$UNITREE 73% of people are short, today it directly surged to 109, shorts got squeezed
Unitree hit a high of 109.50 today, breaking through the 100 mark.
But the really interesting part isn't the price increase, it's the data. 72.86% of accounts are short, the long-short ratio is only 0.37. The funding rate is -0.74%, what does that mean? Shorts have to pay longs 0.74% every 8 hours, three times a day, which is 2.2%. Over three days, the funding alone eats up 6.6% of the principal.
This is why the price surged so sharply today. It's not that people are bullish on Unitree, it's that there are too many shorts. When the price rises a bit, some shorts are forced to close their positions, closing requires buying back, buying back pushes the price higher, and the more it rises, the more shorts close.
This is called a short squeeze. Beichen mentioned this risk before: when shorts are too crowded, a single bullish candle can trigger a chain reaction. It happened today.
In terms of trading, wait for a pullback to 102-104 to enter, stop loss at 99, first target 109.5. The short squeeze isn't over yet, shorts are still paying. As long as it doesn't break 100, the trend is on the bulls' side! #美国10月CPI前瞻：12月加息预期会否改变？ Last Thursday's crash pulled global risk assets straight back to reality from the post-election euphoria. The Nasdaq Composite Index fell 5.52% in a single day, the S&P 500 dropped 4.36%, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average declined 3.44%; the Nasdaq 100 fell 6.4%, and the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index dropped about 12%. The sell-off was concentrated in the AI and data center industry chains, with Nvidia falling over 9%, Tesla nearly 11%, and crypto-related stocks like Coinbase and Strategy also down about 9%. This was not a negative event for any single company, but rather the market reassessing the return cycle of AI investments. The new political landscape may increase uncertainties around data center construction, energy consumption, and industry regulation, while some chip companies' earnings and guidance failed to meet previous high expectations. As the most crowded AI trades began to unwind, the capital naturally cut back first on the highest-valued and most elastic assets. The crypto market then came under synchronized pressure. $BTC quickly fell from around $81,000 to below $76,000, with about $1.09 billion liquidated in 24 hours, affecting over 210,000 traders, the vast majority of whom were long positions. Stocks and cryptocurrencies fell together during the same trading session, indicating that the market was undergoing an overall risk contraction rather than a new credit crisis within the crypto industry. On Friday, the US stock market did see the first round of recovery. The Nasdaq rebounded 1.1%, the S&P 500 rose about 0.3%, and Nvidia recovered about 2.8%; however, the Dow Jones still fell about 0.5%, and none of the three major indices recovered Thursday's losses Brothers, $1.49 billion liquidated, 240,000 people wiped out, $1.29 billion all long positions. This overnight cold shower drenched the bulls to the bone.
First, let's look at the most brutal liquidation data.
In the past 24 hours, the entire network forced liquidations totaled about $1.49 billion, with longs taking $1.29 billion, accounting for 86.8%. More than 240,000 accounts were directly wiped out. BTC liquidations were $475 million, ETH liquidations $331 million. The largest single order was a BTC long on Binance of about $11.09 million; within one hour, $629 million was liquidated, almost all longs.
The price is already unbearable to watch. BTC crashed from above 81,000 down to 75,463, hitting the lowest point since September 16; ETH fell from 2,437 to around 2,220, a drop of over 7% in 24 hours.
The trigger is not within the crypto circle.
After the midterm elections, with Democrats controlling both houses, the market started pricing in a slowdown in AI data center construction. The Nasdaq plunged 5.5%, and the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index once dropped 10%. The tech stock sell-off transmitted to the crypto market, with BTC’s 50-week moving average at 75,733 briefly breached. But what really amplified the drop was the leveraged longs’ own stampede—previous rebounds mainly relied on short covering, with open interest barely increasing; once the direction reversed, chain liquidations pushed prices off a cliff.
But more worrisome than the crash is the ongoing bleeding of ETFs.
Last week, BTC spot ETFs saw a net outflow of $1.28 billion, the worst single week since late June; ETH spot ETFs had a net outflow of $365 million, marking the sixth consecutive week of losses. BlackRock’s IBIT was the largest outflow driver, with over $400 million withdrawn in a single day on Friday. The cumulative fund flow for US BTC spot ETFs in 2026 has turned negative, with a net outflow of about $914 million year-to-date.
On the surface, it looks like institutions are retreating. But the real signal is on-chain.
This morning, a giant whale sold 410 BTC, directly swapping it for 14,000 ETH on a DEX. At the same time, an old wallet of the Ethereum Foundation sent over 4,000 ETH to Kraken.
Leveraged longs are being cleaned out, ETF funds are continuously flowing out, but whales are shifting chips from BTC to ETH amid the decline. Three forces, three directions, all happening simultaneously.
Here’s the direct strategy:
BTC is now holding hard around 75,700; 75,000 to 75,400 is the bulls’ last stronghold. Once this position breaks, there’s a deep pit below. Don’t think the bottom is reached just because $1.4 billion was liquidated; clean liquidations don’t mean buy orders return. Wait until ETF outflows stop or volume picks up to reclaim above 76,500 before talking about a rebound. Before that, any bottom fishing is catching a flying knife.
ETH’s 2,200 is the psychological defense line and the last dignity of this wave of bulls. Hold it, and there’s still hope; break it, and the cost zone where whales are repositioning will be tested. With six consecutive weeks of ETF outflows, ETH’s support is much more fragile than BTC’s. Don’t heavily bet on a bottom at 2,200; be careful not to lose even your last pair of underwear.
Leverage is dead, but spot hasn’t arrived; ETFs are running, but whales are rotating. In this market, the most dangerous thing is not being wrong on direction, but mistaking liquidation clearing for buyback. Hold your hands, wait for real support signals before acting.

#BTC与ETH现货ETF单周净流出超16亿美元 At 5 a.m., a single spike directly pierced the key support at 74,000, with the latest low data reaching 73,333, consistent with the expected trend. Recently, there is a very important piece of news: Nasdaq has started 23/5 trading, meaning continuous trading five days a week, 23 hours a day, with only a one-hour maintenance window. Please note that the official implementation date is December 6. This has little to do with blockchain technology and continues to use traditional technology. Why does Lao Cui think this news is very important? It resembles a trial run of tokenization. Although there are no traces of the crypto world in the short term, the inspiration for 23-hour trading definitely comes from earlier tokenization companies. The profits are also visible: the Solana ecosystem's Real World Assets (RWA) total market value has reached $4.8 billion. Among them, tokenized funds amount to $3.7 billion, tokenized stocks $1.1 billion, and tokenized commodities $31.9 million. This data is from yesterday. The release of this kind of news acts as a bottom support during the bear market cycle for the crypto world. In this regard, Lao Cui finds it hard to see Bitcoin's price falling particularly low. Even though this bear market cycle has begun and the news pressure is so intense, Lao Cui still does not dare to expect a new low so far. You can review history: Bitcoin's darkest moment also started with domestic crackdowns. At that time, Bitcoin was controlled by Grayscale, with almost no major capital involvement. A single operation of around one billion could cause a disastrous crash in the crypto market. What about now?$BTC, you’re too sneaky, always launching surprise attacks when liquidity is low on weekends. No wonder I had nightmares last night.
At 4 to 5 AM, Bitcoin slammed down 3% in one go, and $ETH plunged even harder by 7%. This violent deleveraging wiped out over 700 million dollars from the longs—truly brutal!
But looking at the long-short data, Bitcoin longs still hold over 70%, only three percentage points less than before the sharp drop. After the dump by the big players, the price quickly bounced back to 73,000, showing strong long interest there. Many shorts have closed positions, and most liquidations were from high leverage.
It seems those liquidated liquidated, those taking profits took profits, and those bottom-fishing bottom-fished. Human joys and sorrows are not shared!
This kind of sharp break and quick V-shaped recovery looks exactly like the price bottoming after sweeping out long liquidity. But don’t think it’s stable as ever. The outside world is full of dangers: US stock ETFs see daily net outflows of 300 to 400 million, AI tech funds are collectively fleeing to safety, non-farm payroll data supports rate hike expectations, and policy uncertainty looms overhead. None of these are reassuring.
So,
Longs, I advise you to take it easy! BTC in the past 24 hours is down 1.4%, clearly outperforming ETH and SOL, indicating that capital still trusts large market cap assets more.
It must be said, compared to the record from last night, BTC was down 1.3%, ETH down 5.0%, SOL down 4.0%; now BTC is $74,839.61, ETH $2,127.26, SOL $86.53. The overnight changes are already significant, so today's judgment cannot rely on yesterday's.
BTC's relative strength usually indicates that capital wants exposure but is not yet willing to take on too much risk. For altcoins, this is not an environment for a full-scale offensive.
BTC can continue to be watched, but altcoins need to be more selective.
$BTC $ETH "Morning Spike: Bulls Pay Tuition First, V-Shaped Rebound Still to Be Verified"
This morning, the crypto market dealt a heavy blow to the bulls. ETH plunged sharply from around 2220 to 2051, BTC slid from 75700 to 73385. Many woke up to stop losses, some even liquidated directly. Within 4 hours, long positions worth $740 million were liquidated, including about $320 million in ETH, which is $100 million more than BTC, clearly showing the crowded leverage.
Prices then pulled back, showing a V-shaped recovery on the chart, but this looks more like a technical rebound after a sharp drop rather than a confirmed bottom. The battle between bulls and bears near the moving averages has just begun: only if the pullback holds above support with volume can it be considered a true bottom; if the rebound is weak, the bulls might just be a flash in the pan.
Don't rush to conclude a reversal in the short term; the market may still experience repeated shakeouts this morning. The real variable is the CPI on the 10th; controlling position size before the data is more important than trying to catch the bottom. The above is just market observation.

#美国10月CPI前瞻：12月加息预期会否改变？ Summary of External Negative Factors:
1. Fed December rate hike expectations rise, US Treasury yields remain high
👉Negative impact: High valuation growth stocks such as STAR Market 50, AI, semiconductors, photovoltaics; Hong Kong stocks, Chinese concept stocks, and heavily held northbound stocks; a stronger US dollar tends to cause northbound capital outflows.
👉Relatively resistant: High dividend, dividend-paying, and banking stocks.
2. Nvidia plunged overnight
👉Negative impact: Nvidia's industrial chain, optical modules, PCBs, AI servers, computing power leasing, HBM; sentiment pressure on STAR Market computing power sector.
👉Hedge: Domestic computing power independent lines (differentiated, not all falling together).
3. Repeated Middle East tensions, Strait of Hormuz shipping risks, oil price volatility
👉Negative impact: Aviation, logistics, downstream chemicals, consumer sectors, and most growth stocks; a sharp rise in oil prices will push inflation, further locking in expectations against rate cuts.
👉Positive (hedge): Oil and gas, petroleum and petrochemicals, coal, military industry.
4. Berkshire Hathaway cash reserves remain high, overseas institutions cautious
👉Negative impact: Global risk appetite, Hong Kong stocks, and high-valuation thematic growth stocks are prone to foreign capital reduction; large-cap sentiment tends to be weak.
👉Impact characteristic: Mainly sentiment-driven, not fundamental negative.
5. Goldman Sachs lowers year-end gold target price
👉Negative impact: Gold stocks, precious metals sector, gold-related targets in non-ferrous metals.
👉Support: Central banks continue gold purchases, medium- to long-term logic remains, only short-term expectations are lowered.
The above is blockchain quantitative analysis and does not constitute investment advice.Bitcoin mining difficulty has not returned to its historical peak for 374 consecutive days.
The peak was at 155.97T on October 29, 2025. This is the longest "no new high" period in the network's history, surpassing the 364 days after the 2011 crash and also exceeding the period after China's ban in 2021.
In the past, such a prolonged difficulty stagnation had only two explanations: a crash or a ban by a major country. This time, the explanation is: AI is bidding highest $BTC also plummeted, breaking below the 76K lifeline
The catalyst surprisingly was Huang Renxun's extramarital affair and chip loss, causing Nvidia's stock price to plunge intraday, which also dragged down BTC's 76K lifeline.
BTC currently breaking below 76K aligns with my forecast in last week's market report:
Is the bull market a correction or an end?
First, look at the structural pattern: 76K is the bottoming, 70K is the dividing line for a deep correction.
70K is the boundary between a healthy correction and a deep correction, overlapping the large cycle 0.5 and small cycle 0.382 levels. Breaking below it changes the nature of the correction but does not mean the bull market has failed.
My judgment:
Short term, 76K bottoming, the rebound is structural, not trend-based.
Medium term bearish bias, the decline is a choppy downward drift, not a waterfall crash; falling near 70K is a high probability event.
Long term, the bull market structure is intact, 70K is the dividing line, 58K is the endpoint. Need to watch whether the AI bubble bursts in 2027 triggering a US stock market crash and global financial crisis.”
#美国10月CPI前瞻：12月加息预期会否改变？ $RAVE has no positive news; 95% of the pump-and-dump operators are highly controlling the market. The overall trend is bearish.
OKX long-short ratio shows an "extreme bull trap."
Retail investor long-short ratio: 3.57 (extremely bullish)! Retail investors are frantically bottom-fishing.
Whale count long-short ratio: 1.62 (bullish).
Whale position long-short ratio: 0.74 (extremely bearish)! Main force inclination: extremely bearish!
Conclusion: The 1.62 ratio in number of people is a facade; the real capital positions are directly crushed down to 0.74. The retail investors' 3.57 fervent long positions are the perfect counterparty to the main force's 0.74 short positions.
RaveDAO issued an official statement on April 19, 2026, clearly stating that it will sell part of the unlocked tokens at an appropriate time according to the token release schedule (TRS), with proceeds used for operations, global recruitment, marketing, strategic acquisitions, and charitable projects.
$BTC $ETH #美国10月CPI前瞻：12月加息预期会否改变？ Looking at this response, it's like handing over the car keys and then coming back to explain: I didn't press the accelerator. Fine, but the problem is that the speed limit wasn't even set when handing over the car 😂
Delta stated that early OTC allocated 26 million $DELTA tokens to partners, accounting for 2.6% of the supply, in exchange for operational funds and marketing support, of which 16.5 million have been sold. These tokens have no vesting period, lock-up, or other restrictions. The team says they cannot control the partners' sales and published on-chain records to prove they did not sell directly.
What I care more about is the allocation rules, not who pressed the sell button: without lock-up, marketing cooperation may misalign with long-term expectations of token holders; public transaction records can explain the flow of funds but cannot compensate for prior constraints. These are not the same issue and "not selling personally" cannot replace an answer.
Do you value lock-up before cooperation more, or public transaction records after the fact? Choose one: do you want a seatbelt or a dashcam?9.5 million tokens are still in two receiving wallets. I tend to consider the worst-case scenario first: if the partners continue selling and the market cannot absorb it, the price pressure may increase. This is speculation, not a sell-off warning.
My judgment is that $DELTA's recent clarification did not eliminate the supply risk: the partners have no lock-up constraints, and the team has no authority to control sales. Explaining who is selling clearly does not mean the risk is gone. ⚠️ Ordinary people should first list the amount of loss they can bear per trade. When facing this kind of potential selling pressure, how much stop loss do you usually set per trade?$PRIME — Competitive Gaming and Digital Ownership
Gaming ecosystems are experimenting with ways to connect players, communities, and digital assets. PRIME is associated with the Parallel gaming ecosystem. The important test is whether the game can build a loyal player base and maintain meaningful activity without depending entirely on token speculation.I think of replacing water pipes in the old street: new pipes are laid quickly, but the joints between old and new are the most troublesome. After retiring and learning about digital assets, I increasingly feel that the weight of renovation depends on how the handover points are handled.
The Ethereum community submitted the EIP-8488 draft proposing parallel V2 opcodes, charged according to the new standards of EIP-8037 and EIP-8038; after activation, newly deployed contracts can only use V2, existing contracts continue with the old Gas plan, and V2 cross-contract calls must also target V2. It is still an early draft.
I think this is an important engineering trade-off and cannot be directly regarded as a fee reduction benefit. Old contracts retain the original charging, reducing the burden of forced adaptation; but the V2 call restrictions also create challenges for combining new and old applications, affecting developers more directly. Young friends, don't rush to treat the draft as finalized; I still want to see how compatibility issues are resolved.Selling three BAYC NFTs, let me first pour some cold water: this still doesn't support the narrative of "NFT funds shifting to ETH." According to Ember monitoring, after Maji Big Brother was liquidated, he still holds about $1.48 million in ETH long positions. What concerns me most is that selling NFTs and opening longs are mentioned in the same message, which easily leads people to imagine an unverified funding route.
I don't accept this deduction for two reasons. First, the source doesn't explain where the proceeds from the sale went; the two actions happening simultaneously doesn't mean the former funded the latter, so you can't reconcile his accounts for him. Second, personal disposal of collectibles and a sector being abandoned by capital are two different things. If you infer NFT weakness and ETH strength just from these three NFTs, in my view, you're amplifying a personal choice into an industry signal. For ordinary players, the easiest pitfall is to use a celebrity's actions as evidence to justify their own directional judgments.
Of course, those bullish on ETH might be right; my bearish stance doesn't mean I oppose everything I see. If later we see broader, sustained capital flows rather than stories revolving around one person's position, I will adjust my judgment. For now, I treat this as a message about individual risk preference, not evidence of sector rotation; first, let's clarify where the funds are going before discussing how big the story is.Revenue exceeded expectations at $4.7 billion, but profit dropped by 28%
Berkshire's Q3 released on Saturday: revenue $105.65 billion, up 11% year-over-year, higher than the expected $100.96 billion
But net profit was $22.11 billion, down 28% year-over-year
Operating profit $12.71 billion, down 5.8%
The drag was insurance: underwriting profit $1.35 billion, down 43%
GEICO's underwriting profit was $982 million, compared to $1.77 billion in the same period last year, more than halved
Loss ratio rose from 71.5% to 76.6%, the cost of cutting prices to win customers
On the other hand, cash was $377.4 billion, $11.9 billion more than at the end of June
Q3 buybacks were $9.6 billion, totaling $14.4 billion in the first nine months of this year
New CEO Abel is more willing to spend money than Buffett
I think this earnings report punishes not the business, but insurance pricing: railroads and energy are making money, only GEICO is losing money to gain market share, observe but don't chase
The critical point is if next quarter GEICO's underwriting profit continues to fall below $900 million, or cash starts to only increase without spending

#美股暴跌后科技股反弹，纳指周线仍跌约3.4% CORE fell back to 0.012, is the BTCFi narrative completely broken? Or is it the darkness before dawn?
Key conclusion: It is not the BTCFi sector narrative that has collapsed, but CORE itself is being cleared out from the sector. The underlying demand of BTCFi to "unlock Bitcoin liquidity and provide staking yields for BTC" still holds. Competitors like Babylon continue to secure large amounts of funds for staking, so the sector logic has not disappeared.
CORE returning to around 0.012 is rooted in multiple internal contradictions erupting simultaneously: the governance trust fracture caused by the b14g coin theft incident, the countdown to Bithumb delisting, the continuous token inflation lasting 81 years, and extremely thin market liquidity. What the market fears is not BTC staking itself, but the uncertainty brought by the project team's ability to intervene in the ledger, vague compensation plans, and the long-term failure of the buyback narrative.
So, is this the darkness before dawn? Current evidence does not support this judgment. True bottom characteristics require the implementation of compensation plans, on-chain TVL recovery, and sustained growth in trading volume—these stabilizing signals are all absent so far. The current low price is more a valuation crash caused by liquidity exhaustion, not a golden bottom formed after sufficient chip consolidation.
Two possible future directions: if governance and security issues remain unresolved, CORE will continue to be abandoned by capital; if historical vulnerabilities can be properly addressed and community trust rebuilt, there may be a chance for a recovery window. Before substantial positive developments occur, rash bottom-fishing carries extremely high risk.The heaviest safe in the kitchen cold storage was pried open—25.7 tons of physical gold bars stacked in three layers, pressing the iron plate until it creaked, 59% more than at the beginning of the year, with a market value of 3.44 billion USD. This is not a seasonal dish the head chef added on a whim; someone has bought out the entire upstream supply chain.
At the same time, procurement managers across the city are scrambling for the same ingredient: central banks worldwide net bought 321 tons in Q3, 42% more year-on-year; gold funds also added 211 tons on their trays. The heat on the stove changed accordingly—the spot gold price stood back above $4,000 on November 4th. That recent pullback was just the two-minute rest when flipping a steak, letting the blood settle before returning to the pan to release the juice.
I've always said, an investment portfolio is like a banquet table. Mainstream coins are the main course, filling you up; altcoins are the seasoning, a pinch to enhance aroma, half a spoonful can cause a mishap; leveraged contracts are the super spicy chili, a few drops are exhilarating, but half a bottle will burn your intestines. Physical gold is the clear broth—six-hour slow-cooked old hen stock, slow and bland, but with a rich base that can hold the spoon. Anyone who sprinkles chili into the clear broth is ruining the reputation.
So what is tokenized gold? It's putting the broth into vacuum-sealed meal packs, ready to use anytime, quick to serve. The only question is: whose cold chain and whose expiration date. 25.7 tons sounds impressive, but compared to the central banks' 321 tons, it's just a cold appetizer on the banquet table; the main pot is still on their stove. To get more diners to pick up their chopsticks, it depends not on the plating but on whether the cold storage door dares to open—the redemption channel is the cold chain temperature; reserve audit transparency is the expiration label. A two-degree temperature difference can sour the whole pot.
As for those tokenized assets in the US stock market, they are pre-made dishes from the central kitchen: neatly presented, heated for three minutes before serving, but the cooking is controlled by someone else's stove—you can't even adjust the saltiness. When the gold price pot boils, linkage is inevitable, but the oil slick on the surface never represents the concentration at the bottom of the pot.
The broth is rich, the fire is strong, but I only recognize one rule—the oil slick, no matter how thick, cannot replace me sticking my spoon to the bottom of the pot. #xautgoldreservesup59%$TSLA Someone organized protests against Musk, but the stock price actually rose
This morning's news, FOX News reported that there are organized protests against Musk in the US. Behind it are three well-known nonprofit organizations: VOCAL-TX, Center for Popular Democracy, People's Action. They previously ran Tesla Takedown, with total revenue of $56.1 million in 2024, so money is not an issue.
Normally, this kind of news should crash the market. But looking at the market: both Tesla and $SPCX are rising.
Why? Because the market clearly distinguishes.
Street protests do not affect earnings reports. How many cars Tesla sells and how many contracts SpaceX signs depend on products and orders, not the number of people holding signs on the street. This is different from the Democrats controlling Congress—that can change rules and hold hearings. The real risk to worry about is regulatory actions after the new Congress takes office in January next year, not today's protest.
So Beichen's judgment: this news is emotional noise, not a trading signal. But one thing to watch: if the protest escalates to boycotting products and affecting sales, then the nature changes. The current information does not show this step yet.
In terms of operation, Tesla at 361, short-term follows the market, do not pay attention to this news. If you really want to act, wait until it falls below 353 to reconsider!
#RocketLab财报前瞻：Neutron火箭进展如何？ CORE experienced a flash dip to 0.0117 in the early morning, a movement more thrilling than a roller coaster!
In the early hours, CORE underwent an extreme flash dip, plunging instantly to around 0.0117, then slightly rebounding. The intense volatility left holders on edge. This rapid plunge was not triggered by sudden negative news; the core reason lies in the market's extremely thin liquidity. The current 24-hour trading volume is just over one million USD, with very shallow order books. Even a relatively small sell order can quickly break through multiple price levels, triggering numerous stop-loss orders and further amplifying the volatility.
Multiple negative factors continue to suppress the market: the trust crisis left by the b14g coin theft incident remains unresolved, the countdown to Bithumb's delisting keeps pressuring the market, and the 81-year token release cycle brings long-term inflationary pressure. Active buying interest in the market is very scarce. Even after the flash dip, the slight rebound is merely a passive technical correction, not a signal of capital entering to establish a bottom.
Many see the deep drop and want to bottom-fish for a rebound, but caution is needed: flash dips in a liquidity-starved environment often indicate a continuation of the downtrend, not the arrival of a bottom. Until compensation plans are implemented, on-chain activity warms up, and trading volume significantly recovers, this roller coaster-like intense volatility is likely to repeat, carrying very high risk. Under the shadowless lamp, before the monitor shows a long straight line, what often drops first is not blood pressure but myocardial perfusion. The ASTS Q3 post-earnings call is not about listening to management recite numbers; it's like an open-chest exploration: the Bluebird satellite is like an artificial valve, the direct terminal connection like collateral circulation, the partner operators like donor vessel anastomoses, commercial revenue is cardiac output, and cash burn is the bleeding rate. The $XCH correlation is not the primary disease but ectopic arrhythmia; the price crash is just premature ventricular contractions on the ECG, the real judgment is whether ASTS's cash flow perfusion pressure and commercialization anastomosis are leaking.
The number of satellites launched is like myocardial thickness—looks good but doesn't equal pumping function; partner signings are like vascular anastomoses, the key is distal perfusion; revenue growth is like stroke volume, which must be viewed alongside bleeding rate. If cash burn outpaces revenue ramp-up, it's like ongoing intraoperative bleeding with insufficient fluid replacement; if cooperation progress remains only at the intention stage, it's like a patent bridge vessel angiogram but no distal blood flow. The call must focus on three things: whether commercial revenue forms stable forward flow, whether partners convert into actual connections, and how many cardiac cycles the cash balance can sustain. The $XCH market correlation is like electrolyte disorder-induced arrhythmia, which cannot be masked by electrical cardioversion; first do a transesophageal echo to check structure, then hemodynamics to assess perfusion, and only then discuss whether the rhythm looks good. My professional judgment: first look at perfusion, then rhythm; if perfusion pressure continues to drop, no matter how beautiful the satellite network is, it's just ventricular tachycardia—there is rhythm, but no cardiac output. #astsq3commercialoutlook The reason $PEPE is currently so strong, besides the ETF expectations, is also due to the Binance hacker incident where a large amount of PEPE was stolen and sold from the mentioned wallet. Binance has not yet fully bought it back from the secondary market, so the short-term buying pressure remains. Once Binance opens PEPE withdrawals, the buying pressure will disappear, and $PEPE is likely to experience a correction 📉Is the US CPI going to stir things up again tomorrow night?
This time it's not just an ordinary data release. On November 6, US nonfarm payrolls increased by 165,000, far exceeding expectations, and the market's bet on a December rate hike once surged close to 80%.
What's more troublesome is oil prices. The Middle East situation is volatile, and energy costs remain high. In September, the US CPI year-on-year rose to 3.7%, and the market expects it to further increase to 3.9% in October.
In short, what everyone fears is not that inflation hasn't dropped, but that the Federal Reserve will continue tightening.
This kind of scenario is very familiar historically!
In November 2022, CPI dropped to 7.7%, and BTC rose about 6.5% within an hour after the announcement.
In May 2024, inflation cooled down, and BTC rebounded about 2.6% within an hour.
But on October 14 this year, it was a disaster: CPI year-on-year was 3.7%, 0.1 percentage points higher than expected, BTC fell about 1.4% within an hour after the announcement, and US Treasury yields also surged.
So what will happen tomorrow night?
If the data is below expectations, $BTC has a chance to rebound, first watching if 76,000 can be firmly retaken, then considering 78,000.
But if inflation continues to exceed expectations, be cautious at 74,000; if it breaks below and the rebound fails to hold, don't rush to bottom fish.
Also, on Friday there is the US PPI; inflation news is not just a one-time event.
Tomorrow night at 21:30, do you think BTC will counterattack with the CPI, or test the bottom again? #美国10月CPI前瞻：12月加息预期会否改变？ $ONE, $MET, and $ZEC all experienced slight synchronized pullbacks, but the underlying position logic is completely different. Compared to the surface price movements, this divergence is more worth noting. There is still some time before settlement, and the divergence between capital and positions may trigger greater volatility. ONE ($ONE) is the most obvious target where bearish forces are weakening; the four-hour funding rate is deeply negative, the price has slightly dropped, and open interest has fallen, indicating many shorts are exiting and not continuing to add bearish bets. The cost-effectiveness of chasing the decline has decreased, and the short crowding has eased somewhat. MET ($MET) is the exact opposite: despite a slight price drop, open interest is rising as shorts continue to add positions during the decline, making the position increasingly crowded. Once the market reverses, the concentrated shorts are very likely to trigger a chain liquidation, making it the most vulnerable among the three. ZEC ($ZEC) shows another kind of imbalance: the eight-hour funding rate remains positive, price has pulled back, and open interest has slightly decreased. Bulls are gradually exiting, but the bullish premium has not been fully absorbed yet, so there is still liquidation pressure in the short term, although leverage levels are quietly decreasing. Simply put, a price drop does not necessarily mean a purely bearish signal. ONE ($ONE) sees shorts retreating, weakening downward momentum; MET ($MET) has new shorts adding positions, bringing squeeze risk; ZEC ($ZEC) still has residual bullish premium that hides potential risks. Going forward, two directions can be closely observed: whether the crowded shorts in MET ($MET) will face a squeeze, or whether the remaining bullish premium in ZEC ($ZEC) will ultimately be released ETH dropped to 2230, who is selling this time?
ETH fell from 2437 to around 2220, dropping over 7% in 24 hours, with more than 1 billion liquidated across the network, and bulls accounting for nearly 90%. The trigger was AI regulation panic after the midterm elections; the Nasdaq dropped 5.5%, tech stocks plunged and the impact spread, even BTC's 50-week moving average was briefly breached.
But what really pushed ETH down wasn't the news, it was a leveraged long liquidation. The previous rebound was supported by short covering, with open interest barely increasing; once the direction reversed, the chain liquidation directly smashed the price down.
The ETF didn't help either. The ETH spot ETF has seen outflows for six consecutive weeks, with a net outflow of 365 million in a single week, totaling about 2 billion withdrawn since late September.
On-chain tells a different story: 45.2 million tokens staked, accounting for over 30% of circulation; 1.37 million queued to enter with a 24-day wait, while 13,000 tokens exit within a day. ETFs take money and leave, while on-chain locks the coins; two groups telling two different stories.
So, can you buy the dip? 2219 is the 0.618 retracement level, 2200 is a psychological barrier; holding these levels offers some breathing room. The key to a rebound lies between 2315 and 2350, where previous attempts stalled. If 2134 breaks again, over 600 million in long liquidations await.
I'm not guessing the bottom at this point. Either wait for a recovery above 2350 or wait to see if it really drops near 2134; reaching out in between might just catch the next liquidation line.
Just my personal random thoughts, not investment advice. $PONS Overall bearish trend, continue holding. The only regret is buying too little.
OKX Long-Short Ratio:
Retail Long-Short Ratio: 1.71 (bullish). Bullish sentiment remains crowded.
Whale Count Long-Short Ratio: 1.03 (neutral).
Whale Position Long-Short Ratio: 0.84 (bearish)! Main force tendency: neutral.
Conclusion: This is the most classic "false neutral" bull trap structure on the market. The count of 1.03 is a facade; the real capital positions directly dropped to 0.84 (below 1, short funds are nearly 1.2 times the longs).
Buyback budget plummeted from 18.7 million to 2 million (a 90% decrease), fee income collapsed by 87.8%, buyback "fuel" is almost exhausted, a giant whale liquidated $3.67 million, and DeFi researchers publicly warn of bottom-fishing risks.
$BTC $ETH #美国10月CPI前瞻：12月加息预期会否改变？ CORE has dropped below 0.012. Are you cutting losses or buying the dip?
One-sentence view: Heavy buying at the bottom is not recommended, nor is mindless instant cutting of losses. Prioritize reducing positions on rebounds and wait and see.
The current core pain points have not eased at all: the trust gap left by the b14g coin theft, the countdown to Bithumb delisting, persistent inflation lasting 81 years, extremely thin market liquidity where tens of thousands of dollars in orders can cause sharp spikes. Daily trading volume is only a little over one million, with seriously insufficient buying power, making it easy to fall into a negative cycle of "the more it falls, the more is sold."
👉 For those with no positions: Don't try to catch a falling knife on the left side.
The price looks low now, but it is a "low price under liquidity exhaustion," not the bottom. To enter safely, at least observe: price stabilizing above the 0.0128 resistance level, a clear rebound in trading volume, and substantial positive fundamentals. Consider entering only when all three signals appear.
👉 For those already holding positions: Two approaches
1. Heavy positions, can't withstand volatility: Don't panic sell at the lowest point during deep drops. You can reduce positions in batches during short-term small rebounds to lower risk exposure;
2. Very small positions for trial and error: Set strict stop-loss. Exit immediately if it falls below the previous low of 0.0117. Avoid long-term speculation.
Many are tempted by "it has fallen a lot," but a big drop ≠ the bottom. As long as the trust crisis and liquidity shrinkage—the two core contradictions—are unresolved, new lows can be made at any time.This is the key reason why ETH's decline is deeper than BTC's.
After hackers steal large amounts of assets, stablecoins (USDT/USDC) can be urgently frozen by the issuers, but ETH cannot be frozen. Therefore, hackers prioritize converting stablecoins into ETH and gradually selling them off on decentralized exchanges (DEX), creating continuous and targeted selling pressure on ETH.
$ETH Additionally, hackers still hold approximately 467,000 to 525,000 ETH (worth over $1 billion), which constitutes a huge potential oversupply, continuously suppressing market sentiment.#Tether旗下XAUT黄金储备增长59%
Data disclosed on November 6 shows that as of the end of September, approximately 25.7 tons of physical gold support XAUT, a 59% increase compared to the end of last year, with the reserve market value hitting a record $3.44 billion. Note, this is different from the 142.8 tons of gold Tether holds as reserves for USDT—which actually decreased by 3.4 tons in Q3. The growth of XAUT is independent and specifically serves the real demand for tokenized gold products.
The driving force comes from macro hedging: central banks continue to buy gold, interest rate expectations fluctuate, and geopolitical risks rise, making capital willing to hold gold at low cost through on-chain tokens. XAUT supports 7×24 trading, on-chain transfers, and staking, with a lower threshold than gold ETFs, attracting crypto-native funds and some small overseas institutions.
But boundaries must be clear. The scale of XAUT is still very small compared to the gold ETF market and is insufficient to dominate gold prices in the short term, mostly following actual interest rate fluctuations; redemption, custody, and local regulation remain uncertain. This is a hallmark incremental growth in the RWA sector, not a short-term pump signal. $BTC $ETH $SOL Just saw "Gas pricing separation," and instinctively thought it was news about saving fees, but after reading, I realized I had the wrong focus 😂 After being in the circle for a year, I still tend to translate technical updates as "whether it's cheap to use."
The Ethereum community submitted an early draft of EIP-8488, proposing parallel V2 opcodes charged according to the new standards of EIP-8037 and EIP-8038. The draft stipulates that after network activation, newly deployed contracts can only include V2 opcodes, existing contracts will continue using the old Gas plan, and V2 cross-contract calls must target V2.
My understanding is that this is more like a collaboration problem developers need to reconsider, not a user fee reduction notice. The old contracts retaining the old pricing means no need to change rules together; but who the new contracts call will be version-restricted. If developers want new V2 contracts to call existing old contracts, they will need to consider adaptation solutions, which is my speculation. So I think its impact on how applications compose is more important than "changing the charging standard."
What I haven't figured out yet is: when an application depends on many old contracts, how to arrange migration without making collaboration too complicated. The material also doesn't provide fee changes, so it can't be directly concluded that Gas is cheaper. What I want to look at next are specific call cases, to first understand the restrictions, then judge how the experience will change. ETH is down 4.71% in 24 hours versus BTC's 1.28% decline. That gap suggests risk is being shed more aggressively outside BTC, a pattern worth watching if macro headlines prolong it. With IranBlockadeExpands trending, the concern is a broader liquidity premium, though one session cannot confirm a regime shift.
Not financial advice.Don't directly apply Anthropic's financing valuation to TAO or FET
The IPO valuation is the company's equity pricing, while the token price is influenced by liquidity, supply and demand, and tokenomics; they cannot be simply equated.
$TAO is about $222.44, down 1.17% in 24 hours; 24-hour trading volume is about $40.7 million. Trading activity is decent, but the price is still falling, indicating that attention does not equal buying dominance.
$FET is currently around $0.144, down 2.06% in 24 hours; more noteworthy is the 24-hour trading volume of about $2.03 million. The trading scale is significantly smaller than mainstream AI tokens, so liquidity and slippage risks deserve more attention; don't just look at thematic labels.
TAO is about $222, down about 1.17% in 24 hours; FET is about $0.144, down about 2.06%, both need their own demand evidence.
What really matters to compare is the position in the industry chain, not dividing the company valuation by the number of tokens. Do you think this is the most common mistake the market makes?

Last Friday's nonfarm payroll data far exceeded expectations, triggering a sharp plunge. Normally, the market would likely rebound over the weekend to repair the drop, but unexpectedly, after two days of sideways movement, there was another sharp drop of nearly 8% around 5 a.m. Monday. Clearly, the long-term bulls, including Brother Huang, were liquidated again.
The market reason is that the 2180-2150 price range concentrated multiple large holders' liquidation trigger points. Besides Huang Licheng, there was a whale holding 93,174 ETH, worth about $214 million at market price.
On the news front, after the US elections concluded, the Democrats swept both chambers, leading to tighter crypto regulations, continuous withdrawal of institutional funds, and ongoing outflows from spot ETFs.
Geopolitically, negotiations between the US and Iran have not gone smoothly and remain divided. There was an attack reported on a cruise ship in the Strait of Hormuz. Although a temporary easing signal was sent, the situation remains tense.
Before a bull market, multiple shakeouts are common knowledge among old crypto traders. This is not a sign of a market problem but rather overcrowded leverage, concentrated chips, and absence of institutional buying.
In the next article, I will analyze how to view the follow-up.

#ASTS推进手机直连卫星服务，商业化进展待披露
#美国10月CPI前瞻：12月加息预期会否改变？ Recently, there's a rather contradictory phenomenon: the better the employment data, the worse it feels for the crypto world.
In the US, October added 165,000 non-farm jobs, while the expectation was only 65,000; the unemployment rate dropped to 4.1%, and wages also increased. It all sounds like good news, but the probability of a rate hike in December surged to 80%.
Shouldn't the economy getting better mean prices go up? In the crypto world, this logic often reverses. When the economy is too strong, the Fed refuses to ease, $BTC first stalls, $ETH follows with a shake, and $SOL is an even bigger version.
Don't be happy just because of "strong employment." The real verdict will be the CPI on November 10.Negative news keeps coming one after another, so where is the bottom? The Democrats just took control of Congress, and their first move is aimed at the crypto world!
On November 9, the Democrats sent letters to four entities: Binance, Tether, the WLFI project team, and the issuer of the TRUMP coin, demanding voluntary submission of investigation records by January 4, 2027!
First, the November 6 non-farm payroll report shocked the market: 165,000 new jobs added, more than double the expected 65,000! The unemployment rate dropped to 4.1%, and average hourly earnings rose 0.4% month-over-month and 3.1% year-over-year, all exceeding expectations. With data this strong, traders immediately reversed their bets, switching from expecting rate cuts to betting on a rate hike in December.
Today, Blumenauer’s deadly letter directly named Binance, Tether, World Liberty Financial, and the TRUMP coin issuer. The deadline for materials is January 4, 2027; the new Congress is sworn in on January 3, so the deadline is exactly the next day. Once he becomes chair of the investigative committee and gains subpoena power, that day marks the start of the countdown.
$BTC support is at 73,000; if it breaks, look for 70,000. Resistance is in the 78,000–80,000 range; if it can’t hold above that, it will continue to fall.
The real bottom depends on three things: cleaning out long leverage, institutional inflows from ETF approval, and a dovish turn at the December FOMC meeting. The bottom quietly forms when the criticism is at its loudest. #美国10月CPI前瞻：12月加息预期会否改变？ The US added 165,000 non-farm jobs in October, while the market had originally expected only 65,000. This single figure completely overturns the narrative of a "cooling labor market" over the past two months.
More crucial than the new additions is the revision: August and September combined were revised up by 84,000. This means the previous weakness was recognized as a misinterpretation. The unemployment rate fell back to 4.1%, average hourly earnings rose 0.4% month-over-month and 3.1% year-over-year, with employment and wages strengthening simultaneously—this is the least desired combination from an inflation perspective.
The market reaction was very direct: the probability of a 25 basis point rate hike in December was pushed to about 80%. A week ago, rate cuts were being discussed; now rate hikes are on the table. This sharp reversal in expectations can impact the market even more than the data itself.
The mechanism is clear. As rate hike expectations rise, real interest rates follow, putting downward pressure on valuations of cash-flow-negative assets like $BTC; $ETH, due to on-chain leverage and staking structures, is more dependent on liquidity, amplifying volatility; $SOL, a high-beta asset, often acts as a double-edged sword during expectation adjustments.
Wages growing 3.1% year-over-year and an increase of 339,000 in people forced to work part-time indicate surface tightness but underlying looseness, which may prevent the Federal Reserve from maintaining a fully hawkish stance.
The real focus should be on the CPI on November 10. Non-farm payrolls are "possibly still important," but CPI is "ultimately decisive."Opening a perpetual contract by only considering direction and leverage is not enough. The funding rate, this hidden cost, often only comes to people's attention when their account balance is reduced. It is not a fee; it is the rent for holding a position. Most contracts on OKX settle every 8 hours: a positive rate means longs pay shorts, and a negative rate is the opposite. As long as you hold a position, you keep paying or receiving it. Fees are charged once when opening and once when closing, but funding fees occur three times a day, so holding for three days means nine times. Rough calculation: a single funding fee is 0.01%, daily 0.03%, about 10.9% annually. If your direction is correct by 2% and you hold for five days, the funding fee alone can eat up 0.15%, plus two fees, so your net gain is reduced. The higher the leverage, the more obvious this is—it is calculated based on the notional value, not your margin. Three pitfalls: only looking at unrealized P&L on the position page (which does not include deducted funding fees); opening positions chasing the rate before and after settlement; treating negative funding rates as a free lunch (which often coincides with higher volatility). Take ten seconds before opening a position to check the current funding rate and next settlement time. If you plan to hold for more than a day, consider it together with fees in the same category. Invisible costs are the most expensive. The above is personal understanding and does not constitute investment advice. Contracts have leverage, and losses may exceed the principal.Core Trader 37 opened a long position on $HYPE with 10x leverage, with a nominal position of about $36,100. Many people might directly interpret this as: this wallet is very confident in a bullish outlook.
On the other hand, I don't consider leverage as confidence. First, nominal position does not equal invested principal; second, roughly calculated at 10x, a reverse movement of about 10% could wipe out the initial margin, and the actual risk is also affected by the margin model. I look at the risk first and do not take this trade as a directional signal.🚨 A warning signal: USDT market cap is continuously shrinking, showing a trend somewhat similar to 2018.
A decline in stablecoin market cap means redemptions exceed new issuances, which does not imply funds are moving into buying $BTC.
What’s more notable is that USDC is experiencing a similar situation, indicating this is not an issue with a single issuer.
This suggests the crypto market may be facing liquidity contraction pressure.
Looking back to 2018, when USDT market cap started to decline, Nvidia’s stock price also began to weaken, followed by BTC dropping.
Now, this similarity is appearing again.
Of course, the current stablecoin redemption scale is still much smaller than in 2018, so we cannot simply conclude that history will repeat itself.
But I believe this is a bearish liquidity signal that cannot be ignored. #英伟达启动独立调查，管理层稳定性受关注

NVIDIA's Jensen Huang scandalized by extramarital affair, directly dragging down the crypto market????
Brothers, this is quite interesting! At 5 a.m. today, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang was exposed for an extramarital affair and admitted in an email to being unfaithful to his wife. As soon as this news broke, the U.S. stock pre-market dropped over 2%. You might think this is just a tech industry issue? Wrong! The crypto world immediately took a nosedive.
The reason is simple: AI and cryptocurrencies are now seen as grasshoppers on the same rope, both high-risk assets. When the leader gets into trouble, confidence falters, and funds naturally pull out.
What's even more critical is that Bitcoin has been like a soft target. Since November 8, many big players have been aggressively shorting Bitcoin, with short positions hitting new highs. The market was already primed for a drop. At this moment, Jensen Huang's scandal acted like a divine assist, giving these shorts a perfect excuse to crash the market, triggering a stampede-style sell-off.
So, it's not just a private matter that can tank the market; the key is that the market was already fragile to begin with. BTC holding above 75,000 is just the beginning! The real danger signals have been overlooked by many
The crypto market is experiencing a contraction in risk appetite. On November 6, BTC hit a low of $74,780, with ETH simultaneously approaching $2,200. In the past 24 hours, about $1.05 billion worth of liquidations occurred across the network, with long positions accounting for about 88%, indicating that this round of decline is not only due to spot selling but also concentrated leverage clearing.
More worrisome is the capital side. The US spot BTC ETF saw a net outflow of about $412 million on the same day (some fund data is still incomplete), marking two consecutive days of net outflows. Meanwhile, returns on AI infrastructure investments and expectations of data center regulation triggered a sell-off in tech stocks, causing a clear correlation between the Nasdaq and crypto assets.
ETH faces dual pressure: on November 6, the spot ETH ETF had a net outflow close to $100 million, coupled with the delay in the Glamsterdam upgrade test, putting short-term market confidence under pressure.
My judgment: key levels to watch are $75,000 for BTC and $2,200 for ETH. Holding support only indicates temporary relief in selling pressure; the real reversal signal should be ETF capital inflows, strengthened spot buying, and price reclaiming key resistance. Until the capital returns, rebounds should still be approached with caution. #DailyOrbit $GRAM gram is basically as I said before, sooner or later it will become a $1 stablecoin. I don't have high hopes for a short-term rebound, but the US stock market will most likely rebound tonight, and the crypto market might also see a bounce. gram could probably rebound to around 1.1? But overall, I tend to think it will move in a weak, oscillating pattern afterward.
Currently, gram has fallen more than the overall market. When Bitcoin was at 58,000, gram was at 1.2; now Bitcoin is at 76,000 and gram is only at 1 dollar.
At the same time, there is clearly a crowded long position, and going long with a long-to-short ratio of thousands to one is still quite risky.
On the other hand, this market cap is small, with daily contract leverage liquidity only in the hundreds of thousands to a few million USDT. Despite several days of continuous decline, capital inflow has actually been positive for several days, which also shows firm buying.
Technically, you can say good or bad depending on how you interpret it. If there is no small player manipulating the market, the probability of a rebound is not low. But if there is a market maker entering and seeing such a small market cap with such a high long-to-short ratio, it's hard to say.🔍40x long position, my doubt is: why is the margin for error squeezed so tightly? This $BTC long position from Core Trader 14 has a size of 2.5 coins, with a notional value of about $186,900. Don't rush to conclusions; the position amount is less concerning than the leverage choice.
An interesting detail here: roughly calculated at 40x, a reverse fluctuation of about 2.5% is enough to consume an amount equivalent to the initial margin; this is not the exact liquidation line, as the actual one is affected by the margin mode and maintenance margin requirements. My speculation is: this position is more like a directional bet aiming for quick realization, rather than patiently waiting for the trend, because high leverage makes adverse fluctuations during the wait costly.
I will continue to watch whether it actively reduces the position or adds margin next. Both are bullish views; the former cuts risk, the latter extends the time under pressure. The subsequent actions will be the clues to verify this speculation.Last night, positions of 140,000 people were forcibly liquidated.
In one day, $856 million.
Ninety percent of them were betting on a rise.
Bitcoin dropped to 73,708, Ethereum to 2,100, both the lowest since August.
Many people didn’t lose because of wrong judgment, but because they didn’t have money to cover.
First, let’s clarify what liquidation means.
You borrow money from the platform to bet on a rise; if the price falls past a certain line, the platform doesn’t care if you’re optimistic or not, it sells for you directly.
What it sells is your position, and you lose your principal.
When one person is sold out, the price drops a bit.
As the price drops, the next person gets sold out.
The real pressure isn’t here.
75,700 is the average cost of this recent batch of buyers.
The price has already fallen below that.
People who entered in the past few months are all at a loss now.
Those losing don’t necessarily sell immediately.
But if it falls further, many will sell.
In the same week, U.S. Bitcoin funds withdrew $1.28 billion.
On Friday alone, $410 million.
BlackRock alone withdrew $400 million.
Retail investors are being liquidated, institutions are reducing positions, both happening simultaneously.
There are three more things outside.
On Thursday, the Nasdaq dropped 5.5%.
The midterm election results came out, adding more uncertainty to crypto legislation.
And that $6 billion theft still hasn’t been fully digested.
Four things collided on the same weekend.
Support broke. Institutions left. Buyers didn’t step in. There are still leaks outside.
Not a single piece of good news.
A 10% drop won’t bankrupt people.
Leverage will. $ONDO
Tokenized real-world assets are bringing traditional financial instruments into blockchain environments, and Ondo operates in this developing sector. The opportunity is significant, but so are the challenges surrounding regulation, asset custody, transparency, and accessibility. RWA growth should not automatically be confused with ONDO token demand. Understanding that distinction is essential when evaluating the project's fundamentals.Fear index at 28, could geopolitical news be the last straw?
The crypto fear index is only 28 today, the market is already not optimistic, and external risks tend to amplify volatility.
$BTC is currently around $75,810, down 0.25% in 24 hours; more notably, OI is up 2.0% in 24h, funding rate +0.0072%/8h (CoinGecko perpetual summary). Contract participation is rising, but the funding rate is mildly positive, indicating bulls are present but it’s not yet extremely crowded.
$XRP is around $1.16, down 0.13% in 24 hours. OI down 3.6% in 24h, funding rate +0.0054%/8h (CoinGecko perpetual summary). This data seems to remind us: price is near flat but positions are decreasing, the market is still adjusting direction, and a positive funding rate should not be interpreted as confirmed buying pressure.
BTC price is slightly stable with increasing OI; XRP price is relatively strong but OI is declining, so there is currently no consistent sign of risk-hedging buying.
If sentiment continues to worsen, first watch if volume and liquidations expand simultaneously. How much risk do you think the market has already priced in?
#美军扩大对伊朗封锁，霍尔木兹重开仍存分歧 #美国10月非农超预期，12月加息押注升温 #美股暴跌后科技股反弹，纳指周线仍跌约3.4% 78000 and 2300: Prices are holding, but funds are retreating
78000 and 2300 are like two gates being repeatedly tested. Prices stubbornly hold at these two levels, yet funds are withdrawing, which is the most conflicted aspect of the current crypto market.
Looking at the macro picture: the midterm election voting day coincides with the non-farm payroll release, sharply increasing uncertainty; BTC options implied volatility has surged to 43.5%, with large funds busy buying protection.
On the BTC side, there are plenty of bearish factors: Binance hack, ETF net outflows exceeding $600 million in a single day, and cooling rate cut expectations. In the past, these would have triggered a sharp drop, but this time not even a 3% decline was given, the gap remains unfilled, and the resistance level exceeded expectations. However, the rebound momentum is questionable—it looks more like short covering rather than new funds entering. Above, between 78556 and 78836 lies the densest cluster of 100x long positions in the entire market; once the price touches this range, it could trigger a chain sell-off.
ETH barely returned to 2300, but the spot ETF has seen net outflows for more than twenty consecutive trading days, with BlackRock withdrawing $138 million in a single day. Regaining the round number does not equal a trend reversal; 2350–2370 remains a dense resistance zone where previous rebounds failed multiple times.
Ultimately, 78000 and 2300 are psychological stop-loss levels for bulls and bears respectively; whoever loses them first will surrender their chips. Until the direction is clear, whether to chase or not is a test of patience. #DailyOrbit 16.5 million tokens have been sold, but what concerns me more is the cost of this financing: operating funds were secured, yet the selling pace was handed over to the partners. The team claims they did not sell tokens directly, but OTC had no restrictions, and no consensus was reached in communication.
I believe this clarification is still insufficient to improve the risk-reward ratio. My speculation is that this exchange is only worthwhile if the new demand brought by the funds can cover the selling pressure; otherwise, even discussing odds might overestimate expectations. When evaluating Delta, do people value the probability of demand realization more, or the potential return odds?$ETH Morning Analysis
ETH was influenced early this morning by the controversy surrounding Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, which became the trigger for the market, causing a wave of liquidity liquidation and the price briefly breaking below 2080. Going forward, pay close attention to this level; if it breaks again, the risk needs to be highly cautioned.
In the short term, observe two key defense levels: whether BTC can hold above 75000 and whether ETH can maintain the 2150 line. In trading, be sure to control position sizes and avoid being aggressive.
This round of decline has already cleared liquidity below, which is a positive signal, but market divergence is still insufficient. True rallies often occur when market sentiment is uniformly pessimistic and everyone wants to short at the slightest pullback; the market is gradually approaching this state now.
Combining this with on-chain data review: historically, four times when short-term holders' costs exceeded long-term holders' costs, a bull market recovery peak emerged about a month later. The current indicator has just completed this crossover, and based on this pattern, I remain optimistic for the next month!
