$SKHYNIX Do you think you can bottom-fish just because SK Hynix surged after the US stock market opened?
Last night after the US market opened, SK Hynix surged to the resistance level at 1218, tried multiple times to break through 1218 but failed, then the market sharply dropped, indicating strong selling pressure above. The recent dip clearly looks like a bull trap.
The previous positive factors have been fully priced in, combined with high US Treasury pressure and foreign capital outflow, indicating no new upward momentum in the short term. On the four-hour chart, SK Hynix is still in a downtrend. Without positive news support, how can SK Hynix's price rise?
Therefore, don't blindly bottom-fish or rely on feelings. Focus on the trend and key levels, control your positions reasonably, and have every step planned for the safest approach.
Intraday, Sister Shan's view on SK Hynix remains bearish!! You can enter a short position at the current level of 1201!! Target is 1185🔥The U.S. August nonfarm payroll report released on September 4 was the biggest variable all assets watched over the past two days, but before its release, a series of frontline data had already shaken market sentiment back and forth several times, making it worth reviewing in full. Let's start with the latest ADP report. The August ADP announced that private sector jobs added only 38,000 jobs, not only below the market expectation of 48,000 but also the lowest since January this year. Looking back at the previous month, July ADP was also weak, adding 44,000, a sharp drop from the revised 95,000 in June. The cooling of employment growth is not a one-time accident but has been confirmed in the same direction for several consecutive months. By industry, this is not a comprehensive collapse but a structural divergence. Education and health services, leisure and hospitality, and construction are still increasing staff; while manufacturing, professional and commercial services are contracting. This situation of "some industries holding up, others laying off" is harder to judge than a simple "broad weakening"—it is neither enough to fully shift the market to recession pricing nor enough to shake the originally hawkish policy expectations again. What's even more noteworthy is that the official data itself has been continuously revised downward. The Bureau of Labor Statistics made a preliminary revision of the employment data for the 12 months ending March 2026, lowering 79,000 jobs; The official nonfarm payroll data for July unexpectedly recorded negative growth, cutting 23,000 jobs. The data for May and June was also revised downward, with a combined three-month figure 103,000 fewer than previously reported. ThisIn the past two days, the market has seen a rather contradictory combination:
Employment data is starting to weaken, yet expectations for a September rate hike are heating up.
The latest ADP report shows that the U.S. private sector added about 38,000 jobs in August, below the market expectation of 47,000, marking one of the weaker months recently. JOLTS job openings have also cooled down, and Friday's nonfarm payroll data may continue to be the market focus.
Logically, weakening economic data should support rate cut expectations, but the market is currently worried not about "economic cooling" but about inflation possibly picking up again. Energy prices are affected by geopolitical conflicts, long-term U.S. Treasury yields remain high, with the 10-year yield once approaching 4.81%, and market expectations for a 25 basis point rate hike in September have clearly intensified.
This makes the market environment very difficult:
Employment is not strong, indicating weakening economic momentum;
Inflation is not falling, limiting room for policy easing;
Interest rates remain high, putting continued pressure on tech stock valuations and financing costs.
If the combination of "continued weakening employment and persistently high inflation" emerges, the market may start to trade stagflation risks. For stocks and crypto assets, this environment is usually more challenging than simply high interest rates, because capital worries about both growth and price pressures.
Of course, single-month data is not enough to determine policy direction; the real key lies in upcoming nonfarm payrolls, CPI, oil prices, and Federal Reserve officials' statements.
Do you think the Fed will continue to maintain a hawkish stance in September, or will cooling employment eventually force a policy shift? $BTC Not running away
Not scared even if it drops
Keep fighting to the end
I am a hardcore $ETH bear
Must push it back to 2000
Last night BTC reached 76416

So 2000 is not far away
The short side is really comfortable this round
This short was opened at 2418
Now around 2394

This time I dare to hold on
Not because of one bearish candle
But because the macro pressure hasn't eased at all

It once broke 4.8% intraday
The market's probability of a September rate hike is approaching 70%
CME data shows a 66.9% chance of a rate hike
In this environment
The rebound is just an opportunity to short
High-leverage longs will step on themselves
$SOL has been obviously worse these two days
Directly fell below $100
When the market is weak
High Beta assets only fluctuate more extremely
No matter how strong before, now they can't hold
$BTC is relatively more resistant to the drop

But resistance to falling doesn't mean it can rise
This macro wall is right there
So this time I'm not in a hurry to close

Then decide whether to keep greedy!
#美伊制裁升级，能源通胀风险回升
#30年期美债收益率创2007年以来新高
#BTC加速拉升，资金还能继续接力吗？ In the past six months, a low-key yet highly significant financial migration has been quietly unfolding. The Dutch central bank DNB has silently completed a heavyweight operation: transferring 86 tons of gold reserves from overseas vaults in New York and Ottawa entirely to the London delivery system. The official explanation is very restrained, only stating that it is to improve asset liquidity, respond to potential crises, and diversify geopolitical risks. But those who understand macroeconomics know that central banks moving gold is never a simple logistics adjustment; it is a naked vote of confidence. This is not an isolated case. Previously, France had already acted, clearing out the last 129 tons of old gold stored at the New York Fed, simultaneously replacing it in the European market with an equivalent amount of new gold bars that meet LBMA international delivery standards. This operation not only completed the standardization upgrade of gold assets but also opportunistically arbitraged about 13 billion euros. The official rhetoric seems decent, but the underlying subtext is blunt: no longer trusting the US to fully manage core assets. For a long time, many countries worldwide have stored gold in New York vaults, with two core demands: first, to rely on the dollar system for ultimate clearing convenience; second, to assume that the US would provide implicit asset security guarantees. But now, core US allies like the Netherlands and France are actively repatriating gold and restructuring storage layouts, essentially publicly overturning this implicit guarantee. Not only Europe, Japan is also advancing similar operations. The well-known JGB repatriation is Japan continuously withdrawing US Treasury assets stored at the Federal Reserve back to its homeland. Although these appear to be independent actions in Europe and Japan, the underlying logic is completely consistent: countries are quietly divestingCurrently, we are in a strong tightening environment before the non-farm payroll data, with a 66%+ expectation of a rate hike in September, the 10-year US Treasury yield approaching 4.81%, and high oil prices. Overall, this is a macro-driven valuation kill, not an on-chain fundamental collapse.
Market characteristics: liquidity tightening, lack of incremental funds, existing funds repeatedly switching and selecting assets across various sectors and coins, the broad rally has ended, entering a phase of differentiation and volatility.#FOMC前最后一组数据：本周五非农
Let's review the current market contradictions: a series of earlier employment indicators have already signaled cooling, with August ADP private employment increasing by only 38,000, below market expectations. The Fed's Beige Book also confirmed that most regions across the U.S. are experiencing only moderate economic expansion, with weakening employment momentum.
However, rate hike expectations have not quickly declined; CME tools show the pricing for a 25bp rate hike in September still holds at 62.3%. Inflation harbors hidden risks: while core PCE appears stable, more than half of the PCE subcomponents have year-over-year increases exceeding 3%, so the risk of inflation diffusion has not disappeared. Fed officials' statements are cautious, acknowledging some inflation improvement but leaving open the possibility of further policy tightening.
All suspense is reserved for this Friday at 20:30 with the August nonfarm payroll report. This data will directly adjust rate hike probabilities, thereby influencing the short-term trends of the dollar, U.S. Treasuries, and crypto markets. For BTC, this nonfarm report is a watershed for the short-term market; the strength or weakness of the data will directly determine the upcoming market direction. This week, position sizing must be carefully controlled to avoid the huge volatility risk in the evening.#FOMC last set of data before: Nonfarm Payrolls this Friday
With the FOMC meeting on September 16 approaching, the market has only one major employment report left as a reference for decision-making. Recent leading economic data have already signaled a clear cooling, and market competition has entered a white-hot phase.
August ADP private sector employment increased by only 38,000, below the market expectation of 47,000, marking the slowest growth since January this year, with private sector hiring clearly slowing down. The latest Fed Beige Book also confirms this trend, with 10 out of 12 districts reporting only moderate economic growth, and overall employment growth momentum continuing to weaken.
Even though employment data is cooling, market bets on rate hikes have not completely faded. CME interest rate futures show a 62.3% probability of a 25 basis point hike in September. The core contradiction behind this comes from inflation: core PCE remains high at 3.3%, and the detailed data is even more concerning. Among 178 PCE sub-items, 54% have year-on-year increases exceeding 3%, compared to only 47% a year ago, indicating inflationary pressures are spreading.
Fed official Williams expressed a cautious stance, acknowledging some improvement in current inflation data but remaining watchful on whether to continue raising rates, awaiting the final employment data.
At 20:30 Beijing time on September 4, the August nonfarm payroll data will be the last key piece before this meeting. This data will directly determine the Fed's policy direction in September, and the short-term pricing of the dollar, US Treasury yields, and risk assets like BTC all hinge on this Friday night's data release, making market volatility highly worth watching.Friday's jobs report is the last major data the Fed sees before the September FOMC — no more NFP prints between here and the decision, which compresses a lot into one number. After July's negative payrolls print, a soft read likely locks in a cut and pulls the easing story forward; a hot one revives a pause the market has stopped pricing. For BTC and risk it's a low-vol coil into a binary catalyst, and those resolve sharply. Watch the print, not the pre-positioning.
#LastNFPBeforeFOMC Family, September has just begun, and the market has already taken a hit: On September 2nd, geopolitical conflicts escalated, causing over $300 million in liquidations across the crypto market within 24 hours, with 83,000 people forcibly liquidated, of which more than 80% were long positions. Historically in crypto, September has always been the worst-performing month. As for why this phenomenon occurs, today Xiao Huangdou will thoroughly break down this issue: 1. Looking at history first: September is indeed one of the worst months for BTC. Let's look at the data: Have you noticed an interesting point? The curse seems to have failed in the last three years: BTC rose about 4% in September 2023, about 7.25% in September 2024, and about 5.36% in September 2025, rising for three consecutive years. Could the so-called "September curse" actually be the result of liquidity, macro factors, and market leverage resonating together in this time window? 2. Liquidity/liquidity expectations affect the market's re-pricing. September happens to be a time window when macro re-pricing is very likely. This year it may be even more obvious. The Federal Reserve will hold the FOMC meeting from September 15 to 16, and the market's pricing for a 25bp rate hike in September once rose to about 66%–68%. BTC remains a high Beta risk asset in the short term: Rate hike expectations ↑ → US Treasury yields ↑ (10-year has broken 4.79%, a 19-month high) → risk-free rate increases → risk asset valuations under pressure → BTC and high Beta altcoins fluctuate first. September also overlaps with oil$OKB NIUMA community core departure reasons
• Insufficient ecosystem liquidity and lack of wealth effect: After the launch of X Layer (formerly OKB Chain), the ecosystem lacks continuously popular DeFi applications and killer Meme assets, severely limiting liquidity. Retail investors ("bull horses") find it difficult to achieve the expected profit effect.
• Platform resource bias and unmet listing expectations: Retail investors in the community originally expected that native ecosystem projects could quickly receive listing support on OKX main site spot or futures markets, but the actual threshold is very high, leading to early participants and builders losing enthusiasm.
• Strong siphoning effect from competing chains: Bull chains like Solana, Base, and Sui have heavily invested in Meme launch platforms (such as Pump.fun) and ecosystem incentives, creating a strong centrifugal drain effect on retail funds and attention.
Subsequent impact on OKB
• Short term: Decentralized gas demand (Gas Fee) under pressure
• The loss of the bull horse community and DEX trading volume directly reduces the consumption and locking demand of OKB on the X Layer chain, weakening its "ecosystem fuel" attribute at the Web3 chain layer.
• Medium to long term: Value anchoring returns to CEX empowerment and buyback mechanisms
• Price support resilience: The core value of OKB is still fundamentally supported by OKX exchange's platform revenue, fee deductions, and regular platform burn mechanisms, rather than solely depending on the X Layer chain ecosystem.
• Valuation ceiling reconstruction: Without an active on-chain ecosystem and community consensus (DeFi/Meme driven), OKB is less likely to enjoy the ecosystem premium of bull chains (such as SOL, BNB). Its valuation will be more tightly bound to OKX exchange's own business growth and global compliance progress.Brothers, the start of September is unfavorable. Bitcoin fell below $77,000, Ethereum lost the $2,400 level, and Solana dropped below $100. In the past 24 hours, the crypto market liquidations reached $370 million, with over 90,000 leveraged traders forcibly liquidated. Oil prices hit $90 per barrel, and the 10-year US Treasury yield surged to 4.78%—macroeconomic headwinds are suppressing all risk assets. This article will break down three core issues: why the drop happened, who suffered the worst losses, and what to watch next. 📊 Let's look at the data: what happened in the past 24 hours? As of September 3, BTC fell about 2.14% over the past 7 days to $77,336, ETH dropped about 4.57% to $2,392 in the same period. The total crypto market cap retreated to around $2.6 trillion. The Fear & Greed Index rose to 71, but the altcoin season index was only 32, indicating the market rally has not fully spread. Liquidations were concentrated on leveraged longs. Of the total $369.67 million liquidated, long liquidations accounted for $301.84 million, or 81.6%. Over 90,000 leveraged traders were forcibly liquidated that day. By asset, Bitcoin liquidations led with $111.83 million, Ethereum $95.39 million, Solana $27.09 million, and XRP also weakened. 🔥 Primary driver: $90 oil + 4.78% Treasury yield, a double squeeze on risk assets The direct trigger for the market weakness was the simultaneous rise in international oil prices and US Treasury yields. A new round of military conflict erupted between the US and Iran in the Strait of Hormuz. WTI🔥The night before Nonfarm Payrolls: If BTC can't hold 77,300, look for 75,000.
Friday's Nonfarm Payrolls is the last data set before the FOMC.
ADP has already contradicted expectations: previous value 46,000, forecast 48,000, actual 38,000.
Simply put: employment is cooling down, and rate hike expectations are not completely dead yet.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs saw a net outflow of about $240 million right after opening in September.
I think the area around 77,300 shouldn't be considered a solid bottom.
If it breaks down, look for 75,000; only consider buying again if it holds steady.
Are you waiting for Nonfarm Payrolls to act, or reducing positions now?
#LastDataBeforeFOMC: This Friday's Nonfarm Payrolls #TradingVoice $BTC $ETH In the past two days, $ETH has fallen back from above 2500 USD to around 2400 USD. My 20x long position opened at 1902 is still open, and the unrealized profit is already quite high.
But at this point, I am more concerned about whether the funds continue to come in.
I mainly watch two levels:
Above: 2450–2500 USD. If it can stand back above this range and ETF funds turn strong again, it means there is still capital relay after this pullback, and the market still has room to go up.
Below: Around 2350 USD. If this level holds steady, I am more willing to interpret the current situation as a normal consolidation after the rise; but if it breaks down and ETF outflows continue, then a short-term reassessment is needed.
There is something interesting about ETH right now.
On one hand, institutions and enterprises are still continuously holding ETH, and staking data is not weak; on the other hand, the previously continuous inflows into ETFs have recently cooled down, and the price has fallen from the highs.
So I am not rushing to close the position just because the unrealized profit is high.
This position has been held since 1902. For me, what really matters next is not how much more profit can be made on paper, but whether the funds that drove ETH’s rise are still present.
#BTC高位回落，黄金联动受考验 $UNI quietly making big moves: The king of DEX silently takes over the US stock tokenization market
UNI is currently at 5.76, down 2.7% in 24h, looking rather ordinary. But Uniswap just accomplished something big
Its stock tokens on Robinhood Chain have surpassed $1.5 billion in trading volume over six weeks, capturing 99% of the network's liquidity. On August 29 alone, it hit a new high of over $130 million, with 60% of trades occurring outside regular US stock market hours.
To translate: global users want to trade Nvidia and Apple stocks late at night without brokers, all flocking to Uniswap. This is the achievement after only two months of US stocks being on-chain.
The V4 protocol is also a money printer: annual revenue potential of $120-325 million. The price has broken the trendline from 4.40 at the end of August to 5.76.
The logic is simple: BNB Chain grabbed the issuance side, Uniswap grabbed the trading side. One is the shelf, the other is the cashier, and the cashier earns more steadily.

The leader has something to say
Saudi crude oil exports have dropped to a 9-year low, about 3 million barrels per day. Oil prices surged in response, with Brent crude approaching a six-week high.
The Strait of Hormuz is not blocked; the US military escorted 40 merchant ships through, setting a wartime record for throughput. The blockage is in the Red Sea. To avoid Hormuz, Saudi Arabia is using the Red Sea route, which is currently under attack by Houthi forces.
Pressure on the other side comes from Russia and Ukraine. Besent first mentioned Ukraine's attacks on Russian energy facilities, then Iran. These attacks have forced Moscow to extend the diesel export ban until the end of the month.
With both events happening simultaneously, oil prices are likely to rise in the short term and hard to fall. Inflation expectations are heating up, US Treasury yields are rising, and risk assets are under pressure.
Bitcoin is weak; after failing to break 81,000, the highs continue to decline. Holding ZEC short positions and continuing with $BTC $ETH $SOL
The above analysis is time-sensitive; orders must have stop-losses set. Good luck.Tonight's Nonfarm Payrolls, what about ZEC?
Tonight, the US Nonfarm Payrolls will be released. The market currently expects an increase of about 50,000 to 60,000 jobs, with the unemployment rate expected to remain at 4.1%. (Topone Markets)
My judgment: Nonfarm Payrolls are unlikely to be particularly strong, with a higher possibility of being weak or in line with expectations. However, since the Fed's September rate hike expectations have recently clearly intensified, as long as the data does not significantly exceed expectations, the market may still maintain a hawkish trading stance.
For ZEC, strong Nonfarm Payrolls = bearish, weak Nonfarm Payrolls = rebound risk.
So tonight, the focus is on whether ZEC can hold 800 after the data release; if it rebounds, pay close attention to resistance around 830. Do not bet on the data in advance; wait for the market to give direction.
Finally, one more thing: I have already cleared my empty positions. My position was relatively poor for me, so I left. Those interested can check my live trading.In the past 24 hours, the crypto market has continued to be in a state of "macro pressure not relieved, but internal funds have not fully withdrawn." BTC and SOL have slightly recovered, ETH is nearly flat, and the Fear and Greed Index has returned to 65; meanwhile, preliminary data for the US spot ETF remains weak, stablecoin net inflow over the past 7 days is only 0.05%, and liquidations in the past 24 hours are still mainly long positions. Therefore, what is most worth paying attention to today is not whether prices have rebounded, but: Market sentiment has already recovered first, but real incremental funds have not yet returned in sync. There is a recovery after the macro shock, but risk appetite remains fragile. As of September 3, 09:54 HKT, BTC is at $77,373, up 0.79% in 24h; ETH is at $2,388.33, down 0.09%; SOL is at $100.21, up 1.41%. According to CoinGecko's public chart standards, the total crypto market cap is about 2.697 trillion USD, with only a slight 0.2% increase in 24 hours. The Fear and Greed Index rose from 63 to 65, continuing in the greed zone. There is a clear discrepancy between price and sentiment: although BTC and SOL have rebounded, overall market cap expansion is very limited, and ETH has basically not participated in the recovery. Among the top 30 non-stablecoin market caps, ADA rose 5.86%, while Canton fell 3.51%, showing clear capital divergence. The latest verifiable liquidation snapshot is about 356 million USD, of which long positions account for about 276 million USD, or a proportionDOGE's "backwardness" is precisely its firewall
DOGE is often mocked for "technological stagnation": no smart contracts, no DeFi, no cross-chain bridges. But it is exactly this "backwardness" that forms its strongest firewall.
Looking back at the history of crypto thefts over the years, money was almost always lost in complex places. The Ronin bridge lost over $600 million due to private key management failures, Wormhole lost over $300 million due to signature verification vulnerabilities, flash loans, reentrancy attacks, and oracle manipulations have been rampant—cross-chain bridges once accounted for two-thirds of DeFi hacking incidents. The logic is simple: the more features added, the more complex the code combinations become, and the larger the attack surface grows.
$DOGE goes against this trend by only doing one thing: transfers. There is no virtual machine to exploit, no contract logic to manipulate, no bridge to smuggle through. The code is directly inherited from Bitcoin and Litecoin, with the protocol layer nearly frozen for years, and every line has been tested by over a decade of real-world operation. The mainnet has never lost a penny due to its own vulnerabilities—the only breaches were of peripheral online wallets, not the chain itself.
What Taleb calls "antifragility" is exactly this structure: it does not rely on sophisticated defenses but simply leaves no entry point for accidents. In an industry that desperately stacks features, DOGE proves that simplicity itself is a scarce security asset. Of course, the community is now discussing upgrade proposals to introduce smart contracts, and if implemented, whether this firewall can remain intact is another matter.$FIL This time there's something going on!
This asset has picked up the old narrative of AI storage again, and it rose 5.5% against the trend!
Reasons for the rise:
On-chain storage of AI training data increased by 40% month-over-month, Filecoin is being revalued as a decentralized data layer; the Onchain Cloud mainnet is running, FVM lock-up has taken away some of the circulating supply, tightening supply in the short term.
Even more intense is the first halving in October, with block rewards cut from 32 to 16, annual inflation dropping from 18% to below 7%, directly changing the selling pressure structure. The market usually speculates on expectations six months in advance, and now is the window.
24h trading volume is $16.8 million, which is 3 times the 30-day average. But FIL still has a 16–18% annual issuance, and the 99.7% retracement from 236 to 0.8 is real, a graveyard for retail investors.
7-day volatility is slightly bullish, 0.78 is support, 0.834 is previous high resistance; if it can hold above 0.8, there is still another wave, but if it breaks 0.78, the narrative falls apart. Use it as a flexible position for AI+storage, not as a value coin to hold dead.#FOMC last set of data before the meeting: Nonfarm payrolls this Friday
Employment data is cooling off, but the market is still betting on a 62.3% chance of a rate hike.
The final piece of the employment puzzle before the FOMC will be revealed on Friday:
▪️ ADP only increased by 38,000, expected 47,000, the slowest since January
▪️ Beige Book: 10 out of 12 districts show only moderate growth
▪️ CME: 62.3% priced in for a 25bp hike in September
The disagreement isn’t about employment, but about the Fed’s anchor. Despite such weak data, rate hikes aren’t being suppressed because this round is anchored on inflation: Core PCE stuck at 3.3%, 54% of 178 subcomponents rose over 3%, up from 47% a year ago. Inflation isn’t sticky, it’s spreading.
BTC is stuck at the 80,000 threshold waiting for this data. If below 50,000, rate hike expectations cool down and BTC breaks 80,000 accordingly; if above 100,000, first see if 75,000 can hold. Volatility is suppressed even below actual levels, and once the data is out, it will rebound doubly.
See you Friday at 20:30 for the verdict. Which side are you on: employment softening means stopping, or inflation not returning to 2% means no easing? $BTC ADP only reported 38,000 jobs, BTC bounced back to 77,000, but ETH still feels uncertain
#FOMC last set of data before Friday's nonfarm payrolls
Today's rebound is the easiest to fool people into getting overconfident.
ADP announced only 38,000 new private jobs in August, BTC quickly returned to $77,688, $ETH also touched 2400.63, $SOL 100.84, up 1.5% intraday.
It looks like the data softened, and risk assets can finally catch a breath.
But watching ETH this time, I still feel uneasy.
In the past few days, its rebound was always a bit delayed; today it finally touched 2400 again, but that doesn't mean this level is truly secured. With weakening employment, the market can first trade on "policy is not that tight"; but the weaker employment is, the more people will start to think about another issue: is the economy more troublesome than expected.
The market is best at playing this game. It pulls up for a while, then waits for the US session to bring out another logic to hit you.
So I’m not in a hurry to call this rebound a real strengthening. BTC holding above 77,500 and ETH grinding above 2400 means there are truly buyers; if BTC falls back to 77,000 and ETH loses 2400 again, this morning’s move is most likely just short covering.
Honestly, seeing them rally makes everyone itchy to act. But rushing in now isn’t betting on the data, it’s betting you won’t just buy at the very first rebound.

#OKX星球话题来啦 #星球日报 SEC Chairman publicly supports, saying the Senate vote on September 15 is expected to pass the CLARITY Act smoothly. But prediction markets poured cold water directly, giving only a 14% chance of passage. The expectation gap between the two sides is ridiculously large. SEC Chairman Paul Atkins clearly stated in an interview that this milestone crypto bill is expected to pass and be sent to the President for signing. The SEC will also update supporting rules to adapt to the blockchain industry. Not only the SEC Chairman, but also Coinbase's CEO and Trump have publicly supported the bill, optimistic about its implementation. If the bill really passes, it will clearly define which coins are securities and which are commodities. BTC and ETH will be classified as digital commodities, ETH staking rewards will be legalized, and the CFTC will gain primary jurisdiction over the spot market, which is a regulatory clarity framework the industry has long awaited. The interesting part is here: senior officials are full of confidence verbally, but the trading market completely rejects this. On Polymarket, the probability of the bill passing has plummeted from 82% in February to 14% now; another platform, Kalshi, shows only 22%. Why is there such a serious cognitive divide? Two hurdles are stuck in the Senate. The first is the dispute over stablecoin interest. Traditional banks strongly lobby against stablecoins paying interest to users. Banks worry that funds will massively flow out of deposits to crypto stablecoins, making this interest battle hard to compromise. The second is the tug-of-war over the morality clause.

"The Fed firmly shuts the door on rate cuts, Besent directly lifts the tight grip on banks releasing hundreds of billions in liquidity"
The Fed has welded high interest rates firmly in place and refuses to loosen, Besent directly led people to break the locks on all US banks' vaults.
For the past decade or so, whether banks were pulling cotton or iron blocks, reserves were strictly locked at the highest standards, forcing financial institutions to have money but not dare to lend, and small and medium banks lost all profits just coping with complicated compliance reports.
The new plan is to completely remove Treasury bonds and cash reserves from leverage indicators, allowing banks to unload tens of thousands of pounds of burden out of thin air, directly releasing hundreds of billions of dollars more lending capacity without spending a penny.
The Treasury is stepping on the gas to urge enterprises to expand production and dilute debt, and the huge liquidity flowing out of the vaults is already accelerating through interest rate spreads into bond market making and high-yield assets.
On one hand, gritting teeth to fight inflation, on the other, fully unleashing liquidity, two trillion-level macro forces are colliding head-on. $BTC The non-farm payrolls for Friday haven't been released yet, but Bitcoin has been hovering around 77,000 for several days. At 8:30 PM on Friday, this data will be the last trump card before the FOMC meeting, directly deciding whether the September rate hike will happen. First, let's talk about how divided the market expectations are. August non-farm payrolls are expected to increase by 55,000 to 58,000, July was -23,000, and the expectation is a "violent rebound." The unemployment rate is expected to be 4.1%, unchanged from the previous value. But the ADP "small non-farm" only added 38,000, the lowest since January this year, so the data is already conflicting. The bigger background is that after the hawkish speech at Jackson Hole last week, the probability of a September rate hike has surged from 35% to over 65%. Williams also added that there is "no clear answer" on whether the current rates are enough to bring inflation back to 2%. Weak employment hasn't led to any easing in pricing; inflation remains the dominant variable. There are three scenarios, three completely different paths. Scenario one: Non-farm payrolls are significantly below expectations (below 30,000) → rate hike probability cools down → Bitcoin may rebound, even strongly. But July was already negative once; two consecutive months of weakness would not be a "trend" but a "structural problem." Scenario two: Non-farm payrolls meet expectations (between 50,000 and 80,000) → this is the most subtle situation. The market expects a violent rebound; if the data meets expectations, the rate hike probability won't decrease. Wash has already said—inflation is still too high, and as long as employment doesn't collapse, he has reason to continue suppressing inflation. Bitcoin may instead face the pressure of "good news already priced in." Scenario three: Non-farm payrolls exceed expectations (over 10🚨【ADP Surprise｜Why Are BTC and ETH Diverging?】
The small nonfarm payrolls data is out: August ADP added only 38,000 jobs, significantly below market expectations, indicating the U.S. labor market is cooling down. In theory, this should support rate cut expectations, giving BTC, ETH, and U.S. stocks some breathing room.
However, the market did not immediately take off; instead, a clear divergence appeared.
BTC showed relative resilience, while ETH was more volatile, with a more noticeable rise and fall.
The reason is simple: the market is trading on two sets of logic simultaneously.
On one side, weakening employment leads to easing rate hike expectations; on the other, the U.S.-Iran conflict plus rising oil prices increase inflationary pressure, and U.S. Treasury yields remain high. The 10-year Treasury yield is still around 4.79%, so interest rate pressure has not truly eased.
Therefore, I am now focusing more on one indicator:
Whether the 10-year Treasury yield can continue to decline.
If yields truly fall, the rate cut trade triggered by ADP could further develop, giving BTC and ETH more sustained rebound potential.
Conversely, if employment weakens, oil prices rise, and yields climb again, this rebound might just be a "rate cut optimism realization."
Friday's nonfarm payrolls will be the real test.
Do you think the nonfarm data will continue to surprise on the downside, or will it trigger another market reversal?👇
#FOMC前最后一组数据：本周五非农 #财报观察员：博通业绩超预期，Snowflake上调指引 🔥 LIQUIDITY OR CURRENCY DEVALUATION – IS BTC RISING DUE TO REAL LIQUIDITY, OR JUST BECAUSE THE MARKET NO LONGER TRUSTS THE USD? There's a question I think will determine Bitcoin's direction in the coming months: Is BTC rising because liquidity is returning... or is BTC rising because investors are worried about fiat currency losing value? Both scenarios can cause: ₿ Bitcoin to rise. But... the consequences are completely different. And if misunderstood... you could choose the wrong overall strategy. This is what I'm observing Queen XXAntiWar admits loss, liquidates $Niulai? 🤨
— Not really, just changed addresses
Since 08.30, these two addresses have cumulatively spent about $1.787 million to build positions in Niulai, with an average price below $0.086 (most were built when the market cap was 86M); in recent days, through multiple transfers, 17.57 million tokens have been moved to 7 addresses, and they are likely still at an unrealized loss.
Therefore, although Fomo shows XXAntiWar has liquidated, in reality, it’s because the new holding addresses were not recorded.

0x9BbB821a51d9c0eF24dd8592E9CAAd7FC469BBF2To get straight to the point: whether there is a rate hike in September or not, $BTC will rise. A rate hike means the bad news is fully priced in, no hike means the good news is realized. Either way, it goes up.
The probability of a rate hike in September is now 66%, up from 35% a week ago. After Wash's hawkish speech at Jackson Hole, the market completely flipped. Everyone panicked again, saying "Rate hike is coming, BTC will drop."
Brothers, I've been through three rate hike cycles, and every time it's the same script. Before the hike, the market is terrified; when the hike actually happens, it goes up. Why? Because the expectation is already priced in. What does a 66% probability mean? It means two-thirds of people already believe the hike will happen, those who needed to sell have sold, and those who needed to short have shorted. The day the hike actually happens, the bad news is out, shorts cover, and the price goes up.
What if there is no hike? Even simpler. The 66% probability fails, bulls explode upward, and shorts get crushed beyond recognition.
Look at another piece of data. Beige Book is out, and there are no strong new hawkish signals. This means Wash's tough talk has reached its limit; the actual data doesn't support him being that hawkish. The toughest talk happens when the rate hike expectation is highest, which is when the price is under the most pressure. When the shoe drops on September 16, whether there is a hike or not, it will go up.
Below 77,000 is a golden buying opportunity. Build your position in batches, buy more as it falls. After September 16, see where the price stands.
Don't ask me how I know. On the day of the rate hike, come back and like this post.
#BTC #RateHike #FOMC #Wash #TimeTravelerTrump Endorses AI Copyright, Policy Direction Draws Market Attention
Former U.S. President Trump publicly expressed support for copyright protection of AI-generated content, sparking discussions on the direction of AI copyright policies. However, the news lacks specific details, and the market impact remains to be seen.
The news headline reads "Trump Endorses AI Copyright," but the article does not provide concrete content or background information. AI copyright issues are currently a global regulatory focus. As a potential next presidential candidate, Trump's stance could influence future determinations by the U.S. Copyright Office and legislative bodies regarding the copyright status of AI-generated content. Support for AI copyright could benefit companies owning AI content creation platforms (such as Adobe, Shutterstock) while increasing legal risks related to the use of AI training data, creating uncertainty for model providers like OpenAI and Meta. Due to the absence of specific statements, contexts, and policy details, it is currently impossible to assess the actual strength of this endorsement and the market reaction.Quiet tape — BTC near $77.5K barely green, ETH lagging at -0.7%, SOL leading small at +0.8%. The read isn't the moves, it's the compression: majors coiling in a tight band while the market waits on Friday's US jobs print. Low-volatility drift into a known catalyst tends to resolve sharply, not gently. Here, positioning for the move matters more than guessing its direction.#财报观察员：博通业绩超预期，Snowflake上调指引
I am Cige, Broadcom and Snowflake have both reported their results.
Broadcom's Q3 revenue and earnings both exceeded market expectations, with AI semiconductor revenue rising to $16.7 billion. Custom AI chips and networking business continue to benefit. However, the Q4 overall revenue guidance is slightly below analyst forecasts, and the stock price fell more than 6% in after-hours trading before narrowing the decline. The market is confirming one logic: AI demand remains, but the expectations for the speed of performance delivery have increased. Broadcom's network chips are the core link for AI data center interconnection; the slightly lower guidance indicates that market expectations have already outpaced the fundamentals.
Snowflake presents a different scenario. Q2 product revenue grew 37% year-over-year, AI-assisted coding tool CoCo's user accounts increased to 9,100, and the company raised its full-year revenue and margin guidance, with the stock price rising more than 21% in after-hours trading. AI demand is spreading from servers and chips to data clouds and software applications. Snowflake has validated that AI-driven data consumption is accelerating, not just compute power procurement.
Dell previously raised its full-year AI server revenue forecast, with demand for compute infrastructure continuing to grow. The AI chain transmission from chips to servers to networks to data clouds is happening, but the pace varies at each link. The direction hasn't changed, but the pace is shifting. Cige has finished speaking; savor this carefully. $BTC $ETH $SOL Since its inception, Trump Coin has never been a conventional crypto asset. It is a meme token created based on political IP, with no business launches, no cash flow, no technological iteration, and its entire value is built on hype narratives and retail investor speculation. This round of rally peaked above $3.6 and fell to a low of $2.2. Many traders mistakenly believe that after a sharp correction, 2.2 is already near the bottom and the market could rebound to $3 or even higher. However, considering the overall crypto environment, regulatory reality, chip structure, manipulative model, and the project's own harvesting attributes, this coin has a real possibility of falling near $1 and is not an alarmist, extreme speculation. First, we must recognize its underlying attributes: Trump Coin is fundamentally designed to have a harvesting attribute. At the initial issuance, Trump's entities controlled the vast majority of token supply. Initial tokens were heavily concentrated in the hands of project teams and early internal investors, while ordinary retail investors mostly bought shares at high prices in the secondary market. The project's official team can directly earn profits from transaction fees. Early on-chain data shows that project-related wallets earned tens of millions of dollars from transaction fees, while many retail wallets ultimately lost money. Unlike ordinary community-driven meme coins, which are typical meme coins initiated spontaneously by private enthusiasts, Trump coins leverage the political influence of public figures to package personal IPs as tokens for commercial monetization, political flowIs a major crash coming?
Today, this question might be more worth discussing than "when will the rebound happen."
$BTC is currently around $77,000, still not reclaiming the $80,000 level. Meanwhile, the U.S. Treasury market is putting pressure on risk assets: the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield has risen to about 4.81%, near a nearly three-year high, and market expectations for a September rate hike have clearly intensified.
What’s more troublesome is the oil price.
After the escalation of the U.S.-Iran conflict, Brent crude briefly surged above $94. Rising oil prices mean inflationary pressures are resurfacing, naturally suppressing expectations for rate cuts.
This is also an important backdrop for the recent weak performance of BTC, ETH, and altcoins.
But it’s unnecessary to shout "imminent crash" just yet.
BTC has not shown signs of extreme leveraged liquidations so far; instead, the macro environment remains persistently tight. If BTC later breaks key support levels while Treasury yields continue to rise, it could trigger a chain reaction of "price drop—liquidations—further decline."
So what we really need to guard against next is not a single large bearish candle, but a sudden tightening of market liquidity.
Failing to hold above $80,000, and then losing the $77,000 area again, will significantly increase risks.
If even $75,000 can’t be defended, then discussing a "major crash" might no longer be just scaring ourselves.
#FOMC前最后一组数据：本周五非农 #沙特原油出口跌至9年最低，油价飙升 #BTC高位回落，黄金联动受考验 The US-Iran conflict escalates, gold rebounds, but $BTC falls below $76,500. This time, the "digital gold" is once again being questioned by the market.
Today, Bitcoin once dropped more than 2% to around $76,400, $ETH fell over 3%, and $SOL and $XRP dropped even more. The trigger is still the US-Iran conflict: Brent crude oil surged to $95, the 10-year US Treasury yield briefly touched 4.81%, and the market has raised the probability of a rate hike in September to about two-thirds.
Interestingly, gold $XAU pulled back above $4,370 from a low during the session. Also touted as inflation-hedging and currency-devaluation-resistant, when faced with war and interest rate shocks, funds still sell BTC as a risk asset first, rather than buying it immediately as a safe haven.
However, BTC hasn’t completely broken down this time. On Monday, the US spot ETF still saw a net inflow of about $217 million, indicating institutional funds have not collectively fled.
I am currently mainly watching the $75,000 support and $80,000 resistance. If Friday’s nonfarm payrolls continue to push up rate hike expectations, $75,000 may be tested again; if yields fall back, BTC could retake $80,000, making this adjustment more like a deleveraging.
Who is really more of a safe haven, gold or BTC? The market is taking a live test these days.
#BTC高位回落，黄金联动受考验 For Dogecoin to return to its peak, the key is not how many tweets Elon Musk posts, but whether he can convert his personal influence into real-world use cases. The era driven by sentiment is over; the market now values whether a cryptocurrency can truly be used.
Elon Musk's strongest card is payment implementation. If he can officially integrate Dogecoin into the payment system on the X platform, allowing hundreds of millions of users to naturally use it for tipping, transfers, and shopping, Dogecoin will have a stable demand base rather than just being a speculative chip in investors' hands. Tesla and SpaceX product payments can also further expand support, extending from merchandise to more services, forming a consumption closed loop.
Secondly, investment in the technical foundation is needed. $DOGE's development has long relied on volunteers, and there is room for improvement in transaction speed, fees, and security. Musk could fund the formation of a core development team to drive network upgrades, enabling it to truly surpass traditional transfer methods in payment efficiency.
Furthermore, he needs to restrain personal statements that disturb the coin's price. In the past, every time he spoke, it triggered intense market fluctuations. While this brought attention, it also deterred institutions and merchants. A predictable, mildly volatile environment is conducive to the long-term construction of payment scenarios.
The last often overlooked point: compliance. Proactively cooperating with regulatory frameworks, so merchants dare to accept it and platforms dare to list it, is the premise for going far.
Ultimately, what Musk can do is not to recreate a wave of hype but to turn Dogecoin from a topic into a tool. The hype will fade, but the tool will remain.1. Today's Market Background: A Turbulent Season Brothers, today's market is quite interesting. Let's start with the big picture—geopolitical + macro double whammy. The US and Iran clashed in the Strait of Hormuz; two oil tankers hit mines and exploded. The US military completed a new round of strikes against Iran, and the Iranian Revolutionary Guard responded with missile drones targeting US bases. International oil prices briefly surged past $96 per barrel. Meanwhile, the 10-year US Treasury yield soared to 4.78%-4.79%, with the market pricing a 66% probability of a Fed rate hike on September 16. Risk assets collectively tanked—in the past 24 hours, 90,000 people were liquidated, with total liquidations around $370 million, of which longs accounted for $300 million. Market data: BTC at $77,336, down 2.14% over 7 days; ETH at $2,392, down 4.57% over 7 days; total market cap about $2.7 trillion, BTC dominance rising to 59.57%. --- 2. Market Analysis: The Key Battleground Between Bulls and Bears Bearish logic: Oil price surge = rising inflation expectations = Fed reluctant to ease = pressure on risk assets. BTC was pushed down from above $80,000 to the $76,000-$77,000 range, with short-term momentum clearly weakening. Bitcoin spot ETFs saw a single-day net outflow of $236 million. Historically, September is BTC's "curse month"—since 2013, 8 out of 13 Septembers have closed lower. Bullish logic: Long-term holders returned to net buying after about a month. Spot ETFs for ETH, SOL, and XRP actually saw net inflows. BTC is currently still in the 63,000-86 $BTC has always pulled back each time before, so be cautious this time.
First, let's explain what this chart is. The Mean Reversion Index averages nine fair value anchors together, including the 200-week moving average, Realized Price, Power Law, several on-chain VWAPs, and then places the current price into the historical distribution to tell you which percentile it is in.
In plain language, it shows how much more expensive this position is compared to historical levels.
In June, it was 15.8, deep green, meaning less than one-sixth of the time in history was it cheaper than that. Now it's 38.1, having climbed out of the green zone into the lower edge of the yellow zone.
In two months, it moved from deeply undervalued to slightly undervalued. The price hasn't gone crazy, but the cheapness has indeed been eaten up by more than half.
Here's the key point: looking back at the line below, in 2015, 2019, and 2023, every time it climbed out of the green zone, it would return once more to the green zone before truly trending.
This time, our speed of leaving the green zone is among the fastest, with basically no pullback in between. The gray area above is also surging; the price is running ahead of its own valuation system.
A 38th percentile is not expensive; this is not a signal to sell. But it is no longer a position where buying blindly is always right; the cheapness of the green zone is gone.
The 200WMA catch-up plan remains in place. If I get one chance to pull back to the green zone, that would be the most comfortable entry point for this cycle.
In the past, it always gave that chance; whether it will this time, I don't know.
#FOMC前最后一组数据：本周五非农 Taking a look at OKX's September financial calendar, what really makes me cautious isn't any single data point, but several variables starting to cluster together.
September 4th is the US non-farm payrolls, September 16th is the Federal Reserve interest rate decision, with the Apple event and CLARITY Act vote in between, and at the end of the month there's Korea Blockchain Week and the UK FCA's crypto regulatory progress.
Many people treat these as a bunch of "bullish/bearish" factors.
I think it's not that simple.
The biggest trading logic in September actually boils down to two things:
First, whether employment can continue to cool down.
Second, whether the Federal Reserve has enough reason to change its policy pace.
If employment weakens and inflation continues to fall, the market will be trading liquidity expectations, and BTC is more likely to follow a trend.
But if employment remains resilient and inflation refuses to come down, then trouble arises—the market will reprice "longer-lasting high interest rates."
At that point, so-called crypto positives might not be enough to offset macro pressure.
So I won't be guessing BTC's ups and downs every day in September.
I prefer to wait for the data to reveal the direction itself.
The real big moves often don't start the moment the news breaks, but only after the market realizes its expectations were wrong.
What will everyone be watching most in September: non-farm payrolls, FOMC, or the CLARITY Act?
$BTC $ETH $SOL The biggest variable affecting Bitcoin's price trend this week is Friday's non-farm payroll data.
Currently, the market's mainstream expectation for August's non-farm payroll additions is between 55,000 and 80,000. This number itself is not strong, and cooling signals can be seen from two key leading indicators:
ADP "small non-farm" is significantly below expectations: August ADP new jobs were only 38,000, far below the expected 47,000, marking the lowest since January this year. This casts a shadow over the non-farm data. July data was significantly revised downward: July non-farm payrolls were reduced by 23,000, plus a combined downward revision of 103,000 for May and June, indicating that the labor market weakness may be more severe than observed. If the non-farm data falls between 55,000 and 80,000, it basically meets the expectation of a "moderate cooling," and the Federal Reserve may view it as a signal of an orderly slowdown in the labor market, unlikely to significantly change the 58% probability of a rate hike in September.【Crypto Script】
#财报观察员: Broadcom's performance exceeds expectations, Snowflake raises guidance
I'm Script Bro. Dell's earnings report this time basically tells the market that the AI feast isn't over yet. Now it's shifting from Nvidia eating alone to a group at the table.
In the past, when hyping AI, everyone only saw Nvidia; GPUs were the "money printing machines." But having GPUs alone isn't enough—servers, storage, networks, and data centers all need to keep up, or else buying a bunch of chips just ends up gathering dust in warehouses.
Dell's performance exceeding expectations shows that enterprises are still pouring money into AI infrastructure. The market is no longer just about whether "AI is strong or not," but about who can truly make money from AI. After all, no matter how good the story sounds, in the end, it depends on whether the wallet can get fatter.
On the US stock side, the AI industry chain continues to be strong, supporting the Nasdaq and tech stocks. As long as funds are still willing to chase growth assets, market risk appetite won't be too bad.
The same logic applies to the crypto space. Strong US tech stocks indicate that funds are still willing to take risks, so risk assets like BTC can easily benefit from positive sentiment. But don't forget, the real big boss for BTC is still the Federal Reserve and US dollar liquidity. AI can only ignite the fire, not burn the entire bull market. If US stocks continue to be strong, funds may have the opportunity to continue spreading to assets like BTC.
Brothers, do you think the next wave of funds will keep revolving around AI, or is it time for BTC to perform? Let's chat in the comments. $BTC $ETH $SOL Looking back at OKX's 2023 announcement about $CORE: "$CORE is now listed on OKX, deposits are open, and spot trading will begin once liquidity requirements are met." Interestingly, when this is viewed alongside two earlier official CoreDAO messages: in 2022, CoreDAO emphasized a hard supply cap of 2.1 billion tokens plus a transaction burn mechanism; in 2023, CoreDAO highlighted becoming an early $CORE staker; and also in 2023, $CORE started entering mainstream trading infrastructure like OKX.
This actually corresponds to a very clear development path: supply rules → network participation → market liquidity.
But looking back today, what truly deserves study is no longer "which exchange listed it back then," but whether these early designs have ultimately crystallized into long-term value. Because: exchanges solve liquidity; staking solves network participation and security; hard supply solves monetary policy. And what ultimately determines $CORE's long-term value is whether Core can continuously create real on-chain demand and truly connect BTC, BTCfi, users, capital, and infrastructure.
From 2022 to 2023, and now to today, time has given Core a sufficiently long validation period. The real test has never been about having a story, but about what infrastructure remains once the story fades.The overall crypto asset market is under pressure, primarily driven by the Federal Reserve's shift in monetary policy expectations, with risk asset valuations continuously suppressed by macroeconomic factors.
1. Hawkish tone at Jackson Hole breaks rate cut expectations
At the Jackson Hole symposium, Waller firmly upheld the 2% inflation target, rejected easing commitments, and stated that until inflation shows a definite decline, further rate hikes cannot be ruled out. This directly reversed previous market easing expectations. U.S. Treasury yields remain high, the dollar index rebounds, and high-volatility risk asset valuations are under pressure, with ETH and BTC entering a high-level correction phase.
The Fed's policy has shifted to "data-dependent," abandoning fixed forward guidance. Every upcoming CPI, PCE, and non-farm payroll report will amplify market volatility, increasing the frequency of market fluctuations and uncertainty.
2. Persistent inflation stickiness makes the September rate meeting a key risk point
Earlier PCE data exceeded market expectations, with inflation retreating less than anticipated.
The market is beginning to reprice the likelihood of a rate hike in September, and the prolonged high interest rate environment continues to suppress high-valuation risk assets like ETH. As long as inflation does not show a clear downward trend, a liquidity easing market is unlikely to return in the short term.
3. Sustained pressure from U.S. Treasuries and the dollar
The 10-year U.S. Treasury yield remains elevated, representing high risk-free returns, causing capital to flow out of crypto markets and high-risk tech assets into Treasury safe havens.
During the ongoing dollar rebound cycle, crypto assets priced in dollars naturally face downward valuation pressure. In a strengthening dollar phase, ETH is unlikely to experience an independent, sustained major rally. ⚠️Personal market review, for communication only, does not constitute any investment advice
Recently, gold has experienced a typical rollercoaster of a sharp rise followed by a steep fall and an oversold recovery.
In late August, after gold prices surged and faced resistance, influenced by the Fed's hawkish stance and rising US Treasury yields, bulls collectively took profits, leading to a rapid and deep pullback in gold prices. After the market sentiment was fully digested, combined with a weakening dollar and bottom-fishing capital entering, gold has now entered a technical rebound and recovery phase, overall maintaining a wide-range high-level oscillation pattern.
Short-term core logic: Data determines direction, oscillation is the main theme
The biggest uncertainty in the current market is all focused on this week's non-farm payroll data.
- If employment data is strong and wages warm up, the high interest rate expectation will heat up again, and the gold rebound will most likely end, returning to a pressured retracement mode with support levels to be repeatedly tested.
- If employment data cools down, rate hike expectations fall, and US Treasury yields decline, gold prices will continue to rebound, further repairing previous losses.
All short-term rebounds are defined as oversold recoveries, not the start of a new unilateral bull market. There is obvious divergence at high levels, heavy resistance above, with repeated shakeouts and range fluctuations being the main theme in early September. Avoid blindly chasing highs.
Medium to long-term core logic: Solid bottom support, the major trend has not reversed
Short-term interest rate expectation disturbances will only change gold's rhythm, not the medium to long-term upward logic…The day before yesterday I gave up, yesterday I doubled back to take it all back

#财报观察员：博通业绩超预期，Snowflake上调指引
#交易之声：你的经验值得被听到 $FIL 0.7675 long position, 50x leverage, floating profit of 280 points, still holding.
The logic behind this rally is very strong: FIL has risen nearly 20% this week, shorts have been liquidated for 1.5 million USDT, and open interest has surged to around 200 million. Narratively, Filecoin is packaging itself as AI infrastructure—Amazon plans to invest 220 billion USD this year in AI hardware, storage chip prices have increased 235% in a year, and Filecoin says, "My storage has long been built, no need to wait."
Technically, it has already risen above the 100-day moving average, daily chart is bullish, 0.86 is the next key resistance. Breaking through could target 0.90-1.00, failure to hold might lead to a retest of 0.76-0.77.
But there is a risk: RSI has surged above 80 into overbought territory, some traders are already locking in profits and exiting. Open interest has halved from the 450 million peak, indicating less aggressive chasing of highs.
My judgment: the direction is correct, short-term overbought may cause a shakeout. Move stop loss up to around 0.76 to lock in profits, and see if it can push to 0.86.
"Position Review"CZ tweeted: Hot money is withdrawing from the AI sector and flowing back into cryptocurrency. This judgment aligns with the capital flow of ETH—ETH ETF saw a net inflow of $17.91 million today, attracting $520 million over 7 days, with no sign of stopping.
But on the BTC side, Tony still tells the truth: today the ETF had a single-day net outflow of -$241 million, the first negative transfer in several days. This means $BTC spot demand is now "absolutely scarce"; without spot demand, the bull market cannot continue. (Figures 1, 2)
#BTC high-level pullback, gold linkage under test
$ETH is completely not following this script.
Since this rebound broke through the $2256 cumulative address realized price, the price has not fallen back, which will be a strong support. (Figure 3)
Additionally, with the CLARITY Act expected to pass the Senate on September 15, once regulatory clarity is established, the direction of capital flow is already written in the ETF flows.

#FOMC last data set before Friday's nonfarm payrolls
#霍尔木兹风险升温，能源通胀受关注 $ZEC has surged too fiercely this round; the real test is just beginning.
Zcash has been strengthening recently, once reaching around $860 in late August, hitting a multi-year high. Today, ZEC remains above $800, with the latest price around $806 and a 24-hour trading volume exceeding $500 million.
This rally itself is already very strong. The privacy sector is heating up again, coupled with capital expectations brought by spot ETFs, making ZEC a very eye-catching token in the recent altcoin market.
At the same time, U.S. employment data is starting to cool down.
In August, ADP private sector employment increased by only 38,000, below the market expectation of 48,000 and also below the revised 46,000 in July. The real non-farm payroll data will be released on Friday.
What does this mean for ZEC?
If Friday's non-farm payrolls continue to fall short of expectations, the market will bet again on a Federal Reserve rate cut, causing the dollar and U.S. Treasury yields to decline, potentially further improving the funding environment for high-volatility assets.
For ZEC, which has already shown an independent trend, the elasticity might be greater than that of ordinary altcoins.
But caution is needed here.
ZEC has recently surged from below $500 to above $800, an extremely exaggerated increase, with many short-term profit takers as well. Whether it can hold around $800 now is more important than chasing further gains.
If the non-farm data cooperates and ZEC can firmly stand in the $830–$850 range again, the next step will be to watch for a breakthrough of the previous high.
