Account Position Divergence Radar
The number of accounts indicates the side taken, while the position ratio indicates the weight; only when these two are inconsistent is it worth monitoring.
$DOGE account numbers consistently lean long, but the top holders' position ratio remains below 1, so the numerical advantage has not translated into a top position advantage. Price and open interest (OI) both increased over 15 minutes, indicating that market heat is spreading to position expansion. From now on, stop counting accounts and directly monitor whether the top position weight is recovering toward the long side.
$SUI overall accounts, top accounts, and top positions are not aligned, currently resembling a divergence market. The rise is not accompanied by position liquidation; new positions have already participated, but continuation depends on subsequent price response. Divergence markets tend to be volatile; wait for alignment between top positions and price response before making a judgment.
$PEOPLE both overall and top accounts lean long, but the top position size remains on the short side, representing a clear account/position divergence. When price rises, OI increases simultaneously, indicating this is not a simple deleveraging; position attribution still requires transaction verification. The top position ratio must recover toward 1 to indicate that position weight is starting to follow account sentiment. $DOGE surged to 0.09121. I checked large on-chain addresses and net flows on exchanges; old addresses haven't added positions, while deposits show an uptick. The narrative relies on X hype and contract leverage at the top, but the underlying accumulation hasn't been confirmed.
After confirmation, 50x short. Currently at 0.08675, with an unrealized profit of 244.49%. Cost loss locked; remaining positions target 0.084/0.082. If it can't reclaim 0.089, don't add longs. For those who missed out, don't chase whales moving to exchanges. $BTC $ETH Yesterday we discussed why a 6000U account needs to first establish a risk budget. Once the initial order budget is set, many people naturally come up with the idea: since the initial order for a single coin can't be too large, why not open positions in several coins to spread out the funds? This way, each coin's allocation seems small, so overall, isn't it safer? The answer is that you can't judge safety just by the number of coins. Opening more coins may reduce the position size per coin and broaden opportunity distribution; however, if these coins are influenced by similar market factors and fluctuate or trigger default rebalancing at similar times, the account's risk may still concentrate. Increasing the number only changes the allocation method; it does not automatically eliminate risk. 1. Increasing the number of coins changes local allocation proportions Suppose the account plans to operate multiple coins. The most direct change is that the initial order budget per coin may shrink, and the proportion of each coin in the account may decrease. This helps control concentration risk per coin but only addresses a local issue: whether risk is concentrated in a single coin. It does not answer what overall risk paths the account will bear. Each coin has its own default rebalancing path, and multiple coins may simultaneously hold long and short positions. As long as these paths unfold simultaneously in the same market movement, the account's total margin usage and available balance will change together. Therefore, "each coin's initial order is small" only indicates local entry points are dispersed; it does not directly imply "the account's overall risk is small." 2. Superficial diversification and effective diversification are not the same True diversification is not just aboutBrothers, it's really been a long time since I've seen the account rise so smoothly. Opening my eyes to a sea of green, $ETH is really performing well this wave, feels great 😁.
Last night during the review, I felt that both BTC and ETH were a bit shaky. BTC has been hovering around 80k, unable to hold steady, which is not a good sign. It's even more obvious with ETH; the double top pattern is clear, the breakout failed, so there's basically no chance of going up in the short term. So before going to sleep, I thought there was a high probability of a pullback. This morning when I woke up, I saw the orders finally starting to feed, it's my turn to take a bite.
The biggest improvement this time is that I finally stopped worrying about whether to hold the position and started thinking about when to take profit. This wave of BTC is indeed strong; the psychological barrier of 80,000 dollars hasn't been broken, and the support in the market is very strong.
Honestly, what concerns me most about this BTC rally isn't how much it has risen from the 60k range, but that after breaking through the major resistance at 80k, it wasn't immediately pushed back down. A weekly increase of over 20% would normally trigger a deep correction, but there are buyers all along, so it doesn't fall deeply at all.
The capital flow is also solid. The US spot BTC ETF has had net inflows for several consecutive days, with $338 million flowing in on August 24 alone, and nearly $1.9 billion accumulated the previous week. So I've been watching the 80k level closely these days. When a key level is repeatedly tested but not broken, it often means accumulation.
#BTC突破80000美元，能否站稳新关口 btc and eth pullbacks are for the next wave of rise. Tonight are the PCE and Nvidia earnings reports. btc might surge once, then oscillate or pull back at a high level. The real pullback is likely to happen during Jackon's Hole annual meeting when Warsh speaks on Friday. Below is the specific event schedule:

2. 4 AM after US stock market close, Nvidia earnings release DYOR $SOL price, after reaching the psychological milestone of a hundred dollars (100 USD), faced a typical double squeeze of "fear of heights" sentiment and technical correction. As a highly volatile mainstream public chain token, the long-short battle for SOL is particularly fierce at key resistance levels.
Traders entered short positions at $98.58, precisely targeting the critical point where bullish momentum waned. Subsequently, the market showed a stair-step decline, with extremely weak buying support; every slight rebound failed to break the previous high, ultimately suppressing the price to $96.88.
Under the micro-physical rules of 100x leverage, a price difference of less than $2 was nonlinearly amplified into a 172.44% paper profit.

Whether intentional or not, the U.S. government has just validated the two strongest arguments for Bitcoin, and the market has responded accordingly.
There are multiple driving factors behind the current Bitcoin and cryptocurrency rally:
· Last week, the U.S. SEC announced the "Regulatory Framework for Crypto Assets," paving a compliant development path for emerging crypto projects;
· The White House convened a meeting with crypto industry executives, sending a positive signal to the sector;
· Stimulated by this, the market experienced a rapid short-term surge, catching shorts off guard and forcing them to cover their positions.
But the most important catalyst came from U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Beznos.
He was the one who ignited last week's rally and created conditions to push Bitcoin toward a new all-time high.
Step One: Long-Term Treasury Intervention
Beznos's first move was to announce plans to intervene in the long-term U.S. Treasury market.
Last Wednesday, Beznos publicly disclosed that the Treasury would double the size of its long-term bond purchases in regular repo operations, increasing from $2 billion to $4 billion. This announcement came as the 30-year Treasury yield hit its highest level since 2007.
On one hand, this move itself is limited in scale—the U.S. Treasury issues trillions of dollars in debt annually, and a few billion in repos is just a drop in the ocean.
But the real key is not the purchase size, but the signal it sends.
Although Beznos characterized it as a "liquidity adjustment measure," the market interpreted it as a deliberate effort to suppress long-term interest rates, a classic form of financial repression. And financial repression is exactly the environment Bitcoin thrives in.
When the government suppresses long-term rates, savers suffer: safe asset yields decline while inflation erodes purchasing power. This often drives capital toward scarce assets like gold and Bitcoin. Unsurprisingly, both rose in tandem after the news.
Step Two: Policy Escalation
Initially, Beznos's move had a brief effect:
· The 30-year Treasury yield briefly fell from 5.29% to 5.20%;
· The benchmark 10-year Treasury yield dropped from 4.70% to 4.65%.
But the rally did not last, and both yields quickly rebounded, approaching previous highs again. It proved that a $40 trillion debt load cannot be offset by $4 billion in repo operations.
Beznos did not stop there:
· He stated on CNBC that the repo size could exceed $4 billion;
· And when this still failed to calm the bond market, reports emerged that the Treasury might use nearly $1 trillion from its general account to conduct larger-scale bond repos.
In other words, within about 48 hours, the market's focus shifted from a $2 billion liquidity operation to the possibility of deploying $1 trillion to backstop long-term Treasuries.
This shook the entire investment community:
· Ray Dalio warned that a debt crisis is imminent and advised investors to allocate gold and Bitcoin;
· Stanley Druckenmiller wrote in The Wall Street Journal that this action constitutes "price control" and that "its severity far exceeds what $4 billion can reflect";
· Allianz Group's Chief Economic Advisor Mohamed El-Erian compared this policy attempt to Japan's painful yield curve control policy.
This discussion thrust the $40 trillion U.S. debt into the spotlight, with global economists debating currency devaluation risks. Undoubtedly, Bitcoin has greatly benefited from this market narrative.
Step Three: Weaponizing the Dollar Financial System
The situation did not end there.
On Monday, Beznos held a press conference to launch what he called an "economic blitz" targeting Iran's global financial connections.
He described it as a "financial Normandy landing," stating that this administration will push to sever Iran's ties to the global economy, sanctioning companies and countries doing business with Iran.
"Any entity assisting Iran in money laundering will be expelled from the dollar system; the countdown has begun."
He brought a long-implicit fact to the forefront: access to the dollar financial system is a tool of U.S. power. More importantly, he explicitly stated the U.S. is willing to wield this tool.
This recalls the U.S. decision to freeze Russian foreign reserves after the 2022 Ukraine crisis—an event that also laid the groundwork for subsequent sharp rises in gold and Bitcoin.
When countries weaponize payment systems, the market inevitably craves neutral alternatives.
Bitcoin is the only monetary asset that individuals can directly hold, is scarce, globally transferable, and not dependent on any single political entity's banking or custody system. (Gold is a high-quality store of value but is heavy, difficult to transport, and hard to divide, making it less practical for transactions.)
The more the global financial system becomes a tool of geopolitical games, the greater the value of a neutral financial network.
Extremely Strong Market Conditions
Within just one week, Beznos, leveraging the full policy power of the U.S. government (intentionally or not), validated Bitcoin's two core logics:
1. Implementing soft yield curve control to drive investors toward hard assets;
2. Reaffirming to the world the growing value of a neutral monetary settlement layer.
All this coincided with:
· Continued money printing by countries;
· Ongoing improvements in Bitcoin access channels;
· Leading global asset managers beginning to include Bitcoin in model portfolios.
This creates very favorable market allocation conditions.

#BTC突破80000美元，能否站稳新关口
#Strategy增发扩充现金，BTC配置节奏受关注 The combination of strong inflows into $BTC ETF funds (nearly 2 billion USD in one week) and the Greed & Fear Index soaring to a high level (reaching 74 - the highest since October 2025) is creating major shifts in the cryptocurrency market. These phenomena reflect the core factors at play: 1. The underlying cause behind the record-breaking Institutional Inflows surge: US Spot $BTC ETF funds recorded the strongest net inflow week in the past 10 months (nI plan to buy some $FIL
FIL, this coin, has increased its circulating supply (inflation) by 3,607,645 FIL within 10 days (an average daily increase of 360,000 FIL; among which the block reward is 85,235 FIL, and the current maximum circulating supply is 709,532,938). With such a high dilution rate, if this coin doesn't drop at this stage, it can be considered as rising.
I plan to buy some of this coin, betting on its potential after October 14, 2026. After that date, the daily dilution will become 60,000, which equals a 6-fold deflation. By then, the total circulating supply will also exceed 40%. If lucky, there might be ecological adoption, and there could be a little bit of room for imagination.#US expands sanctions on Iran, Strait navigation talks advance
On one hand, sanctions are intensified; on the other, Strait navigation talks have begun. The situation is tense but leaves room for easing, with no move toward a full blockade for now. Brent crude is currently priced at $88.58. After the news, risk premiums have fallen, causing a slight dip in oil prices.

Both bulls and bears are focusing on the narrow range between 78,000 and 79,000. The most noteworthy change right now comes from the rapid cooling of geopolitical risks. According to Russian media, the US and Iran are expected to resume dialogue, with both sides reaching a preliminary consensus on ceasefire terms, which may be officially announced in the coming days and push for the implementation of a permanent route within 30 to 60 days. After the news broke, crude oil prices fell nearly 2% to $80.47, significantly compressing the geopolitical premium, which is a mild tailwind for risk assets. 💡 US stocks collectively strengthened last night, with crypto-related stocks performing particularly well. Robinhood rose over 8%, and market sentiment clearly warmed. Meanwhile, Nvidia rose 2.19%, ending a seven-day losing streak. After the market is about to release earnings reports, funds are holding their breath as they wait. Meanwhile, South Korea's DRAM export prices surged 401% year-on-year, further solidifying the narrative of tight supply and demand for memory chips, providing additional support for tech stocks. On the macro level, the market is still awaiting Jackson Hole's central bank official's speech and core PCE data. The direction remains unchanged, but the pace is shifting. Returning to Bitcoin itself, the information revealed by the market structure is worth careful consideration. Above the 80,000 to 81,500 range, dense short liquidation pressure has accumulated.

If tonight's semi-annual report shows realization efficiency below expectations, the accumulated short positions will accelerate the downward pressure on the stock.

#黄金高位震荡，机构资金继续看涨 #Anthropic估算30万亿美元市场，IPO叙事能否兑现？A $30T-plus TAM may make for a striking IPO frame, but the more useful signal is the gap between theoretical demand and monetizable share. Anthropic's expected 2028 revenue of roughly $190B-$200B would represent only about 0.6% of that market, underscoring how expansive the premise is.
My read: investors should weigh durable enterprise retention, pricing power and model differentiation more heavily than the headline TAM. If compute and R&D remain costly, scale must translate into profit and cash flow to support the valuation case. Not advice, just analysis.
#Anthropic30TTAM$ZEC $SNDK Turning Point Confirmed! Complete Review of High-Level Layered Short Logic
Yesterday I clearly posted my view: ZEC has officially entered a market turning point, and SNDK can be shorted around the 1550 area.
Many think this was an offhand judgment, but every step of the view is supported by complete market logic and cycle basis.
1. Overall Market Momentum: Weak Uptrend, Correction is an Inevitable Repair
The biggest flaw in this round of the market is very obvious:
BTC strongly caught up and broke previous highs, but ETH remained stagnant throughout, and most other small and mid-cap sectors simultaneously corrected and weakened.
This is a typical signal of insufficient market capital momentum.
Only BTC is holding the market alone; second- and third-tier coins are not rotating along, indicating very limited incremental funds and severe capital divergence within the market.
Such a structural market cannot sustain a one-sided rally.
The market must undergo a deep correction to release high-level selling pressure and repair overbought indicators before it can have the momentum for a second upward move.
2. $ZEC Privacy Coin Leader: Doubling Completed, Good News Fully Priced In Becomes Bad News
As the absolute leader in privacy coins, $ZEC has nearly doubled in this round, with its market cap surging into the top ten, and the short-term gains have completely overextended expectations.
Those familiar with ZEC’s history know:
This coin has extremely strong explosive power but also very fierce pullbacks; it once dropped nearly 50% in a single day and took a full month to recover back to its original level.
During this rally, institutions have fully completed low-level accumulation and wave washing, combined with recent privacy narratives and ETF expectations being hyped, the good news has been thoroughlyBTC 在 79K 附近磨了一整天，像不像暴风雨前那种安静？ 你有没有感觉到，最近盘面其实很"闷"——不是没波动，而是波动都在窄框里来回蹭。BTC 摸了一下 80K 又被推回来，目前就在 79K 到 81K 之间游走，ETH 稳在 2470 附近，SOL 卡在 99。价格没怎么动，但情绪已经悄悄换了一种温度。 先给现在这个阶段定个性：这不是追涨的时候，也不是恐慌的时候，这更像是"等结果"的震荡局。真正的变量不在盘面里，而在明天早上——Nvidia 的财报要出来了。 这件事值得认真对待，因为它不只是美股的事。Nvidia 是 AI 叙事的核心标的，而 AI 叙事恰恰是这轮风险资产偏好的风向标之一。如果数据亮眼，市场会觉得"增长还在"，风险偏好会扩散，BTC 有机会直接去够 83K；如果不及预期，短期可能先来一次回调，反而给踏空的人递了个还算舒服的上车点。 但我想多说一层：市场其实已经提前把"还不错"的预期计入了不少价格。所以真正重要的不是财报本身好不好，而是它有没有超出那个已经被定价的"好"。如果只是符合预期，可能并不会带来太多额外的买盘；真正的惊喜或惊吓，才容易撬动情绪。 另外要提醒自According to S&P Global data, $MINIMAX's short positions have soared to 20% of free-float shares (a record high), and $ZHIPU Zhipu AI is about 6%, also setting a new record. MiniMax released its semi-annual report after the market closed tonight, with Zhipu to hand over on August 31, and bears are taking the opportunity to position positions. Both were hotly speculated when they went public at the beginning of the year: Zhipu is still over 800% above its IPO price, MiniMax over 80%, but both have been halved from their peaks. After the release of Kimi K3 in July, Zhipu fell as much as 24% and MiniMax dropped 18%. Zhipu then launched the GLM-5.3. Jefferies claimed its performance was close to Kimi K3 and its single-task cost was 19% lower, yet the stock price barely rebounded. Supply-side pressure is even greater: after the July lock-up period ended, Zhipu unlocked 25.68 million shares and MiniMax unlocked 150 million shares, totaling about $11.5 billion at the market at the time. Southbound funds are still taking over (Zhipu holds about 12%, MiniMax about 8.1%) but cannot support the stock price. Analyst opinions are divided: Hedgeye believes Zhipu is suppressed by price wars and has increased price and profit margins; MiniMax, on the other hand, is "neither the smartest nor the cheapest." The core question is simple: In an environment where large models are getting cheaper and competition is intensifying, can pure large model companies still truly make money? Tonight's MiniMax earnings report is the first hurdle. #星球日报 #OKX星球话题来啦 比特币在七万九千六百一十美元附近短暂驻足，距离八万美元这道心理关口只剩一步之遥，整个加密市场的总市值也随之来到二点七一万亿美元。以太坊同步走强，价格回升至两千五百美元一线。值得留意的是，这一轮加密资产的上涨并没有得到传统市场的呼应，纳斯达克当日下跌百分之零点七六，美股整体情绪偏弱，数字资产与美股之间正在形成一条越来越清晰的独立路径。 📉 在宏观层面，市场接下来的目光会集中在八月二十八日杰克逊霍尔全球央行年会，届时沃勒的发言被普遍视为连接经济数据与政策行动的关键节点。与此同时，巴森特宣布针对伊朗推出一套被形容为“前所未有”的经济措施，核心意图是切断伊朗与全球经济的联系，打击面覆盖数字资产、技术、黄金、航空以及航运五条关键命脉，并明确警告那些仍与伊朗保持贸易往来的国家可能面临连带制裁。伊朗最高领导人的高级顾问随即回应称，反击力度将超过以往任何时候，并特别强调了霍尔木兹海峡方向的威慑能力。地缘政治的不确定性，正在成为加密市场定价中不可忽视的变量。 🌍 科技股方面，英伟达连续第七个交易日下跌，累计跌幅接近百分之三，创下自二零二二年以来最长的连跌纪录。存储与光通信板块承受了明显的抛压，美光跌$ANTHROPIC throws out a $30 trillion TAM, painting a bigger picture than $xSPCX
Just saw the news, Anthropic is preparing to tell investors a $30 trillion story in its prospectus, surpassing the $28.5 trillion thrown out by SpaceX at its IPO.
$30 trillion is the TAM, the theoretical upper limit, not the actual amount they can earn, but daring to claim this number already beats SpaceX in narrative terms. Supporting this is a set of solid data: Q2 revenue broke 11.5 billion, a 14-fold year-over-year increase, and adjusted profit turned positive. By the end of July, annualized revenue surged above 65 billion.
However, some analyses point out that ARR used the gross method to recognize revenue, possibly including money shared with cloud providers. Net loss in 2025 is 42 billion, with a similarly astonishing burn rate.
A 2 trillion valuation target corresponds to about 31 times sales, higher than the 21 times during the May private placement. Valuation runs ahead first, waiting for fundamentals to verify—how many times have you seen this script? Whether it's Anthropic's 2 trillion or Yushu's 444.9 billion market cap on the first day of listing, the logic of the capital market is to price the future in advance; it's just a matter of the size of the bet.
#Anthropic估算30万亿美元市场，IPO叙事能否兑现？ Even companies are unwilling to spend money on new models, yet Anthropic dares to paint a $30 trillion pie. If it really happens, not only the AI sector but the entire US stock market will be drained by it.
Despite Fable 5 accounting for only 11% of total expenses with dismal performance, Anthropic still plans to raise over $100 billion at a $2 trillion valuation, nearly breaking SpaceX's record.
To gather this enormous amount of funds, institutions will definitely have to sell their stakes in old leaders like Nvidia to participate in the new offering. This will directly drain the existing capital pool.
But in trading, short selling is absolutely not allowed. The initial float of the new stock is only 5%, and in the AI sector, even a small amount of money leaking in can drive the price soaring.
Now the pre-market price is actually lower than the issue price. When it officially lists, the low float combined with large capital pulling hard will most likely cause a direct blowout against short sellers.
#Anthropic估算30万亿美元市场，IPO叙事能否兑现？ On the day $SOL surged to 100.44, I checked Jito's MEV daily fee revenue. The price rose but MEV tips didn't increase correspondingly, indicating that real on-chain arbitrage and priority fees didn't expand.

Stop loss to lock in cost, let the remaining position run profits. For those who didn't keep up, don't buy when MEV revenue and price diverge. $BTC $ETH There's a popular framework going around for why Bitcoin hasn't fully committed to a breakout above $80,000: big derivatives traders on Hyperliquid haven't gone "all in" yet, and until they do, every push higher risks being leverage theater rather than a real, spot-backed move. It's a reasonable lens. But one of its central assumptions doesn't hold up against the current data — and that changes the read. The Track Record Is Real Rewind to early March. Large accounts on Hyperliquid — the venue thThe macro environment is quietly shifting towards a positive side, with several signals appearing almost simultaneously, worth taking a moment to sort through. 👀 The first to catch attention is the US ISM Manufacturing Index reaching 55.6, a reading higher than market expectations and clearly above the expansion-contraction line. Manufacturing expansion often indicates a warming in real economic demand, and such data has always been an important source of confidence for risk assets. Meanwhile, the Russell 2000 index hit a historic high; the activity in small-cap stocks is usually seen as a direct reflection of rising risk appetite among investors. When investors are willing to chase higher volatility targets, market sentiment is often no longer hesitant. Looking at Bitcoin, the price has returned above $80,000. This level itself is not particularly exaggerated, but combined with the previous two contexts, its significance changes. When macro growth expectations and risk appetite rise simultaneously, the crypto market often reacts faster than traditional assets, a linkage that is not uncommon historically. However, I want to remind that this current Bitcoin breakout may not be the main upward wave of this cycle. It is more like a warm-up, the first tentative step after funds reconfirm their direction. What is truly worth looking forward to might be the journey after the price enters the phase of discovering new historical highs—that is when market sentiment and liquidity truly resonate. 🚀 Logically, manufacturing recovery means economic fundamentals are improving, small-cap stocks hitting new highs indicate funds are willing to take on more risk, and Bitcoin returning to a key psychological price level shows the crypto market is attracting attention again The longer Bitcoin stays above $80,000, the more complex market sentiment becomes. Judging by the price alone, it seems to have reached a new level, but a closer look at capital movements reveals that this round of rally is more about existing funds moving between sectors rather than large-scale external incremental entries. In other words, players inside the market are still trading their left hand for the right, just in a more lively position. Currently, the main support for Bitcoin's price bottom is institutions continuously allocating in batches on the spot side. This buying method is relatively restrained and more patient, able to hold the price without a deep drop, but expecting it to push prices further upward clearly lacks momentum. The direction of the next phase depends more on external macro data and the mood of dollar liquidity, and the company's willingness to proactively attack is not strong. In contrast to Bitcoin is Ethereum. Many people habitually believe that once Bitcoin stabilizes the overall situation, Ethereum will naturally catch up or even grow stronger. But in reality, in a stock game environment, total capital is limited. When market risk aversion heats up and funds concentrate on Bitcoin, Ethereum is more likely to be the one to be drained. Funds flow out of Ethereum and shift to Bitcoin, and this redistribution process directly suppresses Ethereum's independent performance. If Ethereum wants to create a truly unique trend, relying solely on Bitcoin to drive it is far from enough. It needs a substantial rebound in on-chain activity and new application scenarios or narrative logic to act as catalysts. If the overall market rises but on-chain transactions and user interactions remain sluggish, then...Is the violent bull run over? Is Monkey King coming?
$BTC has risen from 60,000 to 80,000 in this round. The most noteworthy aspect is not the increase itself, but its performance at the historical resistance level of 80,000 — in the past, every time it reached such a threshold, it would quickly crash, but this time it has stabilized sideways between 78,000 and 80,000.
Last week, it rose more than 20% in a single week, which normally would trigger a large amount of profit-taking and leveraged liquidations, causing a significant price pullback. However, the actual correction was very restrained; every time it dipped near 78,000, there was buying support to hold it up, and no panic selling occurred.
The support behind the market is not retail sentiment but real capital flow: the US BTC ETF has seen continuous net inflows for several days, with $338 million inflow on August 24 alone, and nearly $1.9 billion accumulated the previous week; meanwhile, Bitcoin balances on exchanges continue to decline, indicating that buyers are withdrawing and locking up coins rather than engaging in contract wash trading, so selling pressure has yet to appear — large funds do not intend to exit at 80,000.
The previous strong resistance at 80,000 is gradually turning into new support through high-level turnover. Those waiting to "buy the dip on a deep drop" may be waiting in vain. As long as volume increases and it holds above 80,000, the next target is 84,000 USD. There will be pullbacks along the way, but as long as 78,000 is not broken, the trend will not end.

$ETH $ZEC Iran risk now has two competing trades. Tougher US sanctions could squeeze oil supply, lift inflation and tighten dollar liquidity. Diplomacy could do the opposite by reopening Hormuz and stripping the risk premium from crude and gold. BTC sits awkwardly between both outcomes. Lower tensions reduce haven demand but improve the liquidity backdrop. The next move may depend less on geopolitics itself and more on whether sanctions or negotiations hit markets first. #IranSanctionsAndTalks #海力士推进NAND扩产，存储供给预期上升
SK Hynix's HBM4 roadmap revealed at Hot Chips is not just a simple technical iteration; it is firmly securing the pricing power of AI storage upstream.
The data is clear: HBM4 began mass production and shipment in Q2, achieving 48GB capacity with 16-layer stacking, 2TB/s bandwidth, and a 40% improvement in power efficiency, with large-scale expansion planned for the second half of the year. More importantly, long-term supply agreements have been signed with about 10 leading customers, and recently they secured Broadcom's AI chip HBM orders, extending their client base from NVIDIA to the entire AI chip sector.
Many only see capacity expansion, but I see an upgrade in bargaining power. SK Hynix has established a dedicated design team in Silicon Valley, collaborating directly with NVIDIA and Broadcom to jointly define specifications, shifting from "making chips per customer requests" to "defining specs together." The combination of technical barriers and deep customer binding means that if HBM prices rise, the manufacturers hold full pricing power, and downstream players have no choice but to accept it.
My core logic for holding long positions in SK Hynix remains unchanged: the bottleneck of AI computing power has long shifted from GPUs to storage, and the HBM shortage will last at least until next year. Short-term fluctuations do not affect the industry trend; pullbacks are buying opportunities.
How long do you think the HBM price increase cycle can continue?
$SKHYNIX Bitcoin remains flat, while Dogecoin continues to decline steadily; this is actually not contradictory—the essence is that funds are choosing sides.
Looking at the broader environment, recent geopolitical tensions and persistently high interest rates have heightened market risk aversion. The first reaction of capital is to retreat to the safest place, which is Bitcoin. $BTC has ETFs and institutional backing, so it neither falls nor rises much, just consolidating to digest positions. Dogecoin, on the other hand, is a highly volatile asset; when risk appetite drops, it is the first to be sold off. The June episode was especially typical, with futures open interest nearly halved, over $100 million in long positions liquidated, mostly affecting leveraged traders, while spot holders did not flee en masse.
In the short term, the previous SpaceX moon mission countdown pushed Dogecoin up over 30%, leading profit-takers to rush to cash out. Sellers at one point were twice the buyers, a classic case of profit-taking and pullback, not a collapse of fundamentals.
For bulls, there’s no need to panic. Around $0.07 is a strongly tested demand zone, and the TD indicator is signaling buy across monthly, weekly, and daily cycles simultaneously—a rare resonance. Historically, $DOGE behaves this way, spending 90% of the time dormant, with real rallies happening only briefly.
So the current scenario looks more like a frustrating bottom-building phase. Hold patiently, avoid high leverage, wait for Bitcoin to finish its sideways move and choose a direction. Dogecoin’s elasticity is often the greatest at that point.$UNITREE
Is Unitree Technology worth 240 billion?
After listing, Unitree Technology's market value fell back to about 240 billion yuan. With nearly 1.7 billion in revenue in 2025, having already achieved profitability and positive cash flow, revenue continued to grow in the first half of 2026, but profit and cash flow quality began to face pressure. The current valuation significantly overestimates the expectations of high growth and high returns over the next decade. The company has completed the critical step from prototype to mass production, but the real test ahead is: with a substantial increase in capital after listing, can ROE be rebuilt?

Friday may give us the answer.Many crypto veterans have a fixed impression of Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy): once they get money, they immediately go all-in on Bitcoin. But recently, the trend has completely reversed. Bitcoin surged all the way to 81,000, but it kept issuing more shares via ATMs, raising large amounts of dollars, while holding Bitcoin without moving and crazily accumulating a gold pool. This directly affects BTC market sentiment and determines the future price elasticity of MSTR. According to SEC filings, in mid to late August, Strategy sold large amounts of common shares through ATM market-based issuance mechanisms, raising a net weekly fundraising of $2.01 billion. The funds did not rush into the market to buy $BTC, but did three things: 1. Transfer part to the original USD reserve account to cover annual dividends and debt interest from STRC preferred stock; 2. Put aside part of the discounted STRC preferred shares to optimize the debt structure; 3. Establish a new independent $1.59 billion USD cash pool, which will serve as the future ammunition for buying Bitcoin. As of August 23, the company's overall USD liquidity has reached $6.69 billion; Bitcoin holdings remain at 840447, and during this round of replacement, no new Bitcoin was purchased. Previously, it was "fundraising = buying coins"; Now, "fundraising = building a safety cushion first, buying coins when the time comes." Market's first reaction: two completely opposing interpretations ✅ Bullish perspective: This is a good thing, first build a solid financial moat. Previously, the biggest market anxiety was: once BTC plunged, the public...The core conclusion of today's market is: **Risk appetite has rebounded in the short term, but tonight is the real directional choice.** Overnight, the three major U.S. stock indexes all rose, with technology and semiconductors showing clear recovery. The key combination behind this is a sharp drop in oil prices, a decline in long-term U.S. Treasury yields, and a continued weakening of the dollar. Meanwhile, BTC briefly broke through $80,000 and hit a three-month high, continuing to show stronger resilience than U.S. stocks. Tonight at 20:30 Beijing time, the U.S. PCE, Q2 GDP revision, and durable goods orders will be released in concentration, followed by Nvidia's earnings report in the early morning. These events are likely to determine the next phase direction of risk assets.
1. What happened overnight?
1. Oil prices suddenly plunged, and the market temporarily reduced the "energy re-inflation" trade.
Facts:
Overnight, Brent crude oil fell 3.89%, closing at $88.58 per barrel; WTI fell 3.12%, closing at $82.36 per barrel, both returning to about a one-week low.
The most important change comes from the market's re-pricing of the U.S.-Iran situation.
The U.S. previously announced expanded secondary sanctions on countries and institutions maintaining commercial ties with Iran, but the actual enforcement was less severe than the market's most extreme expectations and did not immediately evolve into a more direct energy supply shock.
At the same time, Iran and Oman are discussing a temporary navigation corridor through the Strait of Hormuz and a plan to clear naval mines.
Market reaction:
The geopolitical risk premium that had been accumulating in crude oil was clearly given back.
Underlying logic:
This matter is important for both U.S. stocks and BTC.
Oil price decline → corporate energy and transportation costs"Polychain Transfers 14.65 Million EIGEN: Institutional Portfolio Adjustment Plan 3 Months After Staking Redemption"
After being unstaked and idle for 3 months, Polychain finally deposited 14.65 million EIGEN into Coinbase Prime.
As early as the end of May, they redeemed 131.8 million EIGEN from EigenLayer in one go. A month ago, they restaked 46.86 million, and today they allocated 14.65 million, with 70.29 million still remaining on-chain.
With AVS yields leveling off, simply earning low staking interest can hardly cover the $0.22 price volatility. Depositing more into Coinbase is mainly for OTC bulk transfers, staking to borrow USDC for arbitrage, or setting up market-making grids. As the restaking sector matures, institutions are accelerating the rebalancing of their asset-liability sheets. $ETH After eight consecutive days of profit, I have re-evaluated Bitcoin's current position. At this moment, BTC is hovering around $78,770, with the total market capitalization of the entire crypto market at $2.73 trillion. This level is important because it lies right in the core zone of intense tug-of-war between bulls and bears; every fluctuation between $78,000 and $79,000 tugs at the nerves of leveraged funds. From the news perspective, the easing of geopolitical risks has brought tailwinds to risk assets. According to Russian media reports, the US and Iran are expected to restart negotiations, having reached a preliminary consensus on the terms of a ceasefire agreement, which may be officially announced and consultations initiated in the coming days. This development has quickly cooled the market's risk premium, with oil prices dropping nearly 2% to $80.47. When crude prices weaken and geopolitical uncertainty fades, funds tend to flow more willingly into stocks and crypto assets, which also provides external support for BTC's stabilization. The performance of the US stock market further confirms this sentiment recovery. The three major indices all closed higher, with crypto-related stocks performing particularly well; Robinhood rose more than 8% in a single day. Meanwhile, Nvidia ended a seven-day losing streak, rising 2.19% today, as the market holds its breath awaiting its after-hours earnings report. South Korea's DRAM export prices surged 401% year-over-year, reinforcing the narrative of tight memory supply and boosting sentiment in the tech sector.

This weekly "super Optimus Prime" has directly broken out of the descending channel that suppressed it for more than half a year.
The biggest change is still with ETFs.
In the past, the focus was mainly on halving, on-chain chips, and retail sentiment.
Now institutional funds have become stable marginal buyers, possibly compressing the bear market duration and potentially raising the cycle bottom.
Old indicators haven't completely failed; it's just that relying solely on the four-year cycle and extreme signals can no longer explain the current market. ETF subscriptions, U.S. Treasury yields, the dollar, and policy expectations are all gaining weight.
Buying near $80,000 driven by FOMO carries greater risk.
The weekly breakout indicates the structure has strengthened, but it doesn't mean it will keep rising. Historically, similar "long-term consolidation followed by a single week rise of over 20%" scenarios have a high mid-term continuation rate, but the subsequent maximum drawdown median is about 14.5%.
Based on this cycle's high, the normal pullback area is roughly between $68,000 and $72,000.
$BTC $ETH $SOL #BTC breaks through $80,000, can it hold the new level? #Spot ETF funds diverge, BTC selling pressure remains Good afternoon everyone!
$BTC BTC
Information pricing efficiency is relatively low. Major information (ETF approvals, regulatory bills, Federal Reserve policies) will bring trend changes, while daily on-chain data and rumors rarely disturb mid-term prices. Market participants are mainly institutions and long-term whales, who are insensitive to short-term noise.
Positive news won't cause an immediate full surge, and negative news won't cause an instant crash; there is a sufficient reaction window. The downside is that once expectations are fully priced in, "buy the rumor, sell the fact" often occurs. For example, when regulatory benefits are truly implemented, profit-taking may follow. BTC prices mostly reflect medium- to long-term macro and institutional changes, with daily noise filtered out by large long-term holdings.
$ETH ETH
Information pricing efficiency is moderate, with mixed sources. It must absorb macro signals like U.S. debt and regulations, while also digesting a large amount of on-chain info such as L2 upgrades, staking unlocks, DeFi data, and RWA progress.
The market often shows information divergence: some funds interpret it as positive, others as negative. For L2 upgrades, some see ecosystem expansion, others see dilution of mainnet value. Multiple pieces of information offset each other, causing prices to frequently fluctuate indecisively. After news breaks, it takes time for the market to game out a clear direction. SEC regulatory rumors repeatedly disturb the market, with both true and false news causing sharp volatility, and the cost of distinguishing truth is high.
$SOL SOL
Information pricing efficiency is extremely high, almost instantaneous. New on-chain protocols, MEME hotspots, KOL shoutouts, and social media buzz quickly reflect in the coin price. Social sentiment is the core pricing factor; a single tweet can trigger a large price spike.
But high efficiency does not equal correct pricing. Many short-term moves are purely emotion-driven, with very short information half-lives. Hot topics cause rapid rallies, but once the hype fades, prices quickly give back gains. A lot of noise is directly priced in, making it hard to distinguish true from false information, leading to frequent overreactions. Positive news can cause sharp surges, but once negative rumors appear, sell-offs flood in instantly, with frequent price spikes.
Comparison of the three: BTC is immune to noise and only reacts to major events; ETH is pulled by both macro and on-chain info, with large divergences and frequent fluctuations; SOL is highly sensitive to all social hotspots, reacts quickly, but often misprices.
In the current market environment, with various policy rumors flying around, BTC is least disturbed by noise; ETH is pulled by multiple expectations; SOL’s price is largely driven by social media hype. In this chaotic information phase, the more sensitive a variety is to information, the higher the trading risk.Market cap dominance continues to rise, the bull market is not an altcoin frenzy
BTC market cap dominance keeps climbing, reaching nearly 58% at its peak, with funds continuously gathering around the top mainstream coins. Many small altcoins remain stagnant; even when the overall market rises, many altcoins fall instead of rising.
BTC, BNB, and SOL have captured most of the market gains, while popular altcoins like BEAT, LAB, and BICO only experience brief pulses and struggle to sustain a continuous main rally.
In previous bull markets, when the overall market rose, altcoins soared across the board. Now with institutional funds entering, the market logic has changed, and broad-based rallies are becoming increasingly rare.
I used to always aim to catch 100x altcoins, but now I’m gradually accepting reality. Most small coins only rotate in the short term, while mainstream coins are actually more stable. Don’t blindly go all-in on altcoins betting on a breakout just because the overall market rises. #BTC突破80000美元，能否站稳新关口 #美扩大对伊制裁，海峡复航谈判推进 $BTC $ETH Today tossed the cup
Two-sided positive｜smiling cup, (reconsider, postpone) the timing is not right now, the idea is not comprehensive enough, it is recommended to calmly consider and postpone the decision.
$SNDK Will today repeat yesterday?
Today is essentially different from yesterday: yesterday closed down after a sharp shock, while today the intraday has recovered the 1500 mark, showing signs of stabilization and rebound.
But the key variable lies in Nvidia's Q2 earnings report—which is about to be released today. As a downstream of the AI computing power industry chain, the sentiment of the storage chip sector is highly tied to Nvidia. Looking back, even if Nvidia delivers better-than-expected earnings, the stock price often experiences a "good news realization pullback." Once the tech sector collectively takes profits, SanDisk will find it difficult to have an independent rally.
Technically, SanDisk's daily K-line is at a directional choice window after completing a five-wave decline. Some analyses believe that if the stock price stabilizes and rebounds above $1370, a new upward cycle is likely to start.
Overall, although SanDisk temporarily stopped falling and rebounded today, whether it can hold the gains and avoid repeating yesterday's surge and fall largely depends on the overall market reaction after Nvidia's earnings release. Short-term volatility risks still need to be watched. $SNDK $BTC brothers, while the US is expanding sanctions on Iran, it is also advancing negotiations to reopen the Strait! Will US-Iran relations ease or escalate next? I lean towards "fighting while negotiating."
The US expanding sanctions is true, and advancing negotiations is also true. Iran needs sanctions lifted to resume crude oil exports, and the US needs to suppress oil prices to manage inflation expectations. Both sides have motivation to negotiate but also have bottom lines they cannot retreat from. The negotiations won't be smooth sailing, but the probability of a complete breakdown is low.
If the Strait ultimately stabilizes and reopens for navigation, which will be affected first: oil prices, gold, or BTC?
Oil prices will react first; with the Strait open and supply restored, crude prices will most likely fall. The logic for gold and BTC is the opposite—oil price drops cool inflation expectations, reducing demand for gold and BTC as inflation hedges. But with the Fed's rate cut expectations still present, BTC's long-term logic remains fundamentally intact.
Will I adjust my strategy facing the fluctuating geopolitical situation?
No. Geopolitical events are just noise, affecting short-term sentiment, not long-term trends. A single statement from Trump can push prices up or down. Real positions should be based on more certain factors than geopolitical events—OKB's deflationary logic, continuous inflows into BTC ETFs, and the industrial trend in the AI sector. These won't change because of one negotiation.
I will continue executing the original plan. You can't control geopolitical events, but you can control your positions. $ETH $OKB #美扩大对伊制裁，海峡复航谈判推进 @OKX星球 Bitcoin quietly stood near $81,000 over the weekend, with a weekly gain of 24%, and Ethereum was also carried above $2,500. At first glance, the bull market horn seems to have sounded, but if you hold altcoins, these days might not feel so easy. The market's money has not been evenly spread across every sector; a growing temperature gap is opening between mainstream coins and small-to-mid cap tokens. The underlying tone of this round of gains is actually a concentrated choice of capital. Bitcoin and Ethereum have absorbed the vast majority of incremental liquidity, while most altcoins have almost stagnated or even declined slightly. This kind of structural market often tests patience more than a broad rally. The real winners are not necessarily those shouting the loudest, but those who did not let go during the most boring holding phases. Take the privacy coin ZEC as an example: it rose from around 500 to 888 within a week, a 72% increase, driven by the dual benefits of ETF listing expectations and mainnet upgrades. However, the weekly RSI has reached 70, approaching the overbought zone. Today's price retreat to around 780 looks more like a natural digestion after the positive news rather than a trend reversal. Those who impulsively chased near the peak are probably now experiencing the cost of "buying at the hype." The TRUMP token, on the other hand, is a completely different story, like a double-edged sword that has hurt almost all participants. On the 22nd, its price once surged to $3.6, rising 80% in 24 hours, followed by team-related wallets transferring out Coinbase premium has been negative for a long time, retail investors have not rushed in crazily
I have been continuously tracking the Coinbase premium index, which has been negative for more than sixty consecutive days, indicating that local retail spot buying is not as hot as imagined.
BTC surged to 81200, mainly driven by ETF institutional funds, with low retail participation. In contrast, ZEC and HYPE are more driven by Asian capital speculation. Although ETH has ETFs, it often experiences intermittent outflows.
Previously, when I saw large net inflows into ETFs, I assumed everyone was rushing in crazily. Breaking down the detailed data made it clear: institutions are buying, while retail investors are watching.
The market base comes from institutions, but institutions will also stop buying. If subsequent ETF inflows shrink again and retail investors cannot keep up with the handover, the risk of high-level volatility will increase. #BTC突破80000美元，能否站稳新关口 #美扩大对伊制裁，海峡复航谈判推进 $BTC $ETH 40x short BTC, these kinds of trades look fierce, but in reality, you're handing over your lifeline to volatility. If the direction is right, profits can be amplified by leverage; if wrong, your account can be liquidated even faster.
Key data, no beating around the bush: Coin BTC, leverage 40x, short position, entry price 79,364.43, position size $2,380,933.
Don't mistake a large position for skill. Many people aren't good at shorting; they just let emotions take over and turn their judgment into a gamble. They talk about discipline but start stubbornly holding on as soon as the market moves.
What 40x leverage fears most isn't a slow decline, but a sudden sharp rebound in the opposite direction. Your margin for error is pitifully small. One slight misjudgment can wipe out all your previous analysis.
When making this kind of trade, the first thought shouldn't be how much to earn, but whether you have a stop loss and an exit plan. Charging in without a plan isn't trading; it's using your wallet to practice with the market.
Cut losses when you should; don't wait for forced liquidation to admit your mistake. Preserve your capital, so you have a chance to come back to the table next time. After TRUMP cashed out, I understood the fate of MEME
The TRUMP team cashed out 2.94 million USD, GCR entered early with 700,000 principal, with a peak book value of 7.26 million, a tenfold return, but later also exited in batches.
I held a small position in TRUMP; during the rise, the enthusiasm was overwhelming, the community was shouting for tens of times gains, but once the team’s large cash-out news broke, the coin price declined for three consecutive days. PUMP and $FARTCOIN in the same sector also weakened simultaneously, and the hype quickly dissipated.
Data shows that the overall survival rate of MEME tokens is less than 3%, with most hype cycles lasting only a few days. The pattern of pump, frenzy, dump, and zeroing out is almost fixed.
Now I only play MEME with very small positions, quickly take profits when I earn, and absolutely never hold long-term faith narratives. MEME profits come from emotions, and when emotions recede, nothing remains. #BTC突破80000美元，能否站稳新关口 #美扩大对伊制裁，海峡复航谈判推进 $BTC $ETH Looking at these three signals together over the past two days is more interesting than just watching whether $BTC has risen or not: Middle East risks are shifting from "military conflict premium" to "sanctions + negotiations"; AI has entered a new round of valuation narratives; and Strategy is adding a cash buffer to its BTC strategy. These three seemingly unrelated pieces of news essentially answer the same question — what will global capital be willing to pay a premium for next? First, look at Iran. The US has indeed expanded sanctions on Iran, extending even to shipping, gold, technology, and digital assets, but what’s truly noteworthy is that the market has not continued to frantically trade on war escalation. Iran and Oman have already discussed a temporary shipping corridor and mine clearance in the Strait of Hormuz, and oil prices have actually fallen consecutively. In other words, oil price trading is no longer "more sanctions = guaranteed surge," but rather whether the probability of supply disruption continues to decline. For Crypto, this actually favors liquidity assets like $BTC, $ETH, and $SOL: with energy inflation pressure easing, risk appetite gets a bit more breathing room. The second point many people tend to misunderstand: Anthropic’s so-called "$30 trillion" is not the company valuation, but the potential total addressable market (TAM) it describes to investors. More importantly, Reuters previously disclosed its 2028 revenue target of about $190 billion to $200 billion; what really determines whether the IPO can sustain a high valuation is the speed of revenue realization. If AI capital expenditure continues to expand, what should be watched more in Crypto is not "buying just because of AI" #US expands sanctions on Iran, Strait navigation talks advance
The US has sanctioned again, and oil prices have dropped again. How many times has this script played out now?
The US announced an "unprecedented" economic blockade on Iran. Treasury Secretary Yellen said they aim to completely isolate Iran's economy, including crypto assets, technology, and gold in secondary sanctions. They are showing a posture to cut off all financial channels to Iran.
But what about oil prices? They have fallen for three consecutive days. Brent has already dropped below $89, and WTI is close to $81.
Why do oil prices fall after sanctions are implemented?
Simply put, the market doesn't believe this move can last. The key variable is that the Strait of Hormuz is loosening.
Iran and Oman have reached an agreement on a "temporary maritime corridor," starting with a temporary route, with talks on a permanent solution in 30 to 60 days. Trump has also softened his stance, saying the naval mines in the strait have been cleared, and the US is sending diplomats back to the Middle East. Both sides are looking for a way out.
Traders have named this trend "the peace that dares not be public is fermenting." Lots of thunder, little rain.
This script is really familiar—the last time, oil prices initially fell out of respect when sanctions were announced, then dropped further once the strait loosened, with a very similar pattern. This time the script is exactly the same: sanctions, oil price drop, strait talks, oil price continues to fall. How long did the last round of decline last? Anyway, it has started again this time.
Let's see how long this can last this time.🔍
$CL $BZ Solana's recent state can be described as a "shakeout," which is already considered mild. On-chain data is bustling, but the actual funds that remain at the table are becoming increasingly scarce. The market is quietly telling us: the scales of the narrative may be quietly tipping toward Ethereum. Let's start with a set of intriguing comparisons. Applications like Pump.fun and Fomo are going viral, and the community is almost once again obsessed with "copying wallets" and "chasing orders." But at the same time, the vast majority of newly issued meme coins haven't even reached the $50 million market cap threshold. This contrast itself speaks volumes: the traffic remains, but the depth and willingness to take on it are far from what they used to be. The specific case is even more straightforward. $CASHCAT is on Robinhood, barely holding a market cap around $200 million; $BASECAT listed on Coinbase but failed to break $50 million; $ANSEM had top industry KOLs calling for orders every day, but ultimately couldn't hold onto $400 million. A few months ago, projects backed by these resources could have pushed for a $1 billion market cap not a pipe dream. Now, it's become a tough game of "winning if you can make over $50 million." Why suddenly so hard? The popularity of copy trading tools is hard to blame. When everyone gets the same entry point and rushes toward the same exit, liquidity becomes a zero-sum game. Those who run fast earn money, those who run slowly,Now to explain, the meaning of Sesame↓Gate is: while we paid 100000 USDT and 800,000 ALD to the "scammer" wallet according to the contract, Gate's alpha coincidentally automatically captured the ALD tokens, then it cannot be disclosed who connected to the coin listing process, and finally the scammer's wallet transferred the tokens into Gate alpha for an airdrop, is that right?
The hash is here, the answer is here
When a project has paid, listed the coin, and then is told "the person communicating with you is not our staff, and the project is listed on Gate" — this is already a credibility issue for Gate.After reviewing the stablecoin market cap, I realize this cycle is a zero-sum game.
I checked the total on-chain stablecoin market cap, which remains around $319 billion with no significant new expansion. This indicates that large off-exchange funds have not flooded in.
Although BTC‑ETF saw an inflow of 2.6 billion last week, the inflow in the past 24 hours has dropped to 210 million; SOL‑ETF had a daily inflow of over 30 million, which looks good but is far smaller than BTC; $XRP‑ETF only had an inflow of just over 10 million, showing very restrained institutional allocation.
HYPE, BEAT, and $BICO rotate back and forth, with funds just selling one token to buy another. Without new stablecoins entering the market, a broad bull market rally is hard to achieve.
In the past, when the market rose, I fantasized about a big bull market starting, but now, looking at stablecoin data, I’m much more sober. A zero-sum market suits swing trading, not holding for easy wins. Don’t expect all tokens to take off together. #BTC突破80000美元，能否站稳新关口 #美扩大对伊制裁，海峡复航谈判推进 $BTC $ETH $SOL Kimchi premium, South Korean retail investors are quietly rewriting the altcoin rhythm
Recently, I have been continuously monitoring Upbit's trading volume. After the South Korean market opens, ZEC, HYPE, and ASTER often experience pulse surges, with the kimchi premium quickly rising to 2-3 points, attracting external funds to chase the highs.
Many times during the Asian session, South Korean funds push ASTER up by 8%, but when European and American funds enter, without buy-side follow-through, the price slowly falls back to the original level. The kimchi premium fluctuations for BTC and ETH are relatively small; it is mostly altcoins driven by sentiment.
I previously chased $ASTER when the premium surged, thinking a big market move was starting, but ended up trapped that same day. Now my approach is: treat the kimchi premium only as a sentiment indicator, do not chase when the premium rises, and observe after it falls back. South Korean retail investors are good at creating short-term hype but find it difficult to lead sustained trends.
