ASML's Q3 revenue hits a new high, and whether future demand will materialize is testing risk appetite. UNI, as a high-beta altcoin, cannot remain unaffected; I tend to believe the short-term weakness is not over yet.
From the capital perspective, the current price at 7.028 is down 6.1%, with a volume of 17.454 million and open interest of 5.699 million. The positive fee rate of 0.01% indicates bulls are still holding positions, but the 4-hour retracement from the high is already 23.59%. Although buyers dominate the 1-hour by 1.38 times, the rebound looks more like short covering rather than new long entries.
If it rebounds to 7.135, consider light short positions with a stop loss at 7.318 and a target of 6.695; if it falls to around 6.648 and buying pressure increases, try going long with a stop loss at 6.512 and a target of 7.012. Do not exceed 5% position size per trade.

$UNI #TSMC Q3 revenue hits a new high, profitability performance to be revealed
#ASML Q3 revenue hits a new high, can future demand be realized?
$UNI 台积电又炸了。AI根本不是泡沫！连续第六个季度利润创新高。
三季度营收1.49万亿新台币，同比暴涨51%，净利润预计7463亿，同比飙65%。什么概念？一个季度赚的钱，比去年全年某些头部加密项目总市值还多。
但真正刺激的是：台积电现在等于AI世界的“印钞许可证”。
英伟达、AMD、苹果，管你谁家的AI芯片，最后都得排队进台积电的产线。更关键的是CoWoS先进封装——全球八成以上的AI加速器芯片全靠这条路线集成，而台积电几乎独占产能。这就叫卡脖子，只不过这次被卡的是硅谷巨头。
2nm制程从二季度的3%贡献直接拉到三季度11%，苹果和AMD抢着上。5nm以下先进制程营收占比冲到71%，四季度奔75%去。产品结构往高毛利方向死命迁移，定价权强到离谱。
台积电业绩是AI算力需求最硬的晴雨表。芯片代工端都在疯狂扩产，下游AI应用和算力网络的想象空间只会更大。链上AI、DePIN算力、去中心化推理这些叙事，底层逻辑正在被实打实的半导体数据一遍遍夯实。
台积电用财报证明了一件事：AI不是泡沫，是印钞机。问题是，你手里有沾边的筹码吗？#台积电Q3营收创新高，盈利表现待揭晓 $TSM CPI公布了，对照昨天的推演验算一下 昨晚 20:30，9 月 CPI 落地。先把真实数据摆出来，再对照昨天那篇推演逐项验算。 实际值（BLS 官方；预期值采用 CNN 报道口径，另列）： - 总体 CPI：同比 +3.7%（预期 3.6%，前值 3.4%），环比 +0.6% - 核心 CPI：同比 +2.6%（预期 2.5%），环比 +0.3%（预期 0.2%） - 汽油：环比 +9.1%、同比 +34.2%，贡献了超一半的环比涨幅 结论：超预期，而且是核心也超——这就落进了昨天推演的"超预期"情景。 对照验算： 1. BTC 是否如推演承压？是。公布前 BTC 在 $83,860 附近，公布后 5 分钟内跌到 $82,731。Bitwise 的 Matt Hougan 在数据公布后的早期评论中说，他原本以为会跌 3-5%，实际只跌了约 1%——跌幅比一些人预想的温和。 2. 82000 一带支撑有效吗？82000 一带曾被跌破，因此这次不能简单记作"支撑有效"。下次推演需要事先写清：以盘中触及、收盘位置，还是持续时间判断支撑失效。 3. 美债和美元的反应？公布后，美债收益率上行、美Revenue: Most likely to be flat, difficult to exceed expectations.
• The company guides revenue at about $12.86 billion, while the market consensus expectation is about $13.02 billion, approximately 1.2% higher than the guidance.
• Historically, Netflix's actual revenue usually fluctuates within ±0.5% of expectations (Q2 was $12.56 billion vs. expected $12.57 billion). If this expectation does not converge toward the guidance, revenue is more likely to slightly underperform.
Concerns:
• Viewing time in the first half of the year only grew about 2%, with growth mainly driven by price increases rather than user engagement.
• There was a one-time tax expense in Q3 last year, causing EPS to be significantly below expectations; such surprises have occurred before Q3.
• Profit margins are affected by the quarterly rhythm of content and marketing expenses.
My view: EPS is expected to beat by about 65–70%, revenue to beat by about 35–45%.
#Netflix growth may slow, advertising business becomes a new highlight PONS just said yesterday that the data rebounded, but I see the data has shrunk back a bit today.
Compared to October 12 and October 13, the latest daily platform fees and protocol income decreased by 30.83% and 35.98%, respectively.
With data performing so poorly, why did the coin price rise yesterday? I think it was more driven by news.
Yesterday, there was a rumor that Robinhood is preparing $100 million to support the Robinhood chain, which caused many ecosystem coins to take off. Whether it's true or not, I don't know, but quite a few. Crypto media picked it up again, which indeed stimulated the market a bit.
But to be honest, improving the core data is the key. You can't rely on news every time to drive buying; if it happens too often, the effect diminishes. It's like the story of the boy who cried wolf—it will eventually be exposed.
The effect was so good yesterday that I guess the data on the 14th might improve a bit. The market is too bad now, the overall market is like this, let alone any meme coins. #Circle财报在即，稳定币增长能否兑现收益？ 麻吉十天从巨鲸变小鱼儿，这波代价太大了！

Scene of the case: two conflicting clues.
Clue one: In the past week, $DOGE spot capital flow was a net outflow of $57 million, with the price dropping 8.9%, hovering around 0.085. Clue two: Around October 6, reports tracked whale addresses accumulating about $112 million in purchases.
One is going out, the other coming in. Who is telling the truth?
With over a decade of auditing experience, my take is: both are true, but they refer to different things. The $57 million outflow, scattered and rapid, is mostly small to mid-sized positions scared off by the market; the $112 million inflow, slow and heavy, is usually institutions or whales accumulating in batches at low levels.
This is called "rotation."
"Big cleanup" of chips
In financial markets, the healthiest rallies are rarely one-off; they come with intense volatility and cleansing. When the price hits the key support at 0.085, panic causes the less resolute holders to surrender their chips. This $57 million outflow is like removing sand from the foundation.
Meanwhile, the $112 million inflow is the cement quietly entering at this low level. Whales are not rushing to push prices up; they need enough space and time to gather sufficient chips. This "low-level absorption" behavior is often more noteworthy than a simple price rise.
0.085: The dividing line between bulls and bears #闪迪存储业务高增长能否延续？ Strolling Goose reviewed the financial report today and was shocked by SanDisk's data. In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2026 (ending July 3), SanDisk's revenue was $8.965 billion, a 51% quarter-over-quarter increase. GAAP net profit was $6.9 billion, with diluted earnings per share of $43.97. Non-GAAP earnings per share were $39.25. What does it mean to earn $6.9 billion in net profit in one quarter? It's equivalent to making $76 million every day. Even more astonishing is the growth rate. A 51% quarter-over-quarter increase, with about one-third coming from volume growth and two-thirds from price increases. In other words, SanDisk not only sold more but also sold at higher prices—and customers are still scrambling to buy. Why are people scrambling to buy even at higher prices? Because of AI. AI data center construction is creating structural demand for enterprise-grade NAND flash storage. Training a large model requires massive data storage, and the inference phase requires faster storage read speeds. The larger the AI model, the more storage is needed. NAND flash is the "granary" of the AI era. SanDisk's data center business is the best proof. In the previous quarter (Q3), data center revenue was $1.467 billion, a year-over-year surge of 645%. This is not growth; it's an explosion. Moreover, this is already SanDisk's third consecutive quarter of significantly exceeding expectations. Memory shortages and supply tightness continue, and prices keep rising. Customers are not choosing the cheapest supplier; they are scrambling for whoever has stock. SanDisk's own future outlook is even more aggressive. The company expects the NAND market size to reachThe kitchen stove hasn't been turned off yet, but the ledger is already on the table—168 billion in single-quarter revenue, a sharp 46% quarter-on-quarter increase. This pot of broth is boiling fiercer than any I've seen in my 20 years. But as a five-star veteran chef, I only ask one question: The broth is richer, but have the firewood costs been accounted for?
For the second consecutive quarter, the books have turned from red to green, with a gross margin just over 10% and positive quarterly cash flow. What does this mean in the kitchen? It means a dish has finally been made without losses, leaving a bit of sauce at the bottom of the plate. But any cook knows, a 10% gross margin is like balancing on a tightrope: rent, labor, gas—if any of these rise even slightly, this dish instantly turns into a loss.
More glaring is the turnover rate—its growth rate has slowed compared to the previous quarter. The storefronts keep expanding, but customers are eating slower, indicating the front of house is growing while the kitchen is getting clogged. Signature dishes can hold the scene, but what truly eats into profits are the ever-burning high-powered computing stoves and the two super spicy peppers continuously added: chips and data centers.
The ratio is the killer. Revenue is the main dish, computing power is the firewood in the stove, and chips are the chili peppers. The spicier the chili, the more the main dish’s original flavor is masked. What chefs fear most isn’t customers not coming, but the stoves multiplying and dishes getting pricier, until the whole table’s bill can’t even cover the gas.
Several Michelin-starred peers are fighting over the same batch of truffles, only to find the purchase price is already higher than the menu price—that’s the current state of this pot.
There’s another trick: flavored profits are plated with trimmed edges. The real ingredient losses going into the pot—R&D, depreciation, prepaid long-term contracts—aren’t written on the tasting menu. Good plating is skill, but customers judge by the spoonful they taste.
That so-called 2 trillion full set menu pricing, in October, invited tasters into private rooms, serving a flavored version, not the original. The pinch of salt that presses hardest on the tongue in the original is the ever-increasing computing power cost. Whether this price can hold depends not on how pretty the menu looks, but on this dish being served for three consecutive quarters, with turnover steady and broth not turning bitter.
The walk-in customers at the next table, following the orders, add more as they smell the aroma; the linked assets’ heat looks strong, but the cooking time is always controlled by someone else’s stove. Before picking up the chopsticks, first see clearly what’s in your bowl: is it the main dish, the seasoning, or that spoonful of super spicy chili? Eating chili as a meal will burn your stomach through.
This pot knows best: steadily serving a 10% gross margin and sustaining turnover is true skill; piling on firewood to create heat is smoke, not fragrance. #anthropicq3revenue16.8bAortic dissection is silent; the only sign is that the curve on the monitor sharply drops nearly eight points during trading.
On October 15, the heart of the South Korean market was bleeding on stage. The composite index plunged nearly 8% intraday, with the wound almost covering the entire anterior wall; Hynix and Samsung, the two main blood supply trunks, simultaneously went into spasm, the defibrillator pads (sidecar mechanism) were applied to the chest for the second time, the current was delivered, but the rhythm could not be restored.
The Nikkei 225 fell 4%, indicating ischemia had crossed the pericardium and spread to adjacent organs, with collateral circulation fully decompensated. The Nasdaq dropped 1.88%, meaning the distal embolus finally reached the left ventricle. Meanwhile, U.S. chip stocks declined for the sixth consecutive trading day—note, this is no longer an acute event. Acute ischemia causes pain and alarms; six days of continuous low perfusion is painless, causing myocardial fibrosis quietly, and by the time you hear it, it’s gallop rhythm.
Hot inflation data means systemic vascular resistance is up, afterload surges, and every ejection must fight higher pressure. Rising AI financing costs mean extracorporeal circulation perfusion flow is quietly reduced, but surgery continues and oxygen debt accumulates. Valuation is ventricular wall tension—the higher it is, the more oxygen consumed; storage price wars are aortic valve regurgitation, blood pushed out flows back, wasting part of each contraction’s work.
ASML’s equipment orders remain strong, which on imaging equals a coronary angiography report stating “main trunk patent.” But angiography looks at the pipes, ultrasound looks at the pump. Pipes are clear but the pump doesn’t move—the lesion is not in the vessels but in the myocardium itself. What the market is doing now is moving the probe from the vessel wall to the ventricular wall.
TSMC’s performance is the intraoperative frozen section cut by this scalpel. Only two things need to be distinguished: is it tachycardia—a rate-driven valuation reset, functional and reversible, adjustable with medication; or is the myocardium already necrotic—chip profit expectations systemically weakening, organic, requiring open-heart bypass surgery. Before the biopsy results, any large-scale operation is a blind puncture, and blind punctures most easily damage the conduction bundle.
The mapping target linked to Nasdaq and the chip chain now acts as a transplanted heart. Once the donor is ischemic, the recipient immediately rejects it; no one waits for pathology reports before starting anti-rejection drugs.
Price crashes are always just symptoms. What truly chills the spine is—the monitor alarms always come from the myocardium that still has electrical activity. #kospidropsnearly8%Money votes with its feet
Three signals from the funding side, none showing any favor. First, the funding rate: on 10/13 it was still +0.0062% long position fee, turned negative on 10/14, and today has slid to -0.0041%—shorts have started to consistently collect rent, the sentiment steering wheel has turned. Second, on the open interest side: today saw a net outflow of $86.91 million, total market contract open interest shrank back to $7.6 billion; over 7 days, the cumulative net inflow is only about $3 million, all the positions added during the rise were paid back during the fall, meaning a whole week of effort was wasted. Third, the US stock $BTC ETF net outflow in October has exceeded $450 million, just last week alone $679 million, about eight thousand coins, were withdrawn; the $65.4 million outflow on 10/12 came entirely from IBIT under BlackRock—if even BlackRock is pulling out, bulls still trying to bottom-fish here should first ask who is carrying their sedan chair. Oh, the seller is still shouting on TV that the bear market is over and $100,000 is back. Calls are free, withdrawals are real money, the market has already answered with the candlesticks. 刚刷到一条动态，看得我有点想笑又有点心酸。 你有没有过那种感觉：手里主流币都绿着，山寨却像被遗忘在角落？ 那位朋友晒了仓位，BTC、ETH都有浮盈，DOGE和PEPE却一路红到底。他自嘲说，垃圾币就当买彩票了，还好仓位不重。这句话其实比亏钱本身更值得琢磨。 市场对垃圾币有一套很顺的逻辑闭环。BTC涨，说资金先喂主流，山寨被抽血，跌是应该的。BTC横，说资金在观望，没人敢动，山寨没承接，跌也正常。BTC跌，说恐慌盘先砸垃圾，山寨跌得更猛，还是正常。听起来每一句都对，但合在一起就变成：无论涨跌横，山寨都找不到属于自己的上涨理由。 这背后其实不是简单的板块轮动，而是情绪定价权的问题。当市场只愿意给BTC和ETH溢价，风险偏好就没有真正扩散出去。资金不是没看到山寨，是看到了也不愿意承担那份不确定性。DOGE和PEPE这类标的，吃的是注意力、情绪和边际买盘，一旦这三样同时收缩，反弹就会变得很轻、很短。 偏多的路径也有：如果BTC稳住并慢慢抬高低点，ETH开始跟上，市场才会重新给山寨一点试错空间。那时候先动的往往不是最垃圾的，而是有社区、有流动性、有叙事的那几个。垃圾币的反弹通常滞后，而且高度依赖The market collectively took a hit, but ZK quietly surged 15 points. How much gold content does V God’s "milk" have?
Today, the entire crypto market is still paying off CPI debts, with total market cap dropping about 3.4%. Bitcoin is gasping around 80,000, yet the top gainer is ZK (ZKsync): it surged from 0.0148 to 0.0185 in 24 hours, a counter-trend +15%, quite a divergence.
The trigger is the new catalyst. V God publicly congratulated the zkSync Airbender team on X today, saying zkEVM’s "speed war has been completely won," and the next focus should be entirely on security. This Airbender Prime achieved 99% proof within 10 seconds on 7,200 mainnet blocks using a single Blackwell GPU, a solid narrative.
My take: this is a typical "technical milestone + leader shout-out" sentiment pulse. A few days ago, the founder proposed a buyback, setting the stage for funds to ride the momentum, which is reasonable. But be clear, its 24-hour trading volume is only a bit over $2 million, market cap under $200 million, RSI at 75, price breaking above the Bollinger upper band, a small cap that’s easy to pump and dump. Such volume chasing high prices has very low tolerance for error.
Watch two signals: whether it can hold above the 0.018 upper band with volume instead of pulling back after a spike; and whether the ZK ecosystem has follow-up verification progress after "shifting to security," since hype from a single tweet rarely lasts long. DYOR, not investment advice.
#ZK #ZKsync #Layer2$ETH CPI data released, overall inflation exceeded expectations, core inflation rose simultaneously, and the Fed's excuse of "only relying on energy price increases" was completely torn apart. The market responded with a sharp drop; what should we expect next?
After the data came out, Bitcoin $BTC directly fell below 82,000. ETF funds were already flowing out, and now with tightening macro expectations, buyers dare not enter. If 80,000 doesn't hold today, the next support is 78,000.
Ethereum $ETH is the worst hit; it was already the weakest among the three. ETF continues to bleed, staking yields can't keep up with U.S. Treasuries, and institutions are not stepping in at the bottom. When Bitcoin weakens, it falls the hardest, and today it continues to decline, likely hard to stabilize in the short term.
Gold $XAUT also plunged, spot gold dropped nearly 2%. Core inflation exceeding expectations pushed up real interest rates, the dollar and U.S. Treasury yields both rose, and non-yielding gold can only take a hit in the short term. But gold quickly rebounded today because ETF allocation funds are still flowing in, and central banks have not stopped.
The biggest difference between it and Bitcoin is that Bitcoin's buyers are on-chain whales, while gold's buyers are central banks and sovereign funds. The latter's capital attributes and patience are on a completely different level. Hold your Bitcoin and Ethereum spot positions firmly, unload all short-term leverage. Gold is under short-term pressure but fundamentally stronger than Bitcoin. $BTC $ETH $ZEC #USCPI exceeds expectations, rising to 3.7%, tonight PPI faces another test #TSMC Q3 revenue hits record high, profit performance to be revealed 💸Capital Confession Session: Who's Really Buying, Who's Just Pretending to Be Excited?
$BTC: Contract net inflow in 24h is 194 million, spot +44.7 million, short-term both green. But don't rush to pop the champagne—weekly -2.8 billion, monthly -5.3 billion, 12h still -102 million. This 194 million is just a recent rebound in the last few hours, more like an oversold bounce test, not a reversal signal. 🩹
$ETH: Scene of schizophrenia. Contract +57.55 million, spot -110 million. Leveraged traders are betting on a rebound, holders keep running. Both sides fighting, big money lacks consensus. If spot keeps selling, contracts will eventually be dragged down. ⚔️
$SOL: Contract -16.2 thousand, basically flat; spot +33.39 million. Someone is quietly accumulating, no one dares to leverage. Weekly spot +20.06 million, the only mainstream to turn positive. Dollar-cost averaging logic > contract speculation. 🌱
Summary: BTC tests inflow, ETH longs and shorts clash, SOL spot quietly buys. Three ailments, one common point—weekly and monthly charts are bleeding, big money remains cautious. Although BTC is strong, funds are just testing the waters, not going all in. 🚨
Conclusion: You can watch the rebound, but don't rush to call a reversal. Money is testing the temperature, not jumping into the pool. 🧊#US September CPI YoY rises to 3.7%, core inflation exceeds expectations #TSMC Q3 revenue hits record high, profit performance to be revealed #台积电Q3营收创新高，盈利表现待揭晓 TSMC's Q3 revenue hit a record high of 1.49 trillion New Taiwan Dollars, a year-on-year surge of 50%, setting a historic peak. The full earnings report and briefing at 14:00 today will focus mainly on profit and gross margin.
But don't just focus on TSMC; this AI chip frenzy is actually tightly linked with our crypto circle.
Recently, when semiconductors sneeze, Bitcoin catches a cold. Micron and SK Hynix fell, BTC slid directly from 83,000 to 81,600, and ETH dropped nearly 4%. Simply put, the money behind AI hype and crypto trading is the same group—when risk appetite tightens, tech stocks and crypto assets get hammered together.
TSMC's guidance tonight is essentially a "thermometer" for AI market sentiment. If the gross margin hits the 67% ceiling, it means computing demand is still burning hot, signaling a warm sentiment for crypto; conversely, if the guidance is conservative, funds may continue to withdraw from high-risk assets.
Keep an eye on 14:00; TSMC's earnings briefing could be the prelude to tonight's BTC direction choice. $BTC $xTSEM #TSMC Q3 Revenue Hits Record High, Profit Performance Yet to Be Revealed TSMC delivers an impressive "half report card": Q3 revenue approximately NT$1.494 trillion, up 50.9% year-over-year and 17.6% quarter-over-quarter, setting a single-quarter record; September monthly revenue reached NT$511.857 billion, soaring 54.6% year-over-year. The numbers are explosive, but this is on the revenue side; profit details will be disclosed at the October 15 earnings call.
The record revenue is understandable, fundamentally driven by three combined forces: Nvidia, AMD, and other AI chips fully occupying advanced process capacity, with CoWoS packaging still a bottleneck; Apple's new A/M series supporting the high-end consumer segment; 2nm moving from trial production to mass production, starting to contribute to revenue. In short, customers are not bargaining over price but competing for capacity.
However, profit is the real test. The company’s own Q3 gross margin guidance is only 65%–67%, lower than Q2’s 67.7%. The reason is straightforward: early depreciation and yield costs during 2nm ramp-up dilute margins by about 3–4 percentage points; overseas plants in the US and Japan have higher costs, diluting margins by 2–4 percentage points long-term. So the market is really watching three numbers: whether the gross margin can hold at 65%, whether Q4 guidance will increase quarter-over-quarter, and the capital expenditure outlook for 2027.Today's breadth data is painful: Among 283 coins in USDT perpetual contracts, only 19 are rising, with a median of -7.32%. $BTC fell 2.74%, seemingly "resistant to falling," but actually it's just falling slower, not not falling.
My three actions today:
1. No adding positions. In a market with a median of -7%, "cheaper because it fell" are the most expensive four words.
2. Cut leveraged positions first. Leverage amplifies the median decline; -7% multiplied by leverage is not a correction, it's an accident.
3. Watch ETH, not BTC. ETH fell 5.43%, SOL fell 3.98%—if the decline continues, altcoins and the main market have an order; the main market is just lagging.
The lesson is not that the market must fall, but that in a down market, "holding" and "being held" are two different things. I don't hate losing money; I hate not having control over my positions.
On days like today with a median of -7%, whose position will you cut first? Hold BTC, or look at the ETH in your hand first? $BTC $SLX
Not looking good, not looking good at all!
The institution incubating this project is about to enter liquidation, so what's the point of playing this game?
Solstice (the project issuing the SLX token) was incubated by **Deus X Capital**.
Deus X Capital founded Solstice Labs in 2024 and provided it with funding and resource support; it is one of the projects incubated under its umbrella.
Currently, this institution has announced it will shut down and enter liquidation (planned to be completed by January 2027), but the SLX project itself was still incubated by it.

What this institution does:
Deus X Capital is a crypto and fintech investment company supported by a family office, classified as an institutional investor. It was established in 2023, manages about $1 billion in assets, and its main businesses include investment, project incubation, and related operations. It is considered a relatively legitimate professional institution in the crypto field.There are some reasons to hold, so let's ask again
If the reason to buy $PEPE is to wait for sentiment to return, I think we should admit that our judgment is about market attention.
You can't say it's popular when it doesn't rise, then suddenly change your tune when it falls, saying you should hold it as a long-term project.
I'm more concerned about whether trading can remain active after the hype dies down.
If more and more people are discussing it but the price still can't push up, don't rush to explain it as having more room ahead. After all, there is real money between attention and buying.
For $SUI, I watch out for an illusion: just because the project is progressing well, you think you don't need to watch the supply during the holding period.
It has a total cap of 10 billion tokens, but tokens are still gradually released as planned, so the circulating supply will change.
This doesn't mean that release necessarily causes a price drop, but with the same demand, the tradable quantity might differ.
Being optimistic about the ecosystem is one thing; deciding at what valuation to buy is another matter to consider separately.
For $AVAX, you need to be careful not to mistake staking rewards as price protection.
Its staking rewards come from new issuance, while network fees have a separate burn mechanism.
The number of coins increases, but the account value can still decline.
So I won't ignore whether the original buying reasons have changed just because it can generate yield. Rewards can be counted as income but can't answer why you still want to hold.CPI data has been released, overall inflation exceeded expectations, and core inflation rose simultaneously. The Fed's excuse of "only relying on energy price increases" has been completely torn apart. The market responded with a sharp drop; what should we expect next?
After the data came out, Bitcoin $BTC directly fell below 82,000. ETF funds were already flowing out, and now with tighter macro expectations, buyers dare not enter. If 80,000 doesn't hold today, the next support is 78,000.
Ethereum $ETH is the worst hit; it was already the weakest among the three. ETF continues to bleed, staking yields can't compete with U.S. Treasuries, and institutions are not stepping in at the bottom. When Bitcoin weakens, it falls the hardest. It continues to decline today, and it is estimated to be difficult to stabilize in the short term.
Gold $XAUt also fell sharply, with spot gold dropping nearly 2%. Core inflation exceeding expectations pushed up real interest rates, and both the dollar and U.S. Treasury yields rose together. Non-yielding gold can only take a hit in the short term. But gold quickly rebounded today because ETF allocation funds are still flowing in, and central banks have not stopped.
The biggest difference between it and Bitcoin is that Bitcoin's buyers are on-chain whales, while gold's buyers are central banks and sovereign funds. The capital attributes and patience of the latter are on a completely different level. Hold your Bitcoin and Ethereum spot positions firmly, and unload all short-term leverage. Gold is under short-term pressure but fundamentally stronger than Bitcoin. $BTC $ETH $ZEC #美国CPI超预期升至3.7%，今晚PPI再迎考验 #台积电Q3营收创新高，盈利表现待揭晓 The US dollar surged. Bitcoin was dumped. The bet on rate hikes doubled.
September CPI is 3.7%, August was only 3.4%. Core is 2.6%, August was only 2.4%.
Both numbers are higher than expected.
The biggest increase was in gasoline, 9.1%. One person bears half the increase.
The first thing to break is not the coin.
It's the idea that "Bitcoin is only for risk speculation."
When I saw the gasoline number, my first reaction was to rush to fill up.
Then I found it was even more expensive than last week.
People are like that.
Alright, back to the main topic.
The Federal Reserve already raised rates by 25 basis points on September 16, now at 3.75%–4.00%.
Will there be another one? The next meeting is October 27–28.
Before the CPI, the market was betting about 20% chance of a hike. When the data came out, it became 47%.
In one trading session, it doubled.
The two-year US Treasury yield is 4.872%, up 7 basis points that day. The dollar also rose.
Look clearly:
Bitcoin pays no interest.
The two-year US Treasury pays you 4.87%.
That's all there is to it.
Now comes the hardest part.
I have a bit of a bias, this round of decline is not the coin's fault at all, it's that everyone suddenly remembered interest rates.
So I wrote two consecutive articles about interest rates yesterday, because this is the key focus now.
A few days ago, those shouting "next stop 100,000" have all gone silent these past two days.
And people who usually don't follow financial news opened accounts for the first time this week, first checked deposit rates, and then never came back. #TSMC Q3 Revenue Hits Record High, Profit Performance Yet to Be Revealed TSMC's Q3 revenue reached a historic high, mainly benefiting from the AI chip foundry boom. However, the market is more focused on profit quality: new process ramp-up and overseas factory construction have increased costs, raising doubts about whether the gross margin can hold at 65%-67% and if profits can match the revenue. Earlier AI expectations have been fully priced in, so funds chose to cash out before the earnings report, leading to a stock price pullback. #Netflix growth may slow, advertising business becomes new focus #TSMCOct15Earnings
TSMC's revenue record before October 15 had already been absorbed by the market. If we wait until the financial report day to see it as a positive surprise, the investment rhythm might have been delayed.
On October 8, the company had already announced September revenue data: a 54.6% year-over-year increase, and a slight 0.6% month-over-month decrease. This variance carries deep significance — the strong long-term growth trend does not necessarily mean every month must set a new record compared to the previous month. Minor monthly fluctuations are not enough to shake the big narrative of AI demand The market opened broadly in the red this morning 😵. The higher-than-expected CPI data caused a general pullback in the Crypto market. It's clear that it's being lumped into the same risk valuation framework as AI stocks. Sectors like RWA have dropped more than 6%. Ajian believes that what the market cares about now isn't $BTC or $ETH or any particular token, but rather interest rates, financing costs, and whether overvalued assets can hold up.
I've also emphasized before that in the current high-interest-rate economic environment, crypto asset valuations are walking a tightrope and are especially sensitive to market sentiment. Short-term funds love to target these kinds of assets first. If the token you hold long-term doesn't have enough income support, it's risky in this environment. #美国CPI超预期升至3.7%，今晚PPI再迎考验 The Dow fell 0.09%, almost unchanged; the Nasdaq dropped 1.88%. Two worlds in the same trading day.
Putting these two numbers together makes it clear: money hasn't left the US stock market; it has shifted from tech stocks to healthcare and consumer staples. The information technology sector fell 3% in a single day, while healthcare actually rose 2.4%. Eli Lilly and Merck rose by three to four points, a typical defensive rotation.
The root cause is still oil. In the past ten days or so, attacks on ships in the Strait of Hormuz have clearly increased. On October 11, daily crude oil passing through the strait was only about 2.9 million barrels, compared to over 20 million barrels a few days ago. Brent crude briefly rose above $106, gasoline prices increased by more than 30% year-over-year, and the September CPI rose 3.7% year-over-year, exceeding expectations. The 10-year US Treasury yield surged above 5.2%, the 2-year yield approached 4.9%, and New York Fed's Williams also said another rate hike this year makes sense.
Assets with high valuations fear this combination the most. Nvidia fell 3.2%, Meta dropped 3.3%, the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index fell more than 10% in five days, and CoreWeave dropped 15% in one day.
I tend to believe that as long as oil prices remain above $100, any rebound in tech stocks can only be seen as a bounce. Today, we first look at TSMC's earnings report. If the AI demand story is strong enough, semiconductors may get a breather; if not, this round of adjustment may not be over. After that, the FOMC meeting on October 27-28 awaits.
The xdm tech position can be held for now, adding on dips. In this kind of market, less trading is better. The midterm elections are approaching, and major turning points may come for the US-Iran and Russia-Ukraine conflicts. #Saudi Aramco headquarters attacked, crude oil supply under focus This CPI move has dashed the previous optimistic expectations of "peak rate hikes." #美国CPI超预期升至3.7%，今晚PPI再迎考验
In the short term, the macro trend is pulling downward. Rising rate hike expectations, increasing US Treasury yields, and a stronger dollar mean risk assets are generally struggling. BTC will not strengthen independently.
But in the medium term, there is long-term capital buying around 80,000. The ETF's single-day counter-trend inflow of 167 million is no lie. It shows that someone is willing to support at this level.
At this stage, the biggest taboo is trying to guess the bottom. Whether 80,000 can hold depends on upcoming PPI data and the FOMC meeting. Before the direction is clear, position sizing is more important than judgment. # Netflix Growth May Slow, Advertising Business Becomes New Focus
Three key variables truly determine the ceiling of the advertising business
1. Whether advertising ARPU can catch up with subscription ARPU
Currently, the per-user revenue of ad-supported plans is still lower than that of ad-free plans. The gap may only narrow if advertiser budgets, programmatic buying, and live CPM increase.
2. Whether live and highly engaging content can be continuously supplied
Live content like NFL, WWE, MLB has higher ad monetization efficiency and can boost user engagement, but it is costly and concentrated in scheduling, requiring proof of sustainability.
3. Whether AI advertising systems can improve delivery efficiency
Netflix is advancing AI-driven ad planning, creative adaptation, audience insights, and data clean rooms, which relates to whether advertisers are willing to increase budgets long-term.
Investment Judgment
Netflix's advertising business is worth tracking, but one should not focus solely on the slogan of "doubling ad revenue." More importantly, watch: ad plan ARPU, advertiser retention, live ad fill rate, programmatic share, and whether profit margins are diluted by content costs.
If these indicators improve, the ad business will shift from a "story" to "cash flow"; if not, it will only continue to support valuation rather than become a performance inflection point. With the release of this CPI data, many people have actually realized that the previously repeated market narrative of "inflation easing, rate cuts by year-end" is not so certain.
Everyone had assumed that the Federal Reserve's rate hike cycle was already over, so assets without interest like $BTC and $ETH could maintain their valuations in a high interest rate environment.
However, this time both CPI and core inflation exceeded expectations, which directly overturned that premise—the US Treasury yields surged, and now even holding risk-free US Treasuries can yield over 5%, so institutions naturally don't want to stay in volatile, cash-flow-free crypto; the continuous net outflows from ETFs are the most concrete evidence.
The chain of liquidations only accelerated the decline speed a bit; the real problem is that most of the current buyers are still old whales in the crypto space doing short-term trades, who won't hold for more than a few months before leaving.
In contrast, gold fell but quickly rebounded, supported by long-term allocations from central banks and sovereign wealth funds; they don't gamble on whether rates will rise next month. This kind of capital resilience is something the crypto space simply can't match right now.
Investment involves risks, and decisions should be made cautiously. The above analysis is only a market viewpoint sharing and does not constitute any investment advice.
#美国CPI超预期升至3.7%，今晚PPI再迎考验 TSMC’s record revenue figures were already public before October 15, so presenting them as an unexpected positive surprise on earnings day may be missing the bigger picture.
On October 8, the company reported that September revenue increased 54.6% year-over-year but slipped 0.6% compared with August. This highlights an important distinction: strong annual growth doesn’t necessarily mean revenue will rise every month.
#TSMCOct15Earnings # TSMC Q3 Revenue Hits Record High, Profit Performance Yet to Be Revealed
Why so strong?
● Advanced process fully loaded: 3nm accounts for about 30% of wafer revenue, 5nm about 33%, and 7nm and below total 77%; 2nm has also started scaling (about 11%), mainly benefiting from Apple's A20 Pro/M6 chips and AMD Venice server CPUs.
● Continuous investment in AI infrastructure: Next-generation AI processors like NVIDIA Vera Rubin platform and AMD MI450X are queued up competing for capacity, and CoWoS advanced packaging is also in short supply.
● Capital expenditure significantly increased: Full-year capital expenditure for 2026 has been raised from $52-56 billion to $60-64 billion, with 70-80% invested in advanced processes. #US CPI unexpectedly rises to 3.7%, PPI faces another test tonight Brothers, my personal analysis is that oil prices will surge to $100 before the midterm elections. First, let's talk about the US-Iran situation. Recently, Iran blocked the Strait of Hormuz, then the Houthi forces in Yemen attacked Iran, and Iran continues to stir up the Middle East situation. Iran's goal is very clear: to control oil as a powerful weapon. Excluding seasonal factors, global demand for oil is roughly the same every year, but now that Iran controls the oil, global demand cannot be met, which will definitely affect everyone's lives, and this impact will reflect on countries. To solve this problem, there must be US-Iran talks, but the US has no sincere intention to negotiate. Currently, the US is still trying to find solutions, but the root cause remains in the Middle East. So oil prices definitely won't come down anytime soon and may even hit previous highs because Iran will surely try to finalize the talks before the midterm elections. Otherwise, once the midterms are over, the "King" will definitely attack. So oil prices may not continue to rise, but they certainly won't fall.
Now about Russia and Ukraine, the war has lasted almost five years. Now, even if they want to stop, they can't. One side must admit defeat. If they wanted to negotiate, Russia and Ukraine would have done so earlier and wouldn't have fought this long. Ukraine definitely wants to negotiate, but Russia refuses. So Ukraine attacks Russia's energy facilities daily to pressure Russia through other energy-concerned countries. But Russia has no other strengths except stubbornness. So no one knows when oil prices will come down. This is my personal opinion and does not constitute investment advice $BTC #TSMCOct15Earnings TSMC's revenue record was already known to the market before October 15. Treating the same fact as a sudden positive surprise on the day of the earnings report might be a step behind the rhythm.
The company announced on October 8 that September revenue grew 54.6% year-over-year but declined 0.6% month-over-month. This contrast is quite interesting: strong long-term growth does not mean every month is higher than the previous oneFrom October 14 to 15, the crypto market experienced a sharp plunge. Bitcoin fell below $81,000, hitting an intraday low of about $80,500; Ethereum dropped below $2,400, once reaching approximately $2,317 on October 15, with a nearly 5% decline over the past week. Data from Coinglass shows that the total market liquidation exceeded $1.1 billion, with Ethereum long positions liquidated at about $330 million, the highest among all cryptocurrencies. Notably, this was not an isolated "crypto-only event." During the same period, the US Nasdaq index closed down about 1.9%, the S&P 500 fell about 1.1%, gold dropped below $4,100, silver plunged sharply, and South Korean memory chip giant stocks crashed suddenly. This time, crypto assets behaved more like "high beta assets" in the global synchronized deleveraging of risk assets. 2. Direct trigger: CPI exceeded expectations, renewed hawkish rate hike expectations Let's look at the data. The US September CPI released on October 14 showed a year-on-year increase of 3.7%, higher than the market expectation of 3.6% and above August's 3.4%, with a month-on-month rise of 0.6%. Core CPI excluding food and energy rose 2.6% year-on-year (expected 2.5%) and 0.3% month-on-month (expected 0.2%). Gasoline prices contributed more than half of the monthly increase, driven by rising oil prices due to Middle East tensions (Brent crude oil once rose to about $105). Why this CPI data is particularly critical. The key lies in the changed policy background: the Federal Reserve just completed its first rate hike of 2023 in September, and the market was previously debating "whether#台积电Q3营收创新高，盈利表现待揭晓
What I find truly worth looking at in TSMC's earnings report is not how much revenue has increased, but how long the AI business can continue to thrive.
The Q3 revenue has been announced, reaching NT$1.49 trillion, a year-on-year growth of about 50%, hitting a new high. This figure indicates that demand for AI chips remains strong, but it also means the market had already set high expectations for today's earnings report.
Next, focus on three areas: first, the gross margin—whether it can remain stable under the pressure of expanding 2nm process capacity; second, CoWoS advanced packaging capacity—whether AI chip orders can continue to support growth; third, the demand outlook for Q4 and 2027.
My view is that the AI industry cannot be easily underestimated for now, but we also shouldn't blindly chase the stock just because of performance growth. TSMC's good performance only proves strong demand in the supply chain, not that all AI concept stocks are worth buying.
Especially now, the market is trading not just on current profits but also on growth expectations for the next few years. If the earnings beat expectations but management does not provide stronger signals for future growth, the stock price may still surge and then fall back.
Tonight, I am more focused on management's statements about future orders and capital expenditures. What truly determines how far the AI market can go is not how much money is made today, but whether it can continue to exceed expectations next year.
What do you think? Will this TSMC earnings report continue to fuel the AI market, or is it a case of good news being priced in and funds taking the opportunity to exit? #TSMC Q3 Revenue Hits New High, Profit Performance Yet to Be Revealed The market already knew about TSMC's revenue record before October 15. Treating the same fact as a sudden positive surprise on the earnings day might be a bit late in the rhythm.
The company announced on October 8 that September revenue grew 54.6% year-over-year but declined 0.6% month-over-month. This contrast is quite interesting: strong long-term growth does not mean every month is higher than the previous one. Small monthly fluctuations are also insufficient to conclude the overall AI demand.
After the monthly revenue was disclosed in advance, the focus of the earnings report should shift forward. How the next quarter's orders are arranged, which demands can be sustained, and whether customers are pulling orders ahead are more informative than repeating the already public total figures.
In the conference call, I especially want to hear about the timing distribution of orders. If customers place orders early to lock in supply, and the subsequent demand expands in sync with actual usage, the implications for the next few quarters are different. It is still unclear which situation applies. This question is worth keeping.
Being optimistic about TSMC doesn't mean expecting only good news at every step. Strong companies also face changes in order rhythms. What really makes me cautious is that people increasingly need bigger growth numbers to be satisfied, yet no one asks what can still exceed expectations next quarter. For this earnings report, I want to hear more about follow-up arrangements and less about celebrating the existing records.
#TSMC Q3 Revenue Hits New High, What Other Highlights Are There in the October 15 Earnings Report? Today the overall market remains weak and volatile, with mainstream coins under pressure, but a few small and mid-cap coins have developed independent trends, which is quite interesting.
The most obvious is $WAL, a decentralized storage project in the Sui ecosystem. Its 24-hour trading volume and price increase are both very strong, showing clear signs of concentrated capital inflow, mainly driven by the narrative of AI data infrastructure. However, there is still unlocking pressure ahead. Currently, it is more a result of narrative-driven and concentrated trading rather than real demand validation. A sharp rise and a sound logic are two different things...
There is also capital movement in other directions. Tokens related to AI Agents like Quack AI (Q) continue to attract attention. Bitway (BTW), with a relatively large market cap, also appears on the heat charts. Directions like storage, AI, and privacy, including tokens like ZEC and STRK, have decent weekly performance, showing localized heat.
Overall, today is a case of structural hotspots rather than broad resonance. When the market is weak, capital tends to concentrate on targets with narratives and trading volume, but sentiment fades quickly and pullbacks happen fast. For $WAL, the key going forward is whether trading volume can be maintained and product progress can keep up, not just focusing on single-day gains.
The above is purely market observation and personal judgment, not investment advice. The market changes quickly, so partners should do their own research.I just checked the long-short ratio of BTC perpetual contracts on OKX, which is 1.8 now, while it was around 1.25 a day ago.
The price dropped more than 3% in one day, but the number of long positions actually increased as the price fell. At first, I thought big players were accumulating at the bottom. However, when I looked at the top 5% segment, the numbers didn’t add up: the long-short ratio by headcount is 1.23, but by position size it’s only 0.94. So there are more people going long, but the money is slightly more on the short side.
Therefore, the main buyers catching the falling knife are small accounts; the big players haven’t shifted their positions to the long side. If the top 5% position ratio goes above 1 in the next couple of days, then I’ll admit I was wrong.
Do you usually watch the ratio by number of people or by position size?
$BTC The $MON chain is a good public chain with excellent engineering capabilities, capable of running large-scale DAPPs without issues. However, it lacks distinctiveness and proprietary new technologies. It still mainly relies on the usual EVM+ optimized model. Given the current intense competition among public chains, with strong technical innovations like NEAR's Nightshade sharding, Sui's Move language object model, and AvAX's subchain architecture, $MON appears quite ordinary.Alpenglow能讓Solana最終確認快99%？10月21日要驗證三件事
Solana預定於10月21日啟用Alpenglow，取代TowerBFT共識機制。官方目標是將最終確認時間從約12.8秒縮短至150毫秒。
但投資人不能只看這個數字，真正值得觀察的是：
① 實際確認速度
150毫秒目前仍是技術目標，升級後要看主網能否穩定接近預期。
② 驗證者遷移是否順利
驗證者需使用基於Agave 4.3.0的客戶端。大型共識機制轉換，網路穩定性是關鍵。
③ 鏈上數據如何解讀
Alpenglow將驗證者投票移出一般交易紀錄，可能導致TPS與交易筆數結構性下降，但不代表真實用戶需求減少。
此外，10月21日首先導入的是Votor，Rotor資料傳播升級仍屬後續階段。
我的判斷是，Alpenglow具備重要技術意義，但最終成效仍須由主網實測證明。若升級延期、網路不穩，或確認速度未達預期，就需要重新評估市場原本的樂觀預期。
技術規格是目標，主網驗證才是證據。
#Solana主网提速，节点门槛会否上升？ $SOL $BTC fell 3.27% in 24 hours, dropping from 84,117.6 to 80,188 before rebounding to 80,908. During this period, the bulls suffered more losses: long position liquidations totaled $84.79 million, while shorts only liquidated $33.67 million. I am bearish. The funding rates for the last three periods were 0.0015%, -0.0018%, and -0.0041%, becoming increasingly negative, indicating that shorts are willing to pay to hold positions. This structure usually leads to further price declines. Options trading shows a put/call ratio of 1.05, higher than the open interest ratio of 0.91, with new orders leaning towards buying protection. DVOL at 38.8 is not high; if PPI turns hotter, volatility has room to expand. Contract open interest remains at $7.48 billion, leverage has not been fully cleaned out, and if macro pressure increases, longs will be liquidated further. The expectation is for the price to first break below 80,188. Conditions for a bullish reversal: price must reclaim 84,117.6, and funding rates return to positive. If PPI cools down, the macro pressure will ease, and the main factor will be leverage unwinding itself, which will have a much smaller impact.#台积电Q3营收创新高，盈利表现待揭晓 台积电第三季度营收创下新高，市场关注的焦点已经转向盈利能力：AI芯片需求能否继续支撑高毛利率，以及先进制程扩产带来的成本压力是否会影响利润增长。
对于投资者来说，营收增长只是第一层信号。更重要的是利润增速能否跟上，以及管理层对第四季度AI需求和资本开支的判断。
如果利润率保持韧性，说明台积电不仅获得了AI订单，还保留了较强的定价能力；反之，即使营收创新高，也可能面临市场对估值的重新审视。
台积电的财报，实际上也是观察全球AI产业链景气度的重要窗口。

所以这篇帖子用“盈利表现待揭晓”是准确的，不宜提前写成“净利润已经创新高”。$CRWV dropped more than 16% today and has plummeted over 50% in the past 5 months.
The reason is its debt. CoreWeave owes about $35 billion in debt and paid $640 million in interest just last quarter. Investors are now starting to sell off this debt. Its 2032 bonds have fallen more than 23% since June.
Bond trading prices are so depressed that they are considered distressed.
Due to the price drop, anyone buying these bonds now can earn over 15% annually. Therefore, 15% is now the cost CoreWeave must pay to borrow money.
This is a big problem because it plans to spend $35 billion to $39 billion this year but only has $5.5 billion in cash. It must keep borrowing to maintain construction.
Credit default swaps, which investors use to hedge default risk, now price CoreWeave’s probability of default within 5 years at 58%.#美国CPI超预期升至3.7%，今晚PPI再迎考验 The US September CPI rose year-on-year to 3.7%, higher than August's 3.4%; month-on-month it increased by 0.6%. Core CPI rose year-on-year to 2.6%, with a month-on-month increase of 0.3%. Rising energy prices are the main driver, but core inflation remains sticky, indicating that inflationary pressure cannot be simply attributed to oil price fluctuations.
This data puts the Federal Reserve in a more difficult balancing act: employment growth has clearly cooled, yet inflation is rising again. Market concerns about further rate hikes are intensifying, the direction of pressure on the dollar and US Treasury yields has also changed, and the valuation space for risk assets is being tested.
Tonight, the US September PPI will also be released at 8:30 AM Eastern Time, which is 8:30 PM Beijing Time. Whether producer prices cool down simultaneously will help the market judge if cost pressures continue to transmit to the consumer side.
For BTC, the current worst-case scenario is rising inflation, increasing rate expectations, and cooling employment simultaneously. If PPI continues to exceed expectations, the market may further lower easing expectations; if producer-side pressure eases, there is a chance to mitigate the impact brought by CPI. The key tonight is not just the data level, but whether inflation is spreading. $BTC Core DAO proactively withdrawing its validator nodes can be interpreted in two completely different ways: whether it voluntarily delinks and exits the validator set or is just a temporary shutdown. 1. The ideal interpretation: Decentralization (positive narrative) The Core network has only 31 active validator nodes in total. - The foundation proactively exits its its official validator nodes, no longer monopolizing validator seats, and hands over block production rights to third-party community validators. - This means the project team no longer controls the network, weakening the foundation's control over the chain, aligning with the goal of decentralization of public chains. - This is a routine practice for many public chains in the later stages and does not mean the chain is about to run away. But here's a key point: although official nodes exit, if a large number of staking orders remain concentrated in the hands of a few top validators, the network remains highly centralized, with control simply transferred from the project team to a few large players. 2. Negative Signals to Watch Out For (Market Concern) If the core official validator node suddenly withdraws without prior announcement, the market generally interprets it as the following issues. 1. Project team operations and maintenance contraction and budget cuts Running validator nodes requires ongoing server and operational labor costs. - Token prices remain sluggish, ecosystem revenue falls short of expectations, teams cut expenses and no longer bear validator costs. - This indicates that project teams are unwilling to continue investing in maintaining this chain, signaling weakening fundamentals. 2. Lack of team confidence $BTC

台积电 Q3：营收已经不是悬念，真正要看的是三件事
Q3 营收约 1.49 万亿新台币，同比增长约 50%，这个数字月报里已经陆续公布过，大概率已经反映在股价上了。今天财报说明会，我盯三个地方：
1️⃣ Q4 营收指引：营收靠 AI 订单冲高之后，市场要的是“还能不能继续”。指引如果只是符合预期，很可能出现利好兑现、股价回落；指引明显上调，才有新的上涨动力。
2️⃣ 资本开支有没有上调：资本开支上调，说明台积电对 AI 需求的判断比市场更乐观，这对整个 AI 链（英伟达、设备股）都是正信号。
3️⃣ 毛利率：营收增速高，不代表赚得一样多。海外建厂成本、汇率都会压毛利率，看它能不能守住高位。市场预计 Q3 净利润约 7463 亿新台币，实际数字和这个预期差多少，决定今晚的情绪方向。
我的思路：财报前股价已经回调了 2% 多，说明市场有分歧。我不在财报前重仓赌方向，先用小仓位，等 Q4 指引出来再加仓或止损。

The comprehensive weakening of the US CPI data in September was the core trigger for this round of crypto market correction. The overall CPI month-on-month rose by +0.6%, meeting expectations, but the year-on-year figure at 3.7% exceeded the expected 3.6%; core CPI rose 0.3% month-on-month and 2.6% year-on-year, both surpassing market expectations. #美国CPI超预期升至3.7%，今晚PPI再迎考验
After the data release, market expectations for rate hikes surged sharply, with the probability of a rate hike in October doubling to 44%-49%, and the probability before year-end exceeding 95%. US Treasury yields and the US dollar index rose simultaneously, US stocks plunged, and the crypto market was passively pressured.
$BTC daily chart shows slight resistance to decline, falling from 83,430 to 81,784, losing the 20-day moving average and breaking below several medium- and long-term moving averages, indicating weakening technical patterns. The key support is at 81,603; holding this level maintains a wide oscillation between 80,300-84,000;
A breakdown would target 80,365 and 78,003. The funding side has slight support, with a net inflow of 175.7 million in spot ETFs on 10/13, recovering from the previous day's outflow, but the earlier large gap has not yet been filled. Intraday range is 80,800-83,000.
$ETH continues its weakness, with significantly higher leverage risk; perpetual open interest market value accounts for 15.3%, three times that of BTC, and long positions have not been fully cleared. The short-term critical level is 2,400; breaking below targets 2,330 and 2,250, while holding above 2,500 is necessary for recovery conditions.
