SanDisk $SNDK just surged yesterday, and today it got hit.
On August 18th, the opening price dropped more than 9% at one point, dragging down Micron $mu, Western Digital $WDC, Seagate $STX, and SK Hynix $skhy, all falling over 7%. The entire storage sector was heavily sold off.
A few days ago, the investor day promises looked quite appealing—8 customers, agreements up to 5 years, guaranteed revenue of 93.9 billion, and an 80% gross margin. The stock price rose 13% that day. But today, it gave back a lot right at the open.
Bank of America did come out to support, saying SanDisk's targets could serve as a reference for Micron's valuation. Institutions are still betting that AI and HBM demand can pull storage stocks out of the cyclical stock logic. But the market is clearly not that confident—the promises were made, but whether they can be fulfilled is another matter.
Now the divergence is clear: Can long-term agreements really convert into stable income and ultra-high profit margins? If this pullback can hold at previous lows, it’s just digesting an overextension; if it breaks further down, the market might be starting to reassess "how much AI storage is really worth."
Looking at $BTC, storage stocks are the sentiment barometer for the AI hardware sector. If these stocks collectively weaken, the Nasdaq will be dragged down, and BTC won’t escape short-term pressure either. Let’s see where the funds flow after this adjustment. #闪迪回落逾9%，存储估值分歧加剧 BTC 급등보다 중요한 것은 상위 랭커의 구성 변화다 과연 이 상승 랠리는 실수요가 만든 것인가, 레버리지가 부풀린 것인가? 원문에서 확인된 핵심 사실은 다음과 같다. GPS가 약 48.7% 상승했지만 거래량이 얇고, 상위 랭커에는 SNXX, MVLL, RAM 같은 레버리지 상품이 다수 포진해 있다. 반면 BEAT는 최근 과열 사이클 이후 22.6% 급락했으며 하락 과정에서 거래량이 급증했다. BICO, HOME, ROBO, ZHIPU는 상승 동력이 약화되며 모멘텀 이탈 조짐을 보인다. 이 지표들이 시사하는 시장 구조적 함의는 명확하다. 상위 랭커의 상당 부분이 레버리지 상품이라는 것은 현물 시장의 실수요보다는 추격 매수와 베팅성 포지션이 가격을 밀어 올리고 있다는 뜻이다. 얇은 거래량 위의 급등은 청산이 연쇄적으로 발생할 경우 되돌림 속도가 매우 빠를 수 있음을 의미한다. 반대로 BEAT의 급락 동반 거래량 급증은 단순한 차익 실현이 아니라, 매수 세력의 적극적인 이탈이 일어나고 很多人现在只盯着$BTC 的价格。 64,000美元。 65,000美元。 涨了就喊牛市，跌了就喊熊市。 但我觉得真正值得盯的东西，根本不是这几百美元的波动。 而是美国。 就在昨天，美国SEC正式提出新的加密资产监管框架。 部分代币发行可能获得新的豁免路径。 甚至包括最高7500万美元的年度发行豁免。 这意味着什么？ 以前项目方最怕的就是： 你到底算不算证券？ 现在美国监管开始尝试把这件事说清楚。 这对于整个加密行业，其实是一个非常大的变化。(Reuters) 但有意思的地方来了。 SEC在往前走。 CFTC也在推进。 特朗普政府也在推动加密行业。 可真正决定长期游戏规则的《CLARITY Act》，却还卡在国会。 甚至市场对于它今年通过的预期已经明显下降。(Reuters) 这就像什么？ 美国监管部门已经把门打开了一条缝。 但国会还站在门口说： “等等，先别急着进。” 所以我现在反而觉得： 真正的大行情，可能根本不是某一天BTC突然暴涨。 而是美国什么时候把这套规则彻底落下来。 因为一旦规则明确，银行敢进。 基金敢进。 传统金融机构敢进。 项目方敢融资。 交易平台也敢扩大业务。 到那UNITREE's first day on the A-share market opened at 1100, while the crypto perpetual contract was at 112, a 30% gap that was erased within half an hour. Are those chasing 131 just bag holders?
UNITREE was listed today on the STAR Market with an issue price of 150.8 yuan, reaching a market cap of over 440 billion yuan. Those who won the lottery gained 470,000 yuan per lot. At the same time, the UNITREE pre-IPO perpetual contract on Trade.xyz was only $112.5, which converts back to 758 yuan, showing a more than 30% difference from the A-share opening price.
At first glance, I knew this gap would be corrected. Investors who can't get shares on the A-share market go to the perpetual contract to add positions, while profit-taking on the A-share side leads to selling on the perpetual contract, with fees flowing back to the exchanges.
Newbies shouldn't treat this as a positive for UNITREE in crypto. UNITREE on the A-share market is a stock, while $UNITREE is a pre-IPO perpetual contract with no equity, no dividends, and no delivery guarantee—just an emotional shadow. Understanding this cross-market gap is more important than jumping in.
#财报观察员：小米Q2财报出炉，是汽车救场还是手机拖后腿？ The SEC suddenly opened a door for token issuance projects.
This time, it's not an exchange announcing good news.
It's the U.S. SEC itself proposing: a compliant fundraising channel for certain crypto projects.
On August 18, the SEC announced the "Regulation Crypto Assets" proposal.
It includes two paths:
Startups can raise up to $5 million in a one-time fundraising within four years; qualified issuers may raise up to $75 million within 12 months, while bearing disclosure and ongoing reporting obligations.
The proposal also includes a "safe harbor" arrangement, where tokens meeting the conditions may no longer be continuously regarded as investment contracts.
But note:
This is a proposal, not a rule that has taken effect yet, and there will be a 60-day public comment period.
Bulls see this as the U.S. reopening capital to on-chain entrepreneurship; bears see disclosure, audit, and compliance costs potentially eliminating many small projects.
The real regulatory shift is not allowing everyone to issue tokens casually, but finally telling you how to issue them without easily ending up in court.
If ultimately implemented, will the next wave of token issuance return to the U.S., or will scammers be the first to write "SEC compliant" into their promotional materials?Still reeling from last night's K-line, Hyperliquid just threw a set of data in our faces that would give any auditor arrhythmia.
Let's not be scared by that string of trillion-level numbers (probably leverage adjustments during data statistics, since the global GDP is just over one hundred trillion). We need to look behind this data to see what tricks these top hunters are really playing.
Right now, Hyperliquid is like a grand feast about to end, with undercurrents flowing beneath the table. The number 0.97 is very telling; it tells us that these guys holding tens of billions of dollars are no longer blindly bullish.
Short positions account for 50.81%, indicating that the "smart money" in the market has quietly shifted their seats to the short side. On the surface, everyone talks about the stars and the sea, but behind the scenes, they're all watching out for the banana peels underfoot. This is not just a divergence; it's a collective "risk-hedging defense."
The most eye-catching data is the $61.06 million unrealized loss on long positions.
In contrast, shorts have only lost $15.16 million. What does this mean? It means recent market volatility has basically been rubbing the longs' heads on the ground. The longs are now "holding positions with tears," hoping for a miraculous reversal to break even; while shorts, though also losing a bit, see that loss at most as a "ticket fee to watch the show." This imbalance in loss intensity often signals an imminent market crash liquidation or a sharp rebound.
The most...今天币圈有个消息，我觉得很多人可能低估了。 美国SEC正式提出新的加密资产监管框架。 部分加密项目未来可能获得更明确的发行豁免路径，甚至设置了最高7500万美元的年度发行豁免额度。 什么意思？ 说白了就是： 以前美国监管对币圈是“先管你再说”。 现在开始变成： “什么币属于证券，什么币不属于，咱们先把规则说清楚。” 这对整个行业绝对是好事。(Reuters) 而且今天特朗普还要和加密行业人士碰面。 SEC、CFTC这些监管机构也都在推进自己的加密政策。 更关键的是，《CLARITY Act》虽然还卡在国会，但美国监管部门显然已经不准备一直等了。(Reuters) 所以我现在看BTC，反而有一个很现实的判断： 基本面在变好，不代表价格马上就要暴涨。 现在BTC还在6.4万美元附近反复磨。 油价、地缘冲突、利率预期，这些东西还在压着风险资产。(巴伦周刊) 所以别看到“特朗普+SEC+加密监管”几个字，就觉得大牛市马上启动。 市场最喜欢干的一件事就是： 先给你一个利好，让你兴奋。 然后—— 把追进去的人全部教育一遍。 我现在更关注的不是BTC今天能不能涨1000美元。 而是： 美国到底是在给The recent movement of BTC these past two days is quite interesting.
While the US stock market is still struggling, BTC has actually reclaimed the $64,000 level, even surging to $65,000 at one point during the session.
Finally, it’s no longer following the stock market down, which is great news.
But what I’m paying more attention to now is one data point: the funding rate for perpetual contracts has surged to a 20-month high.
Simply put, the bulls are getting overly enthusiastic again.
On top of that, with Trump meeting crypto industry executives, derivatives activity has clearly picked up, and market sentiment is noticeably hotter than a few days ago.
So we can be a bit optimistic about this wave, but don’t get too excited.
The question now isn’t "whether anyone is bullish," but rather:
With so many bulls entering, can BTC continue to climb?
If $64,000 holds and $65,000 keeps pushing higher, the market still has potential.
But if it can’t break through and the funding rate stays high, the crowded longs could easily get squeezed.
And there’s a key variable tonight.
At 2 AM Beijing time on August 20, the FOMC meeting minutes will be released.
This time, we don’t have to wait for an interest rate decision; the focus is on how concerned the members are about oil prices and inflation, and whether there’s any clear internal disagreement on the future policy path.
If the wording is more hawkish than the market expects, this BTC rebound might wobble again.
If it’s less hawkish, the market might actually breathe a sigh of relief.
So today, watch two things:
Whether BTC can hold $64,000, and what the Fed says at 2 AM.

Xiaomi Q2 Earnings Report Released: Hardware Cycle Bottomed, Clear Turning Point in Q3
Xiaomi officially disclosed its Q2 earnings after market close tonight, with overall data fully meeting market expectations: revenue of ¥108.9 billion, a slight year-on-year decline of 6.1%, and adjusted net profit of ¥6.2 billion. Although revenue slightly retreated, all three core businesses completed structural optimization; this is not weakness but a typical bottom gear shift, gearing up for upward momentum.
1. Phone Business: Volume Down, Price Up, High-End Strategy Fully Realized
Phone shipments were under pressure in Q2, but core quality was comprehensively upgraded. Behind the phased decline in shipments is a strong replacement with a high-end product structure; phone ASP continued to rise, hitting a record high.
Against the backdrop of industry-wide storage price increases suppressing overall profits, Xiaomi proactively abandoned low-end volume sales, focusing on high-margin models, completely breaking away from low-price competition. The fundamental logic of profitability has been reshaped.
2. Car Business: Losses Narrowed Significantly, Breakeven Approaching
The SU7 series delivered 104,200 units in Q2, with delivery volume steadily climbing and vehicle gross margin remaining high.
The key turning point: the car business’s quarterly loss narrowed from ¥3.1 billion in Q1 to ¥2.06 billion.
Capacity release plus scale effects are firmly driving the loss reduction trend, with breakeven just one step away, poised to become the largest growth engine in the future.
3. AIoT Business: Consumer Electronics Leading Recovery
Driven by the 618 shopping festival, IoT segment revenue surged 28% quarter-on-quarter, with demand for major appliances and smart home products clearly warming up.
This is a very critical signal: mass consumer electronics demand has emerged from the slump, and the hardware terminal sector is officially bottoming and recovering.
4. Core Expectations for Q3: Upgraded Certainty
1. Storage chip prices are about to peak and decline, leading to a certain margin recovery in the phone business;
2. Xiaomi’s new car models continue to ramp up, further increasing the car business’s revenue share;
3. The three lines of phone, car, and AIoT resonate together, fully unlocking performance elasticity.
5. Macro Linkage: Hardware Cycle Warming, Benefiting the Computing Power Sector
The global tech hardware industry chain is emerging from the cycle bottom, with consumer electronics recovery and chip demand warming, directly driving global computing power capital expenditure recovery.
BTC, as the core underlying asset of the computing power economy, is highly correlated with the tech hardware boom. The hardware cycle reversal is the strongest fundamental support for the sustained bull market in computing power.
This round of tech sector recovery is not a short-term rebound,
it is a triple resonance of industry cycle, earnings turning point, and fundamental warming. #财报观察员：Xiaomi Q2 Earnings Released, Is It the Car Business Saving the Day or the Phone Business Holding It Back? $BTC $ETH $SNDK $TRIA Did you think it would rebound short at the resistance level?
TRIA's daily chart bottom has been accumulating with obvious volume increase signs, the market cap is only 20 million, and it's still a relatively new coin, so the chance of a pump is very high, plus on-chain funds are continuously flowing in.
Today, intraday TRIA reached a daily resistance level of 0.0106. Sister Shan's intraday view is to see if TRIA can break through 0.0107!
Current position 0.0104 can be used to establish a base position first, a large amount has not been released yet, stop loss at 0.95, target at 0.110 🚀🚀🚀🚀With this current crypto landscape, there really isn't much hope for it by the end of the year. An unavoidable reality is that the cyclical bear market is already in place, and both capital and enthusiasm are no longer in the arena. The first phenomenon is very straightforward: stock assets dominate the trading charts of exchanges. As a user, would you really rather spend $10,000 on air or $10,000 on SanDisk? Look at SanDisk's performance: wild surges, big volatility, and full of stories. Money is still in the crypto world, just not in crypto anymore. It's like a child is still your own flesh and blood, but you already call others 'dad'. Looking at $CORE, how many times have you carried it? The highest was $6.90, now only $0.02—how many people are stuck? If you bought $10,000 at the top and now only have $29 left, it's a river of blood. Another example is $LAB, which surged to $20 and is now down to $0.08—so many liquidations are hard to count. No matter how much hard-earned money is poured in, everyone wants small amounts to make big profits and get rich overnight, but in the end, it's just a plaything for the marketers. The second phenomenon is that crypto trading methods are still very primitive: find a popular keyword, post a meme, and then push up market value. Now, its market value often approaches 100 million yuan, which is a hundred times the actual revenue. This precisely shows that the crypto world currently has no new stories or new rhythms. Isn't the recent Bull Come a great example? Exchanges have actually discovered a new continent: if you connect traditional assets through cryptocurrency, the user base is countless times larger than the crypto world. So now🚨 Citi is going to offer native BTC custody, which I think is more worth paying attention to than "how much BTC Citi has bought."
Previously, institutions could gain BTC price exposure through ETFs, but ETFs and directly holding BTC are completely different things.
Now Citi is preparing to include native BTC in the institutional custody system, essentially filling a key gap:
Traditional financial funds will start to have a more formal BTC entry point.
This means that before, when institutions entered Crypto, it was like opening a door themselves: wallets, private keys, compliance, risk control, audits—all had to be handled on their own.
Now it becomes: Citi keeps it for you, and the traditional financial system takes over the process.
The threshold instantly lowers.
The real benefit of this is that in the future, when more institutions "want to buy BTC," there will finally be a place to safely store it.
But one of the original purposes of BTC's creation was to allow assets not to rely on bank custody.
Now, more and more BTC is re-entering the custody systems of large financial institutions, which in a sense is a reversal: Crypto is entering traditional finance, and traditional finance is redefining Crypto.
So I prefer to see Citi's move as not just a capital inflow, but an institutional entry point being opened.
In the short term, how BTC moves still depends on capital and the macro environment.
But the truly important thing in the long term is: when institutions want to allocate BTC, the threshold to enter this market is getting lower and lower.
#花旗拟推BTC托管，机构入口扩容 @OKX中文 Still waiting for a breakout.
$ETH is stuck at 1,900, and $BTC is at 64k.
My $ETH short from 1,890 is still on, but profit has melted away.
The speech by Powell later this week might be the trigger.
The plan remains simple:
• $BTC breaks 64k → short again
• $ETH breaks 1,920 → close and wait
• Stays in range → do nothing
Boring but necessary. What is your move? 👇Gold surged to 4430, but BTC stayed flat: Why didn’t digital gold follow this time?
Looking at the three charts together today, it’s a bit painful: gold is climbing, the 30-year US Treasury yield is still around 5.3%, yet $BTC is hovering near 64366. People used to call it digital gold, but when risk-off sentiment is at its peak, it behaves more like a sleepy risk asset.
But I don’t think this means BTC has "failed."
Gold is currently being bought on concerns about geopolitics, inflation, and fiat currency credit; the rise in long-term bond yields reflects the market demanding higher term premiums. BTC is caught in the middle, suppressed by high risk-free rates while needing incremental capital willing to bear volatility, so it’s naturally not as direct as gold.
On the charts, BTC couldn’t break through 65037 today, nor did it fall below 64009, with an 8-hour funding rate of +0.00833%. This isn’t strength, just that the bulls haven’t surrendered yet. $ETH holding 1900 is even more awkward; before breaking 1922, it hasn’t even shown the high-beta elasticity.
Right now, I’m only watching two things:
If gold continues to strengthen, can BTC reclaim 64500 and then break above 65000? If yes, it means it’s just a bit slow; if not, the higher gold rises, the more BTC needs to guard against losing 64000.
Digital gold has never been about shouting—it’s proven by price at critical moments.

$ETH Last month’s 9:3 vote had 3 members directly voting against the rate hike, the first time since 2016. Waller said at the press conference, "This is just the beginning of the story," then gave no further explanation. This time, the minutes will fill in the insider details he didn’t disclose.
The market’s biggest concern is one thing: how many actually support the rate hike?
$GPS In June, it was said to be a "minority," but by July, 3 people had already flipped the table. Some analysts say this is just the tip of the iceberg; a significant number of officials were already ready to act. The hawkish path is very clear—from opposing statements in April to direct votes forcing action in July.
What does this mean for the crypto space?
If the minutes lean hawkish → US Treasury yields rise, the dollar strengthens → risk assets come under pressure, and BTC is pressed below 64,000. If the minutes lean dovish → rate hike expectations cool down → BTC has a chance to surge. On Monday, the S&P 500 fell 0.52%, but BTC rose 2% to break above 64,000, indicating capital is playing ahead of the curve.
The key is, the probability of a September rate hike once hit 70%, now it’s down to 35%. Waller doesn’t give guidance or chart a path, leaving the market to interpret data and guess. So tonight’s minutes are the most important short-term directional indicator.
#财报观察员：小米Q2财报出炉，是汽车救场还是手机拖后腿？

ETH current price is 1896, up 0.5% in 24 hours, stuck in the 1884-1922 squeeze: capped by the 100-day moving average at 1922 on top, supported by the 20-day moving average at 1884 and the 50-day moving average at 1864 as the floor. It can't rally, nor can it drop deeply.
Three drivers reveal the market's temperature.
First, staking locks up tokens. The total staked amount on the network has surged to a historic high of 42.1 million tokens, accounting for 34.9% of circulating supply, with another 2.33 million queued to enter. The circulating supply is getting thinner and thinner, which is the fundamental reason why the price doesn't fall deeply.
Second, institutional products are collectively upgrading. Fidelity has applied to add staking functionality to its ETF FETH, allowing up to 100% staking with 85% of the yield distributed to holders; BlackRock is tokenizing six currency funds (totaling $311 billion in assets) onto Ethereum via JPMorgan's Kinexys; Morgan Stanley has also launched ETH and SOL ETPs. The main battleground for RWA remains ETH.
Third, short-term funds are holding back. ETFs saw a net inflow of $245 million last week, the strongest since mid-April, but then reversed with an outflow of $16.3 million over two days. Neither bulls nor bears have conviction, so the price can only move sideways.
Key levels: resistance at 1922 and 1950; support at 1884 and 1864 (if broken, watch 1800).
In short: the price is resting, but fundamentals are running.

· Last Bear Market: The total supply of all stablecoins in the crypto market shrank by about $31.4 billion — a real capital outflow, liquidity completely withdrawn.
· This Bear Market: The total supply of stablecoins only shrank by $14.6 billion, less than half of the last time.
The conclusion is straightforward:
It's not that market liquidity is too poor, but that liquidity is not on the crypto market side.
An "Alternative Interpretation" of BTC Volatility
BTC having no volatility does not mean crypto is finished.
On the contrary —
The previously heavily criticized "excessive volatility" of BTC by countless media has finally been fixed.
Looking at BTC from a Different Perspective
Simply viewing BTC as early gold,
many unsettling phenomena are actually quite normal.
Liquidity hasn't disappeared; it has just switched tracks. BTC is silently repairing, waiting for the next consensus cycle.

#贝莱德重申BTC仍具配置价值 Firmly Bearish! This round of rebound is purely a bull trap, a major downtrend is about to begin🔥
$BTC $ETH
Clear statement: For Bitcoin and Ethereum in this rebound, firmly bearish!
This wave of rally from start to finish is a classic bull trap, with a very clear purpose—to specifically liquidate leveraged short positions within the market.
It appears as continuous sideways consolidation and a corrective rebound, but in reality, there is no new external capital entering.
Throughout, the main force is exploiting low liquidity conditions, passively pumping the price to concentrate and blow out high-leverage short positions.
Now that the short squeeze task is fully completed, the upward momentum on the chart is completely wiped out, and the real downtrend is about to start.
The truth can be seen with just two questions:
After the short squeeze ends, where is the real incremental buying capital? Where is the new liquidity continuously pushing the price up?
The answer is straightforward: both are zero. Without incremental follow-up, all rebounds are just inflated bubbles.
Multiple macro bearish factors are stacking up:
BTC spot ETFs continue to see capital outflows, institutional buying visibly cooling off, the market is propped up solely by existing internal funds;
At the same time, the US tech sector keeps diverting market liquidity, continuously draining the crypto market’s lifeblood, weakening the overall bullish environment.
Looking at core market linkages, conditions for a bull run are completely absent:
ETH has weakened throughout, the rebound lacks volume support, upward moves are weak, bulls are fatigued;
$SNDK remains stagnant at high levels, bullish momentum is completely exhausted, sector leaders are the first to falter.
Mainstream core assets are collectively weakening, with no strength to sustain further gains.
The current market logic is very clear:
Every rebound is an excellent short entry point.
The bull trap phase is ending, the false pump bubble is about to burst, and a new downtrend will be realized at any time.
No need for wishful thinking or hoping for continued recovery,
Hold your short positions patiently and quietly wait for the main downtrend to materialize!

On August 18, SEC Chair Atkins introduced the Regulation Crypto Assets draft, shifting from "enforcement as regulation" to issuing a quasi-licensing for token financing.
Three core points:
• Two tiers of registration exemptions: cumulative ≤ $5 million over 4 years / ≤ $75 million in 12 months (large amounts require financial reports + ongoing disclosures)
• Conditional safe harbor: after a project stops "core managerial efforts," tokens can shed their "investment contract" status and no longer be treated as securities by the SEC
• Federal law takes precedence over state law, partial easing of secondary market trading, 60-day comment period
In plain language:
Small project crowdfunding is legalized, large projects follow a "simplified IPO" path, and mature decentralized coins can "graduate" from securities restrictions—this transforms the chaotic 2017 ICO graveyard into a compliant issuance market by 2026.
This is not an immediate pump for the market, but a long-term valuation reappraisal for RWA, tokenized securities, and US-compliant chains. The probability of offshore arbitrage projects returning to the US increases, and compliance costs for listing US tokens on CEXs decrease.
But don’t get ahead of yourself: a draft ≠ law; with a 60-day comment period plus congressional wrangling, implementation won’t happen before 2027; the Howey test remains, so tokens whose "teams are still struggling to push roadmaps" are still securities.
This wave is "regulation providing the stairs, projects must walk down themselves"—whoever complies with the new rules and disclosures first will get institutional money first.#SEC提出《加密资产监管》草案
🚨 If the SEC really implements the “crypto asset safe harbor” this time, the impact could be even greater than a round of $BTC price surge.
The biggest headache for crypto projects in the past wasn’t lack of funds, but rather: are they securities or crypto assets?
With unclear boundaries, project teams hesitate to raise funds, exchanges hesitate to list tokens, and institutions hesitate to enter on a large scale.
This time, the SEC’s proposed draft is truly worth attention not for "how much can be raised," but for starting to try to give projects a clearer path:
Under what circumstances can registration be exempted?
Under what circumstances can tokens gradually shed their securities attributes?
If ultimately implemented, it means U.S. regulation might shift from: “You first prove you’re not breaking the law.”
To: “Here are the rules, follow them.”
This is a major change for crypto.
Clear fundraising path → projects dare to raise funds;
Clear regulatory boundaries → platforms dare to list tokens;
Clear institutional rules → funds dare to enter the market.
But don’t rush to shout “America is fully opening up.”
The draft is just a draft; the final limits, scope of the safe harbor, and applicable conditions all depend on the official text and whether it can truly align with the CLARITY Act later.
If the rules really shift from “blocking” to “unblocking,” the crypto market may usher in a genuine infrastructure upgrade.
The most valuable regulation is never just a phrase like “support innovation,” but a set of rules that make projects dare to act, institutions dare to invest, and platforms dare to list. @OKX中文 Urgent notice to temporarily stop short positions on $ACE.
Yi Jie observed that the ACE chain project-related addresses have been continuously buying.
Combined with the previous 70% waterfall drop and the rapid recovery in a short time, it proves that there are too many short position chips. For this highly controlled demon coin, it is very likely that a second stretch to explode contracts is being prepared.
Yi Jie will observe and confirm the trend before entering the market. Brothers who have already entered, remember to set stop losses.
【The above is only a personal opinion】
#Anthropic信贷拟超百亿美元 Long-term interest rates have completely broken down! The decade-long range has ended, and BTC valuation logic is being fully repriced
A major, trend-changing event rewriting more than a decade of market trends is currently unfolding globally: long-term U.S. Treasury yields have fully broken through the historical range ceiling.
The 30-year Treasury yield has surged directly to 5.29-5.32%, hitting a new high since 2007; the 10-year yield firmly stands at 4.72%.
This is not a short-term pulse fluctuation but a complete breakdown of the long-term downward interest rate cycle that lasted over a decade. Global long-term rates have officially entered a new repricing phase.
1. Core underlying logic behind the surge in long-term bond yields
1) U.S. fiscal debt is completely out of control
The outstanding U.S. debt scale continues to expand wildly, with massive issuance of long-term government bonds, creating unprecedented market absorption pressure. Coupled with persistently sticky inflation well above the 2% policy target, the dual forces of oversupply and stubborn inflation continuously push long-term yields higher.
2) Overseas major buyers are continuously retreating
Many central banks have been long-term, steadily reducing their U.S. Treasury holdings, causing a significant shrinkage in overseas long-term capital buying. The massive new issuance of Treasuries can only be passively absorbed by domestic U.S. funds, directly driving up the overall long-term financing costs.
3) Global capital rushes to long-term bonds, creating systemic siphoning
U.S. corporations are issuing large-scale bonds, aggressively competing for long-term market liquidity; not only U.S. Treasuries are under pressure, but Japanese government bonds are also facing sell-offs simultaneously.
This is not a problem isolated to the U.S. market but a macro turning point where global long-term rates collectively rise and asset valuation systems are comprehensively reset.
2. New highs in interest rates precisely suppress the crypto market (core practical logic)
Trading must be viewed in layers: short-term rate pressure, mid-term credit logic; avoid one-sided bullish or bearish views.
Short-term core suppression: pressure on non-yield assets, increased deleveraging risk
Long-term risk-free yields continue to rise, directly increasing the opportunity cost of market funds.
BTC is a typical non-yield asset; in a high-interest-rate environment, institutional allocation cost-effectiveness drops sharply, and willingness for incremental entry is directly suppressed.
The chain of negative impacts is very clear:
1) Market leverage costs rise, passive deleveraging on exchanges continues to ferment;
2) Market support weakens, volatility increases, frequent spikes and rapid sell-offs become the norm;
3) All rebounds are defined as technical corrections, not trend reversals.
Key reminder: Without rate declines, valuations have no support.
Do not think valuations are cheap just because of slight market dips. The current macro environment has completely changed; the old valuation system is invalid, and blindly bottom-fishing will only lead to passive losses.
3. Current BTC market tone and practical strategy
The current BTC pattern is very clear: high-rate suppression of valuation, mainly weak oscillation, no unilateral big rally opportunities.
1) Range-bound phase: key supports hold, treat only as oscillation, no prediction of breakout or reversal;
2) Risk fermentation phase: if long-term yields continue to surge, further downward testing of key supports will occur, with accumulating downside risk;
3) Core trading principle: never gamble on unilateral big rallies, all rebounds near resistance should prioritize reducing positions and active risk avoidance, firmly avoid chasing highs.
Summary
This round of long-term bond yield breakdown is a macro structural turning point unseen in over a decade, not a short-term news hype.
The market has entered a new cycle of high rates, high volatility, and low incremental growth.
Following the trend, strictly controlling positions, refusing to bottom-fish, and not chasing rebounds is the most prudent survival approach at this stage.
⚠️This is only a personal macro market analysis and does not constitute any investment advice. The macro market is highly volatile; always respect risks and trade prudently
#BTC #USTreasuryYields #MacroMarket #CryptoMarketAnalysis #TradingRiskControl #AssetRepricingThe 30-year U.S. Treasury yield has stabilized above 5.3%, hitting a new high since 2007, while the 10-year yield approaches 4.75%. The old equilibrium of global long-term interest rates has been broken.
The U.S. fiscal deficit remains high, with massive Treasury issuance continuously flooding the market. Inflation remains stubborn, still far from the 2% policy target. Excess supply combined with sticky inflation jointly push bond yields higher. Many foreign countries continue to reduce their holdings of U.S. Treasuries, with offshore buyers steadily exiting. New bond issuances can only rely on domestic capital to absorb them, forcing financing costs upward. Large-scale corporate bond issuance further competes for long-term funds, and even Japanese government bonds are facing sell-offs. This is not a problem of a single country but a global bond market repricing.
In the crypto market, it is important to distinguish between short-term and medium-term logics and not to view things one-sidedly.
In the short term, U.S. Treasury yields continue to rise, lifting risk-free returns and making income-generating assets more attractive. BTC is a non-yielding asset, so the opportunity cost of holding it rises sharply, weakening institutional allocation willingness, hindering new capital inflows, raising leverage costs, and making the market prone to passive deleveraging. Volatility spikes will be significantly amplified.
At this stage, blindly bottom-fishing is to be avoided; a price pullback does not necessarily mean undervaluation. As long as long-term yields remain high, rebounds are mostly technical corrections and unlikely to develop into a sustained trend.
BTC
Currently suppressed by high interest rates, its valuation rebound space is limited. Maintaining key support levels will keep it in a consolidation pattern; if yields continue to surge, it will further test lower defense points. Avoid betting on a one-sided surge; reduce positions when rebounds reach resistance zones and refuse to chase highs.
ETH
Lacking independent macro hedging logic, its price action is highly dependent on the broader market. In a high-interest-rate environment, rebound strength will be constrained. Base holdings can be retained, but heavy positions or adding more is not advisable. Only when U.S. Treasury yields show clear signs of decline can upward momentum open up.
High-beta assets like SOL, XRP, and SNDK are most sensitive to interest rate changes. During rising rate cycles, market risk appetite contracts, and capital prioritizes safety, suppressing altcoin upside elasticity. Avoid opening new positions; only very small positions for short-term trades are suitable, not for long-term holding.
However, the other side must also be seen: the continuous new highs in long-term yields reflect hidden risks in the U.S. dollar debt system. Many countries are reducing U.S. Treasury holdings, and the trend of de-dollarization continues. In the short term, rates suppress crypto assets; in the medium term, debt pressure accumulates, and U.S. dollar credit continues to be consumed, gradually revealing Bitcoin’s hedging properties.
Two forces pull against each other: short-term focus on rates, medium-term focus on credit. The big picture remains unchanged; only the market rhythm has shifted.
Practical advice:
Priority now is defense; leverage must be kept low. Do not ignore short-term valuation-killing risks with medium-term logic.
Do not heavily bottom-fish; patiently wait for signals that U.S. Treasury yields have peaked and are falling before considering increasing positions. Exit short-term rebounds at resistance; mid-term layouts require confirmation from macro signals.

#Anthropic信贷拟超百亿美元 Brothers, tonight at 2 a.m. FOMC meeting minutes, the biggest macro bombshell of the week is about to land. The July meeting itself saw a rare three opposition votes against rate hikes, leading to huge internal divisions. This minutes will reveal all the details of the Fed's internal disputes. Remember, this is a delayed document from the July meeting, followed by a series of cooling data on CPI, PPI, and nonfarm payrolls, but the market still needs to scrutinize the committee members' true attitudes. Currently, the mainstream market pricing is that maintaining rates unchanged in September is more likely, but the option for rate hikes is still kept. Don't fantasize about rate cuts for now. Coupled with the US-Iran geopolitical tensions and oil prices disrupting inflation expectations, we should not simply bet on one side tonight. Three scenarios are being deduced: 1️⃣ Neutral benchmark scenario (most probable) The minutes acknowledge inflation easing but repeatedly emphasize that inflation remains above the 2% target, leaving room for future rate hikes and no signal of rate cuts. Market performance: BTC initially fluctuated with pins inserted, BTC support at 63,200, resistance at 65,000, likely to shake out within a range and amplify market volatility. 2️⃣ Hawkish Bias: Beyond Expectations (Risk Scenario) Many committee members expressed concerns that inflation remains sticky, expressing concerns that geopolitical factors are pushing up energy inflation, and hinting that further rate hikes are still being prepared. The US dollar and US Treasury yields have risen, putting pressure on risk assets. BTC is likely to test around 62,000, and the declines of meme coins DOGE and SOL will be amplified. 3️⃣ Dovish Surprise (Low Probability) Most members agree that inflation continues to cool, and their willingness to raise interest rates has dropped sharply. Risk assets saw a short-term sentiment rebound, with BTC surging to 65,000The market is about to undergo a major shift this week! Here’s a summary of five core key events so everyone can be prepared in advance
This week, the global market is destined to be turbulent, with several major events happening simultaneously that will directly determine the asset direction for the near future. Let me break them down clearly for you:
1. Strait of Hormuz situation may see critical progress this week
This global energy lifeline is very likely to experience significant developments this week. Japan and South Korea heavily rely on Middle Eastern crude oil imports, and persistently high oil prices have been the biggest drag on inflation in both countries. Once the navigation risk in the strait eases and the situation cools down, inflation pressure will quickly relax, and the stock markets in Japan and South Korea will directly benefit from a recovery boost.
If you want to play this opportunity, focus on KORU (long South Korean stock index) and SOXL (3x leveraged US semiconductor stocks).
2. Wednesday at 1:00 AM, 10-year US Treasury auction, a quarterly major test
I will be monitoring this auction with you throughout; it carries great weight and is considered the barometer for the US Treasury market this quarter.
The 10-year US Treasury is the anchor for the global risk-free rate. The bid-to-cover ratio, overseas demand, and yield on accepted bids will directly set the tone: whether the market is pricing in a soft economic landing or an early arrival of recession expectations. The auction results will influence the trajectories of gold, US stocks, and crypto assets across the board.
3. The recent market weakness truth: it’s not fear of earnings reports but recession risk aversion
Even though CPI, PPI, and employment data maintain an easing expectation of the Federal Reserve pausing rate hikes, last week’s sharp decline in US consumer data has sparked concerns about accelerating economic downturn.
The recent market pullback is not because investors fear Nvidia’s earnings missing expectations, but because capital is entering recession risk aversion mode, collectively reducing risk exposure and prioritizing cash and safe-haven assets.
4. The best current core position: continue holding gold
Under multiple conditions of recession expectations, geopolitical conflicts, and repeated surges in long-term bond yields, the long-term allocation logic for gold remains unshaken. Don’t easily give up your position due to minor fluctuations; it remains the most stable safety cushion in the current market.
5. Wednesday White House Cryptocurrency Summit, don’t overlook it
Senior regulators from the SEC and CFTC will be present, along with executives from leading industry companies like Coinbase, Robinhood, and Ripple.
Bitwise executive Matt Hougan has already pointed out that tokenization of real assets will be the core focus of this summit. The pace of traditional financial institutions entering the crypto space and the tone of US crypto regulation are likely to send key signals at this meeting, directly impacting mid-to-long-term capital flows for BTC and ETH.
This week is packed with variables, with geopolitical, US Treasury, and policy catalysts converging. Avoid blindly trading frequently; closely watch key event outcomes and follow the trend rather than betting on direction.
⚠️ The above is only a macro market information summary and does not constitute any investment advice. The market is highly volatile; be sure to strictly control your position size and manage risk well.
#MacroMarketAnalysis #USTreasuryAuction #GeopoliticalTradingOpportunities #GoldAllocation #CryptoPolicyOutlook#SEC提出《加密资产监管》草案 The SEC has finally taken action.
On August 18, the SEC officially released the "Crypto Asset Regulatory Rules" draft. Against the backdrop of the CLARITY Act stalling in the Senate, it bypassed Congress and directly drew a "temporary runway" for the industry.
The core points are threefold:
First, two financing exemption channels. Small projects can raise up to $5 million within four years, while larger ones can raise up to $75 million every 12 months without completing full securities registration. However, they must provide principle-based disclosures to investors, and those using the $75 million limit must also submit financial statements and ongoing reports.
Second, a safe harbor. After the project party completes or permanently ceases the promised management work, the tokens can no longer be considered securities. This essentially provides a written answer to the issues left over from the XRP lawsuit.
Third, a 60-day public comment period before finalization.
How to view this?
Don’t get too excited in the short term. This is just a proposal and still some distance from final implementation. Also, the "innovation exemption" that the market previously expected did not appear this time.
But the long-term direction is positive — moving from "enforcement regulation" to "rule-based regulation," providing projects with a clear compliance path. Although the rules could be overturned by the next administration at any time, and the act offers longer-term certainty, having something is better than nothing.
The CFTC will also hold a meeting this Friday to discuss crypto regulation. Everyone, the regulatory boots are dropping one by one. The direction is clear, but don’t rush the pace, $BTC $ETH $SNDK Currently, traditional mining companies are all transitioning to or supporting AI data centers. If you carefully read the financial reports of several traditional mining companies listed on Nasdaq, you will clearly understand what Er Ge is talking about. The key financial statements to focus on are: the balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement.
At present, there is no new narrative emerging in the crypto space, and a bull market will not arrive soon. Er Bing and Doge are even less recommended to touch. In the crypto world, except for BTC, the risk of other coins going to zero far exceeds your imagination. In the eyes of crypto veterans, except for the big coin, others are altcoins.
The era of getting rich quickly through crypto is basically over. Compared to buying BTC, investing in Bitcoin-related stocks in the US stock market may not necessarily yield better returns. If you are willing, carefully compare the gains of crypto cycles with the gains of Bitcoin-related stocks in the US market, and you will understand why Er Ge says this, for example, MSTR. $BTC $ETH $MOVE #SEC提出《加密资产监管》草案 On August 18, the U.S. SEC officially released a brand-new draft regulation of crypto assets. This rule is part of the SEC's self-introduced regulatory path, while the congressional CLARITY Act is a separate system. In the short term, it will have differentiated impacts on different types of crypto assets, with four categories of assets being analyzed and analyzed. First, BTC and ETH. The draft mainly targets token issuance financing and poses almost no direct constraints on already highly decentralized BTC and ETH, with more short-term emotional disturbances. The market will see this draft as a signal of accelerated regulatory frameworks. If interpreted as regulation moving toward standardization, it will boost institutions' long-term entry expectations; However, if the market worries that the SEC may further tighten its enforcement standards, it will suppress overall risk appetite, with the two major major coins more likely to follow overall market sentiment fluctuations. Second, platform tokens like OKB and BNB, which are centralized platform tokens. Platform token issuers are clearly centralized and fall under the SEC's regulatory scrutiny. The new regulations clarify the registration exemption path for token issuance, which will benefit long-term industry compliance and development; In the short term, the market may worry about subsequent regulatory inquiries about centralized projects, which may amplify market volatility and intensify the risk aversion competition among funds. Third, the vast majority of small-scale knockoff coins will see intense differentiation. The draft introduces tiered financing exemptions and decentralized safe harbor clauses. Projects that meet the criteria for decentralization will see reduced regulatory uncertainty and a short-term recovery in sentiment; Meanwhile, small-cap coins with strong centralized issuance narratives will face clearer trading in the future先说结论： $0.635 不是随便买的位置。 它踩在 8/18 洗盘后的「成本博弈区」里——赌对了是低吸，赌错了是接最后一棒。 我在 $0.635 建仓，OKX 现价约 $0.634，基本平本。 下面从庄家手法 + 交易计划两层拆开。 一、硬数据（OKX FIL/USDT） · 现价约 $0.634 · 我的建仓 $0.635 · 24h 区间 $0.610 – $0.637 · 24h 成交额约 628 万 USDT · 近 7 天 -5.3%，近 30 天 -13.7% · 距 5 月高点 $1.32 约 -52% 存储板块里 FIL 这周偏弱：AR -0.3%，ICP +1.4%，FIL -5.3%。 不是板块 beta 行情，是 FIL 自己在走独立洗盘结构。 二、价格结构：两次放量砸盘，0.635 在第二坑边缘 近三个月 FIL 从 $0.72 一带一路阴跌。 两次关键洗盘： · 8/12：从 $0.71 砸到 $0.658，单日成交 546 万，放量阴线 · 8/18：再砸到 $0.609，单日成交 849 万，近 7 日均值 2.3 倍 8/18 这根 K 很关键： 低点SanDisk SNDK Two-Day Sharp Decline Review #闪迪回落逾9%，存储估值分歧加剧
After a violent rebound and surge the previous day, it then experienced a significant pullback, dropping more than 9% in a single day with heavy volume selling, trapping all short-term chasing funds.
🔑 Key Price Levels
Resistance: 1720‑1780 (dense area of rebound sell-offs)
Support: 1600 (today's low), next level 1540
📉 Core Reasons for the Decline
❶ Positive news already priced in, profit-taking escape
Although there are positives like AI long-term contracts and buybacks, the market had already priced in these benefits in advance. After the rebound, funds concentrated on cashing out, a typical case of "good news already priced in".
❷ Renewed concerns about the storage cycle
The market worries about major manufacturers expanding production, increasing flash supply, signaling the price hike cycle is nearing its end. Gross margins are unlikely to continue rising, and high valuations are being cut by the market.
❸ Weak demand on the consumer side remains
Performance relies mainly on AI data centers, while mobile and PC storage demand is sluggish. If AI capital expenditure falls short of expectations, earnings will be pressured.
👉 Two Market Scenarios
1. Bearish scenario: breaking below 1600 support will deepen the pullback, targeting around 1540, with rebounds being mere pauses in the downtrend.
2. Bullish scenario: holding 1600 support and reclaiming 1720 is necessary for a recovery rebound, with volume expansion as a required condition.
⚠️ Summary:
The big bullish candles in the past two days do not indicate a trend reversal, just a correction after overselling. Storage is a strong cyclical sector; after a sharp rise, a sharp fall is common. Avoid blindly bottom-fishing, manage risk well, and avoid heavy positions for speculation. #SEC提出《加密资产监管》草案
"Compliance Gate Wide Open: SEC's $75 Million Token Exemption Is Handing Projects an Exit Ticket"
On August 18, 2026, the SEC officially released the "Crypto Asset Regulation" draft. The new rules directly set exemption thresholds at $5 million and $75 million, waiving the full IPO registration process.
The most eye-catching clause in the draft is the "safe harbor" exit mechanism. Once a team fulfills its development commitments or formally terminates management duties, the related tokens can completely decouple from the original investment contracts and will no longer be regulated as securities. Issuers get a green light to legally raise funds domestically in the U.S., along with a golden pass to avoid securities fraud lawsuits.
The compliance halo masks the real cash extraction in the secondary market. Low-threshold token issuance will bring a massive supply of new assets. Institutional seed round entry costs are often just a few cents, but when pushed to exchanges, the fully circulating valuation can easily reach hundreds of millions of dollars. Retail investors chase highs in the spot market, but once the project triggers the safe harbor conditions and exits, market-making and support funds instantly withdraw, leaving only the secondary market to bear the dilution of tens of times the tokens and long-term erosion from funding rates.
Regulation has loosened the shackles on startup teams. The spot buyers stranded on the liquidity retreat beach will ultimately have to bear the losses themselves as secondary market holders. $BTC $SNDK Summary
1. SanDisk (60% win rate, breakeven)
1) Strong bullish trend on 4-hour chart, go long. After a reverse breakout, the market immediately moves in the trend direction, chase in. (1 win (took a small profit), 1 loss (stopped out, indecisive exit caused large loss)).
2) Strong bullish trend on 4-hour chart, breakout of resistance level. (1 win, took a small profit)
3) After resistance breakout, pullback holds support. (Did not trade, missed SanDisk main uptrend)
4) 4-hour downtrend, long at support level, after breakout failed to hold, quickly reversed, treat as failed breakout, go long again after retaking breakout.
(1 loss (reluctant to stop loss caused big loss), 1 win (took a small profit))
Summary: In SanDisk trending markets, use right-side trading, trade breakouts, after reverse breakout returning to trend has higher win rate (market makers like to shake out).
2. Hynix (all wins, decent profit)
1) Strong bullish trend on 4-hour chart. Short-term resistance breakout, pullback holds support, go long. (Win, caught a trend move, hard to hold, closed with half profit retracement)
2) 4-hour bullish trend top pullback, long at support. (Win, then quickly dropped)
3. Areas to improve
1) Stop loss needs to be decisive, exit quickly if entry logic is wrong, trading pursues probability and cost-effectiveness. SanDisk pullback.
2) Do not trade casually, only trade high certainty setups, otherwise hard to hold (non-certainty trades are hard to plan and hold), losses can cause emotional trading. (SanDisk loss, worried about profit retracement closed out Yitai too)
3) Further overcome mindset of trying to break even, fear of missing out, and profit retracement anxiety.1.4 The Misleading Cost Price in Brokerage Apps (2)
If you break down each lot of stocks or each transaction, the perspective becomes similar to physical trading.
Buying 1000 shares at 8 yuan, then selling 500 shares at 10 yuan, the sold portion made a profit of 1000 yuan.
The remaining shares still have a cost of 8 yuan.
If you sell all remaining shares at 7 yuan, this part loses 500 yuan, combined with the previous profit, the total profit is 500 yuan.
If you sell all remaining shares at 9 yuan, this part gains 500 yuan, combined with the previous profit, the total profit is 1500 yuan.
So don’t be misled by the cost price of 6 yuan shown in the app. If the original reason for buying at 8 yuan still holds, then you should buy when the price drops to 8 yuan now.
It’s like a clothing store that bought a batch at 80 yuan, sold half at 100 yuan, and then sees the same goods at 80 yuan in the wholesale market — of course, you’d continue to restock.
#investment #stocks #finance$BTC Yushu Technology's listing triggered intense fluctuations in the on-chain $UNITREE perpetual contracts. The current core conflict lies in the short-term risk appetite transmitted from the STAR Market sentiment premium to the crypto market, and the valuation disconnect caused by the lack of equity anchoring in on-chain derivatives.
The market transmission mechanism shows that the STAR Market's opening surge of 629.44% boosted short-term risk appetite in the embodied intelligence sector. However, this price movement was not accompanied by an improvement in overall liquidity, with macro mainline funds remaining cautious, limiting the hotspot to position battles in specific derivatives and thematic tokens.
The current driver ranking is: first, the local risk appetite increase triggered by off-exchange sentiment; second, the squeeze of high-leverage short-term positions; and last, the lowest willingness of mainstream funds to follow.
On the upside scenario, if the $UNITREE contract open interest continues to rise and the long basis maintains a positive premium, risk appetite will continue to spread to sector-related tokens. The observation variable is the year-on-year growth rate of total on-chain open interest; if open interest stagnates at a high level, the upside logic fails.
On the downside scenario, if sentiment wanes causing concentrated profit-taking, perpetual contracts without equity support will face rapid squeezes and liquidation risks. The observation variable is the slope of the funding rate turning from positive to negative; once long leverage is actively reduced, the downside scenario will accelerate.
The condition for invalidating these judgments is if macro mainline funds end their cautious stance early and heavily intervene in the broader market, or if this sector introduces tradable assets with actual dividend rights, thereby breaking the fragile balance solely reliant on sentiment transmission.
The most important observation variables in the next 24 hours to 7 days are the change slope of the $UNITREE perpetual contract open interest and the frequency of funding rate switching near the zero axis.

I am the mid-term intelligence guy. Watching the global market, the 30-year US Treasury yield surged to 5.31% on Monday and touched 5.323% again on Tuesday, hitting a new high since June 2007. This long upper shadow is not noise; it signals a re-anchoring of pricing.
The logic has three layers: a nearly $2 trillion fiscal deficit snowballing, debt surpassing $39.9 trillion, supply crushing the long end; high Middle East oil prices plus AI giants crazily issuing bonds, competing for funds and pushing up term premiums; the Fed’s “higher for longer” policy being priced in early.
The transmission chain is clear—risk-free rates rise, Nasdaq growth stocks get valuation cuts, BTC liquidity premium gets compressed, gold’s safe-haven aura temporarily fades, institutions cut duration and favor short-term bonds.
Mid-term intelligence guy’s strategy: don’t counter-trend buy long bonds at the bottom, don’t chase high-duration assets; hold the base position, wait for one of three signals: indirect demand recovery in US Treasury auctions, CPI disproving stickiness, or Fed easing hints before making a move. Keep position steady, don’t get scared off by the long end nor catch falling knives.

$SNDK 1.4 The Misleading Nature of Brokerage App Cost Prices (1)
Some time ago, you bought 1,000 shares of a certain stock at 8 yuan each, investing 8,000 yuan. A few days later, you sold 500 shares at 10 yuan, receiving 5,000 yuan. At this point, the app shows the cost price as 6 yuan ((8000-5000)/500).
A few days later, the stock price dropped to 8 yuan, and you want to buy another 500 shares, but you notice a problem: your holding cost is 6 yuan. If you buy 500 shares at 8 yuan now, the cost price after purchase would become 7 yuan ((6*500 + 8*500)/1000). The cost price is raised by 1 yuan after buying, which seems unprofitable. But then you think, something seems off.
Imagine a clothing store that stocks 10 pieces of clothing at a cost price of 80 yuan each. After selling 5 pieces at 100 yuan each, what is the cost price of the remaining 5 pieces? It’s still 80 yuan. The 5 pieces sold earned 100 yuan profit, but in the stock market, it’s different. Buying a batch and selling part of it—why is the cost price different in these two cases?
In physical goods sales, the profit or loss is calculated on the sold portion and does not affect the cost price of the remaining inventory.
But in the stock market, the sold portion does not have profit or loss calculated separately; instead, it is used to change the cost price.
This confusion causes countless people to obsess over the cost price, leading to wrong trading decisions.
For example, in the above case, if the stock price falls to 6.5 yuan, many people remain calm; if it falls to 5.5 yuan, many start to panic.The extreme premium on the STAR Market is spreading to on-chain derivatives, creating intense volatility tension between the high valuation of spot assets and purely sentiment-driven instruments.
$UNITREE perpetual contracts saw a sharp increase in trading volume after being listed on spot markets, with short-term speculative funds quickly driving up market volatility to high levels.
The industrial enthusiasm in traditional equity markets has boosted attention to related on-chain narratives, and mainstream exchanges have rapidly followed by launching corresponding contract tools to capture liquidity.
The pricing anchor of OTC stocks is projected onto on-chain contracts, but these derivatives lack actual equity and dividend rights support, relying solely on capital speculation to maintain high turnover.
If the spot-side support remains strong and on-chain open interest steadily expands, sentiment premiums may spread within a short cycle to embodied intelligence concept tokens, extending the speculative window.
Once spot-side capital relay weakens causing valuation to fall, the highly leveraged long positions in the derivatives market will face liquidation squeeze risks due to rapid basis convergence.
Macro funds are currently still focused on core policy meetings; if mainstream asset trading volume remains sluggish, cross-market local pulses will be falsified as mere stock consumption.
In the next 24 hours, the most important variable to watch is whether the high turnover rate on the spot side can support the basis premium of on-chain perpetual contracts.

0xEA5785E1727DE2Ba2CEfd102Cb2Dd91E018675e1$ETH has been very strong these days, push for me, SanDisk $SNDK has dropped quite sharply. Here's a simple analysis of the current $ETH market trend.
From the microstructure of the order book, the proportion of active buy orders has risen to 58%, while the slope of the sell order book thickness is steepening, reflecting liquidity concentration around 1922 above. A short-term breakout requires consuming about 2.3 times the average daily depth.
Considering the imbalance between buying and selling and volatility pricing, the current rebound is mainly driven by short covering rather than new buying. If the open interest does not expand accordingly, the price is likely to retest the 1900 psychological level. At that time, passive stop-loss orders in the order book may intensify the downward momentum.
My trading advice: short between 1920-1950, target 1850-1800.
#财报观察员：小米Q2财报出炉，是汽车救场还是手机拖后腿？ Just saw a guy going long on CRCL with 4x leverage. You can tell this trade isn’t for casual strolling.
The coin is CRCL, 4x leverage, long position, entry price 71.20.
Quantity 2500, position size $178,005, quite a hefty move, but big size doesn’t mean clear-headed.
These on-chain alerts are just for reference; don’t blindly follow others going long out of excitement. The market loves to punish emotional trades like this.
4x leverage isn’t the highest, but it’s definitely not a joke. If the direction is wrong, stubbornly holding on means feeding your principal to the market.
Don’t treat others’ trades as gospel. If you really want to follow, first decide when to admit you’re wrong and cut losses. Don’t hold on until you start doubting your life choices.

They have a person named Jeff Holden, the head of trader development, whose job is half to mentor newcomers and half to coach traders who make millions or tens of millions in annual profits.
Recently, I saw him talk about a method for digging into trading problems, which is quite interesting.
This method comes from Toyota and targets the number one mistake by asking "why" five times in a row, writing down each layer step by step.
For example, a real case: many people's number one mistake is selling too early.
Why do they always make small profits and big losses? Because they always sell too early.
Why do they always sell too early? Because whenever the price fluctuates, they fear giving back profits.
Why fear giving back profits? Because they are actually uncertain about how the trade should normally conclude.
Why are they uncertain? Because they only studied how to enter the trade, not what the market should look like after entry.
Why didn't they study that? Because they always thought that as long as the entry signal was correct, everything would be fine.
At this point, the problem becomes clear: the issue is not impulsiveness, but the complete lack of an exit rule, not knowing when to leave, and making decisions based solely on fear.
Most people stop after asking one or two layers and only get surface answers. But research shows that the real solution often emerges only after asking the fourth or fifth "why," so this step is diagnosis—don’t rush to prescribe a solution as soon as you see the mistake. $BTC Today's worst headline goes to SK Hynix $SKHY
Korean stocks dropped -9.5% intraday, KOSPI triggered SIDECAR to pause programmatic selling, US ADR closed at 155.62 dollars, down -9.2%. Don't bottom-fish yet, the price is still falling.
The sell-off is sector-wide, not just SK Hynix's own problem. Overnight, the entire memory sector collapsed (SanDisk -9%, Micron -7%, Western Digital -7%, Seagate -9%), the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index down -4.98%. The root cause is the surge in long-term interest rates (30-year US Treasury at 5.33%) which collectively crushed valuations of AI-duration assets. WSJ revealed tech giants have $3 trillion in off-balance-sheet commitments, "big short" Burry calls it a triple compression for AI, a systemic pullback, not a stock-specific negative.
SK Hynix's own fundamentals haven't collapsed. HBM demand boosted its revenue by +257%, but the market is talking about HBM4 shipment delays and pricing below expectations, causing a wave of disappointment selling; previously Nomura raised the target price to 4 million KRW, the rise was too steep and expectations too high, so any slight miss triggered a stampede.
Compared to Nvidia which only dipped 0.07% to close at 225, NVDA is the ballast in the AI chain, SK Hynix is the highest beta with the most elasticity, surging the most on the way up and falling the hardest on the way down. Today it released panic for the entire sector.
Trading strategy: don't bottom-fish, wait for a pullback to the 5-day moving average (around 1.65 million KRW for Korean stocks / about 145-150 for US ADR) before reconsidering; those trapped should reduce positions on rebounds. The long-term logic for HBM is solid, but short-term sentiment has collapsed, don't catch a falling knife before stabilization. BTC is still hovering around 64,300, down 0.75% in the last 24 hours. It surged to 65,000 yesterday but couldn't hold, getting pushed back, though it didn't drop too deeply.
The ETF side finally reversed.
After three consecutive days of outflows, on August 18, the Bitcoin spot ETF saw a single-day net inflow of $298 million. BlackRock's IBIT absorbed $160 million, Fidelity's FBTC brought in $112 million, together accounting for over 90%. Moreover, no Bitcoin ETF recorded a net outflow that day. Ethereum ETFs also warmed up, with a net inflow of $30.85 million.
But don't get too excited yet — in the previous five trading days, a total of $385 million flowed out, and this rebound only recovered 35.6%. Institutions are slowly coming back, but it's not a full recovery yet.
There is a signal on-chain worth noting.
In the past 60 days, whales have cumulatively increased their holdings by about 43,000 BTC, valued at approximately $2.75 billion. This accumulation started when BTC dropped near 60,000. And it's not just one big holder buying; it's a widespread action across different holding tiers. Some are selling, while others are quietly accumulating.
Technically, EMA50 is at 63,853, EMA200 at 63,832, and BTC is currently above both lines. MACD shows a golden cross, indicating a short-term bullish structure. But the strong resistance between 65,000-66,000 remains; if it can't break through, consolidation will continue.

I think the key point is not that it invested 2,100 $BTC, but that it is preparing to raise funds to buy coins simultaneously through both the Japanese and U.S. capital markets.
Metaplanet will inject about $132 million in BTC and $2.5 million in cash into Super League ($SLE), which is listed on Nasdaq. After the transaction is completed, it will hold about 95.7% of the shares, and the company will be renamed Superplanet.
The logic behind this is simple: raise funds once in Japan, then again in the U.S., directing Wall Street capital toward the same Bitcoin treasury strategy.
This is a long-term positive for $BTC, but for investors, the DAT company adds another layer of management, financing, and dilution risk.
If you can hold BTC directly, is this layer of packaging worth the risk to you? $CORE released a narrative this morning centered on one idea: “Real usage means real value for Coretoshis.” At first glance, the logic sounds convincing. But the more important question is whether ecosystem activity actually translates into sustained demand for the $CORE token. The secondary market is still dealing with some very real pressures: weak price performance, underwater holders, token unlocks, accumulated supply, and a lack of obvious incremental capital. Yet instead of addressing tho
