Here's another arbitrage example. Recently, many people have been discussing the pre-listing contracts of Anthropic (ANT) on X. Binance: prices are based on an assumed 1 billion shares, while hype:ANT is priced per share. After the prospectus reveals the actual number of shares, Binance will adjust the contracts so both sides align on the same per-share price. According to online research, there are about 12.7 billion shares. This morning at 6 AM, Binance was at 1,374, which converts to about $108 per share, while hype shows $97.5, a difference of around 11%. So some people go long on hype and short on Binance, balancing according to share count. At its peak, the price difference was 25%. As more people arbitraged, it shrank to 5% at one point, and now it's back to 11%, likely because some have taken profits and closed positions. The risk lies entirely in the share count calibration. If Binance includes all options and such, the share count would be about 16.7 billion, making the per-share price only $82. Doing this would mean a loss of nearly 20% in reverse. In short, both sides are betting on which share count Binance will ultimately use; this is not risk-free arbitrage. The game point: whether it's around 16.7 billion or closer to 12.7 billion shares. 16.7 billion means Binance goes up; 12.7 billion means Binance goes down. Based on SpaceX's precedent, the 12.7 billion figure is more likely. This is also why more people are arbitraging based on 12.7 billion. If you still don't understand, better not to touch it. Playing it safe means not playing.The Binance 6.3 billion hack is still being digested, and $BTC is stuck grinding around 75.9K, unable to go up or down [reference:0][reference:1]. On-chain data is quite honest; ETFs have already withdrawn nearly 1.3 billion in November, institutions say it's nothing, but they're quicker than anyone to slip away. CPI and PPI are coming this week, analysts have drawn a range from 73K to 80K, with liquidation clusters all in between—whichever side hits first will hurt [reference:3]. $ETH is interesting though, outperforming BTC by nearly 24 points in the past month, BitMine has swept up almost ten thousand coins, and over 80% are locked in staking. But ETH’s own ETFs have also bled a lot; prices rose, but not much money came back. The A-shares market is a completely different game: media stocks gained 13% in a week, power equipment went crazy, photovoltaics hit a limit-up wave, and turnover surged to 2.12 trillion. However, the STAR Market plunged 5%, while liquor stocks pulled against the trend; capital rotation is very clear, so it’s not a full bull market at all. The US non-farm payrolls blew past expectations, pushing the Dow down, but chip stocks collectively revived, with Advanced Micro Devices up 11% in a single day, and Tesla also jumped over 4%. Right now, the market is everyone playing their own game; don’t expect a single logic to connect it all.Here's another arbitrage example.

Playing it safe means not playing.$LIT surged for several days but gave back some gains today. Coinglass reports 3.25, down 8.1% in 24 hours, falling from 3.55 intraday, yet still up 17% over 7 days. BTC barely moved today; the drop is on $LIT itself. There are only two reasons for the rise. Coinotag says Lighter repurchased $4.11 million worth of LIT in October, 54% more than in September; founder Novakovski said they will apply to the CFTC this month for exchange and clearinghouse licenses. On Friday it was still at 3.44, and it didn’t follow BTC’s 6% drop that day. But the application hasn’t been submitted yet, and a $4 million buyback in a $810 million market cap is just a drop in the bucket. Long positions are holding firm in the futures market. Total open interest is $375 million, about 46% of market cap; daily futures volume is $220 million, spot only $27 million. Binance account long-short ratio is 1.73, OKX is 1.83, Binance whales’ long-short ratio is 3.47; no one is giving up despite the 8% drop. Funding rate averages -0.0027%, turning negative on OKX and Gate, shorts are entering. Futures funding net outflow is $74 million over 30 days. Unlocking is not urgent; team and investor tokens start unlocking only on December 30, at 13.5 million tokens per month. This rally is pinned on the CFTC application; volume spiked around 3.44 before and after submission, only then will the license story have buyers. The application is delayed, price dropped first to 3.1, and whales flipped their 3x long positions to dump the market. The gains this week will most likely be given back. #BTC与ETH现货ETF单周净流出超16亿美元 $BTC This is not a "bear trap followed by a big rally" scenario, but a stalemate of a "bear trap shape combined with bulls still alive inside." A true bear trap bottom usually comes with negative funding rates, a sharp drop in long positions, and active buying volume. None of these three conditions are met right now. If the 75,500 level is pierced again, it may not trigger the "last shakeout" but could be the second round of liquidation of long leverage positions that have not yet been cleared. Before the funding rate turns negative or the price recovers above 76,210 (the 1-hour long-short boundary) with volume and holds steady, treating every lower wick as a "bear trap" to buy is betting on having more patience than the market, not being smarter than the market. #BTC与ETH现货ETF单周净流出超16亿美元 Bitcoin is said to be heading to ten thousand, but I'll go boil some water first Today is Sunday, it's cold, and before the water boiled, I glanced at Bitcoin, which was still at seventy-five thousand, over 75,700, down 2.6% for the week. Then I saw that message: Bloomberg's McGlone said again that Bitcoin is going to ten thousand. He said this last year when Bitcoin was still above one hundred thousand, with the condition that if the S&P dropped 20%, Bitcoin would "lose a zero." But the S&P has only dropped 6% so far, still far from 20%. The Nasdaq has dropped more than 10%, halfway there, but Bitcoin is still at seventy-five thousand, sixty-five thousand away from ten thousand. Melker summed it up in one sentence: halfway there, Bitcoin is still seventeen or eighteen thousand higher than the low point, so dropping to ten thousand doesn't make sense. I also don't dare say McGlone is definitely wrong. In October, nonfarm payrolls increased by 165,000, and the market's probability of a Fed rate hike in December is close to 80%. Money is tight, and Bitcoin's days are tough. Below seventy-five thousand is seventy-three thousand, then sixty-nine thousand five hundred. If it can't hold, the story will be rewritten. I recall "River Snow": A lone boat, an old man in a straw raincoat and hat, fishing alone in the cold river snow. Fishing in the snow, there's nothing but waiting. The crypto world is also waiting now. Waiting to see if seventy-five thousand is the bottom or just halfway up the mountain. Those shouting ten thousand started when it was one hundred thousand, and now it's still seventy-five thousand. The water is finished; I'm going to cook now. I'm still watching these three: $BTC to see if seventy-five thousand can hold, $ETH to see if 2,237 can stabilize, and $SOL to see if it follows the market.Top 10 largest whale positions with the most severe losses in the past 24 hours show that the market is not just as the price charts depict; most of the loss pressure is concentrated on the long side. Among the ten large loss positions, seven are long positions. The longs of Bitcoin ($BTC) and Ethereum ($ETH) have borne the main losses, with four Bitcoin long positions totaling about 2886 BTC and three Ethereum long positions holding approximately 72,500 $ETH. Leveraged long funds have been significantly hit. However, the market is not in a one-sided decline; two sizable short positions in HYPE ($HYPE) have also incurred losses, totaling about 1.7 million tokens with a nominal value exceeding $132 million, which invalidates a purely bearish judgment. A single long position in crude oil BRENTOIL ($BRENTOIL) valued at 96.7 million is the largest single loss this time, reminding us that these whales' holdings are not limited to the crypto market, and cross-asset positions can interfere with market judgment. The current market leans more toward divergence rather than a one-sided capitulation. Losses appear on both long and short sides, marginal liquidity tightens, and prices are likely to oscillate repeatedly within a range, making it difficult to form a clear trend. The key going forward is to see which side breaks first: if Bitcoin and Ethereum longs continue to bleed, further downside is possible; if HYPE shorts cut losses and exit first, a short squeeze could be triggered. There is no extreme one-sided sentiment yet, and the market direction awaits new catalysts to break the balance. $BTC $On November 5th, American drone delivery company Zipline completed a $1.5 billion financing round, with a post-investment valuation of $21.5 billion, led by Paradigm along with WCM and Layer Global. Its valuation was only $7.6 billion in January this year, nearly tripling in less than a year. What really stands out is the lead investor. Paradigm's most famous past achievements were Coinbase and Uniswap, starting out by researching token economics and smart contracts. But in the past year, its focus has shifted to drone flight safety, factory production efficiency, nuclear reactor power generation, and even space defense. In July, it also launched a new $1.2 billion fund. The reason is simple: the exit paths in the crypto primary market are narrowing, and the returns driven by token narratives are diminishing; hard tech, however, has verifiable operational data. Zipline has completed 150 million miles of commercial autonomous flights, with over 1 million orders in Dallas this year, a median delivery time of 19 minutes in October, while traditional delivery takes over 30 minutes. This kind of data can be incorporated into valuation models, unlike whitepapers. For the secondary market, this is not just about a single down day. Top VCs are shifting their attention, and long-tail assets have fewer investors willing to tell stories. $BTC and $ETH are supported by ETFs, $UNI is a stockpile position, and the hardest hit are projects waiting for the next round of VC takeovers. It’s worth considering: when the people who understand token design best start researching flight safety and nuclear reactors, the bull market narratives may no longer come from them.$BTC ETF saw a net outflow of $1.28 billion last week, the worst week since the end of June. More importantly, this week alone turned the year's account negative. On Monday, the year-to-date net inflow was still $368 million, but by Saturday it had become a net outflow of $914.1 million. $ETH is even worse, with ETF net outflows of $365.3 million last week, marking the sixth consecutive week of net outflows, totaling about $2.02 billion over six weeks #XAUTGoldReservesUp59% I see this rate annualized blend, annualized return -692%, shorts are paying longs. This morning it was over -800%. It settles every four hours; if tonight it changes to every 2 hours or 1 hour, the shorts might be doomed. The control rate is still 98%. Waiting for those shorting this coin to break, the short positions will either flee or explode $BLEND #BTC与ETH现货ETF单周净流出超16亿美元 The weekend should have been a breather for the crypto market, but this time it was unusually quiet. $BTC continues to weakly oscillate below 76000, and $ETH is similarly suppressed below 2250. The previous pattern of "big drops during the week and a 2000-point rebound on the weekend" has completely failed. This is not ordinary sideways movement; it is a signal: no one in the market is willing to take the goods anymore. Bears haven't made much profit but at least remain afloat; bulls are basically in a floating loss. This stalemate where "no one dares to move" precisely indicates that confidence has fallen faster than prices. What is truly worrisome is the change in capital flow. ETFs have begun to continuously withdraw, turning into a net outflow of about $416 million year-to-date. This is not an isolated event—U.S. stocks are weakening simultaneously, interest rate hike expectations are rising, and liquidity across all risk assets is contracting. When the macro environment no longer provides incremental funds, the crypto market naturally lacks support internally. Many are still waiting for a "technical rebound" to confirm the bottom, but historical experience may fail this time. The logic behind weekend rebounds was based on on-exchange funds willing to bottom-fish, but now even ETFs are retreating, and the source of bottom-fishing funds is drying up. In other words, the current issue is not "the price has fallen enough to rebound," but "who will buy." My judgment is straightforward: at this level, the risk-reward ratio of shorting on rallies is clearly better than bottom-fishing. This is not because I am bearish on the long-term value of crypto assets, but because the short-term market structure is already unbalanced—prices without support mean rebounds only provide better entry points for shorts Binance notifies users in Spain, France, Italy, and Poland to withdraw funds promptly: Starting November 29, a monthly fee of 0.025% or 10 USDC (whichever is higher) will be charged on unwithdrawn balances, and accounts will be closed on December 31, 2026. A spokesperson confirmed that this is due to the gradual restriction of services after the MiCA transition period ends; deposits are already limited, withdrawals are still allowed, and assets remain accessible. The core issue is that Binance has not obtained the full MiCA license and cannot serve the entire EU; French users were previously announced to have their accounts closed by the end of the year for the same reason. Assessment: This is bearish for Binance's European operations but neutral for the overall market. MiCA moves the EU from individual licensing to unified licensing, and exchanges that have not completed compliance upgrades must face this regulatory threshold. Practical advice: Affected accounts should withdraw funds promptly to avoid monthly fees starting November 29; the 10 USDC minimum fee is especially unfavorable for small balances; long-term inactive accounts will be passively closed by the end of 2026. The short-term impact will be on Binance's European market share, liquidity, and listing pace, rather than immediate sell-offs; attention should be paid to whether the MiCA license can be obtained, and whether withdrawal channels and limits become congested. This involves BNB and the Binance platform, with the platform outlook bearish and the market neutral. Source: PANews #BNB #USDC Have you withdrawn your assets yet? Recently, the US tech stock sector has become increasingly interesting. On Thursday, AI-related assets experienced a significant sell-off, as the market began to worry about data center investments, financing costs, and the cash flow of AI companies. However, on Friday, there was a collective rebound: $NVDA closed at $188.70, up 3.91%; $AMD closed at $448.14, up 10.82%; $CRWV closed at $46.54, up 6.60%; $TSLA closed at $359.40, up 4.57%; $MSFT closed at $531.40, down 0.85%. $AMD rose more than 10% in one day, which looks very strong. But the question is: can a one-day rebound solve the valuation issues of the AI industry chain? I don't think so. What the market is really worried about now is not whether there is demand for AI, but: how much money will be needed for the continued expansion of data centers? When will these investments convert into revenue and free cash flow? Can highly leveraged computing power companies withstand higher financing costs? If the AI industry chain continues to rely on capital expenditure to drive growth, the market will sooner or later start to question: is revenue growth real, or is debt growing faster? Nvidia's orders and computing power demand remain strong, AMD continues to attract market attention, and giants like Microsoft, Meta, and Oracle are still investing huge sums to build AI infrastructure. So I wouldn't simply say the AI narrative is over. First, let's pour some cold water and even if you're bearish, don't jump the gun. I usually look for risks first, but when I see this kind of policy warning, I tend to guard against interpreting "possible" as "inevitable" too readily. My judgment is: this news is enough to cool down legislative optimism, but not enough to prove that the entire industry's policy environment has shifted. The US midterm election assessment report released by Galaxy Research warns that if the Democrats win both houses of Congress, the crypto industry may face stricter congressional oversight; research director Alex Thorn expects that key digital asset legislation will have little substantive progress. I'm not in a hurry to draw a fully bearish conclusion for two reasons: the report discusses scenarios corresponding to election outcomes, not policies already implemented, so omitting the conditions would exaggerate certainty; legislative progress and rulemaking are not the same line, and the material clearly mentions that the SEC, CFTC, and banking regulators can still formulate and clarify rules based on existing authorizations, so congressional gridlock should not be equated directly with a complete halt in regulatory work. Of course, a bearish interpretation could also be correct. According to my speculation, if the political scenarios in the report come true, oversight intensifies, and regulatory rules continue to tighten, then the pressure will be more than just emotional. I would therefore lower my judgment rather than stubbornly remain optimistic. Next, I will focus on actual oversight actions and rule content, and not let a scenario assessment prematurely judge the market.Extreme moves do not mean the trend has reversed. If spot buying doesn't keep up, prices may still continue to consolidate or move down to seek liquidity. So, did the buying keep up? Let's take a look: $BTC ETF had a net outflow of $1.28 billion last week, the worst week since the end of June. More importantly, this week alone turned the year's account negative. On Monday, year-to-date net inflow was still $368 million, but by Saturday it had become a net outflow of $914.1 million. The speed of institutional withdrawal can already be described as embarrassing. $ETH is even worse, with a net outflow of $365.3 million from ETFs last week, marking the sixth consecutive week of net outflows, totaling about $2.02 billion over six weeks. If BTC suddenly accelerated this week, ETH has been bleeding out continuously for six weeks, and this slow hemorrhaging should be even harder to endure. In summary, the current market state still looks more like a cooling off of leverage rather than the market re-entering a bull rhythm. At least let's wait and see what next week's CPI says. #BTC and ETH spot ETF single-week net outflow 75,569 In that moment, I stared at the market a bit dazed 🌙 A weekly outflow of 1.28 billion USD, yet the price only fluctuated less than 700 points—what kind of sell-off is this? The US spot BTC ETF saw a net outflow of about 1.28 billion this week, the heaviest week since the end of June, and the second consecutive week of bleeding. What's more interesting is that, as of Friday this year, twelve funds combined have a net outflow of about 914.1 million—meaning that at the start of this week there was still a net inflow of about 368 million, but within one week all the positive gains for the year were given back. On Friday alone, about 411.9 million left, with BlackRock IBIT accounting for about 403 million. But what concerns me more is the market's "non-cooperation." $BTC is now around 75,950, with a 24-hour high of 76,251 and low of 75,569, and a funding rate of about 0.007%. Volume was low over the weekend; last night it was pushed down to 75,569 but then pulled back, and this morning it has been grinding between 75,700 and 75,950; after surging to 76,251 yesterday afternoon, it hasn't been able to go higher. This combination, to me, is a typical sign of narrative fatigue: selling pressure is real, but buyers are not panicking, the price is being held down but not smashed through. Psychologically, those chasing longs fear CPI, while those out of the market fear missing out, so everyone is staying on the sidelines watching—trading is light, volatility is suppressed, and FOMO is actually showing up as "not daring to move" first. Looking at sector strength and weakness through this lens, the signal is actually quite straightforward: the ETF channel is withdrawing, saying Why is CORE currently in a "fundamental repair period"? Three signals reveal the truth After consecutive incidents of underlying reward vulnerabilities and the large-scale theft of b14g coins, many opinions believe that CORE has entered a passive fundamental repair window, but repair does not equal reversal; three major signals need to be objectively identified. Signal 1: Major vulnerability has completed a technical closed loop. Regarding the theft of 97.05 million CORE from b14g, the project team successfully recovered about 70% of the stolen tokens through a hard fork and completed contract patches to prevent similar vulnerabilities from recurring. The BTC staked underlying assets remain secure, and the most extreme systemic risk has been temporarily eliminated. Signal 2: Risk has shifted from an "unknown black box" to a "known risk." From the concentration of validator nodes, hard fork intervention in the ledger, the scale of ghost chips, to Bithumb's delisting schedule, most negative factors have been fully exposed and priced by the market, reducing uncertainty. Signal 3: The BTCFi sector narrative foundation still exists. The product framework based on Bitcoin staking has not completely failed. If transparency in the treasury and governance solutions improves later, there is theoretically still a possibility to re-attract funds. However, it is important to clearly recognize: the repair period is merely a bottoming phase after all negative factors have been exhausted. Core hidden risks have not been eradicated; remaining stolen chips, decentralization trust fractures, and competitive diversion pressures still exist long-term. Repair is a necessary condition to stop the decline, but by no means a sufficient condition for an uptrend.Warren possibly taking control of the Senate Banking Committee is the detail I care about most in Galaxy's assessment. Let's consider the worst-case scenario: if both chambers change hands, supervision might tighten, but legislation could get stuck. My judgment is that expectations propped up by policy fulfillment are more fragile: first, the legislative waiting period is hard to estimate; second, regulation can still proceed legally, so no movement in bills doesn't mean rules remain unchanged. My risk control habit is to first write a list of losses I can bear per trade, not loosening boundaries based on news. During such policy uncertainty periods, how much stop loss do people generally set for themselves per trade?About 160 million ALLO, with the window roughly around November 11. Tokenomist still marks the next unlock on this day, targeting Early Backers and Core Contributors. According to the official proportions, these two categories together account for 48.55% of the 1 billion cap, with a full 12-month lockup followed by a one-time release of 33% each, totaling about 160 million, approximately 16% of the cap. Some trackers include small linear releases during the same period, so their figures might be slightly higher. The official rules are stated but no fixed calendar date: lock for 12 months, release 33% at the milestone, then linear release over the remaining 24 months. November 11 is calculated by pushing one year from the mainnet/token listing on November 11, 2025; this is an estimate, not an official announcement. The window is about 3 days away. Unlocking does not mean immediate selling. Why it matters: this is a relatively large cliff supply calendar compared to the cap; first, see if there is an actual on-chain release. Confidence level: Medium | Estimated calendar (Tokenomist + official tokenomics; the foundation has not announced specific dates). Are you more concerned about whether the tokens will be transferred on-chain at the milestone, or just the countdown on the tracker? $ALLO $11.39 million, 7x leverage, fully invested in a single long position on $BTC. Entry at $75,880, liquidation at $62,047. What’s worth noting in these numbers isn’t the size of the position, but the distance between entry and liquidation. 7x leverage means most of this over ten million is borrowed, not his own money. This level of leverage on-chain is considered "daring but with a way out," unlike 25x or 50x where the liquidation price is right next to the entry price—just a small move and it’s gone. So this position isn’t currently considered dangerous. Now look at this person. Cumulative profit of $821,600, with $755,400 earned in the last 30 days. The recent month’s profit accounts for the vast majority of total profit, indicating that he is very close to achieving real results; for a long time before, the account was flat. This doesn’t mean he’s not skilled, but the label "cumulative profit of $821,600" carries more weight than it seems. A 7x long position with a liquidation price near $62,000 essentially bets that this correction won’t drop back to $62,000. This is different from "I’m bullish on $BTC." The former is risk budgeting, the latter is a directional view. The most common mistake in copy trading is mixing these two up—if you get the direction right, you add more, but you don’t die from a wrong call, you die from volatility. So the judgment is: the safety margin of this position comes from leverage restraint, not from support at a certain price level. If it really drops to $62,000, that distance isn’t wide in extreme market conditions. One last point to consider: what you see on-chain is always the positions others want you to see.Historically, the proportion of altcoins falling below the 200-day moving average at the end of June has reached 84%, now at 70%. Some have started shouting "extreme oversold, reversal is coming." But note: it was only 10% at the beginning of October, then surged to 70% in one month. The decline is sharp, not prolonged. After a sharp drop, there may be a rebound, but that does not mean a trend reversal. If you want to bet on a rebound, you can. But don't mistake a rebound for a reversal, and don't turn a rebound into a belief.Polygon is currently discussing a "balance rewrite" hard fork: directly removing approximately 70.49 million POL (about $6.5 million) stolen in the Polymarket and Binance incidents on October 29 from the attackers' addresses. Confirmed: The proposal was released on November 4 in the form of a PIP, involving 5 addresses that have been blacklisted by block-producing nodes—23.86 million from the Polymarket incident (entry point was a third-party service provider), 46.63 million from Binance hot wallets, and 6.19 million USDT from the same batch has been frozen by Tether. The blacklist only freezes funds without returning them; the attacker is still attempting to test with 219,000 POL in fees and is suspected to have contacted validators. The mechanism is to zero out the balances of the 5 addresses at the activation block and credit the equivalent amount to the recovery addresses of the two companies, keeping the total supply unchanged, accounting for about 0.66% of the circulating supply. Pending: A governance call on November 5 demonstrated the proposal, but no voting results yet; even if passed, it will require about two weeks of development and testnet rehearsals. The real controversy in the community is not the $6.5 million but the precedent— the last time this was done was Ethereum in 2016, and the chain that did not follow later became Ethereum Classic. A reminder: The official side has no "migration" or "claim"; any such notices are phishing attempts.

Streaming price increases can improve revenue per household but may also drive cancellations. Theme park attendance and per-guest spending still impact the group's cash flow. If subscription profitability improves in tandem with park performance, the upside is more credible. If profits are mainly driven by reduced content spending, retention will become the next test.Is the storage industry still viable? The hottest topic among foreigners over the weekend! Taking Micron as an example, its forward PE is only 3.6x, while Walmart's is as high as 45x. Which one is really worth investing in? The bulls' logic: If Micron can earn hundreds of billions of dollars in profit in the next two to three years, why should it still be valued based on past storage cycles? The storage cycles back then fundamentally did not have structural demand growth like AI! Now with the explosion in demand for HBM, DRAM, and NAND, AI is reshaping the entire supply and demand relationship of the storage industry. Micron has exceeded earnings expectations for eight consecutive quarters, and UBS analysts have proposed buybacks exceeding hundreds of billions of dollars in forward scenarios. The bears' logic: Even if Micron earns hundreds of billions of dollars in profit in the future, the cyclical nature of the storage industry cannot be ignored. The reason is simple: memory prices will inevitably crash, and gross margins will collapse accordingly. The storage cycles over the past decades repeatedly prove that even if fundamentals continuously exceed expectations, they cannot change the cyclical fluctuations of the storage industry. Now neither bulls nor bears can convince each other.US spot Bitcoin ETFs have seen net outflows for two consecutive days, with $411.9 million leaving on Friday alone, of which BlackRock accounted for $403 million. Strategy's coin buying speed has also dropped from 20,000 coins per week at the beginning of the year to just two or three hundred. Institutions are pulling back, while retail investors are asking, "Can we catch the dip?" It's not that institutions are always right, but when you are going against a monthly outflow of $1.28 billion, at least you know who you are standing opposite to. #BTC与ETH现货ETF单周净流出超16亿美元 ETH current price is 2,234, with a 52-week range from 1,507 to 3,657. It has dropped nearly 40% from its peak and is down 24.8% year-to-date. Technical analysis signals a "strong sell." But the question has never been "Is ETH still good?" It's "What is your cost basis, how large is your position, and how much more can you endure?" Instead of asking if you can buy when it falls, first ask yourself: if it drops another 10% tomorrow, can you still sleep at night? Regarding Moderna's financial report, beyond seeing how much profit was made, I am more interested in whether the money has actually been collected. The net profit for Q3 was $162 million, a turnaround that deserves recognition. However, the company also mentioned that most of the payments from product sales during the quarter had not been collected by the end of the quarter. Accounts receivable at the end of September were about $1.367 billion, a significant increase compared to the end of last year. There is a period between revenue recognition and cash receipt that needs to be continuously monitored. This does not necessarily mean there is a problem with customer payments. Concentrated sales, differences in shipping and settlement times can all cause this phenomenon. After seeing the impressive profit figures, the next step is best to also follow up on the cash collections. The company’s operating activities still had a net outflow of about $2.715 billion in the first three quarters, which also includes factors such as litigation and seasonal working capital. Breaking down these expenses is necessary to judge how subsequent cash consumption will change. I acknowledge this improvement, but I do not want to overlook that the entire business is still adjusting just because of a single quarter’s turnaround. Especially for R&D-focused companies with long investment cycles, how long the improvement in the income statement can last requires coordination between sales and expenses. If accounts receivable gradually recover and operating cash flow improves accordingly, the basis for this rebound will be more solid. The revenue already confirmed in the financial report ultimately needs to turn into money the company can continue to use, and I will be watching this step very closely. #ModernaQ3扭亏为盈,上调全年营收增长预期 In the past 24 hours, the crypto derivatives market exploded by $1.27 billion, with longs liquidated over $1.1 billion. It's not that retail investors don't want to hold on, but leverage doesn't allow it. BTC slid from above 80,000 to 76,000, and every rebound was pushed back by ETF outflows: since November, BTC ETF net outflows have reached $1.28 billion, with BlackRock's IBIT running $400 million in one day. Institutions are withdrawing, and you're catching. Ask yourself: are you catching an opportunity or a flying knife? Recent news related to Bitcoin: 1. ETFs are seeing outflows. On Friday, despite the US stock market rising, the Bitcoin ETF still had outflows of over 400 million, and buying hasn't returned. 2. Interest rate hike expectations. Non-farm payrolls were too strong, and the probability of a rate hike in December is now 76.5%. 3. Altcoin money is retreating; statistics show that about 70% of altcoins on Binance have fallen below their 200-day moving average. The total stablecoin supply is $291.6 billion, down by $5.8 billion in one week. 4. Bitcoin is already close to the Strategy's cost price. Its average holding price is about $75,451, now only two or three hundred dollars higher. On Wednesday, MSCI will decide whether to keep it in the index.ETF net outflow of $1.647 billion in one week — does that mean the entire crypto space lost $1.647 billion? This calculation cannot be equated directly. According to Farside's daily aggregation, from November 2 to 6, the US spot BTC ETF had a net outflow of about $1.282 billion, and ETH about $365 million. This is not a trivial matter: the net demand through the ETF channel is indeed weakening. But "net outflow in this channel" and "all institutions are fleeing" are not the same conclusion. ETF is just one of the holding tools. The subscription and redemption data of fund shares do not cover all institutional position changes, nor do they represent the total capital flow of the entire market. My judgment: this set of data is worth being cautious about, but it is not enough to conclude the market trend. The more useful questions going forward are: whether the outflow continues, which funds are concentrated in the outflow, and whether demand from other channels has compensated. Rather than rushing to call bull or bear, I want to know: who is reducing, who is taking over, and for how long. Analyzed according to Buffett's framework, this does not constitute investment advice.$BTC retail long sentiment is at its highest in nearly five months, which is bad news for the bulls. Looking at the long-short dimension over two consecutive weeks, this is the highest retail long position in 8 months. The last time was at the end of January when BTC was at 90,000, and it later dropped below 60,000. I'm thinking about whether this time the main force will shake out these bulls by moving up, down, or a combination of both. What do you think? BTC has been consolidating all day, and something noteworthy is happening around $76,000. On the afternoon of November 8, the latest BTC quote was $75,927, down 0.33% in 24 hours. The highest was $76,250, the lowest $75,571. In the past 24 hours, the difference between the high and low points was less than $700. Compared to the intense fluctuations of previous days, the market is clearly much calmer today. But I think what’s really worth paying attention to is not why BTC isn’t rising, but why, after the previous sharp decline, it hasn’t continued to fall for now. One possibility is that short-term selling pressure has eased, and buyers and sellers are rebalancing. Another possibility is that the market lacks new driving factors, and funds are temporarily choosing to wait and see. These two situations have completely different implications for the subsequent trend. If BTC can break through $76,250 and maintain strength after the breakout, a short-term rebound may continue further. But if it falls below $75,570, especially if it loses $75,000 again, the downside risk needs to be reassessed. Currently, I tend to believe the market is in a directional choice phase rather than having confirmed a bottom. BTC has fallen from above $80,000 in the past few days, and market sentiment has clearly changed. But whether the price can strengthen again ultimately needs actual buying power to prove it. Do you think BTC is bottoming around $75,000 now, or waiting for the next round of decline? $BTC There's a funny number — Perp DEX traded 438 million transactions last month, an 8.4% month-on-month increase, promoted as an "11-month high." Looking closely, October last year had 521 million transactions. This new high is compared to the past year; compared to itself a year ago, it's still 15.9% lower. It's like realizing at the end of the month that your salary increased by 300 yuan compared to last month, feeling happy, then pulling out last year's bill for the same month and finding you earned 2,000 yuan more back then. Also, the transaction count is very straightforward — wash trades, grid trades, opening and closing positions all count as one transaction each. The increase in transaction count might just mean people are more eager to trade, not necessarily that more money is coming in. Whether $HYPE has real demand still needs to be seen next month.Is 2240 the bottom for Ethereum $ETH? If it was ten days ago, I was very sure, but now I have some doubts. First, Ethereum's highest point this round was 2800, according to the pattern of every bull market cycle, a 20% retracement means 2800 x 0.8 = 2240, which happens to be the current level. This is a key proof that the price can't fall further now, a 20% retracement is not a coincidence, it's a consensus level in the market. Perp DEX activity is back, but no one has reached last year's level. In October, the total number of decentralized exchange trades for perpetual contracts across the market was 438 million, an 8.4% month-on-month increase, marking the highest single month in the past 11 months. It sounds like a recovery. But looking over a year, the same metric for October 2025 was 521 million trades, 15.9% higher than now. Putting these two numbers together changes the nature of the story. The month-on-month increase indicates the network is repairing—wallets can connect, and order placement is smooth; the year-on-year decrease shows a significant portion of last year's momentum hasn't returned. We are climbing out of a pit, not hitting new highs. Perp DEX revenue is almost entirely tied to trade volume. Unlike spot markets that profit from asset size, it earns fees on each open and close trade. With trade volume up 8.4%, protocol revenue rises accordingly; stuck just above 400 million, the story of buybacks and dividends can only be half told. This is also why $HYPE, $DYDX, and $GMX are more sensitive to trade volume than price—if the price rises but no one trades, they earn nothing. The 15.9% gap, at a monthly growth rate just over 8%, requires two to three months without issues to close. Any congestion or mainstream coin pullback in the meantime could push trade volume back down. Worth considering: what market conditions produced those 521 million trades last October? If that was excessive trading at a sentiment peak, then 438 million might be the norm, and the so-called recovery is actually a false premise.The market situation is a bit subtle, with a contrast between capital flow and the external environment! The weekend data looks quite interesting. Let's first look at BTC: in the past 24 hours, there was a net capital inflow of 595.75 BTC. Although this is a drop of more than 50% compared to the inflow scale of the previous day, it represents a 428.18% increase compared to seven days ago, indicating that the capital foundation is still there. During the same period, the liquidation amount was only $4.355 million, with a total of 605 liquidation orders. Compared to both the previous day and a week ago, this is a significant reduction, indicating that the current market leverage pressure is light, with no intense liquidation drag. However, signals from the external environment are more cautious. Morgan Stanley reviewed the recent sharp drop in the US stock market and mentioned that the scale of leveraged ETF sales reached $57 billion that day, the highest level since 2007. The single-day leverage ratio decline of hedge funds ranked fifth since 2010. Since June, these funds have been continuously reducing exposure. Currently, they are underweight in the AI sector, although AI positions still account for 32% of their absolute exposure. Retail investors are also selling off simultaneously, and the correlation between assets is rising. In simple terms, BTC has short-term capital support and contract risks have been relatively cleanly released, but the institutional deleveraging sentiment in the US stock market has not yet dissipated. Cross-market linkage risks cannot be ignored. Once external volatility spreads, the crypto market can easily be influenced. We are currently in a tug-of-war phase with internal stability but external concerns. Sisters, not going shopping in broad daylight, I opened my account to count money again. Looking at $ZEC's 1184% profit, and then at the half-dead rebound on the chart, I feel sorry for the bulls. From the high of 1388, it plunged all the way down to 1235, and now the bulls are desperately trying to barely pull the price back to 1264. Switching to the 15-minute chart, the MA5, MA10, and MA20 moving averages are all tangled into a mess around 1260, with no clear direction. Focus on the MACD below, barely squeezing out a weak golden cross below the zero line, the red bars (0.49) are as tiny as grains of rice, soft and weak, not even able to break above zero. This is clearly just a breath after a big drop, a classic "dead cat bounce" bull trap—whoever chases it gets trapped! Look at my short position opened at the high of 1656, holding tight until now, steadily taking 1184% profit. This position was taken all the way down from the peak, what big storms haven’t I seen? No matter how it spikes up and down, the big trend is down, and I’m firmly holding this position. In terms of operation, don’t chase shorts at this position now. Let’s patiently wait for it to spike up; if it can rebound to the resistance zone of 1270-1280, decisively add to the short! Today I must have a good meal, ordering a super spicy hot pot, with full houttuynia. $BTC $ETH #美国10月非农超预期,12月加息押注升温 SanDisk sells more to data centers, Micron busy spending money on production lines SanDisk's quarterly data center revenue increased 61% quarter-over-quarter, with edge business up 7%. $SNDK contract quoted at 834.6 USDT, down 0.3% in the past 24 hours. Although data center revenue is growing fast, its absolute income is still lower than that of edge business. The company said it allocated more supply to data center customers, a detail more useful than just looking at growth rates: when total supply is limited, who gets more and who can accept higher prices determines which product line the incremental volume ultimately falls on. Micron $MU contract quoted at 693.27 USDT, up 0.4% in the past 24 hours. Recently disclosed fiscal quarter net capital expenditure was 10.77 billion USD, exceeding one-third of the full year's 27.37 billion USD. Equipment must be purchased first, factories built first, and shipment volume will increase later. Profits look good, but the cash left on hand must deduct the money spent upfront for the next round of supply. This scale of investment also exposes the production capacity that needs to be absorbed in the future. There is a time lag between production line investment and orders turning into revenue. $SKHYNIX contract quoted at 875.1 USDT, up 0.6% in the past 24 hours. Hynix's quarterly revenue increased 32% quarter-over-quarter, operating profit up 38%, with profit growing faster than revenue. Selling more high-priced products, along with price increases on core products, will widen the gap between these two lines. My understanding is that the most valuable part of this report to analyze is the product mix: selling the same additional amount of memory, whether it is ordinary products or high-value server products, can make a big difference to profit. #After the US stock market crash, tech stocks rebound, but the Nasdaq weekly chart still falls about 3.4% US semiconductor stocks surged then fell back; how will Korean, Hong Kong, and A-shares respond tomorrow? On Thursday, the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index was bloodied down 12%, the Nasdaq dropped 5.52% in a single day, and Nvidia evaporated 9% overnight. Friday looked like a rebound, with the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index closing up 4.2%, AMD up 11%, but intraday it once surged over 6 points only to give back more than half by the close. This is not a reversal; someone is running during the rebound. No sweet news came after the close: concerns about AI regulation after the midterm elections remain, and funds are still rotating from AI hardware to other sectors. For the opening of Korean, Hong Kong, and A-shares tomorrow, I think: Korean stocks will suffer the most. Samsung and SK Hynix are tightly linked to US chip stocks and already crashed once on Thursday. But the fundamentals are not bad; semiconductor exports in October surged 259% year-on-year, supported by both price and volume. Don't chase shorts, but don't rush to catch the bottom either; wait until foreign selling pressure eases. Hong Kong stocks have their own rhythm. Southbound funds net sold 3.2 billion HKD this week overall, but SMIC and Hua Hong were net bought 1.16 billion and 921 million HKD respectively. Money is flowing into semiconductors, not a full-scale attack. If the Hang Seng Tech opens lower, watch if SMIC can hold; if it holds, there will be short-term recovery; if not, it will continue to grind. A-shares are most sentiment-driven. Overseas AI valuation cuts and limited northbound participation mean semiconductors will likely face pressure at the open. But domestic substitution and rising wafer foundry prices are underlying anchors. Don't panic if it opens low; focus on whether there is buying volume after 10:30. Without volume, any rebound is fake.Everyone is focused on the 6.3 billion transferred in 19 minutes, but the real problem is that the person stayed in the system for several weeks before taking action. On the stablecoin side, the issuer can freeze about 2.85 billion USD within a few hours; on the Bitcoin side, 18,270 BTC are split across 19 addresses, not a single coin can be frozen. Elliptic's latest reading shows the stolen funds have been converted into about 2,300 BTC, approximately 175 million USD, accelerating from 1,650 BTC the day before, and there are still about 3.13 billion USD available in related addresses. The freeze race is won by the sprinter, but the residency time wins the whole game. The signature service has been used as an ATM once; next time, the competition won't be about who announces faster, but who can shut down the internal access before the money moves. I won't change this judgment for now.I don't touch high leverage; when news comes, you have to guess the direction, which is too stressful. I just hold and don't move, but holding for a long time means you also have to pay attention to how the research you usually follow is produced. According to PANews quoting Crypto.news, as crypto data company Blockworks shifts to AI products and prioritizes product development, at least 7 employees, including research and product staff, have recently announced their resignations. Former researcher Jake Koch-Gallup expressed regret and believes that independent research still holds value in the AI era. From my perspective, this matter currently seems more like noise regarding the long-term value of coins, but it is a signal about changes in information sources. Employee departures cannot directly imply the industry is deteriorating, nor can all voluntary resignations be simply attributed to AI replacing jobs; the current information does not support such a strong conclusion. Holding spot positions long-term, the fear is that the basis for judgment gradually narrows. My speculation is that if independent research supply decreases and everyone relies on similar AI summaries, it may seem like you have read a lot, but in reality, you might only be hearing the same interpretation. Making products convenient and having sufficiently diverse viewpoints are two different things. This news is not enough for me to change my long-term judgment, nor is it worth using leverage to bet on the success or failure of this transformation; volatility may not wait for facts to become clear. For friends holding long-term, when you look at AI-curated research, do you deliberately seek out an independent viewpoint to cross-check?$FIL Decentralized storage has a compelling proposition, but the economics deserve closer attention. Filecoin aims to create a marketplace for data storage through a distributed network of providers. The important distinction is between available storage capacity and actual customer demand. Network growth becomes more meaningful when real data-storage requirements generate recurring usage rather than capacity expansion alone.The days are getting tougher for offshore exchanges in the crypto world, especially for smaller exchanges, which are facing even greater difficulties. During this bear market, many exchanges have proactively chosen to shut down due to huge compliance costs, shrinking crypto traffic, fewer new users, and declining trading fees. Meanwhile, fixed costs still exist, and it’s no longer a profitable business. Exchanges like bitmex and coinex have both closed. As remaining users, we still have to keep our coins on major exchanges; I currently keep mine on Binance and Okx. Even if theft occurs, there is still a possibility of compensation. Recently, Binance was hacked, but in the end, they compensated us users. Offshore exchanges also have to face AI attacks and nation-level social engineering attacks, so survival is not easy. In any industry, in the end, it’s the survival of the fittest and the winner takes all. The previous intense competition among domestic group-buying platforms only resulted in Meituan surviving; the e-commerce platform battle only left Taobao, JD.com, and Pinduoduo. Now, after the exchange wars in the crypto world, only Binance, Okx, and Coinbase remain. This also indicates that the industry is beginning to mature, and the opportunities for us as investors are shrinking. I just hope the crypto world can give me another four-year cycle of bull and bear markets so I can grow my principal a bit more. Right now, I still feel some anxiety. Today's drama centers on the question, "Is this wallet his?" Crypto trader Ansem responded to ZachXBT's accusations. The accusations have two parts: promoting a token and being connected to the involved wallet. His response was brief—the wallet in question does not belong to him. What’s truly interesting is the addition from community user Naeven. He said that on-chain data cannot prove that the wallet belongs to Ansem. The address labeled as Ansem’s main wallet, AVAZ...NXYm, has transaction records pointing to another user, Dez, and is linked to this user’s Friend.tech account. This exposes an old issue with on-chain analysis: address ownership depends on labels, and labels depend on who tags first and who shouts loudest. If two addresses have transferred funds between each other or appeared together in some interaction, they are easily combined as the same person. This is probability, not a conclusion. It can serve as a clue, but there are several steps before it can be used to definitively identify someone. Back to the matter at hand. The accusations are currently not supported by on-chain data, but conversely, the party’s statement "it’s not mine" also does not prove innocence; it merely shifts the burden of proof back to the accuser. What’s worth considering is that on-chain data can prove transfers but cannot prove intent. We see how money moves, but what we guess about people’s intentions is always much more ambiguous.Geopolitical risks suddenly reignited, with loud explosions reported in the Saudi capital, rapidly intensifying risk aversion sentiment, and the crypto market was not spared. More importantly, funds are "running together": U.S. Bitcoin spot ETFs saw a net outflow of $1.28 billion this week, marking the largest weekly outflow since late June; Ethereum ETFs have experienced outflows for six consecutive weeks, and Solana ETFs have also had net outflows for five straight weeks. From rotating outflows to simultaneous outflows, selling pressure has spread from individual assets to the entire spot channel. $BTC: Around $75,770. This week, ETFs had a net outflow of $1.28 billion, with BlackRock's IBIT alone accounting for $403 million on Friday, wiping out the year's cumulative net inflows at one point. $75,000 is the current key defense line, with $76,000–$77,500 being the first recovery range above. $ETH: Around $2,235. ETFs have had outflows for six consecutive weeks, with net outflows in the past seven days. $2,250 has been lost, and the 200-day moving average at $2,160 is the next meaningful reference point; oversold but not yet reversed. $SOL: Around $89.75, closely hugging the 200-day moving average. ETFs have had outflows for five consecutive weeks, with $88–$90 as the short-term key range; breaking below opens downside space. In short: Geopolitical risks are heating up, ETF funds have shifted from "rotating outflows" to "running together," and the three coins are under synchronized pressure. The market is not waiting for a rebound but for when the funds will stop their comprehensive defense. For record-keeping purposes only, not investment advice. #美国10月非农超预期,12月加息押注升温 Within just 12 minutes, $676 million flowed from Sky into Aave. These whales chase interest rates faster than traders seek investment opportunities. At the time of transfer, the USDC rate offered by $AAVE was 5.82%, while $SKY only offered 3.80%. However, the influx of funds caused Aave's rate to drop to 2.38%. That's right, large sums of money are loyal to no one. They flow to where returns are higher, and once profits decline, they look for other investment opportunities.🔥 The storage sector has basically experienced a disaster this week 😥 $SNDK dropped from around 1170 at the beginning of the week to 835, hitting a low of 794 during the week, with a total decline of nearly 29% Keep in mind, this was one of the most favored storage leaders in the market before Thursday's concentrated sell-off was especially extreme; after the Democrats won the midterm elections, the market began to worry that US data center construction would face stricter regulations, and the AI industry chain collectively suffered valuation cuts SanDisk, Micron, and Hynix were all not spared Although the sector rebounded on Friday, the previous drop was too large, and the recovery remains limited I believe this crash needs to be distinguished into two things: 1. Market concerns about AI investment returns and future expansion speed are indeed rising 2. A few days of sharp decline cannot directly prove that NAND demand has fundamentally reversed This level of decline has already broken the previous strong structure; let's wait for prices to stabilize again before making further judgments $BTC is repeatedly tugging near 75800, and many bulls who chased in at 77000 are clearly feeling the strain 😄. What is truly worth being cautious about is not a single pullback, but the same level being tested repeatedly without breaking through — previously, after dropping close to 76000, there was a quick rebound, but now that momentum has been completely swallowed, and the price center of gravity has shifted downward again. This indicates that the buying support in this area is being consumed, and without large capital propping it up, the difficulty of an upward recovery will only increase. My judgment has never changed from the start: $BTC not holding above 72000 and $ETH not holding above 2100 do not constitute actionable buying points. Note that the logic here is not bearish to a certain price level, but treating 72000 and 2100 as "trend confirmation lines" — before the price reclaims these key levels, any rebound can only be defined as a technical pullback within a weak trend, not a bottom reversal. The synchronized weakness of $ETH also confirms that this is not an issue with a single coin, but an overall contraction in risk appetite. On the macro level, this round of weakness is being amplified. Negative non-farm payroll data, the market's probability of a December rate hike has risen above 80%; meanwhile, the Democratic Party's restrictive actions on tech stocks further suppress the valuation elasticity of risk assets. With these three heavy pressures simultaneously bearing down, both liquidity expectations and risk appetite are deteriorating, making it highly unlikely for $BTC to rise against the trend relying solely on its own buying support. This is also the core basis for my clear statement that "it won't go up": it's not about bearish sentiment, but about capitalAs of 4 PM yesterday, addresses related to the major exchange hack transferred out about 44 million tokens, worth approximately 51 million USD at the time, mostly swapped into another major mainstream coin This does not mean that all holders are selling, nor does it mean the market is dumping this coin This is the stolen batch being laundered, not insiders selling In the same monitoring report, the related addresses still held about 148 million tokens, worth about 173 million USD What can be confirmed is that hackers are swapping assets, not that everyone is selling $XRP The scariest thing about checking the market late at night isn't the drop, but suddenly realizing that your "sleep risk" in your position is bigger than you thought. Have you ever had that moment of regret right after buying, just staring blankly at the screen? The first time a friend pulled me into a crypto group, I saw everyone chatting about $BTC every day, so I bought a little bit too. That night, I tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Later, I switched to $ETH, and the fees made me stare at the screen in disbelief for a long time. One time, I set the wrong price late at night, and when I woke up the next day, I just wanted to bury my face in a pillow. Then I tried $SOL, which surged and plunged wildly—I even forgot to eat my instant noodles because of it. Now, I only keep a small amount of spare money in there; I don't chase trends or believe those screenshots flaunting profits. These experiences made me realize something anew: at this stage, rather than guessing the direction, you should first see if you can really hold on. BTC spot ETFs have seen a net outflow of about $416 million this year. After a sharp drop in the US stock market, tech stocks rebounded, but the Nasdaq weekly chart still fell about 3.4%. The US military struck Iran again, and although the Strait of Hormuz has reopened, disagreements remain. These signals combined indicate that risk appetite hasn't truly recovered; it's just being pulled back and forth by short-term emotions. The bullish logic is that the tech stock rebound shows some funds are willing to take on risk assets again. BTC, as a high-beta asset, will show elasticity first when sentiment recovers, and ETH and altcoins will also have pulse-like rebounds. But the risk is that ETF net outflows mean allocation funds are still withdrawing, and geopolitical news can bring back risk-off sentiment at any time. In this environment, chasing rallies is most likely to buy at a point where disagreement turns into distribution. So I
