From a drop of 690% to a retracement of 441%
$SPCX has been fluctuating back and forth over the past month
Today it broke below 140 and is now continuing to probe down to 137
If you are still going long, hopefully your position is still there, testing 135
It will fall all day today, and fall all day tomorrow, with US stocks continuing to decline
So this drop may bottom out around 120
Watching the decline, many new entrants are following the trend to sell, which cannot be ignored
Also, Bitcoin has just broken through 65000, and US stocks have plunged
Many projects in the crypto space are showing signs of a significant rebound
#SPCX因星舰发射与解禁引发多空分歧 The Ultimate Truth Behind CORE's Reconciliation: No Surrender, No Loss! $150 Million BTC Assets Secured, Ending Internal Strife Completely
The market has misunderstood the Core and Maple reconciliation: it’s not about admitting defeat, losing a lawsuit, or having the track stolen. Instead, it’s the highest-level business stop-loss game in crypto — neither side admits fault, but neither can afford to drag it out!
1. Full Event Recap: A Top-Tier Cooperation That Fattened the Opponent
In early 2025, Core Foundation and Maple Finance joined forces to launch the heavyweight product lstBTC, opening the Bitcoin staking yield track.
Core fully provided core technology, massive market subsidies, and comprehensive traffic marketing;
Maple was only responsible for asset management.
This cooperation directly ignited the track: Maple’s asset management scale surged from under $500 million to $2.8 billion, and lstBTC pilot absorbed $150 million in Bitcoin stock assets, instantly becoming the hottest benchmark project in BTCFi at the time.
However, after the track was proven and the model validated, Maple directly betrayed and breached the agreement:
Using confidential cooperation data, they secretly developed a competing product syrupBTC, blatantly violating the exclusive 24-month cooperation agreement.
Core, unable to tolerate this, fought back hard by applying for an injunction at the Cayman Islands Grand Court:
1. Forcing Maple to stop launching syrupBTC;
2. Completely banning Maple from trading CORE tokens, locking down their ecosystem permissions.
After the situation escalated, Maple issued a deadly threat:
They threatened to impair $150 million of user Bitcoin deposits, indirectly implying inability to repay principal and shifting risk.
2. The Deep Truth of the Reconciliation Agreement: No Losers, Only Precise Game Theory
The official narrative is polished: neither party admits fault or breach.
Seemingly a draw, but in fact a carefully calculated exchange of interests, each taking what they need and precisely stopping losses.
Core Rights Maple Obtained
Lifted court injunction, officially gained compliance approval to launch syrupBTC, preserving their track layout and $3 billion asset management reputation, avoiding financing collapse and institutional decoupling risks from ongoing litigation.
Core’s Absolute Core Gains (The Most Critical Takeaway)
1. Preservation of $150 million user BTC assets
This is the first bottom line of the reconciliation! Maple promised full repayment of user principal, completely preventing large-scale asset crashes, user stampedes for compensation, and total brand collapse.
2. Ending exorbitant cross-border litigation internal strife
Cayman court cross-border arbitration and overseas compliance lawsuits incur sky-high lawyer fees and time costs; prolonged disputes only drain ecosystem energy and continuously depress prices.
3. Implicit reconciliation compensation received
The agreement’s financial terms are confidential; industry consensus is that Maple paid a large confidential settlement to get Core to withdraw the lawsuit and abandon exclusive rights.
4. Completely clearing negative sentiment and stopping market bleeding
Previously, CORE dropped over 90%; ongoing litigation disputes were the biggest emotional suppression. The reconciliation settles all negative dust, fully shedding old burdens.
3. Why This Is Absolutely Not "Working for the Opponent for Free"
Many don’t understand and think Core was stabbed in the back after validating the track, losing more than gaining. Actually, it’s the opposite:
1. The old lstBTC model was already invalid
Early yields fully depended on CORE inflation subsidies, not real ecosystem revenue. After the token’s deep drop, the original model collapsed; even without Maple’s betrayal, the old model would have naturally phased out, so no loss here.
2. Open-source tracks cannot be monopolized forever
The 24-month exclusive agreement only restricts commercial cooperation, not the open-source technology track. Rather than a long tug-of-war, it’s better to stop losses gracefully and secure gains.
3. Core’s strategy fully upgraded
After reconciliation, Core completely shed inefficient cooperation, no longer relying on third-party asset management, fully building BTCFi infrastructure, advancing SatPay implementation, expanding compliant financial ecosystems, abandoning the old path, and moving toward a higher-dimensional new narrative.
4. Final Summary
The essence of this reconciliation:
Maple paid for track freedom; Core stopped losses, preserved assets, received compensation, cleared negative sentiment, and gained rebirth.
No surrender, no loss, and definitely no defeat!
The so-called opponent betrayal and track theft are just surface illusions.
Core truly won the most critical outcome: user asset security, ecosystem negative clearing, complete end to internal strife, and a fresh start to welcome the 2026 revenue era.
Having endured the darkest struggles and washed away speculative noise, the true BTCFi leader has already completed its phoenix rebirth.
$CORE #CoreDAO #BTCFiTrack$ETH's movement today is truly unusual, with a full catch-up rally, just 0.27 short of touching the 1930 level, instantly stimulating the market.
Once volume breaks above 1930, it will officially break through the first short-term strong resistance, fully opening the upward space.
In contrast, $BTC is clearly weaker today, unable to continue yesterday's upward momentum, but the medium-term uptrend remains intact.
Honestly, BTC and Ethereum perform a double act every day—one strengthens while the other stays flat—making it hard to see synchronized market moves. It's rare for both to rally together; the main forces deliberately create divergence, keeping the overall market trend ambiguous and maximizing cautious sentiment.
I sincerely feel it's about time to take a break. I truly hope this is the temporary top of this small rebound phase. If it continues to push higher, holding positions will be too stressful.
If both major coins strengthen simultaneously, there's no question—the trend is upward and we follow it; but if only Ethereum rallies alone while BTC stagnates, this one-sided catch-up rally significantly reduces the quality of the market.
A simple breakdown of today's divergence causes:
1. Capital rotation within the market
After a large ETF inflow into BTC yesterday, some short-term funds took small profits and exited; existing funds then flowed into ETH, combined with continuous inflows into the Ethereum ETF, fueling this independent catch-up rally.
2. Their inherent pricing logic differs
BTC is mainly digital gold for hedging; with the FOMC minutes releasing tonight at midnight, funds are locking positions early and watching cautiously, avoiding aggressive moves;
ETH leans toward risk growth attributes; as long as market risk appetite slightly recovers, its elasticity immediately releases, easily producing an independent small rally.
3. Main forces' usual manipulation tactics
They avoid simultaneously pushing both major coins to prevent consensus bullish overheating—stabilizing BTC as the base while using ETH for swing harvesting, keeping bulls and bears from reaching unified consensus.
Key levels emphasized again:
ETH: 1930 watershed; holding above opens upward space; failure to hold after a spike is a bull trap pulse.
BTC: The original upward structure remains intact; key to hold 64000 support and wait for the minutes release before choosing direction.
Trader Gou Zong#WhiteHouseMeetsCryptoIndustry, Policy Outcomes Pending Observation The White House organized a closed-door meeting between crypto leaders such as Coinbase, Ripple, a16z, and senior officials from the SEC and CFTC. The market briefly speculated on regulatory easing benefits, but this meeting only established a communication channel, and substantial policy implementation remains highly uncertain.
The core topics of this meeting focused on digital asset legislation, stablecoin regulation, and exchange compliance frameworks. Industry demands centered on clarifying token classification, loosening institutional custody, and relaxing stablecoin yield restrictions; regulators insisted on investor protection and anti-money laundering bottom lines. Conflicts between banks and crypto companies concentrated on deposit diversion.
Short-term sentiment has some phased support, with market expectations of eased regulatory confrontation and a slight easing of institutional fund wait-and-see attitudes, providing mild support for BTC and crypto-related US stocks. However, history has repeatedly shown that without accompanying legislation or new regulations, White House talks often lead to a "buy the rumor, sell the fact" correction. Previous crypto summits saw rapid pullbacks after initial rallies due to lack of substantive policy announcements.
Medium- to long-term policy advancement faces significant resistance, with bipartisan differences in Congress unresolved, making comprehensive crypto legislation unlikely in the short term; market structure bills remain stuck at the Senate voting stage. Geopolitical and inflation data remain core variables for market trends. This meeting only improved regulatory communication atmosphere and cannot change the medium-term asset pricing logic.
Risk points are clear: if no accompanying easing policies are introduced later, market optimism will quickly fade; if regulators release tightening supplementary clauses, crypto asset valuations will be suppressed again. Overall, this meeting is judged to be a sentiment-positive for $BTC $ETH Nearly half of ETH's trading volume is concentrated in a few highly active windows — in the sample, its most active window contributed about 45.85% of the volume, while BTC's was only about 27.78% during the same period. This figure itself reminds us: when looking at ETH, you shouldn't just focus on the price, but also on where the volume is coming from.
The high concentration of trading volume indicates that ETH's liquidity is unevenly distributed over time, making the market more easily driven by a few key trading periods. This means that outside these windows, price fluctuations may be based on relatively thin trading volume, raising questions about representativeness and sustainability. In contrast, $BTC's volume distribution is more dispersed, often reflecting a higher market consensus on price trends, and its price signals tend to be more "solid."
From this, a practical judgment framework can be drawn: when ETH experiences a price breakout, it is essential to simultaneously check whether the volume supports it. If the breakout occurs during a low-activity window without accompanying volume expansion, it is more likely a short-term push by localized funds, with insufficient credibility and higher risk of chasing a peak; conversely, if volume expansion and price direction appear simultaneously, it indicates broad participation by real capital behind the breakout, making the trend signal more reliable.
For traders, the core of playing ETH lies in "identifying the windows." Rather than repeatedly guessing the direction during quiet periods, it is better to focus on the volume-price coordination in highly active windows: volume expansion with price increase confirms the move, volume contraction with price increase warrants caution, and volume expansion with stagnant price may signal divergence. Volume is the fuel for $ETH's market — a breakout without fuel is most likely just a bluff. $BTC $ETH Something's off with Ethereum; it caught up so much today, just 0.27 short of 1930. If it breaks through and holds above 1930 again, that would be breaking the first resistance level, and the upside space would gradually open up.
$BTC Bitcoin is relatively weak today, not breaking yesterday's signal, but the uptrend remains.
Bitcoin and Ethereum always perform a double act, always playing opposite roles, never syncing up. It's really rare for them to sync, which keeps the trend unclear and ambiguous.
$ETH That's enough, hope this is the top. If it keeps rising, it will really be unbearable. If both of them are strong together, then nothing more to say—that's the general trend after all. But if only Ethereum keeps rising, then what's the deal? #宇树科技科创板首日开盘暴涨629%,高估值如何兑现? The US dollar fell 0.71% in a single day, gold surged 2.70%, and on the same day the Treasury announced an increase in long-term bond repurchases. This is not an ordinary safe-haven trade; it is the bond market forcing the Treasury to act. The stock market rose slightly, the VIX fell, and risk assets temporarily breathed a sigh of relief, but the crypto market only dared to follow cautiously, with funds quietly flowing into some strange targets. Article Outline - 🔍 Bond market forces the Treasury to respond - 💰 Extreme tug-of-war between the dollar and gold, liquidity logic has changed - 🚀 Crypto follows but conservatively, $SNDK and $XAU volume hides secrets - ⏳ Next, closely watch long-term bond yields Today's snapshot $BTC 64,999, +1.31% $ETH 1,931, +1.85% $QQQ +0.15%, $SPY +0.36% $DXY -0.71%, $GLD +2.70% $IBIT +0.59%, VIX 15.3, -3.47% US crude oil (USO) 131.14, +0.37% 1. Bond market forces the Treasury to respond 🎯 The most striking news: After long-term bond yields rose, the US Treasury suddenly announced an increase in long-term bond repurchases. This is not a routine operation; it was forced by the market voting with its feet. TD Securities' Goldberg put it bluntly: "When the bond market speaks, people listen." Today, the market was heard. Rising long-term bond yields mean soaring US government financing costs and also drain liquidity from risk assets.Bitcoin is currently down about 49% from its historical peak in October 2025, with the price recently fluctuating between $62,300 and $66,500. The 30-day realized volatility has dropped to 27.2%, far below the long-term average of about 80%. Miner pressure remains a significant risk factor in the current market. Bitcoin network daily revenue has decreased by about 46% compared to last year, and mining difficulty has dropped 18.3% from the peak in November 2025, marking one of the largest declines since China's mining ban in 2021. Some low-efficiency mining machines have already exited the market. The current capitulation indicator is more suitable as a tool to judge the market cycle position rather than a short-term bottoming signal. Investors using these indicators for positioning should focus on cycles longer than one year, rather than expecting a strong rebound within the next few months #新手必看:这里有你需要的一切 $BTC #交易之声:你的经验值得被听到 $XAU wcnm, never going against the trend again #30年期美债收益率创2007年以来新高 #黄金站上4430美元,期权资金转向看涨 The storage sector was hit by a "Black Wednesday" today, with SanDisk dropping over 9% in a single day, wiping out more than half of last week's investor day gains.
From a professional perspective, the essence of this correction is a "expectation gap trade":
- SanDisk's Q4 gross margin of 84.6% is already a historical peak, but the guidance falls back to 83%-85%, leading the market to judge that the profit growth slope has peaked;
- The increase in NAND contract prices is starting to slow down, with Bernstein's July tracking report showing a significant narrowing of the Q3 increase compared to Q2, indicating the marginal effect of the price hike logic is weakening;
- In terms of volume-price relationship, currently only prices are rising without accelerated shipment volume, and management has not provided incremental logic, causing capital to question long-term growth potential.
But the good news is: NBM long-term contracts have locked in the baseline for the next four years, with 8 major customers, 93.9 billion guaranteed contracts, and 50% capacity locked until 2027—these are solid cash flow floors. Storage is transitioning from a traditional cyclical stock to a "long-term contract + AI" growth stock.
In the short term, don't rush to bottom-fish; wait for stabilization around $1400-1500 before considering. A good company does not mean it can be bought at any price. On August 19, the storage sector collectively pulled back. SanDisk (SNDK) dropped 9.02%, Micron (MU) fell 6.95%, SK Hynix ADR declined 9.20%, and the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index (SOX) plunged 4.98%.
The core reason for the pullback is not a fundamental problem but a combination of three pressures:
① Long-term U.S. Treasury yields continue to soar, with the 10-year Treasury yield breaking 4.75%, hitting high-valuation tech stocks first;
② Last week, SanDisk's investor day surged 34%, creating huge short-term profit-taking pressure, leading to concentrated sell-offs at the slightest disturbance;
③ The Korean KOSPI triggered a circuit breaker, with Samsung and Hynix crashing across the board, dragging down the storage sector.
However, the fundamental logic remains unchanged: $93.9 billion in backlog orders locks in revenue for the next 2-3 years, with a forward PE of only 7.5 times. AI's demand for storage is solid and real. Short-term volatility ≠ long-term logic collapse. Cyclical stocks are like this: expensive when rising, miserable when falling. True position management is staying clear-headed when others panic. This market situation is honestly a bit discouraging to watch.
Good news is clearly lining up—White House summit is ongoing, regulatory frameworks are being set up, ETF funds are pouring in heavily, every single one is a solid positive. But what about the market? Bitcoin stubbornly stays stuck at 64500 without moving, Ethereum can barely reach the 2000 threshold, it’s like punching cotton—no force can be exerted.
Some say maybe the market is malfunctioning? I think it’s not that the good news is useless, it’s that these positives have long been chewed up and swallowed in advance. The White House is holding meetings, ETFs are flowing in, none of this is unexpected. The market donkey here needs fresh carrots to be coaxed forward; it’s tired of the old tricks and won’t even lift its eyelids.
What’s more troublesome is that with this stalemate, liquidity is getting thinner and thinner, bulls and bears both dare not make a move, waiting for the other side to slip first. This deadlock can’t be broken by retail investors shouting "unite"; it requires real money to smash out a direction.
As for whether we can expect a bull market in October? Rushing won’t help. Market bottoming is like simmering soup; if the heat isn’t right, lifting the lid won’t let you taste the good stuff. That phrase "going to play US stocks" sounds pretty heartbreaking—if the crypto space doesn’t step up, it won’t even be able to keep its own people. $SPCX Short Position Small Profit Exit Review|Position Was Fine, Lost to the Underlying's Wild Volatility
This trade has been fully closed, opened at 141.72, closed at 140.81, ultimately pocketing a small profit.
Honestly, trading this kind of US stock-mapped contract, every entry keeps you on edge. The position logic looks reasonable, but the market often violently spikes, leaving very little room for error.
📈 Market Cycle Breakdown and Entry Judgment
I mainly relied on the 15-minute short timeframe to make this short-term short trade.
Earlier, a wave of capital quickly pushed the price up, directly hitting a high of 145.55. After several consecutive large bullish candles, the bullish momentum was clearly overextended.
After the price reached the high resistance zone, it failed to hold the new high and immediately closed with a large bearish candle, quickly breaking below the EMA5 and EMA10 moving averages. The moving averages turned downward, and the short-term uptrend structure collapsed.
Key resistance zone above is 144‑145.55, which was the hardest hit area of this rally; the first short-term support is near 139, with an important lower defense level at 138.31.
Regarding news and the nature of the underlying:
$SPCX is a US stock-mapped contract, and its price action fully follows the sentiment of the US stock market. It is a typical event-driven asset. When it rises, it surges aggressively; when profits are taken, it crashes mercilessly.
The overall market is in a consolidation phase without a large-scale one-sided trend. Such assets tend to exhibit pulse-like price action—fast rises and extremely rapid pullbacks, with poor sustainability, making them unsuitable for holding positions long-term.
My entry logic:
I am not subjectively guessing a top or betting on a reversal. When the price hits a key resistance zone, the 15-minute candlestick shows a clear sign of stalling and falling back, and the moving averages weaken, I enter a short position.
The trade is a bet on a short-term pullback caused by a wave of fading sentiment, aiming for quick in and out, not a large-scale downtrend.
Trading rules for this event-driven asset:
I set a strict rule for myself: never hold long-term, take profits within expected targets decisively, and do not hope to catch the entire downtrend.
When the market pulls back to my short-term target, I take profit and exit without hesitation.
Looking back at the review, the entry position was actually fine, just at the node of resistance pullback.
But it’s important to be clear that this kind of asset carries very high risk. Even if the entry point is reasonable, if US stock market funds suddenly launch a violent counterattack, a single surge can trigger stop losses.
Short-term signals are valid but don’t guarantee the market will follow the script. In contract trading, position is only one factor; asset characteristics, leverage, and holding time all determine the final outcome.
That’s trading—having sound logic only improves the win rate; there is no such thing as a 100% safe trade.
So the question is, after this quick pullback, do you think $SPCX will stabilize and rebound here, or continue downward to test lower support?
⚠️Personal live trade review, not investment adviceJust the sharp fluctuations in the US stock market from the open until now roughly match my own thought fluctuations.
After the Treasury expanded the repurchase, the market's first reaction was that liquidity arrived, so it went up. I think this calls for short covering and going long.
After thinking for a while, I feel the Treasury is so bold because the US debt trend has worsened. After such a big move, there might be even bigger risks ahead, which directly scared the market down again.
If it bounces back up later, that should mean the market has completely realized/given up, meaning the Trump team will do whatever it takes to secure the midterm elections. So just blindly follow along, don't fight the trend; after all, if the sky falls, there's a high roof to cover it. $SNDK $SKHYNIX $SPCX #US Treasury Bond Repurchase DoubledThe difficulty of making money in the native crypto market has reached a rather extreme level. Now, more and more US stock tokens are being listed, and the native ecosystem is becoming less pure. The trading volume of sndk has even surpassed that of btc.
The crypto space is highly speculative, mainly relying on consensus and liquidity. Funds are withdrawing from high-risk crypto and shifting towards US tech stocks, which is what the capital demands.
In the future, most altcoins may be delisted, but US stock tokens will not be delisted. The difference lies between air and substance, and Bitcoin will continue to move forward following the halving cycle, gradually decoupling from the Nasdaq.#Refined fuel price spread breaks 100, will energy inflation rebound?
The leader has something to say
The diesel crack spread hit $102, a historical high. Diesel inventory is at a 30-year low for this period.
The temporary ceasefire agreement between the US and Iran has expired, Brent crude is back to $91. Passage through the Strait of Hormuz is restricted, and Russian refined fuel supply is also decreasing. Diesel is the fundamental fuel for transportation, agriculture, and logistics. When its price rises, freight, food, and heating costs all increase accordingly, directly transmitting to the consumer end. This impact on inflation is more direct than crude oil rising alone.
The question is whether this is a short-term shock caused by geopolitical conflict or structural pressure due to insufficient refining capacity. If it is the latter, inflation expectations will rise again, long-term bond yields won't come down, and the valuation ceiling for risk assets will remain.
Still holding the short position on BTC at 64300, the add-on at 65200 has already been triggered. No new direction changes tonight.
The above analysis is time-sensitive; stop-loss orders must be set for positions. Good luck. $BTC $ETH $SNDK $GPS On August 16, using the narrative of "huge unlocking bad news fully priced in" to violently pump the price from 0.007 to 0.012, attracting the first batch of momentum traders. On August 17, it continued to rise to 0.017, with OKX Ventures selling $750,000 at the high, creating the illusion that "it can still go up." On August 18, it was pumped to 0.0186, RSI at 75 indicating overbought, technical indicators issuing warnings, and the manipulative whales completed their sell-off at the high. On August 19, the price was dumped by 30%, and all retail investors who chased the high were trapped at the peak. LTH selling near $100K is real, but LTH ≠ OG whales. Glassnode showed the 6–12 month holder cohort was a major source of selling during the move toward $100K. That’s very different from ancient $BTC holders. And when an OG sells, the BTC doesn’t vanish. It simply changes hands — creating a new holder, a new cost basis, and potentially another seller at $150K or $200K. So the key question isn’t: “WHEN WILL OGs RUN OUT OF BTC?” The real question is: WHEN DOES MARGINAL DEMAND START OUTPACING MARGI#闪迪回落逾9%,存储估值分歧加剧 $SNDK Sandisk (SNDK) Stock Price Full Review
Risk Warning: This is only a market logic review and does not constitute investment advice.
Overall Trend Overview
2025-02, spun off from Western Digital and independently listed on Nasdaq, initial stock price around $30-40, a pure NAND flash standalone target.
1. Full year 2025: Bottom consolidation and accumulation
Initial market attention was average, stock price fluctuated long-term between $200-300, the market had not fully priced in the incremental NAND storage demand from AI inference.
2. First half of 2026: Epic main upward wave
The market fully recognized the AI inference KV-Cache large-capacity storage logic, combined with NAND spot price increases and large multi-year long-term agreements (LTAs) landing, the stock price started a violent surge.
• 2026-04: Surpassed $900
• 2026-06-25: Reached historical high of $2348, the largest increase since spin-off exceeded 6000%.
3. July-August 2026: Intense high-level volatility and correction
After hitting new highs, entered a high-level digestion phase with huge fluctuations.
• Affected by rising US Treasury yields and profit-taking in the storage sector, maximum drawdown from the peak was nearly 28%.
• On Investor Day in August, the company proposed returning 100% of remaining cash after investments to shareholders, causing a single-day surge of 13%-17%, briefly rebounding to around $1580, then following the broader market to fluctuate downward again.
• Currently fluctuating widely between $1550-1700, volatility remains high, daily moves of 10% up or down are normal.
Key Technical Levels
• Historical high resistance: $2348, a major strong resistance level, requires fundamentals to exceed expectations again to challenge.
• Short-term resistance: $1750-1800, upper edge of recent trading range.
• Core support: $1300-1400, a densely traded area tested multiple times in August, the key dividing line between bulls and bears in this consolidation.
• Extreme defense level: $1100-1200, breaking below would indicate the AI storage bull market logic is being questioned by the market.
Core Factors Driving Stock Price
Upward Drivers
1. AI inference storage incremental narrative: Large models RAG, KV-Cache bring rigid demand for large-capacity NAND, market no longer sees it as a traditional consumer flash company but as an AI infrastructure target.
2. Long-term supply agreements (LTA): Multi-year locked volume orders signed with cloud providers largely smooth traditional NAND cycles, core logic for valuation uplift.
3. Rising NAND spot prices: Company has high operating leverage, price increases directly translate into huge profits, financial reports consistently beat expectations significantly.
4. Shareholder return plan: Commitment to return all remaining cash after capital expenditures to shareholders, enhancing shareholder value expectations.
Downward Risks Suppressing Stock Price
1. Valuation already fully priced with optimistic expectations, institutional target prices vary widely from $1100 to $3000, any data below expectations can cause sharp valuation cuts.
2. Risk of slowing NAND price increase slope: This round of performance largely comes from product price increases rather than shipment growth; if manufacturers expand capacity and flash prices fall, performance will be pressured.
3. High Beta characteristic: When US Treasury yields rise and tech sector pulls back, SNDK declines significantly more than the sector, a high volatility stock.
4. Market concerns: Future renewal prices of long-term agreements; progress of HBF new technology implementation; cloud providers' capital expenditure below expectations.
Three Scenario Simulations
1. Base scenario (neutral)
Continued high-level fluctuation between $1300-1800. Financial reports remain strong but growth slows marginally, market enters "verification of long-term agreement fulfillment" phase, awaiting new catalysts from HBF technology and cloud providers' capital expenditure.
2. Optimistic scenario
AI storage demand continues to exceed expectations; long-term agreements keep increasing; NAND supply and demand remain tight. Stock price rises again, challenging previous historical highs.
3. Pessimistic scenario
Cloud providers cut capital expenditure; NAND supply increases, prices turn downward. Effectively breaks $1300 support, stock price probes near $1100.
Summary
Sandisk is a highly elastic target in the AI storage cycle. The past year's surge came from two things: ① AI inference driving structural new NAND demand; ② Long-term supply agreements weakening traditional flash cycles.
However, the stock price has fully priced in optimistic expectations. The core future contradiction: whether AI storage demand can continue to be realized, and whether the NAND price cycle will reverse again.
Key indicators to track: NAND spot prices, cloud providers' capital expenditure guidance, long-term agreement renewal status, HBF new technology mass production progress.
#SNDK #Sandisk #StorageChip #NANDFlash #USStockMarketReview BTC options volatility is suppressed, indicating the market is not afraid of today but may be underestimating the risks in the coming months.
Recently, there has been an interesting phenomenon in the BTC options market: short-term options protection demand has decreased, and the market is pricing near-term volatility low, but there is still a certain risk premium retained for longer maturities. Simply put, traders seem not too worried about today but are not completely relaxed about the future. This structure fits well with the market environment on August 19.
$BTC is currently around $64,400, appearing calm on the surface, but there are many potential triggers ahead: Fed meeting minutes, Jackson Hole, follow-ups to the White House crypto meeting, SEC/CFTC division of responsibilities, renewed push after the Clarity Act delay, GENIUS Act stablecoin regulations, Strategy capital structure, oil prices, and Middle East risks. Any one of these events alone may not be enough to change the trend, but if they occur together unexpectedly, they could break the low volatility structure.
Low volatility is not safety; low volatility just means the market is temporarily unwilling to pay for risk. Often, the real big moves don’t happen when everyone is panicking but when everyone thinks nothing will move. Option sellers suppress volatility, market makers hedge around ranges, funding rates are not extreme, spot prices grind back and forth, creating an illusion of "all is well." But once the price breaks a key range, hedging desks will chase, leverage will move, and volatility will quickly amplify.
As BTC becomes more institutionalized, the options market will have a greater impact on spot. ETF holders may use options for protection, miners may hedge with futures and options, institutions may sell calls to increase yield, and market makers adjust spot and perpetual exposure based on Gamma. The result is that many spot price moves are actually adjustments in derivative positions. Without understanding options, it’s easy to only see price outcomes and miss the reasons behind them.
What’s most interesting now is that the market seems willing to believe BTC can continue to grind around $63,000 to $65,000 in the short term but is not fully relaxed in the medium term. This structure itself indicates traders don’t think the BTC story is over, just that there is a lack of strong triggers in the short term. The problem is, the denser the triggers, the more fragile the low volatility.
So when writing about BTC options today, don’t just say "more call options means it will go up." Options are not direction themselves but the market’s pricing of volatility and risk. What really matters is: if the Fed minutes deviate from expectations, can BTC break the range? If regulatory progress after the White House meeting exceeds expectations, will call positions amplify the rise? If oil prices and geopolitical risks worsen, will put demand return?
$BTC is not without volatility now; rather, volatility is suppressed underwater. The calm around $64,400 may just be the market waiting for the first real sound to break the balance. The more people think all is well, the more cautious you should be that volatility will come faster when trouble arises. $SD

Regarding future trends, ETH just says there is a chance, but not many opportunities; the key lies in storage cooling and a small portion of funds flowing back. The US stock sectors still rotate to optical modules or AI. Waiting for tokenized stocks, overall cooling, and favorable policies, I think the crypto spring is not far away.
Before spring arrives, it must be winter, definitely a final drop for the comrades. Don’t fantasize that 57,000 is the bottom; personally, I still lean towards the bear market not being over.

SL: 0.00224SK Hynix announced this afternoon a stock buyback and cancellation of about $28.6 billion within 3 months.
They plan to use more than 50% of the cumulative free cash flow from 2025 to 2027 for buybacks, cancellations, and dividends.
I was sleeping and ended up closing my original 1680 short position at breakeven (damn, so frustrating).
SK Hynix's buyback is indeed an important part of a short squeeze, but it should be noted that this is a capital return positive.
It is not news of new storage price hikes, customer orders, or production cuts, nor is it a large-scale market buildup of new long positions.
If interested, you can review my previous analysis article on SanDisk's surge due to the investment conference.
So this belongs to sector sentiment transmission: "positive trigger + short covering amplification".
This also explains why the price failed to hold after the surge, with 1693 becoming the short-term top confirmation level.
The current surge should still be regarded as a false breakout pressure level for now; just look at the positions to understand.
You cannot directly conclude that SanDisk has restarted a main upward wave just because of SK Hynix's buyback $SNDK #SKHynix40TrillionBuyback, how to balance expansion and returns $SKHYNIX $SNDK panicked and crashed yesterday, but today funds are bottom-fishing. Could this turn into a reversal?
Hynix and SanDisk have surged again and again—did you guys not catch on? The shorts are buzzing in their heads, but don’t worry, let’s analyze!
A violent rebound of nearly 10% in one hour! This round of storage stock rebound is directly catalyzed by Hynix’s plan to spend about 40 trillion KRW to repurchase and cancel approximately 24.07 million shares, about 3.3% of total shares outstanding, while committing to use at least 50% of cumulative free cash flow from 2025 to 2027 for shareholder returns.
Hynix dares to expand production while simultaneously deploying huge funds for buybacks, indicating management believes HBM and DRAM can continue generating cash flow. In other words, the storage market is at least not as bad as the market previously feared. Funds then spread this logic to MU, WDC, and SNDK. Hynix confirmed the industry logic, while SanDisk amplified sector sentiment with higher NAND profit elasticity.
Going forward, just watch the strength boundaries of the two stocks: SKHY looks at $150; if it holds and then retakes $165 to $170, the target is $180, then $190 to $195 at previous highs. Breaking below $149 to $150 means buybacks can only buffer the decline and are insufficient to reverse market expectations.
SNDK looks at $1650 and $1750; breaking through $1750 gives a chance to test $1800 to $1830. Holding above $1830 on volume means the main uptrend is restored. Conversely, breaking below $1650 means this rally is still more of an oversold recovery, and losing $1600 means watch out for a second pullback.
Simply put: SKHY holding $150 means sector confidence remains; SNDK breaking $1750 means the rebound has room to upgrade. Hynix is responsible for proving the storage industry really has money, and SanDisk is responsible for amplifying that confidence into a wave.$SNDK oi! SanDisk crashed...

#闪迪回落逾9%,存储估值分歧加剧 $1935 $ETH, are you still waiting for a lower? Let's look at the surface first: Continuously losing to $BTC, believers' faith is collapsing. Year-to-date fell 35%, down over 50% in one year, with the ETH/BTC exchange rate hitting new lows. Across the internet: "VC chains are failing," "Solana is about to surpass," "Vitalik only knows how to brag." But what happened next? The price rebounded from 1500 to 1935, rising nearly 30% in 30 days. The price has risen above the 50-day moving average (1856), with the 200-day moving average (2000) holding above it. After the MACD golden cross, momentum has weakened, and the RSI 57 is neutrally bullish. Ready to launch, just missing a high-volume bullish candle. First: Glamsterdam was postponed, but the market no longer cares. The originally planned H1 upgrade has been postponed to Q4, and developers warn that the 21,000 gas hard-coded assumption will be broken, requiring changes to both wallets and indexers. The community exploded: "Postponed again!" ETH is no longer working! Every upgrade delay is a buying opportunity when all the negative news has been exhausted. Shanghai upgrades have been delayed, Deneb has been delayed, and Pectra has also been delayed—which one hasn't risen so much that you want to break your thigh? The second thing: ETF funds are quietly flowing back, but you haven't noticed. On August 18, the net inflow was 71.47 million, with BlackRock alone contributing 90%. There have been net inflows for several consecutive weeks, absolute volume hasn't exploded yet, but the direction has already changed. The media only focused on the "ETH underperforming BTC" narrative, selectively ignoring it: institutions quietly accumulated shares in the 1900-2000 range, while retail investors remainedWow, $SNDK's movement today is even more thrilling than altcoins 😂, SanDisk is the real meat grinder, crypto is not.
In 24 hours, it dropped from 1736 all the way down to 1565.89, with a 10% amplitude, then it surged, dropped, surged, dropped again, a back-and-forth slaughter.
What's going on? Explained in three sentences:
US stock storage sector collectively crashed, SKHY -9%, SKHYNIX -9%, $SNDK followed down
SanDisk rose 35% in a week, profit-taking is heavy, any slight disturbance triggers a stampede to sell
Contract positions dropped 40% in one day, leverage was squeezed out—it's not that someone is dumping, but holders are being forced out
Current position:
1600 is a key psychological level, defended for a day
The lower 1565 was tested once today, if broken again, look at 1550-1520
The sell volume in the top 20 order book levels is 4 times the buy volume, the trend hasn't emerged yet
My view:
Leverage has been cleared, shorts are starting to pay to hold, which is a bullish sign; but selling pressure remains and the trend hasn't reversed, so it's not time to chase yet. This position is uncomfortable on both sides.
⚠️ Those without positions shouldn't rush in, those with positions should closely watch 1600—holding it means a correction, losing it means the next leg down.
The long-term AI storage logic remains intact, but the short-term slope is too steep, neither chasing nor bottom-fishing is a good idea. Wait for volume contraction and stabilization.

Assets are recovering, everyone please stay steady and hold on tight, let's progress and prosper together! $ETH First, BTC breaking through 65,000 drives Ethereum to rise! After BTC broke through 65,000, market sentiment warmed up across the board. As a high Beta asset, ETH following the rise after BTC's breakout is a normal correlation. BTC sets the stage, ETH performs the show; this script has played countless times in the crypto world.
Second, after consolidating around 1,900 for three weeks, a breakout forces shorts to cover! ETH consolidated in the 1,860-1,900 range for a full three weeks, with 1,900 as the upper boundary of this range. Once broken, short stop-loss orders are triggered, pushing the price up to 1,932. Breaking 1,900 means the short structure is broken, and momentum buyers naturally follow.
Third, technical indicators show a bullish alignment. The price has continuously held above SAR and SUPERTREND, the moving average system is starting to align bullishly, and the Bollinger Bands are widening upward. The technicals confirm the improvement in fundamentals, and a qualitative shift in the balance of bullish and bearish forces is occurring.$ETH ETH is quoted at 1,932.28 today, up 0.81% in 24h, with a 24h high of 1,942.60 and a low of 1,868.00. The iron ceiling at 1,900, which had been consolidating for three weeks, was completely broken through today. SAR at 1,905.72 is trampled underfoot, and SUPERTREND at 1,885.59 also provides solid support—daily-level bullish trend confirmed. The upper Bollinger Band at 1,933.04 is right overhead, with the price running close to the upper band, leaving less than 1 dollar of space. RSI6 is 75.95, RSI12 is 68.49, RSI24 is 61.06—all above 50, bulls are in control, but RSI6 has entered the overbought zone, increasing the risk of chasing highs. Volume is 905.37M USDT, significantly larger than before, indicating that chasing funds are entering the market.
Key price levels (take note):
· Resistance zone: 1,933.04 (upper Bollinger Band) → 1,940.22 (higher timeframe resistance) → 1,942.60 (24h high) → 1,950 (psychological level)
· Support zone: 1,920 (first pullback level) → 1,905.72 (SAR) → 1,885.59 (SUPERTREND) → 1,874.92 (lower Bollinger Band) Tether just completed its first full KPMG audit of USDT reserves… But the bigger story is what comes next. 👀 🤖 Tether is preparing to launch AI services aimed at developing markets.

The real pressure on the market is no longer just the valuation of tech stocks, but also the simultaneous rise in long-term US Treasury yields, oil prices, and fiscal risks. The S&P 500 fell 0.69%, the Nasdaq dropped 1.33%, and the 30-year US Treasury yield once surged to 5.337%, hitting a high not seen since 2007; WTI hovered around $85, with the market re-trading the chain "rising oil prices → inflation pressure → long-term interest rate increase → pressure on high-valuation assets." But the biggest sudden variable today is in the bond market. The US Treasury announced that starting September 9, it will at least double the liquidity support repo scale for 10–20 year and 20–30 year Treasury bonds, raising the cap per operation from $2 billion to at least $4 billion. After the announcement, the 30-year yield briefly dropped about 9 basis points to around 5.20%, $XAU surged 3% straight up, and US stock futures rose simultaneously. It must be made clear here: this is not QE, nor is it a Federal Reserve rate cut, but rather the Treasury actively improving the liquidity and supply-demand structure of long-term Treasuries. Therefore, the real question worth trading today is not "Treasury action = US stocks will rise," but rather → after the decline in long-term yields, is there genuine buying interest returning to the risk assets that were heavily sold off yesterday. 1.

SL: 0.0565Tonight's overall market is a preemptive game ahead of the minutes release.
SanDisk $SNDK: Riding on the positive stimulus from Hynix's buyback, it surged but was then hammered down by profit-taking, a roller coaster ride. This is an emotional recovery after an oversell, not a complete reversal. U.S. Treasury yields remain high, with many positions looking to break even or take profits above, so the rebound faces significant resistance, all depending on macro trends.
Bitcoin $BTC: Slightly moving up, as funds bet on the minutes leaning towards easing, positioning early. Volume hasn't increased, indicating existing funds are just shuffling within the range, unable to break major resistance, still constrained by the U.S. stock market.
Ethereum $ETH: Still passively following the rise, with high volatility but lacking initiative. When Bitcoin rises, it gets a bit of the gains; once the market weakens, it tends to fall harder than Bitcoin.
Common point: The current rise is driven by pre-meeting expectations. Positive news has already been priced in, making it easy to buy the rumor and sell the fact. The real test is the minutes at midnight; if the wording is hawkish, this rebound could be wiped out at any time. Do not blindly chase the highs. #海力士40万亿回购,扩产与回报如何平衡 #贝莱德重申BTC仍具配置价值 Let me ask you a question: if you put 5 bitcoins worth over $300,000 just in an exchange for a whole year, how much interest would you earn? As shown in the picture, the answer is less than $10. This is the awkwardness of Bitcoin as a non-income-generating asset. Although Bitmine and MicroStrategy have both suffered heavy losses, Bitmine can still tell a revenue story to the capital market. Ethereum's staking yields can be included in the profit statement, making Ethereum Bitmine's means of production, while MicroStrategy can only tell a story of hoarding coins and waiting for price appreciation.
However, fortunately, although Bitcoin itself has no yield, ordinary users can still take advantage of exchange benefits. The reason I choose to dollar-cost average and hoard coins on OKX is because there are always ongoing staking mining activities, each offering a 5% annualized return, and each account is given a 5 BTC quota. At least I can earn some living expenses. Without these activities, hoarding coins would be really tough. [Market Analysis]
The bullish strategy has played out, but unfortunately, there was no chance to get on board in the latter half. Most of the Hynix bottom positions were also sold off, but fortunately, this week's returns still look pretty good.
Looking ahead, I plan to switch to a bearish stance but need to wait for a more suitable entry point. For mid-to-long-term positions, the first batch is planned to be set up in the 65600-66200 range, with an expectation above 67200, so there is no rush to act.
The US dollar index is falling, the 30-year Treasury yield has also dropped, and geopolitical rhetoric does not seem to indicate a rekindling of conflict. The AI sector is rebounding strongly, so short positions should be restrained as much as possible.
Recently, tradfi has been much easier to trade than crypto. For short-term, rely on US stocks; for mid-to-long-term, focus on Bitcoin.

#海力士40万亿回购,扩产与回报如何平衡 Micron Technology $MU review of yesterday's view: The 1000 psychological resistance level is very strong, and the selling pressure above needs to be fully digested; the key pullback range below is 922-871, with a mid-to-long-term ultimate target of 1690, waiting for the market to verify.
The current pre-market price is 933, already very close to the key support at 922. Focus on whether it will retest this range today before rebounding again.
From a technical perspective, looking at the 45-minute level indicators, pay close attention to whether the MACD zero line can form effective support.

EP: 0.0465–0.0480
TP: 0.0500 / 0.0520 / 0.0550
SL: 0.0448ETH is more suitable for trend trading, but this conclusion needs a premise: only when it "wants to trend." From the perspective of volatility structure, within the same high-activity window, the proportion of single 4-hour ETH candlesticks with an absolute price change of 1% is about 40.5%, while $BTC is only about 21.4%—ETH experiences noticeable volatility nearly twice as often as BTC. This is not just "ETH has larger amplitude"; it indicates that ETH's market is not a slow climb type but pulse-like: long periods of narrow oscillation, with brief concentrated directional releases. For trend traders, this is an ideal target because the profit source of trends is this kind of asymmetric volatility—catching one or two high-volume candlesticks can cover multiple trial-and-error costs.
But the other side of the coin is equally obvious. High volatility frequency means more "spikes" during sideways phases; ETH is more prone to false breakouts during range oscillations: the price just breaks a key level, attracting breakout orders to enter, then immediately reverses to wipe out stop losses and return inside the range. If you mechanically use breakout strategies throughout, you will be repeatedly worn down during consolidation periods.
So a more accurate answer is: ETH is a trend asset but requires range-based thinking to filter entries. Reduce position size, widen stop losses, or stay out during sideways phases, saving bullets for when volatility expands again and direction is confirmed; once the trend starts, leverage ETH's pulse-like characteristics to let profits run. Simply put, $ETH rewards patient trend traders and punishes those who treat every 1% candlestick as a signal. $BTC First, macro data continues to provide support. US July retail sales fell by 0.6% month-over-month, with cooling consumption continuing to suppress September rate hike expectations. The US dollar and Treasury yields are under pressure, and BTC, as a risk asset, directly benefits. "Rate cut expectations" are the core fuel for this rally.
Second, the psychological barrier of 65,000 was broken, triggering a targeted short squeeze! BTC had been consolidating between 62,500 and 64,000 for nearly four weeks, with 65,000 as the upper boundary of this range. Once broken, short stop-loss orders were triggered, pushing the price up to 65,188. Breaking 65,000 confirms a bullish trend, and shorts are being crushed.
Third, a bullish technical formation has taken shape. The price has continuously held above SAR and SUPERTREND, the moving average system has started a bullish alignment, and the Bollinger Bands are widening upwards. The technicals are confirming the improvement in macro conditions, and a qualitative shift in the balance of bullish and bearish forces is occurring. Alright, I'll put my judgment here first: I think the US stock market has pretty much bottomed out this time.
Storage also confirmed my judgment. It clearly started to stop falling around 1600 in the afternoon, so I was ready to switch to long on SanDisk $SNDK. Then a major news came immediately: The US Treasury is preparing to at least double the scale of long-term US debt repurchases.
I don't see this as an ordinary operation; in my view, this is more like "implicit QE." Treasury increases repurchases → relieves liquidity pressure on the long end → US bond yields decline → real interest rates drop → funds flow back into gold, BTC, and US stocks.
After the news came out, all three rallied together, which made me even more certain.
Especially BTC, I believe this rebound is far from over. ETH is the same; after BTC stabilizes, ETH is very likely to continue catching up.
So I won't chase shorts now; instead, I will continue to maintain a bullish stance.
My logic is simple: liquidity is loosening, funds are flowing back, so just follow the money. $BTC $ETH $SKDD short position opened at 11.54, marked at 10.59, +164.64%.
At around 11.54 during monitoring, a very long upper shadow candle closed, indicating heavy selling pressure above and the bulls' attack was completely repelled.
The long upper shadow is a clear short-term top signal; I entered the market after confirming at the close.
20x leverage amplified the power of this "lightning rod".
Now at 10.59, the space of the upper shadow has been fully recovered.
Market language is hidden in the candlesticks; understanding it leads to winning. Bears control the market, continue to be bearish! $BTC $ETH If the last bull market $AAVE was dominated by V3's "E-Mode" and multi-chain expansion, then with the official launch of Aave V4, Aave is completing a fundamental shift from a "crypto lending protocol" to a "global full-asset clearing and lending foundation." Setting aside empty promotions, let's understand Aave's core three underlying changes and chip logic: 1. Architectural innovation: From "pooled isolation" to "Hub & Spoke" The old V3 was easy to use, but the liquidity of each chain and each fund pool was fragmented. V4 introduces a brand-new Hub & Spoke architecture: Liquidity Hub: all network funds are centrally stored in the central hub, with unified risk management and ledger clearing. Spokes (business branches): Whether it's a compliance pool for institutions, fast lending for specific L2s, or lending channels dedicated to accessing RWA (Real-World Assets), these are just branches connected to Hub. Results: Fund utilization rate increased exponentially. With new business launching online, there's no need to "mine" from scratch to attract liquidity, and you can directly share Hub's billion-yuan capital pool. 2. Battlefield expansion: The "securities finance" market that has taken over TradFi Aave is no longer satisfiedWhy do BTC and ETH experience their largest 4-hour fluctuations every day concentrated at night?
The core reason is not that Asian funds suddenly become stronger, but that the European and American trading sessions overlap from 20:00 to 24:00 Beijing time: the US early session is getting underway while Europe has not fully exited. Macroeconomic data, Federal Reserve speeches, ETF funds, and derivatives settlements often fall within this period, increasing both liquidity and information density, making prices naturally more prone to directional moves. Volume and volatility peak simultaneously during this time, indicating that it’s not just busy but also more likely to trigger trend initiations or rapid corrections after false breakouts. The average high-low amplitude of a single 4-hour candlestick is about 1.42% for BTC and about 1.98% for ETH, both the highest among six intraday windows; ETH’s near 2% normal swing means that overly tight stop losses will be repeatedly triggered by noise. For traders, this period is suitable for monitoring breakouts, controlling leverage, loosening stop losses, or using staggered take profits; for low-frequency investors, there’s no need to be swayed by sudden rises and falls at night. What really needs to be guarded against is treating this peak window as a full-day pattern: volume contractions and pullbacks during other periods often determine whether the direction during this time can continue.SpaceX $SPCX review of yesterday's view: Focus on waiting for the 129-134 pullback support range, and after stabilizing, then consider targeting 158
