly compared to the rally. This is not "accumulation," but more like waiting for confirmation. But I also remind myself not to be overconfident, because the riskiest move in a bull market is to exit too early. If BTC rises again and climbs above 80,000, I will immediately stop losses and avoid fighting the trend. The strength difference in the sector is also obvious; during Bitcoin's pullback, some altcoins actually do the opposite$3.2 billion inflow, but BTC declines on low volume: What is missing in this rally?
From the market perspective, BTC on OKX hovers around 78,500 with a slight 24-hour increase; ETH, SOL, and HYPE are weak, while OKB oscillates within a range. The total market cap is about 2.63 trillion, with the number of gainers and losers clearly one-sided, indicating that money is not broadly spreading.
On the data side, last week crypto funds saw a net inflow of about $3.2 billion, a phase high, and BTC spot ETFs also had nearly $900 million inflow. But the contradiction is: BTC’s August gains were considerable, yet on-chain and exchange spot trading volumes remain near three-year lows, with major platform volumes sharply down from previous highs. In other words, the increment seems more like institutional channels and ETFs absorbing funds, not a full return of retail trading enthusiasm and overall liquidity.
The sector is similar: modular and DeFAI have pulses, but DeFi and AI Agents are unstable, indicating funds are picking structures, not blindly buying. Institutional buying can provide bottom support and narrative endorsement, but a main rally requires spot trading volume, stablecoin/leverage funds, and altcoin risk appetite all working together.
The observation point is simple: can BTC retake 80,000 with volume expansion, ETH/SOL stop dragging behind, and market breadth improve? Otherwise, it’s "there is capital support, but no firepower to push." In the short term, don’t be misled by net inflow headlines; before volume-price confirmation, there will be more oscillations and false breakouts. #就业数据密集公布，沃什政策立场受检验 #BTC高位震荡，与黄金联动增强 ETH is still hovering around 2,450, and when BTC touched 79,400, it didn't even break 2,550.
After reaching 2,675 on August 26, it has been falling all the way down, dropping nearly 10% in a week. When BTC rises, it doesn't follow much; when BTC pulls back, it falls faster than anyone else.
Why is it so weak? Two reasons.
First, whales are continuously selling. The ETH/BTC ratio keeps dropping, with big players rotating positions, swapping ETH for BTC. This indicates that in the eyes of smart money, the main trend of this rally is BTC, not ETH.
Second, retail positions are too crowded. Currently, 72.8% of retail positions are long. Out of 100 people, 72 are long, yet the price can't go up—who will take the other side?
Meanwhile, the Solana ETF has had net inflows for 9 consecutive days, and SOL rose 40% in August. Funds are flowing from ETH to SOL.
My judgment is clear: ETH will underperform BTC and SOL in the short term.
It's not that ETH is bad; it's just that this wave of new capital prefers BTC (due to continuous ETF inflows) and SOL (due to policy expectations and ecosystem data), leaving ETH out of both.
Holding spot ETH is fine; 2,400 is strong support. But if you're aiming for excess returns, don't bet on ETH.
Did you include ETH in your portfolio this time? Let's discuss in the comments👇
$BTC $ETH On August 31, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps of Iran announced that a supertanker in the southern part of the Strait of Hormuz struck two mines, and after the hull caught fire, it completely lost power. Iran stated that the tanker entered a route it had designated as unauthorized. Currently, the tanker's name, flag, casualties, and damage details have not been disclosed.
This incident further raises the geopolitical shipping risks in the Strait of Hormuz. Previously, the U.S. had just struck rocket launch facilities on Iran's Larak Island, intensifying the U.S.-Iran confrontation again. The potential impacts on various assets are summarized as follows:
🛢️ Crude Oil: Clearly bullish in the short term, with the strait's security risk being repriced.
🚢 Shipping Sector Risk Rising: If the mine threat is confirmed, shipping companies may choose to reroute or suspend navigation, leading to rapid increases in marine insurance premiums and freight rates.
🥇 Gold: Slightly bullish, as geopolitical tension drives safe-haven buying.
📉 Global Stock Markets Under Pressure: Rising oil prices push up inflation expectations, narrowing the Federal Reserve's policy space.
₿ Bitcoin: Short-term tends to be volatile and weak; if oil prices continue to surge, inflation and high interest rate expectations will suppress risk asset valuations.
Key points for further observation:
If multiple parties verify that the accident was indeed caused by mines rather than an isolated incident, the market impact of the news will significantly increase. The market's trading logic will shift from mere verbal deterrence to an actual threat to navigation safety in the shipping lanes, which could become a catalyst for crude oil to break previous highs. At this stage, the information only comes from Iran's unilateral statement; complete vessel information and accident details still require cross-verification from multiple sources. $BTC $ETH $XAU #BTC高位震荡，与黄金联动增强 $BTC might be setting up for another cycle repeat.
The last two major downtrends lasted roughly a year before turning into massive expansions.
2018–19 led to +2000%
2022–23 led to +700%
Now we’re seeing a similar structure again. My base case is this correction cycle wraps up around October, followed by a new expansion if $BTC breaks the downtrend and confirms a clean weekly bottom.#BTCGoldCorrelation $BTC $SOL retracing to $100 is the most critical level in this rally
SOL current price $103.3, 24H -3.3%. This is not just a simple shift to bearish, but the first significant pullback after the big surge in August. Over the past month, SOL has risen more than 40%, but recently contract trading volume has clearly exceeded spot, indicating that the previous rally indeed had a leveraged acceleration component. Current SOL contract OI remains around $6.7 billion, with 24H liquidations close to $30 million, this decline has already started deleveraging.
Spot side is still seeing continuous inflows: US SOL ETF had a net inflow of $154 million last week, marking nine consecutive trading days of net inflows, which is a very solid support.
I remain bullish but will not chase the dip. $100–102 is the first support, $97–98 is strong support/bull-bear boundary; if it reclaims $109, the next targets are $116, and with volume breakout, then $125–130.
This looks more like leveraged clearing after a trend rally, not a trend reversal. Existing positions can be held, no positions should wait for stabilization near $100 before buying. A break below $97 with ETF funds turning clearly negative would directly invalidate the bullish view.$CORE holders keep waiting for a real catalyst, but the market keeps delivering the same old script. 📉
Circulation has climbed to 70.78%, while token unlocks are accelerating. Hype narratives briefly spark buying, but unlocked supply quickly adds selling pressure and pushes price back down.
SatPay and BTCFi stories sound promising, yet real adoption and on-chain activity remain weak. With nearly 30% of supply still locked, distribution pressure could persist.
#LaborMarketTestsWalsh This week, U.S. employment data is coming in a group: ADP, initial jobless claims, and non-farm payrolls take turns knocking, and the market will again scrutinize closely: Will the Fed continue to focus on inflation and hit the brakes, or quietly ease off after seeing employment cool down?
The core actually lies in the "data—interest rates—risk assets" chain. Strong employment and still-hot wages indicate enough economic resilience, making the Fed's hawkish stance harder to dissipate. The market will reprice for "higher for longer," favoring the dollar and U.S. Treasury yields, which suppresses liquidity-sensitive assets like BTC/ETH/SOL; if crypto prices are at highs, long positions in contracts are most vulnerable to being wiped out by volatility. Conversely, if employment weakens significantly, expectations for rate cuts will rise, U.S. Treasury yields and the dollar will fall, and BTC will have a rebound window; but if the weakness triggers recession narratives, the initial reaction may not be positive but a collective risk-off sell-off in risk assets, with liquidity expectations improving later.
A more comfortable scenario is a moderate slowdown in employment: neither collapsing nor overheating, leaving room for policy shifts without triggering recession alarms, which is friendlier to medium-term crypto risk appetite. In the short term, don't judge direction based on a single data point; focus on actual values versus expectations, unemployment rate, hourly wages, and reactions in real Treasury yields and the DXY. BTC should first watch key support and volume, ETH and SOL will follow risk appetite, and high-leverage contracts should be managed cautiously. Data sets the questions, the Fed answers, and the market verifies. $BTC #BTC高位震荡，与黄金联动增强 #OKX预言家：CS2波尔图激战，F1与英超接力 Checked my account at 22:44 tonight, and all three long positions I hold are making money:
$ETH long position, 100x leverage, unrealized profit of 184.55 U, return rate over 40%. Entry average price 2458, current mark price 2468, liquidation price 2290, still about 180 dollars of room left, temporarily safe.
$BTC long position, also 100x, unrealized profit 974 U, return rate 69%. Entry price 78053, now 78594,
At 22:44, the US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen spoke, and I'll briefly translate: She said she can't control the balanced price of bonds, the government can't intervene in the market, which is basically nonsense but implies they won't forcibly suppress US bond yields. She shares the same view as Fed Chair Powell and said that after Trump took office, the 10-year US bond yield basically didn't change, possibly meaning "don't expect us to do distortion operations." Regarding inflation, she said core inflation is still moderate, and the Fed generally won't raise rates when facing supply shocks—this gave the market some reassurance, so the short-term probability of rate hikes is low. She hasn't bought bonds yet and is working with the budget director on fiscal integration plans, possibly aiming to make the US bond market the global leader through bond repurchases, but hedge fund veteran Stanley Druckenmiller previously criticized this policy, to which Yellen retorted, "He lost money the day he published that article," which was quite funny. Overall, this speech was neutral, neither saying they will strongly stimulate nor tighten, so bond market volatility is low. For our positions, no bad news on the macro front is good news, but there's no extra benefit either, so we still rely on the market itself to move $BTC $ETH On the last day of August, the crypto market first fell then recovered.
BTC is currently around $77.9K, up 1.1% in 24h, intraday range $77.2K—$79.3K;
ETH is around $2,449, up 1.1% in 24h, intraday range $2,395—$2,531.
Capital flow shows divergence:
Last Friday, BTC spot ETF saw a net outflow of $201.9 million, ending continuous inflows; ETH spot ETF still had a net inflow of $102.1 million, showing stronger short-term capital performance.
Key levels:
BTC: $76K support, $80K—$81.3K resistance
ETH: $2,400 support, $2,500—$2,560 resistance
My judgment: Today is a rebound recovery, not yet a confirmed breakout. Until BTC firmly stands above $80K again, the market is still viewed as oscillating at a high level; as long as ETH holds $2,400, the logic of capital flowing into ETH remains.
In the first week of September, first watch if ETF capital can continue, then decide whether to chase prices. Global macro guidance from August 31 to September 6: #就业数据密集公布, Wash's policy stance is put to the test. Employment and energy face off! Nonfarm payrolls determine whether the US economy can withstand rate hikes, and crude oil determines whether Wash has a reason to raise rates! Last week was a macro "quartet," but this week the main theme becomes relatively simple—employment and energy. Does Wash's rate hike allow employment data? Jobs wants to stop rate hikes, but does oil price allow? This week's macro framework will test answers around these two themes. 1. The first main theme: Will employment data be a reason to block Wash's rate hike? 1. In last week's speech, Walsh mentioned that if inflation cannot move toward the 2% target, the Federal Reserve will take action (hinting at rate hikes). He believes financial conditions are not tight enough to solve inflation, which raises the probability of a rate hike in September to 60%. However, Walsh's view contains a potential contradiction: employment growth in July was negative, and employment data for May and June were revised downward. Although inflation supports Warsh's rate hike expectations, employment and economic growth currently do not. Therefore, if employment data continues to weaken this week, it will weaken expectations for a rate hike in September. 3. Job vacancies on Tuesday, small nonfarm payrolls on Wednesday, large nonfarms on Friday. Both unemployment and wage conditions will directly affect whether the probability of a rate hike in September will rise or fall. 4. Job vacancies depend on whether companies are still hiring + small nonfarm payrolls look at whether the private sector creates jobs + initial jobless claims depend on whether new financial sources emerge + large nonfarm payroll data combinations ultimately determine the direction of market and interest rate expectations. 2. Nonfarm pay allocations are the final determination of market and interest rate expectationsBTC holding near $77.8K while $SOL underperforms signals caution, not capitulation.
Macro risks are keeping traders defensive, while core BTC/ETH positions remain intact.
Until broader risk appetite returns, major-coin strength looks defensive—not the start of a full market rally.
Just my view, not financial advice.
#LaborMarketTestsWalsh #BroadcomDellAIResults #BTCGoldCorrelation #闪迪铠侠拟投310亿美元，NAND供需重估
SanDisk and Kioxia plan to invest $31 billion into NAND capacity, and this is not just a distant buzz for the crypto community
AI servers are voraciously consuming storage, enterprise-grade SSD demand is being supported, and NAND supply and demand have suddenly tightened
Once storage prices rise, capital expenditure for hardware makers will increase, and the market will reprice the AI infrastructure sector
On the crypto side, the direct link is the AI narrative; as storage market sentiment warms up, targets like AI agents and decentralized storage will see boosted sentiment

The leader has something to say
The US military attacked Iran's Larak Island, Iran retaliated against the US base in Jordan, and oil tankers near the strait were attacked. Brent crude returned to $90.
Previously, the market was still betting on temporary channel negotiations, but now the military risk has directly blocked the transport route. The US is simultaneously increasing financial sanctions, aiming to make Iran's oil unable to be settled even if it can be loaded onto ships. This wave of oil price increase is not short-term sentiment; it is actual supply tightening.
Impact on the market: oil prices above 90, inflation expectations rise, US Treasury yields increase, and risk assets are generally under pressure.
In terms of positions, continue holding the ZEC short, have sold all BTC and wait for a pullback. Do not lightly take long positions until the direction of oil prices becomes clear.
The above analysis is time-sensitive, positions must have stop-loss orders set, good luck. $BTC $ETH $SOL The market is in a "high-level consolidation after a strong recovery in August + a phase of directional switching" — somewhat fragile, not a confirmation of a bull market restart $BTC $ETH $SOL #BTC高位震荡，与黄金联动增强 Breaking news
#Baysent's latest statement: Facing supply shocks, traditionally no rate hikes
Middle East conflict pushes up oil prices, causing typical supply-side inflation.
US Treasury Secretary Baysent proposed a traditional macro framework: in the face of supply shocks, rate hikes are generally not chosen.
Simply put:
The rise in oil prices comes from external geopolitical disturbances, not from overheating of the US domestic economy. Raising rates to suppress domestic demand does not solve the oil supply problem; forced rate hikes would harm the domestic economy.
⚠️Key distinction:
This is the Treasury and White House stance, not the Federal Reserve's policy.
Federal Reserve Chair Wash's stance at Jackson Hole is hawkish; his core concern is whether the short-term oil price shock will spread and evolve into persistent sticky inflation across the market.
- If it's just a pulse spike in oil prices without spreading to core inflation, it aligns with Baysent's logic—no rate hikes needed.
- Once energy price increases transmit to wages and services, and inflation expectations get out of control, the Fed will still initiate rate hikes.
For the crypto market:
This speech will moderately cool down the market's frantic rate hike panic, which is a somewhat friendly signal, but it cannot be taken as a direct safety net.
The final outcome depends on the upcoming August inflation data. $BTC remains at the critical 80,000 level, and the macro game is not over yet.
#BTC #FederalReserve #MacroCryptoCrude oil suddenly surged back above $90
Middle East risks have returned
A few days ago, the market was trading on the temporary opening of the Strait of Hormuz route, but the situation changed immediately over the weekend.
The US attacked targets near the Strait of Hormuz in Iran again, escalating US-Iran tensions. Brent crude oil rose more than 3% today, breaking through $90, and WTI also returned to around $85.
This is exactly why I previously thought crude oil shouldn't be viewed as bearish too early.
The Strait of Hormuz handles about 20% of global oil transportation. As long as stability is not truly restored here, there will always be a war premium embedded in oil prices.
So the biggest problem with crude oil now is that news can drive prices in one direction one day.
If negotiations advance, prices fall; if military conflict escalates, prices immediately rise again.
After $90 is reclaimed, the Middle East situation must be closely monitored again.
$CL $BTC On the last day of August, the market still looked familiar: just scared people out, then slowly pulled back. Today, $BTC hit a low of $77,000, then pulled back to around 78,500; $ETH even more exaggerated, dipping to $2,388 and now back up to around 2,470. This shows there are indeed buyers below, but that only means some are buying, and a strong return is still far from coming. BTC is looking for 79,400 first, then above is 80,000 dollars, which everyone is watching. If this level is just a spike, it could easily trigger another round of chasing gains and getting hit; If you really want the market to feel more comfortable, you should at least hover above 80,000 for a while, not just a quick move and run. On the other hand, 77,000 has already become a position you can't easily lose tomorrow. If it can recover after another drop, it means buying hasn't left; If it doesn't recover to 78,000 after a break for a long time, today's recovery will just be a breather. Tomorrow night will be a bit lively. At 22:00 Beijing time on September 1, US JOLTS job openings and ISM manufacturing data will be released together. The former will see if job demand continues to cool, while the latter will see whether manufacturing is recovering or starting to shrink again. If the data is too strong, the market will worry the Fed will remain hawkish; If the data is too bad, it's easy to see trades showing economic slowdown. The most comfortable outcome is actually a slower employment and a less collapsed manufacturing sector, giving risk assets some breathing room. After all, September 15-16 is the next FOMC meeting, and this week's data will be used to recalculate the probability of rate hikes.

Monday's market continued last week's intense volatility—escalation in the US-Iran conflict once pushed Bitcoin below $77,000, then short covering pulled the price back near $78,000.
**$BTC** is reported near $78,000 today, down about 0.1% in 24 hours, with an intraday range of $77,000-$79,000. Last week saw a rollercoaster from $62,000-$64,000 surging above $81,000, then retreating to $77,000 after hawkish comments from the Fed. Entering Monday, geopolitical conflict became a new disruptive factor—after the US airstrike on the Strait of Hormuz, Iran quickly retaliated, oil prices broke $90, inflation concerns rose again, and Bitcoin briefly decoupled from gold. Currently, the market is tugging near $78,000 with no clear direction.
**$ETH** is reported near $2,450 today, basically flat in 24 hours. The intraday low touched $2,402, showing significantly weaker elasticity than Bitcoin. On-chain data shows whales are concentrating ETH transfers to exchanges—tens of thousands of ETH have been deposited to exchanges in the past two days, signaling short-term selling pressure to watch.
**$SOL** is reported near $103 today, **$XRP** at $1.36, **$DOGE** at $0.0827, **$BNB** at $686, all generally consolidating with lower volume following the broader market.
Regarding ETF data—last week Bitcoin spot ETFs saw a net inflow of $924.5 million, totaling $2.8 billion net inflow over the past two weeks. However, it is notable that last Friday (August 28), Bitcoin ETFs recorded a net outflow of $201.9 million, ending a streak of nine consecutive trading days of net inflows. Ethereum ETFs maintained inflows, showing a clear divergence in capital flows.
Liquidation data—about $399 million liquidated across the network in the past 24 hours, with long positions accounting for $276 million, affecting approximately 99,000 traders.
**Monday Summary**: After last week's big swings, Monday was again disrupted by geopolitical conflict. US-Iran clashes, hawkish speeches, and ETF capital shifts—under these triple pressures, holding the market at $78,000 is already difficult. The real highlight is Friday's nonfarm payroll data; until then, watch more and trade less, avoid impulsive trades amid chaotic news.
$BTC $ETH
#BTC高位震荡，与黄金联动增强 BTC BTC breaks below 78,000, ETH ETH falls under 2,400, $SOL SOL tests 100 — the hawkish aftershocks from Walsh have yet to dissipate.
The evening market is still digesting the repricing after last Friday's Jackson Hole. BTC dipped to around 76,900, rebounded in the afternoon but hasn't firmly reclaimed above 78,000; ETH dropped to 2,386 then bounced to 2,450, a short-term correction rather than confirmation; SOL is grinding around the 100 mark, currently near 101, with altcoins generally following risk appetite.
What truly weighs on valuations is interest rate expectations. Walsh's remark that "it's hard to say financial conditions are tight" was interpreted by the market as a Fed framework shift: from "acting only when forced by data" to "assuming tightness by default / not ruling out more hikes," causing rapid repricing of September rate hikes, with the dollar and real yields on U.S. Treasuries continuously pressuring crypto. Coupled with the employment data window, oil geopolitical tensions, and concerns around the Strait of Hormuz, risk asset funds are pulling back cautiously.
Technically, BTC around 77,000 is the current sentiment watershed; failure to reclaim 78,000 keeps it weak, with support seen at 76,800/previous lows; whether ETH can hold above 2,500 will determine if the rebound is weak or a genuine recovery; SOL must hold 100 to maintain short-term structure, otherwise look for 95-98. In terms of operations, don't rush to catch falling knives; wait for macro pricing and contract pressure to release fully. #就业数据密集公布，沃什政策立场受检验 #BTC高位震荡，与黄金联动增强 #财报观察员：博通与戴尔接棒，AI回报再受检验 BTC's relative stability near $78,000 matters more than the quiet headline move. With ETH and SOL lagging over the past day, this looks like selective risk appetite rather than a broad crypto rebound.
I would keep a defensive bias while oil-sensitive US-Iran tensions and labor-market questions remain in focus. A firmer BTC-gold relationship may support the store-of-value case, but durable upside still needs participation to broan#LaborMarketTestsWalsh #BTCGoldCorrelation #BroadcomDellAIResults $SPCX Evening Rocket Analysis
On the eve of the US stock market, $SPCX surged strongly by $3.62, but the current price has fallen back to hover around 142. The previous positive news triggered a wave of gains, but it now appears that the positive momentum has been exhausted. Data shows that large funds and institutions are taking profits and exiting in large volumes.
The core reasons for this rocket-like rise are threefold:
1. Elon Musk announced the establishment of a gas turbine blade casting factory
2. Previous short covering (short squeeze effect)
3. Negative impact from unlocking has been digested
At this stage, funds from both sides are competing, and a period of consolidation is expected. Sister Yao suggests waiting and watching #BTC high-level consolidation, with increased correlation to gold In the past hour, I filtered out 1 ETH-level signal worth reporting immediately: BitMine, chaired by Tom Lee, has just updated its holdings, with ETH purchased close to 5% of the total supply.
According to BitMine's official disclosure, as of August 30, the company holds 5,901,112 ETH, about 4.9% of Ethereum's total supply. They increased their holdings by 53,501 ETH in the past week, and the company stated that since the launch of the ETH Treasury Strategy, they have been buying ETH weekly for 65 consecutive weeks. Currently, their crypto assets, cash, and other investments total approximately $15.6 billion.
More notably, of the ETH held by BitMine, 5,067,309 ETH have been staked, accounting for about 86% of their ETH holdings. Based on the company's disclosed current yield levels, the expected annualized staking revenue is approximately $335 million. Tom Lee explicitly stated that they have completed 98% of their previously set goal to hold 5% of the total ETH supply.
Why this matters: The market has previously regarded Strategy/Saylor's BTC Treasury as the benchmark for corporate coin hoarding, but now a similar massive capital pool is forming on the Ethereum side as well.MicroStrategy resumes aggressive buying after ten weeks, announcing a king's return with 845,000 BTC holdings
While bears are still calculating when MicroStrategy might be forced to liquidate due to unrealized losses, Michael Saylor shattered all doubts with an extremely hardcore buy order.
MicroStrategy officially disclosed that after a ten-week pause in purchases, the company raised funds through a stock issuance, spending nearly $370 million to acquire another 4,603 bitcoins. This brings MicroStrategy's total bitcoin holdings to an astonishing 845,050 BTC, with a total cost of $63.7 billion, an average holding price fixed at $75,412, and the overall position has once again turned profitable.
Many don't understand Saylor's capital strategy and think he is gambling on the nation's fate. But in the face of mature Wall Street capital tools, Saylor has actually bound the liquidity premium of U.S. stocks with the physical scarcity of bitcoin to the extreme. By continuously issuing premium equity and converting it into on-chain hard assets that never dilute, MicroStrategy is becoming a giant spot black hole that only accumulates and never exits.
When a publicly traded company with a market value of tens of billions of dollars makes draining the bitcoin circulating supply its highest strategic mission, every market pullback-induced panic is just the best opportunity for Saylor to press the issuance and buy button.
Facing MicroStrategy's fierce buying with total holdings approaching 850,000 BTC, do you think Saylor's leverage model will become a perpetual motion machine for the bull market, or does it hide unknown liquidation risks?

The above content represents personal views only and does not constitute any investment advice. DYOR, NFA. $ZEC The most important thing in this round is not the rise to 800
Rather, Wall Street is finally buying now
ZEC surged from below $600 all the way to nearly $880, then experienced a pullback of about 10%. But I think what truly changed ZEC's valuation logic this round was the official launch of ZCSH.
Grayscale's Zcash ETF has begun trading on NYSE Arca, currently holding up to about 393,000 ZEC, valued at over $260 million.
One of the biggest limitations of privacy coins in the past was that traditional funds found it difficult to participate directly.
Now, this entrance has been opened.
Short-term ZEC will of course continue to be shaken, especially since the open interest in futures once approached $1.8 billion, so leverage is not low.
But as long as this pullback doesn't break the trend, my view hasn't changed.
First, break through 880 again, then look at 1000, but in the end, I still wait for $1100.
$BTC Elon Musk's silence may actually be the strongest proof of his influence.
Once known as the “Godfather of Dogecoin” who could make DOGE surge with a single tweet, his frequency of public statements has clearly decreased. Many interpret this as a retreat or relinquishing of influence. But it seems more like the market environment and his own position have changed: meme coins have become desensitized to simple shout-outs, and frequent statements not only fail to move the market but also risk regulatory scrutiny and manipulation accusations. Silence instead preserves room for maneuver.
The narrative he controls has long shifted from Twitter to more concrete foundations: X payment/financial infrastructure, SpaceX and interstellar narratives, DOGE-related missions/brand partnerships, etc. Dogecoin no longer relies solely on memes and sentiment but is moving toward associations with payments and ecosystem symbolism. Previously, it generated short-term volatility; now it competes on payment gateways, brand recognition, and long-term use cases.
For DOGE holders, the real focus should not be on when Musk will mention it again, but on whether, after moving away from shout-out dependence, on-chain activity, payment usage, community consensus, and liquidity can support the narrative. If the value still mainly depends on personal statements, volatility will be high but the foundation shallow; if it can continue to bind with payments and cultural symbols, then the next phase is possible. In the short term, don’t chase news; in the long term, watch usage and consensus.Looking at the market this weekend, the drop looks quite scary, but the structure hasn't broken yet, so I'm not in a hurry to exit.
$BTC hit a low of 76800 today, just a breath away from the 76000 support level, then bounced back. After losing 78000, it became short-term resistance; the intraday rebounds twice failed to reclaim it, so the bears are still strong. But the 76000 level is not simple—it's supported by the 200-period moving average on the 4-hour chart plus the dense trading zone from mid-August, so the buying pressure is indeed solid. Holding today shows the support below isn't fragile.
$ETH is softer, repeatedly testing around 2315 but not breaking down, with consecutive lower shadows indicating funds are supporting the lows. The 2300 defense line has been tested for four consecutive trading days but hasn't been taken down.
What surprised me most was the altcoins. Mainstream coin trading volume shrank by nearly 50%, market makers widened spreads, and slippage became ridiculously large. Yet some meme and AI concept coins surged over 30% in a single day, clearly showing funds are abandoning the big players to speculate on the small ones. I've seen this pattern before—existing funds waiting for direction find a temporary casino. But tonight I don't plan to join this hype; my own account is empty, and my friend only kept some ETH with a clearly defined defense line.
On the macro side, oil prices jumped due to US-Iran tensions, which is not good for rate cut expectations. If inflation rises again, the Fed will find it harder to ease in September. This week also has JOLTS and non-farm payrolls, so volatility will definitely be high. My approach remains unchanged: no bottom fishing, no chasing shorts, wait for BTC to either reclaim 78000 with volume or form a stabilization structure above 76000.#BTC high-level oscillation, enhanced linkage with gold
ETF cooling off, retail investors taking over—BTC's new narrative is being tested
After $BTC broke through 80,000, it is undergoing a critical test.
The ETF inflows, which had been net positive for 9 consecutive days, stopped on August 28. But the price didn't collapse; it is still holding in the 78k-81k range.
Why? Because retail investors have returned—the on-chain activity has risen to a nearly two-year high, small transfers have surged, and retail investors are taking over the baton from institutions.
At the same time, the market's characterization of BTC is quietly changing. Its 90-day correlation with gold has risen above 50%, while its correlation with the Nasdaq has dropped to 33%. This data is crucial: capital is treating BTC as "digital gold" for allocation, rather than a highly volatile tech stock.
But controversy also lies here. After the ETF cool-down, retail sentiment comes quickly and fades quickly; whether it can sustain digesting high-level selling pressure is unknown. And whether BTC's linkage with gold represents a long-term asset allocation shift or a short-term risk-off sentiment phase resonance requires more time to verify.
My judgment: Around 80,000 dollars, time is needed to exchange for space. Don't chase the rally; wait for evidence of ETF turning around again or sustained retail enthusiasm. The real main line is not the price, but that BTC's attribute definition is being rewritten—which is far more important than short-term price fluctuations.Between August 27 and 28, the flow of funds from crypto ETFs showed a visible divergence, a change that deserves more attention than simple price fluctuations. Data shows that on the 27th, Bitcoin ETFs recorded a net inflow of $235.6 million, followed closely by Ethereum with $225.8 million, and Solana and XRP with stable inflows of $56.1 million and $18.5 million respectively. However, just one day later, the trend shifted: Bitcoin ETFs saw a net outflow of about $211.2 million, while Ethereum, Solana, and XRP continued to see positive inflows during the same period. This stark contrast easily brings to mind an old question: are funds fleeing Bitcoin, or are they undergoing broader asset rotation? From the data itself, the answer leans more toward the latter. Because if the overall market is bearish, other mainstream coins will find it difficult to maintain net inflows during Bitcoin's pullback. A more reasonable explanation is that some funds are withdrawing from Bitcoin's certainty premium, turning instead to seek narrative opportunities within the Ethereum ecosystem, Solana ecosystem, and XRP. This choice is not accidental; it often occurs during periods when market dependence on a single asset decreases and interest in diversified allocation begins to rise. It is worth noting that these two days coincided with a window for market discussions about the correlation between labor data and Bitcoin gold. The repeated mention of Bitcoin's correlation with gold indicates that some funds still treat Bitcoin as a macro hedge, while others actively test independent market trends of other assets. This divideThe strongest August in 9 years, yet $BTC suddenly goes silent—should the bulls panic?
$BTC surged 25% in August, marking the best August performance since 2017. Historically, August is BTC's worst month with an average return of -7%, but this time it reversed completely.
Now it’s reported at 77,700, stuck just below 80,000, caught in a dilemma. It failed to break 80,000 on Friday and consolidated with low volume over the weekend.
Three danger signals: first, ETF net inflows ended after 9 consecutive days, with an outflow of 201.9 million on August 28; second, the Fed turned hawkish, PCE at 3.7% far exceeds the target, shattering hopes for a rate cut in September; third, US debt surpassed 40 trillion, and the Strait of Hormuz was bombed, causing oil prices to soar.
But monthly momentum remains, with whales increasing positions by 2.75 billion over 60 days and not exiting.
My judgment: 80,000 is the critical line between bulls and bears. Cut losses if it falls below 75,000; go long if it holds above 80,000; otherwise, stay put and wait for direction.
September has historically been worse—don’t mistake August’s luck for strength. #BTC $BTC Capital is beginning to regard BTC again as an independent major asset class, rather than just a high Beta tech stock.
In August, $BTC rose about 24% to $78,000, while the S&P 500 rose about 3%, the Nasdaq about 4.1%, and gold clearly underperformed; more importantly, from August 24–28, the US spot BTC ETF saw a net inflow of $924 million, indicating that this rally was indeed supported by spot capital, not just contract-driven price pumping.
But the short-term is already a bit overheated: global BTC ETPs currently absorb about 4 times the new daily supply, and the market sentiment indicator has reached an extreme greed level of 81; meanwhile, BTC remains stuck below $80,000, and today the ETF even saw a net outflow of about $202 million.
My judgment: the trend has indeed strengthened, but "outperforming gold and the stock market" has already become new narrative fuel. The market is trading institutional capital continuing to migrate from traditional assets to BTC, rather than simply chasing gains. If $80,000 is broken through with volume, this logic will continue to strengthen; if ETF inflows begin to weaken persistently, the 23% gain is more likely to become a target for short-term profit-taking.Bitcoin surged 24% in August
But I will start to be a bit cautious in September
$BTC was very strong this August, breaking through 80,000 from around 60,000, with a monthly increase of about 24%, making it the best performing month this year.
But entering September, I will start to pay more attention to risks.
Now BTC has returned to around 78,500 USD, while BTC balances on exchanges have started to increase. BTC reserves on Binance have risen to about 687,000 coins, the highest this year. ETFs also ended a continuous 9-day net inflow on August 28.
However, overall ETF net inflows last week were still about 924 million USD, so it is not yet time to turn bearish directly.
My judgment is simple:
If it recovers to 80,000, I remain bullish; if funds continuously flow out and it falls below key support, I will reduce my position a bit first.
The first week of September is much more important than simply guessing the rise or fall.

#GoldVsBTCETFFlows $BABYDOGE's official tweet on August 30th crafted a narrative deliberately defining shareholders of listed companies as "outsiders," claiming that token holders are the true participants in the ecosystem mechanism. This promotional logic seems reasonable at first glance, but compared to the regulatory framework of capital markets, the loopholes are very obvious.
Legitimate listed companies are legally bound to regularly disclose financial reports, cash flows, executive compensation, and grant shareholders voting rights on major matters. Although financial fraud and other violations may occur in the market, this precisely shows that information transparency is a legally mandated baseline, with regulatory and judicial systems as constraints.
In contrast, $BABYDOGE has clear shortcomings in project transparency. According to CertiK security audit results, the contract source code is not publicly disclosed, and the entire fund and contract operation is like a black box. The contract administrator retains the privilege to modify transaction tax rates, posing significant centralized control risks. The project team can unilaterally adjust rules without standardized disclosure requirements.
The charity donation narrative heavily promoted in the tweet also warrants caution. Donation funds come from transaction fees, which are essentially the traders' transaction costs; after cashing out by selling at market highs, the project team allocates a portion for public welfare, making charity more of a marketing packaging tactic. The destination of donation funds lacks third-party independent audits, and the entire fund usage is autonomously controlled by the project team.
Overall, the so-called "advanced participation mechanism" of this project resembles more of a marketing story.
