$BTC was tested 4 times this week at 80K, dipped to 79,775 last night and then pulled back to 82.4K, with clear buying support below. But after the dip, each high point is lower than the last, volume shrank to a quarter, and the price is squeezed within a triangle between 81.7K and 82.6K, so it can't be called a bottom yet. I'm waiting for two signals: a 4-hour volume breakout above 82,600, plus Coinbase premium stabilizing in positive territory (currently +0.008%, just turned positive). Once confirmed, watch for 84K; if the 4-hour closes below 79,700, it fails. Warsh gave no rate signal today, the probability of a rate hike in October dropped to 13.5%, Brent returned to 102, so macro conditions are somewhat relieved. #ETF与巨鲸资金分化，BTC能否守住8万美元？ Today, Tesla's new Roadster completely electrified the atmosphere on site, going from 0-60 in just 0.81 seconds, and it even features SpaceX's cold gas thrusters—flying, driving backwards, flipping over the fleet's lead car. After watching, it feels like "this car is no longer just a car." The market's imagination about Tesla has been reignited once again. However, my own confidence in the OKX Prophet S3 betting "earnings beat YES" doesn't really come from this flying sports car, but more from the operational numbers already released this quarter. Many were worried about slowing demand before, but this set of numbers directly quashes that notion. At least this quarter, the automotive fundamentals haven't continued to decline; instead, they've stabilized. The energy business is even more interesting. Looking further ahead, the mass production path for Robotaxi and Cybercab is becoming clearer. Over 300 Cybercabs are already running in Austin, and expectations for software subscription and autonomous driving-related revenue boosting profit margins are heating up. These factors aren't fully reflected in the financial reports yet, but the sense of direction is much stronger than before. My current forecast position is about 185XP, with returns steadily climbing. The Roadster is indeed flashy, but what truly makes me willing to hold this position is these already realized numbers. #OKX US Earnings Season #Tesla Launches New Generation Roadster, Market Rises #特斯拉发布新一代Roadster，行情走高 Every time Tesla holds a launch event, the stock market gains a new batch of "spiritual shareholders." 🏎️ The new generation Roadster debuts, and the market follows with a rise. Everyone knows this script: a flashy PPT, impressive specs, faith recharged, and buying surges as a salute. But seasoned investors understand one truth—the launch event is fireworks, the financial report is the daily bread. To be clear: the Roadster is not a volume car; it’s a totem. A million-dollar supercar with inevitably limited production, its revenue contribution is roughly decorative. But it serves three real purposes: first, a brand ceiling, showing the world that electric cars can beat supercars; second, a technology billboard, where new batteries and motors flex first before rolling out to volume models; third, a valuation catalyst, giving the market the imagination that "Tesla is more than just a car company." The first two are solid assets; the third is the fuel for the stock price spike on launch day. The problem is, imagination comes fast and goes fast. But the hype from the launch event usually lasts just three days, after which the stock price obediently returns to focus on delivery volume, gross margin, and FSD progress. The 0-60 acceleration on the PPT won’t appear in the financial report, but production schedule delays are common. Remember how many Cybertruck orders there were, with deliveries repeatedly postponed? That’s how market patience wears out. The car is a good car, no doubt. But remember: a good car doesn’t necessarily mean a good stock, especially if you bought in at the top. The launch event is for dreaming; the market is for testing dreams. Your position size determines whether you’re a spectator or a bet. 🎪It's evening now, and the market is much calmer than this morning. After last night's PPI spike, the day was all about recovery, but don't be fooled by this rebound; the structure hasn't been fixed. First, let's talk about $BTC. Current price is 82240, with last night's low at 79725. The price has recovered, but open interest dropped from 2.58 billion to 2.45 billion, and the long-short ratio fell from 1.88 to 1.63. The funding rate is hovering around zero, and no one is willing to pay. What does this mean? Shorts are covering to push the price up, not new longs entering. There's heavy resistance between 83000-84000; don't chase without volume. $ETH is stronger than BTC, currently at 2457, up 3.57%. The long-short ratio dropped from 2.73 to 1.95, and a lot of leverage has been cleared, which is good. The 4-hour MACD shows a golden cross below zero, indicating short-term rebound momentum, but there's a lot of trapped positions above 2500, so chasing longs isn't cost-effective. $SOL is still the one to watch closely, currently at 106.76, with a low of 100.82. The 100 level held. However, the long-short ratio is 2.46, still relatively high. The funding rate fluctuates between positive and negative, indicating crowded longs. There's resistance near 110 on the rebound, and it's hard to break through without volume. Summary: This is a recovery, not a reversal. The bottom lines are BTC 80000, ETH 2400, and SOL 100. Expect consolidation before these break. If broken, it signals a new round of decline. I have no positions and will wait for clearer signals. #US CPI and PPI both exceeded expectations; will there be more rate hikes this year? #BTC spot ETF large inflows turned negative #ETH fluctuates after hitting $2500 AI and semiconductor stocks have lost over $1 trillion in market value in one week. Is this downturn really because they were overbought, or is the AI rally starting to change? The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index has fallen about 12% from its early October peak, declining for seven consecutive trading days. NVIDIA dropped about 5% over two days, with a weekly market cap shrinkage of approximately $291 billion. Interest rate pressure is outweighing AI expectations again. The US September CPI rose 3.7% year-over-year, higher than the expected 3.6%. Interest rates may continue to rise, and high-valuation tech stocks naturally take the first hit. The market is starting to worry about where the money for AI will come from. Financing costs for cloud computing companies like CoreWeave are rising, causing investors to worry about pressure on the funding chain, which ultimately affects GPU and data center orders. Even with strong fundamentals, NVIDIA can hardly completely avoid this risk. Competition in China's memory chip sector is intensifying. Technological progress at CXMT has sparked market concerns about competition and profit margins in memory chips, putting pressure on companies like Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron. This AI rally is shifting from growth speculation to calculating returns. TSMC still reported a record sixth consecutive quarter of profits, indicating that industry demand remains, but good earnings don’t necessarily support the stock price. If US Treasury yields continue to rise, AI stocks may face further valuation pressure. If interest rates stabilize and earnings reports prove that capital expenditures can convert into revenue, this correction will be easier to end. I will focus on monitoring cloud providers’ financing, chip orders, and next round of earnings guidance, and I’m not rushing to bottom-fish. $NVDA $TSM $SKHY Meta has spent hundreds of billions on AI, but can this money be recovered? Pharaoh directly said that Meta's AI gamble has entered the "submission moment." The Q3 earnings report on October 21 is the market's first real test of Zuckerberg's AI strategy. First, let's look at how scary this bill is. Meta's capital expenditure for 2026 is expected to be between $130 billion and $145 billion, nearly double that of 2025. Even more aggressively, Goldman Sachs predicts that capital expenditure will surge to $220 billion in 2027, a 54% year-on-year increase. Free cash flow in Q2 was only $784 million, a 91% plunge year-on-year, hitting a four-year low. But Zuckerberg himself told the truth. He admitted in the earnings call, "I don't think we have a very precise plan, knowing how each product will scale month by month." Hundreds of billions have been poured in, building a lot of underlying computing power and data centers, but whether consumer AI products can become widespread, he "is not confident." So where will the returns come from? Pharaoh breaks it down into two lines. The first line is that the advertising business is already benefiting from AI. Meta's Q2 advertising revenue was $59.3 billion, up 27% year-on-year, contributing 97.6% of revenue. AI-optimized recommendations and ad targeting have kept ad prices rising. This is currently the most tangible return. The second line is that Muse paid subscriptions are just getting started. Muse Wonder costs $20 to $100 per month, and Muse Code developer edition costs $50 to $200.#VanEck Halts Push for Lido Staked Ethereum ETF VanEck's move is quite interesting—they directly withdrew their Lido Staked Ethereum ETF. On October 14th, they filed with the SEC to withdraw the application, saying this product never went live and not a single share was sold; now they’re not pursuing it. They didn’t specify the exact reason, leaving it a mystery. But look at the background: funds have been flowing out of the ETH spot ETF side continuously. On the 14th, there was a net outflow of $130 million, and on the 15th, another $18.3 million left. Someone counted that it’s been ten consecutive days of net outflows, totaling nearly $780 million. With these numbers, institutions are indeed cautious about ETH right now. I have two points. First, the staked ETH ETF route still faces tough regulatory challenges. VanEck’s withdrawal doesn’t necessarily mean others can’t push forward, but at least it shows that at this moment, packaging staking yields into a compliant product for institutions isn’t that easy. Second, the continuous outflow from ETH ETFs indicates institutions are pulling back, and the short-term selling pressure is real. Although ETH’s price rose slightly today, the capital flow doesn’t support a big rally. My view is simple: VanEck’s case is a single product adjustment, so don’t take it as a signal of comprehensive regulatory tightening. But be cautious—if ETH staking compliance keeps getting stuck, institutional funds might continue shifting toward BTC. Don’t rush to buy the dip just because ETH dropped; wait until the capital flow turns positive. What do you think? $ETH $ETH led the entire day, but ETF money only recognizes $BTC $ETH rose 3.5% today, pressing down on BTC all day — but after six hours, it still couldn't break $2,463. ◆ ETH | Cleaned positions, not an emotional victory The aftershock of the PPI wiped out leverage across the board; now the fee rate is only 0.0015%/8h, basically no one is using leverage to chase. This round is a rebound hammered out, not propped up: no one catches the falling knife, and no one can easily smash it down. ◆ BTC | Buying is there, momentum hasn't returned On October 15, spot ETF: BTC net inflow was about $5.06 million, while ETH had a net outflow of about $60.22 million. Money is flowing to BTC for sure, but the price was held below $82,508 all day — buying supported the drop, but couldn't push the rise, and the trapped positions are still overhead. Before close, one conclusion: neither side is done, but both are close to the finish line. If you want to act, wait for a pullback; buy ETH in batches on a pullback to $2,380–$2,410, and catch BTC on a pullback to $81,200–$81,500; if after the US market opens, both $82,508 and $2,463 fail to break, bulls will retreat first, BTC hourly close below $80,000, ETH close below $2,320, then this rebound can be considered as never happened.$APR remained weak in the week leading up to the unlock on October 23, with 0.04551 not yet completed. This unlock is close to half of the current circulation, and holders are likely to reduce positions or hedge in advance during these days, concentrating selling pressure in this window. We backtested events where the unlock volume exceeded 10% of circulation; on average, the 7 days before unlock underperformed the market by about 6%. Both sample periods were negative, with three out of four instances weakening. Today, long positions worth $70,000 were liquidated, while short positions were only $10,000, indicating that the longs who entered first were washed out. Trading volume is extremely thin again, and even a small sell order can cause a 20% price swing. The chart shows lower highs and a bearish moving average alignment, consistent with supply pressure. RSI at 25 is already in the weak zone; oversold conditions before events often remain muted, unable to support a decent rebound. Conditions for a bullish reversal: reclaim and hold above 0.05207 within a week, indicating that the chips have been digested in advance; breaking below 0.04335 signals the next leg down. Backtesting after the unlock day shows no stable direction; this round of weakness is expected to last until the 23rd.#Tesla delivery exceeds expectations, profit recovery becomes the focus. Delivery volume exceeding expectations supports sentiment, but a slight year-on-year decline plus ongoing price wars mean automotive gross margin remains the biggest pressure point; the highlights this quarter are not car sales, but Robotaxi, Optimus humanoid robot, and FSD commercialization progress. The financial report indicates a fundamental stabilization, but short-term profit elasticity is limited, with AI narrative determining stock price elasticity I just slammed a load calculation report on the table—a supertall building whose debt side has already begun to settle while the upper structure is still crazily being built. This is the real structural truth behind CoreWeave's 5.9% rebound candlestick on October 15. It plunged 15.46% yesterday and pulled back 5.9% today. Outsiders watch the spectacle, focusing on the candlestick; we watch the settlement curve. The problem with this building has never been the facade but the foundation. Nvidia's CEO came out saying its financial situation is improving, capital costs are falling, and no extra guarantees are needed—translated into construction terms, this means: the client is confidently saying funds are fine, but the construction permit and acceptance report are not yet on the table. Designers dread such verbal promises because load-bearing walls won’t suddenly hold three more tons just because of a nice word. Deutsche Bank maintains a buy rating, citing long-term contracts and backlog orders. Please note: what are orders? Orders are the building area on the blueprints, letters of intent, the blueprint where concrete hasn’t yet been poured. Over $10 billion in backlog sounds impressive, but to turn that into real cash flow, one action must be completed—compute power delivery. Between blueprint and delivery lie rebar, concrete, construction time, and most critically—financing costs. Now, look at the real structural hidden risk: bond yields exceeding 15% in 2032. What does 15% mean? This is not a loan interest rate; it’s the market tagging this building as a "high-risk dangerous property." The five-year credit default swap spread has soared to nearly 1195 basis points, equivalent to the structural engineer’s red warning zone circled on the blueprint—the foundation perimeter is surrounded by hollowed-out weak soil layers. For a company to expand, it relies on orders to leverage financing, financing to support delivery, and delivery to feed back cash flow, forming a closed stress-bearing system. But when the main artery of external financing is choked by a 15% yield, this loop experiences severe stress concentration. Can orders sustain expansion on their own? Structurally, it’s extremely precarious unless every floor slab can turn into compute power revenue within budget, on time, and in full—fault tolerance is as low as building thin-shell structures in a typhoon zone. What alarms me more is lateral transmission. The AI compute cloud area is the densest CBD in the entire tech new district in recent years. Multiple developers share the same capital artery, the same batch of GPU suppliers, and the same leasing demand. Once a credit crack appears in any core tube, the load will redistribute through shared components to adjacent structures. This is not just a single building issue; it’s a problem that requires redoing the foundation survey for the entire block. The volatility of linked US stock targets is essentially the same earthquake felt differently at various measuring points. Some only see the aftershock rebound five minutes after the quake; I see the fault line still there, unmoved. Truly great projects never rely on star endorsements to hold height. What holds height are the underground piles, the reinforcement ratio, and the grade of every cubic meter of concrete. Now the building’s curtain wall still reflects beautifully; but please go to the underground garage and look at those leaking joints. Fifteen-point bonds, 1195 basis points of default insurance spread—this is not a design flaw, it’s a geological condition. #jensenbackscoreweave The mercury column of the barometer is hovering at 5.2% on the plateau; this is not a calm, clear day, but the eye of a storm. I’ve looked over the Bank of America fund manager survey chart three times—5.9% is the front line, 37% of people have set the scale at 6%, and 19% of the cloud clusters have already started to shift. Translated into our industry jargon: this is not ordinary cooling; the warm high-pressure ridge of the 10-year Treasury is redefining the atmospheric circulation. BlackRock’s pivot is the most interesting. After nearly six years of short positions dominating, they have now exited shorts, increased holdings in short-term debt, and taken a neutral stance on U.S. equities. It’s like a strong cold front finally crossing the mountains, cutting off the persistent six-year southern warm and moist airflow; the isobar that had been compressed for six years is loosening on the weather map. But note, the increased exposure in the near term and neutral stance in the long term essentially represent a temporary pause before the upper-level trough, not the start of summer. The key tension now lies in the pressure gradient zone between 5.2% and 5.9%. The steeper the gradient, the stronger the wind speed, and market volatility will be drawn up. The short end is sheltered by high interest rates, with logic as clear as a sunny sky; once long-term yields continue to rise, the discount rate—like a powerful fan—will blow fiercely on the equity market, rapidly drying up valuation moisture. High-beta names like $xNVDA are right at the mountain pass, where wind shear most easily generates turbulence. Is there a large-scale circulation reversal? No. The 19% reallocation doesn’t even count as an effective trough passage, let alone a monsoon shift. This is a typical "localized convection," not yet forming a continuous rain band. But the most dangerous aspect of this weather is that it often suddenly erupts on a quiet night—by the time all models uniformly signal a pivot, the heavy rain has already fallen. My observation is simple: before the 6% isobar is officially broken, any short-term bullish moves are not circulation reversals but just brief swings in the upper-level jet stream; once long-term yields forcibly climb past it, volatility in stocks and bonds will ignite simultaneously. At that point, what you see on the radar won’t be a single echo band but a large, contiguous area of strong convection. 6% is this front line; the calm before the front is so quiet you can hear your heartbeat, and the weather after the front depends on which air mass collapses first. #bofastockbonddivide Where is the money climbing the ladder? $BTC $ETH The funding side is unusually pushing hard in one direction this time. First, let's talk about the rate: on 10/13, the long position fee was still +0.006%, on 10/14 it turned negative to -0.0004%, and today it flipped back to +0.005%. The days of shorts collecting rent are over, and the sentiment steering wheel has turned back to the bulls. Next, looking at positions: on 10/13 and 10/15, 90 million and 85 million were withdrawn respectively, but today 157 million was replenished in one day. The 7-day cumulative net inflow is about +118 million, and the total market contract positions have also returned to 7.7 billion — the money pulled out during the drop is coming back up today. Finally, looking at the US stock spot ETF: last week’s net outflow of 680 million was the largest single week since June, but on 10/14 it turned positive with net inflow on the first day. The IBIT position cost is about 81,500, and the current price has just stood back on this cost line. Rate turning positive, contract replenishment, ETF turning positive — these three pillars unusually lean toward the same side, which is the confidence to dare to go long on the rebound. 100x Hunter · Momentum List｜10/16 Turnover rate = volume / market cap.

On October 14th, under the WAL post, a friend left a message: "WAL won't reach 0.07, keep shorting." At that time, WAL was around 0.05. Yesterday it once surged above about 0.06, just a small distance from 0.07 — then it reversed and is now around 0.048. 0.07, it didn’t even get close. Yesterday's surge had solid catalysts: DATA Network (formerly Story Protocol) announced abandoning its own chain and migrating entirely to Sui. The Sui Foundation invested 30 million USD, and Walrus became the default storage layer. The positive news was priced in, price rose first then fell — classic "sell the news." So, to this short seller friend, you were right about the first half. As for "keep shorting" — WAL’s current price is about 0.048, still about 45% away from 0.07.

"Dust Settled: Neither Side Fully Won, 82000 Takes Over the Baton" Half an hour after the settlement bell rang, I compared the settlement sheets of the three major mainstream coins: quite a few bets placed, but none fully won. Settlement Sheet One, $BTC at the pain point line of 83000 hovering overhead: bulls bet on holding firm, bears bet on breaking through 80000, resulting in a split outcome 📋 My view: Bitcoin reported at 82228, up 1.16% in 24 hours, positions only shifted 0.28%—the rise is due to short covering, not new money. Settlement Sheet Two, $ETH was the strongest in half an hour, touching 2458, up 3.50% in 24 hours, with 72.37 million liquidations where shorts accounted for 60%, bears spent most of their ammo 🔥 My view: This wave was forced short covering, but positions increased by 2.38%, new money is following, healthier than Bitcoin. Settlement Sheet Three, $SOL at 106.57, up 3.37% in 24 hours, positions increased by 2.95%, short liquidations also 60%—same script as Ethereum 📈 My view: Price and positions move in sync, the most confident rise, once the big lock opens, new money first picks it and Ethereum. New cycle account: the pain point 83000 shifts down to 82000, Bitcoin at 82228 is pressing overhead. Tomorrow’s expiry is 194 million, next Friday 1.123 billion, the monthly bar at the end of the month is the thickest—the new game has just been dealt.

That gap matters because passive funds may wait for the Nov 11 list before acting, concentrating uncertainty rather than resolving it gradually. #MSCIBTCTreasuryRules Netflix will release its Q3 earnings after the market closes on October 20, with market expectations of revenue at $12.876 billion, an 11.9% year-over-year increase, and EPS of $0.831. The era of streaming relying on explosive user growth to tell its story is over. The current core issue is whether this slowdown is an inevitable phase of maturity for a big player or a sign of weakening content appeal and user engagement. In the past 8 quarters, Netflix's EPS has beaten expectations 7 times, demonstrating strong fundamental execution. Analysts' average target price is $93.93, nearly 30% higher than the current $72.61. The options market prices in an 8.39% single-day post-market volatility, reflecting heightened speculative sentiment. This quarter's EPS forecast shows a 37% year-over-year increase, largely due to a low base last year caused by Brazilian tax expenses. Stripping away this base effect, the real determinants of the trend are three key metrics. Whether advertising monetization can deliver on its doubled guidance. Management has set a target of $3 billion in advertising revenue this year, with Q2 growth close to 80%, yet the market still finds it slow. The key to sustaining valuation is whether Q3 can convert traffic into solid profits. Previously, Netflix laid off a thousand employees and shifted resources toward sports live streaming. If operating margin can hold steady at 33% or even improve, it indicates cost control has offset rising content expenses. Conversely, if guidance weakens, the logic of cost control driving profits will be undermined. #Netflix growth may slow, advertising business becomes a new focus # Netflix Growth May Slow, Advertising Business Becomes New Focus Actually, I'm not too worried about Netflix's earnings report being "bad" this time; what concerns me more is that even if the data is good, the stock price might not respond positively. The Q3 earnings report will be released after the U.S. market closes on October 20. Wall Street currently expects revenue of $12.87 billion and EPS of $0.82, basically in line with the company's guidance from the previous quarter. My own judgment is that revenue has a chance to slightly exceed expectations, and EPS will most likely meet or slightly exceed the target. The main reasons are continued contributions from advertising, price increases, and live content. Netflix's advertising revenue target for this year is about $3 billion. This time, I will focus on two other things: One is whether user watch time can continue to grow. The biggest concern in the market about Netflix now is no longer subscription numbers, but that free platforms like YouTube and TikTok are constantly competing for users' time. The other is profit margin and cost control. Netflix just announced layoffs of about 6% of its staff in the past two days. If the earnings report also shows good profit performance, the market will interpret this as improved efficiency; but if growth also starts to slow, it will be easily understood as "cutting costs to maintain profits." So I feel the earnings numbers will be somewhat positive, but whether the stock price can rise depends on whether management can prove that advertising and new businesses are truly starting to take over subscription growth. What Netflix lacks most now is no longer "profitability," but the next growth story. @OKX星球 #Tesla launches new generation Roadster, market rises Tesla officially launched the new generation Roadster flagship supercar, equipped with SpaceX cold air propulsion system, with a live hover demonstration igniting market sentiment, driving TSLA higher in pre-market trading. But the core positioning must be clarified: this is a halo showcase model, not a main revenue driver, planned for mass production in 2028, with an expected annual sales volume of only a few thousand units. In the short term, it has almost no substantial contribution to Tesla's revenue or gross margin and cannot solve the current market's biggest concern about overall vehicle profit pressure. The real value of the launch event lies in brand and technology narrative. It demonstrates the implementation of cutting-edge technologies such as aerospace propulsion, lightweight materials, and drive-by-wire integration, proving Tesla's engineering innovation capabilities to the market, while strengthening expectations of Tesla and SpaceX collaboration. On the eve of the Q3 earnings report, it serves to boost market confidence. However, it should be distinguished that the stock price rise is more of an emotional speculation; the core fundamentals still depend on vehicle deliveries, FSD commercialization, and gross margin recovery. The Roadster cannot change the profitability dilemma of the overall vehicle business. In terms of cross-market transmission: TSLA's strength will temporarily raise risk appetite for Nasdaq growth stocks, providing slight emotional support for BTC, ETH. But this is a thematic pulse benefit; the main drivers for crypto assets remain U.S. Treasury yields, inflation, and interest rate expectations. If U.S. stock funds choose to realize profits in the evening and TSLA retreats after a surge, this emotional dividend will quickly fade, making it difficult to drive an independent rise in crypto $BTC $ETH $SNDK #NetflixQ3AdsAndMargins Tesla demonstrated the flying version of its sports car, the Roadster, today at the SpaceX test site in Texas. During Tesla's demonstration, the Nasdaq was closed, and traditional markets were not trading, but on-chain TSLA started first, with the price rising from $362 to $377. $xTSLA #Tesla launches new generation Roadster, market rises What exactly does Tesla make money from? What is its real valuation now? Is this price expensive or not, and is it worth buying? How much can the flying car story really change the fundamentals? Don't rush, let me explain one by one. 1. What exactly does Tesla make money from? Four business segments, different values. When Tesla is mentioned, many people think of the Model 3 and Model Y. But the reason the capital market is willing to give it a valuation far higher than traditional automakers is that it simultaneously has automotive, energy, and service businesses, as well as autonomous driving and robotics businesses that have yet to be fully realized. According to Tesla's 2025 annual report and the Q2 2026 financial report: #Tesla delivery exceeds expectations, profit recovery becomes the focus In Q2 2026, Tesla's automotive business gross margin was about 16.9%, and the energy business gross margin was about 20.4%. The automotive business still contributes the vast majority of revenue, while the energy business, although having growth potential, has recently experienced margin fluctuations. What truly sets Tesla's valuation apart from traditional automakers depends on three other expectations: FSD: Whether it can gradually form sustainable software revenue from assisted driving features;#Netflix Growth May Slow, Advertising Business Becomes New Focus Netflix will release its Q3 earnings report after the market closes on October 20, 2026, Eastern Time. The company previously guided for revenue of about $12.86 billion (year-over-year growth of approximately 11.7%), diluted EPS of $0.82, and an operating margin of 33.2%. The current Wall Street consensus largely aligns with this, with revenue expectations mostly between $12.87 billion and $12.88 billion, EPS around $0.82 to $0.83, and year-over-year growth rates of about 12% and 39% (last year’s base was low due to a one-time tax expense in Brazil). However, the market’s bar for "exceeding expectations" is not low. The stock has already significantly pulled back this year, and investors are more focused on whether user engagement and viewing time have stabilized, as well as, more importantly, whether the guidance for Q4 and the full year will be raised or at least maintained. If the results only "meet guidance" and the outlook remains cautious, the stock price may still face pressure; conversely, an advertising beat combined with a more optimistic outlook is more likely to spark a rebound. Overall, this quarter’s earnings report is unlikely to deliver a big surprise, but under conservative expectations and cost control support, a slight beat is quite possible. The real decisive factor remains whether management can use data and guidance to prove that growth momentum has not yet peaked.Whales are buying BTC, so why am I not rushing to bottom-fish yet? ETF outflows, whales increasing holdings, many people see this and think: the big players are stepping in, $80,000 BTC is secured. But I want to ask: are you making the same trade as the whales? 🔹 They buy spot, you open contracts Spot can withstand volatility, contracts have to deal with margin and liquidation lines. Even if BTC eventually rebounds, a single dip in between could kick you off the ride. 🔹 Increasing holdings doesn’t mean no hedging Even if large positions increase, you can’t directly assume the other side has no shorts or options on other platforms. Seeing one side of the position doesn’t mean you see the full strategy. 🔹 Cumulative increase can’t directly offset single-day outflows Position changes over several weeks and single-day ETF fund flows differ in timing and statistical scope. You can’t simply compare sizes, let alone declare selling pressure has been absorbed. So how do I view BTC? I’m still bearish for now, but I don’t chase shorts. $80,000 is a key level to watch: if it dips again, only if selling pressure is quickly absorbed can we reasonably judge the support is effective. Above, watch $83,000 first; if the rebound reaches here but buying can’t keep up, beware of a pullback after a spike. If volume increases and it holds steady, bearish expectations should be lowered. Whale buying can be a clue, but don’t blindly rush in. They can hold for months, your contracts might not last through tonight. 📊 Netflix: YES at 77%, but NO deserves a closer look! 👀 The OKX market is betting on GAAP EPS beating $0.84. Yet analyst consensus is around $0.82. Netflix often beats expectations, but clearing this specific threshold is the real challenge. 🎯 My analysis slightly favors NO (55%) over YES (45%). ⚠️ October 20 is when the numbers will speak. DYOR! #NetflixQ3AdsAndMargins #Tesla launches new generation Roadster, market rises Tesla Roadster has once again become the market focus, but I am more concerned about one question: how much actual value can a high-performance sports car create for Tesla? From a business model perspective, the Roadster is unlikely to become a major source of Tesla's sales and profits. Its strategic significance lies in showcasing battery, electric drive, and vehicle engineering capabilities, strengthening Tesla's technical brand image. However, the capital market's valuation of Tesla has long extended beyond the automotive business to include long-term expectations for autonomous driving, robotics, and energy businesses. Therefore, even if the Roadster triggers a stock price increase, it is necessary to distinguish between the emotional premium brought by the product launch and fundamental changes that can sustainably improve profitability. Short-term market trends can be driven by expectations, but long-term valuation ultimately requires cash flow validation. I am more focused on the subsequent mass production timeline, delivery fulfillment capability, and whether the technological achievements can be applied to scalable products. Do you think the Roadster is proof of Tesla's technical strength or just a brand marketing event?On October 15, Ripple announced that institutional clients have been trading RWA perpetual swaps through Ripple Prime, referencing over 100 markets covering stocks, indices, metals, energy, and forex, with RLUSD usable as collateral. An interesting contrast is that stock exchanges close on weekends, yet their derivatives can continue running. Here, the traded swaps reference traditional assets and should not be directly interpreted as owning the underlying stocks, nor should shareholder rights be assumed. I am more concerned about how weekend prices are formed and how collateral is replenished during volatility. Extended trading hours give institutions more room to adjust exposure but also shift issues that could wait until Monday to Sunday. This opening is aimed at institutions, with specific availability depending on region and eligibility. $BTC Chip stocks have recently fallen sharply. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index has dropped 12% over the past six trading days, wiping out about 1 trillion USD in market value, which most interpret as capital withdrawing. But the money flow in the same week went in the opposite direction. The $72 billion semiconductor ETF attracted over $430 million in three trading days, poised to set the largest weekly inflow since early September; the triple-leveraged similar ETF fell nearly 21% this week, yet still saw about $3.8 billion inflow, marking the highest single-week record in the history of this $19 billion fund. The more it falls, the more aggressively it is bought, and all purchases are in leveraged instruments. Next, it depends on one thing: whether this leveraged capital is followed by a second round, and whether the index's decline will narrow. $BTC What major events are worth paying attention to in the next month? October 19: CME will launch $UNI and BCH futures, marking CME's first introduction of DeFi governance token futures. Contracts are divided into standard 10,000 UNI and micro 1,000 UNI, cash-settled and regulated by the CFTC. UNI is currently priced around $7, with whales withdrawing 600,000 tokens from Binance in 24 hours. Futures provide only institutional hedging channels, will not bring spot buying demand, representing a structural positive but short-term neutral, while also opening short-selling opportunities; potential hard risk is that regulatory approval has no clear deadline. October 20: $ZEC will hold a NU7 upgrade vote, assessing testnet performance to finalize the mainnet activation height on November 5. The upgrade will reduce block time from 75 seconds to 25 seconds, allocate 60% of fees to the recycling pool, eliminate v4 transactions, reduce block rewards but maintain daily issuance unchanged; the testnet has run without major faults. The event itself is a technical milestone, interpreted as neutral to slightly bullish if passed, bearish short-term if delayed. ZEC is currently priced at 1235, with support at 1175. October 21: $SOL Alpenglow mainnet upgrade will activate at epoch 1064, reducing confirmation latency to about 150 milliseconds and eliminating TowerBFT. Note that post-upgrade, vote removal from blocks will cause a TPS statistic cliff, which is an accounting adjustment rather than a performance failure. This event is mid-term bullish, short-term neutral, with expectations of sell-the-news; SOL is currently priced at 105, with resistance at 125.$BSP vs $MEGA : Strong Gains, Weakening Demand? $BSP is up 8.47%, with longs dominating and shorts underwater. But recent selling is nearly seven times stronger than buying. $MEGA looks more balanced. Longs are mostly profitable, yet selling also exceeds buying. My view: BSP has stronger momentum but faces greater profit-taking risk. MEGA looks less overheated, although buyers haven't taken control. Both look bullish on positioning, but recent capital flows tell a more cautious story.#Tesla Delivery Exceeds Expectations, Profit Recovery Becomes the Focus Tesla delivered 486,500 vehicles in Q3, surpassing Wall Street consensus by about 5%, with the stock price rising over 5% in response. After two consecutive years of declining sales, the core automotive business has finally shown a sign of stabilization. However, delivery volume is just the entry ticket; the real question determining whether the valuation logic can hold steady is the repeatedly asked question in the October 21 earnings report: how much profit can be made per vehicle sold. The value of exceeding delivery expectations: Looking only at year-over-year data, Q3 deliveries actually declined by 2.1%, below last year's 497,000 vehicles. But last year's high base had a special background: the U.S. federal tax credit expired at the end of September 2025, triggering a buying spree. Excluding this factor, a 1.3% sequential growth and two consecutive quarters of inventory digestion indicate that end demand has not collapsed. The real growth comes from Europe. FSD has received regulatory approval in Croatia, Slovenia, and the Czech Republic; sales in South Korea and Australia grew by 15% and 21% year-over-year respectively. JPMorgan views these latter two markets as effective references for demand growth after FSD activation. The export buffer from the Shanghai factory is also playing a role, with about 36,000 of the approximately 86,000 vehicles produced in August used for export, accounting for nearly 42%. However, the EU-wide FSD approval vote has been postponed from the original October to December, so short-term uncertainty remains. Continued pressure on profitability:📉CPI and PPI consecutively disappoint｜BTC falls below 80,000, long and short positions alternately liquidated $BTC: Core PPI month-on-month at 1.3%, hitting a new high since March 2022, causing BTC to directly break below 80,000. Subsequent rebound driven by the International Energy Agency releasing 100 million barrels of oil reserves, and the 10-year US Treasury yield falling from 5.3% to 5.04%, risk sentiment recovers, pushing BTC up to 82,600. The market experiences a double liquidation of longs and shorts: long positions liquidated for $72 million, while during the rebound, short positions were liquidated for $19 million, with both sides being harvested in this volatile market. Technically, bears dominate, the 80,000 support has failed, and the market has entered a disorderly oscillation. 84,000 is the dividing line of strength between bulls and bears; even though the rebound touched 82,600, the large-scale bearish pattern remains unchanged. $ETH: Spot ETFs continue to bleed, with BTC+ETH net outflows totaling $390 million in a single day. Bitmine is only 6 weeks away from reaching its 5% holding target, after which it will stop increasing its position. Resistance from trapped positions above 2450-2500 is obvious; RSI slightly recovers from 37 but remains neutral to weak, so the rebound is mainly approached with a reduction in holdings. #US CPI and PPI both exceed expectations, will there be another rate hike within the year? 📊资金出现撕裂：ETF流出，巨鲸逆势吸筹 ETF单日净流出3209枚BTC，约2.58亿美元。Bitfinex数据显示，8月下旬至今大额持有者累计增持约6万枚BTC，主要建仓区间80000‑86000，形成ETF在撤、巨鲸在吸的资金分化格局。 80000既是前期低点，也是巨鲸核心成本区。守住该位置，代表巨鲸承接有效，反弹才有根基；若ETF持续流出导致80000失守，会打开更深下行空间。宏观层面压力未消，CPI、PPI接连超预期，通胀连续三月回升，加息预期抬升，ETF流出本质是资金避险行为。个人操作：昨日81500空单止盈离场，目前空仓。8万附近为多重支撑，现阶段不急于多空开仓。回踩8万观察承接：缩量不破可轻仓试多，止损79000；放量跌破则继续等待更低位置。$BTC $ETH $ZEC 操作纪律：不追涨不杀跌，持仓务必设置止损。注：分析存在时效性，行情瞬息万变，祝交易顺利。特斯拉 $TSLA 三季报即将揭晓，重点看利润与AI！特斯拉将于10月21日美股盘后公布2026年第三季度财报。此前公布的交付量约48.65万辆，超出市场预期，但同比仍有下滑，销量回暖能否转化为利润增长，是本次财报的关键。市场预计三季度营收约278亿美元，调整后每股收益约0.44美元。除了汽车毛利率和自由现金流，我更关注Robotaxi商业化、FSD拓展以及Optimus机器人的最新进展。新一代Roadster虽然带来话题，但长期估值最终还是要靠业绩兑现。特斯拉今天发布了新一代Roadster，但计划2028年才投产，短期更多是品牌与技术层面的催化。真正决定长期估值的，还是Robotaxi商业化进度、FSD拓展以及Optimus机器人的落地能力。我的看法是，特斯拉早已不只是汽车公司，AI和自动驾驶才是估值想象力的来源。不过，如果汽车利润持续承压，而新业务迟迟无法兑现，高估值依然存在回调风险。这次财报，你更看好汽车业务复苏，还是AI与Robotaxi带来的长期价值？ #特斯拉交付超预期后盈利修复成焦点 🐳 BTC has recently been shaking the market and making people uneasy, but there's an interesting set of data — the whales haven't fled; in fact, their numbers are increasing. On October 16, Santiment reported that the number of wallets holding between 10 and 10,000 BTC on-chain has reached 20,338, setting a new all-time high. More importantly, this number has been steadily rising since mid-July, even though BTC prices have fluctuated and market sentiment has been volatile. These well-funded players are still gradually increasing. In plain terms, these people are the players in the crypto space with substantial "assets." When the market rises, they obviously can make money; but what's truly noteworthy is that even when the market is weak and prices are volatile, they continue to increase. It's a bit like a mall business doing poorly — ordinary people might quickly close their shops and leave, but wealthy owners take advantage of cheap rent to keep leasing stores and stock up. 🐳 Of course, this data shouldn't be simply interpreted as "whales bought BTC, so BTC is about to rise." The increase in on-chain wallet numbers could also come from fund splitting, address migration, or institutional position adjustments, so it shouldn't be taken as a standalone buy signal. But from a market sentiment perspective, it at least indicates one thing: there is currently no sign of large-scale capital collectively fleeing BTC. Especially since the steady growth since mid-July, this combination of "price volatility with an increasing number of whales" is more worth paying attention to than a single large transfer on any given day.In one sentence: Narrative determines where the funds look, liquidity determines how far the funds can go, and consensus determines how long the funds dare to stay. Without any one of these three, the market won't go far. Layer one: Narrative — without a story, funds dare not enter. Crypto assets have no cash flow, no P/E ratio, no dividends. What basis do you have to price them? It's based on narrative. Bitcoin is "digital gold," Ethereum is the "world computer," Solana is a "high-performance public chain," RWA is "bringing real-world assets on-chain." These are not technical descriptions, but narratives. They compress a complex code protocol into a sentence you can remember, share, and use to persuade others. How powerful is narrative? The TRUMP token is a typical example. Within 48 hours after the dinner announcement, trading volume surged 300%, with 220 whales averaging a holding cost of $1.78 million, and the price once soared 50%. But by the time the dinner officially started, the price had already fallen back. The price peak appeared during the message diffusion period, not when the event landed. Narrative completes pricing during the "expectation" phase and completes harvesting when the "fact" lands. In 2025, the average rebound duration of altcoins lasted only 20 days, far less than 60 days in 2024. The narrative lifecycle is shortening, and rotation speed is accelerating. From DeFi to NFT, from L2 to Restaking, from AI Agent to RWA, almost every month a new narrative emerges. Layer two: Liquidity — no matter how good the narrative, without money it can't rise.😂 Besides CPI, September's PPI also exploded! Inflation surged 6.3%, can the “soft landing” continue? Brothers, this time inflation really hit the market hard! $BTC September US PPI rose 6.3% year-on-year, far exceeding the market expectation of 5.4%; month-on-month it increased 1.3%, the largest rise since March 2022. $ETH Energy was the biggest driver, with commodity prices soaring, gasoline prices alone surged over 20% in a single month. Core PPI also exceeded expectations, indicating that this time it's not just energy prices; underlying inflationary pressures are also rising. But the most interesting thing is: despite such bad data, the market didn’t crash! The S&P 500 and Nasdaq still closed higher, and Bitcoin also rebounded. Why? Because the day before, CPI had already washed out panic selling, so the market had some expectations for the inflation downside. Instead, funds started shifting from overvalued AI and chip sectors to value stocks and small caps. So there’s no need to panic excessively now. High inflation ≠ the market must fall. The real variables ahead are oil prices and geopolitical situations. If oil prices fall, inflation pressure may gradually ease, and the market’s rate cut expectations naturally have room to recover. So my thinking is simple: be cautious in the short term, keep observing in the medium term. What we fear most now isn’t bad news, but everyone FOMOing when they see a rebound. Let the market digest this wave of inflation shock first; the real reversal opportunity, be patient and wait! #Tesla releases new generation Roadster, market rises Today's market is quite interesting. $BTC is still recovering from the previous drop, many coins are just catching their breath, but NEAR once surged to $5.42, with a 24-hour increase close to 10%. At times like this, the easiest judgment is: the AI narrative is back, and the altcoin rally is coming. I think it's too early to draw that conclusion. This round of $NEAR's rise is not completely without fundamental support. On September 29, the Bitwise NEAR ETF officially launched on NYSE Arca, ticker NRR. Earlier, NEAR Intents had already placed cross-chain trading, unified liquidity, and AI agent payments within the same narrative. Bitwise stated in the ETF release announcement that Intents has processed over $32 billion in cumulative volume; NEAR's official disclosed fee allocation mechanism also began linking product usage with NEAR token demand. These changes mean NEAR is no longer just a "husband chain rebound" story. The ETF provides a traditional capital entry point, Intents attempts to offer real use cases, and AI is responsible for giving the market imagination space. With these three factors combined, it's not surprising that capital is willing to revalue it. But today's surge cannot be entirely attributed to fundamentals. NEAR is currently around $5.20, with an intraday range from $4.54 to $5.42. Nearly 20% high-low volatility in less than a day indicates that capital disagreement is much greater than what a single bullish candle suggests. Meanwhile, BTC also from 8 #Netflix growth may slow, advertising business becomes a new highlight Bullish 【 BTC volume surged with a long wick, 4-hour bottom divergence confirmed! 84000–85000 becomes the next key level 】 Last night’s article mentioned the increasing likelihood of BTC breaking below 80,000. Indeed, after several probes, BTC finally broke through 80,000, dipping to 79,800 and closing with a long wick. So, does this mean the defense line has been breached and a further collapse is starting? To clarify, when we talk about a breakdown, we usually mean an effective breakdown, which is generally judged by the daily close at major support levels. This kind of wick does not count. It can be understood that many stop-losses or liquidations clustered around 80,000, and the main force broke through here to remove liquidity below. Therefore, BTC has returned to the previous consolidation range, with a daily volume surge and wick close, 4-hour bottom divergence confirmed, and the daily MACD near the zero line support. Both indicators and patterns have improved. 【❤️As shown in Figure 1】 Next, it will cycle again. Keep an eye on the 84000 to 85000 range. If it can’t break through, there will be more fluctuations; if it breaks and holds above, it will continue toward new highs! 【❤️As shown in Figure 2】 Now you understand why we have been emphasizing that the market will be very complex. This kind of consolidation phase is torturous with no compromise; only after choosing a direction will trading become more comfortable. Continue to watch the spot market with a bullish bias but trade less, wait for the market to show direction! Trading idea: Near BTC’s lowest point yesterday, repeatedly reminded that it is only suitable for adding positions, not for cutting losses, hold the spot you have; currently still heavily invested in spot 【❤️As shown in Figure 3】 $BTC $ETH The macro line is particularly conflicted today. When Bitcoin dropped below 82,000, the US spot Bitcoin ETF saw a net outflow of over 260 million USD in one week, with money being pulled out from the largest pocket. Logically, the outflow should start with Bitcoin, but the XRP ETF fund did the opposite, showing a net inflow for the week, becoming one of the few channels that didn't bleed in this round. This is what I want to say: in the same market, the "sell Bitcoin, buy others" switch is often more worth pondering than a full collapse. The funds haven't left; they're just changing seats. During the same period, exchange wallets collected over 80 million XRP in three days — don't rush to see this data as positive; more exchange inflows could mean selling pressure or just custody relocation. We need to watch the direction over the following days. XRP itself is currently priced at a bit over $1.30, up just over 2% in one day, but still negative over seven days, hovering in the middle range of the past week. Some have already called for this wave to reach $1.30. My attitude is old-school: wait until the ETF weekly report shows net inflows for two consecutive weeks before commenting. One day's fund flow is just noise; those who gamble on data never end well. This isn't about whether to get on board or not; the cards haven't all been dealt yet. #TSMC Q3 net profit exceeds expectations, profits hit a record high $XRP #奈飞增长或放缓，广告业务成新看点 AI剧带来的利润和市场提升还早着呢 Netflix (NFLX) 2026 Q3 Earnings Preview Netflix will release its 2026 Q3 earnings report after the U.S. market closes on October 20. Company Official Guidance - Revenue: $12.86 billion (YoY +11.7%) - EPS: $0.82 - Operating Margin: 33.2% Wall Street Estimates - Revenue: $13.0 billion - EPS: $0.84 The company's guidance is generally conservative and below market expectations, leaving room for upside surprises in this earnings report. Key Positive Drivers 1. High growth in advertising business, with full-year 2026 ad revenue expected to nearly double, and high gross margin characteristics continuing to boost overall profits. 2. Price increases implemented across multiple global regions, raising ARPU and offsetting slower subscriber growth. 3. Solid Q2 base: revenue of $12.56 billion, EPS of $0.80, maintaining strong profitability. 4. High-quality summer content launched in Q3, improving user engagement and retention quarter-over-quarter. Risks Intense competition in the streaming industry combined with continued high content amortization costs will suppress margin expansion in the short term. Market Outlook The negative factors for this earnings report have been priced in, making it easier to beat than to disappoint. As long as subscriber numbers and margins hold steady, results are likely to outperform the company's conservative guidance, supporting stock price recovery. Focus on three key metrics: new subscriber additions, advertising business growth, and actual operating margin. #奈飞增长或放缓，广告业务成新看点 $NFLX $SOL 的期权没有在为下跌抢保险，这是10月16日下午的期权盘口给出的读数。 OKX上10月18日到期的SOL期权，平值隐含波动率是60.7%，折成日波动大约3.2%。近30天实际的日波动是3.3%，两个数几乎重合，期权没有多收溢价，也没有压价。平值那档的delta是0.52，涨跌各一半，没有哪边被提前定价。往两头的行权价走，100和112离现价各差5到6个点。按delta粗算，到期时收在100下面的概率约12%，收在112上面的概率约14%。下方的概率比上方还低2个点，下跌并没有比上涨更被担心。波动率往下的一侧确实高一点，100的行权价是70.6%，112是66.4%，差4个点。这是温和的偏斜，买下跌保护的人有，但没挤成一团。真正恐慌的时候，下方这一侧会一下子拉开很多。所以SOL在106上下，方向上偏多，盘口里押大跌的钱不多。 18日到期之前，100下面这个概率如果从12%抬到20%以上，就是下跌保险开始变贵了。Inflation is rising, but the long end has retreated from this year's highs Let's first talk about the facts that have already happened. The September CPI will be released this Wednesday (October 14): overall year-on-year 3.74%, previous 3.40%; core year-on-year 2.56%, previous 2.45%; month-on-month +0.59% and +0.37%, both are going up. Meanwhile, the long end is retreating. The 10-year US Treasury yield fell from 5.31% on October 5 (the year's high) to 5.10%, and the 30-year fell from 5.67% to 5.43%. On the short end, the effective federal funds rate remains at 3.88%, and the 2-year is at 4.77%—the policy rate range has barely moved. The key point is to look at these two directions together. The short end is determined by the Federal Reserve, the long end by the market—the long end roughly consists of inflation expectations + term premium (extra compensation for lending to the US for a longer time) + real interest rate. Inflation is rising, but the long end is falling, indicating that what is suppressing the long end is not the September inflation itself. What the market is really debating is another issue: when inflation stays above 3%, can rate cuts continue downward? The 2-year is still stuck at 4.77%, and the market is not pricing in a "quick drop on the short end"; meanwhile, the 10-year real yield is 2.78%, and the 30-year is 3.18%, so the real interest rates after subtracting inflation are not cheap. My judgment: this round of long-end decline looks more like a correction of the previous rapid rise, not a turning point in the inflation issue. If inflation continues to strengthen but the long end cannot rise, then the cause should be sought in supply and term premium, rather than focusing on a specific item in the CPI. In terms of trading, the 2.78% real yield is the line suppressing gold and risk assets. The next observation points: the October 27-28 FOMC meeting (statement released at 2:00 AM Beijing time on October 29); then watch how the 10-year yield behaves around the 5% whole number level.But this wave is not moving alone. Injective is up nearly 30%, Celestia is up more than 20%, LayerZero and Arbitrum are also in double digits. They are all the ones that were hit the hardest earlier and have the best stories to tell. $NEAR $BTC $ETH So for this rebound, I prefer to treat it as an oversold bounce plus sentiment repair, rather than a sudden fundamental reversal. The funds are now choosing not based on whose business has improved, but on who has fallen deep enough and whose narrative is sexy enough. NEAR happens to have both: it fell a lot earlier and has always carried the AI public chain label. This kind of market usually has only two outcomes. One is that sentiment really bottoms out and funds start to flow back; the other is that liquidity makes one last struggle, rises, and then continues to grind down. I lean towards the latter, but guessing tops and bottoms is unreliable anyway. The key is whether it spreads afterward: can BTC stabilize first, do mainstream assets like ETH and SOL follow, and does trading volume continue to expand? If only those with the biggest early drops rise, it looks more like a catch-up rally, not an altcoin season. If NEAR rises another 10%, I won’t chase directly. For those holding positions, reduce in batches near the previous high resistance zone; for those without positions, wait for a pullback that doesn’t break support before trying a small position. Chasing a rally at this level is not cost-effective in terms of risk-reward. Standing on an oversold rebound is fine, but there’s still no evidence for an altcoin season. #Tesla releases new generation Roadster, market rises #US CPI and PPI both exceed expectations, will there be another rate hike this year? #Netflix growth may slow down,
