$TRIA tokens are facing a massive token unlock recently, with a large amount of chips flowing from team and early investor addresses into exchanges. Coupled with the overall altcoin market outflow in late September, the buying support for low market cap tokens is extremely weak. Amid spreading panic, holders rush to sell, and the price has dropped continuously from around 0.0053, breaking key support levels.
Following the trend, shorted TRIAUSDT perpetual contracts on OKX. Opened position at an average price of 0.005308 with 20x leverage, currently holding, marked price dropped to 0.004144, floating profit of 438.58%.
The unlock wave triggers continuous selling pressure. However, the 20x leverage has limited tolerance, and small tokens are prone to sudden spikes and rebounds. Avoid blindly chasing shorts and pay attention to risk control. $DOGE $SOL #美伊3小时会谈释放积极信号？ , and today it crashed as expected. Fortunately, not many brothers touched it. The attitude remains the same as a few days ago: don't touch it! Touching it means becoming a bag holder: 1. The mainnet is shut down, so the fundamentals are gone. Moreover, this chain was hacked by North Korean hackers for 100 million in 2022, and in August this year, 23 million was sold due to a contract vulnerability. There is no sign of it coming back to life. 2. There are no whales taking over on-chain: no accumPouring cold water on the itchy-handed brothers: $BTC has dropped all the way from 86,000 today, with the RSI on the 1-hour and 15-minute charts hitting extreme oversold levels. In the comments, some are already shouting "so much drop, time to bottom fish," while others are yelling "breakdown, go short." To both sides, I advise: extreme oversold is neither a bottom-fishing signal nor a position to add shorts. When playing cards, you wouldn't go all in just as your opponent is clearly about to counterattack. The tail end of oversold is the easiest place for a double whammy spike. The most comfortable approach is to let it rebound first, wash out the floating chips, then see if it continues to fall or truly reverses. Holding no position is also a position.Top traders on the OKX profit leaderboard have recently shown divergence in their positions. The private funds of Ten Boss and Eleven have taken profits and exited their previous short positions in XRP, BTC, SOL, and other assets. Judging by their trading rhythm, these shorts were entered early, with accumulated floating profits in place. After a phase rebound in the related assets, the risk-reward ratio of holding on declined, so taking profits is a routine position management move.
Nine General continues to hold long ETH positions. ETH has recently maintained its structure above $2700, with ETF funds continuously flowing in, but it also faces selling pressure related to FTX/Alameda. Nine General’s decision to hold may be based on a judgment of ETH’s mid-term structure rather than short-term speculation.
The divergence between the two reflects the current market state: some short funds are beginning to retreat, but the bulls have not yet formed a unified offensive stance. Changes in positions on the profit leaderboard only represent individual choices and do not constitute directional signals. The key is to track whether these positions gradually exit or are restructured. $BTC spent weeks building short liquidity above $83K, then erased most of it within a few days.
Now the market is shifting attention to the remaining long positions.
The 4H bull flag lost the $85K support level, bringing liquidity between $81K and $83K back into play.
Holding the breakout zone means this is just Bitcoin rebalancing after the squeeze before a higher move.
Losing it would open the chart for a deeper reversal back to the $70Ks range.As the U.S. election cycle progresses, the hype narrative around political Meme coins is gradually weakening. Competitor Political Meme coins (such as LAPTOP) have not brought in incremental funds but have instead diverted market attention. The $TRUMP token lacks practical applications and ecosystem support, relying purely on political hype for speculation. After the hype fades, the token's value reverts to its original state, and the historical seasonal downturn in September only makes things worse.
Following the narrative failure, I shorted the TRUMPUSDT perpetual contract on OKX. Opened the position at an average price of 2.22 with 50x leverage; the mark price is 1.967, with an unrealized profit of 569.81%.
Political hype fades and value returns. However, the battle between bulls and bears is intense, and daily volatility can easily trigger stop-outs, so avoid full-position operations. $BTC $ETH #美联储官员密集发声，加息还要持续多久？ The hardest part of shorting has never been predicting the direction, but waiting for the macro environment to hand you the bullets. I've been saying these past two days that there's a premise to being bearish on $BTC — interest rates have to cooperate. Tonight the cards are dealt: after the US 5-year Treasury auction, yields broke above 5%, the first time since 2007. With the cost of money this high, the valuation logic for risk assets needs to be recalculated. But on the other hand, the $BTC hourly chart has already plunged into deep oversold territory; shorting at this position only fuels a rebound. Bullets are loaded, but that doesn't mean pulling the trigger now — wait for it to rebound to a decent level, or break key support for confirmation. Low-frequency big bets win with patience. $CORE I've been busy hosting offline clients lately, and haven't even had a moment to check the market.
The liquidation notification popped up, but I didn't have time to click and check it carefully, so it just stayed in my message list.
Only tonight when I had time to open the market did I realize I had already been liquidated, though it was a small loss. Honestly, in this market, that's quite normal, so mentally I'm okay with it.
But what I never expected was that after I was liquidated, $CORE actually surged up directly from the low point.
I believe many traders have experienced this.
When busy with real life, positions quietly close, you exit, and then the market starts moving.
The market never accommodates our schedule; it won't hold your position just because you're busy in real life.
Balancing real business and dealing with crypto market volatility is inherently contradictory.
When you can't devote energy to watching the market, even the best assets with leverage will still ruthlessly enforce the rules.
Reminding myself again: if life is full of trivial matters and you can't focus on the market, leverage positions must be more conservative.
Life always comes first; market opportunities will come again later. #BTC surged to $87000, crypto total market cap returns to 3 trillion #Positive signals from the 3-hour US-Iran talks? #EarningsObserver: Costco Q4 earnings to be announced soon
The market is a cure for itchy hands, attracting impatient traders.
BTC has been tugging back and forth around 86,000, up 13% in four days, touched 87,000, with 84,000 as a short-term defense line. The shorts were just cleared out, but it's still far from the previous high of 126,000—stuck in the middle, neither bulls nor bears can move.
ETH follows BTC, oscillating between 2746 and 2802; only after holding above 2700 is there 3% to 6% room, grinding people down.
USELESS may be named useless, but it’s not vague when it rises, up over 20%, market cap breaking 300 million. The hype from Upbit and Bithumb listings drives people in without logic. But volume is already shrinking; when sentiment retreats, don’t stand on the peak.
ZEC is the sole survivor in the privacy sector, defending 1500 between 1492 and 1505, nearly doubling in 30 days, strong with no friends. Funds are flowing back into privacy concepts, but chasing highs at this level means no mercy on pullbacks.
In short, the market is stuck at a high level, both bulls and bears are uncomfortable. Control your hands, don’t get carried away, wait for the direction to reveal itself. $BTC $ETH $SOL $SKHYNIX followed the US stock index down and pulled back. If tomorrow when the Korean market opens at 8 AM it continues to be influenced by the US stock market and drops below 1326, it is recommended to do T at this position. Reduce some short positions; a rebound is expected, but the rebound will not surpass the short-term high. A downtrend is forming.
We need to see the situation after 3 PM. The US stock market's recovery basically happens around this time.
Also, it's unclear how the US-Iran talks went.
#美伊3小时会谈释放积极信号？ 🔥 The Federal Reserve has been speaking one after another these days, and my only feeling after listening is: this round of tightening may not be truly over yet.
📉 Barkin directly pointed out that over 【60%】 of the PCE index items still have a year-on-year increase of more than 3%; Collins continues to emphasize inflation risks, and Musalem even believes further rate hikes may be needed later. What the market is really struggling with now is no longer "whether to raise rates," but how long the high interest rates will be maintained.
💵 For BTC, short-term pressure is very real. With interest rates staying high and bond yields attractive, the opportunity cost of allocating funds to high-volatility assets naturally rises. Even if ETF funds see large inflows in phases, it is difficult to counteract the persistently tight financial environment alone.
🧠 But looking longer term, the logic is different: the longer high interest rates persist, the more fiscal financing costs and debt interest burdens will increase. How the U.S. ultimately handles this is a policy choice, not necessarily only the "liquidity easing" path.
⚡ So now I prefer to split BTC into two lines: short-term focus on 【interest rates and yields】, mid-term focus on 【fiscal policy, debt, and dollar credit】.
🎯 Don’t panic because of hawkish speeches, nor blindly chase highs because of long-term logic. When the policy path becomes truly clear, the price will naturally provide the answer.
👀 What do you think the market will trade at the next rate decision—continued "rate hikes" or the start of "peak tightening"?
$BTC $ETH $ZEC #美联储官员密集发声，加息还要持续多久？ Today $BTC $XAU $SNDK are all falling. The core reason has been found!!!
Today gold, BTC, and SNDK weakened simultaneously, and the core reason is not independent negative news in all three markets, but a macro interest rate repricing.
The US composite PMI for September rose to 58.4, a new high in over five years, showing the US economy is still very strong; at the same time, cost pressures have also increased. After the data release, US Treasury yields rose rapidly, with the 10Y breaking above 5% again, and the market's expectations for further Fed rate hikes in October intensified.
Interest rates ↑ → USD ↑ → Gold under pressure;
Interest rates ↑ → Risk asset valuations under pressure → BTC falls;
Interest rates ↑ → High-valuation tech/semiconductor sectors under pressure → SNDK gives back gains.
SNDK also has a self-factor: after continuous rises, it surged about 6.8% yesterday stimulated by a bullish institutional report, and today profit-taking appeared, further amplifying the decline.
What really deserves attention today is not gold, BTC, or SNDK themselves, but the 10Y US Treasury yield and the USD.
If the 10Y continues to stay above 5%, the core market trading logic remains “interest rates stay high for longer.”
Be cautious of the bull market trap.🔥 The market suddenly hit the brakes collectively, don’t rush to call a reversal — this looks more like a concentrated rotation after a sharp rise.
📉 $BTC has pulled back from the highs, with around 【84,000】 becoming a key short-term level. The real trouble now is Friday’s big options expiry: about 【$16 billion】 in BTC options expire, with Calls clearly outnumbering Puts. As settlement approaches, hedging adjustments could further amplify market volatility.
⚡ ETH’s retracement is even more pronounced; its high elasticity also turns into high volatility during a downturn. It’s still following BTC for now, and needs to stabilize before it can build momentum again.
🟡 SOL is relatively weaker, not only following the market pullback but also affected by project financing and supply expectations impacting investor sentiment. In a choppy market, capital tends to cut high-volatility assets first.
🧠 So, I’m not defining this drop as a trend reversal yet. Profit-taking after a sharp rise, combined with position adjustments before options expiry, looks more like deleveraging and washing out floating supply.
🎯 Going forward, I’m watching two things: whether BTC can hold 【84,000】, and if capital flows back after options settlement. Manage your positions first, and move only after the direction is confirmed.
👀 Do you think this is a normal shakeout, or has this rally already started to cool down?
⚠️ Personal review only, not investment advice #BTC冲高$87000，加密总市值重返3万亿 #美联储官员密集发声，加息还要持续多久？ 🟠 $BTC + 🔵 $ETH + 🟢 $ZEC | 1H MARKET CHECK
BTC continues to determine the overall direction, ETH is responsible for monitoring market participation, while ZEC acts more like a thermometer for high-risk appetite.📊
What’s truly worth watching now is not just the price, but:
💰 Price → Whether the price continues to hold steady
📊 Volume → Whether volume is increasing accordingly
📈 OI → Whether open interest is healthily increasing
BTC holds steady + ETH/ZEC strengthen together → 🚀 Market breadth expands
BTC holds steady + ETH/ZEC diverge → ⚠️ Capital begins selective rotation
There are also recent changes in capital flow: On September 21, US spot BTC ETF net inflow was about $999M, ETH ETF about $270M; on September 22, BTC and ETH ETFs still recorded positive inflows, and ZEC-related products also saw capital inflows.
Additionally, ZEC was boosted today by news of Europe’s first physically-backed ZEC ETP listing, leading to a significant short-term price increase, indicating that risk capital is focusing on higher Beta assets.
🔥 So the key in the 1H timeframe is not which bullish candle to chase, but to watch: whether BTC holds → whether ETH follows → whether ZEC shows sustainability.
Before confirming the structure, patience > FOMO.
#BTC Repeated losses throughout the week made me reflect on my trading approach. I always rely on (feeling) to read the charts, and almost every trade ends up in a loss. Eventually, I lost 10% of my principal. Even if I now see the trend, I am powerless to recover the previous losses. This post serves as a warning to myself: trading requires patience, patience, and more patience! Last night, while monitoring the market, BTC surged from 81K all the way to 86K, and the group suddenly went quiet for a few seconds, then the message started flooding the screen. Have you noticed that what really makes people anxious isn't the drop, but that when prices rise too fast, you haven't even gotten in yet? To be honest, after this rally, I've actually become more cautious. The price is now stuck between 83K and 86K, like testing and hesitating. The 83K level is quite critical; if it loses, the momentum for this rebound might be weakened. It's not about being bearish, it's about timing. ETH surprised me a bit, firmly holding near 2.75K, and after breaking through 2.66K, its structure hasn't broken down. 2.56K to 2.60K is its defensive bottom line; as long as it doesn't break through, confidence remains. SOL is fluctuating near 118, trying to touch between 120 and 123. If it can hold up, it means the market's risk acceptance is still rising. What is the market trading right now? I think it's trading a kind of "afraid to miss but afraid to chase highs" sentiment. BTC leads the way, ETH is confirming strength, SOL is testing risk appetite. These three each have their own opinions, but together form a sentiment chart. The bullish path is: BTC holds above 83K, ETH holds 2.60K, SOL hits 123, and altcoins may breathe a sigh of relief, with risk appetite continuing to rebound. But the risks are also hidden here. If BTC falls below 83K, ETH will fall below 2.56Many people equate "big gains" with "strength," which is one of the most common misconceptions in trading. True relative strength depends on the alignment of price increase, trading volume, and structural position. $ARB rose 4.43% in 24h with a trading volume of 63.9M USDT, which is eight to ten times the volume of similarly active $SENT and $GIGGLE, indicating stronger capital support. However, structurally it is not perfect: MA5=0.22514 is still below MA20=0.23686, the MACD histogram at -0.00257 is bearish, and RSI is only 45.1, indicating the early stage of recovery after overselling rather than trend confirmation. The lower Bollinger Band at 0.218995 has been a recent defense level multiple times; the current price of 0.2265 is close above the lower band. The amplitude of 30 K-lines is 19.59%, showing compressed volatility. The funding rate of +0.0027% is mildly positive, and the fear and greed index at 71 is in the greed zone, so sentiment does not support a deep drop. Meanwhile, $SENT rose 10.73% but with only 6.4M volume, indicating a small-volume pump; $GIGGLE fell 8.55% with RSI 33.1, the weakest, showing capital clearly concentrating on high-liquidity assets like $ARB. The outlook is bullish; entry reference is 0.2220–0.2270, buying on pullbacks to the confluence zone of the lower Bollinger Band and MA5; take profit 1 at 0.2369 (MA20 resistance), take profit 2 at 0.2547 (upper Bollinger Band); stop loss at 0.2170, breaking below the lower band invalidates the recovery logic.
【Data】Sept. 21 ETF flows show fresh demand across the majors: ₿ $BTC: +$937M–$999M ♦️ $ETH: +$270M 🟣 $SOL: +$26M My read: ₿ BTC → strongest capital magnet ♦️ ETH → institutional positioning 🟣 SOL → higher-risk, higher-beta exposure The bigger signal isn’t just the inflows. It’s where the money is choosing to take risk. Capital rotation could matter more than headline price action from here. 👀 Are we watching the start of another crypto rotation? #ETFflows #CryptoETF #Institutional $BTC $ETH $SOL🧠 A trading discipline I've relearned: choose liquidity first, then direction.
Whether going long or short, I now prefer to focus mainly on $BTC and $ETH.
$SOL and $ZEC can be used as auxiliary observations, but I won't touch coins with poor liquidity and excessively high funding rates just to chase volatility.
Especially targets like $ONE with abnormal funding rates—
The price barely moves, but the funding rate can continuously erode the position.
My friend once lost three times his principal purely due to funding rates on his position cost.
The current market is also worth noting:
₿ $BTC recently broke through $87K, with about $999M net inflow into US spot BTC ETFs on September 21; about $364M inflow remained on September 22. ETH ETFs also maintained positive inflows during the same period.
So now, more important than guessing price direction is:
Look at liquidity → look at funding rates → look at spot capital → then decide direction.
Some trade price,
Some trade funding rates.
I don't want to enter their playing field.
No chasing, no gambling, no fighting high funding rates head-on.
Protect principal first, then wait for real opportunities. 🛡️
#CryptoTrading #BTC87KCryptoCap3T #BTC #ETH #SOL #ZEC #TradingTips Market collectively plunges: Why I strongly advise you not to rush to catch the falling knife right now?
Friends watching the market were probably jolted awake by this sudden collective sell-off.
Bitcoin turned down from around 87,000 and retraced, while altcoins bled heavily. Many people started panicking in chat groups, asking whether to cut losses or to buy the dip.
Frankly, looking at the glaring red candlesticks, what really alarms me isn’t how many points it dropped, but the paper-thin buy depth in the exchange’s order book.
A few days ago, when Bitcoin surged, most of the liquidity in the market was drained, and altcoins themselves were severely hemorrhaging. With such a fragile microstructure, the main players don’t need to dump much; just a few large spot market sell orders pushing the price down will trigger a chain of forced liquidations among longs. Each price drop triggers the system to automatically liquidate more positions, turning into a classic stampede where longs trample themselves to death.
At the moment when the liquidity vacuum is pierced, the deadliest mistake is blindly reaching out to catch the falling knife. Panic selling often has momentum; any slight rebound now is very likely just a trap within the downtrend continuation.
Wait for the bullets to fly a bit longer. Only when you see a volume spike with a long lower wick that flushes out panic sellers and the order book depth thickens again, will it be a safe window for right-side trading.
After tonight’s sell-off, can your spot holdings hold up, or have some of your positions already been liquidated?🔥 The positive news hasn't faded, and the ETF money hasn't left either, yet $BTC first broke through 【85,000】—this is a bit unusual.
📉 The US and Iran talked for about 【3 hours】, Trump said the talks were "very good," and oil prices fell back below 【$100】. According to this scenario, risk assets should have eased, and BTC should even continue to push toward previous highs. But the reality is: after hitting 【87,000】, it fell all the way down, and selling pressure started to become obvious.
💰 What's more interesting is that the spot BTC ETF had net inflows of about 【$1.59 billion】 for three consecutive days. Money is clearly coming in, but the price is going down—indicating the current problem might not be "no buyers," but rather stronger selling pressure above.
🧩 My understanding is that two forces are offsetting each other: one is the real demand brought by ETFs, the other might be profit-taking and position unwinding continuing, plus the end of previous short covering, removing a layer of passive buying.
🎯 So now I’m only watching 【85,000】. A quick recovery today can be seen as a shakeout; if it stays below for a long time, then the previous rise needs to be reassessed.
😂 The bad news is gone, the money has come, but BTC still went down. Looks like the people upstairs aren’t just selling coins—they’re moving the sofa, TV, and fridge downstairs too.
👀 Do you think 【85,000】 can be reclaimed, or is this really the start of looking for support lower?
⚠️#BTC冲高$87000，加密总市值重返3万亿 #美伊3小时会谈释放积极信号？ Not every coin deserves a long or short. My rule now: → BTC & ETH for serious leverage → SOL & ZEC when the setup is clear → Avoid tokens with ridiculous funding rates I’ve seen traders get liquidated not because price moved against them, but because funding kept draining them. Some markets aren’t designed for you to trade the chart — they’re designed to make you pay for staying in. If funding is screaming, I’m staying out. Would you rather miss a trade or bleed funding for hours? 👇 #CryptoTradBTC is pulling back, but yesterday's ETF data shows that funds are still flowing into BTC, ETH, and SOL.
On September 22, the net inflows for U.S. spot ETFs were approximately $715 million for BTC, $162 million for ETH, and $28.9 million for SOL. The inflows for BTC and ETH declined compared to Monday; SOL slightly increased from about $26 million to $28.9 million.
Looking at the recent trading days, BTC has had net inflows for four consecutive days, totaling about $2.306 billion; ETH has had cumulative net inflows of about $576 million over the last three trading days; SOL accumulated about $103 million in the same period. The fund flow direction is consistent among the three, but the absolute amounts cannot be directly used to judge which is stronger due to different fund sizes.
My focus is on today: if after the price pullback, ETF funds continue to flow in, this adjustment is more likely a digestion after a rise; if funds also weaken significantly, the sustainability of the rebound needs to be reassessed. Yesterday's data supports that "funds have not yet withdrawn," but it is not enough to draw conclusions about today's market.
#BTC # eth#sol ₿ $BTC: +$998.95M ♦️ $ETH: +$269.98M 🟣 $SOL: +$26.10M The combined net inflow of the three major assets in one day was about $1.295B, indicating funds have returned to mainstream crypto asset ETFs. Data shows BTC ETFs saw nearly $1 billion in inflows, ETH recorded a net inflow of about $270 million, and SOL received about $26.1 million. 🔎 What deserves more attention from this data is the capital structure: ₿ BTC → Core funds are absorbed Large amounts of capital first flow into BTC, reflecting the market's allocation demand for leading assets. 🏦 ETH → Capital Begins to Spread ETH also saw significant net inflows, indicating that funds are not concentrated solely in BTC. ⚡ SOL → Exposure to Higher Volatility Although SOL is smaller in scale, it still maintains net inflows, indicating that some funds are diverging into higher Beta assets. 💡 Core logic: This does not necessarily mean that funds are leaving the crypto market. It is more like funds seeking opportunities at different risk levels among BTC core allocation → ETH diffusion → SOL and other high-beta assets. 📌 Next, focus on whether ETF net inflows can continue, and whether BTC, ETH, and SOL will continue to synchronize #USIranTalksProgress #CostcoQ4EarningsWatch $BTC $ETH $SOL #EOne trading lesson I had to learn the hard way: → Long/Short: BTC & ETH first → SOL & ZEC: only when the setup makes sense → Extreme-funding tokens: I stay away. If funding is eating your position before price even moves, you’re playing the wrong game. I’ve seen traders lose repeatedly—not because their direction was wrong, but because funding quietly drained them. Some markets are built for traders. Others are built to farm traders. I’d rather miss a pump than become someone else’s funding fee.Trading rule I re-learned:
Long / Short only BTC & ETH.
SOL, ZEC is okay.
Never touch tokens like ONE with insane funding.
My friend lost 3 times on funding fees alone.
Some people hunt funding, not price.
Avoid their playground.
#CryptoTrading#BTC87KCryptoCap3T $BTC $ETH $ZEC $XPL is currently still under significant supply expectation pressure, with only 2 days left until about 70% of circulating tokens are unlocked. If the unlocking proceeds as planned, the market's circulating supply will see a very noticeable change, and short-term sentiment may come under pressure because of this.📉 But it is important to note: 🔓 Unlocking ≠ tokens immediately entering the market 🏦 Actual selling pressure depends on whether the team, investors, and related token holders choose to release or sell 👀 Therefore, what really needs to be observed is the actual circulating volume and trading volume changes after unlocking. High supply expectations alone are enough to be a short-term risk factor, so trading should remain cautious. 🔥 $HYPE | Key resistance near 100 USD After observing this round of movement, $HYPE seems to have entered a high-level game phase in the short term. The 100 USD mark remains a psychological resistance level in the market, and the daily candlestick structure also shows that upward momentum is slowing down. If it cannot effectively hold above and break through 100 USD, short-term profit-taking or sideways consolidation may occur; conversely, if it breaks through with volume and forms effective support, the market structure may further improve. 📌 The focus now is not to chase the rise but to wait for price confirmation at key levels. #Crypto #XPL #HYPE #TokenUnlock #CryptoMarket #Altcoins$FIL just dropped because the 10-year US Treasury yield surged violently, reaching 5.087%. This means that while corporate orders and business are increasing, costs are also rising faster. The stronger the economy performs, the more confident the Federal Reserve is to continue raising interest rates, and the continued rise in costs makes the market worry that inflation won't come down easily.
For the US stock market, when Treasury bonds offer higher yields to maturity, investors will demand higher returns from stocks. With the same earnings expectations, it becomes harder for capital to accept the original stock prices. At the same time, the cost for companies to issue new debt or refinance maturing debt may also increase, especially for those still borrowing heavily to expand, who will need to allocate more income to pay interest in the future.
Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are also affected by this environment. As the required returns increase and the willingness to bear volatility decreases, the buying pressure willing to chase higher prices may diminish.
So even if the next interest rate meeting hasn't arrived yet, the market can already push up the cost of long-term borrowing. It should not be assumed that the impact of interest rates ended after the last rate hike was implemented. Next, we need to see whether the 10-year yield can fall back or will continue to stay above 5% and keep rising.
If oil prices also rise, the market will need to digest the impact of both increased energy costs and sustained high interest rates simultaneously, making rebounds in the US stock and crypto markets face more resistance. From 28 million to 318 million, more than tenfold.
Bonk Guy says this is a healthy trend of new highs and rising lows, and specifically emphasizes that it’s "different from the topping Meme coins."
I believe that half. The number of holding addresses hitting a new high indicates that there really are newcomers entering, not just old addresses entertaining themselves.
But when both the number of addresses and market cap rise together, it depends on who is driving it. If it’s just newcomers taking over old holdings, that’s turnover, not consensus.
I’m more interested in waiting for one data point: a week when the number of addresses keeps rising but the price stays flat.
That would be the real test.
#BTC冲高$87000，加密总市值重返3万亿 $ZEC $ENA shows you a set of data: In the past 24 hours, long liquidations amounted to $208,600, while shorts only $9,100. All the liquidations hit longs, shorts remain unscathed. The long-short ratio is 0.8932, with shorts dominating. The funding rate is -0.0071%, meaning shorts are paying longs. The price is rising, but longs are the ones getting hit. Do you think this structure is healthy? Market risk appetite is often not confirmed by the rise of a single asset, but by observing whether funds begin to flow synchronously among different mainstream assets. ₿ BTC: Continues to remain strong, fluctuating around $86K, with the $87K area remaining a key short-term resistance. ♦️ ETH: Remains resilient above around $2.7K, with volume and structural changes worth watching. 🟣 SOL: Near the $120 area; if momentum continues to strengthen, it could become an important window to watch market risk sentiment. Looking solely at BTC's rise only indicates Bitcoin's own strength; But when BTC's strength + ETH's trading volume + SOL's momentum all improve, it often more clearly reflects the expansion of capital risk appetite. 👀 This is the combination signal I am currently focusing on: not chasing rallies, but observing whether liquidity truly spreads. #BTC #ETH #SOL #Crypto #RiskAppetite #Liquidity #DailyOrbitElon Musk shared a long article about AI and creators.
I stared at the screen for a long time, honestly feeling a bit tired.
Three years ago, Katzenberg said AI could cut animation costs by 90%, and now it seems that statement is becoming true.
But he said something even more piercing: AI can reason, optimize, and recognize patterns, but true creativity still depends on human taste and intuition.
In short, the tools are getting more powerful, but the people using them are getting more anxious.
It's like when sound films came out, and silent film actors collectively lost their jobs, but the film industry itself didn’t die.
AI won’t make creators disappear, but it will make those who just coast along disappear first.
The same goes for the crypto world; AI narratives have been hyped over and over, but few have truly landed.
What I want to know now is when this wave of AI + content integration will produce something that people actually use.
For now, I’m watching closely, not rushing to bet.

This round of decline resembles a "chain deleveraging" formed after high-leverage positions were repeatedly triggered by stop-losses and forced liquidations. Data shows that in a single hour, crypto market liquidations once reached about $230M, with the vast majority coming from long positions. But the market also has another side: previously, the US spot BTC ETF saw a single-day net inflow close to $999M, marking a strong level since October 2025, indicating institutional capital demand remains worth watching. 📉 The key now is not just "how much has fallen," but whether the $83K–$84K range can hold. If support holds, the liquidation wave may gradually cool; If it continues to fall, the market may enter a new round of deleveraging #BTC #Bitcoin #Crypto #BTC87K #CryptoMarket #LiquidationBelow is a revised version that reads more like a crypto news/market update in Chinese, with added perspectives on funding rates and risk management:
Writing
📌 Revisited the trading rules: what really needs control is not just direction, but also funding rates.
My current approach is simple:
🔸 BTC / ETH: primary long-short trading targets
🔸 SOL / ZEC: worth monitoring, but position size and leverage must be more cautious
🔸 Small coins with high funding rates: avoid as much as possible, especially markets like ONE with abnormal funding rates
The reason is practical.
Some price moves look like chasing price, but in reality, they are being drained continuously by funding rates. A friend once suffered losses three times in a row due to funding rates; price direction wasn’t even the biggest issue.
There is also a type of trader in the market who specifically arbitrages funding rates.
When you enter their strongest battlefield, the competition isn’t necessarily about who judges better, but who can bear higher holding costs.
So trading is not just about:
Price → Trend → Breakout
But also about:
Funding Rate → Open Interest → Liquidity → Liquidation Risk
🚨 Don’t turn yourself into a funding rate “ATM” chasing a market move.
Controlling leverage, managing position size, and avoiding extreme funding rates can sometimes be more important than predicting the next candlestick.

If📰 【Bitcoin Breaks $80,000 Supported by Institutional Funds, Analysts Divided on Sustainability of Rally】
According to BlockBeats, on September 24, Bitcoin recently broke through $80,000 and even touched $87,300. Analysts believe this rally is supported by strong inflows from institutional funds and spot ETFs, but indicators such as trading volume, market breadth, and derivatives positions show differing views on whether the uptrend can continue. K33 stated that Bitcoin's recent pullback magnitude and duration are significantly smaller than the major bear markets in 2013, 2017, and 2021, suggesting the current cycle's low point may have been established. K33 also pointed out that Bitcoin still has room to catch up compared to gold and U.S. stocks. 21Shares believes that the U.S. SEC's introduction of "innovation exemptions" and the CFTC's advancement of related rules...
Institutions are slowly accumulating, while retail sentiment hasn't kept pace; the activity in the group chat is noticeably less lively than the previous cycle. This pattern doesn't look like a broad-based rally but more like big money quietly building positions, and short-term traders chasing highs risk being swept by fees back and forth. Anyone on the same path, are you adding to your positions now or waiting? 👇👇👇
$BTC $ETH $SOL 🔥 This round of market activity is quietly changing the market structure. $BTC has regained near $86K, $ETH has remained around $2.75K, and $SOL is oscillating slightly stronger near $118. Data from September 23 shows that BTC, ETH, and SOL remain in relatively strong territory overall. More noteworthy is the derivatives market: 💥 BTC saw about $262M in short liquidation 📈 in the previous hour; US spot BTC ETFs saw a single-day net inflow close to $999M ⚡. SOL's recent rise has also been accompanied by clear short liquidation pressure. The question now is no longer just "how much more can it rise," but rather: is this a short-term short squeeze triggered by a round of leveraged liquidation, or a new trend formed by capital repricing? 👀 The most important thing to watch next is the strength of support after the pullback. If prices fall but bulls still hold the key area, the market structure will be more worth watching; Conversely, if the rebound fades quickly, it may indicate that this rally still has strong liquidation drivers. 📊 Next focus: price + trading volume + open interest + liquidation data. Reading all together is more meaningful than focusing solely on candlesticks #BTC #ETH #SOL #CryptoTrading #Bitcoin #CryptoMarketJust took a glance at BTC, and I almost slammed my phone on the table.
At 87K, I was like:
"It's steady, waiting for a breakout."
At 84K, I was like:
"It's okay, just a normal pullback."
Then I checked my account again...
Yeah, it's healthier to check the account less often. 😂
The most interesting thing now isn't the price going up or down,
but that the group chat has split into two camps:
One camp:
"Bottom fishing! The opportunity is here!"
The other camp:
"Don't rush, it still has to drop."
And the toughest camp:
"I have no position, do whatever you want."
Right now, I'm watching BTC at 84K, 85K, and 87K.
If it comes back, I'll keep watching,
if not, I'll keep waiting.
The biggest progress in trading crypto isn't being able to predict,
it's finally learning—if you're wrong, run. 😂As soon as BTC drops, the whole network suddenly wakes up.
87K:
"The bull market has just begun."
86K:
"It's only a matter of time before a breakout."
85K:
"A normal pullback."
84K:
"I never said it would definitely rise."
😂
The funniest thing is,
when the candlestick drops 3%,
people's memory drops 3% too.
Yesterday we were still discussing when it would hit 100K,
today we've already started researching:
"Is 84K the historical bottom?"
Don't rush.
The thing BTC does best is—
just when you think it's done falling, it falls a bit more;
just when you think it's about to take off, it moves sideways on you.
So now I just watch the key levels,
not falling in love with the candlesticks.
Only get bullish if it holds steady; if it breaks down, recalculate.
After all,
the secret to surviving long in crypto isn't about predicting correctly,
but about not losing yourself to your predictions. 😂BTC only made a slight adjustment today. Is it a bull trap or a bear trap?
The market hasn't been that complicated these past two days. On the 21st, BTC quickly surged from around 81,000, reaching the 87,300–87,400 range, but it failed to break through this resistance level effectively for two consecutive days. Today, it mainly fluctuated between 85,600 and 87,300, closing slightly lower than yesterday, with intraday volatility only about 0.3%–0.5%.
So rushing to label a small bearish candle as a “bull trap” or “bear trap” might be premature.
Looking at the structure over the past 6 days: on the 18th, BTC rose from about 76,000 to 81,000; on the 21st, it again climbed from around 81,000 to about 86,600, even surpassing 87,300. Although on the 22nd and 23rd it didn’t hold above the previous highs, it also didn’t break below the short-term low near 85,100.
Looking at the weekly chart, the overall upward structure hasn’t been broken yet. The September open was around 78,000, and it’s still near 86,000, with a monthly gain of about 10%.
So currently, it looks more like a high-level rotation and consolidation after a rapid rise, rather than a confirmed top.
The focus now is on two key levels:
Whether volume can push through 87,300–87,400 on the upside;
Whether the support near 85,100 can hold on the downside.
Until confirmed, there’s no rush to label the market. 📊
$BTC $ETH #BTC #Crypto #OKX The most magical thing about the crypto world:
When prices rise, everyone is Warren Buffett.
When prices fall, everyone is a value investor.
When prices move sideways,
"The main force is shaking out weak hands."
When prices crash,
"This is the last drop."
When prices rebound,
"I knew it would go up."
😂
BTC went from 87K to 84K,
I don’t know how much was lost in accounts,
but suddenly there are a lot more analysts in my friend circle.
I’ve learned my lesson now:
Don’t guess the next candlestick of BTC,
just watch where it goes next.
If 84K holds, watch the strength of the rebound;
If 85K is reclaimed, see if volume can continue to expand;
Only if 87K breaks again, then talk about higher levels.
After all, in the crypto world,
being wrong in prediction isn’t scary, being stubborn is the real loss. 😂#BTC surged to $87000, total crypto market cap returns to 3 trillion #Did the 3-hour US-Iran talks send positive signals?
$BTC surged to $87000, total crypto market cap returns to 3 trillion
BTC has been consolidating around 86,000 for most of the day.
The bullish candle from the day before yesterday was sharp, but there was no obvious profit-taking on the chart. The price hangs high, yet selling pressure is surprisingly light, as if no one is willing to give up their chips at this level. Current prices: BTC 86434, ETH 2773, SOL 119.
The signals from capital flows are more worth watching than the price. $BTC spot ETF saw a net inflow of $433 million yesterday, with ETH following at $144 million. $SOL's moves are even more eye-catching—this week, ETFs have accumulated inflows of $60.7 million, with $47.6 million just yesterday. The pace is clearly accelerating in the latter part. Meanwhile, yesterday's surge liquidated about $470 million in short positions. Money is coming in, shorts are retreating, yet the price remains suppressed—this combination can't last sideways for long.
How to watch tonight:
$BTC anchored at 87000. If it holds around 86000, consider light long positions; if 86000 breaks, exit without hesitation. After breaking above 87000, focus on how the 86000–87000 range evolves.
$ETH trend is relatively stable. The 2700–2800 range is where I'm willing to place staggered orders; if it breaks below 2600, cut losses and admit the mistake. After holding 2700, watch 2800, then 2900 above that. On the surface, everything is repairing, but the most vulnerable link is actually hidden in SOL. If it were the leader, would this rebound still hold its ground? These past few days, the market has had a subtle feeling: BTC is holding sideways near 85K, ETH holds at 2.9K, and SOL is grinding close to 130. All three say "I'm repairing," but the quality of the recovery is completely different. BTC is the kind that slowly raises the ground, ETH follows slowly and takes a breather, and SOL is the most elastic and the easiest to change its stance. So what really matters is not whether it rises, but the order of strength and weakness. - BTC holding up is a bottom line signal that risk appetite hasn't collapsed. - If ETH can keep up, it means mainstream funds are still willing to stay in the market. - If SOL rushes first, that's when fake sentiment is truly ignited. If any one of these three is missing, the picture is incomplete. Right now, it's more like BTC is holding the bottom, ETH is transitioning, and SOL is waiting for the starting gun. Market trading isn't really about the word "rebound," but about early bets on the next rise in risk appetite. The 85K, 2.9K, and 130 levels essentially set sentiment ranges: if you hold on, the story continues; If you can't hold on, the excitement will quickly fade. The path to bullish is clear: BTC doesn't break support, ETH stabilizes its rhythm, SOL leads volume expansion, and the imagination of a fake season is reopened, and funds are willing to shift from defense to offense. Conversely, if SOL can't surge and ETH remains weak, the surface calm turns into insufficient support, and no matter how stable BTC is, it easily becomes an isolated island, with the final supplement$ONE Youkai Coin has finally crashed!
A zombie chain has been hopping around for so long, luckily it waterfall-ed today. I don't know how many brothers have been deceived!
The attitude remains the same as a few days ago: don't touch it! Touching it means becoming a bag holder, for the following reasons:
1. The mainnet is shut down, so the fundamentals are gone.
Moreover, this chain was hacked by North Korean hackers for 100 million in 2022, and in August this year, 23 million was sold due to a contract vulnerability. There is no sign of it coming back to life.
2. There are no whales taking over on-chain: no accumulation, only fleeing. The turnover rate in the last 24 hours reached 350%, purely speculative short-term funds.
The 4-hour RSI broke through 90, seriously overbought, with volume increasing on the rise and decreasing on the fall, which is typical of a pump and dump.
3. The price around 0.0015 has been repeatedly smashed, indicating dense high-level trapped positions, meaning early holders are distributing, not smart money entering.
I suggest brothers keep watching the show and don't reach out! The project is about to shut down, and with no final block for migration, no ERC-20 contract, no 1:1 exchange commitment, rushing in now is just providing exit liquidity for those distributing.
To put it bluntly, this shutdown is not much different from a scam run.🧠 Rethinking Funding Rates: Don't Let Fees Eat Your Profits
The recent market rally reminded me again:
Trading is not just about predicting direction; controlling trading costs and leverage risk is even more important.
My current approach is simpler:
🔹 BTC / ETH: Primary long-short trading targets
🔹 SOL / ZEC: Worth monitoring but strictly control position size
🔹 Small coins with high funding rates: Avoid as much as possible, especially in markets with low liquidity and crowded leverage
BTC recently broke above $87,000, hitting an approximately 8-month high on September 21; meanwhile, the US spot Bitcoin ETF saw nearly $1 billion in net inflows on September 21 alone, with market leverage and derivatives activity clearly heating up.
What really needs caution is:
Price may be just the surface; funding rates and position structures are the hidden costs.
Some profit from price volatility,
Some focus on funding rates,
And in a high-leverage environment, the latter can cause you to continuously pay costs even if your directional call is correct.
So now I value this saying more:
If you’re unfamiliar with the funding rate, don’t touch it; if you don’t understand the leverage structure, don’t bet on it.
#CryptoTrading #BTC87K #CryptoCap3T #BTC #ETH #SOL #ZEC📌 A reminder to myself:
Whether going long or short, try to focus on $BTC and $ETH.
Maybe also pay attention to $SOL and $ZEC.
⚠️ Avoid tokens with excessively high funding rates, such as $ONE.
A friend lost 3 times just because of the funding rate when shorting, even before the price changed significantly, already paying a huge cost.
There are some traders in the market who make a living solely from earning funding rates.
I don’t understand their trading logic and have no interest in studying this strategy.
💡 Choose markets with more liquidity and more transparent funding rates.
Don’t blindly chase high returns; manage risk first.

Wait for a pullback to buy again.
Many people watch BTC keep rising and want to enter when it drops.
When the market pulls back slightly, they wonder: will it keep falling? Let's wait a bit more.
When the market rallies again and breaks the previous high, their mindset completely collapses.
Finally, unable to bear the pain of missing out, they chase at the top, only to hit this pullback.
This is the cycle for the vast majority:
Afraid to buy on the rise, afraid to catch the bottom on the dip, unable to resist chasing new highs, and every chase meets a pullback.
The market won't wait for anyone.
True opportunities won't stop just because you're not ready.
It's not about waiting for the price to fall to your ideal level, but about only taking trades that fit your own rules.
Missing out means less profit; chasing at the top and being wrong means real losses.
Sharing market thoughts, not investment advice.A day in the crypto world revolves around one core thing: talking tough.
BTC 87K:
"Breakthrough is imminent, the pattern is opening up."
BTC 84K:
"Healthy correction, washing out the weak hands."
BTC 82K:
"I told you it would drop, I saw it coming early."
BTC 80K:
"Brothers, do you still have bullets?"
The most ridiculous part is—
everyone thinks their prediction was right,
just their position size didn’t keep up. 😂
So now I don’t guess the top or the bottom.
I just watch three numbers:
Can 84K hold?
Can 85K be reclaimed?
Will 87K dare to surge again?
The most stable thing in crypto isn’t BTC, it’s people’s mouths. 😂A trading discipline I relearned:
Not every rising token is worth leveraging.
Currently, my approach leans towards concentrating contract trading on $BTC and $ETH, while $SOL and $ZEC are only considered when liquidity and funding rates are reasonable.
What really needs caution are those small coins with abnormal funding rates and crowded leverage. Because even if you correctly predict the price direction, your profits can be gradually eroded by continuous Funding Fees.
As of September 23, BTC remains around $86K, ETH about $2.75K, and the market overall maintains a strong risk appetite; meanwhile, some data shows ETH's long funding rate is significantly higher than BTC's, indicating leverage demand is concentrating.
So now, what's more important is not "where the price rises fastest," but:
Whether price, liquidity, and funding rate are all healthy simultaneously.
Some traders profit not from the trend, but from waiting for others to pay Funding.
My rule is simple:
Avoid crowded leverage positions, protect principal first, then look for opportunities.
#CryptoTrading #BTC #ETH #SOL #ZEC #BTC87KCryptoCap3T
If needed, I can as well. SNDK officially became part of the S&P 100 index adjustment on September 21.
On the day the rule took effect, passive funds tracking the index mechanically bought according to weight, pushing the stock price rapidly from around 1700 to the 1908 level.
But it must be clear that this surge was entirely driven by the index rebalancing, not by active funds entering based on positive fundamentals.
Passive funds only complete the allocation action and have no long-term holding logic; after building positions, buying will quickly diminish.
The key question is: after the passive buying tide recedes, who will take over the high-level chips? If no new active funds follow up, the price is very likely to face downward pressure.
This type of event-driven rally often comes fast and goes fast; chasing highs requires extra caution, and one must not mistake index inclusion as a signal of fundamental reversal.
