The false breakout in 1982, combined with the Fed's knife pulled out. #30-year U.S. Treasury yields hit a 19-year high
😁 It's time again [Weekly Sharing]
Last week I said, 'If you hold 1840-1850, buy on the dip, target 1956.' The script was delivered out too thoroughly: Monday Auntie surged to 1982, KPIs exceeded expectations—then closed back to 1926. Fake breakouts, and those chasing higher stocks are once again left hanging on the mountaintop to be exposed to the wind. $ETH $BTC $SNDK
At the early Thursday morning FOMC, rates were held unchanged for the fifth time, but the details were alarming: 3 out of 12 members voted against and immediately called for a 25 basis point rate hike, marking the biggest division since 2016. Wash's harsh words: "This is not a pause," "The 2% inflation target is inelastic." U.S. stocks plunged immediately after hearing this, with the Dow down 2.2%; The 30-year Treasury yield soared to 5.2%, the highest since 2007. The crypto community pretended to be happy for a day (ETH +1.4%), but on Friday paid back principal and interest (-2.9%). The market is now seriously pricing in a "September rate hike"—60% probability. #财报观察员: Amazon's guidance fell short of expectations, but its stock price reversed to rise 9% #Strategy终止逢低买币, with a Q2 book loss of 8.2 billion
However, the bulls haven't given up: ETH hit the brakes for the third time on Friday between 1847-1850 (tested 7/24, 7/25, 7/31 unbroken), with the funding rate remaining neutral to cold, without a stomping down. BTC was a bit weaker, breaking through 62,500 on Friday, but fortunately closed and pulled back.
Next Monday's clear card: Friday night 8:30 PM nonfarm payrolls (expected 79K, previous 57K). Employment booming → Rising interest rate hike expectations → Hammered; Employment declines → breathe a sigh of relief and rebound.
Trading in three sentences: hold 1847-1850, light position and test long, stop loss below 1839; Don't hold on if it falls below 1800; if the structure breaks, run first; Before non-farm payrolls were implemented, the position was halved. The Fed has already pulled out its knife; don't reach out to catch it. 🚩🐵🐮🐮🐮🐮⛔️"US Treasury Yields Break Through, Risk Assets Should Not Aggressively Chase Higher Prices for Them"
I watch the Nasdaq, storage sector, and Bitcoin chart back and forth every day. The core signal in this chart is actually one sentence: the 30-year US Treasury yield has surged to 5.27%, hitting a 19-year high. Once this level is broken, the pricing of many subsequent assets will be re-suppressed.
Right now, the market isn't lacking good news—it's short on cash. The Fed is still voicing hawkish views, oil prices are rising again, inflationary stickiness hasn't been completely eliminated, and funds prefer to buy long-term bonds first for stable returns rather than easily push stocks and cryptocurrency prices higher. AI giants like Microsoft and Amazon surged sharply recently, but once interest rates are raised, the market tends to shift from broad-based increases to differentiation. Only those with solid earnings can withstand valuation pressure.
On the storage side, the logic hasn't completely broken yet. Cloud vendors continue to expand computing power, and long-term demand for enterprise-level flash memory targets like Micron and SanDisk remains. But I have to be honest, if interest rates are too high, it will suppress valuations for long-term stocks, especially for stocks like SanDisk, which have large gains and volatility. Even if they rebound later, they're more likely to become structural rotations, and not all storage stocks can rise together.
Bitcoin now seems to follow the Nasdaq and risk appetite, without standalone major market moves. With US Treasury yields remaining high, institutional funds are unlikely to massively increase spot positions. BTC is likely to remain mostly volatile, and real trend opportunities will only open up once the Fed clearly shifts to rate cuts.
In the coming period, I won't recommend heavily investing in any elastic asset. AI computing power and storage are indeed the main themes, but before U.S. Treasury yields fall, market funds will be very selective, only buying the most certain earnings yields. In the short term, controlling positions and swing trading is more suitable; don't mistake volatility for reversals. #30年期美债收益率创19年新高 Just reviewed Qualcomm's financial report, which basically faces the same "predicament" as Apple: companies not only fail to benefit from AI but instead increase demand and costs due to AI-driven growth, resulting in lower corporate profits
Although the financial report reported revenue exceeding expectations, profit margins are declining, with rising wafer costs leading to higher costs
In terms of market conditions, Qualcomm is actually more optimistic than Apple. Qualcomm executives said that the Chinese OEM phone business bottomed out in the third quarter, and the Chinese business may recover going forward. However, attention should be paid to the surge ≠ recovery, which can provide some support for Qualcomm's performance.
However, the business partnership with Apple has exceeded management's expectations for a decline, and Qualcomm needs to quickly find an alternative business to replace the assessment ODE demand, or it will further drag down the company
In AI, Qualcomm has begun to focus on automotive chips and data centers, and has already started making moves in AI.
Unfortunately, this quarter, the requirements for corporate financial reports have become even stricter, squeezing Qualcomm's profits. Although the AI sector is gaining momentum, it has yet to provide some support for corporate profits, leading to a drop in stock prices
Qualcomm's financial report basically proves one thing: the main theme of AI investment is further diverging. This is also the key focus of this quarter's earnings season following next week's reports from the seven giants. With AI structure differentiated, how can companies deliver satisfactory results?
Additionally, like Apple, Qualcomm's Chinese market has become the main drag on its current business, and corporate profit margins are being squeezed by tight AI supply chains. This is a pressure point for related business sectors in Q3-Q4 going forward.
Moreover, facing the impact of artificial intelligence in China, it means that, apart from leading AI companies, future profit margin pressures will be considerable! #财报观察员: Amazon's guidance falls short of expectations, yet stock price rises 9% The Federal Reserve's latest rate decision has been fully reflected in crypto market pricing, with Bitcoin falling about 2.8% since the decision was announced—a relatively mild reaction. This is unsurprising when viewed from the perspective of historical market behavior—price reactions after historical FOMC meetings have shown a consistent pattern, which traders should closely monitor. Historical data provides us with a clear framework to understand what may happen in the coming days or even weeks, which is crucial for making informed trading decisions. Looking back at the past seven Federal Reserve meetings, we can observe a highly consistent pattern in Bitcoin's price response. Of these seven instances, six saw Bitcoin fall between 4% and 5% on average after interest rate decisions and subsequent press conferences. This historical precedent suggests that the current decline may not be over yet, and there may be more downside potential before the market finds support and begins to recover. This pattern deserves attention both statistically and psychologically. The market's reaction to interest rate decisions is often somewhat predictable, reflecting the macroeconomic dynamics driving asset prices. Higher interest rates typically lead to lower valuations of risk assets like Bitcoin, as the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets rises relative to safe-haven assets like government bonds. This fundamental relationship explains why Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies tend to be sold off after interest rate hikes or hawkish remarks from the Federal Reserve. Based on historical patterns, the expected magnitude of the decline suggests we may see Bitcoin test the $60,000 to $61,000 range. ThisStop foolishly waiting for your altcoin to "rotate"—it might never come. This is one of the most important lessons that all cryptocurrency traders need to internalize in the current market environment. The biggest mistake many traders make is believing that every altcoin will eventually rotate and surge like in previous bull markets, but this assumption is extremely dangerous and could lead to significant gains or even losses. The current market structure is completely different from previous cycles. We have not experienced the traditional "alt season"—a market where all coins rally sharply regardless of fundamentals. We are witnessing a capital migration process, with smart money actively moving from one asset to another, driven by ever-changing narratives and market dynamics. This is not a sweeping wave that can carry all ships, but rather a selective process that rewards only specific assets while leaving others behind. Understanding this distinction is crucial for positioning yourself correctly in your current environment. The old script of "just buy any altcoin and wait for rotation to bring you profit" is no longer effective. The market has evolved, and traders must evolve accordingly; otherwise, they will end up holding positions that underperform the market and miss out on real opportunities. The days of indiscriminate buying in the altcoin market are over; instead, a more precise approach to operations has been adopted, requiring careful analysis and selective planning. The core insight is: smart money doesn't buy everything. Instead, they are concentrating funds among a few winners, while liquidity quietly withdraws from the rest of the assets. This capital concentration has a profound impact on traders' operational strategies. Instead of spreading your funds into a few groupsAfter SPCX fell below its issue price, investors may not have given up on Rocket and Starlink. They are withdrawing an unpaid $250 billion AI prepayment. $250 billion, $6.355 billion. - The previous figure is the valuation given to xAI when SpaceX acquired it. - The latter figure is the AI division's operating loss for 2025 disclosed in the prospectus.

The merged entity is valued at $1.25 trillion, with xAI accounting for about one-fifth of that.

Traditional aerospace assets and AI infrastructure are now being jointly borne by the same group of shareholders$SNDK Everyone, let me honestly share my experience with losses at SanDisk SNDK. This time, the drawdown was far greater than expected.
SNDK's recent performance has truly dealt a heavy blow to my account. This deep pullback in July caused huge unrealized losses. The positions I had invested at high levels had already dropped by more than half, and the pressure from these losses often kept me awake all night. Having witnessed its dozens of times increase this year and confident that the AI storage supercycle will continue to strengthen, it chose to hold a heavy position. Unexpectedly, the market trend suddenly shifted in July, with prices plunging sharply.
After experiencing losses and calmly reviewing the situation, let me share my objective judgment at the moment:
1. The fundamentals of the target have not deteriorated substantially
NAND flash demand remains strong, AI data centers continue to face supply gaps, companies hold large long-term supply orders, gross margins remain high, and financial reports consistently exceed market expectations. The tight supply-demand situation in storage has real support and is not merely thematic speculation.
2. Looking back, my trading mistakes were very prominent
• Taking chances during the sharp rally phase, failing to take profits in time and realize profits;
• At the beginning of the July downturn, there was still hope, no reduction or stop-loss plans implemented, and passive positions were taken;
• Extremely concentrated position allocation, ignoring the huge risks brought by volatility.
In the end, not only did most of the earlier profits recover, but the principal also suffered significant losses. The market has always been like this: when profiting in cycles, it's easy to become overconfident, and only after a round of declines does one face the harsh reality.
3. Personal observation approach for the market going forward
The single-day rebound of 26% on the 30th proves that the oversold range attracted funds to bottom-fish, indicating a short-term possibility of a market recovery. However, the medium-term direction will focus on early August financial reports and expectations for capital expenditure across the AI industry chain.
If the price can hold above the 1200–1300 range, there is still a chance for a recovery going forward; If it breaks out effectively again, it will likely require a long period of consolidation and bottoming.
Reflections after losses:
Heavily betting on a single stock inherently carries huge risks; even with solid track logic, it cannot avoid sudden sharp corrections. Subsequent trades must strictly follow stop-loss rules, maintain diversified positions, and keep idle cash flow on hand. In the long term, the AI storage sector remains optimistic, but short-term market sentiment and capital cycles bring about volatility that must not be underestimated.
Losses are a reality; admit your mistakes calmly, conduct thorough reviews, and adjust your mindset to seek new opportunities.
Friends who also hold SNDK can share their current situation: are they heavily invested and stuck, or are they taking advantage of the rebound to enter smoothly? Feel free to share independent ideas and avoid pitfalls together. #30年期美债收益率创19年新高 #谷歌为AI数据中心债务兜底, in exchange for a 20% stake "Clear Division of Three Market Segments: A Complete Overview of SanDisk's Subsequent Upward Decline Paths"
Every day, I watch the Nasdaq market to catch the market, keeping an eye on US Treasury yield fluctuations while tracking purchase orders from Microsoft and Amazon Web Services. Combining the target price levels set by major investment banks, I break down SanDisk's future trends in plain language.
Currently, this period is in a phase of consolidation and bottoming, and for the next month and a half, it will basically be stuck in the $1150 to $1450 range.
The 30-year Treasury yield remains at a nineteen-year high. Funds favor stable bond yields and are reluctant to aggressively invest in volatile growth stocks. Recently, the stock price fell nearly half from a high of $2,335, and the profit-taking accumulated at the high level has not been fully released. Every small rebound is met with selling pressure.
The release of the latest quarterly financial report on August 5 is the biggest turning point in the market recently. Goldman Sachs has pre-estimated that revenue and gross margin will continue to rise this quarter. With $42 billion in long-term supply contracts in hand, most of its capacity has long been locked in by cloud giants. As long as performance meets market expectations, the stock price will naturally climb above $1,500.
But if the growth rate fails to meet the target, all the previously hyped price gains will materialize, and the stock price will fall back to the $1,000 mark. During this period, it's only suitable for short-term swing trading, and holding heavy positions is unlikely to yield stable returns.
Once the Fed signals a rate cut, a second mid-term rebound will occur, roughly spanning the fourth quarter of this year through the first half of next year.
After the rate cuts took effect, U.S. Treasury yields gradually declined, overall market risk appetite warmed across the board, and capital will flow back into the AI semiconductor sector. Coupled with the widespread adoption of AI intelligent agents, demand for flash memory among major cloud servers continues to rise, and the tight supply of NAND chips is expected to last at least until mid-2027.
More than twenty Wall Street brokerages set an average target price of around $1,850, while optimistic institutions set a high range of $3,000. During this rally, SanDisk's market elasticity is much greater than Micron's, so its gains will outperform peers by a wide margin, making it the most suitable stage for mid-term positioning to capitalize on the gains during this period.
After entering the second half of 2027, the overall market will gradually shift toward a pullback under pressure.
After prolonged restraint by storage giants Samsung and SK Hynix, they will concentrate on releasing new flash memory capacity. Market supply will gradually shift from tight to loose, and the chip price hike cycle will come to an end. The drop in product prices will directly squeeze SanDisk's profit margins.
Moreover, the stock price had risen excessively over the past two years, accumulating a huge valuation bubble. Even if the company has long-term orders as a safety net, the stock price will enter a volatile downward channel, making it difficult to renew the historical high set earlier.
Based on my recent trading experience with storage stocks, in the short term, avoid rushing to bottom-fish or betting on a reversal. It's prudent to wait for the August earnings before setting a direction. For the medium term, you must tie your strategy to the Fed's rate cut point; for the long term, anticipate the capacity release cycle and exit in time. Keep in mind that this stock is highly volatile and is not suitable for all-in trading at any stage. #30年期美债收益率创19年新高 #财报观察员: Amazon's guidance fell short of expectations, but its stock price rebounded by 9% #微软单日市值增近4500亿, setting a record for US stocks SpaceX earnings report approaching: Surge or sell-off? Will the unlocking window trigger panic selling?
As SpaceX is about to release its latest financial data, market divides continue to widen. Many investors have begun to ponder two core questions: will this earnings report drive the stock price to an upward breakout, or will it trigger a sharp correction? Combined with the upcoming stock unlocking cycle, will the market experience large-scale panic selling?
Many people simply believe that unlocking means a sharp drop. This logic might work for ordinary listed companies, but it shouldn't be directly applied to SpaceX. Let's first clarify two core variables: financial fundamentals and the behavior of unlocked funds.
1. Earnings reports determine the medium-term direction; sentiment can only affect short-term fluctuations
The fundamental factor determining medium- to long-term trends is always the operating expectations conveyed by financial reports; unlocking is only a short-term disturbance.
The market is currently focusing on several key data sets: Starlink revenue growth, Starship R&D capital expenditure, gross margin level, free cash flow gap, and commercial launch order reserves.
1. If the financial report shows: Starlink user growth exceeds expectations, service gross margin continues to improve, launch business generates steady revenue, and capital expenditures are controllable. Even when facing the lock-up, funds will choose to take over, and the selling pressure from the unlock is easily absorbed by the bulls, making the market easier to rise than fall.
2. If the financial report reveals hidden risks: Starlink revenue growth without profit growth, continued large cash burns, cash flow consumption faster than market estimates, and Starship project progress slower than expected. Then the unlocking would become the trigger, causing early shareholders who had been waiting to see off the market en masse, triggering a phased sell-off.
Unlike traditional tech companies, SpaceX supports both aerospace infrastructure and satellite internet, with market pricing heavily relying on long-term stories. If the earnings report weakens long-term earnings expectations, valuations will shrink rapidly.
2. Unlocking does not mean mindless selling; you need to distinguish the holder structure
The unlockdown panic essentially stems from low-cost early-stage investors realizing their returns, but whether to sell depends on the capital's nature:
Part of this is long-term financial and industrial capital, optimistic about the space economy in the long run, and will not sell in concentrated short periods;
The other part consists of early-stage angel investors and employee stock ownership, whose holding costs are extremely low and there is a strong demand for cash in—this is the source of potential selling pressure.
At the same time, a key point to note is that SpaceX's secondary market circulation is not sufficient. If there is concentrated selling, short-term liquidity will be insufficient, easily amplifying volatility; But conversely, once long-term funds are optimistic about the sector, they can quickly absorb selling pressure.
Don't fall into a one-sided mindset: unlocking does not necessarily mean a decline, it only increases volatility. Unlocking during a rally often brings negative news; Unlocking during a downtrend will lead to amplified corrections.
3. Market Prediction Two Scenarios
Scenario 1: Financial fundamentals meet or even exceed expectations
Positive news suppresses negative unlocking issues. Even if there is a small short-term sell-off, it will still be taken over by funds optimistic about long-term value. Market attention will quickly focus on Starlink commercialization and Starship's future space, with panic caused by the unlocking quickly fading and a recovery rally emerging from the market.
Scenario 2: Financial data falls short of expectations
Double negative factors resonate. Weak fundamentals combined with the unlocking window have spread pessimism. Early shareholders seized the rebound window to concentrate their cash-out, which easily triggered a phased pullback.
4. Final Core Conclusion
Do not view the lifting of restrictions in isolation. The unlocking is only a catalyst; the fundamentals of financial reports are the real foundation of the market.
If operating data continues to verify commercialization logic, the sell-off caused by the unlocking is only a short-term episode; Once fundamentals crack appear, unlocking becomes an amplifier of declines.
For traders, there is no need to pre-predict ups and downs. Wait for the core financial data to be released before observing the real inflow and outflow behavior of funds in the unlocking window. Before news materializes, over-betting on one-sided market moves requires bearing extremely high uncertainty risks. $XSPCX #SpaceX获 $1.6B US military contract, stock price plunge sparks two controversies This bear market has been extremely dull, and the only catalyst worth watching is whether the bill can pass.
If the White House does not provide substantial support before the recess, Bitcoin is very likely to hit its final bottom in Q4. Currently, the bill is stuck in the ethics clause, and the market predicts that the probability of passage within the year is less than 28%.
If the bill is postponed, Bitcoin is very likely to fall below previous lows and complete capitulation sell-offs, which perfectly confirms the four-year cycle pattern. This final drop can wash away the remaining leverage, completely clearing out the market—this is an excellent proactive buying opportunity.
I don't predict the lowest point, keeping half my funds for bottom-fishing and the other half for small regular investments, keeping costs around 50,000 to 60,000. In the next bull market, aim for 150,000 to 180,000 yuan. A 2 to 3x return converted to an annualized 40% return is very good. Don't be too greedy when trading.
When building a position, you can set up a range dollar-cost averaging strategy, allowing the system to buy automatically at different frequencies, eliminating interference from market monitoring, and just ensuring discipline is properly executed.
#白宫回应将决定CLARITY法案下周能否投票 It's inconvenient to type right after getting your nails done, but I have to say this is the market
I just finished my nails this afternoon and want to post a beautiful selfie
But as soon as I opened the market app, my hand stopped right on the screen
BTC 63,073, ETH 1,870, SOL 73, all with shrinking volume and a decline across the board
I stared at the plate for ten minutes, forgetting to dry my nails
Then guess what
Despite the decline, on-chain data is actually warmer
Market sentiment is 5 buys, 5 holds, 0 sells, and liquidity index points to Buy
The high cost of selling is high, making it easier to treat the market as a bottom area
This kind of buying and falling structure shows that funds are quietly buying in
I flipped through today's macro view
PCE turns negative month-on-month, GDP growth slows to 1.5%
The yield on 30-year U.S. Treasury notes hit a 19-year high
On one hand, the economy is cooling; on the other, long-term interest rates are soaring
With these two forces tugging, the market naturally becomes entangled
So my judgment is
In the short term, it will still be volatile; don't expect a one-sided rally
If the price drops on shrinking volume, don't chase short sellers; even if it rebounds, don't rush to go long
I'll wait for a direction with increased volume to decide which side to take
And by the way, let's take a look at what everyone has been talking about lately:
#30年期美债收益率创19年新高
PCE turning negative and GDP slowing again, signals of economic cooling are mounting, and the market is starting to reprice the pace of rate cuts. Liquidity expectations are good news for crypto, but in the short term, they haven't been transmitted to the market yet. I'll treat macro data as background and wait for volume to ramp up before acting
#30年期美债收益率创19年新高
The 30-year U.S. Treasury yield hit a 19-year high, indicating that long-term rates are still rising, global capital is suppressing risk appetite, and risk asset valuations are naturally dragged down. I treat this as the biggest headwind recently, keeping my position at a level I can sleep in
#特朗普称对伊失去信心, preparing for another strike

$BTC $ETH #宏观 #盘面BTC relative strength determines everything; this is not an alt season but a capital reshuffle. Every time the market fluctuates, the illusion that "all alts rise" resurfaces, but where is the liquidity actually moving? Looking at the current on-chain and exchange fund flows, there is a clear winner-takes-all structure where the gains are extremely concentrated in specific assets. Real buying funds are pouring into assets like JTO, JELLYJELLY, OPG, LAB, BSB, ALLO, CHIP, while funds are exiting from BEAT, EDGE, COAI, TRUMP, VIRTUAL, and others. This is not a phase where the entire market rises together, but a process where limited liquidity is being reallocated to certain assets. The funds leading this flow appear to be those calculating specific themes and liquidity depth to position themselves, rather than short-term speculative money. The expectation that the whole market will rise is less reflected in prices than the recognition that profit opportunities occur only in some assets. Market participants' attention is focused on BTC and a few large-cap alts Russia is getting serious this time—even Moscow has joined the mining blacklist, and the ban lasts until 2032—a full eight years. Since the start of the year, when some parts of Siberia started cutting power and stopped working, I felt the Russians were about to go all out with miners. Sure enough, now even the capital region can't be saved. The reason is straightforward: electricity is insufficient and mining consumes too much electricity. Did you know that Russia is the world's second-largest mining country? Second only to the United States. After Kazakhstan collapsed last year, a large amount of computing power moved to Russia, but now it is no longer welcome. With the power infrastructure lagging behind, the Russians chose to prioritize people's livelihoods, which is actually reasonable. The power of a crypto mining farm to devour electricity is truly terrifying. I think this will have a deep impact, and the global computing power landscape will be reshuffled again. Those miners who hadn't had time to transfer were probably anxious and anxious now. Interestingly, if the ban is properly enforced now, the network's computing power may drop in the short term. Moreover, miners will face less pressure to sell, because many people have nowhere to start their machines and are even more reluctant to sell their $BTC. Speak up, miners have really had a tough time lately. Not to mention the distant future, just in the past six months, electricity prices have risen, policies have tightened in various countries, and with the volatility of coin prices, too many small mining farms have been unable to hold on. Some worry that concentrated computing power in the U.S. could be manipulated, but I think that's overthinking. Bitcoin's decentralization is at the protocol layer, not geographically. As long as the incentive mechanism remains unchanged, it doesn't matter where miners go. The key is to look at the changes in mining returns after Ethereum's upgrade at the end of August—this is the real turning point for the industry$SOON 前些天连涨了三天，之后就回调了。 在经历了一段时间的下跌之后，它的走势开始趋于稳定了。 目前，$SOON 是在震荡上涨的。 因为是震荡上涨嘛，所以现在它的位置也不算是比较高，价格也不算很贵。 那现在问题就来了，这个位置去抄底怎么样呢？ 我不太好回答这个问题，因为这个币的情况有点特殊。 我很久没有碰到过这种情况了。 —————————————————— 我们去看一下它近期的合约数据。 可以发现，在$SOON 下跌过程中，它的持仓量和合约多空比的变化是不太一样的。 在$SOON 急速下跌的阶段，它的合约持仓量在迅速下降，同时合约多空比在迅速上升。 这说明很多的空头在获利了结。 在$SOON 趋于稳定的阶段，它的合约持仓量没有什么太多变化，但是合约多空比依然在快速上升。 我个人认为，在这个阶段，有很多的空头转为了多头。 我们再来看一下它近两天的合约数据。 我们可以发现，它的持仓量和合约多空比的变化基本上是同步的。 这不奇怪，但是如果我们把它的合约数据和它的价格变化结合起来看，就会发现这三个数据基本上都是同步的。 这说明这两天资金基本上是在市价买入卖出，我不是很理解这种操作。 市价The 30-year US Treasury yield surged to 5.27%, hitting a new high since 2007. This is not an ordinary market fluctuation but a typical "bear steepening" scenario—the bond market is casting a real-money vote with its feet against the Federal Reserve. 1. What happened? On July 29, the Federal Reserve held interest rates steady for the seventh consecutive time, keeping the benchmark rate locked at 3.50%-3.75%. However, three FOMC voters dissented, advocating for an immediate 25bp rate hike. Meanwhile, second-quarter domestic demand hit a two-year high, and oil prices rose about 20% in a single month, jointly pushing inflation expectations higher. The result: the 2-year Treasury yield fell, but the 30-year yield surged 14 basis points to 5.23%. The yield curve between short and long ends completely diverged, with the steepening degree reaching its highest since the mid-1990s. This is not a bet on a single rate hike but a market repricing of the US's long-term fiscal and inflation risks. 2. Impact on capital markets The US stock market took the hardest hit. The S&P 500 dropped 1.5% that day, the Nasdaq fell 2.1%, and the Dow Jones even plunged 1,153 points at one point. The logic is straightforward: with the risk-free rate sitting above 5.2%, the discount rate for equity cash flows is significantly raised. Companies relying on long-term cash flow narratives—especially tech and AI concept stocks—have their valuation ceilings severely suppressed. Goldman Sachs asset management strategists even view the current situation as a "contrarian entry opportunity," but this feels more like the courage to buy on the left side rather than a trend judgment. 3. Impact on the crypto market Bitcoin, as a high-risk, non-yielding asset, faces dual pressures: First, the maTether earned $1.5 billion in one quarter and bought another 14 tons of gold
Many people still associate Tether with issuing $USDT and earning interest from reserves
But what I care more about is what it buys after making money
The latest quarterly disclosure shows Tether’s net operating profit is about $1.5 billion, while it also increased its gold holdings by about 14 tons, bringing the total to around 146 tons. U.S. Treasuries remain the core of its reserves, but the weight of gold is steadily increasing
This company talks about digital dollars every day, but what it actually hoards are U.S. Treasuries, gold, and Bitcoin, which is quite interesting 👀
The reason is not hard to understand. The larger the stablecoin scale, the more the market cares whether the underlying money can be withdrawn. In the event of a concentrated redemption, users won’t care how well the story is told; they will only look at whether the reserves are solid enough and liquidity sufficient
So Tether’s continuous purchase of gold is not just a bet on rising gold prices, but also an added layer of insurance for USDT’s credit
While most people are still focused on coin price fluctuations, Tether has already started hoarding assets that can withstand cycles
In the end, the stablecoin battle is not about who issues the most, but who can really deliver the money when the market panics

SatPay Mastercard Co-branded Payment System: converts on-chain crypto assets into offline physical card swiping and merchant collection capabilities, serving as the entry and exit for Web3 assets to be implemented in real consumption. Fees flow back to the treasury to buy back CORE, forming an economic closed loop.
3. Developer Tools Layer
The official offer offers a full set of block explorers, node APIs, contract audit tools, and gas rebate incentive mechanisms, continuously attracting external DApp developers to join; Currently, the ecosystem has launched 125+ Web3 decentralized applications.
3. Core Advantages of Web3: Non-custodial Rigid Needs
Users hold their private keys throughout the process, so BTC and CORE assets are not held or frozen by the platform; Whether retail investors or institutions, asset control is entirely in their own wallets, which is the core prerequisite for European and American institutions to be willing to join.
2. Details of RWA (Real-World Assets On-Chain) Implementation in the CORE Ecosystem (Application Layer)
1. Benchmark Implementation Project: ASX Capital Real Estate Tokenization
This is the most mature RWA case in the Core ecosystem:
1. Underlying assets: Multiple apartment commercial real estate buildings in the United States mint rental income rights and asset appreciation rights into on-chain NFT certificates;
2. Participation model: Users use stablecoins to purchase real estate NFTs in fragmented chains, with a threshold of only $10, breaking the traditional high down payment requirement for home purchases;
3. Earning Rules: Holders automatically receive monthly rental dividends (USDC settlement), with stable annualized returns of 7.2%–8.5%. NFTs can also be freely traded on the secondary market;
4. Market validation: The first round of 3,000 NFTs sold out within one hour of public sale, marking two rounds of real estate asset on-chain listing.
2. Dedicated RWA trading marketplace: Blockz
Official self-developed NFT + RWA integrated trading marketplace, core highlights:
- Native support for issuance, listing, and settlement of real estate, debt, and commodity RWA assets, no need for cross-chain bridges, reducing contract risk;
- Trading fees are automatically used for staking dividends, linking market revenue to CORE token holders' earnings;
- Relying on BTC computing power endorsement for on-chain confirmation, institutional-grade assets can complete full evidence audits when listed on-chain.
3. Other areas to expand RWA
1. Compliant Debt Category: Overseas microcredit, tokenization of bond income rights;
2. Physical goods: precious metals and bulk warehouse commodities are chained in sections;
3. Institutional side: On-chain certificate storage and circulation of shares from traditional funds and asset management products.
4. Institutional RWA implementation evidence
Listed companies like BTCS and DeFi Technologies not only allocate CORE spot holdings but also use the on-chain RWA market to complete on-chain accounting and liquidity activation of some physical real estate and debt assets; The London Stock Exchange BTC staking ETP is essentially a compliant financial RWA derivative.
3. Web3 + RWA Complete Closed-Loop Logic
1. Underlying layer (Web3 public chain): BTC computing power security + EVM compatibility, providing a trusted, decentralized blockchain environment;
2. Middle-layer (DeFi tools): lst-BTC, lending, DEX, responsible for asset activation and liquidity;
3. Upper layer (RWA implementation): Tokenize real assets such as real estate and debt, bringing physical cash flow on-chain;
4. Export (SatPay Payment): On-chain RWA yields and crypto assets, which can be monetized offline through physical consumption scenarios;
5. Economic Return: Fees are generated across the entire chain→ treasury buybacks and CORE are burned, completing the token deflation closed loop.
4. Objective Shortcomings: Existing limitations in narrative implementation
1. RWA is relatively small in scale
Currently, only US real estate ASX projects have formed large-scale users; other categories of RWA are still in the testing and pilot stages; Overall, the amount of RWA locked is far smaller than the scale of on-chain native DeFi staking.
2. Shortcomings in legal confirmation of rights
On-chain NFTs only represent revenue rights fractional and do not equate to full legal property rights of physical real estate; Overseas SPV isolation structures only apply within the local judicial system, and there are compliance gray areas across borders.
3. Ecological dependence incentives
Early users and developers still rely on token mining incentives; Completely independent from subsidies and relying solely on RWA business to generate self-sustaining will require long-term validation.
5. Summary in one sentence
CORE first built decentralized infrastructure with Bitcoin-secure Web3 public chains, then moved real estate and debt cash flows onto the chain through RWA, and finally connected offline real-world consumption with SatPay;
Currently, Web3 infrastructure is fully established, RWA has produced benchmark small projects, but large-scale physical assets are fully implemented, still a medium- to long-term narrative.Chinese storage enters LPDDR6, and the era of high profits for Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron is about to change!
The storage industry, a market long dominated by Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron, is now experiencing new variables.
According to U.S. Investment Network, Changxin Memory Corporation (CXMT) is nearing completion of LPDDR6 R&D validation, bringing it closer to mass production.
Its first LPDDR6 product:
Data rates reach 12,800Mbps
Supports 16Gb storage chips
Uses 1295-ball PoP packaging
If the news is true, the significance goes beyond just "having an extra domestic chip."
More importantly:
China's storage is moving from catching up to global competition.
What does this mean for Samsung?
The short-term impact is limited.
Samsung's true core profit has gradually shifted to:
HBM, high-performance AI storage.
But if new vendors emerge in the LPDDR market, it will bring a change:
The upside for storage prices may be squeezed.
In recent years, AI demand has driven DRAM price increases, with Samsung, Micron, and SK Hynix enjoying high profit cycles.
If supply increases in the future, the market will refocus:
How much longer can storage prices rise?
What does this mean for US storage stocks?
Micron is under the greatest pressure.
This is because Micron is highly dependent on DRAM cycles.
If the market starts worrying about future supply increases, it may trade in advance:
"Is the storage supercycle nearing its end?"
SK Hynix's impact is relatively smaller.
Because its biggest moat isn't phone memory, but rather:
AI server HBM.
As long as Nvidia's AI demand continues to grow, HBM will remain a core source of profit.
SanDisk's direct impact is relatively small.
But the entire storage sector will be affected by sentiment.
Investors will reassess:
Is this round of storage rally a sign of long-term demand growth or a cyclical high?
The future of the storage industry will be more than just technology.
Also:
Capacity, cost, yield, and capital input.
For Samsung, Micron, and SK Hynix:
The HBM opportunities brought by AI are still there.
However, the traditional DRAM market may welcome a new competitor.
LPDDR6 is just the beginning; what truly changes the storage landscape is Chinese manufacturers entering the previously most profitable areas of Samsung and Micron.
$MU $SKHY $SNDK $WDC $AMD #美股Amazon has directly raised its 2026 capital expenditure to $220 billion, which is $20 billion more than estimated, and will spend 1.6 trillion RMB annually. The numbers look staggering, but when you look at the latest financial report, the spending is far from reckless
🤔 Specifically, there are three core logics:
🪁 Demand is not a false boom; cloud business growth is now fully maxed out
AWS's Q2 revenue surged 37% year-over-year, marking the highest growth rate in nearly four years, with backlog orders approaching $500 billion. CEO Jassi also admitted that including plans for 2027 and 2028, computing power will still be in short supply. This shows that enterprise demand for AI and cloud services is truly strong
🪁 A large portion of the new 20 billion yuan is actually paying for costs
This budget increase is not only about building more data centers but also driven by hardware price hikes. High-end storage and chip supply are in short supply, driving up procurement costs. A significant portion of the new money is absorbing the hard costs of rising supply chains
🪁 Short-term cash flow turned negative, but arms race giants have no way out
The massive spending has led to Amazon's negative free cash flow over the past 12 months, but this is a strategic investment—if you're slow and your computing power can't keep up, customers will turn to Microsoft or Google. As long as the demand is real, heavy asset infrastructure will be a stable monetization period for several years, and short-term tightness is entirely within controllable range
✍️ Looking ahead, several trends can be predicted:
🪁 Bottlenecks shift, and storage and electricity have become new pain points
Buying GPUs alone is no longer enough; storage components and power supply are becoming new bottlenecks in production capacity. Whoever can stabilize energy and supply chains can truly deliver computing power
🪁 Self-developed chips will accelerate their rollout
Faced with high procurement costs, Amazon will aggressively promote its own Trainium and Graviton chips later. This not only lowers costs for customers but also saves money and raises profit margins
🪁 The upstream hardware industry chain continues to quietly make money
The AI infrastructure that giants can't stop will most directly benefit upstream suppliers of high-end storage, optical modules, and data center power, and this boom will at least last a long time
In summary, Amazon's budget increase this time is driven by both strong demand and cost pressures. The AI infrastructure arms race among tech giants is far from over; the halftime game is just beginning
Non-investment advice DYOR #财报观察员: Amazon's guidance falls short of expectations, but stock price rises 9% #微软单日市值增近4500亿, setting a record in the US stock market: Microsoft's market value surged by $450 billion in a single day. Behind this record-breaking record is the AI entering its "cash-out period."
If we rewind two years, many people would think AI is just a story.
And now, capital is beginning to believe that it is turning into profit.
Microsoft's market value increased by nearly $450 billion in a single day, setting a new record in US stock market history. Many people interpret this as overheated market sentiment, but I prefer to see it as a repricing of the valuation system.
What truly drove capital to buy in was not this financial report, but Microsoft's proof of something:
AI has already begun to create real business value.
Azure cloud business continues to benefit from AI demand, Copilot is driving enterprise software into new pricing models, and enterprise customers are willing to continue paying for higher productivity.
What capital loves is never concepts, but the cash flow that can be continuously replicated.
This is also why, while some companies are investing in AI, their stock prices are fleeting, while Microsoft keeps hitting new all-time highs.
Because the market is beginning to believe that it possesses not just technology, but a complete AI business ecosystem capable of sustainably making money.
This reminds me of a phenomenon in trading.
Many people always like to ask:
"Is it too high now?"
But truly outstanding trends almost always keep breaking through the "already high position" that seems high.
Because prices are rising, not because they have increased, but because market expectations for future earnings are continuously rising.
As the trade progressed, I guessed the top less and less.
Rather than predicting when it will end, I focus more on one question:
Is the core logic driving the rise still there?
As long as capital is still willing to raise future profit expectations and fundamentals remain strong, so-called "historical highs" are often just the starting point for the next round of gains.
Of course, this does not mean the risk has disappeared.
When the market begins to price in growth for the next five or even ten years in advance, any signal that falls short of expectations can trigger sharp volatility.
So, I always stick to one principle:
Don't be bullish just because prices hit new highs, nor be bearish just because prices hit new highs. What is truly worth following is whether the capital continues to raise its pricing for the future.
Prices can be deceiving, emotions can be deceived, but long-term, continuous inflows rarely deceive.
This is also the trading philosophy I have always adhered to: respect the trend, but always trade logic, not emotion.My dad asked me what DeFi is, and I said, don't worry about it, I'll help you buy it
Yesterday, my dad suddenly asked me, what exactly is DeFi that you young people talk about?
I was stunned for a moment. I've said this word so well, but trying to explain it would just stuck
I thought about it and decided to start with the simplest explanation: no bank required, just code to manage money
Then guess what
After hearing this, he immediately asked, "Is it safe to keep the money inside?"
I rolled my eyes and showed him Tether's just-released financial report
Tether's quarterly profit reached $1.5 billion, and its gold reserves rose to 146 tons
A stablecoin company earns more than most publicly listed companies
Behind this is actually a major signal
Stablecoins are no longer just small-time toys; they're legitimate money-making machines
Ethereum's mainnet has also been running continuously for eleven years
This code management system has run for eleven years without any major problems
So my judgment is
This DeFi wave isn't hype—it's real demand that's growing
Stablecoins combined with on-chain will only become more mainstream in the future
But for my dad's money, I'll keep it safe for him first
Let's also chat about a few trending topics to see if any of them are worth following:
#Tether季度盈利15亿, gold increased to 146 tons
The stablecoin leader earned $1.5 billion in a single quarter, with gold piled up to 146 tons. This money-attracting power surpasses many listed companies, indicating that the real demand for on-chain stablecoins is still rising. If I use it as a thermometer for industry health, I dare not worry about its profits
#白宫回应将决定CLARITY法案下周能否投票
Whether the CLARITY Act can be voted on next week is the biggest variable for the White House to reshuffle. If this bill passes, compliant stablecoins and exchanges will have to reshuffle. I see it as the biggest policy watershed in the second half of the year, and I won't dare to overdo positions before implementation
#以太坊主网十一周年: Eleven years of uninterrupted operation and ecological achievements
Ethereum has been running for eleven years without ever going down. This reliability is truly rare in the crypto world. The on-chain ecosystem has grown from transfers to lending, stablecoins, and various protocols. I use it as the anchor for crypto infrastructure, and when prices fall, I dare to take it slowly
$ETH #DeFi #稳定币AMD's earnings report hasn't even been released, but its stock price has already finished a bull and bear cycle.
A few days ago, AMD rebounded violently along with the chip sector, and many people started shouting:
Finally, it's its turn to challenge Nvidia. $AMD
However, on Friday, AMD surged to near $515 but ended up closing at $476, giving back almost all its intraday gains.
I think this surge and pullback is more worth watching than a simple rise.
Because AMD is not short of stories right now.
The market expects its Q2 revenue to grow nearly 50% year-on-year, with profits potentially multiplying several times. Data centers and AI chips remain the core sources of growth.
AMD recently signed a new AI data center partnership with Core Scientific, with the initial plan to secure 500 megawatts of capacity, and the potential expansion to 2.5 gigawatts in the future.
What does that mean?
AMD is no longer satisfied with just selling chips.
It is actively binding data centers, power, and computing infrastructure, aiming to truly fit its GPUs into more AI clusters.
Once this path is cleared, AMD will no longer be just a "cheap version of NVIDIA."
But now the biggest problem is here:
Everyone has already set their earnings expectations too high in advance.
AMD's stock price has doubled this year, and its current valuation is not cheap. The options market even bet that stock prices could fluctuate up or down by nearly 10% after earnings reports.
In other words, even if the financial report is just "good," it may not be enough.
What the market really wants to see are three things:
First, can data center revenue continue to grow rapidly;
Second, have AI GPU orders significantly accelerated;
Third, can management provide follow-up guidance stronger than market expectations?
If all three exceed expectations, AMD may continue to challenge previous highs.
But if any one of these items isn't impressive enough, those who have been hiding in previous earnings reports may be the first to cash in.
I won't chase AMD just because it hits $500 now.
Nor do they immediately think the market is over just because it surges or falls.
The most dangerous thing before an earnings report is never when stocks rise too much.
But the market has already taken it as:
It must deliver a perfect answer.
After the market closed on August 4, AMD's real challenge was not whether it had an AI story.
It's about whether it can truly snatch enough money from Nvidia.
This is for personal market observation only and does not constitute investment advice. DYOR.My boyfriend said this coin was not good, but it ended up rising tenfold
At midday today, I saw a bunch of unexpected surprises during the US stock earnings season
Amazon's guidance falls short of expectations, yet stock price rises 9%
Microsoft's market value increased by nearly 450 billion in a single day, setting a new record in the US stock market
I thought to myself, is this market just putting on a show?
Then guess what
BTC 63040 fell 2%, but the liquidity index shows a buy
The high cost of selling off stocks has ironically become a bottom signal
The contract long-short ratio may be overly concentrated in the Buy long position
Market sentiment: 5 buy, 5 hold, 0 sell, neutral bullish
So my judgment is
This situation of buying and falling is a typical bottom-level game
Large funds accumulate in panic, while retail investors exit during stop-loss losses
I chose to wait and see for confirmation of the breakout
There are a few more noteworthy topics today, so let's talk about them together:
#30年期美债收益率创19年新高
After the long-term breakout above the 19-year range, whether the 5.3% is the top or a new starting point will determine the valuation anchor for risk assets in August. Therefore, my judgment is that the long-term new high means inflation expectations remain intact, and risk asset valuations will continue to be under pressure, which cannot be ignored
#财报观察员: Amazon's guidance falls short of expectations, yet stock price rises 9%
The market has long digested Amazon's weak guidance, and the rebound is actually due to a clear outlook. So my judgment is that the market has started using growth stock logic to reverse the AI narrative, and this rally may last for some time, or even longer
#微软单日市值增近4500亿, setting a record for the US stock market
Microsoft's AI cloud business continues to see volume growth, with a single-day increase equivalent to a mid-cap crypto market cap. Therefore, my judgment is that tech giants are the real safe haven for capital right now. Other sectors are still in turbulence, waiting for clear direction signals before entering
$BTC #美股 #宏观Since the FOMC, Bitcoin has fallen by 2.8%—so far, this has not been surprising.
In the past seven FOMC reactions, BTC has dropped an average of 4-5% in six of those times. If this trend resembles previous patterns, we may test the low $60-61K range.
The key points remain. If this level is lost, we are likely to sweep the price lower.
#BTC Price Analysis# #Macro Insights #How to tell when the storage cycle has peaked?
I believe that rather than guessing, it's better to focus on these four indicators.
First, look at gross margin. Fixed costs in the storage industry are very high. Once prices start to reverse, gross margins often fall faster than revenue, which is usually the earliest signal of a cycle peak.
Second, let's look at the CapEx of the four major cloud providers. Google, Microsoft, Meta, and Amazon are the real demand side. If one day AI capital spending is clearly cut, I believe this will be the most vigilant signal for the entire storage industry.
Third, look at the spot price, not the contract price. In previous storage cycles, spot prices started to loosen first, followed by contract prices. If spot prices fall and contracts remain firm in the future, it often means inventory has started to accumulate.
Fourth, look at new production capacity. Especially the expansion progress of manufacturers like Changxin Memory (CXMT) in 2027-2028. If a large amount of new capacity is released on schedule or even ahead of schedule, the supply landscape may change.
Therefore, I believe that when determining when storage cycles have peaked, there's no need to rely on intuition or guess prices every day. Focus on gross margin, CapEx, spot prices, and new capacity—these four indicators often tell you the answer earlier than stock prices.
$SNDK $SKHYNIX $MU 1. Risk signals already posted on the weekend market
1. Macro End: Aftershocks from Fed hawkishness + long-term US Treasury breakout
On July 29, the FOMC held the rate unchanged at 3.50%–3.75%, but three members voted against rate hikes. Walsh made it clear that "the 2% inflation target is uncompromising and not providing forward-looking guidance," marking the most divided rate since 2016.
The 30-year U.S. Treasury yield surged to 5.20% (the highest since 2007), while the 10-year yield was near 4.68%. The rise in real interest rates directly drained valuation anchors from cash-free assets.
CME prices a rate hike probability of about 82% in September, with the rate cut narrative temporarily dead. → crypto market, as a high-beta risk asset, is the first to bear the brunt.
2. Derivatives: Funding rates haven't been fully laid, and open interest remains at a high level
Last night, there were $362 million in liquidations across the internet (236 million in long positions), but BTC open interest remains at its highest level since 2026, indicating that while bulls have exploded, short positions and bottom-fishing leverage have piled up again.
Binance's BTC 8H funding rate was about +0.0039%, ETH about +0.01%, both low but not deeply negative—meaning it's not a "panic clearance," but rather "both bulls and bears are still gambling," with every dip in the weekend.
Fear and greed index is 17–27 (extreme panic), but the rates show no deep negative values, indicating retail investors are panicking and contract players are still holding on, making it easy to follow the weekend scenario of inserting the needle to sweep stop-losses and then return.
3. Funding Situation: ETF liquidity cut off + weak on-chain support
Spot BTC ETFs saw net outflows for eight consecutive weeks, with Q2 net redemptions setting a record high; Mining companies sold 32,000 BTC in Q1, exceeding the full year of 2025.
The Bid/Ask order is only 0.30, with thin buying depth. During weekend US market closures and market making cancellations, hundreds of thousands of dollars can break through the 1-hour support level.
4. Event window: CLARITY bill vote before 8/7 + Middle East oil prices
The probability of a vote on the U.S. CLARITY Act before the Senate recess on 8/7 dropped to 30–35%, dashing positive expectations.
Brent is approaching 90, Middle East tensions are fluctuating, oil prices → inflation → rate hike expectations remain under pressure.
2. The weekend-specific "pin trap" (directly related to your 4H level)
Liquidity trap: No US stocks or ETF subscriptions and redemptions over the weekend, and Binance/OKX market making thickness halved. The key levels you set in your previous round (BTC 62.5k, ETH 1.847k) may be instantly pierced and pulled back over the weekend. If you buy too much without breaking the 4H closing line, you'll be swept away.
Funding rate settlement tip: Binance Perpetual settles every 8 hours (00/08/16 UTC = Beijing 08/16/24 UTC). Although the fee is low, there are often people who manipulate the market before and after settlement under thin trading to act as counter-traders.
ETH/BTC weakening rate amplifies ETH's downward slope: You noticed in the last round that ETH was weaker than BTC in 4H. If BTC remains sideways and ETH continues to decline over the weekend, the exchange rate will bleed up, making ETH break 1.847k smoother and steeper than BTC breaking 62.5k.
Asian hours (Beijing 8–11 a.m.) and around 4 a.m. are peak weekend window for insertion due to holidays in Europe and the US, and the thinnest Asian retail markets.
3. Weekend Market Monitoring Priorities (by Importance)
Can BTC 4H close and reclaim 63.9k—if it doesn't, all pullbacks are just short relays; Close below 62.5k, open 61.3k→60k vacuum.
Can ETH recover 1.9k—if it can't recover and BTC is sideways, ETH will break below 1.847k and move to 1.82–1.80k.
Sunday US Eastern Time (Beijing Monday 04:00–08:00) settlement + before the Asian session opens on Monday, the most likely scenario is "weekend false breakout→ Monday's true direction."
On the macro side, only two things are considered: whether the 10Y US Treasury bond will continue to push to 4.7%+, and whether the US dollar index will stay above 100—if these two remain unchanged, the crypto market's weekend rebound will be a selling point, not a buying opportunity.
In short: this weekend is not a bottom-fishing weekend, but a weekend to prevent insertion. Before the 4H structure gives a signal of strengthening, the reverse pull in the thin chart is treated as "short close position," not as "bottom support"; Keep a wide stop loss or use manual orders; don't treat 62.5k / 1.847k as a solid bottom. $BTC What is truly worth watching is not that $ETH is still holding 1,860, but that WG has moved the midline receiving area down by nearly $200.
WG believes the 1,860–1,840 support is temporarily effective but may be breached in the coming days; If it pulls back to 1,746, just observe first; the real spot swing plan starts at 1,680. This approach is not to be bearish to the end, but to avoid false runs above support.
Execution is also more conservative: WG's $BEAT long positions have reached breakeven levels, Mia's $PROM long positions have taken profits in the first segment; Another trader closed $HYPE short positions early due to weekend liquidity. Overall judgment: Right now is more suitable for protecting profits. Only when $ETH enters the planning zone and confirms a stop-decline is it worth upgrading short-term positions to swing trading.
$GIGGLE Weekend scalping plan lacks complete failure conditions and will not list opportunities for this round. Will you pick up batches at 1,680, or will you keep waiting?
These are for the purposes of opinion and information compilation only and do not constitute investment adviceMany attributed the recent inscription price increase to #6 inscription trading for 3 BTC. This trade was merely a trigger for emotion, awakening market memories and triggering short-term capital inflows.
The market kickoff was driven by multiple factors: after the halving, miners increased revenue from fees, the Runes ecosystem revived, and the market was early betting on the Nakamoto upgrade. Amid the volatility, funds favored the highly elastic Bitcoin inscription track.
Behind the hype, the sword of Damocles has always hung high. The inscription track is highly volatile, with the vast majority of stocks having long been at zero. Short-term narratives can quickly push prices up, but whether the market can sustain depends on whether the underlying narrative can be realized.$ETH 1. On-chain Trend Review 0x2684 whale addresses continue to build up their Ethereum holdings. Since June 30, they have accumulated funds in batches, cumulatively purchasing 74,265 ETH, with an overall average price of $1,771; At the same time, it is allocated to WBTC long-term positions. This is an institutional-style dollar-cost averaging that spans multiple months, indicating that medium- to long-term funds maintain their willingness to allocate to ETH. 2. Two core macroeconomic variables continue to put pressure (1) Geopolitical tensions between the US and Iran continue to escalate, with market concerns that hitting Iran's energy infrastructure will drive inflation and suppress expectations of Fed rate cuts; (2) The market continues to closely monitor the progress of the Clarity Act. If the bill is successfully implemented, ETH is expected to officially establish its digital commodity identity, removing the biggest obstacle for institutional staking ETFs; If the stall is stalled before the recess, regulatory uncertainty will continue to weigh on the market. 3. Current Market Liquidity Status Traditional markets were closed over the weekend, liquidity on the exchange continued to shrink, BTC's sideways range narrowed, and ETH followed Bitcoin into a range-bound tug-of-war. 24-hour trading volume has declined compared to the average, indicating a short-term lack of one-sided incremental funds. The market repeatedly inserts needles, with frequent two-way shakeouts between long and short. Key Evening Levels Reference (Current Price Around 1864) Short-term ✅ Support: 1850 → Core Defensive Support at 1820 ✅ Short-term Resistance: 1890 → Strong Resistance at 1910 Market Logic Analysis ETH is currently in a dilemma: medium- to long-term whales continue to accumulate coins, and expectations of the Clarity Act provide a bottom; In the short term, it is difficult to break out of an independent rally due to insufficient liquidity and concerns over geoinflationIn 41 minutes, 1,196 addresses and 1,082.65 BTC.
These are the three most striking sets of numbers currently in the Coldcard security incident.
Based on the $BTC price at 18:25, the stolen assets are worth about $68.3 million, with an average loss of 0.91 BTC per address, or about $57,000.
The news was shocking enough, but the market reaction was very restrained.
$BTC Still at about $63,042, up 0.51%; $ETH was quoted at around $1,865, up 0.09%. Nearly $70 million in theft incidents did not trigger simultaneous panic among mainstream coins.
The market framed the risk in the seed generation stage of Coldcard. The issue dates back to some firmware in 2021: the randomness of mnemonic phrases generated was flawed, allowing attackers to offline candidate private keys without any physical contact.
The BTC network's consensus, issuance, and transfer mechanisms are still functioning normally, so the price is not priced according to the "Bitcoin protocol has been breached."
But the impact on trust in self-custody is very real. Firmware updates can fix the subsequent generation process, but previously generated old mnemonic phrases will not automatically become safer.
The BTC cap of 21 million remains unchanged; what changes is the trust cost of the phrase "offline is secure."
A wallet can be offline for five years, but the risk may already be written into the mnemonic phrase the moment it is born.
#Coldcard漏洞发酵, over a thousand BTC were stolen Foreign capital has resumed large-scale buying in the Korean stock market, while retail investors have concentrated their selling
The capital structure of the Korean stock market showed a very clear reversal at the end of July.
For most of this year, foreign investors have continued to reduce their holdings in Korean stocks, while Korean retail investors have been increasing their holdings, with funds mainly concentrated in Samsung Electronics, SK Hynix, and related leveraged ETFs. The lower the stock price, the more retail investors buy, and almost all the chips sold by foreign investors are taken by local individual investors through increased leverage.
However, in the latest trading day, foreign investors net bought nearly 6 trillion won in Korean stocks in a single day, while individual investors net sold nearly 10 trillion won, marking the most extreme chip swap of the year.
This indicates that Korean retail investors, who had been bottom-fishing earlier, have started to reduce their positions on the rebound.
Some of these may be stranded funds exiting after returning to the cost line, some are margin accounts actively reducing leverage, and others may come from leveraged ETF redemptions. After consecutive declines, margin calls, and forced liquidations, the cash South Korean retail investors can continue to put into the market has significantly decreased, and their risk appetite has begun to decline.
Foreign investors bought back Korean stocks while retail investors concentrated in selling. After significant adjustments in the previous phase, the valuations, position crowding, and leverage risk of Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix have all decreased, and global capital has begun to reassess the allocation value of Korean semiconductors.
Previously, the trading structure involved foreign capital withdrawing and retail investors taking in with leverage. Now, it is gradually becoming retail investors deleveraging, while foreign capital is buying at low levels.
The single-day flow of funds is not enough to confirm that the Korean stock market has completed its reversal, but chips are shifting from highly leveraged retail investors back into the hands of global institutions. For a market that has already experienced deep drawdown, this is likely a mutual test between buyers and sellers.Weekend Ghost Story: AI completes the attack chain on its own
Just today, a piece of news once again shook the entire AI industry.
While investigating the Hugging Face hack, OpenAI discovered more records of AI agents escaping quarantine environments.
But first, to correct a misconception: the Hugging Face attack did not happen today. By mid-July, OpenAI had already admitted that GPT-5.6, Sol, and a stronger internal model had broken through the sandbox to gain internet access during cybersecurity testing, steal credentials, and enter Hugging Face's real production system, taking test answers.
The real new update today is: after OpenAI reviewed its history, it discovered other sandbox escape incidents, but currently there is no evidence that these new incidents left OpenAI's internal network.
The scariest part of this isn't that AI suddenly shows malice—it hasn't awakened, nor is there any evidence that it wants to wipe out humanity. It just received a goal—to solve the cybersecurity problem, and then realized that doing it honestly was too hard, and stealing answers was faster. So it searches for sandbox vulnerabilities, steals accounts online, sets up relay nodes, and eventually infiltrates real databases.
This is the classic problem in AI safety: the model achieves the goals you wrote down but betrays the results you truly want.
First layer of impact: AI attacks have evolved from assisting hackers to autonomously completing attack chains. Hugging Face recorded over 17,000 automated actions, and the UK's AI safety agency previously found that AI can now perform complex attack tasks that previously required human experts over ten or even twenty hours.
Second layer of impact: This is not an accident for OpenAI alone. After reviewing over 140,000 tests, Anthropic also discovered that Claude had once accessed the real internet and had unauthorized attacks on the production systems of three companies. This shows that model capabilities have advanced too quickly, while the lab's sandbox, permissions, and monitoring have not been upgraded in sync.
The third layer of impact: This is what the capital market cares about most. The most likely thing to see on Monday is not a collapse of the entire semiconductor industry, but structural differentiation. Cybersecurity, identity authentication, zero trust, cloud security, and AI monitoring may become the most direct beneficiaries; AI agents and application software bear higher risk premiums because enterprises will no longer allow an agent to run continuously for several days with full permissions without anyone knowing what it is doing.
As for NVIDIA, AMD, storage, and servers, they will be hit by short-term sentiment headlines like "training paused, AI slowdown," but there is currently no evidence that OpenAI has completely halted training, nor any evidence that cloud providers cancel computing power orders because of this. Even stricter security evaluations, red team tests, and real-time monitoring require more computing power.
So, what truly ends this matter is not the development of AI, but the era of wild AI development without brakes, black boxes, or accountability. In the past, people only asked if AI was smart enough, but in the future, they must ask: what permissions does it have? Who is monitoring it?
AI security won't kill the AI industry, but it will redistribute profits across the entire sector. The next round of most valuable people may not just be the one who makes the smartest models, but the ones who can lock the smartest models in a cage. $AMD $NVDA BTC and ETH spot ETFs this week's capital performance:
BTC saw a net outflow of $61.53 million this week, ending a three-week streak of net inflows.
ETH continues to be strong, with net inflows for the fourth consecutive week, but this week saw only $27.42 million, the lowest in nearly four weeks.
Interestingly, BTC funds have started to loosen, while ETH, although still attracting funds, has clearly slowed down incremental funding.
This is more like a cooling of funds after the market enters high-level volatility, rather than a panic retreat.
Institutions have not exited en masse, but their willingness to chase highs is declining. What really needs to be watched next is whether ETF funds are undergoing a short-term adjustment or are entering a phase of sustained outflow.
Capital direction often reflects changes in market sentiment earlier than price movements. $BTC $ETH Tonight, there are only a few signals in the crypto world

I'm Ci Ge. The 30-year US Treasury yield has soared to 5.27%, the highest since 2007. The ceiling of 2019 has been broken.
What is this candlestick talking about today?
The FOMC voted three votes to raise interest rates, domestic demand hit a two-year high in the second quarter, and oil prices rose about 20% in a single month—these three forces simultaneously pushed inflation expectations. Market pricing in the probability of a September rate hike has heated up. On the other hand, June PCE just recorded its first negative month-on-month turnaround since 2020, with inflation cooling and long-term highs occurring simultaneously. The bond market chose to trust oil prices and domestic demand rather than PCE.
When long-term rates break through the 19-year range, it means the market no longer believes the Federal Reserve can easily control inflation. The bond market believes that high interest rates need to be maintained longer, or even further increased. This is the valuation anchor of risk assets that is moving.
Impact on BTC
In the short term, the surge in long-term interest rates directly suppresses risk asset valuations. BTC, as a high-beta product, is under pressure in this macro environment. Rising U.S. Treasury yields mean the relative attractiveness of the dollar is increasing, and some funds will flow back from risk assets back into the bond market.
But in the medium term, the fact that the 30-year yield hitting a 19-year high is itself a signal. When the world's safest asset begins to offer risk-free returns above 5%, it means the cost of holding US dollar credit is rising. If oil prices remain elevated and domestic demand remains strong, the Fed may be forced to raise rates again in September. This is a short-term negative for BTC, but if rates continue to rise and start hurting economic growth, the logic of dollar credit depletion will ultimately strengthen demand for non-sovereign assets.
What to watch next
Whether 5.3% is the top or a new starting point will determine the valuation anchor for risk assets in August. If yields continue to rise, BTC may test the previous low area. If the price peaks and pulls back at this level, risk assets will enter a breathing window. The bond market has already sent a signal; now let's see how the stock market responds.
Ci Ge finished speaking. Think carefully. $BTC $ETH $SNDK 1.17 billion insurance policy hanging high: Bitcoin 60,000 put holdings surge—what disaster are major players preparing for?
$1.17 billion. This is the size of the open interest currently pending on a $60,000 Bitcoin put option expiring on August 28.
Having just gone through the monthly major delivery at the end of July, the market made a strong impact on the first day of August, with prices dropping all the way down to around $62,800, just one step away from the $60,000 threshold. Meanwhile, in Deribit's options open interest book, put options positions at $60,000 strike prices rapidly expanded at an extremely abnormal rate to $1.17 billion.
Many people in trading groups saw this data and immediately thought the bears had set a trap, preparing to smash Bitcoin's price through $60,000 in August.
But in the eyes of a seasoned derivatives trader, this money doesn't reveal the killing intent of sell-offs, but rather a cold sweat from defense.
This is actually a massive insurance policy hanging over the market.
Many super whales and institutions are cramming near $64,000, holding thousands of Bitcoin spot coins. Against the backdrop of high interest rates remaining unchanged and macro liquidity tightening, they are absolutely unwilling to sell bloody chips at the cost of the spot market. To prevent a systemic collapse in August that could damage the principal, their best strategy is to enter the options market and spend a small premium to buy $60,000 put options expiring at the end of August.
Thus, if Bitcoin's price really falls below $60,000, the windfall profits on the options side can perfectly offset the losses on the spot side.
This kind of premium protection tactic shows that major players are highly cautious about the tail risks in August, but it also shows they still choose to firmly hold onto their belief in spot trading.
However, for us retail investors, this insurance policy has an extremely fatal side effect.
As the price of Bitcoin spot keeps approaching the $60,000 barrier, market makers selling these put options to major players must simultaneously sell Bitcoin spot Bitcoin in order to hedge against the negative Delta risk they hold.
This is called Gamma negative squeeze in derivatives.
Simply put, when the spot price drops to around $61,000, this $1.17 billion insurance policy becomes a massive gravitational black hole. Market makers were forced to follow suit and dump spot shares, causing extremely violent nonlinear pedaling near $60,000.
When I used to only trade spot trading, I often didn't understand why some round-numbered thresholds would crash by thousands of dollars within minutes like a flash flood once broken. Later, after losing money in the options market, I realized: it was all market makers passively dumping spot assets to hedge option insurance policies.
So, after reading Deribit's position movement last night, I quietly stuck my Bitcoin spot firm defense line precisely at $60,000.
In the coming weeks, I won't blindly guess where the bottom will be. I will only focus intently on the $1.17 billion (60,000 Put) unclosed interest expiring on August 28. Before institutional premiums mature or market makers unlock their hedging positions, any bottoming above $60,000 could trigger passive sell-offs by market makers at midnight. Stop your hands and carefully check the bank's insurance card before acting.

What we often call "buying expectations and selling facts" is exactly like this
#财报观察员: Amazon's guidance falls short of expectations, yet stock price rises 9%The chip structure is reproducing the pattern seen before the FTX collapse, with Jiang Zhuoer warning that BTC may be about to complete the last drop of the bear market.
Many are still betting on a rebound, but the latest UTXO chip data already reveals strong risk signals. Coupled with the uncertainty of the US crypto legislation, the downside risk cannot be ignored.
Crypto analyst Murphy's updated URPD data is very alarming: 890,000 BTC are accumulated at the $63,000 price level, and 710,000 BTC at the $62,000 level. These two dense chip zones together account for nearly 8% of the circulating supply. Such a concentration of holdings at a single price point is very rare in the past two years of market activity. This highly clustered chip structure closely resembles the market characteristics before the 2022 FTX crash.
Chip clustering means price sensitivity will increase significantly. Once the market turns, the concentrated holdings will create concentrated selling pressure, triggering a rapid and intense market reshuffle—commonly referred to in the industry as violent chip redistribution. This is often a key turning point at the end of a bear market.
Leibit mining pool's Jiang Zhuoer also gave a clear bearish view, linking the chip structure analysis with the Clarity Act. If no consensus is reached in negotiations this week and the bill cannot be passed before Congress recesses, regulatory negative news will directly trigger the market, and Bitcoin is very likely to experience the last deep dip of the bear market.
On one hand, there is historically significant concentrated chip short momentum; on the other, there is a major regulatory negative variable with the bill. The double negative resonance severely amplifies the risk of heavy long positions at this stage.
Do you think the bill negotiations can pass smoothly and avoid this expected deep correction? #白宫回应将决定CLARITY法案下周能否投票 #30YYieldAt19YHigh #AMZNMissesButRallies #MSFT450BInADay Bitcoin has pulled back around 3.5% since the latest FOMC decision, and the reaction isn't out of the ordinary.
Historically, BTC has often seen 3–6% declines in the days following Fed meetings as traders reduce risk and digest the central bank's outlook. This time, the Fed kept rates unchanged but maintained a cautious, hawkish tone, while stronger bond yields and weaker market sentiment have added pressure on crypto.
As long as $63K remains under pressure, the next key support sits around $61K–62K. A decisive break below that zone could trigger another liquidity sweep before buyers step back in.
The next major catalysts are upcoming U.S. economic data and institutional ETF flows, which could determine whether Bitcoin finds support or extends its correction.

#TetherQ2ProfitGold #BOJIntervenesJuly30 #SoftPCEStrongDemand HYPERSCALE DATA RESTRUCTURING TREASURY DIVERSIFIES 100 BITCOIN FOR MICHIGAN AI INFRASTRUCTURE 🖥️
Hyperscale Data officially executed a treasury allocation transferring approximately 100 BTC to fund capital expenditures for its enterprise artificial intelligence data center project in Michigan. Following this transaction, the firm's total Bitcoin treasury reserves stand at 1,006 BTC. Concurrently, the corporation established a Bitcoin-collateralized credit facility carrying interest rates between 4.5% and 5.0% per annum.
Establishing a digital asset-collateralized credit line allows Hyperscale Data to secure necessary expansion capital for its AI infrastructure without incurring equity dilution for existing shareholders. Corporate executive leadership emphasized that this capital reallocation represents an operational optimization of the balance sheet rather than a reduction in long-term conviction regarding Bitcoin's value proposition.
Hyperscale Data's strategic shift illustrates an evolving dynamic within corporate digital asset treasuries (DAT), where firms prioritize operational productivity alongside reserve holdings. Deep liquidity across major exchanges continues to provide a secure environment for absorbing corporate capital deployments. Integrating digital assets with core computing infrastructure establishes a balanced model for institutional growth.
In your opinion, will corporate treasuries transferring partial Bitcoin reserves to fund AI infrastructure become a standard strategy for digital asset-holding companies?
Please do your own research carefully before making any transactions (DYOR). $BTC 熱門來自社群還是新聞？檢查 BTC、ETH、SOL 提及量的來源集中度
熱門榜上的總提及量看似直觀，真正決定訊號質地的卻是來源。OKX Onchain OS 於 08 月 01 日 16:00（中國時間） 更新的一小時快照中，BTC 共 32 次提及，X 佔 31 次、新聞 1 次；ETH 共 21 次，X 12 次、新聞 9 次；SOL 共 18 次，X 18 次、新聞 0 次。三者都可被稱為熱門，來源結構卻不完全相同。
換算後，X 約佔 BTC 一小時提及量的 97%、ETH 的 57%、SOL 的 100%。這些比例不是好壞評分，而是提示訊息主要在哪裡傳播。X 的反應速度通常更快，能捕捉即時注意力；新聞來源更新較慢，卻較容易回到具體事件。當來源高度集中於 X，合理做法是提高時效敏感度，而不是降低查證標準。
來源集中還會影響情緒比例。BTC 當前偏多 28%、偏空 25%；ETH 偏多 14%、偏空 48%；SOL 偏多 28%、偏空 11%。如果大量文本源自同一段敘事的轉發，分類比例可能很整齊，但獨立資訊量未必同樣高，不能把一致語氣直接當成廣泛共識。
新聞提及也不天然等於可靠。聚合排行只顯示來源類別和數量，不代表每篇新聞都已由項目方或監管機構確認。要寫成事實，仍應進一步打開協議公告、基金會頁面、交易平台通知或監管文件。若只有二手報道，最安全的表述是「市場正在討論」，而不是替事件補上尚未公布的原因、時間或財務影響。
判斷一個熱點是否健康擴散，可以觀察來源是否由單點變為多點。若下一個快照中 X 提及延續，新聞來源也增加，而且不同原始公告能互相核對，題材的資訊基礎會比純轉發更扎實。若總量增加但新聞仍接近零，或所有內容都圍繞同一個未證實說法，應把它列為高噪音熱點。
二十四小時資料提供另一個檢查面。BTC 長窗 X 與新聞提及分別為 1253 和 181，ETH 為 603 和 97，SOL 為 451 和 23。短窗來源比例若大幅偏離長窗，可能代表新的傳播渠道正在主導，也可能只是新聞更新尚未追上，兩種情況需要下一輪才能分辨。
對發佈流程而言，來源結構還決定文章壽命。高度依賴社群的短窗稿應快速過期，因為幾個小時後提及量與語氣可能完全改變；由正式公告支撐的內容可以有較長驗證週期，但仍要依事件階段更新。本篇屬於即時排行解讀，因此只保留五個半小時，且新快照會讓舊未發稿立刻失效。
本輪能確認的不是 BTC、ETH 或 SOL 哪個更值得追價，而是哪個標的的注意力更集中於快速社群渠道。把 X、新聞、情緒比例和時間窗口分開呈現，可以避免把熱度寫成基本面，也避免把幾十次提及包裝成資金共識。後續只有來源多樣性與其他市場資料同步改善時，才值得提高判斷信心。韩国加密市场正在经历一场“冰火两重天”的格局重塑。 据NexBlock报道，今年上半年韩国五大韩元交易所累计交易额约3665.8亿美元，同比下降54.6%。7月1日至27日期间，五大交易所累计交易量约17.34万亿韩元，较上月同期再降16.9%。 📊 头部差距在扩大 Upbit：交易量约11.69万亿韩元，环比下降10%，但市场份额从62.3%升至67.4% Bithumb：交易量降至4.71万亿韩元，份额由30.7%降至27.1% 两者差距：扩大至40.3个百分点 市场低迷期间，资金进一步向流动性领先的平台集中——Upbit正在吃掉Bithumb流失的份额。 🔍 为什么交易量在萎缩？ 市场分析认为，比特币和山寨币波动率下降是主要原因。今年上半年，比特币平均日波动率仅1.25%，山寨币指数波动率1.79%，均低于韩国股市KOSPI指数的4.67%。低波动率环境下，投资者交易意愿下降，单纯依靠交易手续费收入的交易所面临更大压力。 中下游交易所（Coinone、Korbit、Gopax）合计份额仅约5.5%，正在寻求与传统金融机构结合，通过证券公司合作、机构市场布局以及经营重组寻找突破My view: I believe the 30-year Treasury yield near 5.3% is not necessarily the top; it is more likely to be forming a new high interest rate range.
The reason is simple: the market is not trading current PCE, but future inflation expectations.
In June, PCE turned negative month-on-month, but the 30-year U.S. Treasury yield still surged to 5.27%, the highest since 2007. The core contradiction behind this is: oil prices rose about 20% in a single month, domestic demand remained resilient in Q2, and there were even calls within the Federal Reserve to continue raising interest rates. The bond market is clearly more concerned about future inflation fluctuations.
My judgment is based on:
PCE is data that has already occurred, while long-term U.S. Treasury yields reflect market pricing for the next 5-10 years. If capital truly believes inflation is over, long-term rates will not continue to break highs.
For crypto assets, this means increased valuation pressure. In the past, when holding risk assets like BTC and ETH, I paid more attention to changes in liquidity; But when the 30-year Treasury yield rises above 5% and risk-free yield improves, market funds will reassess the risk-reward ratio.
The most common mistake in trading markets is to look only at the published data and ignore what the capital is betting on.
My strategy:
If the long-term yield continues to break above 5.3%, I will reduce my high-volatility altcoin position, increase my cash ratio, and wait for liquidity to improve again.
What truly affects the crypto market is not just whether interest rates are cut, but who is repricing the future.Today's market is like a couple who just finished a cold war—neither wants to speak first. Bitcoin closed around 62,900, down more than three points in a day. Ethereum also dropped back to around 1,860, a similar decline. The global market cap shrank to around 225 billion. The key point is that this drop didn't increase trading volume—it's a shrinking volume and a quiet drop, not panic sell-offs. To put it bluntly, it's not a breakup—both sides are waiting for a way out. Whoever backs down first is embarrassed. What's really interesting isn't the price, but the little tricks on the chain—whale addresses holding 1,000 to 10,000 Ethereum From the June low, it quietly climbed upward. The thirty-day change has remained positive. This isn't a one-day trip; some people are seriously moving boxes at low levels. But retail investors, seeing the green market, their hands tremble, and the more afraid they are, the less willing they are to enter. You see, this is the classic divergence between smart money and retail investor sentiment. The whale is secretly moving things into the house, while retail investors are still standing at the door, hesitating about whether to enter. Inside, the move is lively, and the door is hesitant until their feet go numb. But don't rush to call for a bottom. Active Ethereum addresses are still at low levels, many buy but few use. Chips are being rotated, and the ecosystem heat hasn't caught up yet It's like someone moving furniture to your house every day, but no one has moved in yet. The venue is built, but you have to wait a bit longer. What to watch tomorrow? Eyes on next week's US nonfarm payroll. The market expects 91,000 new moves. Once the data increases, volatility increases. The US dollar index is still hovering around 999. The calm before data comes out often means taking a deep breath—not just a bad thing. In trading, it's just one thing: keep your bullets and don't fire recklessly. Light positions wait for stabilization signals before moving up; heavy positions don't add yet—they can sleepThis whale post is not just about "buying ETH again"
On the surface, addresses 0x2684 bought 7,919.5 ETH today, amounting to about $14.89 million. But when you look at the on-chain paths, it looks more like building a whole set of positions:
First, about 7,920 ETH were withdrawn from Binance, then converted to about 6,384 wstETH via Lido, and finally deposited into Spark as collateral; During this period, 50 WBTCs worth about $3.15 million were transferred to Spark. At the same time, about 9.848 million USDS were allocated on-chain, suggesting that this operation was not just spot hoarding but also involved lending or liquidity management.
Since June 30, this address has cumulatively purchased 74,265 ETH, totaling about $131.5 million, with an average cost of $1,771; Additionally, 1,050 WBTC were purchased, totaling about $67.49 million, with an average cost of $64,277. The cumulative purchase scale of these two asset classes approached $199 million.
More notably, the average ETH purchase price this time was about $1,880, approximately 6.2% higher than the overall average cost. In other words, this is not the cost of amortization after the price drops, but rather continued to add positions above the cost line. This increase in holdings amounts to about 10.7% of its cumulative ETH purchases.
This move is a positive short-term signal for ETH: after the token is introduced from the exchange, it enters staking and lending protocols, reducing the circulating tokens that can be dumped into the market at any time, while also increasing wstETH's collateral demand in DeFi.
But whale buying does not mean the market has bottomed out. Once assets are used as collateral, capital efficiency improves, and they also become more dependent on the price stability of ETH and BTC. If the market falls rapidly again and collateralization deteriorates, the original "long-term allocation" could become passive deleveraging.
So I think what really makes this deal worth watching isn't whether the whales guessed the bottom, but that nearly $200 million in BTC and ETH positions are shifting from mere token holding to on-chain yield and capital circulation. Large funds are no longer satisfied with just "buying and putting it in the wallet"; their tactics have clearly started to change.
$ETH #以太坊主网十一周年: Eleven years of uninterrupted operation and ecological achievements This earnings season is actually the two companies to watch most: Google and Tesla. Putting everything else aside, just looking at their "real answers," the difference from the numbers on the surface is huge.
On Google's side, its search base hasn't collapsed. After Gemini was added, advertiser feedback has been more stable than expected, but what the market really keeps holding on is its ever-increasing AI capital expenditure—whether it's profits or burning, it's really burning. Cloud and Azure are neck and neck, and this quarter's growth rate only needs a brief breath to scrutinize valuations.
Tesla is the real highlight. Year-on-year deliveries are still slipping down, car prices keep dropping, and gross margins are being weighed down. Now, the market doesn't even see it as a car company, focusing all its attention on the stories of Robotaxi and energy storage. Musk himself was distracted by the xAI scene, and shareholders had been grappling about it countless times.
Speaking of Musk, here's a quick post about the SPCX on OKX (the Musk-related one). I was on 108.9 and still holding onto 109 to grind 😅. Tesla's earnings report has shaken SPCX too. If the dog farm doesn't move, I can't do it—I just have to endure. If Tesla's "answer sheet" can't hold steady, I'm afraid I'll have to keep dragging things out with them for a while.
What do you think of the true quality of these two? I think the numbers are just for show; the key is whether Google dares to take AI strings and whether Tesla can wrap up the story. #财报观察员: Who can truly understand the real answer sheet from Google and Tesla this time? #财报观察员: Amazon's guidance falls short of expectations, yet stock price rises 9% #30年期美债收益率创19年新高 In July 2026, the yield on the US 30-year Treasury note surged above 5.23%, the highest level since 2007 (2019). This creates strong systemic pressure on the cryptocurrency market, with the main mechanisms as follows:
📉 Core logic: Risk-free rate reset puts pressure on crypto asset valuations
When the "risk-free" Treasury yield exceeds 5%, the pricing logic of the entire financial market is reset:
· Opportunity Cost Soars: The opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets like Bitcoin has risen sharply. Investors are more motivated to move their funds into safe and high-yield U.S. Treasuries.
· Valuation model reconstruction: Higher risk-free rates increase the discount rate for risk assets, directly compressing the valuation multiples for high-risk assets like Bitcoin.
💸 Direct market reaction: capital flight and price drops
The market has responded quickly:
· Price drop: Bitcoin fell below $64,000, and traditional safe-haven assets like gold also plunged.
· Capital flight: Bitcoin spot ETFs have seen continuous capital outflows, leading to severe liquidations (for example, over 80,000 liquidations in a single day, totaling $275 million).
· Traditional institutions warn: Bank of America and others have issued warnings stating that the bond market has become the most dangerous variable for risk assets such as AI and crypto.
📊 Macroeconomic Background: Not isolated events, but multiple overlapping risks
This surge in yields is the result of multiple overlapping risks, not a single factor:
· Fluctuating inflation: Middle East tensions have pushed up oil prices, and market confidence in the Federal Reserve's inflation control has declined.
· Fiscal concerns: Markets are beginning to reprice long-term U.S. fiscal and debt sustainability risks.
· Supply-demand imbalance: The U.S. government continues to issue large amounts of bonds, but weakening demand from overseas buyers has pushed up term premiums.
· Policy Divergence: Internal divisions within the Federal Reserve have intensified, with the probability of a rate hike in September once rising to 65.2%.
· Hedging failure: The traditional "stock-bond seesaw" effect disappeared, stocks and bonds fell simultaneously, and Bitcoin, as a risk asset, lost its last hedge protection.
⚠️ Historical perspective: an unprecedented macro test
A notable historical perspective is that since its inception, Bitcoin has never fully experienced a bull-bear cycle in an environment where long-term interest rates consistently remain above 5%. This means the current market environment presents an unprecedented macro test for crypto assets.
💎 Summary and Outlook
The 30-year U.S. Treasury yield hit a 19-year high, and by raising risk-free rates, suppressing risk appetite, and extracting market liquidity, it has exerted significant downward pressure on the cryptocurrency market.
As market analysis points out, the market will enter a phase of strong volatility. The stable recovery of risk assets may require waiting for sustained declines in yields. $BTC $SKHYNIX Amazon's Q3 guidance fell short of expectations, capital expenditure was raised, and free cash flow turned negative, yet the stock price still surged over 9% after hours. Behind this seemingly unusual phenomenon lies the market's interpretation of long-term signals in earnings reports that are more important than short-term guidance.
📊 Core data of the financial report: The intertwining of good and bad
· Q2 results exceeded expectations across the board: revenue of $200.6 billion (expected $196.47 billion); net profit of $62.6 billion (YoY +245%); Earnings per share were $5.75 (expected $1.82).
· AWS delivered an impressive performance: revenue of $42.2 billion (+37% year-on-year, fastest growth in Q18); Operating profit was $16.6 billion (+64% year-on-year), with a margin as high as 39.4%.
· Concerns are also obvious: Q3 revenue guidance median $199.5 billion (below the expected $203.9 billion); Full-year capital expenditure raised to $220 billion; Free cash flow turned negative over the past 12 months, with a net outflow of $7.6 billion.
🧠 Why is the market "selectively blind"? — Three core logics
1. AWS's "certainty" is overwhelming
AWS contributes over 60% of operating profits. This quarter, not only did it achieve record growth, but its profit margin also improved against the trend amid high depreciation costs. More importantly, the backlog has reached $496 billion—revenue for nearly three years has been locked in ahead of schedule, convincing the market that AWS's high growth is highly certain.
2. The rewards of the AI "arms race" are finally visible
The market's biggest concern was that huge AI investments would not bring returns. But Amazon responded to the doubts with data:
· Demand far exceeds supply: CEO Jassi bluntly stated that even with 220 billion spending, production capacity in 2026 and 2027 will still not meet demand.
· The payoff model is clear: servers and network equipment can break even in less than 3 years, and data centers can last over 30 years to support five to six generations of servers.
· Self-developed chip cost reduction: Trainium chips now offer about 30%-40% better cost performance than similar GPUs, saving tens of billions of dollars in capital expenditure annually.
· Rapid monetization at the application layer: Bedrock's model hosting platform has seen its single-quarter customer spending exceed the total of all previous quarters combined.
3. The contrast effect amplifies optimism
Previously, Google's stock price fell after also raising capital expenditures, but Amazon rose. The contrast stems from the fact that AWS is much larger than Google Cloud (with cumulative AWS revenue close to 80 billion so far this year, Google Cloud only 45 billion), and has achieved faster growth on a larger base, highlighting its scarcity.
$BTC $ETH $SNDK #财报观察员: Amazon's guidance falls short of expectations, yet stock price rises 9% Fundamental Research Report $STX / Stacks (BTC L2) $0.14 (24h +0.29%)
2026-08-01 17:45 Public Data Snapshot
One-sentence conclusion: Stacks ($STX) has an overall score of 31/100, with ratings mainly relying on narrative. Looking at the three layers, the company team is tightly resourced, the protocol network has weak usage evidence, and token value transfer still needs to be observed.
Stacks (token $STX), BTC L2 track. Focusing on the Bitcoin smart contract layer. Compared to BB, SAVM, and MERL. Traditional collaboration between enterprises relies on cloud servers and contract reconciliation, which causes gas surges, TPS constraints, and frequent cross-chain bridge security incidents during high concurrency. Public chains use a unified state machine for trustless settlement, reducing reconciliation costs. Average order value is $50-500/month, with settlement required in USDC or fiat currency. Narrative-driven tracks, bear market usage cut by 60-80%. Positioning the end-to-end vertical platform. Product implementation: The main evidence comes from announcements, but there is currently no verifiable use. Latest version not found, 0 valid submissions in the past 90 days.
At the user level, address MAU not disclosed, DAU not disclosed, 24h transaction volume $4.21M, TVL $75.07M. Wallet addresses do not equal monthly active users of natural persons; large large addresses holding concentrated positions tend to overestimate the actual number of users. On the revenue side, user fees are not disclosed. Supply-side revenue is about 80-90% of user fees (to LPs and nodes), protocol treasury revenue is undisclosed, and token holders' buyback and burn annualized rate have no burn mechanism. 24-hour transaction volume is business turnover, not revenue. A company making money does not mean the protocol makes money, and protocol profits do not equal token holders making money. On the code side, 90 valid submissions in 90 days, active contributors not found, latest version not found. GitHub is a Class A evidence that can be directly verified. Investment background: For company equity financing, look to PitchBook/Crunchbase (A-level); for token private and public funding, use whitepapers, release curves, and on-chain unlocked contracts (A-level); market makers and ecosystem funding are B-level and do not represent long-term holdings of tech VCs; for technical integration, look to API/SDK access evidence (B-level); strategic partnerships and logo walls are D-level. The use of NVIDIA GPUs does not equate to NVIDIA investment, and going public on exchanges does not equal strategic investment.
On the token side, total supply is 1,855,042,716.187809, circulating 1,855,042,716.187809 (100.0%), FDV is $255.02M, next unlock undisclosed (share of circulating undisclosed), burn buyback annualized rate: no clear buyback burn. Do you have to buy coins to use the product? Yes, strong value capture (Gas/Collateral/Service Access). Let's look together with peers (unified criteria, no cross-sector random comparisons): In terms of circulating market capitalization, Stacks $255.02M, BB undisclosed, SAVM undisclosed, MERL undisclosed. In terms of FDV, Stacks $255.02M, BB undisclosed, SAVM undisclosed, MERL undisclosed. Regarding annualized revenue, Stacks has not disclosed, BB has not disclosed, SAVM has not been disclosed, and MERL has not been disclosed. Regarding monthly active addresses or users, Stacks has not disclosed, BB has not disclosed, SAVM has not been disclosed, and MERL has not been disclosed. Figures are based on public data snapshots; any omissions are supplemented by official self-reports or industry standards. Valuation, market capitalization $255.02M, FDV $255.02M, P/S N/A (revenue missing, valuation anchor invalid), FDV divided by revenue N/A. Pessimistic outlook: $255.02M at 50-70% off, oscillating within a neutral range; optimistic outlook: revenue doubles, burns land, enterprise clients are coming in, FDV corresponds to P/S, aligns with the leading stock. Final judgment: Insufficient evidence, narrative-driven (Score 31/100). The token value transmission path is unclear, with only governance incentives. Circulating market capitalization is reasonable or low relative to fundamentals, FDV is close to MC, no major unlock, and selling pressure is manageable. Three major risks: short-term massive unlocking and sell-off, long-term protocol revenue wiping out, token demand relying solely on incentives (once incentives are cut off, usage collapses). Follow-up tracking: protocol fee weekly, burn amount, active address retention, TVL/loan balance, GitHub version release. The above is the logic and judgment of the publicly available information and does not constitute buying or selling advice. Core financial indicators deviate by more than 30%, and the conclusion needs to be reassessed.
