Today's crypto market did not move in complete sync: $BTC is more like consolidating at a high level, $ETH is testing risk appetite, and $SOL maintains stronger resilience. 📌 $BTC: High-level digestion, waiting for new catalysts $BTC is currently fluctuating around $84.2K, with a slight 0.4% decline in 24 hours, still maintaining about a 2.8% gain over the past 7 days. Previously, BTC surged to $87.4K, then pulled back to the $83K area, and now has returned to around $84K. Structurally, this looks more like a high-level consolidation after a rise rather than a simple trend reversal. In the short term, what really needs to be observed is whether the $83K–$84K support zone can hold and whether it can challenge above $87K again. There are also some changes in the capital flow: 🇺🇸 The US spot BTC ETF has recently maintained continuous net inflows, but the single-day fund scale has clearly cooled down compared to previous peaks. Funds have not obviously withdrawn, but the chasing enthusiasm is weakening. This means the market is gradually shifting from "fast accumulation" to "waiting for confirmation." 📌 $ETH: The battle around $2.7K remains key $ETH is currently hovering around $2.72K, having pulled back after testing $2.8K earlier. In the short term, $2.70K is an important observation area; if it can stabilize again between $2.75K–$2.80K, the market may refocus on the $3K area. Conversely, if it fails to holdHashrate showdown! When “Core Fundamentalism” meets a hard fork, which one is the real Bitcoin? ⚠️ This article is only an on-chain ideological review and does not constitute any investment advice. The BTCFi sector has always had a highly confusing narrative: CORE is born relying on Bitcoin’s hashrate, inheriting Satoshi Nakamoto’s spirit, and is the “true evolutionary version of Bitcoin.” After the hard fork event on 8.31, this narrative faces its ultimate test. When CORE’s “BTC hashrate fundamentalism” clashes with the underlying beliefs of the native Bitcoin community, a debate about “who is the real Bitcoin” unfolds. First, clarify the concepts: here, CORE refers to the CORE public chain with Satoshi Plus hybrid consensus; Bitcoin Core is the Bitcoin mainnet client development team—these two are completely different. The so-called “Core Fundamentalism” is the belief held by some supporters in the CORE community: Bitcoin hashrate = Bitcoin security, as long as BTC hashrate is used for endorsement, it inherits Bitcoin’s spirit and is an extension of Bitcoin. 1. The core claim of Core Fundamentalism The underlying logic of this belief is simple: 1. Bitcoin’s strongest moat is its massive POW hashrate; 2. CORE’s Satoshi Plus consensus allows Bitcoin miners to delegate hashrate to guard this chain, effectively transplanting Bitcoin’s security capabilities; 3. The native Bitcoin mainnet lacks smart contracts and cannot do BTCFi; CORIn the last bull market, the four major Ethereum L2 champions, $ARB, after Robinhood Chain made the list, experienced a trend rally, and STRK, riding the anonymous privacy track, also rose significantly from the bottom. Now only $OP and $ZK are still hovering in the bottom range. OP seems to have a partnership with BASE. If BASE launches its chain later and adopts OP's technology like Robinhood Chain uses ARB technology, OP might also experience a trend rally. ZK is a project even praised by Vitalik. If ETH transforms into a privacy public chain in the future, ZK, as a technical bridge, could directly benefit. The four major L2 champions opened high and fell low in the last bull market, dropping close to zero, and most people were probably washed out. I still hold the view: The L2 track is still worth attention in this bull market; it depends on whether OP and ZK can find their new narratives going forward. $DASH DASH taught me one thing: occasionally making money by shorting can easily create the illusion of "I understand it." Then you keep shorting and keep losing. If you can't beat it, join it. Starting today, I respect the trend.📈When Wall Street's interest rate hammer strikes the crypto world, some tremble while others quietly buy the dip $BTC: Oscillating near $84,000, with the 10-year US Treasury yield rising above 5.2% posing major pressure. However, BTC spot ETFs have reversed a previous $5.8 billion loss in net inflows this year, with institutional funds continuously providing support. Facing macro headwinds and institutional backing, treat the short term as range-bound, watching the $83,000 support level for effectiveness; avoid chasing highs $ETH: $2,691, up 2.39% this week, with institutional funds continuously flowing in via ETFs. On-chain data shows exchange ETH holdings account for only 3.49%, indicating limited selling pressure. The ecosystem fundamentals are solid; if BTC stabilizes, ETH is likely to follow upward. Watch for support near $2,660 $SOL: Current price around $121, with the Alpenglow upgrade already running on the testnet, aiming to reduce final confirmation time from 12.8 seconds to 150 milliseconds. Nasdaq-listed Forward Industries plans to raise $25 million to increase SOL holdings. Technical upgrades and corporate accumulation form a dual positive; consider accumulating in batches on pullbacks below $120 $ZEC: Current price around $1,545, with a 587% increase over the past 180 days. Highly controversial, with one side accusing whales of controlling 200,000 coins ready to dump anytime, while the other believes it is capturing Bitcoin's overflow funds focused on privacy and anti-quantum narratives. Recommendation: extremely volatile and high-risk speculative asset, suitable only for small position probing with strict stop-loss settingsDuring the altcoin frenzy, the years five or six ago should be remembered most BTC has stabilized around $84,000, but altcoins are blooming everywhere. Many immediately translate this as: the bull is here, the altcoin season has arrived. The logic seems straightforward—BTC is too expensive, doubling is difficult; altcoins are cheap, so there's the imagination of financial freedom. So retail investors rush in, turning "bottom fishing" into "chasing highs." But what the market loves to exploit most is precisely this consensus. In the last bull market, altcoins also gave people illusions early on, but most coins followed the decline rather than the rise, with only a very few breaking out, and most left with a long, slow downtrend. Money flowing into altcoins is not necessarily due to value discovery; it could also be because the BTC ticket is too expensive and new stories are needed to sustain sentiment. I believed this a few years ago too. Someone at home held a handful of altcoin spot for five or six years, unwilling in heart, stubborn in thought, and in the end could only be slaughtered. The financial world kills not only in crashes but also by giving you hope and then slowly taking it away. Now BTC spot ETFs have attracted over $2.8 billion in six consecutive days, with institutional funds buying BTC, while the altcoin frenzy looks more like retail investors fighting among themselves. Will we be fooled again? Time will tell. The excitement can be watched, but positions must be clear: don’t bet all your dreams on a place where "most will be disappointed." #BTC现货ETF连续6日吸金超28亿美元 #美债长端利率持续攀升，融资压力升温 #特朗普据悉拒绝7天方案，霍尔木兹重开再生变 $BTC $ETH #Trump reportedly rejects 7-day plan, Hormuz reopening faces new changes The recent US-Iran situation remains deadlocked, with the US directly rejecting Iran's ceasefire proposal and signaling expectations for subsequent military actions. However, the market has grown fatigued; crude oil surged then retreated, and the geopolitical conflict premium is rapidly weakening. Essentially, this is a prolonged game of attrition between both sides, with no clear short-term winner. Currently, the entire macro transmission chain is very clear: Middle East risks underpin oil prices, oil prices stabilize inflation expectations, which directly pushes long-term US Treasury yields to multi-year highs. Ultra-high risk-free yields suppress the overall market, significantly raising the cost of holding currency, which is the core reason BTC continues to face pressure. From the market perspective, $BTC is grinding intensely in the 84,000–88,000 range, with balanced long and short liquidations and active leverage withdrawal, no panic selling pressure—this is purely a balance of macro suppression and institutional support. Two common misconceptions to note: the crypto market reacts with a lag to crude oil and gold, so do not use short-term commodity fluctuations to predict crypto prices; the narrative of a sharp oil price surge circulating online is outdated, with the latest institutional reports having revised this view, making it of very limited reference value. At this stage, there is no need to worry about whether the geopolitical conflict will escalate; the focus should be on whether oil prices and US Treasury yields can ease. As long as inflation expectations remain high, the market will struggle to form a clear one-sided trend. Currently, the range for game-playing is very narrow with low win rates. The situation is highly uncertain, so avoid blindly guessing tops or bottoms. The best approach in the current market is to watch more, act less, and patiently wait for a clear direction. Every few days, I review BTC's market trends over the past few years to optimize my system, only to find that no matter what I do, it's wrong. I review until I feel overwhelmed. Looking back, since I am examining my trades from a god's-eye view, of course, everything seems wrong. The more I review, the more sensitive I become to my system. From this god's-eye perspective, all I see are shadows of my losses; the profitable trades are ignored by myself. Today might be an important turning point. The market is basically either trending, oscillating, or in a wide channel. Different backgrounds require different trading methods. Maybe! Perhaps! Hmm!

The bull market is not over; a round of correction and reset is on the way Many people only focus on K-line price fluctuations but overlook that on-chain data is the real trump card of capital. Currently, Bitcoin's unrealized profit rate has surged to 33%, reaching the highest level since December 2024. Along with the soaring floating profits, the market has seen the largest single profit-taking sell-off in 2026: 25,700 BTC sold in a concentrated manner. This is a textbook market signal: the momentum of this rally is weakening. Core logic to understand the current market 1. The entire market's on-paper profits have piled up too high, with a large number of positions ready to be realized and exited at any time; 2. Massive sell orders are flooding out, but the newly added buy orders and fresh capital in the market are insufficient to fully absorb this selling pressure; 3. Historical comparison: the last time the unrealized profit rate reached this level was December 2024, after which the market experienced a prolonged correction lasting several months. This rally has been impressive enough, but on-chain data has already given a clear signal: Before starting the next higher main upward wave, the market needs a correction and reset. ⚠️ Important to distinguish: a correction within a bull market does not mean the bull market is over. This kind of pullback essentially cleans out floating positions and digests profit-taking, reloading momentum for the subsequent rally. Every deep correction in a bull market paves the way for higher prices later, but short-term volatility and sharp declines must not be ignored. Weekend market liquidity is naturally weak, with frequent false breakouts and spike moves, combined with pressure from on-chain profit-taking; be sure to stay alert before the weekend, reduce positions, and avoid heavy chasing of highs. Trading advice The current market is a typical long-term bullish trend with rising short-term risks. Do not blindly hold full positions just because the bull market is still ongoing; nor should you turn bearish on the long cycle just because of short-term correction signals. In a volatile market, strictly control leverage, always use stop-losses, patiently wait for boundary signals, and avoid opening random trades in between. Patiently wait for the market to complete this profit reset; that is the starting point for the next opportunity. *Bitcoin Latest News September 27, 3 AM Chinese* *Current Price $84,132 | 24H Range $83,174 - $84,715 | +0.03% Narrow Volatility* *1.

Bidirectional Locking of Channel Capacity: In state channels, funds can only flow bidirectionally within the fixed amount deposited at channel establishment. Once one side makes too many one-way payments, that side's liquidity is completely exhausted, making it impossible to continue supporting subsequent transfers. 2. High Friction in Node Rebalancing: Large routing nodes must frequently initiate on-chain transactions on the mainnet or use circular submarine swaps to maintain bidirectional channel flow, incurring extremely high Gas costs during mainnet congestion. 3. Intensified Centralized Hub Trend: To reduce settlement friction, network transactions gradually concentrate toward a very small number of highly capitalized centralized nodes, objectively posing new challenges to the network's decentralization and censorship resistance. Only by understanding the capital lock-up costs behind layer-two channels can one objectively assess the real pace of the Lightning Network's daily commercial deployment. $ETH $SOL #BTC spot ETF has attracted over $2.8 billion in inflows for 6 consecutive days After the Federal Reserve resumed rate hikes, Bitcoin did not experience the market's feared continuous crash; instead, it quickly absorbed selling pressure nearby afterward, showing resilience worth noting. Currently, Ethereum is generally in a volatile recovery pattern. Keep an eye on $2700, because whether it can rise depends on if ETH can break through with volume. After an earlier peak and pullback, several consecutive candlesticks have been moving sideways at a low level. If US Treasury yields continue to rise and the dollar strengthens simultaneously, BTC will remain under pressure. However, if Bitcoin still repeatedly holds firm under such macro conditions, the market is trading not just on rate cut expectations but on BTC's own scarcity and institutional demand. #Trump reportedly rejects 7-day plan, Hormuz reopening faces new changes #US long-term Treasury yields continue to climb, financing pressure intensifies $BTC $ETH $SOL #Stablecoin new regulations advance, payment and settlement accelerate landing The leader has something to say The Federal Reserve is going to issue licenses for stablecoins. On September 24, the GENIUS Act will publicly solicit opinions, proposing specific requirements for reserve assets, capital, and risk management, and clarifying the process for banks to apply for issuing payment stablecoins. SoFi has already used SoFiUSD and Mastercard for card settlement and plans to migrate $25 billion of card business over. I believe stablecoins are transforming from crypto tools into traditional financial infrastructure. The basis is straightforward. Regulatory rules are clear, banks can apply for issuance, and payment settlement is truly landing. This is not a concept; it is happening. Cross-border payments and demand for dollar assets will be affected. For the crypto market, this is a long-term positive, but it does not directly boost coin prices in the short term. After Bitcoin surged to 87,000 and then pulled back, I missed this wave and won’t chase the high. I will wait for a pullback to see if 84,000 to 85,000 can hold, then consider light positions. The Federal Reserve just raised rates, 5-year US Treasury yields broke 5%, and the high interest rate environment remains unchanged, so I won’t heavily bet on direction. $BTC $ETH $SOL The above analysis is time-sensitive; orders must have stop-loss set. Good luck.$SOL currently has multiple interpretations. One scenario suggests that the bottom was reached in June, and the worst phase is over. However, the bearish alternative I am watching is an expanded-flat correction pattern for $ETH—where wave C has either already completed or is about to end within the shadowed resistance area you marked. If we can get a clean five-wave reversal pattern from that area, it would strengthen the argument for a sharp decline pointing to a possible Q4 low. This is the current setup. Unless we see confirmation of that reversal structure completing, this remains just a possibility on the table—not a locked-in outcome. Be patient. Let the structure "show its cards" before making commitments. Key price levels will tell us which count is actually unfolding. $BTC #BTC spot ETF has attracted over $2.8 billion in inflows for 6 consecutive days BTC spot ETF has attracted over $2.8 billion in inflows for 6 consecutive days. Currently, the US spot BTC ETF has seen net inflows for 6 consecutive trading days, totaling $2.84 billion. JPMorgan pointed out that IBIT short positions remain close to the highest level of the year, with the put-to-call option ratio significantly higher than that of gold ETFs. Institutions are buying spot while hedging on the derivatives side. The most critical change is that this wave of inflows has reversed BTC ETF's year-to-date fund flow from a $5.8 billion deficit in mid-July to nearly $800 million in net inflows. The rebound may exceed expectations; if inflows continue to decline, there will be short-term pressure. #US long-term Treasury yields continue to rise, financing pressure intensifies #Trump reportedly rejects 7-day plan, Hormuz reopening faces new changes $BTC $ETH $SOL $BTC BTC spot ETF has attracted over $2.8 billion in inflows for 6 consecutive days BTC spot ETFs have seen sustained institutional buying, with cumulative net inflows exceeding $2.8 billion over 6 consecutive trading days. The capital flow has strongly rebounded, becoming the most important support force in this round of crypto market movement. This round of inflows is no longer short-term speculative funds; more traditional institutions are replenishing low allocation positions. Leading products like BlackRock continue to contribute the main incremental funds, continuously absorbing selling pressure during price fluctuations and stabilizing the market bottom. However, it is important to distinguish cause and effect: ETF capital inflows are a result of risk appetite recovery and not the sole driver of the market rise. The Federal Reserve's rate hike expectations still loom over the market, and U.S. Treasury yields and dollar volatility can disrupt institutional allocation willingness at any time. After continuous large inflows, market greed sentiment rises, and once inflows slow or reverse, BTC is prone to concentrated profit-taking. Going forward, the key focus is whether ETF inflows can continue; if inflows stop, the high-level consolidation pattern may be broken.

In the years I've been running the community, the thing I say most often isn't "which coin to buy," but three pieces of common sense: Exchanges are tools, not safes Don't screenshot your mnemonic phrase, don't upload it to cloud storage, don't send it to customer service The worst loss you suffer is often not from picking the wrong coin, but from trusting the wrong person or putting it in the wrong place When the crypto KOLs are full of "100x/insider/trade signals," you need to stay calm: No matter how attractive platform tokens are, there is platform risk No matter how high on-chain yields are, there is contract risk No matter how familiar the KOL is, they can't bear your liquidation for you It's Saturday today, don't rush to find the next Alpha. First ask yourself: If a major exchange announces something tomorrow, where are your coins, can you withdraw them, who holds the private keys? Personal experience sharing, not investment advice. DYOR, self-custody is not a slogan, it's a survival necessity. The biggest feature of this round of Btc's rise is the very fast speed. BTC rebounded from around $75,000 to around $87,000 in less than a week, with a cumulative increase of over 10%. On September 21, the single-day increase once reached about 6%, setting a stage high. This rise was driven by factors such as inflows into the US spot Bitcoin ETF and short covering. However, since the beginning of this week, the market has started to show obvious changes. BTC encountered resistance near $87,000 and then gradually fell back to around $84,000. From a technical structure perspective, the short-term upward momentum has cooled down. The latest market analysis shows there is significant selling pressure around $85,000 to $85,800, and BTC is currently trading below this pressure zone. ETF funds still provide support, but marginal momentum is weakening. A very important driving factor for this round of rise is the continuous inflow of funds into the US spot BTC ETF. On September 21, the US spot BTC ETF had a single-day net inflow of about $999 million, and funds continued to flow in afterward. By September 25, the ETF had maintained net inflows for multiple consecutive trading days, with a cumulative scale reaching tens of billions of dollars. However, it should be noted that although ETF funds are still flowing in, the daily inflow amount has significantly decreased. It was close to $1 billion on September 21, while the single-day inflow around September 25 dropped to about $190 million. This means: Funds have not completely withdrawn, but the marginal force driving the price to continue rising rapidly is weakening. At the same time, BTC falling back from above $87,000 to around $84,000 also indicates that profit-taking at high levels has become quite obvious. The most critical thing in the market now is not chasing the rise, but observing the strength of the pullback. From the current price structure, around $85,000 has become an important short-term resistance area. If BTC cannot retake $85,000 to $85,800 and form an effective breakout, the profit-taking from the previous rapid rise may continue to be released. On the downside, the $81,000 to $82,000 area needs to be closely watched. Recent market analysis also regards this area as a potentially important support zone. If the price pulls back here and quickly sees buying, it indicates that this round of market movement is more of a normal correction after a rise; if this area is also clearly broken, then the pullback structure may further expand.$BTC still going to drop? Trump is causing trouble again #特朗普据悉拒绝7天方案，霍尔木兹重开再生变 On Friday, crude oil fell about 2% due to progress in negotiations, and the market is still hoping that the Strait of Hormuz can reopen within 7 days. Then news came out that Trump reportedly rejected Iran's proposal. The report cites anonymous U.S. officials, and Iran is still waiting for an official response from the U.S. But for $BTC, there is one more unresolved issue. The Strait of Hormuz controls the oil route. If the reopening continues to be delayed and oil prices keep rising, the market will start worrying again about inflation and interest rates. At that point, BTC may not be able to hide behind the label of a “safe-haven asset,” and short-term funds might sell coins first. Coincidentally, it’s the weekend now, with U.S. stocks and crude oil markets closed, but BTC is still trading. Funds wanting to express concern can easily act first in the crypto space. Currently, BTC is still around $84,000 and hasn’t been directly scared down by this news. Let’s wait and see if BTC can hold steady after oil prices open next week. If it can really withstand this wave of bad news, the subsequent rebound will be even more promising.$ETH is currently still fluctuating around 2680, entering a clear short-term directional selection phase. From the structure perspective, the price repeatedly tests the upper resistance but has not yet formed an effective breakout; on the downside, there is continuous buying support. If it continues to consolidate over the weekend, focus on two areas: 🔹 2700–2740: Upper resistance zone A breakout and stabilization here is needed to have a chance to test higher levels. 🔹 2650–2625: Lower support zone If broken, the short-term structure may weaken further. What needs to be avoided now is chasing gains or selling off in the middle of the range. My short position has been held for nearly a week, with an average price of 2562, currently floating at a loss of over 5,000U. Rather than adding more positions, it’s better to wait for the price to truly choose a direction before managing the position. The most dangerous place in the market right now is not the lack of opportunity, but that volatility appears calm yet may suddenly amplify. Over the weekend, focus on the two key levels: 2625 / 2700. #ETH #BTC #Crypto #OKX #Trading📊 $BTC Inflows of 2.8 Billion Over 6 Days: ETF Has Recovered the First Half's Deficit Over 6 trading days, the US Bitcoin spot ETF saw a net inflow of about $2.8 billion. The same group of products was still down $5.5 billion at the end of June. This is not just a slogan; it's a fact confirmed by Farside and SoSoValue. 1. Where the money came from From September 17 to 24, there were net subscriptions for 6 consecutive trading days. On September 21, a single-day peak of $999 million was reached, marking the largest single-day inflow in 2026. BlackRock's IBIT alone took in about $1.35 billion, nearly half of the total for these 6 days. Fidelity's FBTC followed closely. 2. How the ledger turned around In the first half of this year, the spot ETF once had a net outflow exceeding $5 billion. Near the mid-July low point, the cumulative loss for the year was still about $5.7 billion. After pouring in $2.8 billion over these 6 days, the annual net inflow returned to a range of about $780 million to $880 million. August saw an inflow of about $3.5 billion for the whole month, and by the time of writing in September, it has exceeded $2.5 billion. Institutions are not just shouting slogans; they are replenishing positions through compliant channels. 3. Price did not keep pace On the day with the strongest inflow, BTC touched $87,000 intraday. In the following 3 trading days, inflows dropped from $715 million and $347 million to $191 million, a decline of over 80%. The coin price also fell from the high to around $83,000 to $84,000. Continuous inflows remain, but the momentum has clearly slowed. One pitfall to clarify: Continuous net inflows over 6 days do not mean another $1 billion will come tomorrow. ETF is an institutional allocation tool, not a perpetual motion machine. The drop from $999 million to $191 million in a single day shows the pulse buying is fading. Translating "continuous inflows" directly as "imminent new highs" is mistaking a weather vane for an accelerator. When the fisherman looks at this kind of data, he only remembers three things: How long the inflows last, whether the main force is still concentrated in IBIT, and whether the daily numbers are continuously shrinking. The first two are still true this round; the third has changed. $2.8 billion can cover the first half's deficit, indicating that money in compliant channels still recognizes BTC. Recognition aside, positions should still be managed according to one's own risk tolerance, not leveraged based on news headlines. In these 6 days, do you believe institutions are accumulating or is this the last wave before selling off? #BTC #BitcoinSpotETF #IBIT #InstitutionalFunds #CryptoMarket #BTC现货ETF连续6日吸金超28亿美元 $BTC SNDK made a quick spike to 1787 today, and no one dared to follow the wave at 1814. Yesterday's low was 1727, the high was 1814, and it closed at 1768. Today it opened near 1768, peaked at 1787 but didn't break through, the low was 1761, and the current price is about 1772. The volume ratio shrank again compared to yesterday, after the upward surge it is still fluctuating. There is still resistance between 1787 and 1814 above; only above that is 1906. If it breaks below 1761, it’s likely to see 1727 first; if that level can't hold either, the short term may look for space down to 1618. In the short term, watch if the current price around 1772 can hold. If it can't hold, treat it as a digestion phase coming down from 1906, and don't chase at this price. For those already holding, watch if the low of 1761 today can support; if not, consider reducing positions. For those looking to buy the dip, wait for a pullback and reconsider if it can't break through 1814; don't catch a falling knife in midair. $SNDK 🎙️ BTC ETF attracted nearly 3 billion in seven days, yet the price fell below 84,000 — this question isn't over The most counterintuitive scene today: The US BTC spot ETF has had net inflows for 7 consecutive days, totaling about 2.98 billion USD over the week; but BTC instead dropped back to 83,900, ETH is hovering around 2688, and the fear and greed index remains at 74 (greed). Money is flowing in, but the price isn't rising. What does this mean? It's not that there are no buyers, but long-term interest rates are too harsh: 10Y US Treasury at 5.18%, 30Y at 5.47%, raising the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets. ETF inflows represent institutional base positions, not retail chasing rallies. On-chain and contracts are deleveraging, options skew turned defensive this week, smart money is buying protection. Having created content for years, I fear this kind of "fundamentals look good, price looks weak" market the most. Greed index 74 + US Treasury yields breaking 5% = not suitable for high leverage, better to do your homework. The true value of KOLs is not to urge you to rush in, but to remind you: A bull market doesn't mean rising every day, but that you survive until liquidity truly returns. Personal opinion, not investment advice. DYOR, don't put your living expenses into contracts. You really hit the nail on the head with that soul-searching question — *what if $79K never comes back?* Right now, 80% of the market is waiting for $79K, $75K, or even $66K. Peter Brandt even said he wants to get back in at $65K-$66K. But you're right, BTC went from $74,955.5 to $87,399 without giving a second chance. *From the options market perspective, you're right about $90K, and there's data to back it up:* 1. *Today, $15.9 billion in options expire, with $85K as the biggest pain point* — for every 1% drop below, there's a $142 million buy wall, so $84,132 is being defended tightly. After expiration, the short sellers' suppression will be lifted. 2. *Above $90K is a vacuum zone + a short sellers' graveyard* — you previously said there was only $2B in liquidations between $87K-$90K, but on options, $90K has a $226 million sell wall plus a large amount of Calls. Prices tend to target areas with the least liquidity but the most stop losses. Going to $90K to trigger the stop losses of $90K Call sellers and shorts is easier than going down to trigger $5.2B below. 3. *$2.84 billion ETF inflows over 6 days have changed the game* — for the whole of July, it was still -$5.8 billion, now it's +$800 million. BlackRock IBIT is still buying $1.16 billion per week; $79K is their cost zone, and they won't let you get in easily at $79K. They are the ones who pulled it up from $79K. I am the mid-term intelligence guy. This wave of $ETH intelligence shows fundamentals are "institution + regulation" both favorable, but there are undercurrents in the capital flow. Positive aspects: ETFs have accumulated 3.1 billion in three months, with BlackRock leading; SEC clearly states that staked tokens are not securities, LST sees major easing. ARK and JPMorgan accelerate RWA tokenization, over half of stablecoins settle on ETH, plus consensus speed increased 4-8 times, the long-term base is very solid. Challenges: There are significant concerns. $XRP has grabbed the second largest market cap, Hyperliquid's revenue has surpassed, on-chain stablecoins have zero growth in a year. More severe is Bitfinex shorts surged 80 times in two weeks, 2 billion options expiring combined with a single-day spot outflow of 250 million, short-term selling pressure is heavy. Intelligence guy's perspective: The long-term ecosystem is unbeatable, but short-term is suppressed by macro and shorts. Mid-term recommendation is to hold the base position, add in batches after the pullback stabilizes, and avoid clashing hard with macro liquidity. $BTC #BTC现货ETF连续6日吸金超28亿美元 #美债长端利率持续攀升，融资压力升温 XAU today had a spike at 4296, then surged briefly, but no one dared to follow the wave at 4311. Yesterday's low was 4256, the high was 4311, and it closed at 4288. Today it opened near 4288, peaked at 4296 without breaking through, bottomed at 4278, and the current price is about 4282. The volume ratio shrank again compared to yesterday; after the upward surge, it slid back down. There is still resistance between 4296 and 4311, and only above that is 4369 to 4429. If 4278 breaks again on the downside, it’s likely to test 4256 first; if that level also fails to hold, the short term may look for space around 4248. In the short term, watch if the current price around 4282 can hold. If it can’t hold, consider it as still digesting the drop from 4429 and don’t chase at this price. For those already holding, watch if the low at 4278 today can support; if not, consider reducing positions. For those looking to buy the dip, wait for a pullback and see if 4311 can be broken before considering, don’t catch a falling knife in mid-air. $XAU 🕶️ MARKET CHECK The market feels like a pond with barely any waves right now... But my $BTC position is still sitting at **~85x profit**, while $ETH is around **~18x** — and the gains are still secured in the account. 💰 The bigger trend hasn’t given a clear breakdown yet, so I’m letting the positions breathe instead of rushing for the exit. Meanwhile, $DOGE and $ONE shorts are becoming increasingly stressful. Margin is getting tighter, and every small altcoin bounce can squeeze shorts aggressiDogecoin in September turned a phrase into reality: ETFs will die, but coins won't. On September 10, Bitwise announced the liquidation of its Dogecoin ETF (BWOW), a product that had been listed for less than ten months, with net assets remaining only $687,000 and continuous net outflows. Eleven days later, DOGE surged from $0.087 to above $0.10, rising about 14% in a single day, with trading volume expanding to $3.2 billion, roughly three times the usual. This scenario is hard to imagine happening with Bitcoin. BTC's pricing power hangs on institutional channels, and ETF subscription and redemption data can rewrite the market; whereas all DOGE spot ETFs combined have only attracted about $10 million cumulatively, so whether they liquidate or not has no weight on the market. The spark on September 21 was not from Wall Street either—Platform X launched cashtag trading functionality, community sentiment warmed up, and spot ETFs saw net inflows of about $900,000 that day, not even a fraction. $DOGE's value anchor is not in institutional hands. Its foundation consists of three things: a community built over twelve years, liquidity depth on mainstream exchanges, and Elon Musk as a fuse that can ignite at any time. Institutional channels are a bonus for it, not a lifeline. A coin that can self-sustain through community and liquidity, without relying on institutions, is not at risk but resilient.Another altcoin ETF is just one step away. The NYSE Arca segment has approved Bitwise's NEAR spot ETF listing. This asset management company completed its share registration on September 24, leaving only the final step before the official launch. If successfully launched, it will be the first spot ETF linked to NEAR in the United States. The ETF trend is replicating from Bitcoin and Ethereum to smaller market cap public chains. For capital, it means an additional compliant entry channel; for NEAR, the real test is whether the approval benefit can turn into sustained buying pressure. The approval is just a ticket; a ticket does not equal buying pressure, which depends on subscription data in the first few weeks after listing. $CL Post｜Understanding the US approach to dealing with Middle Eastern adversaries through a major Syrian criminal case, and also understanding the US-Iran game. The Los Angeles Federal Court sentenced Alsheikh from Syria to 60 years in prison. The most special aspect of this case is not the length of the sentence, but the way the arrest and trial were conducted. There was no Syrian extradition, no international special tribunal. This person stumbled simply because he lied on the US immigration naturalization form. The US prosecutor seized this immigration fraud to directly initiate the trial and impose a heavy sentence. This logic applies not only to Syria but also to individuals related to Iran. This is the US's long-arm jurisdiction: no need for war, no need for negotiation, as long as individuals related to the Iranian camp want to apply for US visas, green cards, or citizenship and conceal their past records, they will leave criminal liabilities. The biggest difficulty in US-Iran negotiations has never been a single event but structural contradictions. Nuclear issues, regional proxy confrontations, and huge differences in demands between the two sides. Besides economic sanctions, the US now adds personal judicial accountability as a card. Continuous targeted deterrence constantly raises the risks of overseas activities for individuals related to Iran, further compressing the space for mutual trust. This means: the probability of US-Iran talks failing remains high. The Middle East geopolitical risk premium will continue to exist, and as long as subsequent frictions escalate, oil prices have potential upward pressure. Individual cases will not immediately trigger conflict, but they clearly show that besides war and sanctions, the US also has the weapon of law for long-term strategic competition. #Trump reportedly rejects the 7-day plan, Hormuz reopening again 🏦 $BTC | FOLLOW THE FLOW ETF demand is still positive — but the momentum is slowing. $999M → $715M → $347M → $191M Four straight sessions of declining inflows.

The most common reason revealed in public post-mortems is the compromise of hot wallet private keys or signing permissions. Coincheck lost about $530 million in 2018, KuCoin about $280 million in 2020, and Bitmart about $150 million in 2021, all pointing to the compromise of online hot wallet keys. Another category involves bypassing multisig and signing interfaces: Bitfinex in 2016 was related to the multisig scheme at the time; WazirX in 2024 experienced multisig control being altered; Bybit was hacked in February 2025, among others. Additionally, there are breaches in supply chain and operations, such as compromised signer devices, wallet service providers, or internal permissions being exploited.a16z: 86% of RWA perpetual contract volume has been completed on-chain. The latest data from a16z gives an interesting signal for RWA: in August, the trading volume of RWA perpetual contracts reached $117.3 billion, a 44-fold year-on-year increase, of which 86% has already moved on-chain, about $101 billion; open interest also reached $4.8 billion. Personally, I think the truly important part of this news is not the $117.3 billion, but the "86% on-chain". This means RWA is moving from simple asset tokenization to real on-chain trading. Previously, discussions about RWA focused more on tokenizing government bonds, gold, and stocks; now the market is beginning to directly trade on-chain derivatives of these assets. The transmission logic is: traditional assets tokenized on-chain → perpetual contracts emerge → trading demand grows → liquidity migrates on-chain → demand for on-chain derivatives infrastructure increases → DEXs, public chains, oracles, and stablecoins gain incremental growth. More notably, early RWA perpetual contracts were mainly concentrated on CEXs, but by August this year, on-chain platforms accounted for 86% of the trading volume. a16z believes this shift corresponds clearly in timing with infrastructure upgrades like Hyperliquid's HIP-3. My personal judgment is that the real second phase of RWA may not be "more assets tokenized on-chain," but "assets being traded, staked, and composited after being tokenized." This is the key step for RWA to move from asset digitization to financial infrastructure. In trading, I will focus on: RWA trading volume → on-chain ratio → open interest → DEX flow *Bitcoin Latest News September 26 Evening Chinese Version* *Current Price $84,132 | Range $83,174 - $84,715 | Today +0.03%* *1.

But now the story has turned again. Reports today say Trump rejected Iran's proposed 7-day framework, although Tehran is still waitingMany people think the hardest part of the altcoin season is buying coins, but the real difficulty is selling them. Last year I made a mistake: with a 100% floating profit, I thought it could still rise; at 200% floating profit, I started fantasizing about financial freedom; finally, when it retraced by half, profits shrank and my mindset collapsed. This round, I set three rules for myself. First, don’t predict the top, just execute take-profit. When profits reach the target, sell a portion and pocket the gains. Second, sell in batches, not all at once. When the market is crazy, always keep some position and some cash. Third, don’t chase highs out of FOMO. The fastest rises are often the riskiest phases. In a bull market, making money depends on holding; in altcoin season, preserving wealth depends on discipline. Many make a million, but not so many leave with a million. In this cycle, I’d rather earn 20% less at the end than experience a 50% drawdown. When are you planning to start taking profits? Or do you intend to hold until the cycle ends? Follow me, I will share more practical trading content.$ETH — Short Setup 👀📉 The size of the current long exposure is definitely eye-catching: around $1.29B in total long positions, with roughly $55.07M in unrealized profit. At first glance, $55M sounds enormous. But the percentage tells a completely different story. Against a $1.29B position, that paper profit works out to only around 4.3%. In other words, the absolute profit looks huge because the position itself is huge — the actual cushion is relatively thin. The numbers also line up closely w$USELESS has been stuck around $0.30 for nearly two weeks—and that weakness is telling. After topping at $0.31377, it slipped to $0.28098.

My $ETH short has been hanging around for almost a week. Average entry was around $2,562, while ETH is now hovering near $2,685, leaving the position with a floating loss of roughly 5,000U+.

According to the usual script, with risk-free rates this high, risk assets should crash. But BTC? 83,988, steady. Why no crash? Three reasons: First, on 9.24 there was a $1.9 billion liquidation, so leverage has been cleared out; those wanting to sell have no positions left. Second, on Friday $15.6 billion in options expired, removing market makers’ Gamma squeeze pressure. Third, **32,700 BTC flowed out of exchanges in the past two days, worth $3.3 billion** — institutions are buying. Looking at the structure: BTC’s market cap dominance dropped to 58.15%, ENA rose 15% in one day, and XRP and SOL continue to catch up. This is a typical mid-bull market feature — BTC takes a breather, funds look for elasticity. My judgment: 83,000-85,000 is a bottoming range, after which it will go up. The 5.5% Treasury yield is scary, but subtracting 4.6% inflation expectations, the real rate is under 1%. Institutions aren’t dumb; their buying at this level shows 83,000 isn’t expensive.

The market is still carrying a strong bullish sentiment, and that’s exactly why I’m watching for a possible pullback rather than blindly chasing the upside. Why am I shorting? BTC pushed above $87K, but failed to sustain the breakout and quickly returned below $85K. The rally also coincided with heavy short liquidations, so I’m treating part of that move as a possible squeeze rather than assuming it was the beginning of another straight-line rally. Now B$META Why can META remain relatively strong in a high interest rate environment? The market is raising revenue expectations for AI agents, ad conversions, and business collaborations. Compared to pure infrastructure investments, improvements in advertising efficiency are more likely to impact the profit and loss statement. If user engagement, revenue per user, and profit margins rise simultaneously, the investment will form a closed loop; if costs grow faster than revenue, I would revise my judgment downward. In the last altcoin season, altcoins just withered; there was no real breakout throughout the entire cycle. BTC is the anchor of the crypto world, no dispute there, but personally, I think the red flowers also need green leaves to complement them. Without new things coming in, the enthusiasm dissipates. For the crypto space to develop well, it ultimately needs a continuous influx of newcomers and fresh capital; without attractiveness and wealth-creating ability, it will slowly wither. This cycle, everyone has lost hope, yet the index has quietly reached 74, just one breath away from 75 (meaning many altcoins have recently significantly outperformed BTC, which also implies the altcoin market is entering a risk zone). Of course, the preset value of 75 may not be entirely reasonable, but at least it indicates: the market is starting to come alive in areas everyone least expected. Now the fear is that it will be the same old script as last time—the altcoin index heats up, BTC sucks the blood, or directly slashes it. Whether this time will be different, I’m not sure. My own altcoin allocation is very small, but I still hope for an altcoin season breakout. BTC shouldn’t dance alone; everyone should make money. Let’s just watch for now. Stablecoin new regulations advance, accelerating payment and settlement implementation. On September 24, the Federal Reserve announced two stablecoin regulatory proposals, beginning further implementation of the GENIUS Act, focusing on reserve assets, capital requirements, risk management, and the specific process for banks to apply for issuing payment stablecoins. I believe the truly important aspect this time is not just another set of regulatory rules, but that stablecoins are gradually moving from "crypto market trading tools" into the traditional payment and banking settlement systems. The transmission logic is very clear: regulatory framework clarified → clear threshold for banks to issue stablecoins → institutional compliance participation → stablecoins enter payment and settlement → increased on-chain fund flows → increased demand for payment infrastructure. This trend has already begun to materialize. Recently, SoFi has used SoFiUSD on the Mastercard network for credit and debit card transaction settlements, with an expected annualized transaction volume exceeding $25 billion. Therefore, what I care about more is not the short-term issuance volume of any single stablecoin, but whether the "payment and settlement scale" can continue to rise. If bank stablecoin issuance increases, enterprises start using stablecoins for settlement, and cross-border payment scale expands, then the beneficiaries will not only be USDC and USDT, but the entire stablecoin payment infrastructure, including public chains, wallets, custody, compliance, and PayFi. My personal judgment is that stablecoins are entering an important stage: in the past, exchanges and DeFi were the main demand, now payment and settlement may become new incremental sources. Transaction sequence: regulatory implementation → bank issuance → payment and settlement → stableAs you get older, the feelings become stronger. Even if you buy $QQQ and $BTC, the closer you are to short-term market fluctuations and the more market information you receive, the worse your happiness experience becomes. Don't bring trouble upon yourself.
