Major data hits in the early morning—don't hold positions and take risks overnight—just pocket your gains first.
Resting and waiting, a new round of major market rally is about to arrive. #美联储即将公布利率决议 $KAITO This project was once a hot topic, but it no longer has its former glory. Currently, the price of $KAITO is above one-third of its peak. But can it still regain one-third of its former glory now? Probably not. At least for me, I think it no longer has the brilliance it once had at a third. Back when it was at its peak, almost half of bloggers' posts included it. And now? How many people mention it? Very few are there. —————————————————— Let's take a look at its data. It can be seen that at the beginning of the month, the long-short ratio of $KAITO contracts experienced a sharp rise. Looking at the candlestick chart, its price did not change much at that time. In other words, during sideways trading, the long-short ratio of $KAITO contracts rises rapidly, meaning many bears are turning long at that price level. Afterwards, as $KAITO continued to rise, its contract long-short ratio gradually declined. I compared the candlestick chart. When the contract long-short ratio dropped back to the level before the surge, the price of $KAITO was roughly around one US dollar. In other words, when the price was around one dollar, even those lying in wait at the bottom would leave. After that, we can see that its open interest surged rapidly, while the long-short ratio further declined. This indicates that as its price continues to rise, short-selling funds are increasing massively. A coin can still maintain its position with so much capital to short it#FinancialReportObserver: Microsoft, Meta, Amazon Report Tonight
Financial Report Observer | Microsoft and Meta report first tonight, Amazon follows tomorrow night: The "trust vote" of the AI spending season has begun
In the early morning of July 30 Beijing time (after US market close on July 29), Microsoft and Meta kick off this round of tech giant earnings season; Amazon will follow after the US market close on July 30.
This wave is no longer about "whether AI is growing," but the market is scrutinizing: how much real cash is returned from hundreds of billions of dollars in capital expenditures?
------
📌 Microsoft (after close 7/29): Azure maintains pace + Copilot monetization
• Expected EPS about $4.22, revenue about $87.5–87.7 billion
• Key focus: Can Azure's fixed-rate growth hold within 39%–41% range (about 40% last quarter)
• Copilot paid seats and ARPU changes in Microsoft 365 Business edition with built-in Copilot are key evidence of AI monetization on the software side
• Concerns: Fiscal 2026 capex plan about $190 billion, last quarter Capex already hit $31.9 billion, cloud gross margin declining, free cash flow dropped from $25.7 billion to $15.8 billion, investment curve steeper than revenue curve
Microsoft's challenge: Keep cloud growth from slowing, avoid large Capex upward revisions, and Copilot must show "chargeable" data.
------
📌 Meta (after close 7/29): Advertising base vs massive spending
• Expected revenue about $60.1 billion (YoY +26.6%), EPS about $7.13–7.24
• Advertising revenue expected over $59 billion, Advantage+ automated ad tools have become the main engine, AI recommendations bring "volume and price increase"
• But Capex is the elephant in the room: 2026 guidance $125–145 billion, Q2 estimated about $33.7 billion (nearly doubled YoY), Bank of America even guesses the upper limit might reach $150 billion
• Without AWS-like external cloud revenue hedge, Reality Labs + self-developed computing power rely entirely on internal ad profits, free cash flow turning negative is the biggest valuation anchor
Meta's challenge: Can ad growth cover Capex interest + depreciation erosion? Will Zuckerberg introduce a new narrative of "Meta Compute renting computing power externally"?
------
📌 Amazon (after close 7/30): AWS lifeline + cash flow recovery
• Expected EPS about $1.82–1.85
• AWS growth rebounded to 28% last quarter (fastest in 15 quarters), backlog contracts over $360 billion, the trump card to prove the logic
• But full-year Capex plan near $200 billion, free cash flow in past 12 months only $1.2 billion, last time market saw expansion plans directly triggered an 8% single-day drop
• Self-developed Trainium/Inferentia chips annualized over $20 billion, retail advertising business profit margin, all auxiliary verification points
Amazon's challenge: AWS must not slow down, operating margin must not collapse, provide a clear path for "when free cash flow returns to positive."
------
🎯 The real variables tonight and tomorrow night
Alphabet set a benchmark last week with "record profits but a 7% drop due to increased Capex" — beating expectations is not enough, spending discipline is the emotional switch.
Common red lines for the three:
1. Whether cloud/Azure/AWS growth meets targets
2. Whether capital expenditure guidance continues to be revised upward
3. Whether AI revenue (Copilot, Advantage+, AWS AI services) shows independent acceleration
4. The degree of sacrifice in free cash flow and gross margin
Crypto and Nasdaq leveraged funds are also watching: If giants collectively "continue to increase Capex without slowing," the computing power chain (Nvidia, Broadcom, storage) benefits short-term but faces more anxiety in long-term discounting; if they collectively signal "peak passed/returns realized," growth stock valuation pressure will ease.

SL: 0.00755Countdown to the Federal Reserve decision! The "crux" for BTC and the US stock market is actually not about whether to raise interest rates or not
At 2 AM Beijing time on July 30, the global market's attention will focus on the Federal Reserve's latest interest rate decision and Chairman Powell's subsequent press conference.
The biggest uncertainty in this meeting is that the market has completely lost the "forward guidance" reference point and can no longer bet in advance.
According to the latest data from CME's "FedWatch":
🔹 Probability of keeping rates unchanged: 69.5%
🔹 Probability of a 25 basis point rate hike: 30.5%
Although "holding steady" seems like the most likely event, the 30.5% expectation of a rate hike far exceeds the level of a regular meeting. What is even more alarming is a statistic from Bank of America: since 1994, the Fed has never suddenly acted when the market's rate hike probability was below 60%. If an unexpected rate hike occurs this time, it would be an unprecedented "hawkish surprise."
Currently, macro data is in an awkward "tug of war":
✅ Dovish signals: July consumer confidence dropped to 90.8, employment expectations weakened, household income and consumer confidence declined, clear signs of economic cooling.
❌ Hawkish signals: international oil prices rebounded, pushing up energy inflation expectations, and service sector inflation remains very sticky.
In summary: the economy is cooling, but inflation has not been completely extinguished. This "stagflation" sign is the Fed's most troublesome problem.
For the crypto market (BTC) and US stocks, what often triggers major moves is not the interest rate numbers themselves, but Powell's few words about the "future path" during the press conference. Tonight, keep a close eye on Powell's "next sentence"!
#美联储即将公布利率决议
$BTC $ETH $SNDK SK Hynix's excellent financial report has once again dragged down the Korean stock market. Has the AI narrative really collapsed?
To answer first: the decline is panic, but don't be mindless. The logic of AI narrative changes and is challenged by China, but it does not mean the collapse is over
Is SK Hynix's financial report good?
The financial report is excellent, which is a satisfactory report. Its profitability remains among the strongest in the world, but the validation logic of artificial intelligence has changed
Previously, we looked at whether financial reports exceeded expectations, overall profits, and future growth; now, we look at orders, AI commercialization, and capital expenditure to verify whether tech company valuations are reasonable
Three verification logics for this week's earnings report plus macro viewing:
a. Does inflation and growth data strengthen or weaken expectations for high interest rates?
b. Do tech companies' profits grow faster than capital expenditure growth?
c. Between interest rate pressure and profit improvement, which side dominates?
The core of this verification logic is whether the macro view of U.S. economic growth matches the high valuation of artificial intelligence, and the micro perspective of whether current corporate earnings and the potential for future AI commercialization support current stock prices.
When interest rate pressures and profit improvements cannot be met by the market, high interest rates will inevitably make financing conditions harder to worry about, which will also lead to selling pressure
SK Hynix's core growth in its financial report still relies on HBM high-bandwidth memory, which is priced much higher than Pudong DRAM, with gross margins higher than traditional storage and full capacity. SK Hynix's overall financial report gives the market the answer — record-breaking revenue and record-high profits
Unfortunately, this excellent financial report still couldn't satisfy investors' inflated desires, leading to a drop in stock prices and a start of valuation adjustments
Market expectations for Hynix were too high, which was the main reason for the decline after the company's strong financial report. The market originally expected revenue of 84 trillion KRW, but in reality, it was only 79 trillion KRW, and operating profit was also below expectations, causing the stock price to plummet
It should be noted here that the capital market does not price stock prices based on the present, but rather on the future. The trading is about expectations. If market expectations for companies become overheated and stock prices continue to rise, this is a valuation bubble. This bubble requires companies to support it with solid performance; otherwise, valuations will adjust and stock prices will fall
Today's SK Hynix is just like that—the decline isn't due to poor earnings, but rather from overly hot market expectations. Such high expectations put more pressure on future earnings and teach the market a "painful" lesson
As a storage leader, SK's stock price drop has also brought on valuation adjustments that have spread to the entire storage sector, driving global AI companies down. However, according to information from company management, it's clear that storage hasn't collapsed yet! #海力士业绩创纪录但不及预期, storage stocks experienced sharp fluctuations
1. HBM demand still exists and has not clearly slowed down. The company believes that strong AI investment will drive continued growth in HBM demand, high-end product orders remain stable, and future sales space remains
2. Management maintains a cautious attitude toward unlimited expansion, stating that it will not expand indefinitely and will arrange capital expenditures based on customer orders to avoid the possibility of price crashes caused by future market expectations of oversupply.
These two points are enough to support corporate confidence for SK Hynix in the coming quarters. If there is demand, cautious production and supply balance are maintained. It's not that storage will always be strong, but as long as demand exists and production is not blindly expanded, at least short-term corporate confidence will not collapse
Of course, in the future of artificial intelligence, there are still several risk points to be aware of
1. AI capital spending slows down, especially for SK Hynix's suppliers like Microsoft, Meta, Google, Amazon, etc. Once their capital expenditures enter a contraction phase and storage demand weakens, corporate confidence will decline
2. Intensified competition: Samsung is catching up with high-end products, the US is expanding HBM supply, and China is also chasing cost-effective storage products. If SK Hynix's competitiveness in the storage market declines, it will affect corporate profitability
3. Profit issues, especially high-end storage HBM with very high gross profit margins. If more manufacturers join in the future, yield improves, and customer bargaining power strengthens, profits will be squeezed and future expectations affected
4. The historical cyclicality of the storage industry: AI narratives can cause storage cycles to change over time cycles, but not the rhythm of the cycles. The timing may change, but the rhythm remains the same.
Conclusion:
SK Hynix's drag down today's tech stocks is simply because the market is in a highly sensitive and cautious phase. SK Hynix is merely a catalyst, just like last week's breakthrough in China's artificial intelligence, which has limited impact on the current industry but can still weigh on global stock markets. The trigger is only superficial; the underlying logic is still that the market is adjusting valuations, waiting for new confidence.
For SK Hynix, a short-term stock price decline and valuation adjustment are healthy. As long as the industry hasn't collapsed, a return to stock price is only a matter of time. Especially since SK Hynix has been strong since last week, it's not surprising that the company faces a clear drop in earnings this week.
In the long term, SK Hynix remains one of the core beneficiaries of the global AI storage industry chain. HBM is its technical moat, and currently, the moat is in good shape, so there is no need to worry about it for the next 1-2 years.
For stock prices, after being oversold, there will inevitably be a rebound and recovery in the future. Whether to buy back or bottom-fish, I don't think there's any rush. First, look at the remaining key earnings releases this week, then check the overall adjustment in Q2 earnings season before making a judgment!
#DailyOrbit Record earnings don't always mean a higher stock price.
That's the lesson from $SKHYNIX.
The AI memory story is still intact—but after a massive rally, the market was pricing in perfection.
Despite:
📈 Strong revenue growth
📈 Explosive profit expansion
📈 Industry-leading margins
The stock still sold off because expectations were simply too high.
Markets don't reward "great." They reward better than expected.
I'm not rushing to catch the falling knife. I'd rather wait for valuations to reset, sentiment to cool, and price action to confirm a higher-probability entry.
Patience is a position too.
$SKHYNIX $MU $SNDK #FedRateDecision #BigTechEarningsNight #AI #Semiconductors #DailyOrbitEY (Korea ETF, US stocks)
• Short-term pressure: 54.3 ~ 55.0
• Short-term support: 51.6 ~ 52.2
1. Baseline scenario: Weak volatility
Market sentiment remains fragile; without major positive news, it is highly likely to remain weak and volatile. If Philadelphia Semiconductor and Micron Technology continue to weaken, the EWY will test support below; If the U.S. tech sector stabilizes, a slight technical rebound is expected, but the sustainability of the rally is questionable.
2. Upside conditions
Sentiment in the storage sector is recovering, the Nasdaq is rebounding after a decline, and the EWY holding above 55 is essential to improve expectations for the Korean stock market opening tomorrow.
3. Downside risk
U.S. tech stocks continue to push valuations, while the storage sector is selling off, breaking below the 51.6 support level, which will likely signal a lower opening for Korean stocks tomorrow.
Core Influence Logic
1. Highly bound memory chips
The semiconductor market ≈ the Korean stock market. Tonight's US trading session with Micron and SK Hynix ADR trends is the most important indicator for predicting tomorrow's Korean stock market. US storage continues to plunge, Asia-Pacific will remain under pressure tomorrow; Only after the US market stabilized its decline will Korean stocks have a chance to catch their breath.
2. Leverage Deleveraging Pressure Remains
Previously, a large number of Korean leveraged ETFs were liquidated in succession, making it difficult to clear short-term selling pressure all at once. Even if a rebound occurs, it is more likely to be a volatile recovery and difficult to immediately reverse the trend.
3. Regulatory stability and bottom-line support
South Korean authorities have urgently rescued the market, aiming to limit extreme bottomless plunge, but it is unlikely to immediately reverse the trend of mid-term capital flight.
Key risk reminders
1. Currently, we are in an extremely high-volatility phase. Overnight fluctuations in US stocks will directly and significantly affect the opening of Korean stocks the following day, resulting in a high risk of gap-ups.
2. Short-term oversold does not mean bottoming out immediately; do not easily catch the dip on the left side for a reversal in the game;
3. U.S. and South Korea Storage Markets Form a Sentiment Closed Loop: Korean stocks plunged during the day→ U.S. stocks faced pressure on storage stocks→ Asia-Pacific continued to face pressure the next day, and major positive feedback is needed to break the negative feedback. $XEWY In the crypto world, $SOXS perpetual contracts are trading more than 30% premium over US stock stocks, and negative rates and short squeezes will trigger a sharp cross-market clearing around tonight's FOMC decision.
Currently, the on-chain perpetual price of $SOXS is listed at 67.32, with the underlying US stock closing at 51.53, and the cross-market premium has surged above 30%. The funding rate remains negative, bears are paying daily holding costs, and the 4H MACD histogram continues to expand positively.
Pricing dominance shows a two-tiered divergence: US stocks are suppressed by macro interest rate decisions and semiconductor sector expectations, while on-chain derivatives are driven by passive short covering caused by high premium arbitrage and negative rates. The negative rate mechanism continuously raises short positions to maintain margins, making on-chain liquidation risk prioritize spot clearing of US stocks.
Upside scenario: If the Fed sends a hawkish signal and interest rate expectations remain high, putting pressure on the semiconductor sector, $SOXS a sharp rise in underlying stocks will directly trigger the on-chain short squeeze flywheel. The 4H MACD forward expansion will accelerate short unwinding, attracting arbitrage traders to buy the underlying stock and short perpetual, pushing up contract prices.
Downside scenario: If the Fed sends a dovish signal, a violent rebound in the semiconductor sector will cause $SOXS stocks to plunge instantly. A drop in spot US stocks will quickly break through the 30% derivatives premium, with on-chain long positions closing high positions and arbitrage positions simultaneously, triggering a rapid convergence of perpetual prices and clearing toward the 51.53 underlying benchmark.
The failure signal is determined by the speed at which cross-market premiums are narrowing. If the on-chain perpetual price falls below 60 before the US market opens and the MACD histogram turns contracting, it indicates a break in the short squeeze flywheel and the premium will return to normal range ahead of schedule.
In the next 24 hours, the focus will be on the impact of the FOMC rate decision statement on the US semiconductor sector, as well as the real-time convergence speed of the underlying price at 51.53 against the 67.32 perpetual premium.

When peeling away three-thousand-year-old strata in the trench with a Luoyang shovel, the first thing to see the light of day is often not the flashy golden crown, but the clay slabs engraved with guarantee clauses and the massive stone pillars supporting the massive temple.
Today's tech giants endorsing tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of dollars in debt for next-generation computing centers may seem like a cutting-edge wave to ordinary people, but to us archaeologists, it is nothing more than a historical replay of the nationwide effort to build the "Hanging Gardens" and the "Roman Aqueducts" at the height of human civilization. The royal contracts of ancient Babylon, the state guarantees of Roman public facilities, and even the Dutch East India Company's breach of contract with the seventeenth-century caravan voyages all carry the same rhyme.
A close analysis of this newly unearthed "modern capital site": NVIDIA is preparing to provide about $250 billion in financial guarantees for SoftBank's planned 10GW computing power temple in Ohio, with the total cost of the entire infrastructure potentially reaching $5 trillion; Meanwhile, Google has also slashed the minimum guarantee for third-party data center lease defaults from $6.5 billion to $44 billion, specifically to provide credit support for the third-party chip ecosystem.
This is not pure technological competition; it is a typical example of "post-imperial infrastructure hyper-leverage."
From a stratigraphic perspective, when giants no longer rely solely on cash flow to purchase hardware but begin large-scale use of "financial guarantees" to lock in physical land, electricity, and concrete, it marks the era's full transition from the "technological exploration period" to the "imperial expansion period." Back then, ancient Rome used national credit guarantees to build military cobblestone roads to various provinces, essentially anchoring the empire's future on distant tax rights that had yet to be harvested.
This credit expansion, led by industry giants, is having a profound geopolitical impact on the $XMSFT of US stock token backdrops and the entire decentralized computing value network. The funding gap was temporarily filled by credit leverage, but history has long proven that when the temple's construction costs are fully covered by ultimate credit, any tenant default or underperformance will leave an irreversible fracture zone in the strata.
What Google and NVIDIA invested in was not liquidity, but a massive chain of civilization. They tightly tie their balance sheets to the physical world's power grids and bricks, attempting to build a defensive iron curtain with the ancient "debt concession."
All the vast empires in history that tried to secure hegemony through unlimited guarantees ultimately left behind only piles of clay slab fragments bearing astronomical debts.Core Takeaway from Goldman Sachs Storage Expert Meeting: Is Storage Really Surplus Nowadays?
On the eve of Changxin's IPO, Goldman Sachs organized a conference call for storage industry experts
Yes.
The people they invited were quite interesting—former Samsung executive directors and former Changxin executives. You may not know the name, but the three core points they say are enough to change your perception of storage.
First, Changxin's DRAM market share is 8%, with revenue growing more than sevenfold year-on-year.
In the first quarter of 2026, Changxin's global DRAM market share has reached 8%. Q1 revenue was 50.8 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 719%. Last year, its share was just over 3%, but in just one year, it nearly tripled.
Second, doubling production capacity by 2030 may still be conservative.
The original plan was to double production capacity by 2030. However, experts at Goldman Sachs said during a conference call that this prediction might be too restrained.
Changxin's production capacity layout spans three major bases: Hefei, Shanghai, and Beijing, with full production expected to begin before 2028. By the end of 2026, it will reach a monthly output of 350,000 wafers, already approaching Micron's 375,000 wafers.
A larger production base will continue to contribute capacity beyond 2028.
Third, mass production of HBM3 is targeted for 2026.
HBM is the crown jewel of AI computing power.
Previously, there were only Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron. Changxin's HBM3 mass production plan has been locked in for 2026.
Changxin has invested about 20% of its total DRAM capacity into HBM manufacturing, with a monthly capacity of up to 60,000 wafers.
Although technologically still three to four years behind top companies, the HBM market is growing from three to four.
There is another detail.
South Korea just signed a cumulative $950 billion long-term agreement with the U.S.—Samsung and SK Hynix's production capacity has already been fully booked, and as many as they can.
In this scenario, Changxin's DRAM and HBM will benefit everyone in the world who want to buy memory chips but cannot secure orders from Samsung Hynix.
South Korea's production capacity has been locked down, while China is expanding production frantically.
At this point, someone says storage is no longer lacking?
Isn't that absurd?
If there's nothing lacking, why sign a long-term agreement? Why expand production?
Whether you lack it depends on your actions, not your voice.
Long-term contracts lock in volume for the coming years, while capacity expansion fills future gaps—these two things happening simultaneously precisely indicate that storage will not be sufficient for a long time to come.
Once DRAM expansion begins, Changxin will benefit far more than just itself.
Equipment suppliers like NAURA Huachuang and AMEC are all part of Changxin's chain.
When did Samsung react? Hynix realized it was selling its future cheaply.
That's when the real rhythm shifts happen.
Buy the moat, ride the bull — Buy the moat, take the long ox.
$MU $SKHY #长鑫存储 #A股 #存储 #半导体 #芯片$ALLO remains under strong bearish pressure on the daily chart, trading around $0.3147 after a sharp rejection from the $0.5512 high.

The $0.3090 level is key support—losing it could lead to further downside, while a recovery above $0.338–0.350 would be the first sign of improving momentum.

#DailyOrbit @OKX中文 Markets don't reward hope—they reward discipline.
With recession fears, black swan speculation, and global uncertainty growing, I'm not rushing into longs.
If $BTC and $ETH bounce into key resistance, I'll be watching for short opportunities instead of chasing green candles.
Japan and South Korea have already shown how quickly sentiment can flip. If risk-off accelerates globally, weak hands could get wiped out fast.
Stay patient. Protect your capital. There will always be another trade.
What's your plan—buy the dip or wait for confirmation?
#DailyOrbit #FedRateDecision #BigTechEarningsNight $BTC $ETHLet me summarize a very counterintuitive phenomenon: the company made a fortune, but the stock price actually crashed.
While SK Hynix's profits soared, the Korean stock market experienced a shocking plunge.
The reason is simple: early on, everyone bet on AI storage, the stock price soared ahead of schedule, and everyone waited for the earnings report to go further. But the positive news didn't exceed expectations, and the funds were immediately cashed out and exited.
Moreover, Korean investors generally prefer to use leverage to trade stocks, and any drop can trigger chain liquidations and amplify the decline.
The market should never judge price movements based on static financial reports; expectations are far more important than current performance.
A reminder: leverage is a double-edged sword, and extreme market risks far exceed expectations. $#海力士业绩创纪录但不及预期, storage stocks have experienced sharp fluctuations Kaito's major revamp is here, and the platform's token has surged rapidly, rising from below $1 to nearly $1.3. NFTs also seem to have increased a bit. Here are some key updates—everyone, take a look.
💠 Project teams can use flexible evaluation criteria to attribute rewards, including: mindshare share, clicks, registrations, deposits, in-platform activities... and many other indicators.
In the previous version, you just had to write tweets, compete for MindShare %, and then distribute rewards based on rankings, but this only brought buzz to the project team, not actual users. Plus, the entire X timeline would turn into just talking about tweets.
In the new version of MindShare, the proportion of % may not be as important, mainly based on registration clicks, deposit count, trading volume ... and other actual revenue generation impacts will be even greater.
💠 For Pre-TGE projects, the platform offers a dedicated format with no service fees. Instead, the project team must provide a refundable "deposit" that coexists with the reward pool, allowing creators to know the funds have been committed before posting. Each event announces the token distribution pool and vesting terms in advance, allowing creators to clearly understand their earnings and timeline.
Previously, there was no deposit system; project teams could freely change event rules, and even TGE could bypass contracts and directly buy creator labor for free, as seen in Humanity's $H token.
The new version requires the project team to provide a deposit. If the token reward pool airdrop rule is not fulfilled during TGE, the deposit will be forfeited and distributed to creators, effectively adding an extra layer of protection. No need to worry about spending a lot of time and ending up with nothing.
💠 Eighty percent of each token pool will be allocated to creators who deliver results, while the remaining 20% will be given to $KAITO token stakers and YT-sKAITO holders, which corresponds to an annualized return of about 136%. Long-term stakers and Yapybara holders will receive multiplier bonuses for their commitments.
Overall, it's similar to previous versions. Stakers not only receive Kaito token rewards themselves, but also receive additional token airdrops from the project. However, this annualized return rate is floating. In a bear market, if there aren't many projects with a lot of TGE, it drops to around 20~30%. In a bull market, it may exceed 200% APY, depending on market conditions and the number of pre-TGE projects.I opened a long order for KR200
This is an index tracking the top 200 Korean stock companies in South Korea
It has already dropped 50% in the past month
If you put it in A-shares, it's a desperate crash
Considering Koreans' gambling nature and recklessness,
as well as Lee Jae-myung's gradually declining approval ratings and his previous bullish remarks about the stock market
The national team is not far off stepping in to save the market
In short, the stock market should also be political: $SKHY $KR 200 Tonight, the market will face three key variables.
Tonight, the global market's attention will focus on three core events.
I believe what truly affects the market is not a single piece of news, but how funds reprice risk after multiple factors accumulate.
First, the Federal Reserve's interest rate decision.
The market is focused not only on whether interest rates will be adjusted, but more importantly on the Fed's latest statements on inflation, the economy, and future policy path.
If a dovish signal is released, risk asset sentiment is expected to improve; If the wording remains hawkish, short-term market volatility could be further amplified.
Second, the financial reports of tech giants.
The performance of tech companies like Microsoft and Meta will directly affect the risk appetite of global tech sectors.
If the earnings report exceeds expectations, it is expected to boost sentiment in the AI industry chain and growth stocks; Conversely, if earnings or guidance fall short of market expectations, tech stocks may continue to come under pressure, and the crypto market will find it difficult to remain completely independent of external trends.
Third, the situation in the Middle East.
Recently, geopolitical conflicts have repeatedly escalated, causing international oil prices to rise again.
If oil prices continue to rise, the market may renew concerns about inflationary pressures, and expectations for future Fed rate cuts could be affected, increasing volatility in global risk assets.
Why are these three events so important?
Because they represent three forces influencing the market:
• Monetary policy determines global liquidity;
• Corporate earnings determine risk appetite;
• Geopolitics determine risk aversion.
When all three factors change simultaneously, funds often readjust their asset allocation, which is why market volatility tends to amplify significantly during major events.
The more you approach major events, the less you should rush to bet on direction.
Waiting for news to materialize, observing capital flows and market feedback, and then trading with the trend is often more prudent than guessing in advance.
News affects sentiment, capital determines trends. What truly deserves attention this week is not who says what, but the three major variables—interest rates, earnings reports, and geopolitical dynamics—which will ultimately push funds out. $BTC #美联储即将公布利率决议 Guys, the US session has opened. Analyzing SanDisk's early morning open, it opened lower and rebounded slightly to the trapped zone around 1150U. After retail investors bottom-fished and entered, institutions poured in large short orders, quickly breaking through the day's short-term support at 1050.72U; Afternoon waterfall decline: all support was lost, quantitative stop-losses and leveraged ETFs triggered passive closing orders, prices plunged downward, with the day's maximum drop expected at 12%-18%, testing the medium-term support at 990U; Late session with no volume and a shadowy decline: After being oversold, there was a brief slight rebound, with no new capital entering the market. Remaining profit-taking positions continued to be realized, closing at an intraday low, closing with a super long green bearish candlestick, further confirming the bearish trend. Market expects the Fed to keep interest rates high #Fed to announce interest rate decision, US Treasury yields continue to rise, funds are withdrawing from high-volatility storage and AI hardware sectors to consumer and pharmaceutical defense assets, and incremental capital continues to flow out, further intensifying SanDisk's selling pressure. 1. In Q4, the price increases for NAND flash continued to shrink, with institutions continuously lowering SanDisk's full-year profit guidance, further compressing valuations; 2. Changxin Memory continues to expand production, with global flash memory supply expected to be oversupplied in 2027, leading to a downward trend in industry gross margins; 3. AI computing hardware procurement budgets continue to tighten, slowing long-term SSD demand growth; The short-term bearish trend is clear: 1050U is only an intraday sentiment support, while the 1278U and 1600U levels are tightly trapped in selling pressure, severely suppressing the rebound height $SNDK $BTC At 2 a.m. Beijing time on July 30, the Federal Reserve will announce its latest interest rate decision. This time, the market's focus is not just on "whether to cut rates," but on what signals the Fed will send next. Currently, the mainstream market expectation is to keep interest rates unchanged. CME FedWatch data shows that the probability of maintaining current rates at the July meeting remains high. The expectation of a 25 basis point cut has not completely disappeared, but funds have already started trading in another possibility: if the Fed remains cautious or even signals a hawkish stance, the market may readjust its expectations for the pace of future rate cuts. Why are you so conflicted now? On one hand, U.S. inflation is indeed cooling slowly, and the market hopes to see further monetary policy easing; On the other hand, energy prices, tariff impacts, and uncertainties in some economic data have made the Fed hesitant to ease restrictions too soon. For the Fed, the toughest problem right now is: cutting rates too early could cause inflation to resurface;
Cutting rates too late could put pressure on the economy. So for this meeting, the market's real focus may not be on interest rate figures, but on the speeches after the meeting. If a dovish signal is released, it could mean that expectations for future rate cuts may heat up, the US dollar weakens, and risk assets like BTC and ETH may find support. But if the attitude is cautious, even suggesting inflation risks persist, the market may experience short-term volatility and funds return to safe-haven positions. The crypto market has already started reacting early. Before the FOMC meeting, BTC and ETH were clearly sensitive114美元的$XSPCX，冲高回落还敢追吗？
先看盘面：这不是那种一眼就能闭着眼冲的强势，反而更像一根拉起来之后，市场开始互相试探的位置。
北京时间 7 月 29 日 22:23 抓 OKX 现货数据，$XSPCX 报 113.87，24 小时从 110.37 拉到最高 118.13，最低 110.12，涨幅 3.17%，成交额约 660.39 万 USDT，24h VWAP 在 115.16。价格现在低于 VWAP，也低于 1H MA7 的 115.33 和 MA20 的 115.52，这说明白天那波拉升还在，但短线已经不是最舒服的追价点。
第一个矛盾，是涨幅排在前面，盘口却没那么亢奋。OKX 官方上币说明里，XSPCX/USDT 属于 Unified Tokenized Stocks 现货交易对，不是 XRP、XLM、XAUT 那类加密资产。横向看，同批代币化美股里，XSNDK 跌 4.23%，XSOXL 跌 3.21%，XAMD 跌 1.57%，而 XSPCX 还能涨 3.17%，相对强度是有的。但最近 100 笔成交里，主动买入只占 22.36%，说明追上去的人不多，更多像是高位有人边拉边换手。
第二个矛盾，是成交额够用，深度却提醒你别太重。当前买一 113.85、卖一 113.88，价差 0.03，约 0.026%，看起来很细；但 0.5% 深度买盘约 14.06 万 USDT，卖盘约 10.20 万 USDT，1% 深度也只有 14.99 万和 11.31 万。小仓观察没问题，重仓一砸，滑点会比你想象得明显。
第三个矛盾，是趋势没坏，但短线已经开始降温。1H RSI14 只有 34.81，ATR 约 1.35，过去 2 小时回落 1.43%，6 小时回落 1.18%，但 3 天区间仍是 +1.81%。这不是崩，是冲到 118 附近后先喘口气。
位置上我会盯三档：112.3-113 是短线承接区，跌破并收不回，说明这波强度先失效；110.1 是 24h 低点，也是更硬的防线；上方 115.2-115.6 是第一道压力，重新站上才算拿回 VWAP 和 1H 均线，118.1 则是今天真正的门槛。
短线看，113 附近能横住，可以观察 115.5 的反抽质量；站不上，不急着追。波段看，只有放量站回 118 上方，才谈 120 后面的空间。中长线看，OKX 这类代币化资产可以 24/7 交易，但早期市场深度还在长，核心不是猜一天涨跌，而是看成交额能不能持续留在百万级以上。
这位置能看，但别把强势当成无风险。

Although second-quarter profits surged 557% year-on-year, setting a record high, core revenue and profit both fell short of market consensus expectations. The capital market trades with expectations gaps, and the realization of positive news creates short-term selling pressure.
Key Logic Behind the Decline:
1. The marginal dividend from memory chip price increases is weakening, with DRAM and NAND price increases clearly slowing month-on-month;
2. Nearly half of HBM capacity is tied to long-term customer supply agreements, limiting performance flexibility amid spot price hikes;
3. Funds are beginning to worry whether AI giants can maintain high capital expenditures, leading to collective capital cashing out in tech stocks at high levels;
4. The market is prematurely betting on the inflection point of the storage cycle, and with intensified competition among peers, valuations are being digested.
Short-term sentiment is weak, but medium- to long-term AI computing power has not completely disrupted HBM's demand logic.
The market is highly uncertain; do not blindly bottom-fish, and always manage risks in every trade. #海力士业绩创纪录但不及预期, storage stocks experienced sharp fluctuations Has a stock market crash arrived? Global AI chip stocks are experiencing a valuation stampede: □□ South Korea: KOSPI triggered circuit breakers yesterday and closed down 10.8%, then fell another 8.2% at midday today; SK Hynix fell 12.6%, Samsung Electronics fell 8%. □□ US: Micron fell 8.9%, AMD fell 8.1%, Applied Materials fell 7.8%. The most ironic thing is, every time earnings are released, prices fall. SK Hynix just delivered a record 60.5 trillion won in quarterly operating profit, about six times year-on-year, yet its stock price continues to plummet. Next, focus on three things: 1️⃣ Will US chip stocks continue to decline 2️with heavy volume? ⃣ Can large tech companies prove that AI investment is turning into cash flow 3️? ⃣ Will the Federal Reserve signal stronger rate hikes? #美联储即将公布利率决议 #财报观察员: Microsoft, Meta, and Amazon will close tonight. #海力士业绩创纪录但不及预期, storage stocks are experiencing sharp volatility $SOXS What is the next step for the dog farm?
The last two FOMC scenarios:
· Hawkish / Tightening maintained: Semiconductors continue to be under pressure, SOXS may keep pushing up to 68-70 or even 75-80.
· Dovish / Easing signal: Semiconductors may rebound violently, SOXS could plunge by 10-20% in an instant.
Mid-term: Michael Burry's short bets have earned an average profit of 20%. If it starts taking profits, SOXS could face massive selling pressure.
The final heartfelt words:
SOXS is $67.32 today, up 14% from 59 to 67 in three days. SOX bear market, Burry short selling, negative rate short squeezes, and a cluster of exchanges launching — positive news piles up like mountains. But with crypto premiums over 30%, the FOMC meeting tonight, and Burry potentially taking profits at any moment—all three major risks are right there. At 67.32, bulls fear the FOMC dovish sell-off, while bears fear the squeeze will continue to rally. Hold on, wait until the FOMC boots hit the ground tonight, and wait until the direction is clear before making a move. Remember, staying long in crypto is ten thousand times more important than making a lot of money! Meeting adjourned!Always remember, the market does not accommodate anyone. Getting rich quickly is just a legend for a few; steadiness is the foundation of survival.
Don't let short-term price fluctuations sway your emotions. If you don't understand the market, choose to wait and see, and decisively give up on orders that exceed your risk tolerance.
Learn to survive first to have the right to wait for the next round of opportunitiesETH is weaker than altcoins, BTC is trading sideways, and the market is repricing the "decoupling" narrative. US stocks have fallen continuously this week, but ETH and altcoins have not weakened in sync; instead, there are signs of an accelerated rally. Does this mean crypto assets are decoupling from US risk appetite? The original post described a common but alarming phenomenon: US stocks continued to pull back, while ETH and some altcoins rose against the trend, prompting the market to discuss "crypto no longer following US stocks." But this judgment needs to be analyzed. Key facts: - U.S. stocks (S&P, Nasdaq) have recently experienced consecutive declines, with macro risk appetite shrinking. - ETH and some altcoins performed relatively strongly during the same period, even accelerating their upward trend. - Historically, crypto assets have maintained a high correlation with U.S. stocks over the long term, especially with the Nasdaq index. Structural changes and expectations gap: - Currently, ETH is stronger than BTC, and altcoins overall outperform ETH, which is a typical "risk appetite increase" structure. This is a clear departure from the decline in US stocks. - If crypto assets truly begin to decouple from US stocks, it means the market is viewing crypto as an independent asset class rather than a shadow of tech stocks. This requires stronger internal narrative support (such as ETF inflows, Layer2 ecosystem boom, and increased institutional allocation willingness). - However, there is currently insufficient data to prove that decoupling has been established. More likely to be short-term capital rotation: some traders are betting on ETH catch-up or a knockoff season, while the decline in US stocks has yet to trigger a systemic liquidity crunch. Pricing shadowSouth Korea's main board SK Hynix closed down 9.61% today, with the largest intraday drop approaching 20%;
• U.S. ADR (SKHY) closed down 8.98% the previous trading day;
Market concerns: A large number of HBM orders are locked in by long-term LTA agreements, making it difficult to fully benefit from spot chip price increases; Combined with global capital growing concerns about the return on investment in the AI industry chain, the storage sector is collectively selling off valuations.
2. Tonight's (US session SKHY) trend analysis
Current Landscape: Sentiment is weak, mainly volatile, with greater downward pressure
1. Baseline scenario (highest probability): Weak range oscillation
Short-term resistance: $128~$132
Short-term support: $123~$125
Unless there is a major sudden positive development, it is highly likely to fluctuate within a range.
If the US Nasdaq and Philadelphia Semiconductor Index stabilize, SKHY is expected to test resistance above; If tech stocks continue to weaken, support levels are likely to be broken.
2. Uplink trigger conditions (relatively difficult)
• The US semiconductor sector rebounded collectively;
• Market funds re-enter the long-term demand logic of HBM;
After holding above $132, the upper target is near $136.
3. Downside Risk Scenarios (Requires Focused Vigilance)
The Nasdaq continued to pull back, market risk appetite further declined, and funds continued to sell off AI storage stocks;
A valid break below the $123 support opens up, with the next target range at $118~$120.
3. Key Influencing Variables
1. Strong sector linkage: The trend follows the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index and Micron Technology (MU), with the storage sector rising and falling in tandem, making it difficult to break out of an independent rally;
2. Sentiment-driven market trends: Currently, capital is no longer focused solely on earnings, but on AI capital supporting continuation expectations. During pessimistic sentiment phases, rebounds tend to be weak;
3. Korean and US stocks link: Korean stocks have plunged sharply for two consecutive days, and negative sentiment is expected to spread into the evening US session.
$SKHYNIX This report selects four Perp DEXs with relatively complete DefiLlama operating data disclosures last quarter: Hyperliquid, edgeX, Lighter, and ApeX. Interestingly, these four protocols cover four different revenue tiers: quarterly revenue over 100 million, over 10 million but less than 100 million, over 5 million but less than 10 million, and more than one million but less than 5 million. Although these four protocols do not represent the entire Perp DEX industry, they basically form a business model from the top to the bottom and the tail, which is why I have grouped them together. I analyzed their Q2 operating data performance, and overall, I can draw a simple conclusion: the combined Q2 revenue of the four sample protocols fell by 21.4% quarter-on-quarter. Why is this change worth mentioning? Because, as commonly believed, trading market performance should be linked to secondary market activity. However, if we pull out $BTC's market movement, we can see that in the first quarter, except for a period of about half a month of downward main trend, BTC mostly fluctuated within a range. The market fluctuations throughout the second quarter were clearly more pronounced than in the first quarter. According to common understanding, larger price fluctuations usually bring more trading demand, at least making the market more active than during a volatile phase. However, PerpDEX's total revenue declined quarter-on-quarter. And this trend isn't limited to PEMC Labs $BTC Yesterday's Trend Analysis (29/07/2026) 0. Market Conditions $BTC $BTC closed at 63,861, change +0.25%, spot trading volume 63,357.14 $BTC 1. Macro and Liquidity The geopolitical crisis in the Strait of Hormuz (Iran closing the strait and controlling navigation, the U.S. plans to use Iranian frozen assets to compensate for merchant ship losses) continue to anchor market risk aversion. Geopolitical pressure and sticky inflation kept the 10-year US Treasury yield at 4.604% (down slightly from the previous day's 4.641%), the US dollar index (DXY) at 101.336, and Fed net liquidity remained sideways at 5.84 trillion. High risk-free yields and a safe-haven environment lock funds in traditional safe-haven assets, forming the underlying hard constraints on macro-inflow incremental capital inflows into crypto assets. 2. Capital Flow and Supply-Demand Structure Under macroeconomic pressure, BTC ETF net outflows further expanded to $49.81 million yesterday (compared to $11.34 million the day before). Coinbase's premium rate remained in the negative range of -0.1062, reflecting a severe lack of buying power in spot allocation by American institutions and a risk-averse wait-and-see stance. However, exchanges saw a significant net outflow of 9,506 BTC in a single day (down to 3.296 million BTC), indicating that holders on the market were not holding their sharesThe three core factors currently driving BTC
1. ETF capital flows remain the decisive factor
Recently, BTC ETFs experienced significant capital outflows, but capital inflows began to return again in July. However, the scale of the inflow is still not enough to fully reverse the earlier selling pressure.
This means:
* Long-term institutions have not completely exited the market
* However, institutions have not been aggressively increasing positions for now
* The market is still waiting for signals from the Federal Reserve
So BTC now looks more like:
This is the recovery phase after the bear market ends, not the new frenzied bull market.
2. The Federal Reserve has become the biggest variable
Recently, the market has been very sensitive to expectations of rate cuts.
If:
* Rate cuts confirmed within the year
* A soft landing for the U.S. economy
BTC is easily regaining interest from venture capital.
If:
* Inflation rebound
* Rate cuts postponed
BTC may see another 20%-30% pullback.
3. ETH is diverting funds
A clear recent phenomenon has emerged in the market:
Some institutional funds have started flowing from BTC into ETH ETFs. ETH ETF funds have even temporarily outperformed BTC ETFs.
That's also why you've recently seen:
* ETH is rising faster than BTC
* The AI sector is more active than BTC
* BTC has started to move sideways
Technical assessment
I divided the future into three scripts:
Scenario 1 (about 50% chance)
BTC continues to fluctuate upward
Features:
* Continuously raising the bottom after pullbacks
* ETF funds gradually flowing back
* Expectations for rate cuts are strengthening
Results:
BTC is expected to challenge previous highs again in the coming months.
Scenario 2 (about 35% chance)
Major range fluctuations
Features:
* Insufficient positive factors
* Limited negative side
Performance:
If it rises, it gets sold
When prices drop, someone buys in
This situation could last for months.
Scenario 3 (about 15% chance)
Deep pullback
Trigger conditions:
* The Fed is more hawkish than expected
* Global risk events escalated
* Another large-scale outflow from ETFs
In this case:
BTC may experience a rapid drop of 20%-30%.
My current judgment
If I had to choose only one direction:
In the next 3-6 months, I lean bullish.
Reason:
1. ETFs remain a long-term source of incremental capital.
2. The BTC halving cycle effect has not yet fully ended.
3. The global liquidity environment is gradually improving.
4. New narratives such as stock tokenization and RWA will ultimately bring capital spillover effects to BTC.
However, note:
Currently, I am more optimistic about ETH's resilience than BTC.
If the market continues to strengthen:
* BTC is more like a stable leader
* ETH may outperform BTC
* The AI sector (such as TAO, KAITO, etc.) is the most volatile but also has the greatest yield elasticity
From an investment perspective:
* Conservative: BTC
* Solid offense: ETH
* High risk, high reward: AI narrative coin
Based on the market you've been following lately, my current conclusion is:
BTC will fluctuate in the short term, but bullish in the medium term; ETH is stronger than BTC; A true systemic bull market still requires interest rate cuts and sustained net ETF inflows to cooperate.
$BTC $ETH finished July up 19.5 percent. But that’s not even the biggest story. The real move is rotation. This month gains didn’t stay trapped in one sector. They spread across the board. Top $1B+ performers for July: $M led the pack with 68.06 percent $UNI up 27.15 percent $ONDO up 25.62 percent $ZEC up 22.02 percent $ETH up 19.50 percent $PE up 17.88 percent $LINK up 13.91 percent $MORPHO up 11.84 percent $SKY up 11.84 percent $OKB up 11.49 percent $XMR up 10.40 percent $Perp DEXs arguably have one of the strongest token value-capture models in crypto.
After reviewing the Q2 data for four leading Perp DEX protocols, one thing stands out: each has built a mechanism that returns a significant share of protocol revenue to token holders.
Hyperliquid: 100%
Lighter: ~97.8%
ApeX: ~100%
edgeX: ~207%* (due to differences in quarterly accounting)
Could the rest of the industry learn from this?
This approach is far more tangible than relying on governance rights, future airdrop speculation, or broad narratives to justify token value. (It also reminds me of a protocol that was recently exploited partly because almost no one participated in on-chain governance.)
That said, the percentage alone doesn't tell the full story.
A protocol can return 100% of its profits to token holders, but if quarterly profits are only a few hundred thousand dollars, the actual impact on token value remains limited.
Distribution determines how value is shared. Scale determines how much value exists to share.
In the end, both matter. A high payout ratio is powerful only when it's backed by meaningful and growing protocol revenue.
#FedRateDecision #BigTechEarningsNight Recently, the two core storage stocks, $SNDK (SanDisk) and $SKHYNIX (SK Hynix), have experienced a simultaneous crash. SNDK fell from a high of $1518 to a low of $993.8, a 7-day drop of 34.45% and a single-day drop of another 5.84%. SK Hynix token has dropped from a stage high of $1,354.21 to a low of $885.29, currently quoted at $1,007, down 5.77% in a single day. Even when bottom-fishing funds entered the market at the 993 and 885 lows to try to rebound and recover, they still couldn't stop the market from turning downward again. Many traders wonder why the storage concept leaders, tied to major physical chip manufacturers, have simultaneously broken down sharply. Combining recent global storage industry earnings reports, domestic storage industry expansion news, and the flow of funds in the crypto sector to break down the complete downward logic, and to sort out the unique attributes of these two tokens. I. Background of Real Industry & Market Events Corresponding to This Round of Simultaneous Collective Crash 1. Large-scale expansion of domestic storage capacity directly shatters global chip price hike expectations. Recently, industry research institutions have disclosed the latest industry news: domestic memory factories continue to expand, mature DUV process production lines are mass-operating, and shipments of domestic DDR and flash memory chips keep rising. The market's original logic of betting on overseas storage giants cutting production and raising prices has completely failed, the global storage chip inventory destocking cycle has been passively extended, and the recovery in purchasing demand from consumers and enterprises is far slower than institutions had previously predicted. Previously, the core confidence behind the crypto hype about SNDK and SK Hynix was the "Q3 chip system."$UNI
The silence before the storm is disappearing as established altcoins begin joining the broader market recovery. $UNI is trading around $4.053 after gaining approximately 4.06%.
Unlike the smaller tokens, $UNI may require stronger market-wide participation before producing an explosive continuation. I am watching for rising spot volume, strength against major trading pairs and large buy orders defending the $4.00 region. These signals could confirm that capital is rotating into more established decentralized-finance assets.
The important support zone is $3.92–$4.00. If buyers hold this area, $UNI could move toward $4.30 and then $4.55. A breakdown below $3.80 would invalidate the immediate bullish outlook.
EP: $4.00–$4.08
TP1: $4.30
TP2: $4.55
SL: $3.80$BEAT What is the next step for the dog farm?
Short-term (before August 1): The price is highly likely to fluctuate sharply in the $3.0-$4.0 range. The biggest variable is the $81.66M unlock on August 1. Historically, major token unlocks have often led to price crashes.
Mid-term: The biggest variable is how the market moves after unlocking it. If whales continue to accumulate and absorb selling pressure, a rebound may occur; If holders panic sell, $3.0 may not hold. Weekly burns benefit narrative packaging but cannot offset the 21.25 million token unlocks—treating burns as a complete supply moat is a flawed supply and demand calculation.
---
The final heartfelt words:
BEAT jumped from $2.4 to $3.81 today, up 35%. Whale returns, NFT rebound, and surging trading volume—positive news piles up like mountains. But on August 1, $81.66M was unlocked, the $4 break failed, and Square's hype was all about trading plans—all three major mines were right there. **Some analysts have made it clear: "BEAT's rally on Square is not a genuine buying opportunity, but rather the unlocking of hedging and deleveraging after the failed $4 breakout amplified volatility."** **At the $3.81 level, bulls fear unlocking and selling, while bears fear the market will continue to rally. Hold your hands tightly. Wait until August 1st unlocks and all the negative news is gone, and wait until the direction becomes clearer before making a move. Remember, staying long in crypto is ten thousand times more important than making a lot of money! Meeting adjourned!$ETH Yesterday, MicroStrategy raised USDT reserves to $3 billion

BTC holdings are 843,000 coins, not a single coin sold
If MicroStrategy is bearish, after selling MSTR, they should have sold BTC along with it, but they didn't sell
He should be using low-cost equity financing to buy coins, not selling coins to buy coins. The 843,000 tokens are the base position, not chips
In the short term, this 3 billion is "ready to get bullets." In the medium term, MSTR discounts are narrowing, indicating the market should be repricing this model$XASTS
The silence before the storm is starting to break as $xASTS moves higher with the broader market. Price is trading near $57.97 after gaining approximately 1.92%.
The screenshot cuts off the full volume information, so the next breakout should only be trusted if live volume increases and large buy orders begin defending the current range. Continued capital rotation into tokenized assets could add further momentum.
The main support zone is $56.00–$57.00. Holding above this region could open the path toward $60.50 and then $64.00. A drop below $54.80 would weaken the bullish structure.

Plot One: The 81 million unlock is the biggest pitfall! BEAT will unlock 21.25 million tokens on August 1, valued at $81.66 million, accounting for 6.87% of market cap. The dog farm is rushing to push prices up before the unlock — wait for you to chase it in, and the dog farm will crash the market!
Conspiracy 2: Failed to break through $4 = bullish trap! $BEAT briefly hit a 7-day high close to $4.52, then pulled back to $2.6. After failing to break through $4, the rally sentiment turned into support panic, shifting from narrative buying to leveraged gambling.
Conspiracy Three: Square's popularity is carefully orchestrated! Binance Square discussion intensity reached 39,809, which is 2.08 times the average of 19,140. But the hottest posts are all about trading plans, not in-depth research into Audiera. When the discussion shifts from "AI music ecosystem" to "entry, stop loss, take profit, resistance," asset accumulation has shifted from narrative accumulation to a leveraged game phase. #交易之声: Your experience deserves to be heard
The most brutal scene in the crypto market this summer wasn't the market crash, but the persistent decline in the secondary market for those well-known "institutional-grade infrastructure projects" that often raised tens of millions of dollars.
Many people in the community asked: "This coin has dropped 70% from its peak, and its valuation has dropped. Has it reached the bottom-fishing range on the right?" ”
To put it bluntly: as long as the initial liquidity rate of a project is still at the 5%-10% red line, this kind of bearish decline has no bottom. What you think is a complete drop is still several times or even dozens of times the unrealized profit compared to early VC book costs.
To see clearly this bloody clearing, we first need to unravel the calculations of market makers and institutions.
The old bull market strategy was: top VCs investing at high valuations→ exchanges launching high FDVs→ initially offering only 5% of the very low circulation supply→ market makers using their controlling advantages to push up unit prices → creating the illusion of "low market capitalization."
But this game completely failed in the summer of 2026.
On one hand, secondary retail investors have collectively gotten smarter—no one wants to take on the high walls of FDV worth tens of billions of dollars; On the other hand, as projects reach six months or a year after launch, early-stage institutions and teams experience a peak in linear token unlocks. Tens of millions of dollars in new chips pouring into the market every month keep pouring in, and the market makers' small amount of selling capital can't even withstand the ongoing sell-offs for even a week.
When market makers abandon market support, what remains is the trap of a bearish dip caused by the drying of one-way liquidity.
In trading and coin selection, I strictly follow two sets of risk control indicators. If the project doesn't meet the standards, no matter how impressive the project is, I will never touch it:
The first indicator: Market Capitalization/FDV Ratio (MC/FDV Ratio).
If this rate is below 20%, they are directly blacklisted. If the circulation ratio is too low, it means that over 90% of future chips will have to be paid for by the secondary market. What you are buying is not an asset, but an inflation certificate that can be diluted at any time.
Second indicator: Monthly Unlock / Daily Vol Ratio.
Before each unlock, check the amount of tokens to be released that month and compare it to the average daily real trading volume over the past 30 days after removing market maker buying volume. If monthly unlocking selling pressure accounts for more than 25% of the average daily trading volume, it means the market cannot absorb this sell-off at all, and the price is likely to weaken early.
In the crypto market, recognizing that certain seemingly glamorous projects are considered "non-tradable assets" is the most important ability to preserve principal. Don't pay for the liquidity loss of early-stage VCs.
Do you have any projects with a circulation ratio below 15%? If so, do you plan to wait for the rebound and leave, or sell your losses to switch positions? $BTC $ETH $SNDK "Bitcoin Market Review: On the Eve of the FOMC, What Signals Does On-Chain Data Give?"

The most obvious change in today's market is that both bull and bear volumes shrank significantly, indicating that neither side has the will to fight and both are waiting for the FOMC decision.
Previously, there was still volume when bears were dumping on the four-hour level, but now bear volume has shrunk to the floor. Bull volume is also weak; the rebound lacks sustainability, pushing twice then stopping, with overall volume remaining at minimal levels.
This is not a case of one side strong and the other weak; both sides are resting, with no new capital inflow and no new selling pressure.
In short: bears can't push anymore, bulls can't push either. Both sides are waiting for the FOMC to shake things up.
On-Chain Data Analysis of Market Participants' Behavior ETF Institutional Fund Flows:
On the eve of the FOMC, institutional funds remain pessimistic overall. Bitcoin spot ETF institutions continue net outflows of $49.75M, still showing signs of retreat.
Exchange Inflows: No selling pressure arrived, nor did it leave.
Bitcoin exchange inflows over the past 30 days are about 60,000 BTC, 24% below the average level of the past year, close to multi-year lows. Net flow is about -1,300 BTC, near zero, indicating inflows and outflows are basically balanced.
There is neither chip accumulation on exchanges nor large-scale withdrawals causing liquidity tightening.
The signal is clear: no selling pressure, but no buying squeeze either.
Whales vs. Retail: Divergent Directions
Net inflows from large holders to Binance plunged 44% from the June peak of $7 billion to $3.9 billion, while retail net inflows dropped 22% to $7.8 billion.
The gap widened to $3.9 billion, indicating large holders withdrew BTC from exchanges before the FOMC to wait and see; retail investors are still maintaining inflows but with weakening strength. This divergence itself is a signal: smart money is waiting for direction, retail is waiting for a rebound.
Whale wallets holding 10-10,000 BTC have net increased holdings by about 19,696 BTC over the past 8 days, worth over $1 billion at current prices.
While whales quietly accumulate, retail investors are retreating. This divergence historically often appears in the Wyckoff accumulation structure's C phase, where smart money buys from panicked retail.
Order Book Data
Below 64K there is active absorption, with main force 24-hour buy volume at 738 million, sell volume at 468 million, net order difference of $1.188 billion (positive).
Above 64.5K, trapped orders form a selling pressure wall. Currently, no large buy or sell orders are seen; both bulls and bears are watching.
Macro Fundamentals and Core News: FOMC is the Biggest Variable
The decision is at 2:00 AM Beijing time, with CME rate hike probability about 36%. Among 104 economists, all bet on no change, showing great divergence. If there is a dissenting vote, the signal is more critical than the rate hike itself.
An unexpected rate hike would tighten financial conditions and likely increase BTC volatility; dovish wording would ease market pressure.
Final Core Judgment
Four-hour bull and bear volumes are both weak; both sides are playing dead waiting for the FOMC. On-chain data tells a clear story: whales are accumulating (19,696 BTC), miners are hoarding, exchange selling pressure hasn't arrived, but retail and ETF funds are hesitating.
Bull and bear forces cancel each other out, so the price hovered around 64K all day. Direction needs the FOMC to push it.
Friends, the best strategy now is to stay out and watch, let the FOMC decision come first, let the volume-confirming candlestick confirm direction, then make your move. "Daily Market Watch | Asia Close and US Stock Preview"
Today's Key Points: AI faith faces earnings realization test, memory sector leads Asian declines, FOMC sets direction tonight.
Asia Review: South Korean stock crash spreads, memory sector hardest hit
Today's South Korean stock market can be described in two words: tragic!
KOSPI plunged again in early trading triggering a circuit breaker, falling over 10% to break below the 5500 mark, down more than 40% from the June peak.
SK Hynix intraday dropped over 19%, a record largest decline, finally closing down over 9%; Samsung Electronics fell over 14% intraday, with market cap briefly dropping below $900 billion.
The trigger was SK Hynix's Q2 earnings report released this morning: revenue of 79.3 trillion KRW, operating profit of 60.5 trillion KRW, a year-on-year surge of 557%, both record highs. Both figures fell short of market expectations of 84 trillion and 64 trillion KRW respectively.
"The market's demand for 'the strongest earnings ever' has turned into 'must far exceed expectations.'"
Japan and Taiwan also suffered: Nikkei 225 fell over 2.6%, Kioxia dropped about 14%, Tokyo Electron nearly 11%, SoftBank over 10%; TSMC down nearly 4%.
China's ChiNext index fell over 2% intraday, then turned positive with Asia-Pacific rebound in the afternoon. The afternoon deep V-shaped rebound is considered "emotional repair" rather than "trend reversal." After panic selling subsides, some funds believe the negative news has been priced in and start to cover positions.
Hot Focus: AI hardware sector enters "earnings realization trial period"
The core contradiction revealed by SK Hynix's earnings: "record" earnings are just a passing grade; "far exceeding expectations" is what the market wants.
High HBM sales proportion limits benefits when general DRAM prices surge; plus LTA price locks restrict spot price flexibility.
"SK Hynix delivered strong earnings, but strong alone is no longer enough. Investors want to see more catalysts."
US Pre-Market: Three major variables land tonight
① Federal Reserve rate decision (July 30, 2:00 AM Beijing time)
CME FedWatch shows a 33%-38% chance of a rate hike, with rare market divergence. The Fed may unexpectedly raise rates by 25 basis points, "the market has underestimated Waller's hawkish shift."
Regardless of a hike or not, the real market impact depends on Waller's explanation. If rates remain unchanged but multiple officials dissent (expected 2-4 dissenting votes), it will be seen as a hawkish signal.
② Microsoft and Meta after-hours earnings (July 30, early morning Beijing time)
Microsoft focuses on whether Azure growth can hold at 40%, Copilot paid seats (already over 20 million last quarter), and whether capital expenditure will be sharply revised upward like Google's.
Meta's ad business is strong, but the market is more concerned whether AI spending will erode profits. If capital expenditure guidance is raised like Google's, it may trigger a new round of sell-off.
③ Middle East tensions flare again
Iran launched ballistic missiles at US bases which were intercepted; Brent crude oil broke above $87, pushing inflation pressure higher again, a key variable for market repricing of rate hike probabilities.
Tomorrow's Watchpoints
1. Early morning FOMC decision results: rate hike or not + vote distribution + Waller's wording;
2. Microsoft and Meta earnings: Azure growth, AI capital expenditure guidance, ad business outlook;
3. Whether the memory sector can stabilize: SK Hynix closed down today but turned up after hours, watch if it can steady market sentiment again.
----Mr. Xiaolong----July 29 | BTC Data Evening Report
BTC market
BTC is quoted near $64,500, with an intraday high of about $64,640 and a low of about $62,772, up about 1.3% in 24 hours. The price rebounded below $63,000 but has yet to regain the $65,000 level.
ETF funds
On July 28, the US spot BTC ETF saw a total net outflow of about $54.8 million, marking the fourth consecutive trading day of net outflow.
From July 23 to 28, the cumulative net outflow was approximately $532 million. The latest single-day outflows have narrowed compared to the previous two days, but institutional funds have yet to resume net inflows.
On-chain Tokens (Address Calibration)
Based on consecutive snapshots from July 28 to 29:
Below 10 BTC: net increase of about 287 BTC, latest total holdings about 3.4734 million BTC
10–100 BTC: Net decrease of about 857 BTC, latest total holdings about 4.2309 million BTC
Above 100 BTC: net increase of about 790 BTC, latest total holdings about 12.3559 million BTC
Internal changes above 100 BTC:
100–1,000 BTC: Net decrease of about 69 BTC
1,000–10,000 BTC: Net decrease of about 9,386 BTC
10,000–100,000 BTC: Net increase of about 10,245 BTC
Over 100,000 BTC: Basically unchanged
Total holdings above 100 BTC increase by 790 BTC, but the main change comes from migrations between 1,000–10,000 BTC and 10,000–100,000 BTC levels.
BTC exchange
In the most recent full day, the net BTC flow across all exchanges was about 1,206 BTC, ending the previous continuous net outflow.
This inflow is not extreme, but as ETFs continue to flow out, BTC is returning to exchanges, increasing short-term tradable shares. If there is a continuous net inflow in the future, liquidity pressure will increase further.
Contract data
BTC-related open interest remains high, with about $147 million in BTC contract liquidations in the past 24 hours; Total market liquidations amounted to about $604 million. The ratio of BTC long and short accounts is about 51.41% to 48.59%, with long accounts slightly dominant, but not to extreme congestion.
After a rapid dip, the price rebounded, but leverage has not fully exited. If prices continue to rebound and open interest increases in tandem, but spot trading volume does not significantly expand, caution is needed to be cautious if the rebound is again driven by contracts.
Important news today
The Federal Reserve will announce its interest rate decision tonight. The mainstream market expectation is to maintain **3.50%–3.75%**, but pricing in an unexpected 25 basis point rate hike is still close to 30%. The real focus affecting BTC is not the outcome of a single rate hike, but whether the declaration continues to strengthen the risk of future rate hikes.
The likelihood of the U.S. CLARITY Act passing before Congress recesses continues to decline. The Senate prioritized other agenda items, putting the crypto market structure bill at risk of delay, and the regulatory catalyst expectations previously priced in by the market were further weakened.
The situation in the Middle East has pushed oil prices higher again, and rising energy prices may once again intensify inflationary pressures. If oil prices rise in tandem with U.S. Treasury yields, even if the Fed does not raise rates this time, risk assets like BTC may still be suppressed by liquidity expectations.
Next, let's focus on the main focus
Whether the Fed keeps interest rates unchanged, and whether the statement hints at further rate hikes.
Can BTC hold above $64,000 and break through the $64,640–$65,000 range again?
Can ETFs end their four-day streak of net outflows?
Is the net BTC inflow on exchanges a single-day change, or is it just beginning to form a continuous flow backflow?
$BTC #星球日报 During ETH's "monkey market," many people forgot to look at this indicator. Have you noticed that going long or short today is tough? It's not that the market lacks direction, but that during turnover, people overlook the signals of strength and weakness between sectors. In fact, today's ETH ups and downs are on the surface price volatility, but behind it are funds reassembling across sectors. From 1860 to 1980 and then to 1855, this intense volatility was usually not random but rather a result of major players using the derivatives market to wash leverage. I noticed a key point: funding rates hovered at low levels, while open interest quietly declined amid volatility. What does this indicate? Both bulls and bears are reducing their positions, but the game of directional betting is actually accelerating—this is not confusion, but the market actively choosing its direction. In terms of sector strength, $BTC remained relatively firm today, while the elasticity of $SOL was suppressed, indicating that funds are concentrating on industry leaders and that the willingness of altcoins to follow the rise is weakening. This is related to the risk aversion sentiment triggered by the sharp drop in Korean stocks and the sharp drop in WTI crude oil, with everyone starting to reduce risk exposure instead of going long across the board. So this ETH fluctuation is essentially a test of the 2000 and 1800 resistance levels, but the real winner is: if ETH falls below 1850, it could trigger a long squeeze on derivatives; If it breaks through 1980, it could trigger a brief frenzy in the knockoff sector. But there is a risk here: after the expected ceasefire is realized, the sentiment recovery in risk assets may be temporary. If the funding rate turns positive again and reaches an extreme value, that would be a true short-term top signal.

But "Dan Bin has nine lives" — wishing him good luck $SKHY $NVDA 🚨 Short-Term Take: Why Did SK Hynix Fall Despite Strong Earnings?
SK Hynix delivered another strong quarter, but the market still sold the stock. This wasn't about weak fundamentals—it was about expectations.
Here's what matters in the short term:
• 📉 The sell-off was driven by valuation, not deteriorating business performance. Investors expected an even bigger beat, so "good" wasn't good enough.
• 🤖 The AI story remains intact. Demand for HBM and AI memory continues to be strong, with management indicating customer demand remains healthy.
• 🏭 The company also emphasized disciplined capacity expansion, reducing the risk of oversupply and supporting pricing over the near term.
• ⚠️ However, the market is becoming much more selective. Investors now want proof that AI spending, orders, and earnings growth can continue to justify premium valuations.
What I'm watching next:
- AI capex guidance from Microsoft, Meta, Google, and Amazon
- Memory demand trends for HBM and server DRAM
- The rest of the Q2 earnings season for confirmation that AI spending remains strong
Bottom line: The current weakness looks more like a valuation reset than a collapse of the AI narrative. As long as enterprise AI demand remains healthy, this pullback could prove to be a normal correction rather than the start of a long-term downtrend.
#FedRateDecision #BigTechEarningsNight $FLOW Contract Data—Bulls Taking Orders, Dog Farms Laying Ground!
Contract data best illustrates this. The 24-hour long-short ratio across the network is 0.895—bears crush the bulls. Binance's large account long-short ratio reaches 2.6887, while large account holdings are 1.5868—big players are going long, retail investors are panicking, and who is winning?
