Quant has become a systemic variable in China's socio-economic system. In the first quarter of 2026, quant accounted for over 35% of the average daily turnover in A-shares, with daily trading volumes often reaching hundreds of billions to over a trillion yuan. Quant is now the core force directly involved in price discovery, liquidity, and volatility structures. Any state apparatus, once it realizes that a significant portion of market pricing power is in the hands of algorithms and computing power, will instinctively tighten for control.
Fang Xinghai's investigation is just one of the triggers; he represents the previous open-minded approach of liberalizing quantitative trading, introducing short selling, and market-oriented tools. As soon as he fell, the space that had been tacitly allowed instantly narrowed. The essence of regulation is to re-imprison quantitative metrics in a controllable cage.
JPMorgan's move is focused on options-style hedging. Earlier this year, they formed a dedicated China quantitative trading and research team, aiming to accelerate electronic trading and compete with non-bank giants like Citadel and Jane Street. Now, people are concentrated in Singapore, retaining access capabilities, but core models and talent are placed where rules are clear, political friction is low, and data and infrastructure are more user-friendly. Singapore has already become their clear Asia-Pacific Center of Quantitative Excellence. Stripping unpredictable policy risks off the balance sheet. Truly high-end institutional decisions have never been about risk-adjusted expected returns—whether it's still worth placing core assets here
China is actively abandoning path dependence on efficient markets. Mature markets accept quant as an efficiency engine, but the cost is that retail investors are systematically at a disadvantage in information and speed. China has repeatedly chosen another path: using administrative means to suppress unfair advantages, in exchange for stable retail sentiment and controllable narrative.
As a result, A-shares have long remained in a retail-dominated model characterized by "high turnover, high volatility, and low pricing efficiency." With such a high proportion of quantitative assets, continuing to wear the tightening spell is essentially telling global capital that the market structure here prioritizes political and social goals, rather than capital allocation efficiency.
Talent outflow, model relocation, and the shift of core R&D focus southward are natural outcomes of this choice. Singapore and Hong Kong are riding the wave of this spillover effect
#财报观察员: Who can truly understand the real answer sheet from Google and Tesla this time? Looking at the overall pace of U.S. stocks throughout 2026, no week's information density, market weight, or pricing influence can rival the just-started final trading week of July. This is truly the most prestigious Super Week of the year. Four major macro data points—the Federal Reserve's July interest rate decision, the preliminary US Q2 GDP, core PCE inflation, and the Employment Cost Index—were all released together, combined with the four trillion-dollar AI tech giants Microsoft, Meta, Apple, and Amazon releasing their earnings intensively. Macro policies, inflation fundamentals, economic growth, and AI industry profitability logic will all complete centralized pricing within a week. The more than half year of AI market debate, expectations of high interest rates to persist, and the valuation battles among U.S. growth stocks have all reached their final showdowns. 1. Market Review This Week: AI Valuation Logic Completely Changed, Market Enters a New Pricing Phase The recently concluded trading week saw a slight index pullback in U.S. stocks and deep divergence among tech stocks. For the week, the S&P 500 fell 0.6% for the week, the Dow Jones Industrial Average edged down 0.4%, and the Nasdaq dropped sharply by 2.1%, with growth stocks showing clear signs of pressure. The core trigger for this round of adjustment is no longer simply disappointing performance, but a fundamental shift in market pricing logic. Previously, the market blindly embraced the AI track, where as long as companies increased their investment in AI computing power and laid out AI infrastructure, they could gain a valuation premium. However, after the latest financial reports from Google and Tesla dropped sharply, the entire market completely reversed its thinking: high growth in AI has become a market consensus, and the only real concern for capital right now is sky-high pricesThe banking industry is the core force in lobbying against the CLARITY Act. On the surface, it claims to protect consumers, but at its core, it's about users transferring their deposits out of banks for higher returns. The bank's profit model is to absorb low-interest or even interest-free deposits to lend and profit. In the past, users had no better financial options and only wanted to keep their funds within the system. Once the crypto sector offers higher returns, this profit foundation will be shaken, and the advantage banks rely on policy barriers to hold will be broken.
Bill progress stalled: Some Republican lawmakers believe the text needs further revisions before supporting it, while Democratic lawmakers who originally favored crypto opposed it because it does not restrict the Trump family's crypto-related revenues. The demands of both sides are completely at odds, resulting in regulatory rules remaining blank for a long time.
Without clear regulation, emerging crypto companies find it difficult to enter compliantly, and there is a lack of reasonable sources for public funds. What the banking industry truly protects is not the interests of depositors, but the current vacuum in this regulatory vacuum. Their fear that the crypto industry will break the existing pattern precisely shows that the traditional financial system has long used barriers to trap ordinary savers' wealth choices. #参议院CLARITY法案下周或表决: Favorable Moments or Shortcoming? While slacking off in the afternoon, I found SHIB's performance today quite impressive, rising 9.49% in one day. The latest price is $0.000005210. If you count from around 0.00000423, this rebound is already close to 20%.
However, I didn't chase it immediately. Instead, I checked the on-chain data and felt there were several noteworthy changes behind this rally.
First, the number of tokens on exchanges continues to decrease.
In the past 24 hours, over 11.3 billion SHIB flowed out of exchanges, with an overall net flow of about -145 billion SHIB, indicating a clear net outflow on-chain. Meanwhile, exchange reserves have dropped to 86.1 trillion, getting closer and closer to the psychological threshold often mentioned by the market.
My understanding is that the reduction in tradable and sellable tokens on exchanges will indeed provide some short-term support for supply, but tightening supply is only one factor affecting prices; it also depends on whether capital inflows continue to be made.
Another change is that the destruction speed is also being increased.
In the past 24 hours, the SHIB burn rate surged by 350%; In the past 7 days, a total of 44.23 million SHIB tokens were burned, a 32.63% increase compared to the previous week. These figures indicate that the community is still advancing the burn mechanism, which will help market sentiment.
There are also new catalysts on the news side.
With ongoing legislative advances related to Japanese crypto ETFs, SHIB has been included in Japan's JVCEA green list, which to some extent enhances its compliance market narrative. This is a positive signal for funds long-focused on the Japanese market.
However, I think we shouldn't just look at the positive news now.
From a technical perspective, SHIB is still trading below the 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day EMAs, indicating that the medium- to long-term trend has not truly reversed. Additionally, on-chain data shows that about 707 wallets control 94% of the supply, with whale holdings remaining highly concentrated.
Another point that's easy to overlook: although the amount of burned has increased significantly recently, compared to the circulating supply of about 589 trillion coins, the scale of this burn is still relatively limited. In the short term, it tends to improve market sentiment rather than completely change supply-demand relationships.
Next, I will focus on resistance in the 0.00000520–0.00000530 USD range.
If trading volume can effectively amplify and break through, the upper side can continue to watch the 0.000000550—0.00000600 USD area; If the rally is blocked, attention should still be paid to whether the 0.00000418–0.00000420 USD range can form the first support.
Overall, I prefer to see this rally as a technical recovery driven by tighter supply, increased burning, and sector synergy. Before a true trend reversal is achieved, I think more trading volume and sustained capital inflows are needed to confirm, so I won't change my trading rhythm just because of a single day's rise.
The above is just my personal observation based on market data and public data, and does not constitute any investment advice. When trading, you should manage your positions according to your own risk tolerance.

My dad came to ask again tonight
I just looked at the board and could only give a dry laugh
Traditional markets are closed on Sundays

I quickly glanced at the message

In 24 hours, it rose by 0.71%.
The missile narrative is a bit looser
Oil prices fell first
The currency is first green
US stocks will have to wait until Monday to open and verify their results
This collaboration is a bit twisted
In the past, whenever I heard about tensions in the Middle East,
Everyone was just waiting to smash the price and put on a show
Now, pricing is more like the Xiansong product channel
Risk assets will find a way out over the weekend
On Friday, the ETF still saw a net outflow of about $225 million
The cumulative net inflow was about 81.2 billion yuan
Institutional ledgers are not so romantic
But the spot just doesn't go along with the panic script
The open interest in BTC contracts on OKX is about 31,700 units
This amounts to around 2 billion US dollars
The funding rate is close to zero
The weekend volume is also not exaggerated
It looks more like a sideways trading loss
It's not a trend ignite
So my judgment is
Before Monday's open, don't formulate 'oil drop = US stocks must rally = crypto must surge.'
Easing only reduces tail risk premiums
Whether it's real or not depends on whether US stock futures and crude oil are confirmed together
I'd rather see the reaction with the in-stock stock
Don't use weekend sentiment to leverage it
Looking through today's plate, there are a few interesting points:
#财报观察员: Who can truly understand the real answer sheet from Google and Tesla this time?
Earnings season is still reflecting on the two reports from Google and TeslaThe stock price has dropped from $200 to $110, completely shattering the logic of "scarcity." The first batch of 20% employee stock ownership unlocked at the end of July is just the beginning. By August 6, about 910 million shares are expected to be tradable, while the previously tradable shares accounted for only about 4% of total share capital—the supply is about to double or even more.
For a large number of employees with very low exercise costs, the unrealized profit on paper is still substantial even at $110. Mortgages, education, asset allocation—monetization is a rigid demand. Not to mention, short positions now account for about 30% of the circulating shares, so short selling funds are positioning in advance, waiting to receive these "blood-soaked chips."
But risk often breeds opportunity. If the stock price accelerates its decline after the early August earnings report, or if a sharp drop leads to a clear volume reduction and bottoming pattern, it is highly likely that panic trading and unlocking selling pressure are being concentrated and released. At that time, low-price chips may appear. I will wait for that moment. ⚠️During the 2024-2025 rally, the main rally for altcoins generally didn't last more than three months, followed by a general pullback of over 80%. During this short window, only a few people took profits in time, while most were trapped. Essentially, they treated the hype story as a long-term value belief.
The lifespan of counterfeit markets is extremely short, caused by multiple factors combined:
First, altcoin buying funds are limited to the existing market within the circle, with no external incremental funds entering the market; Second, it represents the end of market rotation, with most funds already diverted to mainstream coins; Combined with project token unlocks and project team dumping, selling pressure is continuous; This round of ETFs also diverted mainstream coin funds, and the 'dog' sector has taken up liquidity from the market stock.
Looking ahead, I am more optimistic about the DeFi sector, whose market cycle will also last about three months. #交易之声: Your experience deserves to be heard 🚀 RWA perpetual monthly trading volume reached 470 billion, soaring 450% in half a year!
This is not the frenzy at the end of a bull market, but a signal of a new track starting.
Tokenized stocks, commodities, and even SpaceX are being "perpetually" traded on-chain.
In June, just three major platforms including OKX accounted for over 80% of the share, with SpaceX alone reaching 66 billion in a single month.
🧠 My three observations:
❶ It's not speculative shell swapping, but capital searching for "on-chain Alpha"
The low volatility of traditional assets combined with the high leverage of perpetual contracts naturally suits market makers and event-driven traders. 66 billion is not a volume retail investors can generate; institutions are testing the waters.
❷ Tokenized stocks surged 7 times, who’s next?
I believe it’s government bond yield rights—on-chain interest-bearing assets + RWA compliance represent a trillion-level blue ocean. Pre-IPO liquidity is poor, foreign exchange regulatory barriers are high, so government bonds are most likely to explode first.
❸ Haven't traded yet? What are you waiting for?
Waiting for liquidity? Waiting for regulation? Waiting for a friendlier UI?
— These are all rapidly improving, and early adopters are already capturing the premium.
#RWA永续月交易量4700亿美元 High prosperity and high volatility in storage stocks: Which is more worth watching, Micron, SanDisk, or SK Hynix?
The expansion of AI computing power is reshaping the competitive landscape of the storage industry. In the past, investors viewed memory and flash as highly cyclical basic components; price increases often meant supply-demand imbalances, while price declines meant inventory buildup. With the advent of the AI era, HBM, high-capacity server DRAM, and enterprise-grade SSDs have begun to become core devices in data centers, giving storage manufacturers new growth opportunities.
However, the recent performance of storage stocks reminds investors that a positive industry fundamental does not necessarily mean stock prices can continue to rise. On July 24, Micron fell about 7% in a single day, SanDisk dropped about 11%, and SK Hynix's Korean domestic stock dropped about 8%. Previously, all three companies experienced significant gains, but the recent pullback feels more like profit-taking and valuation revaluation rather than a sudden disappearance of demand.
AI continues to expand storage demand
AI servers require large amounts of HBM to improve GPU data transfer efficiency, and DRAM is also needed to store running data. As model scale increases, data centers will need to deploy more SSDs to store training data, model files, caches, and inference results.
Market research firm Gartner predicts that DRAM prices could rise by 125% in 2026, NAND Flash prices by 234%, and storage price pressures may continue beyond 2027. Gartner Industry Forecast
TrendForce also holds a bullish outlook for Q2 2026, expecting traditional DRAM contract prices to rise 58% to 63% quarter-over-quarter, and NAND Flash prices to increase 70% to 75%. Storage manufacturers are shifting more capacity toward HBM, server memory, and enterprise-grade SSDs, causing supply contractions for storage products used in regular PCs and mobile phones. TrendForce price prediction for $MU $SKHYNIX $SNDK
This set of data shows the industry is still in a strong cycle, but it also raises a question: how long can high prices last?
Micron: The most complete product and the highest expectations
Micron also operates DRAM, HBM, NAND, and enterprise-grade SSDs. It can benefit from the memory demands of AI servers and also from expanding storage capacity in data centers.
Micron's revenue for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 reached $41.46 billion, setting a new company record. The company also provided a stronger outlook for the fourth quarter, stating that HBM4 has entered a phase of high-volume shipments, HBM4E is under development, and mass production is expected in 2027. Micron's financial report for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026
Another advantage of Micron comes from its domestic manufacturing footprint in the United States. The company plans to expand its U.S. DRAM capacity, which will not only help reduce supply chain risks but may also secure policy support and long-term orders from large customers.
However, Micron's stock price has fully reflected the industry's recovery and growing AI demand. In the future, the market will not only look at revenue growth, but also on whether profit margins can be maintained, whether capital expenditures spiral out of control, and when new capacity will come online. If the company's performance only meets expectations, the stock price may still come under pressure.
SanDisk: Betting on NAND and Enterprise SSDs
SanDisk's business focus is on NAND Flash and SSDs. Compared to Micron and SK Hynix, SanDisk has less direct involvement in HBM, but is more sensitive to NAND prices and enterprise SSD demand.
SanDisk's revenue for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 reached $5.95 billion, a 97% quarter-over-quarter increase, with data center business up 233%. The company expects fourth-quarter revenue of $7.75 billion to $8.25 billion. SanDisk's financial report for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026
AI data centers need more than just GPUs and HBMs. The datasets generated by model training need to be stored long-term, inference services need to frequently read model files, and caching systems require larger SSD capacity. As long as data centers continue to expand, enterprise SSDs have strong growth potential.
SanDisk's characteristic is its high earnings flexibility. When NAND prices rise, company profits may grow rapidly; However, when supply and demand shift, profits may also decline rapidly. It is more like a highly volatile storage price target, suitable for investors who are optimistic about the NAND cycle and can also tolerate larger drawdowns.
SK Hynix: HBM is the most competitive feature
SK Hynix's strongest business at present remains HBM. In the first quarter of 2026, the company's revenue reached 52.58 trillion KRW, operating profit reached 37.61 trillion KRW, and an operating margin of 72%, setting a new record. SK Hynix's Q1 2026 financial report
SK Hynix has advantages in HBM products, customer relationships, and mass production experience. As AI applications expand from model training to real-time inference, the company's growth has also begun to extend from HBM to server DRAM, eSSD, and other high-capacity storage products.
But competition from HBM is intensifying. Micron and Samsung are both increasing capacity and yield, and customers may also reduce procurement risks by bringing in more suppliers. SK Hynix's current high profit margins are built on technological leadership and tight supply. If competitors close the gap or HBM prices begin to fall, the company's valuation could face double pressure.My mom's colleague spent all her pension money on Bitcoin, and now she treats us to meals every day

Funding rates show that BTC and ETH remain in bearish territory
What does that mean?
That is, the long seller pays the short seller
This shows that most people in the market are still bearish
But strangely, BTC not only didn't fall this week but actually rose by 0. 6%
Then guess what
This kind of "bearish but not falling" market is actually the most challenging for people
If your analysis tells you you should go long
But market sentiment has consistently been bearish
Which one would you believe?
From my own experience,
Follow the data, not emotions
5 buy signals versus 0 sell signals
This data is not a lie
Although ETFs are seeing 225M outflows
But BTC prices did not fall
This indicates that OTC and spot buying orders are taking over
This is a signal that institutions are quietly accumulating funds
There's also a point of psychological struggle
The BitMart incident escalated over the weekend
The CEO said he was also notified to suspend operations
The MSX founder wants to acquire it again
This chaos actually shows that some people are picking up bargains at low prices
Those who dare to take the market during panic are often the big winners
So my judgment is
Don't let your emotions lead this position away emotionally
If funding rates are bearish≠ prices will fall
Sometimes, when everyone is bearish, that's actually the best window to build a position

评论区聊聊，你们觉得这波反弹能持续吗？还是说只是暴风雨前的宁静？ Tech giants collectively pull back: Why did these stocks all fall today?
Looking at the market today, a glaring red color was a stark display—Micron Technology (MU) plunged over 7%, Intel (INTC) plunged 12%, SanDisk (SNDK) fell nearly 11%, Tesla (TSLA) also fell 2.2%, and even Nvidia (NVDA) couldn't stay unscathed, slipping nearly 1%. Both the semiconductor and new energy vehicle sectors have cooled off. In my view, this adjustment is an inevitable profit-taking + sector rotation. Since the beginning of this year, AI concept stocks have surged dramatically, with chip giants like Nvidia already exhausting some of their optimistic expectations. Recently, the market has begun to worry that AI capital expenditure growth may slow down, with Micron and Intel, as representatives of memory and traditional chips, naturally bearing the brunt. Intel's biggest drop may reflect not only industry pressure but also ongoing market doubts about its competitiveness and transformation progress. Tesla, on the other hand, was dragged down by overall weakness in its new energy vehicle sector, with delivery data and Robotaxi narratives temporarily struggling to boost confidence. Looking deeper, this is the normal breath of a high-valuation sector. Tech stocks have risen so fiercely that capital needs a breather, and shifting to other undervalued sectors is also reasonable. On the macro front, interest rate expectations, inflation data, or geopolitical factors may also exacerbate the decline in short-term risk appetite. Personal view: Short-term pullbacks shouldn't be overly pessimistic, especially for NVIDIA, whose fundamentals remain strong and long-term AI demand remains. What truly needs to be watched out are Intel and some follower stocks; if there is no substantial improvement, the correction could be even deeper. But for high-quality stocks, this is often a "shakeout" rather than a "trend reversal."Changxin hasn't officially opened yet, but long and short positions on X are already fighting.

I compiled 31 tweets in both Chinese and English, checking issuance data, financial performance, industry news, pre-market prices, and market rumors one by one. I'm not going to guess a simple answer to a rise or fall first. What really needs to be answered is: How much is Changxin really worth? How was the 3 trillion yuan expectation formed? Which high-traffic news can be trusted? After the market opens, which data should we keep an eye on? 1. 31 tweets, but the most discussed topic isn't Changxin's technology. These 31 tweets are not a market-wide poll. I filter content with high pre-IPO views or those that represent a certain type of viewpoint. Among them, 20 tweets were in Chinese, and 11 were in English or other languages; 22 views exceeded 50,000, 14 views exceeded 100,000, and 9 exceeded 200,000. Categorizing them, the results are straightforward: - 10 discusses trading plans and retail sentiment; - 9 discusses valuation and pre-market prices; - 7 discussing companies and industries; - 5 are rumors or commercial promotions. Nearly two-thirds of the content discusses price, position, and "how much can be made?" What the company truly achieves is not the traffic center.

The numbers on the screen hovered between 64,590.5 and 63,806.4, as if gripped by the city's sticky summer night, moving up and down by less than a percentage. The 24-hour trading volume is about 168 million USDT, which is neither too large nor too small—just enough for the candlestick to draw a few lazy shadows. No one cried out, nor did anyone panic. Amid this nearly frozen market, a statistic was quietly broken: ten listed companies collectively hold over one million bitcoins.
A whole number threshold arrived silently. Strategy still holds the top spot—843,775 tokens, equivalent to about $58 billion at current prices. This figure itself carries a distant echo, reminiscent of the market turmoil when MicroStrategy first bought Bitcoin in the summer of 2020. In the years that followed, from El Salvador to pension funds, from spot ETF approvals to now SpaceX quietly holding over 18,000 shares and listing on Nasdaq just over a month ago. Bitcoin's institutionalized narrative is so thick that it's almost impossible to remember it was once just a white paper attachment in a cypherpunk mailbox.
But on the other side of the screen, the stock price curve tells a completely different story. Since 2026, Riot Platforms has risen 73%, Cleanspark 39%, and Mara Holdings 31%; Strategy, on the other hand, fell 40%, Metaplanet fell 49%, Twenty One Capital fell 48%, and Coinbase Global fell 31%. The largest positions saw the stock price drop the heaviest; The mining companies' rally also seems to be a response to a repricing of infrastructure value. The logic in between is unclear and should not be simplified to a single cause and effect. Maybe it's just leverage structure, cash flow pressure, market sentiment rotation, or just a long and ordinary revaluation in the summer.
Fragmented news from the outskirts flowed in. Bitcoin ETF weekly trading volume has fallen to its lowest level since October 2024, while Ethereum ETFs have just ended a five-day streak of inflows, but weekly net inflows are still extending—capital seems more willing to chase the latecomer momentum. On the other side, some addresses went long with 38.55 million USDT held for eighteen hours, but eventually closed their positions at the 1% stop-loss line, losing $368,000—clean and decisive, like a nap without a dream. There's no tragic sadness of heavy positions or the drama of shorting in reverse—it's just a string of numbers that automatically disappears after being touched at a certain threshold.
The entire market seems to have entered a subtle period of silence. Bitcoin's DeFi value locked edged up 0.72% near $4.394 billion, like the water level slowly rising after a rainy season, but showing no signs of surging. And that "one million coins" integer is itself just a statistical trick under some surface—no one really knows exactly how much Bitcoin these companies hold is long-term chips in cold wallets, how much is the underlying asset of derivatives, and how many could be reduced at any time due to financial report pressure.
The last such dull summer was in 2023, and the last was in 2019. In every cycle, summer always feels especially long. The list of holders changes, the cost of holding positions changes, and the relative strength of stock prices also changes. The only things that are less likely to change are Bitcoins themselves, which quietly lie on the chain, confirm every ten minutes, and occasionally trigger a temporary alarm in blockchain explorers due to a large transfer. They don't speak, nor do they care whether they are in the vault of a listed company or the wallet of an anonymous whale.
When the summer heat finally fades and autumn's volatility returns to the market, this holding list will likely feature new names and new numbers. Any structure that seems unshakable in the present is only temporary in the face of time. For those staring at the screen, the only thing to remember: the story isn't over yet, your position isn't settled, and history never guarantees.Trump's $1.4 billion crypto income is killing the CLARITY Act
The bill can't pass, and the culprit is Trump himself
The CLARITY Act most likely won't make it before the August recess.
It's not a technical issue, nor a vote count issue; it's Trump's own $1.4 billion crypto income stuck in the way.
Bloomberg reported today: Trump earned about $1.4 billion from meme coins and token businesses, which has now become the biggest obstacle to passing the bill. The Democrats are demanding stricter ethics rules—the president can't issue tokens while legislating under his own government's regulation.
The Republicans only have 53 seats in the Senate, so to reach 60 votes, they need to bring at least 7 Democrats on board. But the Democrats are holding onto Trump's crypto income, causing a deadlock.
On Polymarket, the probability of passage has dropped from 74% in May to about 33%. The market is voting with money.
The irony is that the TRUMP coin issued by Trump himself has now become the stumbling block preventing him from pushing the crypto bill forward. The coin you issued is blocking your own bill.
This drama is still unfolding. But one thing is certain: the bill most likely won't pass before the August recess.
Discuss in the comments: do you think Trump will sell his coins for the bill, or would he rather keep them even if the bill fails? $BTC $ETH July 26 | BTC Data Evening Report
BTC market
BTC is quoted near $64,450, with an intraday high of about $64,566 and a low of about $64,028, up about 0.8% in 24 hours. The price continues to fluctuate around $64,000–$65,000, yet to break out of the recent consolidation range.
ETF funds
On July 24, the US spot BTC ETF saw a total net outflow of about $240.1 million, marking the second consecutive trading day of net outflows; From July 23 to 24, the cumulative net outflow was approximately $465.2 million.
The previous seven consecutive trading days of capital inflows have been interrupted, and institutional funds have shifted from continuous inflows to continuous withdrawals in the short term.
On-chain Tokens (Address Calibration)
Based on the consecutive snapshots from July 25 to 26:
Less than 10 BTC: net decrease of about 65 BTC, latest total holdings about 3.4722 million BTC
10–100 BTC: Net increase of about 182 BTC, latest total holdings about 4.2324 million BTC
Above 100 BTC: net increase of about 108 BTC, latest total holdings about 12.3542 million BTC
Internal changes above 100 BTC:
100–1,000 BTC: Net decrease of about 1,904 BTC
1,000–10,000 BTC: net increase of about 1,878 BTC
10,000–100,000 BTC: Net increase of about 134 BTC
Over 100,000 BTC: Basically unchanged
Total holdings above 100 BTC increased by only 108 BTC, but internal migration was obvious, mainly reflected in a decrease in the 100–1,000 BTC range, while the above 1,000 BTC level increased.
BTC exchange
The latest public snapshot shows that the total BTC balance across all exchanges is about 2.7032 million, with a net outflow of approximately 3,075 BTC.
Exchange balances remain in net outflows, diverging from ETFs for two consecutive days of net outflows: on-chain tradable tokens have decreased, but traditional funding channels have weakened in the short term.
Contract data
BTC contract open interest is about $48.53 billion, 24-hour contract turnover is about $19.696 billion, spot trading is about $1.124 billion, and BTC contract liquidation is about $6.366 million.
Open interest remains at a relatively high level, but weekend trading volume and liquidations are not large, so there is currently no obvious concentrated deleveraging in the market.
Important news today
Next week, the Federal Reserve, Bank of Japan, and Bank of England will successively announce interest rate decisions. Meanwhile, Middle East developments pushed oil prices up to around $100 per barrel, energy prices renewed inflation expectations, and the market began to bet more on further rate hikes. High oil prices and expectations of high interest rates remain the most important external pressures for BTC in the near term.
BitMart announced the end of nine years of operations, with all trading halted on August 26 and officially shutting down on January 31, 2027; This is the second trading platform to announce its exit within a week, following BitMEX. BitMart previously reported a 24-hour turnover of about $1.6 billion, with consecutive exchange closures that may continue to affect market trust and capital concentration trends among small and medium-sized platforms.
Russia's largest bank, Sberbank, plans to establish crypto trading and custody infrastructure by December. Russia's new crypto trading, custody, and settlement rules will take effect in September, indicating that large traditional banks continue to enter the regulated crypto asset services sector, but the short-term direct impact on BTC liquidity is limited.
Next, let's focus on the main focus
Can BTC regain the $65,000 level and break through the recent resistance near $66,000?
Can ETFs resume net inflows after Monday's opening, or will continuous outflows expand further?
Will BTC exchanges continue to see net outflows, and whether addresses with 100–1,000 BTC will stop decreasing?
If oil prices remain near $100 and push U.S. Treasury yields higher, macro pressure on BTC is unlikely to ease significantly.
$BTC #星球日报 Bitcoin liquidity concentration: The altcoin season has not yet arrived; funds are circulating among a few coins
Has the current market formed a sustainable bullish structure, or is it driven solely by local leverage?
Core Fact: The original post clearly stated that the current market is not in an upward trend across the market, but rather liquidity circulating among limited coins. Funds are concentrated in a few tokens such as BTC, JELLYJELLY, OPG, SLX, LAB, BSB, ALLO, and CHIP, while a large number of altcoins like BEAT, EDGE, COAI, TRUMP, and RAVE are losing momentum. ETH, SOL, TAO, WLD, HYPE, DOGE, and ZEC are regarded as structural pillars, corresponding respectively to institutional capital, high beta risk appetite, AI narrative, risk appetite indicators, and retail investor rally pursuit.
Market structure changes: The core contradiction in current pricing is that BTC maintains liquidity anchoring at high levels, but the altcoins as a whole have not formed a synchronized rise. This has led to divergence in funding rates: BTC perpetual contract funding rates remain positive, but most altcoins have funding rates close to zero or even turned negative, indicating that leverage is more concentrated on BTC, with little sustained long position accumulation on the altcoin side. On the basis side, the BTC futures premium structure (Contango) still exists, but the margin has narrowed, suggesting the market is becoming more conservative in its outlook for forward gains.
Pricing transmission path: If BTC continues to consolidate sideways at the current level, it will be difficult for funds to spread outward to altcoins, because once liquidity is absorbed by BTC, altcoins will need to rely on lower valuations or stronger narratives to attract incremental capital. Conversely, if BTC experiences a significant pullback, it could trigger a bullish stamp, leading to concentrated leveraged liquidations and dragging down mainstream coins like ETH and SOL, resulting in a systemic correction. Among altcoins, highly liquid assets like JELLYJELLY and OPG may remain relatively strong during BTC consolidation, but stalled coins like BEAT and EDGE are likely to continue falling if they fail to receive new capital injections.
Biased bullish path and conditions: If the BTC funding rate remains positive and the basis widens again, it indicates that leveraged long positions continue to increase positions, and the market may be entering a localized trend continuation. At this point, it is important to observe whether JELLYJELLY, OPG, and others are experiencing sustained rallies after increased trading volume, and whether the stagnant coins are bottoming out with increased volume and stabilizing the decline. Bearish path and conditions: If BTC's funding rate quickly turns negative or the basis narrows below parity, it suggests that bull confidence is breaking down and may trigger chain liquidations. At the same time, be wary of the accelerated decline of stagnant coins, which could lead to a collapse in overall risk appetite on the counterfeit side.
Risk warning: The current market structure heavily relies on BTC liquidity anchorage. If BTC loses key support levels, it could trigger market-wide deleveraging. If stagnant coins continue to shrink in volume, it will be difficult to form an effective rebound.
$BTC $ETH $SOL $HYPE $DOGE #流动性集中 #杠杆结构 #山寨币分化📊 $LIT Quick Overview of Liquidations
Scale of liquidations
· 1 hour: $50.73
· 4 hours: $2,484.51
· 12 hours: $5,236.94
· 24 hours: $27,600
Mostly and bearish distribution
Cycle: Bull liquidation, short liquidation, long position
1h $0 $50.73 0%
4h $2,428.02 $56.50 97.7%
12h $5,022.43 $214.50 95.9%
24h $13,600 $14,000 49.3%
Duokong interpretation
Short liquidation in 1 hour was $50.73, long position was zero, very small scale; 4-hour and 12-hour long liquidations continue to crush short positions (accounting for 95.9%~97.7%), with prices continuing to fall; However, within 24 hours, short liquidations at $14,000 narrowly overtook the market (accounting for 50.7%), reversing the direction within 12-24 hours and turning into a short squeeze and upward trend. Ultimate winner: Bulls—showing a pattern of "early long selling→ closing short reversal."
Time distribution
· 1 hour accounts for 0.18% of 24 hours
· 4 hours accounts for 9.0% of 24 hours
· 12 hours accounts for 18.97% of 24 hours
The distribution of liquidations is obvious: the first 12 hours accounted for only 18.97%, while the 24-hour total volume is 5.27 times that of the 12-hour period, indicating that short squeezes surged fiercely between the 12-24 hours (about $22,400 in the last 12 hours, accounting for 81.0% of the whole day). Currently, the market is in the stage of a short squeeze outbreak, with concentrated liquidations on short positions and closing sessions, so attention should be paid to its sustainability.
A one-sentence explanation
$LIT 24-hour short liquidation $14,000, accounting for 50.7% of the total, reversed direction, and the bulls ultimately prevailed.
🔥 Market Barometer | July 24th
Today's three hot topics point to the same theme: the cost of AI, regulatory stalls, and the breathing on the edge of the geopolitical cliff.
📊 Google and Tesla: The "bill" for the AI feast has arrived
Two financial reports have revealed the harsh truth behind AI narratives.
Google beats expectations but comes at a heavy cost: total revenue of $119.8 billion, up 24% year-on-year; Google Cloud revenue was $24.77 billion, an 82% year-on-year increase. However, capital expenditures reached $44.9 billion, and free cash flow turned negative for the first time to -$5.9 billion. After hours, it once fell nearly 5%.
Tesla's revenue growth without profit growth: revenue of $28.24 billion, up 26% year-on-year; However, operating profit was only $398 million, a year-on-year plunge of 57%, with an operating margin of just 1.4%. Free cash flow turned negative for the first time in over two years. It fell more than 4% in after-hours trading.
Signal: Google's AI has formed a closed revenue loop in its cloud business; Meanwhile, Tesla's Robotaxi and Optimus remain at the "story" stage. The market is punishing AI narratives that are concept-heavy but lack cash flow.
📜 CLARITY Act Stalled: A $1.4 Billion Ethical Dilemma
Regulatory hopes for the crypto industry are fading. Although Senate Republicans released updated text and added a morality clause, seven Democratic senators collectively vetoed it. Senate Majority Leader Toon Toon made it clear that the bill is unlikely to pass before the August 7 recess.
Fundamental obstacle: The roughly $1.4 billion gains Trump gained from crypto business became the biggest obstacle. The Democrats are demanding stricter ethical clauses to prevent the president from continuing to profit from the crypto industry under government oversight.
Polymarket forecasts show that the probability of passing within the year has plummeted from over 80% to 37%. Missing the August window and dragging into the autumn elections will greatly reduce the chances of passing in 2026.
🚢 U.S. military pauses airstrikes: a breather on the edge of a geopolitical cliff
On July 25 local time, Trump ordered the U.S. military not to launch new airstrikes on Iran that day, ending a 13-day continuous daily strike campaign.
A few hours before the airstrike pause, the Omani delegation had already arrived in Tehran to begin negotiations to resume navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, reportedly making progress. Brent crude had previously surpassed $100 per barrel, and if negotiations break through, oil prices are expected to retreat.
Signal: This is a tactical pause—to leave room for diplomacy, but the U.S. military is still preparing contingency plans for resuming strikes.
💎 Summary
Three events outline the core contradictions in the current market: The bill for AI is approaching—Google and Tesla are telling the market that, for the first time ever, negative cash flow is heating up faster than expected; The regulatory window is closing—the $1.4 billion ethical dilemma makes it hard for the CLARITY Act to pass within the year; How long the pause in the geography lasts depends on the success or failure of Oman's mediation. #财报观察员: Who can truly understand the real answer sheet from Google and Tesla this time?

At the end of the day, logic remains.
🧭 Today's panorama
→ BTC $64,554 24h: +0.86% · ETH $1,888 24h: +1.71% · SOL $74.92
→ Today's Volatility: BTC 0.64K ($63,996-$64,637)
→ Trading volume: BTC $1.87B · Funding rate: BTC 0.001% / ETH 0.001%
📊 Structural changes
• OI: $2.035B (31,524 BTC), no significant increase or decrease throughout the day
• Funding rate: Both currencies have rates at <0.0011%, at an absolute low with no directional pressure
• BTC Premium: -0.055% (slight discount), bears slightly taking the initiative but showing no aggressive intent
🔥 Today's highlights
• #1 DCA (BSC) +9.11% — 24-hour gain over 4000%, but MCap only $184K, 42% of shares share the same source, showing obvious signs of manipulation
• #2 PONS (XLayer) +5.59% — MCap $54.6 million, one of the largest memes in the XLayer ecosystem, saw a slight rise today
• TRUMP2028 (Solana) +1.29% — 5,306 token-holding addresses, maintaining popularity but with modest gains
• BullPad (Solana) -27.47% — Previously surging memes experienced a deep pullback today, a typical "catch knife scene"
⚡ Smart money flows
• Smart money on Solana today mainly focused on SalaryCat (bought at $1,487), but has already sold 70%, showing a clear pattern of fast in and out of stock
• Justice For Sara Gilson (Sara) was chased by 10 smart money addresses, with 82% having sold out
• Overall, Smart Money was doing short-term harvesting in the Solana meme layer with a "grab a hand, then exit" strategy, with no intention to hold overnight
💡 Shadows recoil
BTC followed a standard contracting sideways movement today—$64K spent the day within 40 points. OI remains unchanged, rates are flat, and premiums are discounted but only slightly increased, indicating that both bulls and bears are controlling their positions. Guessing the direction at this position is no different from guessing a coin; the bulls haven't exerted momentum, and the bears haven't broken through.
Memes on the hot topic side are lively, but the DCA market with 42% of the same source is clearly a trap—whoever chases the most here is caught by a flying knife. Smart money showed no intention of staying overnight at the Solana meme level today; after the rally, it left. This sentiment transmitted to the main board signaled "no incremental funds entering the market."
Tonight, I chose to continue observing. If BTC can shrink above $64K and grind for another day, the structure would actually be healthier. No matter how sharp or down, I won't take it.

#暗影萨满🔥 From 46 to 142, then back to 79! $OKB This wave isn't a pullback; it's like rubbing the chives down and handing over a cigarette!
Guys, who wouldn't be confused by this $OKB script from July?
📉 At the beginning of the month (that needle in early July): still lying flat at 46 cuts, playing dead.
🔥 Then OKX set off a fire: burning 278.9 million $OKB, permanently welding the total at 21 million.
🚀 The price rocketed straight in: soaring to $142.88, a 193% massive syllable sold out all the bears.
💀 And then? : Fell back to around 79, and has been grinding for almost three weeks. With 24-hour trading volume shrinking to just over 50 million, retail investors are all asking, "Is this over?" ”
#OKX.ai: One person is a world-class company
---
🧬 Let me tell you, this trend is wild, and behind it are three hard logics clashing:
1. Supply side: OKX has fully transcribed Bitcoin's scarcity scenario
The total supply of 21 million was locked, and the smart contract completely blocked both the additional issuance and manual burning. X Layer's gas is still burning in small amounts. What does this mean? OKB won't be reborn; it will only become fewer. How many exchanges have you seen in history with fixed total supply tokens?
2. Demand Side: Bet on the entire ecosystem, fail or die
OKX cut OKT Chain and bet all on X Layer (Polygon CDK's zkEVM). OKB becomes the only fuel in the entire ecosystem + fee discounts + Jumpstart tickets. ICE (NYSE's real father) even came in to take a stand. This isn't just empty promises; it's just putting on a stage.
3. Market Volume: A typical shakeout after a surge, waiting for the big players to speak
The 50-day moving average at $79 is holding down, the 200-day moving average at $88 is holding down, and the RSI at 56 is lukewarm. This is the kind of being repeatedly rubbed in the middle, washing away those who are uncertain.
#OKX星球话题来啦
---
🗣️ My rough summary of the summary:
If you shout "reset to zero," wake up. An exchange token with a total supply of 21 million + full ecosystem gas is unprecedented in history.
If you're shouting "Breaking 200 soon," don't even dream about it. Before BTC doesn't cooperate and X Layer doesn't have daily active users, the grueling 79-82 range will have to stay for a while.
What stage is it now?
The Fear and Greed Index once dropped to 23 (extreme fear), retail investors are cutting losses, and large players are hesitating. A typical "no chase when prices rise, no buying when prices fall" — a twisted phase.
OKB is no longer a junk platform coin; it is a monster forcibly transformed by OKX into an "exchange-style BTC." In the short term, it will be dragged by the broader market; in the medium term, it depends on whether X Layer has real users; in the long term, it depends on whether the 21 million figure is enough to tell a story.
👇 Now the question arises:
Do you think OKB really dropped completely this round and is preparing for a second firing, or will they fake a fall and continue sawing wood at 78-82?
#交易之声: Your experience deserves to be heard
Chart analysis:
1. Long-term trend: Previously completed a deep bear market decline from a high of 104.63, with a maximum drawdown exceeding 30%.
2. Short-term structure: After bottoming out at 70, a recovery rebound began, and the current price has broken above all short-term moving averages, indicating a recovery in short-term bullish momentum
3. Resistance and support: First resistance above at 85, support below at 81-82 (MA5/MA10 moving averages)📊 JUST IN: Saylor Hints At More Bitcoin, But The Reality Is Sharper Now
"We're gonna need another color." Classic Saylor confidence, posted with a dashboard of Strategy's 843,775 BTC. But the numbers behind that swagger tell a harder story than the meme suggests.
📉 Where it stands:
Holdings: 843,775 BTC
Average cost: $75,653
Unrealized loss: about 14.8%, roughly $9.5 billion
Q2 digital asset loss: $8.32 billion, mostly unrealized
Here's what actually changed, and it matters. The "never sell" narrative is over. Strategy sold 3,588 BTC in early July for about $216 million, using the proceeds to fund preferred stock dividends and rebuild its dollar reserve. This followed a formal Bitcoin monetization program launched June 29 that lets the company sell up to $1.25 billion of BTC to cover obligations. A company built on the promise of relentless accumulation is now selling to pay its bills. That is a real shift, not a headline.
None of this means the long-term thesis is broken, and that's the honest takeaway. These losses are unrealized, the CFO says the reserve could cover net debt even if BTC fell 91%, and Strategy has still added coins across the cycle. The lesson worth borrowing is conviction and dollar-cost averaging over years, using capital you won't need tomorrow. The lesson to avoid is the leverage, the forced sales, and treating one confident tweet as a buy signal.
What to watch:
Whether Strategy keeps selling under the monetization program or resumes buying.
The health of its preferred stock and any pressure on MSTR shares, down 77% from the high.
A confident post from the biggest holder is not a catalyst. Respect the conviction, watch the balance sheet, because structure decides who survives a bear market.
Conviction that pays off, or a model meeting its limits?

Looking at these death lists, there are basically two types of deaths:
1⃣ Fake demand is exposed; in a bull market, just start financing with infrastructure or aggregators, but in a bear market, it's clear there is no commercial closed loop.
2⃣ Leverage backfired, and Coinyin, which seemed stable as a leveraged method, was also wiped out. It could have jumped on this AI wave and sold at a good price, but unfortunately, it died before dawn.

12h $11,400 $180,200 5.9%
24h $93,900 $480,200 16.4%
Duokong interpretation
100% of the 1-hour long liquidations ($3,530.82) were made, but the scale was so small that it could be ignored; From the 4-hour onward, short liquidation suddenly crushed the bulls (accounting for 90.4%), initiating a short squeeze rally; The 12-hour short position ratio reached as high as 94.1%, the most intense short squeeze of the day; Within 24 hours, short positions were liquidated at $480,200 (83.7%), with short squeezes continuing into the later stages. Ultimate winner: Bulls—showing a pattern of "short-term disturbances → persistent extreme short squeezes," with bears suffering devastating liquidation.
Time distribution
· 1 hour accounts for 0.62% of 24 hours
· 4 hours accounts for 8.54% of 24 hours
· 12 hours accounts for 33.38% of 24 hours
Liquidations are concentrated in the 12-hour cycle (about one-third), but the total 24-hour volume is 3.00 times that of the 12-hour period, indicating a sharp escalation of short squeezes in the 12-24 hours (about $382,500 in the last 12 hours, accounting for 66.6% of the day). Currently, the market is at the peak of a short squeeze, with bears suffering heavy losses, but after extreme gains, caution is needed to be aware of the risk of sharp pullbacks.
A one-sentence explanation
$ZEC 24-hour short liquidation at $480,200, accounting for 83.7% of the total, with short squeezes dominating and upgrades in the later stages, the bulls winning decisively.

That’s a 9x jump from last year. Crypto is now his largest source of income.

ETF funds entering the market have narrowed down, indicating spot stocks aren't as aggressive. $DXY Heads are stubbornly suppressed by risk assets, $GLD still in the red, haven't even escaped all the hedging funds, just keeping a backup plan.
A barrage of analysis is fierce as a tiger, but whether the market rises or falls, Trump is still watched. Don't rush to bet; wait for clearer signals. Whoever shows weakness first will set the direction first. Let's wait and see.
#以太坊验证者退出队列已降至零Recently, market sentiment has warmed up, and $SHIB has seen a strong rebound. In just two trading days, the price started around $0.0000042, reaching a high of $0.0000058, with a maximum increase of nearly 36% during the range. Its market capitalization rose by about $1 billion simultaneously, reassembling it among the top 30 crypto assets by market cap. Many people simply attribute this round of rally to MEME sector rotational speculation, but considering on-chain, tokenomics, and capital flow data, the market-driven logic is far more complex than surface sentiment. First, let's review SHIB's underlying token framework, which is the foundation for understanding all market trends. The initial total supply of SHIB was 1,000 trillion, with 500 trillion transferred to the Vitalik burn address during launch, laying the foundation for the project's deflationary nature. As of the latest Shibburn on-chain statistics, the total amount burned has reached 410.84 trillion, accounting for 41.08% of the original supply, permanently deprived of the circulating market; Currently, the circulating market supply remains at 589.16 trillion coins. Many market participants tend to misunderstand that continuous burning will quickly cause supply shortages. Objective data clearly shows that early burns exceeding 400 trillion were concentrated in 2021, a one-time large-scale burn, with daily community burns relatively limited in the past year. On the eve of this rally, the daily regular burn volume mostly stayed in the millions of tokens, but during the market kickoff, the 24-hour burn rate surged by up to 1400%, with 6.75 million tokens burned in a single day, and the burning frenzy rapidly heating up.Many players are used to speculating on MEME and AI hot coins, so switching to $OKB easily leads to pitfalls. They often wonder: why does the hot market keep surging, but OKB often remains lukewarm? Today, let's break down and talk about the underlying gameplay of this platform coin. Let's start with the underlying background: OKB is the native token of the OKX exchange, and has long been more than just a simple exchange points. In the early days, its main functions were fee deductions and participation in new token subscriptions on platforms; A major upgrade followed, with a permanent lock of 21 million tokens, completely closing the new minting channel, and making it the native gas token of the X Layer 2 network. Simply put, OKB has a dual value foundation: on one hand, it relies on centralized exchange transaction fee buyback and burning; on the other, it undertakes the development needs of the second-layer public chain ecosystem. Compared to altcoins that tell stories out of thin air, they have real and continuous business cash flow as a foundation, which is the fundamental reason for their stronger resilience during bear markets. Let's clarify the core logic of the current market: hot small coins rely on speculative funds for short-term rallying, causing sentiment to surge continuously; But OKB's price is tightly tied to two things: the exchange's overall trading volume and the large-scale ecosystem event launched by the official team. During market frenzy, funds favor highly elastic theme coins and look down on platform coins with slow paces; But once the market falls into volatility and market risks rise, funds start clustering together with platform coins to hedge risks. This creates its unique trending feature: it's hard to surge in prices, and big drops often lag behind the knockoffs. It's hard to see a single-day main upward wave of 20 to 30 points; more of it is a volatile upward movement and repeated pull-up cycles.

Duokong interpretation
Short liquidations account for 100% of the cycles, while long liquidations account for zero, indicating an extreme unilateral short squeeze upward trend. In the first 12 hours, liquidation was extremely small (about $154~$158), with mild short squeezes initiating; 24-hour liquidation surged to $37,600, with short squeeze conditions exploding in 12-24 hours. Ultimate winner: Bulls—Bearish and late trading face concentrated and devastating liquidation.

· 4 hours accounts for 0.42% of 24 hours
· 12 hours accounts for 0.42% of 24 hours
Liquidation distribution is extremely late: the first 12 hours accounted for only 0.42%, while the total 24-hour volume is about 238 times that of the 12-hour period, indicating that the short squeeze market exploded in the latter half. Currently, the market is at the peak of a short squeeze, with concentrated liquidations on short positions at the close, but after extreme gains, caution is needed regarding the risk of sharp corrections.

$OKB 24-hour short liquidation at $37,600, accounting for 100%, followed by explosive upgrades in the following 12 hours, with bulls winning decisively.
🔥 Market Barometer | July 24th
Today's three hot topics point to the same theme: the cost of AI, regulatory stalls, and the breathing on the edge of the geopolitical cliff.
📊 Google and Tesla: The "bill" for the AI feast has arrived
Two financial reports have revealed the harsh truth behind AI narratives.
Google beats expectations but comes at a heavy cost: total revenue of $119.8 billion, up 24% year-on-year; Google Cloud revenue was $24.77 billion, an 82% year-on-year increase. However, capital expenditures reached $44.9 billion, and free cash flow turned negative for the first time to -$5.9 billion. After hours, it once fell nearly 5%.
Tesla's revenue growth without profit growth: revenue of $28.24 billion, up 26% year-on-year; However, operating profit was only $398 million, a year-on-year plunge of 57%, with an operating margin of just 1.4%. Free cash flow turned negative for the first time in over two years. It fell more than 4% in after-hours trading.
Signal: Google's AI has formed a closed revenue loop in its cloud business; Meanwhile, Tesla's Robotaxi and Optimus remain at the "story" stage. The market is punishing AI narratives that are concept-heavy but lack cash flow.
📜 CLARITY Act Stalled: A $1.4 Billion Ethical Dilemma
Regulatory hopes for the crypto industry are fading. Although Senate Republicans released updated text and added a morality clause, seven Democratic senators collectively vetoed it. Senate Majority Leader Toon Toon made it clear that the bill is unlikely to pass before the August 7 recess.
Fundamental obstacle: The roughly $1.4 billion gains Trump gained from crypto business became the biggest obstacle. The Democrats are demanding stricter ethical clauses to prevent the president from continuing to profit from the crypto industry under government oversight.
Polymarket forecasts show that the probability of passing within the year has plummeted from over 80% to 37%. Missing the August window and dragging into the autumn elections will greatly reduce the chances of passing in 2026.
🚢 U.S. military pauses airstrikes: a breather on the edge of a geopolitical cliff
On July 25 local time, Trump ordered the U.S. military not to launch new airstrikes on Iran that day, ending a 13-day continuous daily strike campaign.
A few hours before the airstrike pause, the Omani delegation had already arrived in Tehran to begin negotiations to resume navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, reportedly making progress. Brent crude had previously surpassed $100 per barrel, and if negotiations break through, oil prices are expected to retreat.
Signal: This is a tactical pause—to leave room for diplomacy, but the U.S. military is still preparing contingency plans for resuming strikes.
💎 Summary
Three events outline the core contradictions in the current market: The bill for AI is approaching—Google and Tesla are telling the market that, for the first time ever, negative cash flow is heating up faster than expected; The regulatory window is closing—the $1.4 billion ethical dilemma makes it hard for the CLARITY Act to pass within the year; How long the pause in the geography lasts depends on the success or failure of Oman's mediation. #财报观察员: Who can truly understand the real answer sheet from Google and Tesla this time?

#美军暂停对伊空袭, negotiations on the opening of the strait made progress $BTC futures demand is increasing further. The positive value of futures demand indicates that real demand is emerging.
However, spot demand remains negative. Total demand is negative because the negative value of spot demand is larger.
A real rally must be accompanied by real demand. Currently, real demand is occurring in the futures market but futures market is still negative demand.
A real rally will begin when real demand emerges in the spot market.Is this really the true "Altcoin Season," or just another emotional pump "noise"?👀
On the surface, the green boards turning red and localized surges have sharply heated up the market's FOMO (fear of missing out) sentiment. However, the true hallmark of altcoin season is **a broad market rally with liquidity spreading comprehensively**. What we are experiencing now is merely a **brutal rotation** of existing funds among a very limited number of tokens, rather than an overall expansion of incremental capital.
Main funds are highly concentrated in a few top assets, while the vast majority of tokens cannot sustain continuous buying support.
### 📊 Liquidity camp division and chip structure
* **Strong capital absorption zone (stock focus)**: $BTC, $JELLYJELLY, $OPG, $SLX, $LAB, $BSB, $ALLO, $CHIP
* **Momentum maintenance zone (localized heat)**: $MEME, $EDEN, $HUMA, $ZKP, $METIS
* **Momentum decline/stagnation zone (lack of buying)**: $BEAT, $EDGE, $COAI, $TRUMP, $RAVE, $SPACE, $SOPH, $IP, $AVNT, $ZAMA, $OFC, $PIEVERSE, $VIRTUAL, $ACU, $H, $MEGA
### 🏛️ Core asset anchors and value reassessment
| Asset | Market Role and Positioning | Latest Status / Reference Benchmark |
|---|---|---|
| **$BTC** | **King of Liquidity 👑** | Currently at **$64,530** (up 0.92% intraday), total crypto market cap remains at **$2.18 trillion**, still the absolute anchor of the market. |
| **$ETH** | **Institutional Application Playground** | Currently near **$1,880**, increasing staking locks continue to reduce spot selling pressure. |
| **$SOL** | **High Beta Elastic Bet** | Ecosystem activity remains high, still the primary battlefield for seeking excess returns beyond the broader market. |
| **$TAO / $WLD** | **AI Narrative Dual Leaders** | Deeply tied to OpenAI and the latest dynamics in the global semiconductor supply chain. |
| **$HYPE** | **Risk Appetite Barometer** | Core indicator measuring the flow of high-leverage and high-risk appetite capital. |
| **$DOGE / $ZEC** | **Retail Sentiment and Privacy Battle** | Reflects the fluctuations of retail risk appetite and privacy avoidance sentiment like a mirror. |
### 📰 Macro drivers and news catalysts
1. **Regulatory bill delay (#CLARITYActStalled):**
The U.S. Congress's "CLARITY Act" (H.R. 3633) on crypto market structure has been postponed in the Senate agenda until after the August recess due to conflicts of interest and strict ethics review clauses. This policy uncertainty makes large compliant institutions more cautious about fully deploying altcoins.
2. **Temporary easing of geopolitical tensions (#USIranStrikePause):**
The U.S. has paused strikes on specific Middle East facilities with no new military escalations, easing macro risk-off sentiment. The oil price decline provides breathing room for the crypto market.
> **The harsh truth:** True altcoin season only arrives when liquidity spreads fully and market participation explodes synchronously across all sectors, not when just 5 tokens dominate the headlines.
>
Until then: **Strictly control risk, follow capital flows, and decisively reject FOMO chasing.** 📈
#EarningsRealityCheck #CLARITYActStalled #USIranStrikePause It's been four years since it was this quiet, guys. The ancient whales who entered in 2017 finally stopped selling their stocks. It's not that they won't smash, it's just that they can't move anymore. Those who should have run have already left. Just seeing the data, dormant $BTC activity has dropped to its lowest point since Q3 2022. What does that mean? Back in 2022, it had just crashed from 69,000, and everyone played dead together. Here it comes again. To be honest, this is more true than any technical indicator. Think about it: when $BTC surged to over 100,000 at the end of last year, OGs were selling like crazy, and all the coins that had been sitting in their wallets for seven or eight years were revived. After cashing in that wave of profits, they either have no stock left or only zero-cost positions left. With zero-cost $BTC, why are people in such a hurry? No rush to sell. This is the tacit understanding of the market. Large funds remain stagnant, while small funds run wild. While the altcoin season is having fun, mainstream coins are actually quite stable. I checked on-chain data, and in the past month, the number of old coins moving was pitifully low. Last time it was this quiet, what happened afterward? After four months of sideways movement, a major bullish candlestick broke through the sky. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying this time will be the same. But one thing is clear: selling pressure is really exhausting. When $BTC dropped a few months ago, I told them not to panic, and now I still say the same thing. If the big game really collapses, the OGs won't be this calm. They are the most sensitive and run faster than anyone. What does the collective pretend to be dead now mean? It means the real panic has not yet arrived. Brothers who are short sellers, think carefully—right in front of you is the most reluctant group of holders in the world. If they don't sell, where can you borrow coins to throw them away? Of course, a bull market doesn't come overnightWell-known trader Kla tweeted that Bitcoin's cycle is accelerating. In the previous cycle, it took only 476 days to go from bottom to record high, much faster than the previous two rounds. He expects this round to break the previous high ahead of the next halving.
To be honest, the trend of shortening cycles is already quite obvious. The reasons behind this are not hard to guess—institutional funds, ETFs, and macro liquidity are flowing in, causing the market to react much faster than before. Combined with social media and leverage tools, the speed of sentiment and price transmission is simply not on the same level. The old stereotype of "every four years a bull and bear" might really need to be changed now.
However, acceleration has two sides. On one hand, if you're still waiting for some "standard right-side signal," you might miss out on a significant rally in the blink of an eye; On the other hand, acceleration means a stronger pullback, and the probability of getting stuck after chasing highs rises sharply. So instead of getting caught up in left and right sides, it's better to manage your positions well, build positions in batches, set stop-losses, and don't let emotions run wild. As for his mention of "new highs before the halving," I think it's quite likely, but that doesn't mean a big pit won't be hit first. In short, focusing on macro data and capital flows is far more reliable than stubbornly stubbornly obsessing over historical patterns. 😂 📊 $XAUT Quick Overview of Liquidation

· 4 hours accounts for 0.54% of 24 hours
· 12 hours account for 14.2% of 24 hours
Liquidation distribution is extremely late: the first 12 hours accounted for only 14.2%, while the 24-hour total is 7.05 times the 12-hour volume, indicating a strong burst in the 12-24 hours (about $30,900 in the last 12 hours, accounting for 85.8% of the day). Currently, the market is in a bear-led sustained sharp decline, and in the short term, attention should be paid to technical recovery signals after oversold conditions.

#美军暂停对伊空袭, negotiations on the opening of the strait made progress SK Hynix
SK Hynix's stock price has fluctuated sharply, but the AI server has not been equipped with a single HBM block as a result.
SK Hynix is sending samples of 12-layer HBM4E to major customers and collaborating with NVIDIA on next-generation AI memory, expanding its growth strategy from HBM to AI DRAM, NAND, and enterprise-grade SSDs. AI computing power development remains a long-term tailwind, but the market is beginning to worry: whether current storage prices and profit margins are close to cycle highs, and whether price competition will resume after Samsung and Micron's expansions.
US ADRs have recently fluctuated sharply around $156, showing a clear premium over Korean common stocks, indicating investors are not only betting on companies but also paying for scarcity. Technically, focus on support at $150 to $153; if it falls below it, target $145; The main resistance above is $164 to $170.
SK Hynix's long-term logic hasn't disappeared, but the most dangerous short-term thing may be "good news everyone knows." Do you think this is a golden pit for AI memory, or a reminder before the storage cycle shifts?
$SKHY #SK海力士 #HBM #AIThe early rally of $ORDI truly ignited the first wave of BRC20 inscription booms, and during that rally, market liquidity was basically dominated by domestic players.
The scale is no longer what it used to be. Today, ORDI is no longer just a target for Chinese players; global Bitcoin ecosystem participants are closely watching its rise and fall. Especially now, with Rune $DOG continuing to weaken and narratives lacking, overseas funds will further solidify ORDI's position as the leading Bitcoin native asset.
But don't expect the market to start immediately; ORDI will continue to fluctuate and shake out, and another half year of grinding is a reasonable scenario. Even if a major bull market has not yet arrived, local hotspots within the sector will continue to emerge: emerging protocols and underlying platforms such as Alkanes, Subfrost, Tap-Nat, Radfi, and Bound will continue to generate phased opportunities.
The narrative of the track keeps iterating, with hot topics alternating between old and new, but ORDI, as the emotional anchor of the Bitcoin ecosystem, holds an unshakable position in the short term.Is the P/E ratio of Changxin Storage's IPO as high as 300? Is it still playable?
┈➤ Static P/E ratio for 2025
◆ #ChangxinStorage opens tomorrow, issue price 8.66,
◆ New shares 668,808.8608 million (accounting for 10% of total shares),
◆ Net profit attributable to the parent company at the end of 2015 was 1,874,859,400 yuan.
◆ According to A-share IPO standards, calculate the static P/E ratio for 2025:
PE = 8.66 * 668,808.8608 * 10 / 187,485.94 = 308.92
But this is static data at the end of 2025; the market may and should calculate and value based on dynamic data.
┈➤ Rolling P/E ratio from Q2 2025 to Q1 2026
◆ Net profit attributable to the parent company from 25Q2 to 26Q1
= Full year 2025 + Q1 2026 - Q1 2025
= 187,485.94 + 2,476,203.15 - (-155,902.79)
= 2,819,591.88
◆ Calculate the rolling P/E ratio based on IPO price
PE-TTM【25Q2~26Q1】
= 8.66 * 668,808.8608 * 10 / 2,819,591.88
= 20.54
┈➤ Rolling P/E ratio from Q3 2025 to Q2 2026 (conservative estimate)
Net profit attributable to the parent company for the first half of 2026 is between 5,000,000 and 5,700,000; applying the principle of prudence, take the lower limit.
◆ Net profit attributable to the parent company from 25Q3 to 26Q2
= Full year 2025 + first half of 2026 - first half of 2025
= 187,485.94 + 5,000,000 - (-233,205.82)
= 5,420,691.76
◆ Calculate the rolling P/E ratio based on IPO price
PE-TTM【25Q3~26Q2】
= 8.66 * 668,808.8608 * 10 / 5,420,691.76
= 10.68
┈➤ Final notes
Cambricon's current P/E is 285, highest 371,
Hygon Information's current P/E is 267, highest 315,
First, some friends compare Changxin Storage with Hynix, but they are actually not comparable.
Because there are differences between markets, Hynix as the leading storage company has a P/E lower than Micron $MU and even SanDisk $SNDK. This is due to differences in environment and sentiment between the Korean and US stock markets.
Therefore, Changxin Storage should not be compared with Hynix. Instead, it can be referenced against AI stocks in the A-share market,
Cambricon's current P/E is 285, highest 371,
Hygon Information's current P/E is 267, highest 315.
Second, calculating Changxin Storage's P/E based on 2025 year-end profits yields 308.9.
However, the market may value it based on updated data.
Based on 25Q2~26Q1, the rolling P/E is 20.54. Based on a conservative estimate for 25Q3~26Q2, the rolling P/E is 10.68.
So theoretically, Changxin Storage still has some room to rise after opening.
Third, the overall trend of the storage sector is currently uncertain whether it has bottomed out.
Fourth, Changxin Storage's main product is DRAM, which may have weaker rigid demand from AI compared to HBM.
Fifth, Changxin Storage was still in a loss state in the first half of 2025, with a sharp profit surge in 2026; whether this rapid growth can be sustained requires time to prove.
I haven't played big A-shares, so I don't have much say, but theoretically Changxin Storage should be fine up to 17 (PE-TTM【25Q3~26Q2】about 20).
Optimistically, it might reach around 40 (PE-TTM【25Q3~26Q2】about 50).
Extremely optimistically, it might exceed 70 or even reach 80 (PE-TTM【25Q3~26Q2】close to 100).
The large valuation difference is caused by the huge profit gap between 2025 and 2026 for Changxin Storage; whether this growth trend is a short-term burst or will continue long-term is still uncertain.Guys, YGG rose 4.21% today, currently priced at $0.01854. Behind this bullish candlestick, the core catalyst comes from expectations of a strategic restructuring of the project: on July 7, YGG officially announced the closure of its game publishing division YGG Play, laying off 35 employees, and games like LOL Land will officially delaunch on July 31. This move is not a project crisis, but rather a shift in focus to AI game behavior data services, with player behavior datasets usable for AI model training, and the market speculating on its long-term potential to enter the AI data track. Technical Aspects: Support at 0.0185-0.0187; resistance above is seen at 0.0192/0.0200/0.0210, with the previous high at 0.0212 forming strong resistance; Below is a key defensive position at 0.0175. Core risk: Trading volume heavily depends on the futures market, with contract size significantly higher than spot trading. Leverage funds dominate the market, making the structure fragile and causing amplified volatility. With only a few days left until YGG Play officially shuts down on July 31, the market is weighing the narrative expectations of transformation, and caution is needed to watch out for selling pressure that may materialize after the event materializes. Key point: Currently, the AI data business is still in the strategic planning stage and has no revenue from implementation; At the same time, YGG tokens do not have the capability to capture business revenue. These are event-driven, high-volatility short-term targets, with the bottom line of the game being fast in and out. Do not mistake short-term thematic rebounds for trend reversals; strictly manage positions and risks. Personal market views今天看到 BitMex 和 BitMart 这两家交易所相继停止运营，有点唏嘘。这一年多多慢熊的过程中，已经有很多web3 的项目在相继消失或者换皮，市场上的热钱也在逐渐流向 ai 领域
对于这两家交易所在如此巧合的情况下相继在同一周关停，我觉得又是个原因：
1. 流动性在向头部交易所集中，大多韭菜和巨鲸通常都会选择盘口最深，滑点最低，对手方最多的平台。流动性越差，用户就会越少，用户越少，用户就会进一步下降，然后就会左脚踩右脚，进入死亡螺旋。
2. Hyperliquid这种链上交易平台正在蚕食 cex的市场份额。交易者在这些 dex 上可以自行托管资产，而且平台规则和储备也更透明。这让没有现货生态，或者机构托管业务的老牌合约交易所更加难以生存
3. 合规成本上升，以前那种开曼注册，服务全球的方法行不通了，欧洲和北美以及新加坡，香港的 web3 生态都开始走向规范化，在这个过程中就免不了出现像 bitmex 这种跟不上的因为合规问题不得不停止在欧洲地区的业务
4. 平台币开始反噬，这是另一个死亡螺旋：交易所经营困难时，平台币价格下跌，然后下跌导致用户减持，抵押品和财务储备编制，市场对平台的偿付能力产生怀疑，然后再次左脚踩右脚，直到跌入谷底

Today, according to the latest statistics released by RootData, by the end of 2026, 99 crypto projects have announced shutdowns, bankruptcy, or complete website shutdowns. The list includes many well-known names: from established contract derivatives platforms like BitMEX, BitMart, and AscendEX, to highly useful on-chain Kanban and wallet tools like Zapper, Parsec, Leap, Ctrl, and even DeFi protocols like Stream Finance and Altura.
After seeing these 99 death lists, to be honest, I don't feel pessimistic; on the contrary, I think this is a bloody yet very healthy "dehydration reshuffle" in a high-interest industry environment.
A careful breakdown of these dead projects reveals a harsh iron rule: the era of surviving by storytelling and token money subsidies is over.
The deaths in these 99 items mainly target three major causes of death:
The first cause of death is the "value capture black hole" of pure front-end tool protocols. Kanban and wallets like Zapper, Parsec, and Leap have good product experiences, but pure front-end platforms lack native token profit capture mechanisms and no commercial closed loop. During bear markets and periods of stock competition, the high costs of nodes and server operations have directly drained the team's cash flow.
The second cause of death was the complete failure of inflation and Ponzi mining. Protocols like Stream Finance used to print their own governance tokens to attract liquidity with high APYs. But under the pressure of the 10-year US Treasury risk-free rate of 4.7%, smart money would rather hold onto Treasuries than play the game of air token inflation. Once subsidies stop, Chizi immediately became a dead city.
The third cause of death is liquidity loss and compliance backlash among second-tier CEXs. As Solana's on-chain DEX trading volume surpasses that of traditional compliant CEXs, coupled with soaring regulatory compliance costs such as BitMEX lawsuits, the survival space of small and medium-sized CEXs is being squeezed by both on-chain DEXs and leading compliance giants, forcing them to go bankrupt and exit after liquidity runs dry.
My conclusion: The collective death of these 99 projects is the market helping you clean and cut out. Those who will survive in the future will either be leading public blockchains/DEXs with strong underlying network effects, or real yield blue-chip companies that continuously generate real fiat revenue and protocol dividends.
Among these 99 deadly items, have you ever used or fallen into a pitfall? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section.The essence of TSLA's sharp drop is: the market is not denying Tesla's future,
but is demanding that these future businesses be reflected more quickly and clearly in the financial statements.
The necessary conditions for Tesla's rise are: smooth rollout of FSD v15, scaled operation of Robotaxi,
and production ramp-up of Optimus—at least two of these must achieve substantial breakthroughs.
The sufficient condition for the rise is: while the above breakthroughs occur, automotive gross margin stabilizes and free cash flow improves, convincing the market that the "burn phase" is about to end.
Currently, Tesla is in the painful transition from the "car sales story" to the "AI story."
The market is willing to wait, but not indefinitely. Every upcoming quarterly report will be a major test of whether the "story can become reality." #财报观察员：谁能看懂谷歌和特斯拉这次的真实答卷？ $TSLA STRC's paper losses blew up a group yesterday. Treasury's book numbers forcibly pushed preferred stock discounts into an industry-wide credit test. To be honest, the moment I saw the Strive holdings exposed, I felt this wasn't that simple. It's not just one company's pressure, but everyone's problem. When $BTC broke below support, those telling stories about paper profits suddenly realized their preferred shares had become hot potatoes. The discount rate was much faster than expected, and liquidity drained the entire Bitcoin market The treasury valuation model is shaking. Sisters, stay calm. It's not that I'm trying to create anxiety, but this contagion is really fast. A book loss from a treasury can make an entire institution reprice the risk of Bitcoin holdings. The balance sheet management that was hyped up last year has become a tightening curse this year. The key isn't whether you have $MSTR, but treasuries with similar patterns Everyone is being re-evaluated. STRC is just the first domino to fall. Behind it are a bunch of people using the same logic to snowball. I'm not chasing highs or in a hurry to sell. Let's first see how the US stock market reacts tonight. If no one even accepts the discount on preferred stocks, that would be the real big problem. Is there still hope for treasury? Which side are you on on this topic? #芯片股反弹, short positions in U.S. stocks hit a record high #加密行情回暖, Bitcoin rose #美股全线走高, and crypto stocks led the gains This time, there was no new name that made me willing to raise my attention; instead, two old observation items gave completely different signals.
HBULL is currently about $0.00157, with a market capitalization of about $1.5 million, liquidity of about $125,000, and a 24-hour trading volume of about $872,000. Real transactions still exist, but RugCheck has a new tip that one address holds 25.83%. The project team stated that the large tokens are in the staking vault, but I have not yet been able to independently confirm the correspondence between this address and the publicly available staking procedure. About 97.97% of the main pool liquidity certificates are locked, and the rights for additional issuance and freezing have been revoked; Before the use of large addresses is proven, I just treat it as a routine observation.

BUB is earlier and more dangerous. Within about four hours, the number of holding addresses increased from 1,027 to 2,292, with about 3,537 independent traders and approximately $1.2 million in transactions; However, during the same period, the price pulled back about 30%, liquidity dropped to around $27,000–$29,000, and the turnover was more than forty times the liquidity. Tokens are temporarily dispersed, the main pool is nearly 100% locked, the proportion of bots is unknown, and the project has no verifiable official relationship with Lil BUB's original IP.

Next, I will verify three things: whether the HBULL large address can prove it is a bound vault; Whether buyback and reward transactions can be aligned consecutively; After BUB's hype cools down, can its holdings and liquidity remain? Large addresses concentrating into the pool, HBULL main pool lock-up continues to drop significantly, or BUB liquidity continues to rapidly drain away, all of which make me stop watching.
High-risk research records, not trade advice.On July 26, $SHIB emerged in an independent super rally without any fundamental improvements, project announcements, or ecosystem updates. The intraday peak surged 36%, with the price hitting $0.0000057, and the market capitalization surged by $1 billion in a single day, pushing the total market cap past $3.4 billion. 1. The Real Core of This Round of Rallies — Korean Kimchi Funds Dominate the Market This rally is not a consensus among all online funds but rather concentrated speculation in a single region: South Korea's leading exchange Upbit's $SHIB/KRW trading pair recorded a single-day trading volume of $62 million, accounting for over 10% of global trading volume. Moreover, the Korean session continues to perform at a slight premium over the mainstream US dollar market, which proves that this round of $SHIB's surge was entirely driven unilaterally by Korean retail funds. 2. Severe sector fragmentation, capital tightly clusters $SHIB This round of meme coin rally is not a broad rally but an extreme structural rally: - $DOGE Only rose 6% during the same period - Other dog-type imitation stocks generally rose less than 10% Capital is highly concentrated and solely focused on $SHIB, with very weak follow-up within the sector and no overall sector resonance support. 3. Contract liquidation data clarification: Short closing is not the driving force behind the rally. During this rally, a total of 2,300 users liquidated $SHIB positions across the network, with a total liquidation amount of $6 million. Of this, short positions were liquidated about $5 million. Key Core Conclusion: Short liquidation is merely a passive result after price increases, and is by no means the driving force behind this rally📊 $BCH Quick Overview of Liquidation
Scale of liquidations
· 1 hour: $96.06
· 4 hours: $293.63
· 12 hours: $48,400
· 24 hours: $58,300
Mostly and bearish distribution
Cycle: Bull liquidation, short liquidation, long position
1h $96.06 $0 100%
4h $189.26 $104.37 64.5%
12h $32,000 $16,300 66.1%
24h $36,200 $22,100 62.1%
Duokong interpretation
Forced liquidations dominated all periods (24-hour bulls accounted for 62.1%), indicating a sustained one-sided downward trend. 1-12 hour long positions account for 64.5%~100%, with almost no resistance on the bears; Although there was a 24-hour short liquidation at $22,100 (accounting for 37.9%), bulls still dominated. Ultimate winner: Bears—The price shows a continuous one-sided downward trend, while the bulls have cleared out consecutive stop-losses.
Time distribution
· 1 hour accounts for 0.16% of 24 hours
· 4 hours accounts for 0.50% of 24 hours
· 12 hours accounts for 83.0% of 24 hours
Extreme liquidations are concentrated in the 12-hour cycle (over 80%), indicating that the main downward wave has erupted within 12 hours; The total 24-hour volume is 1.20 times that of the 12-hour period, and in the following 12 hours, the bullish continues, but its intensity weakens. Currently, the market is at the end of a bear-led sustained decline, with the bullish forces basically cleared out. In the short term, we need to wait for signals of shrinking volume.
A one-sentence explanation
$BCH 24-hour long liquidations at $36,200, accounting for 62% of total volume; 12-hour concentrated breakout mainly triggered a decline, with bears winning decisively.
🔥 Market Barometer | July 24th
Today's three hot topics point to the same theme: the cost of AI, regulatory stalls, and the breathing on the edge of the geopolitical cliff.
📊 Google and Tesla: The "bill" for the AI feast has arrived
Two financial reports have revealed the harsh truth behind AI narratives.
Google beats expectations but comes at a heavy cost: total revenue of $119.8 billion, up 24% year-on-year; Google Cloud revenue was $24.77 billion, an 82% year-on-year increase. However, capital expenditures reached $44.9 billion, and free cash flow turned negative for the first time to -$5.9 billion. After hours, it once fell nearly 5%.
Tesla's revenue growth without profit growth: revenue of $28.24 billion, up 26% year-on-year; However, operating profit was only $398 million, a year-on-year plunge of 57%, with an operating margin of just 1.4%. Free cash flow turned negative for the first time in over two years. It fell more than 4% in after-hours trading.
Signal: Google's AI has formed a closed revenue loop in its cloud business; Meanwhile, Tesla's Robotaxi and Optimus remain at the "story" stage. The market is punishing AI narratives that are concept-heavy but lack cash flow.
📜 CLARITY Act Stalled: A $1.4 Billion Ethical Dilemma
Regulatory hopes for the crypto industry are fading. Although Senate Republicans released updated text and added a morality clause, seven Democratic senators collectively vetoed it. Senate Majority Leader Toon Toon made it clear that the bill is unlikely to pass before the August 7 recess.
Fundamental obstacle: The roughly $1.4 billion gains Trump gained from crypto business became the biggest obstacle. The Democrats are demanding stricter ethical clauses to prevent the president from continuing to profit from the crypto industry under government oversight.
Polymarket forecasts show that the probability of passing within the year has plummeted from over 80% to 37%. Missing the August window and dragging into the autumn elections will greatly reduce the chances of passing in 2026.
🚢 U.S. military pauses airstrikes: a breather on the edge of a geopolitical cliff
On July 25 local time, Trump ordered the U.S. military not to launch new airstrikes on Iran that day, ending a 13-day continuous daily strike campaign.
A few hours before the airstrike pause, the Omani delegation had already arrived in Tehran to begin negotiations to resume navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, reportedly making progress. Brent crude had previously surpassed $100 per barrel, and if negotiations break through, oil prices are expected to retreat.
Signal: This is a tactical pause—to leave room for diplomacy, but the U.S. military is still preparing contingency plans for resuming strikes.
💎 Summary
Three events outline the core contradictions in the current market: The bill for AI is approaching—Google and Tesla are telling the market that, for the first time ever, negative cash flow is heating up faster than expected; The regulatory window is closing—the $1.4 billion ethical dilemma makes it hard for the CLARITY Act to pass within the year; How long the pause in the geography lasts depends on the success or failure of Oman's mediation. #财报观察员: Who can truly understand the real answer sheet from Google and Tesla this time?
#多数党领袖称CLARITY休会前难通过
#美军暂停对伊空袭, negotiations on the opening of the strait made progress The European crypto scene is undergoing a silent reshuffle!
Don't focus on the candlestick for now—look for deeper changes.
In Europe, the MiCA regulation is fully implemented, and the UK FCA is also nearing finalizing the framework.
But the key is no longer just about getting a license.
The real threshold is the cost of compliance, which directly determines who survives.
To get straight to my point:
The survival space of crypto-native small businesses is being squeezed, while traditional banks, relying on their existing compliance foundations, are preparing to enter and harvest the profits.
The UK is even more aggressive, refusing to establish an independent crypto regime and directly bringing crypto activities into traditional financial regulation, aligning standards with those of investment banks.
This means that the previously wild growth path basically no longer works in Europe.
Here are a few points that ordinary people can take:
1. If you are an industry practitioner, don't just settle for obtaining a license; quickly assess the long-term compliance costs, as this is more critical than the license itself.
2. For crypto companies looking to break through, proactively seeking cooperation talks with traditional financial institutions with compliant infrastructure, or even accepting mergers and acquisitions, may be a clear path.
3. As investors, pay attention to crypto assets and related targets that already have compliance advantages or can be integrated into the traditional financial system at low cost.
Of course, the risk boundaries need to be clearly defined.
The scale and speed of this wave of acquisitions will depend on market conditions and the specific enforcement of regulations.
Moreover, overly strict regulation may push innovation to other regions, which would actually be a long-term loss for Europe itself.

$BTC$ETH$BNB#European regulation$PEPE Breaking through 0.00000304 was mainly driven by SHIB overflow and a decrease in exchange withdrawal stock, but the RSI6 reached 82.32, indicating that short-term liquidity has been overdrawn, making chasing highs very cost-effective.
The decline in exchange stock combined with the surge in Upbit trading volume formed the core buying interest. Compared to the long-term narrative of the second-half roadmap, the direct pull of SHIB sector capital spillover on spot liquidity is more obvious.
If spot buying remains strong and holds above the 0.00000304 to 0.00000305 resistance zone, the short-term liquidity push target will point to the 0.0000032 to 0.0000033 range. The scenario is effective if the 0.00000300 level is pushed back without breaking below and Upbit overflow funds show no sign of decline.
Once the 0.00000305 resistance level triggers intense selling pressure, profit-taking will push the price back to the first support band between 0.0000027 and 0.0000028. If it breaks further below the 0.0000025 to 0.0000024 support line, the 35% gains accumulated from the July 10 low of 0.0000022 will trigger a chain liquidation.
When the price smoothly breaks through 0.0000033 and the RSI6 falls back to the healthy range below 70, the short-term overbought correction prediction is declared invalid.
In the next 24 hours, focus on changes in Upbit's trading volume and the capital support at the 0.0000027 support level.
