#Strategy repurchased about $139 million STRC At first glance, the Bitcoin headline is easy to misunderstand, making it seem like Strategy is making a big purchase spree, but actually, most of the money spent is not on "buying coins" but on "fixing the plumbing." Let's look at the numbers: $208 million was spent on repurchasing STRC, while only $65.5 million was spent on buying 811 bitcoins. The repurchase amount is more than three times the amount spent on buying coins. Looking back a week earlier, from October 19 to 25, STRC repurchases totaled $205 million, and not a single bitcoin was bought. What is STRC? Simply put, it is a kind of "high-yield IOU" issued by Strategy — a perpetual preferred stock with no maturity date. The company does not have to repay the principal but must continuously pay dividends. It is designed to keep its price near $100, attracting those who want stable returns but do not want to directly bear Bitcoin's volatility with a double-digit dividend yield. Strategy uses this money to accumulate Bitcoin, effectively using "fixed-cost IOUs" to support "highly volatile assets." The problem arose when STRC fell below its $100 par value. Once the price broke below that, this financing channel was blocked — the company's own rules prohibit issuing new STRC below $100, effectively turning off the faucet. So this series of large repurchases has a very direct purpose: to prop up STRC's price back near $100 and reopen the financing channel. $BTC Follow DagePanic premium has retreated 😮‍💨 The panic premium after the hacker incident has retreated! Put options are no longer as expensive 📊 CoinDesk: After the Binance incident, BTC's 25-delta skew (how much more expensive put options are compared to call options) surged but has since cooled down. 📈 BTC trading volume rose about 37%, ETH about 83%, but open interest barely changed. 💡 Rising volume with unchanged open interest indicates more turnover of existing positions rather than new leverage. 🔍 This is one interpretation of derivatives data, not necessarily a conclusion. The cooling skew suggests panic is easing, but it doesn't indicate direction; I'm uncertain and might be wrong. 📍 The levels I'm watching: • $78,800: Resistance above BTC • $76,141: Support low for BTC • Whether the skew continues to fall Do you think the retreat of panic in the options market signals a bottom? $BTC $ETH #CanBTCHold80K #USMidtermsPolicyOutlook #AppleQ4iPhone18Outlook $BTC $ETH $OKB 科技巨头AI军备竞赛持续升温,自由现金流加速恶化,而存储芯片制造商却在悄然积累现金。野村证券认为,当前市场对存储板块的定价存在根本性误判,存储板块构成科技组合中难得的“避风港”。 五大科技公司三季度财报相继出炉,AI投资意愿不减反增,但各公司资金实力开始出现分化。Meta单季度自由现金流首次自IPO以来转负,录得-21亿美元;Alphabet连续两个季度为负,达-91亿美元;Amazon滚动12个月自由现金流缺口扩大至-424亿美元。与此同时,存储芯片厂商现金持续积累,据野村估算,以三星电子和SK海力士为代表的韩国存储“双雄”2027年预期市盈率仅约2-3倍,较科技巨头折价85-90%。 AI投资意志坚定,但资金耐力开始分化 企业级AI投资已演变为一种生存性需求,各公司正动用经营性现金流、债务与股权多渠道筹资。三季度中,仅Microsoft自由现金流保持正值,录得+186亿美元;Alphabet已于今年6月宣布800亿美元股权融资并暂停回购;Meta发行无投票权C类新股,同样叫停回购;Amazon年内长期债务规模升至约1075亿美元。资本市场的反应直接反映了投资者的偏好——现金流为正的On the first day Binance reopened withdrawals, $4.65 billion was withdrawn, but only $1.01 billion returned, resulting in a net outflow of $3.64 billion. According to CoinDesk's report today, Binance began phased withdrawal resumption on Sunday, and this is the ledger for the first day. The exchange also announced: about 95% of the $6.3 billion stolen has been recovered, and the FBI officially attributed this theft to the North Korean group TraderTraitor. Ironically, the money left, but the market didn’t collapse. CoinGecko’s real-time check: BTC current price $77,592, down 0.43% in 24 hours; ETH at $2,278.42, up 0.58%; BNB at $702.23, down 1.69%, hovering near its 24-hour low. I think this isn’t a bank run, but a “verification withdrawal” — big holders first withdraw to check if they can get their money out, which actually feels more reassuring than locking it up. If it were a real run, BNB wouldn’t only drop 1.69%, and BTC wouldn’t still hold above $77,000. Key levels to clarify: the $714.66 mark above BNB is the 24-hour high; only if it recovers above this can we say the aftershocks are over; if it breaks below the $700 whole number support and fails to recover, my “verification withdrawal, not a run” theory is invalid. Which side do you choose: is this $3.64 billion a vote with users’ feet, or will it be redeposited after verification? $BNB $BTC #BinanceWithdrawals #BinanceHackerAftermath#US stocks and gold and silver fall sharply in sync, safe-haven capital flows diverge The market begins cross-asset broad deleveraging, with stocks, gold, silver, and cryptocurrencies collectively under pressure, showing broad-spectrum risk aversion characteristics. The S&P 500 fell 3.42%, the Nasdaq plunged 4.12%; gold dropped 2.8%, silver fell 4.6%, ending the previous rebound; BTC fell below the $77,000 mark, ETH's decline was significantly greater than the broader market due to high leverage combined with DeFi liquidations. The core driver is sticky inflation and strengthened rate hike expectations: October CPI remains high, the 10-year US Treasury yield approaches 4.95%, and the US dollar index rises to 106.7. The market bets that high interest rates will persist longer, investors' cash holdings increased 44% month-on-month, US Treasuries become the core capital destination, and the traditional "stocks down, gold up" safe-haven logic temporarily fails. Additional pressure on crypto assets: domestic US institutional funds are withdrawing, BTC spot ETFs see large single-day net outflows; in a high-interest environment, miners' unit hash rate revenue plummets, and selling pressure continues to release. The current deleveraging process is not yet over, a slight rebound is not a sign of stabilization, and liquidity exhaustion weakens the effectiveness of support levels. It is not advisable to blindly bottom-fish before the nonfarm payroll data release; priority should be given to controlling positions and preserving cash. $BTC $ETH Top-10 turnover was $874M tonight and $622M sat in two names: BTC $357.6M, ETH $264.2M. The other eight all under $60M. Majors held flat, small caps did not: NEAR -6.8%, TRUMP -5.7%, PEPE -1.6%. ETH +0.9% against BTC -0.2% is rotation inside the top two, not a fresh bid. I am waiting until volume spreads beyond the majors. Two choices: buy the ETH/BTC tick, or wait for breadth? $BTC $ETH #OKXOrbit #Crypto Crypto is high-risk. Personal observation only, not investment advice. DYOR.This week, the main focus has shifted from the crypto circle to AI earnings reports 📊. The three major cloud providers' Q3 reports share a common signal: revenue is still growing, but free cash flow continues to be consumed by capital expenditures. On-chain US stock contracts have already priced in this expectation. $xINTC Intel is the first to encounter problems ⚠️: earnings missed expectations, recording the worst single-day performance in fifty years. The AI dividend is not shared by everyone; laggards will be swiftly punished by capital. $CXMT Micron's on-chain perpetual contract reported 907, higher than Friday's after-hours 889 📈. During the storage price increase cycle, capital chooses to take positions early; $xAMD's on-chain 513 is also higher than after-hours, but the data center revenue proportion is the key point, and earnings week volatility may be amplified. $xNVDA Nvidia's on-chain 204.8 is almost at the after-hours price 😐, indicating the market has not yet added new expectations and will wait for the earnings report to price in. On-chain quotes can jump ahead of Monday, but can still be withdrawn before the earnings report. #美国中期选举在即,哪些结果值得关注? #苹果新CEO迎来iPhone18首份成绩单 #非农来袭,12月加息会否生变? Several Federal Reserve officials have collectively taken a hawkish stance, with Logan explicitly stating at least two more 25bp hikes within the year. The market pricing for a December rate hike has already exceeded 70%. High interest rates are not a sudden negative shock but rather a slow blade that extends the period of elevated rates and raises the cost of leveraged funds, making the market prone to repeated oscillations and a pattern of long-short harvesting. The November 6 nonfarm payrolls report is the next key policy trigger. Analysis should not rely solely on the new employment data but must also consider average hourly wage growth, unemployment rate, and revisions to previous data for a comprehensive judgment. Strong employment and wages will further boost tightening expectations, pushing US Treasury yields higher and suppressing risk assets; a clear weakening in employment could ease rate pressures and drive a rebound in crypto assets. In trading, beware of the "buy the rumor, sell the fact" trap. The initial volatility after data release is often liquidity shocks caused by algorithmic stop-loss sweeps, so blind chasing is not recommended. Prioritize waiting for the 15-minute candlestick structure to stabilize, then confirm direction with US Treasury and dollar correlation signals before entering. Key references: BTC support at 76000, resistance at 81000; gold support at 3900, resistance at 4020. Strict position control and relaxed stop-losses during the nonfarm night; avoid heavy bets on a single outcome. $BTC $ETH $SOL Tonight's top-10 trading turnover reached $874M, but here's the interesting part: $622M came from just two assets. - $BTC : $357.6M - $ETH : $264.2M - The remaining eight assets: All below $60M each. Meanwhile, major coins remained relatively stable, while smaller assets continued facing selling pressure. - $NEAR: -6.8% - $TRUMP: -5.7% - $PEPE: -1.6% Interestingly, $ETH gained 0.9% while $BTC slipped 0.2%. This looks more like capital rotation between the two major assets than a genuine market-Storage-chip weakness is spilling into the broader risk conversation, and the temptation to call a bottom is rising faster than the evidence justifies. $SNDK kept sliding into the open, while the memory complex that leaned on Hynix a day earlier finally absorbed its catch-up leg. $MU and $SNDK both retreated to their July "wall," wiping out the prior recovery in one session. That is not a base; it is a retest of a level the market has already broken once. The setup now splits into two paths. If 🔥For BTC to truly break out into a sustained trend, the key might not be who wins the US election, but when the US dollar liquidity eases! 😮 There is a lot of market discussion about the midterm elections now, but I believe it shouldn't be treated as the sole variable determining the direction of the crypto market. 📉Changes in congressional control could indeed affect budget, regulation, and debt negotiations, but the US fiscal deficit and debt financing needs won't automatically decrease just because the election is over. Policy differences between the two parties do not mean the overall direction of the US economy will suddenly undergo fundamental changes. 💰On November 4th, the Treasury will announce its quarterly refinancing plan. I prefer to focus here: how much financing is planned for the next quarter? Will the scale of Treasury issuance be adjusted? Are there changes in the allocation between short-term and medium-to-long-term Treasuries? How much cash will the Treasury General Account (TGA) maintain? 📊These factors will influence the market's judgment on supply and demand for funds. Especially when Treasury supply is large and funds are absorbed into the Treasury account, market liquidity may be affected temporarily. But it’s not as simple as more bond issuance meaning BTC must fall; we also need to observe changes in Fed and banking system liquidity. 🧭What I have always focused on is the relationship between debt financing and liquidity, not just guessing election outcomes. For BTC to shake off pressure, ultimately it depends on whether the funding environment improves. The November 4th announcement is worth serious study. Do you think it could become a key catalyst for the market this week? #美国中期选举在即,哪些结果值得关注? 🔥No matter how lively the midterm elections are, they don't necessarily change the core pricing logic of BTC! What truly deserves attention is how the U.S. Treasury plans to borrow money next, how it arranges debt issuance, and where the funds will flow.😐 📊My view is that elections impact more on policy expectations and short-term sentiment. Regardless of how congressional seats change, the long-term U.S. debt, fiscal deficit, and interest payment pressures remain and won't disappear just because the election is over. If the market only focuses on which party wins, it might actually overlook more important funding issues. 💰On November 4, the Treasury will release its quarterly refinancing announcement, which is the key event I’m focusing on this week. The scale of financing, the maturity structure of government bonds, and cash balance arrangements could all affect the market’s judgment on future supply and demand of funds. Especially important is whether the Treasury needs to maintain a high cash reserve and whether subsequent financing needs continue to expand. 🌍BTC is not an asset completely independent of the traditional financial system. U.S. dollar liquidity, real interest rates, government bond yields, and institutional risk appetite all influence whether funds are willing to enter the crypto market. ⚠️However, debt size cannot be directly equated with liquidity tightening. There is a complex transmission between Treasury bond issuance, TGA account changes, and the Federal Reserve’s balance sheet. My focus is not on predicting a specific number but on observing whether the funding environment has truly improved. No rush to bet on the election direction tonight; let’s wait for more clues from the Treasury on November 4. Do you think BTC’s next market cycle needs to wait more for policy changes or a liquidity turning point?在交易市场里,有一个很讽刺的现象:很多人复盘时眼光毒辣,看得懂大趋势、分得清强弱,可实盘账户始终很难上一个大台阶。不是看不懂行情,而是潜意识里,一直在挑选“舒服的机会”,主动避开那些真正能带来大额收益的机会。 什么是舒服的机会?就是确定性看起来很高、心理压力很小的交易。比如行情已经走出一段明确上涨,回调一小段,看着跌不动了就接多;价格反复在支撑位碰好几次,觉得这里跌不下去,轻仓试多。这类机会看着安全,进场之后短期很少立刻扫损,做起来心里踏实,做完很快就能看到一点浮盈。 这种单子的特点很清晰:胜率好看,盈亏比偏低。 价格已经走出来一部分,剩余的空间被压缩,向上的潜在利润有限,一旦行情破位,亏损并不会小。你一笔一笔慢慢积累小盈利,遇上一次突发插针、消息冲击或者结构破位,几笔的利润一次性回吐,甚至倒亏。长期循环下来,账户就是原地来回震荡,很难实现突破性增长。 而那些能把账户拉开差距的机会,往往从入场那一刻就让人难受。 它通常有几个特征:位置逆着短期情绪、盘面争议巨大、进场的时候市场充斥两种完全相反的声音,K线形态并不规整,入场之后要忍受长时间的浮亏震荡,止损距离会比普通单子更宽。很多人扫一眼🔥Don't put all your attention on the US midterm elections; what BTC really needs might not be who wins, but when market liquidity improves!📉 The market has been buzzing about the election results these days, but personally, I don't think a change in congressional seats can immediately alter the long-term fiscal and economic direction of the US. 📊 The Republican and Democratic parties do have different stances on taxes, spending, and regulation, but the deeper issues are the long-term US debt pressure, fiscal deficit, and government bond financing needs. Elections may affect the pace of policy implementation, but it's hard to directly resolve these structural contradictions. 💰 So, I am more focused on the Treasury's quarterly refinancing announcement on November 4. How much financing the US will need next, whether there are changes in the structure of government bond issuance, and how much cash the Treasury plans to hold—these data will influence the market's judgment on supply and demand of funds. 🌍 BTC is still largely influenced by US dollar liquidity and risk appetite. Institutional allocation, spot demand, and funding costs all need to be considered. We can't simply attribute every drop to options expiration, nor assume institutions will never reduce positions because of high costs. ⚠️ It is important to note that the scale of government bond issuance is only part of the liquidity puzzle; TGA fund flows, Federal Reserve policies, and bank reserves are equally important. My view is clear: elections can be followed, but should not overshadow everything else. The Treasury announcement on November 4 is the key variable to watch this week. Do you agree? #美国中期选举在即,哪些结果值得关注? #Palantir财报前瞻:Can high growth support a high valuation? AI software leader Palantir reported after market close on Monday. The current core issue is the match between explosive growth and a hundredfold valuation, which is also a key validation point for this round of AI commercialization sentiment. The market consensus expects Q3 revenue of $2.18 billion, an 85% year-over-year increase, and EPS of $0.41, doubling from last year. Last quarter, the company’s revenue grew 93% year-over-year, with the US commercial segment growing as high as 149%, and both government orders and B2B demand booming. However, the forward P/E ratio is approaching 100 times, far exceeding the S&P 500 average of 19 times. Optimistic expectations are fully priced in, leaving very little room for error in performance. The market is closely watching two major signals: whether the US commercial business growth can continue at a high base, and whether the Q4 guidance will be further raised. Once growth slows, the high valuation will face a rapid correction. As a benchmark for AI commercialization, its earnings report will influence overall market risk appetite: missing expectations will suppress tech stock sentiment and intensify liquidity sell-offs, potentially dragging down crypto assets; exceeding expectations will help restore risk appetite, providing a breathing room for BTC. $PLTR $BTC Monday's rebound does not mean the bearish market is over. Last week, BTC spot ETFs saw a net outflow of about $202 million, and ETH spot ETFs had a net outflow of about $431 million. Especially for ETH, funds have been withdrawing for several consecutive trading days, indicating that institutions are actively reducing their risk exposure. The macro environment is also challenging. Inflation in the U.S. remains high, economic data shows resilience, and market expectations for a rate hike in December continue to rise. Coupled with the Bank of Japan signaling a hawkish stance, short-term liquidity is unlikely to ease quickly. So even if the market rebounds today, I still view it as an oversold correction. BTC is repeatedly contesting the $78,000 level, with some support below, but only by firmly holding above key resistance and sustained ETF fund inflows can a confirmed strengthening be established. ETH's rebound strength is currently moderate; before ETF capital outflows improve, it is still prone to follow BTC's pullback. ZEC shows significantly stronger resilience, recovering quickly after a dip, but this highly volatile market is more driven by short-term funds, rising fast but also falling sharply, so chasing after rallies is not advisable. Currently, the bearish factors have not disappeared; it's just a pause after continuous declines. Shorting here risks a rebound, while going long lacks fund confirmation. My approach remains to wait: for BTC, to see if it can hold above resistance; for ETH, to see if ETF outflows stop; and for ZEC, to focus on guarding against sharp pullbacks after rallies.$HYPE brothers, I got into HYPE early and got stuck in the position. Now I'm closely watching the key level at 85. I feel there is still some support around here; as long as 85 holds steady, this round of shakeout will be over, and there will be opportunities to push higher afterward. Looking at the liquidation data, most recent liquidations have been long positions getting flushed out, indicating that the main force is using the volatility to sweep out chasing high positions, cleaning the market before moving up. If 85 holds, the first target is to break 88, then focus on the 90 level. If volume breaks through 90, the market will open up, and reaching the previous high of 100 won't be a dream. But we also need to prepare for the worst. If the 85 support is broken decisively, it means my analysis was wrong. Don't stubbornly hold on; cut losses decisively and exit to avoid deeper losses. Also, be cautious of large holders unstaking, which creates selling pressure risk. Even if there is a rebound later, watch the volume closely and exit immediately if the price drifts down steadily. Midday Market Watch: There is a rebound, but funds have not truly returned. $BTC 78,145, price has risen but lacks volume support, more like short covering. After Binance resumed withdrawals, a net outflow of 3.6 billion occurred; the market is temporarily holding up under pressure, whether 78,000 can hold steady remains key. $ETH 2,240, the rebound is noticeably weaker than BTC, 2200 is a short-term important defense line, losing it may lead to further decline. $SOL 94.84, after breaking below 100, it has yet to recover; on-chain performance has improved, but the price still lacks capital driving it. $RE 0.37, trading is light, the positive narrative in the insurance sector has yet to attract funds. $OKB 111, platform partnership news continues, but the price remains weak; short-term trend has its own logic. Key Observation: BTC is trying to stabilize, but altcoins have not followed suit. A true reversal requires confirmation from both volume and capital inflow. #FederalReserve #CryptoMarket #BTC #USMidtermsPolicyOutlook #苹果新CEO迎来iPhone18首份成绩单 The new CEO, Tim Cook's successor, will release the first financial report after taking office today after the market closes. Market expectations are for revenue of $113.4 billion, with a core focus on holiday season guidance and the market performance of the iPhone 18, marking the first official performance report after the new phone's launch. Product side is mixed: The price increase strategy supports the revenue base, the iPhone 18 Pro's high-end recognition remains solid, and after launching domestically, Pro series sales quickly surpassed 6 million units, with a 29% year-on-year growth in China, making it the core driver of global growth; the foldable model completes the product lineup, with 2nm chips and edge AI as core selling points. However, growth heavily depends on average price increases, with overall shipments down about 4% year-on-year, weak domestic demand in the US, and uneven regional growth. Profit side pressure is evident: Rising prices of storage chips continue to erode gross margins, with guidance falling from 50.1% to 47%-48%, becoming the first cost challenge since the new CEO took office. The current market is cautious about the AI spending narrative, and Apple's light capital expenditure nature has become a safe haven for tech stocks. If guidance meets expectations, it could provide emotional support for pressured tech stocks; if profits fall short, it may trigger further liquidity sell-offs, affecting high-liquidity risk assets. $AAPL $BTC Saylor bought more coins again, 811 of them. Pretty impressive, right? Where did the money come from? Printed from stocks. He issued 1.18 million new shares in one day and got 164 million. He only spent 65.5 million on coins, pocketing the rest. The more stocks printed, the fewer coins bought. The coins you get per share have already decreased by 3.7% this year. Later, another $18.6 billion worth of stocks was approved, continuing the printing. The pie stays the same size, but more people are sharing it. Next door, Strive also bought coins on the same day. They didn’t issue a single new share. With the same pie, their share per unit actually got bigger. So don’t just look at how many coins they bought. Look at one thing: How many bitcoins back each share you bought. If the coins increase but this number doesn’t, it means they’re buying coins while printing stocks. To put it plainly: Only one piece of meat was added to the pot, but three more people sat at the table. The piece in your bowl didn’t get bigger; it actually got thinner. This number is reported every quarter in the financial statements. So the whole thing can be summed up in one sentence. Them buying coins is their business. Whether your share increases is your business. This time: Coins increased by 811, but your share got a little thinner. It’s like dividing a cake. The cake got bigger by one piece, but three more people came to share it. The piece on your plate didn’t get bigger; it got thinner. Next time you see "bought coins again," don’t rush to praise them. First, look at the stock price on the day they announced the coin purchase. Conclusion first: The tokenized US stock track is accelerating, but $CT is quickly falling to a historic low. 1. The track is accelerating: On October 30, Kamino launched tokenized stock collateral lending on Solana; on November 1, Aave opened stock-collateralized USDC loans on Base; on October 31, Chainlink launched 24/7 pricing for tokenized assets. 2. $CT is moving in the opposite direction: OKX launched it on September 30, and it has dropped 74.1% in 30 days, currently priced at 0.1284, down 79.2% from the October 2 high, and only 1.4% above the October 30 historic low. 3. On-chain business hasn't collapsed: Concrete's TVL on DefiLlama is $1.228 billion today, down only 4% from $1.28 billion ten days ago. 4. The problem lies in pricing: Market cap is only $24.46 million; after deducting 810 million tokens not yet unlocked, FDV is $129 million; market cap/TVL ratio is only 2.0%. Circulating supply is just 19%, with 81% still locked up. 5. Market data confirms: Perpetual 24h volume is 9 million, 4.5 times the spot volume of 2 million; open interest is only 2.11 million; funding rate has been stuck at the 0.005%/4h floor for 12 consecutive periods, indicating no panic, just no takers. On-chain activity is still growing, but the token collapsed first. Will you wait for unlock or exit first? The $BTC capital divergence is clear at a glance, and the capital outflow pressure on ETH is much fiercer than that of BTC. The final Farside statistics are out: ETH ETFs saw a net outflow of $1.607 billion throughout October, more than three times the $516 million outflow of BTC. This is a huge contrast compared to September's market, when ETH ETFs recorded a net inflow of $831 million; the trend completely reversed in just one month. The capital rhythms of the two are completely different. BTC continued to accumulate inflows in the first half of October and was expected to close positive, but a large outflow on the last trading day of the month turned the entire month's capital into a net outflow, representing a negative data dump at month-end. ETH's selling pressure persisted throughout October, with continuous capital withdrawal from the beginning to the end of the month and no significant inflows. Institutional capital's choice is clear: prioritize risk aversion, only willing to hold digital gold assets like BTC, and remain cautious about ETH's long-term narrative. This ongoing capital hemorrhage means ETH will face heavier short-term pressure, with selling pressure continuous rather than a one-time shock. #Circle财报在即,稳定币增长能否兑现收益? The 2026 U.S. midterm elections will be held on November 3. Since 1950, data shows that the S&P 500 has averaged a gain of about 15% in the 12 months following the election, regardless of which party dominates; risk appetite often recovers once uncertainty is removed. However, what truly impacts the industry are the fiscal policies, technology regulations, trade, and monetary policy expectations after the election. $BTC $ETH $SNDK For tech assets that have already significantly corrected, the next two months are worth reassessing valuation and positioning opportunities. AI investment is entering the second half, and evaluation criteria are shifting. Over the past three years, the market mainly focused on three points: whether there is core technology, whether computing power demand continues to grow, and whether there are enough customers and orders. As long as growth expectations are strong, high valuations are acceptable. But now the trend has changed; AI investment is shifting from a computing power arms race to strict scrutiny of balance sheets, financing capabilities, and free cash flow. On October 30, the Nasdaq fell 2.86%, and the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index plummeted 7.2%, reflecting market concerns about massive AI capital expenditures and return cycles. But a decline in tech stocks does not mean global computing power demand is drying up; AI infrastructure is still being built. The market is really asking: when will investments turn into profits? Will capital expenditures consume cash flow? How much can companies still finance at what cost? This is a stress test on the financial sustainability of AI companies, not an industry collapse. The future winners will not necessarily be the companies that spend the most money, but those that can sustain investment, control debt, and ultimately generate free cash flow. In the short term, focus on elections and liquidity, long $PLTR will report its Q3 earnings after the US market closes today, with a conference call scheduled for 6 AM Beijing time tomorrow morning. It dropped 6.27% last Friday, closing at $184.11, down 14% from the all-time high of $213. The forward P/E ratio is still nearly 97 times. The real focus is on the full-year guidance. In August, it raised its full-year revenue forecast to $8.15 billion. Subtracting Q1's $1.63 billion, Q2's $1.935 billion, and the midpoint of Q3 guidance at $2.16 billion, Q4 is left with about $2.42 billion. Last year's Q4 was about $1.41 billion, so by this calculation, growth would drop from 93% in Q2 to 72%. Palantir tends to give conservative guidance; Q2 actual revenue exceeded the high end of its guidance by 7%, and the market is watching how much it can raise. To maintain 80% growth in Q4, the full year would need to be raised to around $8.26 billion. There's also a less obvious figure. Q2 new contract value totaled $3.37 billion, up only 49% year-over-year, while revenue grew 93%, indicating orders are lagging behind revenue. Remaining contract value is $13.1 billion, up 83%, also trailing revenue growth. Revenue exceeding $2.18 billion is just passing. Options bet on a one-sided 13.3% increase; to return to $213, it needs to rise 15.7%. Q3 beating expectations alone isn't enough; full-year guidance must be raised above $8.26 billion, and new contract growth must catch up. If the guidance only adds the extra from Q3 and orders continue to lag, a 97x P/E ratio will be hard to sustain, and $184 may not be the bottom. $QQQ $NVDA #Palantir财报前瞻:高增长能否支撑高估值 BitChoice | Satya — DeFi & Market Structure Intelligence November 2, 2026 The Next DeFi Opportunity May Be Currency Conversion Decentralized finance has spent years building infrastructure for cryptoasset trading, lending and liquidity provision.

The November 3rd vote will determine control of Congress for the next two years. The current market has largely priced in a high probability that the Democratic Party will take the House of Representatives, with about a 70% chance of sweeping both chambers. Elections are short-term emotional disturbances and unlikely to change the Federal Reserve's main policy direction. The real determinant of midterm liquidity is the Treasury's refinancing plan on November 4th. Three outcomes correspond to different market paths: a divided Congress is most favored by capital, as bipartisan checks and balances make large-scale fiscal expansion and aggressive regulation unlikely. Deficit expectations converge, benefiting a decline in U.S. Treasury yields, giving risk assets a breathing window; a Democratic sweep raises the probability of tighter crypto and AI regulation, putting short-term pressure on technology and altcoins; full Republican control favors looser regulation and tax cuts, but fiscal expansion would increase U.S. Treasury supply, which in turn suppresses growth assets. For the crypto market, BTC is primarily anchored to macro liquidity and ETF funds, so the election has limited direct impact; DeFi and concept altcoins are more sensitive to regulation. Some states have crypto-related referendums, which may trigger independent sector rallies. It is important to note that pre-election expectations have already been priced in. Outcomes that meet expectations tend to result in realized moves, while unexpected results will amplify volatility; if vote counting disputes arise, market volatility will quickly escalate. $BTC $ETH #With the US midterm elections approaching, which outcomes are worth watching? I am the midline intelligence guy. For midterms, I don't look at slogans, only three key votes: 1. Control of the two chambers The House is very likely to flip blue, the Senate is uncertain. A divided Congress = policy gridlock, fiscal expansion limited, risk assets first to suffer from negative surprises. 2. Crypto legislation window The "Clarity Act" is stalled. If Republicans hold both chambers, BTC and ETH rebound with compliance expectations; if Democrats sweep, regulatory scrutiny tightens, altcoins fall first, BTC relatively more resilient. 3. BTC/ETH positioning $BTC benefits from the "fiat distrust + liquidity" logic, election noise doesn't change the midline view; $ETH is more sensitive to regulation and ETF funds, more affected by Congress results. My approach: deleverage before the election, hold BTC spot firmly, wait for results before assessing ETH legislative wording, no overplaying scenarios.$ZEC brother, the funding rate is very stable, you can do hedging to earn the interest spread. It settles every 4 hours, 6 times a day, 6*0.01%=0.06%; with a principal of 100,000, take out 50,000 to short, more than 50,000, about 30 yuan a dayOn-chain finance has always used a stopwatch to handle tasks requiring sub-second precision. The Jenner hard fork of BNB Chain introduced BEP-706: it added a precompiled contract at address 0x70, allowing smart contracts to directly read the current block's millisecond-level timestamp, i.e., the number of milliseconds since the Unix epoch. This is a detail, but it underpins all time-sensitive logic on-chain. Previously, deadline judgments for time-limited signature quotes, auction hammer times, and timeliness checks before price oracle updates could only be segmented by seconds. Two bids arriving within the same second could not be ordered by the contract and had to be resolved by the packaging order. BEP-706 is very restrained in its approach. It adds a new precompile without altering the existing block.timestamp second-level return mechanism. Old contracts require no changes, and new contracts that want precision can call 0x70 themselves. For $BNB, the significance is not in the coin price but in what it can support. Millisecond-level timestamps are the entry ticket for time-limited auctions, quote matching, and liquidation windows. Auction gameplay on $CAKE and signature validity checks on wallets are directly benefiting. One point worth considering is that even though contract time precision is solved, the user's perceived experience may not immediately change. The bottleneck in on-chain experience has never rested on a single timestamp; precision is a necessary condition, not a sufficient one.Crypto has put $233 million into this election cycle, yet most traders still haven't clocked how much this midterm matters for Bitcoin and Ethereum. Two scenarios: Regulation-heavy Congress: Current bounces could prove to be bull traps. Tighter rules on ETFs, on-chain compliance, and institutional access would weigh on prices. Crypto-friendly Congress: BTC likely leads the move, while ETH benefits from DeFi, L2, and ecosystem narratives, giving it strong upside resilience. Geopolitics adds anothFear at 34, bulls at 69.4%: sentiment is cold, positions are hot, who will admit they're wrong first?🤔 • BTC at $78,086, up only +0.7% in 24h, but down -7.2% on the October monthly chart; price is grinding, sentiment is shrinking.📉 • Fear index at 34, market verbally cautious; yet 69.4% of Binance BTC futures accounts are on the long side, positions are not cold.⚖️ • Last Friday saw $643 million net outflow from ETFs, spot funds are withdrawing, but futures funds show no obvious excitement.💸 • Funding rate only 0.01%, indicating although there are many longs, no one is willing to chase with high leverage; the buzz stays at the account direction level.🧊 • Key events this Wednesday: Binance reserve proof, Friday $2.1 billion options expiry with bullish clustering above $82K, and non-farm payroll data.🗓️ This looks like a tug-of-war of “sentiment defense, position offense”: fear comes from ETF outflows and monthly decline, longs come from expectations on key events and above $82K. If reserve proof stabilizes confidence, options push up, and non-farm data doesn’t disappoint, bulls may take the lead; if data or liquidity throws cold water, the 69.4% longs could turn into a crowded trade.🔥 Fear says be cautious, positions say rebound, who’s right this time? $BTC #非农来袭,12月加息会否生变? #美国中期选举在即,哪些结果值得关注? 黑客事件过去两天,市场给出的回应比价格本身更刺眼:资金在离场。$BTC 现货 ETF 单日净流出 6.43 亿美元,创下年内最差纪录——本周前四天辛苦积累的 4.4 亿美元净流入,一天之内全部吐回。黑客地址上仍有大量 $BTC 在链上移动,价格贴着 30 日低点,RSI 仅 37,四条均线齐齐压顶,反弹力度虚弱得几乎可以忽略。 真正值得警惕的不是跌幅,而是资金与成交量的双重退潮。昨日成交量只有 7 日均值的约五成,买盘已经停手。这意味着当前的下探并非恐慌抛售的高潮,而是流动性抽离后的真空下滑——没有承接,也没有反抗。 $ETH 的结构更完整地呈现了空头图景:单周净流出 4.13 亿美元,整个 10 月累计流出 16.07 亿美元,叠加黑客在链上的洗钱与抛售动作,价格同样紧贴 30 日低点,RSI 37.5,均线全面压制,下降趋势没有任何裂缝。$SOL 则站在主要币种的队尾:ETF 单周净流出超 1 亿美元,成交量仅 1 亿出头,RSI 35,MA7/20/60 依次压顶,资金撤离的速度快过价格下跌的速度。 场外同样没有援军。现货黄金从 1 月高点 5595 回落至 3874,美联储表态In the unfinished orders from the Binance $TRX hack, there's still a hole of over a hundred million USD in TRX hanging there. To achieve 100% reserve, this batch will sooner or later be slowly bought back on the secondary market. Look back at the spike at the 0.30 level It plunged down and was all bought up in the blink of an eye Giving retail investors no time to react or catch the dip With such an obvious buyback expectation supporting the bottom here Shorting against the trend at this level is purely a losing bet Good opportunities don’t wait, the window is as short as a player’s comeback. #TRX $TRX 👇$UNI The long-short ratio for UNI has actually surged to 2.48, the crowd is packed on board. Everyone is stubbornly holding and buying long with leverage; if the market shakes even slightly, this group of longs will immediately stampede and become a side dish. Looking at the V4 locked volume, it dropped nearly 30% in a single week, money is flowing out. No buying pressure is entering; it's all retail investors holding firm inside, a pullback could come at any time. #UNI $UNI 👇pepe withdrawal is still not open, could Binance become the sad frog? 85 hours ago, hackers attacked Binance and stole various assets, including pepe worth 35 million USD. 24 hours ago, Binance replenished most of the stolen assets and opened withdrawals, but so far, pepe has not been replenished, and pepe withdrawals are still not available (with screenshots as proof). 35 million USD, if Binance wants to buy, buying on the open market will inevitably pump pepe's price. According to the screenshots, the total sell wall for pepe on Binance is less than 30 million USD. If Binance sweeps the market at the current price, pepe's market cap will directly jump to 8 billion USD. Binance simply cannot buy back the same amount of pepe stolen by the hackers, and even if someone is willing to sell pepe to Binance, Binance will pay a cost far exceeding 35 million USD because the price has risen nearly 5 times. Considering that pepe recently applied for an ETF and Sun bought 50 million USD worth of pepe, if Binance wants to replenish the stolen pepe, it either has to buy from pepe's whales or from Sun. The pepe whales have controlled and accumulated for over a year, preparing for this weekly-level main upward wave. They will not sell their chips to Binance at cost and then return them to retail investors. $PLTR 的调整后每股只剔两样东西,股权激励和跟它相关的雇主工资税。持股的涨跌不剔。8月电话会上CFO Dave Glazer讲过一句: Unrealized gains from our holdings in SpaceX resulted in a $0.03 tailwind to GAAP EPS and a $0.02 tailwind to adjusted EPS in the quarter. 二季度那0.41里,有2分钱是SpaceX给的。三季度SpaceX从170.86跌到150.86,跌了11.7%。Palantir没披露持了多少股,6月底它手里的上市公司股票按公允价值一共1.84亿美元。全当成SpaceX算,这季调整后每股少0.6分钱左右。 调整后净利润能还原出来。调整后营业利润加上利息收入和其他收入,减掉少数股东损益,再乘77%,23%是公司一直用的名义税率。过去四季照这个算,跟新闻稿的数都对得上。 一致预期是0.41。盘子的线是0.42,新闻稿上要是0.43才算。利息收入按8,500万、其他收入按负2,000万、少数股东损益按500万、股数按25.75亿$SNDK $INTC $GOOGL Good earnings are no longer enough to drive stock prices higher. Google, Intel, and SanDisk all achieved revenue growth, but investors still punish those who miss expectations. After weeks of strong rebounds, valuations are facing stricter scrutiny. Even when earnings exceed expectations, it does not always push stock prices up. The market's willingness to pay for growth is weakening. Capital no longer simply pays for revenue growth speed but focuses more on forward guidance, profit margins, and the pace of AI monetization. The earlier rebound has already priced in some optimistic expectations, and the earnings season has entered a "falsification first" phase, where even slight flaws can easily trigger profit-taking. Going forward, the focus is on long-term bond yields and corporate guidance, controlling positions while waiting for signals with greater certainty. #Palantir财报前瞻:高增长能否支撑高估值 The current market expectations lean towards the Democratic Party controlling both chambers of Congress, with the Republicans (Trump's side) unlikely to gain the upper hand; although Trump has previously overturned deficits in elections, the market believes the chance of a comeback this time is low. This would mean that if the Democrats take both chambers, the policies Trump wants—such as tax cuts, deregulation, and increased tariffs—that are favorable to crypto and the US stock market will be difficult to implement. The market's previous hype around Trump's policy benefits will cool down, and the Nasdaq and BTC are likely to face downward pressure. Looking back at the midterm elections in 2018 and 2022, the Nasdaq experienced pullbacks around those times. It's uncertain whether this pattern will repeat. #BTC冲高回落,市场轮动开始了吗? On the first trading day of winter time, after the market opened at 10:30 PM, the S&P rose 0.5%, the Nasdaq $QQQ rose 0.7%, and the Dow rose 405 points. Leading the way was oil; Rubio said Trump prefers a peaceful resolution with Iran, and it was also reported that Khamenei authorized the government to negotiate. Brent fell 6.1% to $106.5, and WTI dropped to $97.7. Tech stocks saw large orders. Marvell is acquiring optical module manufacturer Lumentum entirely with stock, valuing the company at $115 billion, a 23.9% premium, with the deal closing expected in the first half of 2028. However, Benzinga reported that Lumentum fell 6.5% pre-market, with no recognition of the premium. Nvidia rose over 1%, Amazon and Tesla $TSLA rose over 2%. Disappointingly, Oracle filed before the open to simultaneously sell $10 billion in new shares and $10 billion in bonds, diluting about 2.5%, and fell 3% pre-market. It has already dropped 33% this year. This bullish candle is mediocre, with the gains mainly driven by the space created from the oil price drop. Lumentum fell despite the premium, and Oracle’s bond and stock sales show that investors remain cautious about AI spending. The Nasdaq just finished its worst month since March 2025 in October, and after-hours tonight Palantir and Apple $AAPL will report consecutively; if one guidance misses expectations, this 0.7% gain will have to be given back tomorrow. The 6% drop in oil was also just based on a statement; none of the seven conditions set by Iran have been implemented yet. #苹果新CEO迎来iPhone18首份成绩单 FDA approved Inovio's first product after market close on Friday, and the stock price more than tripled in after-hours trading — but the main stock fell 22% on Friday first. FDA accelerated approval of Voceryq (formerly INO-3107), which reduces the frequency of surgeries for adult recurrent respiratory papillomatosis, claiming to be the first approved DNA drug. Orders can be placed and shipped within about 60 days, with full market launch in Q1 2027; a conference call at 8 PM Eastern tonight will discuss labeling and commercialization. Closed at $0.60 on Friday, down 22%, with about 80.5 million shares traded; after-hours surged to $2.71, then retreated to about $2.05, and pre-market this morning around $2.04. But this is accelerated approval, and confirmatory studies are still required to verify benefits, with a study draft due before year-end and finalization by mid-next year. A competitor's product from Precigen in the same field was approved in August 2025, so Inovio does not have the first-mover advantage; actual drug sales realization is the next hurdle. I think the approval is real, and the revaluation is real, but the after-hours triple already priced in the "first product" all at once. I don't chase after-hours gains: only if the opening price holds above $2.71 do I consider further gains; if it falls back below $2.00 and can't recover, the logic for chasing high fails. Do you think this is a biotech comeback, or just another one-day approval hype? The above is just personal observation and record, not investment advice. $INO $PGEN #USStocks #BiotechU.S. stocks moved higher, yet several key AI infrastructure names came under heavy selling pressure. 📊 Market snapshot: Dow Jones: +1% S&P 500 & Nasdaq: nearly +0.6% Lumentum ($LITE): down over 10% Marvell ($MRVL): down over 6% Ciena ($CIEN): down nearly 3.9% Neocloud stocks also weakened: ALAB, CIFR, CRWV and NBIS fell around 3–5%. My read: This looks more like sector rotation and selective profit-taking than a broad market selloff.

Service quality, external demand, transparent evaluation, and economic sustainability are essential when assessing decentralized AI networks.#Palantir Financial Report Review: Can High Growth Support a High Valuation $SNDK will always lack VRAM, but it won't always lack storage [Hardcore review of this "retail investor takeover"]: Look at Chart 1, the 15-minute chart of SNDK, dropping sharply from 1198.9 to 1118, with all moving averages in a bearish alignment, MACD showing a bearish crossover below zero, and green bars surging wildly—a classic one-sided sell-off. But what really gives me chills is the data in Chart 2: the proportion of long positions is as high as 89.69%! The long-short ratio is 8.7! Almost everyone in the market is long! What does this mean? Countless retail investors, seeing the earnings per share (EPS) of 49.51 far exceeding expectations, are crazily catching falling knives halfway down. The manipulative whales, seeing nearly 90% of the opposing positions, are grinning ear to ear; they definitely won’t push the price up until they’ve completely wiped you out. [Macro logic: the stark contrast between VRAM and storage]: This is the real picture in the AI computing power sector now: Nvidia keeps shouting about the shortage of HBM (VRAM), boosting Hynix to the skies; but companies like SanDisk, which produce traditional NAND flash (storage), face overcapacity and cooling prices. No matter how good the earnings report looks, it can’t withstand the chill of the storage cycle—this is a typical case of "dead on sight" plus "valuation kill." [My advice]: Use the harshest good news to trap the most unfortunate retail investors. This 89.69% long position is the most terrifying "contrarian indicator." Absolutely do not bottom-fish now; short on rallies near the moving averages (around 1150), or just stay out and watch. Wait until these 90% bloodied chips are all washed out before considering entering the market.US stock indices all opened in the green, Brent crude fell 6%, yet Bitcoin remains pinned at 78,000. On the fifth day after Binance was hacked, TRX and AAVE are still dragged along by the incident, with ZRO hanging on the list of biggest decliners. $TRX around 0.3177, hackers take a breather Up 2.2% in 24 hours. Hackers transferred about $628 million via Tron, still holding about 475 million TRX, which was dumped to 0.302 on October 31. Chainalysis says the Tron intermediary wallet has been basically emptied, still 4% below the pre-incident 0.331. $ZRO around 1.77, rebound interrupted ⚠️ Down 7.6% in 24 hours. After touching 1.41 on October 30 and just bouncing back to 1.80, it failed to hold today. On the 20th, 23.28 million tokens were unlocked, about 2.3% of total supply. $AAVE around 131, borrowed by hackers Down 5.2% in 24 hours. According to on-chain blogger nug, hackers deposited $60 million stolen USDT into Aave before the freeze and borrowed about 19,800 ETH. Aave then froze the mainnet V3 market; the official stance is no bad debt recognition. Those 475 million TRX remain unmoved, making it the most stable among the three. Once transferred to exchanges, the 0.302 level will need re-verification. ZRO likely won’t recover 1.80 before unlocking, probably finding support near 1.5. The real issue with AAVE is who ultimately bears the $60 million USDT loss; if it’s passed on to depositors, the drop will exceed this 5%. #加密行业协同守护资产安全 #Palantir财报前瞻:高增长能否支撑高估值 The core logic behind Palantir's current market trend is "sovereign AI," with a surge in the U.S. commercial sector combined with defense orders providing a floor. It has exceeded revenue and profit expectations for multiple consecutive quarters, with outstanding free cash flow and retention rates, forming the foundation for supporting a high valuation. The U.S. government business is highly sticky, with projects like Maven and TITAN implemented, providing long-term stable orders; on the commercial side, the AIP platform continues to scale, with enterprises showing strong demand for data autonomy and privatized AI, and a robust pipeline of commercial orders. The contradiction lies in the valuation premium being fully stretched, with forward valuations almost fully pricing in high growth for the coming years, leaving very little margin for error. It is not standardized software; delivery heavily depends on on-site engineers and leans more towards data consulting, which imposes a ceiling on scalable expansion. At the same time, it faces competitive pressure from major players like Microsoft and OpenAI. If new commercial contract growth slows, the valuation will quickly plummet. Additionally, performance is highly tied to the U.S. defense budget, with midterm elections and budget negotiations causing order fluctuations. Key earnings report focus: U.S. commercial revenue growth, number of new customers, net retention rate, and full-year guidance from management. If guidance is raised and orders continue to grow strongly, there is room to maintain valuation; if growth slows, a double hit to valuation and performance is likely. As a high Beta AI stock, it will also fluctuate in line with the Nasdaq and U.S. Treasury yields.ICE, the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange, Trade.xyz, and OKX have partnered to build a compliant perpetual contract trading and clearing system in the U.S., operated by ICE, with OKX's joint venture channel responsible for user distribution. This marks an important step toward the compliance of perpetual derivatives in the U.S. In the long term, it aims to open the compliant retail leverage market in the U.S., narrowing the advantage of offshore exchanges, promoting industry standardization, attracting domestic U.S. capital, and improving regulatory expectations for crypto derivatives. However, the biggest uncertainty lies in CFTC approval. Currently, only a cooperation framework has been reached; licenses and product details have yet to be finalized. The approval process is lengthy and carries risks of rejection or leverage restrictions. At the same time, the compliant platform will impose strict KYC, position, and leverage constraints, making it difficult for liquidity to catch up with offshore markets initially. In the short term, this is sentimentally positive, driving stronger momentum for Hyperliquid and the derivatives sector; if successfully implemented, it will reshape the global contract landscape. Going forward, key focus will be on CFTC approval progress, leverage caps, and launch timelines. #OKX、ICE与Trade.xyz联手,推动永续合约进入美国合规市场 $BTC $ETH $SOL Why is Intel considered a "fire sale" while Google is seen as a "bargain buy" despite both experiencing sharp drops? In this recent tech stock pullback, many have asked me: Intel has fallen so badly, is it worth buying? My original response was: Don't catch a falling knife. Although both have plunged deeply, these two are fundamentally different. $INTC: This is "massive bleeding," not "growing pains." It’s down nearly half, but the fundamentals are directly disappointing. Management has warned that free cash flow won’t turn positive until 2027, foundry business has almost no external customers, relying entirely on self-subsidizing. Historical data is even more painful: buying after big drops has less than a 50% success rate over 60 days. Major banks are downgrading ratings. Its drop is a cash flow black hole; what you think is a bargain is actually filling the company's pit. $GOOGL: This is a "wrongful sell-off," not a collapse in logic. It also dropped sharply after earnings due to heavy AI investments causing short-term cash flow pressure. But look at the trump cards: cloud business profits surged, the core cash machine is intact. Management clearly stated AI monetization will ramp up in 2027, plus the antitrust risk of forced breakup has been resolved, with all major banks rating it as "buy." Its drop is impatience waiting for results; this is the real opportunity to buy the dip. In summary: Intel’s foundation is quicksand, Google’s is concrete. In this pullback, brothers, are you ready to pick up Intel or lay in wait for Google? The $BTC market also lacks volume now, so hold your hands, don’t trade recklessly! #AMD财报前瞻:HeliosAI系统商业化进展 Seeing "burning 2 billion USDT," my first reaction was also, "Is this money?" Later I realized, this is not someone's money being burned at all. USDT is a stablecoin; the issuer owes as much as they have issued. Burning is equivalent to taking back the IOUs and tearing them up, reducing the circulating supply. $USDT will not rise because of this; it is supposed to stay pegged to 1 USD. But the batch of tokens that disappeared was originally lying on Ethereum, ready to enter the market at any time. Now they're gone, so $ETH on-chain transactions and $BTC buying demand lose one source. So don't rush to interpret this as bullish, nor rush to call a crash; first see if they replenish it or not.
