The probability of a rate hike has soared to 90%, yet the crypto market is rising against the trend! Essentially, this is an extreme short squeeze
⚠️ This is only a market review and does not constitute investment advice
The Fed's rate hike probability has surged to 90%, but BTC, ETH, and $ZEC are strengthening against the trend, completely detached from the risk asset downturn.
In the past 24 hours, the entire network liquidated 176 million in leveraged positions, with shorts accounting for 61.49% of liquidations. ZEC short liquidations are 14 times that of longs. BTC has amassed a huge volume of short positions between 76,000 and 82,000, with short positions above 82,000 surging 43%, nearly 1.95 billion positions are close to liquidation.
The market is not ignoring negative news; rather, the rate hike negative impact has already been gradually priced in with a prolonged decline, and all low-level shorts have been fully rotated with no new selling pressure.
This round of rally has no incremental spot inflow, purely driven by short covering forcing a short squeeze, which is a typical short squeeze scenario and not a bull market restart.
Comparing to the 2023 historical pattern: a prolonged decline before the negative news hits, shorts accumulate, and once the shoe drops, it triggers a short squeeze rally. Once the short positions above are liquidated and no funds follow up, a high spike followed by a drop is highly likely to occur. #本周FOMC揭晓，加息能否落地？ Federal monitoring system hacked, a security incident involving DOGE surfaced: almost no movement on-chain
$DOGE currently at 0.0814, down 3.9% in 24 hours — an hour ago "DOGE data leak" appeared in the incident stream, but the market didn’t react. I'm bearish: if it can't hold 0.0822, it will continue to look for a bottom.
Let's clarify the event — this DOGE is tied to critical infrastructure and the federal monitoring system, but the on-chain DOGE itself was not affected. Two transmission lines — security sentiment suppresses risk appetite, hitting a defensive market: 55 down, 13 up, median -2.641%, long account ratio 2.58 crowded.
The overall market is also dragging — BTC at 76273.94 is below the 7-day moving average of 77240.68. After the event, $DOGE moved from 0.08133 to 0.0814 (+0.09%), the market has not priced it in. Volume ratio 0.71, shrinking volume with a slow decline, no buyers.
Resistance above: 0.0822 (15m SAR flips up) → 0.0828 (1h SAR)
Support below: 0.0796 (Bollinger lower band)
Watershed level: 0.0828, failure to hold above means any rebound is a selling opportunity.
Conclusion: The event does not change the defensive script, more likely to test the lower band with shrinking volume. If rebound at 0.0822 fails to hold, go short, stop loss at 0.0828, first target 0.0796. This report only discusses data, stay tuned and don’t get lost.
$DOGE $BTCThis time, the pressure is getting harder for lawmakers to ignore. A South Korean national petition calling for another two-year delay of the planned crypto tax has crossed 50,000 signatures, triggering referral for formal review by the National Assembly’s relevant standing committee.

Old coin camp breaks down, which is more fragile between ZEC and BCH, and which can rebound first?
#This week's FOMC announcement, will the rate hike land?
Similarly, in the last round of old-timers, $BTC broke 76,000, $SOL followed down, but the fragility of these two old coins, $ZEC and BCH, is completely different.
BTC is the cornerstone, with support at 75,000 below, the most stable among old coins; SOL is high beta, falls sharply but has strong rebound elasticity, belongs to the type that bounces back once it hits the bottom; ZEC is in the anonymous track, has thematic elasticity, funds tend to pick it first when flipping the dip, but during breakdown periods, it pulses and closes in one day; BCH is an old fork, with the weakest narrative, elasticity, and attention, the most fragile among old coins during breakdown periods, no one catches the fall. The resistance ranking is BTC > SOL > ZEC > BCH.
If the market stops falling and the catch-up rally sentiment returns, ZEC will light the fireworks first, BCH will be the last to show some meaning; if it continues to break down, BCH will collapse first, followed by ZEC. For old coin catch-up rallies, rank by alertness; during breakdown periods, avoid the most storyless $BCH.$DELL I should have been involved with Dell for quite a while; this certainty is very high, it is in an overbought phase. Moreover, Dell is essentially an assembly factory, yet its price has risen even more than the hardware. This situation itself is abnormal, and the root cause is still Trump’s endorsement, but all of this is temporary. Executives are selling shares, institutions are selling shares, the company is issuing bonds, its ceiling is almost reached, shorting it is the most certain move.🚨 SUPER BULL MARKET SIGNAL? — CLARITY ACT FACES THE REAL TEST The CLARITY Act is finally reaching a critical moment, but this is not a guaranteed bullish catalyst yet. On September 15, the U.S. Senate is scheduled to vote on the procedural motion to advance the bill. It needs 60 votes, while Republicans hold 53 seats — meaning at least 7 Democrats/independents need to support moving forward. Recent prediction-market pricing has fallen to around 19–20% for passage this year, showing how uncertaiHere's a counterintuitive way to read the sentiment, especially relevant these days. The greed and fear index is still hanging at 68, solidly in the "greed" zone, but look at the market—$BTC has been steadily dropping today, losing the 77,000 mark, and ETH and SOL are following down. Sentiment remains greedy, yet prices are quietly falling; this divergence is the signal to watch out for the most.
After playing cards for over a decade, the table I fear most is when everyone is still caught up in the excitement of the last hand, unaware that chips are quietly slipping away. Retail investors' sentiment always lags price by half a beat: by the time the index falls from greed to panic, the market has often already bottomed out.
Tomorrow night is the FOMC, a binary card revealed on the spot. Don't let the "everyone's still pretty optimistic" vibe make decisions for you—vibes aren't positions, and sentiment can't be a stop loss. What you hold are chips, not moods.#This week's FOMC announcement: Will the rate hike happen?
Brothers, let's focus on tonight's procedural vote (2:15 PM Eastern Time, corresponding to 2:15 AM in China) in the US Senate on the "Digital Asset Market Clarity Act" CLARITY. Many are watching this news closely, so I'll explain its impact on BTC clearly in one go.
First, this is only a procedural vote, not the bill being enacted directly. The vote needs 60 votes to proceed to formal debate. If it falls short, the bill will be shelved, basically no chance this year, and it may be postponed until after the midterm elections or even delayed until 2030.
The core function of this bill is to delineate regulatory authority between the SEC and CFTC, providing clear regulatory rules for the crypto industry.
There are two possible outcomes, corresponding to two market trends:
1. Vote passes (gets 60 votes): This is positive news, the market will interpret it as US crypto regulation becoming clearer, and BTC will likely rally quickly in the short term. But note, this only advances the debate, not successful legislation; after the surge, a pullback due to profit-taking is likely.
2. Vote fails (does not get 60 votes): This is negative news. The market has already lowered expectations for the bill passing, but if the vote fails, regulatory uncertainty will increase again, funds will flee to safety, and BTC will face downward pressure to test lower support.
Currently, market expectations are cautious, with prediction platforms giving only about a 17% chance of passage this year; the market has already priced in some pessimism. This explains why BTC has fallen from the 79,570 high to oscillate around 77,000.
Combining with the multi-timeframe charts we just reviewed, the 4-hour chart shows a weak oscillation after a rally and pullback, the 1-hour chart favors bears, and the 15-minute chart shows a slight short-term recovery. Before and after the news, spikes and violent fluctuations will definitely occur, so contract positions must be strictly controlled.
Try to avoid heavy positions before the news, regardless of long or short, as volatility will be extreme and stop losses easily triggered. If the vote goes smoothly, resistance is around 79,500; if it fails, support is around 74,800.
In short: this vote will decide whether US crypto legislation can move forward and is the biggest short-term macro catalyst for BTC. Once the news lands, the market will move quickly in one direction. $BTC $ETH #AI发展焦虑升温，芯片股集体走弱 #沙特关键输油管道受损，或停运数周 One more note for those who only focus on K-line charts tonight: The U.S. just auctioned a batch of 20-year Treasury bonds with a winning yield of 5.42%, up from 5.20% last time — a jump of more than twenty basis points overnight. In plain terms, the government has to pay significantly more interest to attract buyers for long-term debt.
This is more important than any "big influencer's" trading call. When long-term yields break higher, it quietly increases the denominator in the valuation of all risk assets: stocks, gold, Bitcoin — all are being pushed down by this invisible hand. You might think the price pressure on crypto is from short sellers dumping, but the real gravitational pull is coming from the bond market.
Tomorrow night at the FOMC, everyone will be watching to see if rates are hiked, but the bond market has already voted with real money — borrowing costs are rising and show no sign of easing. Take this into account before deciding whether to chase longs ahead of this binary event.Just yesterday, CLARITY looked like one of the main positive catalysts for the crypto market. Today, the picture is completely different. BTC has fallen below $76K. And this is happening literally before a key vote in the Senate. The reason is simple: Democrats and Republicans have not reached an agreement. Democrats submitted their counterproposal to the latest version of the bill. Republicans rejected it. And now the vote remains on the agenda, but the main question is: are there 60 votes? Interestingly, just yesterday the republi$SOL -3.02% and losing $115 level again.

#SOL #BTC #CryptoPouring cold water on those still chanting "War is bullish for $BTC." Tonight, WTI crude oil surged 4% intraday, hitting $106, triggered by another escalation in the Middle East—reports say the US is preparing to sell $2.8 billion worth of heavy bombs to Israel, while Iran is standing firm without backing down; the fire in the Strait of Hormuz hasn't died out.
According to the old script, safe-haven funds should flow into Bitcoin, right? Wrong. With oil prices shooting up like this, the market's first reaction isn't "buy safe-haven assets," but "inflation will rise again, and interest rates won't come down." Look at the long-term US Treasury yields—they're rising alongside oil prices—that's pricing geopolitical conflict as rate hikes, not as a safe haven.
The chain is: oil up → sticky inflation → high interest rates → gold and Bitcoin both get drained. Don't apply five-year-old instincts to today's market; first watch how the bond market reacts, then decide where to position yourself.$ETH is back under pressure -3.57%
$ETH holding $3.2K support for now. Liquidity below $3.15K looks juicy for a sweep.
If $BTC drops to $75.8K, $ETH could wick to $3.08K-$3.12K fast.
Not a place to long aggressively. Wait for sweep + reclaim.
#ETH #BTC #DailyOrbitDon't mistake a "rebound" for a "reversal"; the more eager you are to bottom-fish, the more likely you are to get cut.
Many people lose money not because of the bear market, but because of "fear of missing out." They see a big bullish candle and think the market has returned, only to rush in and realize they are the ones carrying the weight.
$BTC is currently stuck around 76,000, testing repeatedly. The short-term hasn't broken through, but it's not strong either; $ETH is grinding back and forth near 2450, with selling pressure heavy between 2500 and 2550. The overall market is in one state right now—exhaustion.
As for $FLOCK, it previously surged quickly from 0.068 to 0.074, then soon dropped back below 0.070. It rises sharply and falls decisively; this kind of movement is easily driven by emotions.
I couldn't resist these past couple of days and chased once, only to pay the tuition fee again.
I've slowly come to understand: trade less, observe more. Wait for clear signals before considering action; it's much more reliable than chasing a single bullish candle. A sharp rise doesn't mean it will continue, and a rebound is not a reversal.
#本周FOMC揭晓，加息能否落地？ A super bull signal? The CLARITY Act has passed the challenge, and the real test is just beginning
$BTC $ETH $SOL On September 15, the Senate procedural vote required 60 votes for the CLARITY bill to enter formal review. With 53 seats held by Republicans, at least 7 Democrats had to be recruited to defect. Polymarket's pricing had only a 20% chance of passing. Even if this threshold was crossed, there was still a long way to go before final legislation could be passed.
But the expectations themselves are enough to trade.
$BTC Once regulatory jurisdiction is clarified, the last psychological barrier for institutional allocation is removed. $ETH Compliant DeFi protocols have clear registration paths, and combined with staking and RWA tracks, the catch-up logic is stronger than BTC. $ZEC Privacy narratives have become independent of the broader market strength; Grayscale's ZEC ETF attracted $580 million in two weeks. If funds spill over from the top, the elasticity should not be underestimated.
The knockoff season will not be evenly distributed. ETF funds are highly concentrated in four categories: BTC, ETH, SOL, and XRP. A true "full knockoff season" requires funds to break through the ETF core circle and spread outward. #本周FOMC揭晓, can rate hikes materialize? #CLARITY投票前分歧未解 #BTC现货ETF三日流出近4 $500 million Don't panic
I still remain bullish
The market has already priced in the rate hike expectations fully
Interest rate futures show nearly a 90% probability of a rate hike
Today's round of decline
$ETH looks more like funds trading the bad news in advance
As long as the decision is not more hawkish than expected
It is actually easier to see short covering
But this wave is not all retail selling off
BTC and US stocks are weakening simultaneously
Macro risk aversion and high leverage deleveraging are the main reasons
What really determines the direction
Is still the policy wording after the decision

Only by reclaiming 2438 and 2450
Is there a chance to rebound to 2500
Breaking through 2550 above

Indicating there is indeed support below
But if it breaks below 1100
Beware of a second retest near 1050
—
OKB 110 is the most important level right now
As long as it does not break continuously here
It still belongs to a pullback consolidation after the rise
Rebound first looks at 114.5 to 115
If volume increases and it stabilizes, then look at 118 and 120
—
$ETH I still lean bullish
But I am betting on the expectation gap
Not blindly gambling on a pump by manipulative whales
There is still a chance for a rebound tonight
If there really is a pause in rate hikes or dovish wording
This rebound could be stronger than expected
#本周FOMC揭晓，加息能否落地？
#AI发展焦虑升温，芯片股集体走弱 Opening my position card — that $BTC short position, the coin price kept dropping back tonight, and the paper profit turned green again. But what you should really learn from the comments section isn’t this small floating profit, it’s what I did before entering this week: I proactively cut nearly half of the short position.
Some don’t understand, isn’t the direction right? Why reduce then? Anyone who plays cards knows — tomorrow night’s FOMC is a binary hidden card revealed on the spot. Whether to raise rates or not is now a tug-of-war between the White House and the Fed; no one should pretend they can predict the flip. When facing a binary outcome, the real skill is never about "to play or not to play," but "how much to bet."
Keep the thesis, keep the exposure, but reduce the bet size to a level where even if proven wrong, it won’t cause serious damage. This isn’t cowardice; it’s narrowing risk exposure at the most uncertain moment. You watch whether I make money or not, I watch how much I could lose if I’m wrong.This week's FOMC interest rate meeting is about to conclude. BTC relies on its scarce currency attributes to consolidate market consensus, while ETH depends on its underlying network to support applications, assets, and massive user activity. The economic depth construction logic of the two is completely different. Under the multiple environments of interest rate hike expectations, cooling expectations of the CLARITY Act, and geopolitical disturbances in the Red Sea of the Middle East, these two narratives will also receive different market feedback. BTC's current 76000‑76800 is a key support; if broken, look towards 75000. ETH at 2465 has turned into resistance, with 2380 as the short-term defense level. The macroeconomic shoe has not yet dropped; the risk of market spikes and long-short dual liquidation remains high, so leverage positions must be kept cautious. Who says storage lines are stable tonight? $SNDK short position at 75x leverage, from 1573.33 to 1533.59, floating profit 189.43%. The opening spike had no volume, looks like a fake move.
Trade based on structure: 1570 resistance holds, lows shift downward, active sell orders on the order book, then it's easy to short. High leverage, don't get carried away, defend by following profits.
The real situation: US tech stocks sentiment is diverging, SanDisk moves weakly in tandem, buying pressure didn't catch up, short-term pullback is normal.
Key level ahead is 1530, breaking it looks toward around 1500; holding back at 1560-1570 means consolidation.
Operationally, take profits in batches, keep a light position with moving defense. Wait for the next signal. #本周FOMC揭晓，加息能否落地？ #AI发展焦虑升温，芯片股集体走弱 $BTC $ETH Can't sleep at night, thinking a lot, wondering why I chose this path of no return. Maybe it's disappointment with the current situation, or maybe it's my own greed. People say Chinese are the most conservative, and the country strictly bans gambling, but I actually think Chinese have the biggest gambling nature. Even without a proper casino, they find ways to gamble. Moreover, 80% of families are willing to bet thirty years of their future on a house that's destined to depreciate. Isn't that a kind of gamble too?
Getting off topic, some games you don't participate in, you won't lose. I started studying trading since my freshman year, from stocks to futures, and now to the crypto world. Risks and returns keep getting higher. At first, I purely lost money as tuition, now I tread carefully, often making mistakes.
At the beginning, I was full of passion for trading, watching positions 18 hours a day out of 24, happily rolling over tens of dollars, and even experienced the hardship of receiving margin call emails all night. Now, after opening positions, I’m too lazy to check them, finding trading increasingly boring, yet I can't quit. I want to win, I need to win.
From 3000u to nearly 10 times that now, most of the time I profit relying on intuition and the Martingale strategy, but I never had my own trading system. Maybe half of one. Waiting for my current positions, whether taking profit or stopping loss, I plan to stay out of the market for a month to systematically study and fully build my own system and discipline, no longer chasing high leverage but stable profits.
I know this path is deadly, but I chose it myself. Even the last email will be my own choice.#CLARITY voting disagreements unresolved
The Senate procedural vote is imminent, and the market is already voting with its feet. The probability of passage on Polymarket has dropped from 30% to about 18% this year, and $BTC has fallen from above 79k, now hovering in the 77-78k range.
The points of disagreement are actually just a few, but all hit the core issues. The moral clause is the biggest knot; Democrats insist on restricting officials and their families from profiting from crypto businesses, with the Trump family’s WLFI and $TRUMP being prime targets. The latest compromise version requires major interests to be divested or placed into a blind trust, but Warren’s side still rejects it, feeling the enforcement loopholes are too large. Banks haven’t been idle either; the eight major banking associations are fiercely opposing stablecoin yields, fearing the withdrawal of $6.6 trillion in transactional deposits. State attorneys general are also protesting, with New York leading 17 states in opposition, feeling that state-level enforcement authority is being undermined.
The procedural vote requires 60 votes; Republicans hold 53 seats, so at least 7 Democrats need to be swayed. Currently, negotiations are ongoing, but no consensus has been reached.
For holders, the short-term word is: wait. Passing the vote doesn’t mean the bill will be enacted; there are amendments and House coordination ahead. If the vote fails, uncertainty will directly extend beyond the election. BTC is now much more correlated with legislative progress than on-chain data; altcoins are worse off, with discounts widening. Don’t rush to bet on direction; wait for the vote count first.
#CLARITY voting disagreements unresolved #本周FOMC揭晓，加息能否落地？ @OKX中文 $ETH fluctuated between 2400-2550 for several days, then sharply surged to 2615 after yesterday's data release, triggering a long liquidation and sweeping liquidity. The rise was fast, and the fall was just as quick, with everything dumped back to the original position within an hour. Today, it even pierced through the long defense at 2400, dropping all the way down to 2387.
I held short positions for several months, from 1800 to 2450, and now I'm starting to see floating profits and making money. When some ask why I reduced my position even though I predicted a further drop, it's because my position hit my risk control limits. The shorts held firm; this rally is over, and the bull market is still far away. $BTC $ZEC 🇺🇸🟠 Bitcoin’s bigger story isn’t just buying.

#BTC #Bitcoin #Crypto #OKX #Orbit ⛳Brief analysis of short-term BTC and ETH market trends
On the eve of the FOMC decision, the two major coins maintained high-level consolidation and convergence, with volatility compressed, awaiting news to choose their direction.
$BTC
The current price is between 76,800 and 77,500.
Resistance: 77,600-78,100, strong resistance 80,000-80,600;
Support: 75,700, key resistance at 75,000; a break opens downside potential to look at 70,500-67,000.
Multiple attempts to break 80,000 but fail to hold steady, ETF funds have temporarily flowed out, and institutions are on the sidelines; There is buying interest between 76,000 and 76,500, making it more resistant to declines.
$ETH
Linked to Bitcoin, with greater volatility. Current price is 2470-2490.
Resistance: 2520-2550, 2550 is strong resistance at the 50-week moving average;
Support: 2400 is the life-or-death line; a breakout triggers long liquidation, downside target 2350-2300.
Although ETH-ETFs saw net inflows, short-term momentum weakened, and bearish conditions are likely to pull back more than BTC.
Three types of deductions:
1. Dovish speech: After all negative news was released, ETH rebounded, showing stronger resilience;
2. Neutral statement: continue to shake the market back and forth within the range, with frequent pin insertion;
3. Hawkish stance: BTC tests 75,000, ETH falls below 2,400 and accelerates downward.
Practical tip: Don't bet on one side in advance; focus on Powell's 02:30 AM press conference, strictly control leverage.
Do you prefer a rebound after the decision or a breakout downside? #本周FOMC揭晓, can rate hikes materialize? Frog $PEPE is still alive, but the meme throne has changed owners, and this ranking list is even more ruthless than the K-line!
Opening today's meme market cap list, the new face for me, Meme GRAM, glaringly ranks 21st, with a market cap already twice that of $PEPE;
BONK rose 2.75% in one day, PENGU up 2.7%, SPX up 3.1%, even SHIB gained 2.45%—on this day of collective celebration in the meme sector, PEPE slightly fell 0.77%, with a market cap of $1.43 billion, sliding down to 45th place. Is it ironic?
PEPE has actually risen 31% over 30 days, but rankings only recognize market cap, not hard work.
The iteration law of memes is ruthless: in 2023, PEPE personally pushed DOGE off the traffic throne; this year, new kings have started pushing PEPE out. Every 4-6 months, a batch of new faces replaces the old—this cycle has been verified countless times over the past three years.
But the frog’s foundation remains: 580,000 holders, daily trading volume at the $80 million level, no unlocking, fully circulating with zero VC chips—one of the rare meme tokens without hidden selling pressure.
Kuzi believes that money in the meme sector flows like water; when the sector rises, the short-term king emerges where the money flows;
but those who live long are never the ones who rise the fastest, but the most stubborn communities. $PEPE is now stuck between two fates: either completely fade away in rotation, or rise again with the next full-sector rally. History has already given it the latter script!一觉醒来，两个仓位没了，账户从浮盈翻成负数。 如果睡前那波拉升是诱多，那么凌晨四点的下杀就是一次标准的杠杆清洗，对吗？ 睡前明明还在赚，几小时后却倒亏。ETH 跌破 2600 后直接插针，盘中振幅接近 5%。ZEC 跌破 1200 跟着往下砸，OKB 也从水上被拖到水下。没看到明确新闻，时间点又卡在利率会议前后，这种"无消息下跌"往往比有消息更值得警惕。 我复盘下来，这更像衍生品端的结构性挤压，而不是现货叙事崩了。价格先被推高，吸引追多仓位堆积，然后一波快速下挫触发止损和强平，形成连锁卖出。BTC 在 75500、ETH 在 2300、OKB 在 105 这些位置，都是情绪和杠杆的敏感带，不是随便画的线。 偏多的逻辑还在：只要 BTC 守住关键支撑，ETH 在 2300 附近止跌，这波下杀可以看作杠杆出清，反而让后续上涨更轻。资金费率如果快速回归中性甚至转负，说明多头被洗掉，反弹时抛压会小很多。 但风险也很直白。利率会议前，市场对加息的预期还没完全定价，任何鹰派信号都可能再触发一轮去杠杆。山寨的脆弱点更明显，ZEC、OKB 这类品种深度不够，一旦大额强平出现，跌幅会被放大，恢复也更慢。SK Hynix gave the answer today: 50x short, opened at 1261.19, 1234.78, +104.70%. The earlier spike up had no volume and was directly suppressed.
The logic is pressure confirmation plus increased selling pressure, light leverage short, no betting on spikes. The background is fading sentiment, slow sector rotation, and average support.
In terms of operation, move positions defensively, take partial profits; wait and watch for pullbacks or weak rebound signals, no chasing.
Short-term support is expected around 1230, with more room if broken; if it stands back above 1260, it will turn to consolidation.
Further moves will be discussed when the rhythm is right, steady and slow. #本周FOMC揭晓，加息能否落地？ #AI发展焦虑升温，芯片股集体走弱 $BTC $ETH Israel is assisting Saudi Arabia in gathering intelligence against the Houthi forces, aiming to maintain freedom of navigation in the Mandeb Strait. Low-profile intelligence cooperation is underway between Israel and Saudi Arabia, signaling new changes in the regional security landscape. The Mandeb Strait is a critical global shipping route; if the conflict escalates, shipping through the Red Sea could be obstructed, potentially driving oil prices higher and further fueling global inflation expectations, which would reinforce the market pricing for the Federal Reserve to maintain tightening. Currently, the crypto market still classifies BTC and ETH as risk assets. Geopolitical news initially tends to trigger deleveraging sell-offs, and the safe-haven narrative is unlikely to take effect immediately. BTC is positioned in the key support range of 76000‑76800; a decisive break below would target 75000, with resistance at 78500‑80000. ETH’s 2465 level has shifted from support to resistance, with 2380 as the short-term defense level, and its price action is highly correlated with Bitcoin’s market. The market is currently under multiple pressures: besides the Red Sea geopolitical risk, expectations for the CLARITY Act to pass this year have cooled, the probability of a Fed rate hike in September remains high, and the FOMC meeting is approaching. With multiple uncertainties converging, there is increased risk of sharp price spikes and losses on both sides, so contract leverage must be strictly controlled. It is not suitable to heavily speculate on short-term moves driven by geopolitical news.$ETH $BTC have already priced in part of the expectation that the "bill might fail" in advance, with BTC previously dropping to over 76,000 USD; the market's expectation for the CLARITY Act to pass within the year has clearly declined. The process is to see the official vote → wait for the vote count results → observe BTC's first reaction → then do a second confirmation.
This Senate procedural vote itself does not mean the bill will ultimately become law; there are still amendments, final votes, and House procedures to follow.
Good news but no price increase, for example: 60 votes pass BTC: 77,000 → 78,000 → 78,300, then suddenly drops back to 77,500, indicating that the good news has already been bought in advance, and after the announcement, some sell off.Starship is about to do orbital work on its 14th flight, and it will also deploy Starlink V3 along the way.

A rocket project, iterated to the 14th flight, has completely torn up the words "test flight" and started taking official transport orders. This pace, if it were a crypto project, by the 14th time it should have released the 14th version of its whitepaper.
A follow-up question: how can it be so fast? I guess it’s just two words—learning from failures. The previous explosions were all just data.
What crypto has always lacked is not stories, but people who throw the story on the ground and pick it up to keep going.
Does this Starship wave count as pulling the four words "long-termism" out of a PPT and giving them a beating?
#汇丰上调SpaceX目标价，长期估值分歧加剧 $HYPE Surface negative factors are piling up, yet the market refuses to fall, which in itself is a signal.
The procedural vote on the CLARITY Act early tomorrow morning requires 60 votes; Republicans hold 53 seats, so they need to secure 7 Democratic votes. Polymarket gives the passage probability only 32%, but over the weekend Republicans swallowed 126 Democratic amendments in one go, even loosening Trump's ethics provisions. Bernstein's report states bluntly: the market's pricing of the bill's progress is bearish, and any positive surprise is "not priced in."
Looking at the Federal Reserve, CME interest rate futures show the probability of a rate hike soaring above 90%, and HSBC even revised its forecast to two hikes within the year. But BTC has been sideways between 76,000 and 80,000 for three weeks, with every dip bought back. What does this indicate? The expected drop hasn't happened; capital is voting with its feet.
Either the market is already sensing the bill will pass, or the rate hikes themselves are an overhyped smokescreen. If big money really wanted to exit, it would have done so earlier, not still defending the market the day before negative news lands. Market action is more honest than vote predictions.

#CLARITY投票前分歧未解 BTC retraces to 76,000, but mining stocks don't fall together: Who is voting first for the market, MARA or RIOT?
$BTC is currently around $76,300, falling from 79,500 to a low of 75,600 today, down nearly 2.7%. Oil prices and US Treasury yields rise together, cooling risk assets first, but there is still support near 76,000. Now it's not about watching a single rebound, but whether 75,500 will be repeatedly tested; only by holding and reclaiming 77,000 can it qualify to test 78,500 again.
$MARA is about $11.40, down only 0.9%; $RIOT is about $20.32, down about 3%. Both follow BTC, but their performance differs because mining stocks are never "more than twice BTC": electricity costs, network difficulty, financing, and expansion speed all cut the coin price gains differently. MARA's stronger resistance shows short-term funds are still picking elasticity, while if RIOT fails to reclaim 20.8, the weakness is not over.
Bulls look for BTC to hold 75,500, MARA to stand back above 11.45, and RIOT to recover 20.8; bears watch if BTC breaks below 75,500 and whether mining stocks increase volume simultaneously. BTC decides the water level, mining stocks decide risk appetite. Truly strong mining stocks don't run fastest when prices rise, but refuse to make new lows first when BTC retraces.Don't check meme coins at dawn, which of these four small coins can let you sleep peacefully?
#本周FOMC揭晓，加息能否落地？
$HYPE 79.66, the most storied among these four, previously a star repaying debts, dropped from 89.65. While AI stocks overseas crashed, it rose nearly 1% against the trend, indicating that after a big drop, there really is capital buying above the critical 77.5 level. The 97% protocol revenue used for buybacks is true, but revenue has declined for four consecutive quarters as well. Holding 77.5 means there is room for recovery.
$BICO around 2 cents, with real demand for account abstraction and wallet simplification, the sector is not bad, but the token has never attracted capital attention. When the market rises, it barely follows; when it falls, it falls more. Before two major events, such fringe coins are easiest to be dumped first, so avoid forcing trades.
$BEAT 0.075, a micro-cap meme coin that has dropped 99% from its peak, with a market cap of only 25 million, down 37% in 7 days, and volatility over 100%. With two big risks hanging, this kind of gambling table is easiest to be overturned. Don't mistake this rebound for a bottom; play with very small positions.
$RE 0.45, a small DeFi insurance RWA, market cap 71 million, volume 5 million, the most solid logic but the thinnest liquidity. Stay put until the risk passes; don't expect it to move before the risk lands.
Four small coins, four ways to sleep: HYPE has a bottom and can be held, BICO waits for narrative, BEAT is pure gambling—don't hold heavy positions, RE waits for the risk and stays put. HYPE can have a larger position, others try small positions for trial and error. The market had weak hands today.
Every level that held through the morning got given up by evening.Crowd moved, price followed.
Oil above $109 and US10Y pinned near 5% are the real pressure, not Clarity Act. $XAU slipped too, $DXY firmed up as cash got the bid. A Fed hike that's 90% priced doesn't shock anyone whatever's stretched this far usually snaps back in a day or two.
Nothing changed on my side. No exits, no adds. Trend hasn't broken, plan hasn't either.
$BTC $ETH #FOMCRateCallThisWeek $ZEC Recently, the market index has been under pressure, while altcoins are repeatedly battling with high volatility, and liquidity is clearly contracting. For traders, this environment is often more challenging than a simple decline; chasing highs and selling lows can easily lead to repeated losses due to sharp fluctuations.
Currently, the price is around $1,130.13. On the surface, the price still appears relatively strong, but the capital data has already shown a significant divergence. The 24-hour trading volume reached $1.193 billion, while the net outflow of volume and price is as high as $828 million.
This structure of high trading volume combined with large net capital outflows requires close attention to the loosening of high-level chips. Although the current price has not experienced an extreme drop, selling pressure above is continuously releasing, approaching a phase of volume-driven pullback and high-level chip distribution.
Therefore, $ZEC is more inclined to wait for a rebound before shorting.
It is more suitable to wait for a pullback to confirm support before participating, treating it as a short-term trend trade.
Direction: Short
Entry: Wait for a rebound near $1,160, confirm resistance, then enter.
Stop loss: $1,195, strictly enforce stop loss.
Target: First target $1,080; if weakness continues, gradually take profit near $1,050. A rebound is not a signal to add positions; tolerance is.
1. $ETH: Weak oscillation, leave room first
$ETH fluctuates around 2480, with 1-hour MA10 and MA20 still pressing from above, short-term bias is weak. After reducing positions at noon, the remaining short positions have expanded tolerance. If it rebounds again to 2520–2560, I will watch the strength and gradually buy back. The cost can be raised, but tolerance must not be pressed back.
2. $BTC: Key levels determine the rhythm
$BTC fell from 79500 to around 76900, with short-term moving averages on the 1-hour chart trending down. If 77000 continues to break, watch the previous low at 75866. There is room in the current position, so there is room to operate. If it continues to fall, hold on; if it pulls up, find a position to add. This short position is being built slowly.
3. Macro: FOMC and chip stock disturbances
This week’s FOMC announcement, whether the rate hike will land remains a variable; AI development anxiety is rising, chip stocks collectively weaken, and risk appetite is suppressed. The more the market fluctuates, the less you should fully load your positions. Short positions are not predictions but waiting for the market to give a position; adding positions is not impulsive but when tolerance is still sufficient.
Don’t gamble on a single breath, only trade with a fallback.

Solana's latest transaction upgrade increases the data capacity of individual transactions from 1,232 bytes to 4,096 bytes.
That might sound like a boring technical update.
It isn't.
More transaction capacity can give developers more room for complex operations such as multi-step trades, wallet approvals and privacy-related proofs.

$ETH is heavily about programmable infrastructure.

The interesting question isn't which chain has the best narrative.

Key information about the vote:
· This is a procedural vote (cloture), not the final passage. 60 votes in favor are required to end debate and proceed to full Senate consideration.
· The Republicans hold only 53 seats, so at least 7 Democrats or independents must defect. The latest vote estimate is 57–43, 3 votes short.
· If passed, the full Senate debate can last up to 30 hours, with a final vote requiring 51 votes.
Latest developments: SEC Chair Atkins has publicly urged Congress to advance the bill and stated that regardless of the vote outcome, the SEC will independently push regulatory modernization through "Project Crypto." However, the attorneys general of New York and 17 other states have jointly opposed the current text, arguing it would weaken states' enforcement power against crypto fraud, creating additional obstacles.
Before the vote, BTC is fluctuating between 76,000 and 77,000, and the market is not pricing solely around the bill. If passed, the short-term outlook is bullish; if not, altcoins and crypto stocks may react more sharply. Be sure to manage your positions! $BTC #本周FOMC揭晓，加息能否落地？ 📈ETH后市走势预判
$ETH 波动率明显大于BTC，行情高度绑定美联储决议，2400美元是多空生死线。
🔴压力：2520‑2550（50周均线强压），突破看2600‑2700；2720‑2820堆积大量套牢抛压 。
🟢支撑：2400第一道防线；跌破看2350‑2360，失守后下一目标2300。2405下方有大量多头合约，破位容易连环清算。
三种情景推演
✅偏鸽情景：加息落地但表态暗示收紧接近尾声。
ETH借利空出尽反弹，站稳2550，进攻2650‑2700。ETH‑ETF持续净流入，会放大反弹弹性。
⚠️中性情景：维持区间2360‑2550震荡。
讲话不偏不倚，宏观悬而未决，继续随大饼来回洗盘，插针频繁，很难走出单边大行情。
🔴偏鹰情景：强调通胀风险，保留继续加息选项。
若有效跌破2400，多头结构受损，触发杠杆踩踏，下探2350甚至2300附近。
中期逻辑
利好：ETH‑ETF资金逆势流入、质押锁仓，供给收缩；
风险：高利率持续、大盘走弱时，ETH回撤幅度通常大于BTC。#本周FOMC揭晓，加息能否落地？ #CLARITY投票前分歧未解 🚨 CAPITAL IS ROTATING — NOT MOVING EQUALLY.
The latest ETF data shows a clear divergence:
🟠 $BTC → -$462.7M last week
🔵 $ETH → +$197M
🟣 $XRP & $SOL → continued selective demand
Bitcoin’s 3-week inflow streak ended, while ETH extended its inflow run. 👀
This still isn’t full altseason confirmation.
But capital isn’t disappearing — it’s becoming more selective.
The real question: where does the next wave of liquidity go?
#FOMCRateCallThisWeek #AIAnxietyHitsChipStocks $ETH
If 2470 doesn't hold,
I am more inclined to continue looking for support at 2450 or even 2435.
If Ethereum can climb back above 2500,
and break through 2520–2540 with volume,
then there is a chance to challenge 2560–2600 again.
So don't rush to guess the bottom now.
If it can't get above 2500, the bias is still bearish;
if 2470 breaks, the bears may accelerate;
only by firmly standing above 2540 can the trend truly reverse.
For short-term trading, I would currently choose to short on the rebound,
rather than chasing shorts around 2480. Late-night funds continue to seek resilience; which will open space first among BTC, BICO, and SLX?
#BTC现货ETF三日流出近4.5亿美元
BTC still determines the overall market risk appetite. What’s more important now is whether the lows can continue to hold during the consolidation process. If $BTC retraces with reduced volume and active selling does not significantly increase, it indicates the chip structure remains stable; subsequent volume breakout above recent resistance and quick stabilization will encourage funds to spread toward higher elasticity directions. Conversely, repeated failed rallies require caution for prolonged consolidation.
BICO focuses more on chip concentration and trading changes. The longer the sideways period, the more attention should be paid to the sustainability after the breakout. If BICO’s lows keep rising and active buy orders gradually increase, it shows funds are pre-absorbing the sell orders above; if $BICO can maintain above the resistance zone after a volume breakout, a second acceleration phase is likely. A quick drop back warns of profit-taking risk.
SLX currently emphasizes volume-price coordination before the breakout. If the price keeps approaching the upper range with moderate volume increase, it indicates short-term funds are actively testing the market. If $SLX further expands volume on breakout and the retracement holds the original resistance zone, the trend strength will significantly improve; if the sharp rise lacks volume or the price quickly falls after a spike, sustainability is limited.
Looking upward, watch for three signals: BTC stabilizing, BICO breaking out, and SLX expanding volume; downward, watch if BTC’s structure loosens first and which of BICO or SLX falls back to the consolidation zone first. The real focus is on the direction that can continue absorbing sell orders after the breakout.SpaceX officially announced that starting from its 14th flight mission, Starship will conduct orbital flights, carrying Starlink V3 satellites and other commercial payloads into space. This marks Starship's transition from suborbital technology validation to formal orbital payload deployment. The Starlink V3 satellites have significantly enhanced bandwidth capabilities and are an important carrier for SpaceX's advancement of space AI computing infrastructure, bringing strong sentiment catalysts at the industry level. However, industry benefits alone are unlikely to counteract the current macro pressures on the crypto market, which remains cooled by expectations around the CLARITY Act and the rising probability of a Fed rate hike in September. BTC is currently oscillating in the key support range of 76000‑76800; a decisive break below will target 75000, with resistance at 78500‑80000 above. ETH's short-term 2465 level has shifted from support to resistance, with 2380 as an important defense level; its movement is highly correlated with BTC. AI-related crypto themes will experience short-term sentiment fluctuations driven by aerospace AI narratives, but market control still lies with interest rate and regulatory expectations. With the FOMC meeting and crypto legislation votes approaching, multiple uncertainties coexist, increasing the risk of market spikes and double-sided liquidation. Contract leverage must be strictly managed, and it is unwise to heavily speculate on the market based solely on industry news. $KO 🟠 $BTC 比特币当前杠杆水平相对平稳，综合未平仓合约（OI）约 30.1亿美元，资金费率约 +0.0060%。整体来看，多空情绪暂时没有出现明显极端，市场更像是在等待下一轮催化剂。 🔵 $ETH | $USD1 ETH 仍需要观察能否跟随 BTC 稳住结构，而稳定币流动性也值得关注。FOMC 决议临近，宏观消息可能放大短线波动。 🛢️ WTI 原油 WTI 日内上涨约 3.28%，105美元成为当前重要分水岭。若价格能够放量站稳 105 上方，市场可能进一步关注 110–115美元区域。 ⚠️ 不过油价 RSI 已进入超买区，同时中东能源供应与沙特输油设施受损相关消息正在增加市场对供应风险的敏感度。油价若持续走强，也可能重新推高通胀担忧，并影响市场对美联储政策路径的定价。 📌 BTC 看杠杆，油价看供应冲击，FOMC 看流动性。 现在最重要的不是猜下一根 K 线，而是等待 价格 + 成交量 + OI 给出确认。 #FOMCRateCallThisWeek #AIAnxietyHitsChipStocks #SaudiOilPipelineDamagedBitcoin has recently entered a clear phase of low volatility compression, with Bollinger Bands continuously narrowing and Band Width dropping to lower levels. This structure often indicates the market is accumulating momentum, but compression alone cannot determine the direction of a breakout. Especially with the FOMC rate decision approaching and increased sensitivity to macro liquidity, once BTC breaks through with high volume, the market could expand rapidly. 📈 Breaking above key resistance → bullish momentum may accelerate 📉 a break below short-term support → leveraged liquidations may amplify the downside. Now, the more important thing is not to guess the direction, but to observe: whether price + volume + Open Interest are confirmed simultaneously. A major rally may be approaching, but before confirmation signals appear, I prefer to remain patient and avoid blindly chasing at the end of compression #BTC #Bitcoin #FOMC #CryptoMarket #DailyOrbitThe yield on the US 20-year Treasury continued to rise after the auction, increasing by 5.09 basis points to 5.418%. Demand for long-term US Treasury auctions was weak, further raising the fiscal risk premium. The rise in long-term yields pushes up the discount rate for global assets, putting pressure on risk asset valuations. The market is further pricing in the possibility that the Federal Reserve will maintain tightening or even raise interest rates. The FOMC meeting is approaching soon, and the probability of a rate hike in September remains high. The continued surge in long-term US Treasury yields will increase the cost of leveraged funds in the market, suppressing high-beta crypto assets such as BTC and ETH. BTC is currently oscillating in the key support range of 76,000–76,800. If long-term yields continue to rise, the risk of breaking support increases, with a downside target of 75,000 and resistance at 78,500–80,000. ETH’s short-term 2,465 level has turned from support to resistance, with 2,380 as an important defense level, and its movement closely follows BTC. Coupled with the cooling expectations for the passage of the CLARITY Act within the year and multiple macro variables converging, the risk of market spikes and double-sided liquidation is rising. Contract leverage must be tightened, and caution is advised when speculating on one-sided trends. $KO #本周FOMC揭晓，加息能否落地？ 🎉 $ETH H-bearish scenario scenario: $2400 is the first line of life and death #FOMC announcement this week, can rate hikes materialize?
The fuse for a macro perspective
Once the FOMC releases hawkish statements, it will raise the financing costs for risk assets. Currently, the market is pricing in a 25bp rate hike at 86%, and the decision numbers are just the groundwork; what really killed the market is Powell's rhetoric at the press conference.
Technical vulnerabilities lie beneath the surface
ETH failed all three times to break through the 2550-week resistance line, and with the 50-week moving average added to this area, the suppression is extremely strong.
The 2723-2822 range has accumulated a large number of historical trapped chips, and every rebound faces selling pressure from unevenness.
Downlink path simulation
✅ Level 1: The daily chart effectively breaks below 2400, directly testing 2387 (lower boundary of the bull flag).
⚠️ Liquidation risk: Over $1.21 billion in long positions have settled below 2405; a breakout could trigger a chain of liquidation and a stampede.
✅ Level 2: Confirm breakdown of 2350-2360, short-term bullish structure declared invalid, next target 2300.
Turn to Empty Confirmation Signal
RSI has already shown bearish divergence, prices have fallen below the 9-day and 21-day moving averages, and bullish momentum continues to weaken.
If prices continue to consolidate sideways but the RSI keeps falling, it is an important warning that a downward trend is beginning.
The risk of inserting a needle on the eve of the rate meeting is high; do not heavily position early to bet on a breakout; wait for market signals to confirm before making a decision.
Do you think the life-or-death line at 2400 can be held tonight? #本周FOMC揭晓, can rate hikes materialize? Two Robinhood engineers have been sued for ambushing Hyperliquid's perpetual contract before the launch announcement, each earning over $50,000.
I've held $HYPE for almost a year, and seeing this actually makes me laugh a little. Previously, insider trading required a Cayman account or offshore shell, but now on-chain perpetual points are just a few clicks, and the threshold is so low that engineers can easily get started.
But the prosecutor's statement is crucial: perpetual contracts traded on-chain still count as financial instruments and are held accountable. Previously, people thought on-chain anonymity and no regulation were common, but now the Ministry of Justice directly tells you that anonymity does not equal exemption from liability.
For long-term holders, this is not bad news, but qualitative behavior. Hyperliquid is treated as a legitimate market, even insider trading is handled under securities and commodities laws.
As for those two, trading 50,000 for up to 30 years is a ruthless odds than any perpetual I've ever seen.
