【Nearly 2 trillion yen profit in a single quarter, yet Kioxia plunges 14%: Is the AI storage boom cooling down?】
On November 2, Kioxia $KIOXIA intraday decline nearly reached 14%. The trigger was the earnings guidance announced on October 30: revenue for July-September was 2.48 trillion yen, operating profit 1.995 trillion yen, a 23-fold year-on-year surge, but the company expects operating profit for the next quarter to basically remain flat at 1.995 trillion yen, below the market expectation of 2.32 to 2.35 trillion yen.
In the previous two quarters, average selling prices rose about 70% and 20% respectively, but the company expects the next quarter's increase to drop to low single digits. AI data centers are still purchasing large amounts of SSDs, but the market has begun to worry whether the most frenzied price hike phase for storage chips is over. The company is clearly still profitable, but the stock price is trading on whether future profits can continue to double.
On October 15, Kioxia's margin buying balance was about 920 billion yen, making it one of the largest stocks in margin buying on the Tokyo Stock Exchange. The stock price had already retreated more than 50% from its high point, and this earnings guidance shortfall could easily trigger further forced liquidations.
This decline represents a valuation and expectation adjustment in the AI storage sector. NAND demand remains, but the price increase slope has changed. Continued growth in AI computing investment does not mean all companies selling the "shovels" can keep enjoying huge profits. Next, it depends on whether NAND prices can accelerate again and whether Kioxia can deliver on subsequent order growth.From 150 to 200 applicants, only 40 actually showed up in the end. This wave of license applications in Brazil was like a roll call—two-thirds didn’t show.
Interestingly, there’s a grace period: those who didn’t submit applications have until one month after October 30 to "orderly exit" on their own. To translate, no one will come to catch you, but starting November 6, banks will shut down funding channels, so you’re on your own.
What concerns me more is the maximum two-year review period. Only those 40 companies can operate with peace of mind during these two years; the rest will either go underground or relocate. The rise and fall of $BTC doesn’t affect them much, but that small amount of $USDT you have on minor platforms might suddenly become inaccessible one day.Dogecoin (DOGE) Whale (Mega Whale) Classification Standards (Market Common Criteria) - 🐬 Dolphin: 1 million to 10 million DOGE - 🦈 Shark: 10 million to 100 million DOGE - 🐳 Whale: ≥100 million DOGE (can significantly influence the market) - 🦑 Super Mega Whale: ≥1 billion DOGE (institutional/exchange level) Quantity and Chip Situation According to Santiment statistics: there are about 140 wallets holding ≥100 million DOGE, these addresses collectively hold over 108 billion DOGE, with chip concentration far higher than BTC and ETH. Key Big Pitfall: The top on-chain rich list is not a single whale, but Robinhood's custody cold wallet (about 27.2 billion DOGE, nearly 17.5% of circulating supply), which contains coins from hundreds of thousands of retail investors, not one person; second is Upbit, third is Binance, both are exchange custody wallets, representing user asset custody, not private mega whales. The legendary super address that once held nearly 30% of DOGE was split by the end of 2021 and is no longer a single large holder. Characteristics (Compared to BTC/ETH Whales) 1. DOGE is a meme coin with thinner liquidity; a large private whale's big transfer or dump causes much more violent market fluctuations than BTC or ETH, easily triggering panic and chain liquidations. 2. High chip concentration: the top 10 addresses together account for the circulating supplyThe yen has dropped to around 157, and Japan's Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama made repeated statements this morning: ensuring stability in the foreign exchange market is crucial, and action will be taken against disorderly movements. Remember, verbal intervention is often a prelude to actual action.
Why am I so focused on this? The yen is the hidden leverage in global carry trades. Once Japan is forced to let the yen appreciate or actually intervenes, the leverage borrowed in yen will be forced to unwind. The first to lose fuel will be the risk assets propped up by oversold rebounds, and $BTC won't escape.
So at times like this, I keep my position light and hold plenty of cash, not following the thin market rebound to add bets. The real variable isn't in today's candlestick but lies with the yen and US Treasury bonds. Are you watching the price to guess the direction, or watching who is secretly adjusting leverage?$SUI SUI's unlock this time is quite interesting. The 39 million dollars worth of chips are being dumped, so logically it should create a dip; the first three unlocks did cause a drop indeed. But this time, the price has stubbornly held above 0.87 for nine consecutive hourly candles, and the bears simply couldn't generate volume to push it down. Moreover, 70% of the chips are locked in the staking pool, so the circulating supply outside is really limited. This isn't selling pressure; this is a coin that ate its own unlock and asked for seconds. At this position, the bears are completely holding on hard, and the buying support is much stronger than expected.

👇BTC short-term review｜Bollinger Bands narrowing, waiting for a breakout
Today after surging to 78488, it fell back, confirming a false breakout trap
✅Key level: 78207 (resistance)
🔹Rebound to around 78207 faces resistance and stagnates, bearish outlook, targets 77500, 77240
🔹If it firmly stands above 78207 again, the outlook turns bullish, targets 79600, 80000
Bollinger Bands narrowing phase has fast volatility, avoid chasing highs or selling lows, risk control first! #美联储官员释放加息信号，12月预期仍存分歧 $BTC Tomorrow is the US midterm election vote counting, with results coming out Wednesday morning Beijing time. Polls are already very clear: the Democrats are very likely to take the House of Representatives, about 70% chance for the Senate, and roughly the same 70% chance to take both chambers. What is fatal for Bitcoin is that the market structure bill was already blocked in the Senate in September. If the Democrats take the Senate again, the Banking Committee chair will be replaced by Warren, who led opposition to this bill, so the bill has no chance of revival in 2027 or 2028.
Elon Musk has spent $445 million to support the Republicans, which also protects himself. The Democrats have long said that if they take both chambers, they will investigate his contracts and the previous Department of Government Efficiency.
The market has been suppressed mainly for three reasons: 1️⃣ The Federal Reserve, which will meet at the end of October and likely hold steady, though two votes favor a rate hike. The probability of a rate hike in December is now set at 71%. 2️⃣ The day Binance was hacked, which directly pushed the price down to 765. 3️⃣ Election risk aversion, with money flowing out; spot funds had a net outflow of over $500 million in October. Bitcoin fell from 845 to around 779, dropping nearly 9% in 30 days, unable to break back above 82, showing continued weakness. But the market has already largely priced in this outcome, so it may not crash much on the day. Negative news being realized could actually lead to a bounce. First, watch if 80,000 can be held. What is not priced in is the Republicans unexpectedly holding the Senate, which would likely trigger a strong but not very strong rebound. We will wait until both the election and the December 9 Federal Reserve meeting pass before making further judgments. #CoinbaseQ3净利润转正，交易收入同比降43% $ETH $BTC current price is 77500, rebounded 1200 from the low of 76260. My judgment: this is just a technical correction, not a reversal📉.
First, the drop was too sharp. From 81000 to 76260 in two days, a decline of about 6%, short-term oversold, a rebound is very normal⚡.
Second, the platform has restored 90% of assets, market panic has somewhat cooled down🫧.
Third, after the $427 million liquidation yesterday, shorts took profits, adding fuel to the rebound🔥.
But don’t rush to go long🚫. Resistance is at 78500 above; if it can’t hold, it may fall back. The probability of a rate hike in December is 70.7%, ETFs are still continuously flowing out, the bearish factors have not cleared🧊. I tend to think it will encounter resistance between 78500—79500 and then fall back, possibly testing 76200 again later. Brothers, the rebound is watchable, but be cautious about chasing longs👀. #美联储官员释放加息信号，12月预期仍存分歧 #OKX、ICE与Trade.xyz联手，推动永续合约进入美国合规市场 #加密行业协同守护资产安全 The squeeze just started, and as soon as BTC and ETH rebound, people are shouting 82000? Let me first lay out the bearish logic.
I don't take this rebound as a direct reversal. BTC is currently at 78,135 USDT, only about +0.59% higher than the opening price in the last 24 hours; ETH is at 2,271 USDT, about +0.42%. It seems like a bottoming out, but the daily structure remains weak: both BTC and ETH's MACD maintain a death cross, the super trend is above 83,470 and 2,490 respectively, and the price has yet to reclaim key trend resistance.
BTC RSI(6) is 34.54, ETH is 33.17, indicating the short-term is near a low, but a "low RSI" does not mean the trend has reversed. More importantly, BTC has still dropped -7.55% in the past 30 days, ETH down -14.87%; if volume and moving averages don't recover during the rebound, it could just be a retracement within a downtrend.
The news also hasn't completely removed risk appetite pressure. Binance officially announced on November 1 that withdrawals are being restored in phases after the security incident, so market liquidity and sentiment may still fluctuate. Bulls shouting 82000 is understandable, but for me, only when BTC firmly stands above MA7 and approaches MA25 can the rebound be structurally validated; otherwise, the risk of a pullback after a spike remains.
I have been observing this rebound from a bearish perspective, but this is not a definitive judgment on future trends, nor does it represent any trading advice.
The above is market analysis only and does not constitute investment advice. BTC is hugging the 50-week moving average! This "Chu-Han boundary" at 78,000 — can the bulls still hold?
Lords, hold on before swiping away.
Looking at the chart, $BTC is currently priced at 78,141, firmly stepping on the weekly EMA50 (78,433). This is no ordinary moving average; it’s the bull-bear Chu-Han boundary — stand above it and the bull market quickly returns; fail to hold it and you’re straight into the ICU.
The external environment is also unstable: Binance’s hack aftermath is still unsettled, and Bitcoin ETFs saw a net outflow of 643 million in a single day. Even more intense, this Wednesday is the midterm election, and Friday is the non-farm payrolls report — two ticking bombs lined up.
What bulls fear most is the support at 74,234 USD below. Data shows that if this breaks, mainstream CEX long positions liquidations will reach 698 million USD. To put it plainly: nearly 700 million in dead bodies lie buried below, just waiting for a needle.
Conversely, above at 81,354 USD lies 683 million in short positions. Right now, this game of chess between bulls and bears is separated by this 50-week moving average — whoever moves first dies.
Is there a way out? Historical data shows BTC has broken below and reclaimed the 50-week line 7 times, with 5 of those times marking the start of a bull market. If this week’s close holds above, it confirms the bull market; if the weekly close is below 76,000, the 700 million minefield will explode.
Don’t bet heavily on direction before the election and non-farm data. The line is fixed, but your position is alive. Control your hands, wait for the signal.
$BTC #美股与金银同步大跌，避险资金流向分化
On October 30, the market experienced indiscriminate selling, with stocks, gold, and crypto all under pressure simultaneously, temporarily invalidating the traditional safe-haven logic. The Nasdaq closed down 2.86%, the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index plunged 7.2%, and Intel plummeted 28.56% in a single day due to earnings guidance far below expectations; gold fell below $3900, silver broke the $50 mark; BTC briefly dipped below $78,000, with over $1.1 billion liquidated across the network in 24 hours. Only crude oil rose against the trend due to geopolitical factors, further reinforcing inflation stickiness.
The decline was driven by a confluence of three factors: December rate hike expectations heated up to 75%, causing U.S. Treasury risk-free yields at high rates to continuously divert safe-haven funds; the tech stock crash triggered margin calls, with institutions prioritizing the sale of highly liquid gold and silver to cover gaps; key price levels were breached, triggering algorithmic stop-loss orders, which self-reinforced the downtrend.
Currently, gold is in a range-recovery phase within a downtrend, with short-term moving averages still pointing downward. $3912 is short-term resistance, $3888.3 is key support, and buying strength at lows exceeds selling pressure. Trading can be done lightly to speculate on the recovery, with strict stop-losses in place; trend reversal still requires clear signal confirmation.
Going forward, focus on the U.S. midterm elections on November 3 and the nonfarm payroll data on the 6th, which will directly calibrate the rate hike path. Before these events, all assets remain vulnerable to pressure, and blind speculation on oversold rebounds is not advisable.
$XAU $BTC $SOL $BTC #SOL continues its upward momentum, with capital and on-chain demand resonating
Short-term pressure expected around $92, mid-term outlook depends on ETF capital and RWA transformation.
Short-term (1–2 weeks)
• Key support: 87.95 → $85.
• Resistance above: $97 (20EMA) → $99.4 → $103.7 → $106.7.
• Technical bias is bearish: price below major moving averages, RSI around 38.8, weak but not oversold.
Three suppressions
1. ETF net outflows for 5 consecutive days, totaling -$71.5 million, institutions gradually reducing risk.
2. Spot sell orders exceed buy orders for the first time in over six months, sentiment turning defensive.
3. Hacker funds still circulating multi-chain, involving over 1,000 addresses and more than 3,000 transfers, disturbance not fully cleared.
🔭 Mid-term (1–3 months)
• Downside: Meme tide recedes faster than new narratives take over, SOL on-chain perpetual share drops from 17% to 6%.
• Upside: RWA total value hits a new high of $5.19 billion, net increase of over $1 billion in one month, the most solid support for transformation.
• Standard Chartered maintains a $250 target by end of 2026, but it depends on transformation realization and capital inflow.
Watch three signals
1. Daily price at $92.34 — determines if short-term will oscillate or dip.
2. Whether SOL ETF outflows slow down or turn positive — marginal signal of institutional selling pressure.
3. Whether RWA TVL can continue to reach new highs — mid-term bottoming logic. The recent pullback in the US stock market has been quite significant!
Intel, SanDisk, and Circle are all falling.
The stronger the previous rally, the more intense the current correction.
I have been continuously following these companies, each representing three completely different main themes: chip manufacturing, AI storage sector, and stablecoin financial infrastructure.
Through this round of decline, we can clearly see a key shift happening in the market:
The market is no longer willing to pay just for stories and expectations; now the focus is on solid performance, profits, and real future earning potential.
Many stocks used to be driven up by expectations alone, but now capital is becoming rational. Once earnings fail to meet imagination, a correction is likely.
Going forward, whether the market can continue to strengthen hinges on whether the earnings reports can deliver convincing data. $BTC $ETH #美股与金银同步大跌，避险资金流向分化 $SNDK #U.S. stocks and gold & silver fall sharply together, safe-haven fund flows diverge
$BTC $XAU In a typical market, when U.S. stocks fall, funds flow into gold and silver as safe havens. But this round shows simultaneous sharp declines in stocks, gold, and silver. The core reason is not a risk outbreak, but a liquidity squeeze driven by rising real interest rates.
Federal Reserve officials continue to send hawkish signals, and the market is repricing the likelihood of a rate hike in December, causing U.S. Treasury yields to rise rapidly. Gold itself does not generate interest, so higher rates directly increase holding costs, temporarily sidelining the safe-haven logic in favor of the interest rate logic. Meanwhile, some institutions are selling liquid gold and silver to meet margin calls and redemptions, further amplifying the decline.
The real destination of funds has diverged:
✅ Some safe-haven funds choose U.S. Treasuries and U.S. dollar cash; currently, Treasuries yield returns and have become the preferred safe-haven vehicle;
✅ Some funds are on the sidelines, holding cash and waiting for inflation and employment data to be released;
❌ Gold and silver have temporarily lost their safe-haven status and become liquid assets being liquidated.
In terms of correlation, BTC and the Nasdaq are highly correlated and are both under pressure, repeatedly testing the lower bound of the trading range. The biggest pitfall now is inertia thinking—don’t blindly buy gold just because U.S. stocks fall.
Key focus going forward:
This week’s nonfarm payroll and wage data are turning points. If employment and wages remain strong, high interest rate expectations will persist, and gold, silver, and risk assets will continue to be under pressure; if employment data weakens and rate hike expectations cool down, a recovery rebound is possible.
Treat the market primarily as range-bound; there are many false rebounds currently, so don’t rush to heavily buy the dip. "Cheap is not a reason for the bottom"
In this round of $SNDK's decline, the most tempting illusion is: it has dropped so much, it must have bottomed out, right? But the price still has about 10% room below the 1000 support level, indicating that the downside is not blocked, but the path is not yet finished.
What deserves more attention is the sentiment. The long-short ratio surged to 6.92, with bulls packed like a morning rush hour subway. When the bearish candle lengthens, left-side buyers rush to reach out—not a calm bottom-fishing, but more like a fear of missing out on the rebound. The previous drop before July had already consumed much of the FOMO-style bottom-fishing enthusiasm; the smooth decline now precisely shows that the support is not solid.
"Cheap" is just a price tag, not a bottom signal. Support is unconfirmed, sentiment is uncleared, and bulls are still crowded. Rushing to go long now risks catching a falling knife. The market never lacks opportunities; what it lacks is the patience to wait for them. Let the bullets fly a while longer, and wait for clear right-side signals before acting—it’s not too late. #美联储官员释放加息信号，12月预期仍存分歧 #OKX、ICE与Trade.xyz联手，推动永续合约进入美国合规市场 #加密行业协同守护资产安全 To pour some cold water first, I don't consider the midterm elections as an immediate positive for the crypto market. The United States is about to hold the 2026 midterm elections, and the results will affect crypto legislation and regulation for the next two years. CoinDesk's State of Crypto has also launched a guide for crypto readers.
I have two concerns: election outcomes influencing policy direction does not mean bills will be enacted immediately; directly counting political expectations as industry gains risks jumping the gun; if regulatory boundaries remain unclear, then companies will find it difficult to finalize compliance and business strategies. No matter how heated market sentiment is, it may not translate into actual growth.
Of course, the bulls might be right. If substantial legislative progress is made after the election and regulatory rules become clear and enforceable, I will adjust my cautious stance. For now, I will wait to see how policies are implemented and won't celebrate votes prematurely.$BTC is currently priced at 78,070.1 USDT (+0.16%), trading narrowly between 77,555 and 78,488 over the past 24 hours. The 1-hour MACD red bars have converged to 5.4, indicating a clear exhaustion of momentum; the J value is 67.0, and RSI6 is at 56.05. The short-term has moved out of the overbought zone but lacks upward driving force. The upper resistance at 78,488 forms the first strong ceiling, with SUPERTREND support at 77,464. Fundamentally, there is a sharp contrast between "on-paper prosperity" and a "macro shift to hawkishness." Strategy Q3 recorded a record operating profit of $21 billion, all from unrealized gains on Bitcoin holdings, with total holdings reaching 848,517 BTC at an average cost of $75,446. However, the "BTC holdings per share" actually decreased by 3.7% year-to-date, implying that stock issuance and preferred stock buybacks have diluted shareholders' actual coin concentration. Meanwhile, the macro environment has shifted abruptly: CME data shows the probability of a rate hike in October has surged from 22% to 53.7%, the US dollar index has risen to 102.7, and the 10-year US Treasury yield is approaching 5.33%, a 24-year high. The rate cut narrative has been repriced, and the valuation anchor for risk assets is moving upward. The divergence in capital flows is also striking: BTC spot ETFs saw a net outflow of $261 million in a single day, with BlackRock alone withdrawing over $100 million; however, on-chain whale holdings have risen to about 3.03 million BTC, with the monthly accumulation rate being the fastest since February this year. Institutional channels are withdrawing while on-chain whales are accumulating, moving in completely opposite directions. The aftermath on the security front remains unsettled: b$BTC Tomorrow is the US midterm election. I checked the OKX daily chart, and there's a coincidence that's a bit scary:
After the last two midterm elections, BTC hit the bear market bottom within 6 weeks.
✅ 2018/11/6 closed at 6,517 → 39 days later 3,155 (-51.6%) → one year later 9,339
✅ 2022/11/8 closed at 18,545 → 13 days later 15,450 (-16.7%) → one year later 35,625
But don't treat the vote as a signal: there are only two samples, and 2022 also coincided with the FTX crash. The real commonality is timing; both were about a year after the cycle peak. This time, it's exactly 13 months from the 2025/10 peak of 126,200, with BTC around 78,100, down 38%.
My view: the election doesn't determine direction; first watch if the October low of 76,265 holds.

Blockchain gaming needs more than token rewards to achieve mainstream adoption. Players care about enjoyable gameplay, ownership features, performance, and communities that remain active after initial excitement fades. Immutable operates in this competitive gaming infrastructure sector. Its real progress should be measured through successful games, returning players, and sustainable in-game economies rather than announcements alone.If you treat this round of the market only as a "BTC rise, altcoins follow" straight story, it's easy to suffer losses due to sector misalignment. Have you noticed that recently the strength relationship no longer follows the old script? My most obvious feeling from watching the market these past two days is that sentiment hasn't fully warmed up, but risk appetite is probing locally. BTC remains the backbone; its price holding steady indicates that large funds haven't withdrawn yet; ETH occasionally catches up, more like testing whether the Ethereum narrative can regain popularity; altcoins clearly split into two segments—those with narratives and volume can still pulse, while those relying purely on sentiment flare up briefly then fizzle out. This structure shows the market is not trading on a "comprehensive bull market expectation" but on "selective bets under limited risk budgets." The bullish path is: as long as BTC doesn't break key support with volume, ETH remains relatively resilient, and strong branches within altcoins continue to generate profits, sentiment will spread from points into small-range rotations, favoring swing trading rather than holding long-term. The potential risk is that if BTC weakens, ETH's catch-up rally can easily become a bull trap, and altcoin rebounds will quickly turn into exit windows, because many of the recent rises lack real incremental support and are more about existing funds competing. My own judgment is that in the short term, it's more worthwhile to watch the strength difference between BTC and ETH rather than how much altcoins have rallied. If the leader holds steady, altcoins have breathing room; if the leader falters, sector rotation will shrink risk appetite. From a cross-market perspective, risk assets overall Fear index at 34, yet 69.4% of BTC contract accounts on Binance are going long.
As of 07:20 (Beijing time):
• BTC $78,086, 24h +0.7%
• October monthly line -7.2%
• Last Friday ETF net outflow of $643 million
• Funding rate only 0.01%, no one is leveraging
This Wednesday's key events: Binance reserve proof, Friday $2.1 billion options expiry (bullish cluster at $82K+), non-farm payrolls

$BTC $ETH $COIN #加密行业协同守护资产安全
THORChain was down for a day and a half, and early this morning the official team finally explained the reason. It has nothing to do with hackers breaking into the vault: Ethereum rolled back one block, and its vault refunded a 10 ETH deposit that never actually arrived.
I read the official explanation from start to finish. The night before last, Ethereum reorganized and dropped a block, and that deposit happened to be in the dropped block. THORChain had already recorded the transaction, and since the swap didn’t hit any price limits, it processed a refund as usual, so the vault paid out a sum unnecessarily. The payment checker first stopped ETH, and then node voting halted all chains. The user has already returned that money.
At first, I also thought the full network halt was to help block the stolen funds from Binance. The explanation doesn’t mention that at all. Their reason is more straightforward: the vulnerability is now public, and if any chain rolls back again, someone could resend a transaction with the same nonce, causing the vault to pay out again. Without a patch, reopening the chain is like inviting someone to repeat the exploit based on the explanation.
Just now, I reread the node interface. Ten chains including BTC, ETH, SOL, and TRON are still halted; only AVAX, BASE, XRP, and RUNE itself are operational. The official team hasn’t given a recovery time.
If you want to swap across chains, first check the status of the routing chains. Don’t force deposits on halted chains. During those few minutes when funds are in cross-chain transit, the protocol vault is the backstop. If the vault itself has a hole, it has to close temporarily.
When the nodes reopen ETH, I’ll come back and explain exactly what the patch changes.#OpenAI financing target lowered, Anthropic credit risk under scrutiny
"OpenAI financing shrinks, valuation cools down"
Financial Times revealed that OpenAI has cut its financing target from $30 billion to $20 billion, with valuation dropping to $1.25 trillion, and some investors reducing their commitments.
Blackstone downgraded Anthropic's rating outlook, fearing it may only achieve BB speculative grade after listing, causing subsequent debt costs to rise directly.
High computing power expenses and tighter primary market reviews mean it depends on whether OpenAI's financing deal closes in Q2. $BTC Capital Flow Review $BTC $ETH
BTC's fake drop to accumulate, ETH takes over, where are the arbitrage opportunities?
Ignore the candlesticks, focus on the chips. The latest spot capital flow shows that the main forces are undergoing intense "high-low switching":
1. BTC's fake drop is a real buy: Although there is a short-term outflow, the 24-hour net inflow is as high as +61.66 million. The main forces are using the pullback to wash out and accumulate, solidifying the long-term bullish pattern.
2. ETH/SOL blood absorption: ETH (6h +16.65 million) and SOL continue to see inflows. The capital spillover effect is obvious, the ETH/BTC exchange rate rebound window has opened, presenting paired trading opportunities.
3. USDC bullets loaded: USDC 24-hour outflow -63.09 million, old hotspots like XRP are bleeding. Stablecoin outflows mean funds are converting to spot, preparing to boost new hotspots.
The market is in a "index sets the stage, individual stocks perform" phase. It is recommended to adopt a neutral strategy: go long on strong (ETH/SOL) and short on weak (XRP) to hedge market risk and earn relative alpha returns. $LIT This sharp rally in LIT is basically just shorts being squeezed out; the spot market hasn't followed at all.
There was 270 million in contract volume in one day, but the spot market has actually been experiencing net outflows. The fees are negative interest every day, clearly a fake rally pushed up by liquidating short positions.
Forcing it up at this level is just making room for a year-end escape. With a 3.4 billion FDV, 50% of the tokens held by the team and investors are about to unlock soon. The selling pressure is a known factor written into the contract. Expecting this small amount of pure leverage funds to absorb the massive sell-off of half the supply is wishful thinking.

👇Oil is heating up, while gold and silver are taking a hit
These three can't be viewed separately right now; they're linked in a chain.
Oil prices remain above 100, with WTI around 102, Brent just over 111. OPEC+ just decided over the weekend to continue no production increase in December, and the export disruption in the Middle East hasn't been resolved. High oil prices keep inflation from coming down; September's PCE is 3.6%, core at 3.1%, exceeding targets for 68 consecutive months. With inflation not easing, the probability of a Fed rate hike in December has been pushed to around 78%, and the 10-year US Treasury yield is hovering around 5%.
Meanwhile, gold and silver are the ones being suppressed. Gold at 3884, silver at 49; silver has dropped nearly 9% in a week, and gold has retraced almost 30% from its yearly high. Non-yielding assets naturally suffer when risk-free returns are around five percent.
But here's the twist: the Middle East situation itself supports gold and silver as safe havens, but right now, interest rates and a strong dollar are overshadowing that. So it's not that gold and silver aren't wanted; they're just temporarily pressed down by stronger forces. Silver ETFs are still increasing holdings, gold ETFs haven't moved much, and funds haven't completely fled.
My view is simple: without oil cooling down, gold and silver will struggle to rebound strongly. Watching oil prices and rate hike expectations is more useful than focusing on gold and silver's own price charts. I'm not rushing to take a position at this point; I'll wait until the chain loosens.
Just my personal speculation, not investment advice. On October 30th, during that sharp crash, Big Brother Maji Huang Licheng trended again. His ETH long position on Hyperliquid, leveraged 25 times, was liquidated 8 times consecutively within 6 hours, wiping out his position entirely, leaving his account balance at one point with only $1.5 — roughly 40 TWD when rounded. Data shows that this account has accumulated losses of about $37.11 million since May 2025, with nearly $7.95 million lost in the last 30 days alone. Most people would just laugh at this point: the liquidation king got liquidated again. But I watched the aftermath for three days, and the more I looked, the more I felt this wasn’t so simple. On the day of liquidation, he immediately transferred $250,000 into the account and reopened longs, with $ETH, $HYPE, and $BTC all going up together, totaling about $5.88 million in leveraged longs. By November 1st, his ETH long position had increased to 2,925 coins, with an unrealized profit of over $70,000. What if he ran out of money? He sold Bored Apes — BAYC #950 and #5310 were already sold over-the-counter, and he had previously sold Mutant Apes to cover margin. At this point, here’s my judgment: Big Brother Maji isn’t really trading, he’s managing a balance sheet. For ordinary people, liquidation is the end; for him, liquidation is just part of the process. Because beyond his positions, he has a continuous stream of ammunition: entertainment income, NFT inventory, and his own fame. The reason he was able to grow his account from less than $60,000 to $12.25 million in August this year was precisely this kind of "loss then🔥Diving deep into borrowing data in the early morning, the more I look, the more anxious I feel!
BTC, ETH, and SOL long positions are simultaneously accumulating borrowed amounts, with leveraged longs becoming increasingly crowded, while shorts remain almost inactive. When the vast majority of leveraged funds cluster on the long side, it often signals lurking liquidation risks, and a rapid washout could happen at any moment.
$BTC｜Long borrowings: 1507 BTC, short borrowings: only 68.54 BTC
$ETH｜Long borrowings: 16,400 ETH, short borrowings: only 874.9 ETH
$SOL｜Long borrowings: 119,500 SOL, short borrowings: only 3430.47 SOL
On one side, longs are aggressively adding leverage; on the other, shorts are hesitant to move, creating extreme imbalance in positions. Coupled with Federal Reserve officials signaling rate hikes, the market shows huge divergence in expectations for December’s rate path, with external macro factors hanging like a knife.
Crowded longs are the most vulnerable to any negative news. Once the wind shifts, a cascade of liquidations could come very quickly.

$BTC $ETH $SOLBoss Shi bought over 20 million, but don't rush to call the bottom 💰
At 5 a.m., someone bought 239 $BTC in one go at an average price of $79,149, spending nearly 20 million dollars. The number is indeed intimidating, but breaking it down, it's just a large-scale absorption. 🧮
He also opened a 10x long position: 150 coins at 76,738, direction upwards. 📈
But how much one person buys doesn't change how many sell orders remain in the market. The position only shows he's willing to buy at this price; after buying, where the price goes depends on how many chips the sellers still hold. ⚖️
Don't automatically translate large purchases as "the bottom has been reached." The real signal is not who spent how much, but whether the sell orders are exhausted and if the price can hold steady. ⏳
Only when sell orders stop pushing the price down can the bottom possibly emerge. 🧊#美联储官员释放加息信号，12月预期仍存分歧 #OKX、ICE与Trade.xyz联手，推动永续合约进入美国合规市场 #加密行业协同守护资产安全 U.S. Midterm Elections Approaching: How Political Uncertainty Will Disrupt U.S. Stocks
With the U.S. midterm election voting approaching, control of both houses of Congress is set for a reshuffle. Political uncertainty has become a significant disruptive factor for the current U.S. stock market, with capital already pricing in policy expectations based on different election outcomes.
Historically, markets tend to be more volatile before midterm elections as capital adopts a wait-and-see approach due to unclear policy directions and uncertain regulatory expectations. Once the election results are finalized and clear, uncertainty diminishes. Historically, the S&P 500 has a very high probability of positive returns in the 12 months following midterm elections. The market often experiences a recovery rally, generally favoring a "divided Congress," where the two parties check each other, making it difficult to pass radical legislation that drastically changes industry rules, thus enhancing policy stability.
By sector, different election outcomes lead to structural differentiation: technology, AI, and storage sectors will be affected by antitrust and computing power-related regulatory expectations; energy and healthcare sectors will also see valuation fluctuations depending on the policy preferences of the two parties. However, it is important to note that Federal Reserve interest rates, corporate earnings reports, and profit cycles remain the core determinants of the overall direction of U.S. stocks. Elections serve only as a temporary catalyst and are unlikely to reverse the existing trend.
Currently, the market faces multiple variables simultaneously: a hawkish Federal Reserve, a cluster of tech giant earnings reports, and the election, making volatility prone to remain elevated. Going forward, key focus will be on congressional control after the election and the corresponding industry regulation and fiscal spending expectations. $GOOGL $SNDK $INTC "Federal Reserve Expectations Tug-of-War, Retail Investors Don't Steal the Show" (¬_¬)
📊 Market Status:
Officials hawkish, market suppressing prices, essentially a game of expectations; core PCE remains around 3.1%, inflation hasn't cooled down, policy won't easily turn around.
✅ $BTC: Repeatedly hit within the range, shrinks when hawkish signals come, breathes easier when no rate hike expectations arise; incremental funds absent, ETFs lean short-term, many positions above are trying to break even, rebounds easily face resistance.
✅ $ETH: Weakly follows, no chance if BTC is sideways, falls faster when BTC pulls back; ecosystem lacks breakout points, funds can't catch, falling more is not a buying reason.
✅ $XAUT: Safe-haven nature steadier, officials' tough talk can't change inflation and geopolitical risks, central bank buying still supports; if data proves high rates can't hold, gold may show independent resilience.
❌ Premature moves: November 6th nonfarm payrolls are the main event, right now is just the appetizer, don't guess the policy's trump card.
Core analysis: Don't get itchy hands, don't rush to bottom fish, wait for key data to land before acting. #FederalReserveOfficialsSignalRateHike, December expectations still divided#OKX, ICE, and Trade.xyz join forces to promote perpetual contracts entering the US compliant market
ICE, the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange, has partnered with OKX and Trade.xyz to build an independent trading and clearing system based on Hyperliquid's underlying technology. They plan to introduce 24/7 perpetual contracts into the US regulatory framework, covering categories such as crypto, stocks, commodities, and forex. This marks a landmark integration between traditional financial infrastructure and crypto-native trading.
On the market front, HYPE has strengthened against the trend, driven by compliance narratives, with a weekly peak increase of nearly 15%, reaching $97, and currently retreating to around $88. The positive expectations have been partially realized.
Core boundaries must be clarified: responsibilities among the three parties are clearly divided. ICE holds the license and is responsible for clearing, KYC, and risk isolation; Trade.xyz provides product design; OKX handles retail traffic. Only the order book is retained on-chain, and HYPE itself is not directly included in the compliance system.
There is no clear timeline for regulatory implementation yet. CFTC approval and joint venture FCM registration are key milestones. This is currently a phase of long-term expectation speculation, a typical "buy the rumor, sell the fact" market. It is unwise to blindly leverage for short-term speculation based on news; waiting for substantial implementation signals is safer.
$HYPE $OKB [Controversial Opinion] Those who hold positions waiting to break even are not waiting for the market to recover, but for liquidation. If you disagree, come argue. Last week, my account lost 613 USDT: CT 20x full position, with an unrealized loss of -423. I asked seven friends; five said "wait for a rebound," two said "cut losses," and I chose the latter. Three days later, it dropped another 15%—if I had listened to the majority, my position would have been wiped out, not even a single bullet left. The truly chilling fact is this: when the unrealized loss was -423, it needed a 7% rise to break even, but only a 5.2% drop to liquidate. You think you're "holding for a rebound," but in reality, you're buying a negative expectation lottery ticket with less than 40% win rate, and the trend is draining you daily. A 50% unrealized loss requires a 100% gain to break even—holding a position is not waiting to break even, it's making it harder for yourself. Some say the market will come back. Yes, BTC will come back, but you're holding a new coin with only 19% circulation and locked supply at the top—the premise of mean reversion is that the asset is still alive. Conversely, "the market makers just profit by triggering stop losses"—this is half true; stop loss hunting does exist. But if you get stopped out losing 5%, and hold on to lose 100%: getting stopped once means you're still alive, holding on means zeroing out, and you don't even have the right to be hunted anymore. After cutting losses, I reversed and bought more at the PUMP bottom—the bottom spike at 0.00376 recovered the day I entered, +80 U in two days. If I hadn't cut losses on the CT position, that bullet wouldn't have existed at all. The truth is, cutting losses is not the end, it's the freight to move your principal to the next opportunity. Controversial opinion: in the futures market, "cutting losses" and "staying alive" are synonymous.SNOW total trading volume in 24 hours is 18 contracts. Not eighteen thousand, but eighteen contracts. The full-day amplitude is 2.01 points (0.66%), from 307.24 to 305.23.
From 02:00 to 06:00, five consecutive 1H candles had zero trades, and the closing price stayed exactly at 305.65; at 07:00, a single 1 contract trade opened at 305.89, and at 08:00, another single contract trade occurred. This price level is drawn by no trades, not defended by anyone—MA20 at 306.09 is also a fake number, weighted from twenty candles of 0 and 1, neither able to suppress nor support.
Only two real trades: at 22:00 on 11-01, 3 contracts dropped to 305.28; at 07:00 on 11-01, 3 contracts lifted to 307.38, with nothing but air in between.
The opening at 21:30 is what counts. If it closes above 307.24 with volume ≥ 50 contracts, pull back to 306.3~306.8 to go long, stop loss at 305.20, target 310.20, risk-reward ratio 2.6.
If it closes below 305.23 with volume ≥ 50 contracts, rebound to 305.8~306.1 to go short, stop loss at 307.30, target 302.50, risk-reward ratio 2.8.
Orders in the vacuum don’t count, wait for real trades.
$SNOW
(Not investment advice, trade at your own risk)From my perspective on unlocking, I first assess the risk-reward structure and do not immediately interpret a “large amount” as bearish. The data listed in the information is: $HYPE will unlock on November 5, valued at approximately $15.72 million, accounting for 0.08% of the circulating supply; AVAX will unlock on November 8, valued at approximately $14.42 million, accounting for 0.30% of the circulating supply.
My judgment is that this is more like an observation window for supply pressure, not a verdict for price decline. The unlocking amounts for both are close, but AVAX’s circulating proportion is higher; judging by this indicator alone, AVAX’s relative supply change is more worth monitoring, and risk should not be ranked solely by USD amount.
Unlocking means tokens become tradable, but does not mean all will be sold immediately. I separate whether recipients sell and whether the market can absorb the supply. Here is my speculation: if new sell pressure is obvious and absorption is weak, the probability of a bearish scenario rises; if the market has already priced in expectations and actual selling pressure is limited, betting on a price drop solely based on unlocking may not be cost-effective.
For me, only when the potential return covers the cost of a wrong judgment is this kind of event speculation worth studying; lacking absorption information, I prefer to draw fewer conclusions. Facing this $HYPE and AVAX unlocking, do people value waiting for absorption confirmation to increase winning odds more, or taking on the potential odds of uncertainty in advance?今早我犯了一个代价不小的错误：先看日线，再看小时线。顺序一反，结论全错。日线上$ZEC只跌2.23%，看起来温和得像无事发生；可一小时级别它暴跌3.50%，凌晨就被扫出局。同一时刻，$SOL的一小时是+0.26%、日线+1.21%，两个时间框架全为正。而$BTC一小时-0.23%、日线-1.19%，$ETH一小时-0.15%、日线-0.29%，双双走弱。四个标的，三种方向，我却用一句“顺势”把它们塞进同一个剧本。 真正的问题不在行情太难，而在读数的优先级颠倒了。先读日线等于先读结论，再看小时线才是看过程——而市场永远先动过程。$ZEC的短线仓位就是这样被一根小时线清掉的，日线的“轻微”根本来不及救场。更关键的是，我把四个币当成一盘棋，用一个方向套所有标的，结果$SOL明明在涨，我却按普跌去推演。 第三个误判更隐蔽：把缩量当成离场。全网总规模仍守在1358亿美元，量能收缩不等于资金撤退，多数人只是按兵不动。缩量是观望，不是投降，我却把它读成了卖方信号。 这里有一条值得记住的判断：分化市里，时间框架的优先级比方向判断更值钱，先看小时再看日线，矛盾时以短周期为准。这句话可以直接拿去复盘任何一From the perspective of the crypto circle now,
The decline caused by the Binance hack has ended,
But the subsequent trend is not about the crypto circle,
It depends on the US stock market.
There are two unfavorable factors,
First, the sharp drop in US tech stocks last Thursday and Friday,
It's hard to say this correction is complete at this point,
Monday will most likely see another drop.
Second, Anthropic plans to go public in mid-November,
(most likely the week of 11/16)
It will withdraw 60–100 billion USD from the market,
Delivering another blow to the already shaky AI bubble.
Looking back at the recent SPCX IPO,
It withdrew 86.2 billion USD from the market on June 12,
The fund withdrawal period was from May 20 (S-1 filing) to June 10 (institutional cutoff),
While BTC dropped 24% from May 26 to June 5
(from 78080 down to 59131).
Anthropic’s fund withdrawal period is from October 26 (S-1) to the week of November 16 (institutional cutoff),
If we mark it roughly,
The decline period starts on November 1.
Of course, BTC had just surged significantly during SPCX’s IPO,
While BTC had just dropped significantly during Anthropic’s IPO,
So we can’t simply mark it the same way,
But we still need to prepare for a potential decline.
I plan that if BTC breaks below the previous low support level,
Just like on October 31,
I will open hedge short positions again,
Wait for it to drop to 74~75k,
Or close the shorts if it bounces back :) To pour some cold water first, the fact that a stablecoin can be redeemed for USD does not mean every holder can directly exchange it for USD from the issuer. When I see such news, I usually look for the threshold: don't automatically assume that the channels available to institutions are also your own exit route.
This time it's about Ripple's stablecoin RLUSD: direct redemption for USD requires having an approved client relationship; selling on exchanges or depositing into Earn for lending are subject to different rules than direct redemption. My judgment is that interpreting it as "ordinary users can unconditionally redeem for USD anytime" is an overestimation. There are two reasons: selling on exchanges depends on market takers, which is not the same as direct redemption; if market takers are insufficient, the exit experience may be compromised, which is my speculation. Earn involves an additional lending arrangement, so you can't endorse it by the USD redemption mechanism; users need to look separately at the lending terms and exit conditions.
Of course, those optimistic may also be right; having access conditions doesn't mean the mechanism lacks value. If the redemption channel for approved clients operates smoothly and the trading side has continuous liquidity support, I would reduce concerns about exit risk. But these need to be verified by actual performance, not just by the phrase "redeemable for USD." Regarding RLUSD's set of rules, do you lean long or short? Do you value the existence of the redemption channel more, or whether ordinary users can directly use it? Share your reasons.I don't play with high leverage. When I see orders like this, I habitually look at the risk first, then the direction. Monitoring shows that the wallet Core Trader 14 just opened a long position on SUI with 10x leverage, with a nominal position of about $360,400. This is just an opening position; whether it will be profitable or not is still unknown. As for me, I hold without moving and don't take others' opening positions as my own buying reason.
My judgment is that this order looks more like a bet on short-term price movement and cannot be directly regarded as evidence of a long-term bullish outlook on SUI. The reason is simple: opening a long position only indicates a willingness to take exposure to an upward direction at this moment. The monitoring does not show the holding period or a complete hedging arrangement, so just looking at the direction can lead to overinterpretation.
Furthermore, long-term investors can wait, but leverage may not be able to wait. Roughly calculated at 10x, if the price moves about 10% against the position, it could consume most of the initial margin; considering maintenance margin and other factors, actual forced liquidation may happen even earlier. Even if the direction eventually goes right, the intermediate volatility might kick people out first, and that is why I am reluctant to touch it.
A large position size does not necessarily mean a more reliable judgment; we don't know the financial background behind it. It's okay to be slower; leverage risk must be prioritized over returns. For friends holding SUI long-term, when seeing such a 10x long position, will you adjust your holding plan or just treat it as a piece of short-term information?Satoshi Nakamoto created peer-to-peer, sovereign-free, freeze-resistant electronic cash. Today, the vision has not completely vanished but is entangled layer by layer by U.S. financial instruments, with vulnerabilities continuously exposed. First, disintermediation has become empty talk. The vast majority of tokens are held in centralized exchanges, where U.S. authorities leverage long-arm regulation to access transaction data and can freeze assets at any time, handing over control of private keys to others. Second, the US dollar stablecoin monopolizes the on- and off-ramp channels, reducing BTC to a trading asset within the dollar ecosystem, significantly weakening its independent currency attributes. Third, on-chain traceability technology breaks anonymity; as soon as assets are converted or moved in or out, they can be sanctioned and blocked, leaving censorship resistance only as a half-broken function of on-chain transfers. The token distribution structure has also completely deviated. A large amount of tokens are concentrated in institutions and ETF funds constrained by Federal Reserve policies, deeply binding coin prices to dollar liquidity. The authorities do not need to control nodes; they only need to manipulate institutional funds to influence the market. A longer-term risk lies in the underlying elliptic curve algorithm, which faces the risk of being cracked by future quantum computers. Bitcoin governance is rigid, making it difficult to quickly upgrade the cryptographic system. Of course, Bitcoin has not been completely destroyed: the public chain distributed network cannot be shut down, and the native community with self-custody cold wallets still holds to its original intention. However, the narrative of free wealth for the masses has completely collapsed. It is trapped in a cage built by U.S. regulation, stablecoins, and on-chain tracking, and can no longer return to its original ideal course. Has the direction of ETF funds changed? Institutional sentiment can no longer be hidden 📉
Yesterday, the US spot BTC ETF saw a net outflow of $643 million, after four consecutive days of net inflows, basically giving it all back in one day. ETH was even weaker, with a net outflow of $156 million, marking five consecutive days of outflows. 😮
This is not just small retail moves behind it. When the FOMC did not raise rates, institutions bought BTC for four consecutive days; once the PCE data was released and rate hike expectations heated up, funds quickly retreated. A single-day outflow of $643 million looks more like institutions rapidly adjusting their portfolios. 🧐
ETF flows are the most straightforward indicator of institutional sentiment: continuous inflows indicate bullishness, continuous outflows indicate bearishness. Now BTC ETF has just turned to outflows for one day, but ETH ETF has been outflowing for five days straight, showing institutions are more cautious about ETH. ⚠️
The key focus next is on ETFs: if net outflows continue, BTC will face further downward pressure; only a sustained return to net inflows will suggest a true bottom. Funds don’t lie, keep a close eye on this indicator. 👀📊On October 31, the Coinbase Bitcoin premium index dropped to -0.2037. The meaning is straightforward: the same BTC is cheaper on Coinbase (U.S. regulated market) than on Binance (global market). The U.S. spot buying is relatively weak, or selling pressure is heavier, so the pricing power is temporarily not in Wall Street's hands.
1. Negative premium ≠ immediate crash. It measures "who is buying," not "whether it should fall." Historically, there have been many times when the U.S. stood aside and Asia took over, and the market later experienced a major uptrend.
2. Don't equate negative premium with "all institutions have fled." ETF and OTC channels bypass Coinbase spot, so real institutional demand is not fully reflected in the order book spread.
My judgment:
This is not a bear market coming, but a "U.S. liquidity vacation." The Fed's high interest rates + macro risk aversion mean regulated funds are unwilling to catch a falling knife at high levels, but long-term on-chain holders have not loosened their grip. This situation most easily leads to — prolonged sideways movement, washing out weak hands, premium grinding at the bottom, then one day flipping positive, and the market truly starts fresh.
Spot: don't chase highs, buy back in batches after key support retests, grid trading is more comfortable than chasing rallies;
Futures: negative premium + volume contraction = false breakout high zone, strictly control leverage, stop loss before opinion;
Watch for reversal signals: premium turning positive consecutively + ETF net inflows returning + U.S. stock risk appetite warming up — the confluence of these three signals means "Americans are back."
Long term, my bullish logic on BTC remains unchanged, but in the short term, respect the capital structure: any rebound without confirmed U.S. buying should be treated as "borrowed upside." #苹果新CEO迎来iPhone18首份成绩单
Apple's new CEO's first report card: revenue can exceed expectations, but the quality of growth is thinning
iPhone 18 Pro global first sales year-on-year only +3.1%, China +29%, US and Japan declined, growth almost relies on the Chinese market alone. US users feel the upgrade is not obvious, and price increases have suppressed the willingness to upgrade.
Financials exceeding expectations have some caveats: demand was pulled forward before the price increase; gross margin is expected to fall to 47.6%, storage costs are rising. Essentially, revenue is driven by price rather than product strength.
The real test for Tim Cook is not this quarter: whether price-driven growth can continue, the absence of AI narrative, and competition from Huawei and others remains tough. Conclusion: a pass at the start, but not enough to confirm demand.Based on the latest data, the crypto market is experiencing an epic short squeeze rally.
From the liquidation data, BTC and ETH show a significant one-sided bias. BTC's total 24-hour liquidations reached $24.41 million, with short liquidations at $18.16 million far exceeding longs; in the past hour, short liquidations were a hundred times that of longs. ETH's 24-hour liquidations hit $17.84 million, with short liquidations dominating in the last 4 hours. Accompanied by a sharp price surge (BTC approaching 88,000, ETH breaking 2,400), a large number of shorts were instantly liquidated, clearly showing short squeeze characteristics. Extreme one-sided liquidations can easily trigger a "chain stampede," driving asset prices higher. Recently, BTC open interest has shown pulse-like surges, with intense battles between longs and shorts at this level, and a large influx of leveraged funds.
Trading volume reveals the real driving force. In BTC trading volume, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) leads with 10.258 billion, surpassing Binance's 6.015 billion, indicating that the rally is strongly driven by massive Wall Street institutional funds. For ETH, CME ranks third with 2.118 billion, showing a sharp rise in institutional allocation demand. CME's top position not only represents a huge capital scale but also signifies that crypto assets are accelerating their integration into the traditional financial system. Large-scale positions by traditional institutions often reflect their strong bullish expectations for the medium to long term, providing a solid foundation for the market.
Currently, the market is completely dominated by bulls and institutional funds, with short squeezes resonating with incremental capital, creating very strong momentum. However, extremely frenzied rallies often come with intense shakeouts; investors chasing highs must implement risk control and avoid blindly shorting against the trend First, look at the densest orange bars (100x leverage), which have two peaks. The area from 78556 to 78836 above is the densest, with the highest bar reaching 19.5 million, representing the heaviest long position chip stack in the entire market. Below, from 76932 to 77212, there is also a cluster of 100x long positions, which are bottom-fishing positions that got trapped.
Next, look at the two cumulative lines: the red line (long position liquidations) has dropped steadily to nearly zero, indicating that most long positions below 77000 have already been liquidated; the green line (short position liquidations) has climbed from 78000 to 200 million, showing that this rebound has liquidated a large number of short positions, perfectly matching the "1-hour short liquidation of 9.59 million" shown in the liquidation chart earlier.
This chart translates to: the current price is 78000, with 78800 above being the largest long position magnet. Once the price hits this level, it will trigger trapped long positions and short-term profit-taking above, making it easy to be pushed back down. Below, 77000 is another layer of long positions; if the price truly retraces there, it will find support but may also trigger another wave of liquidations.
Combining the liquidation structure, this rebound is mainly driven by short position closures, not incremental buying. I believe the pressure is heaviest near 78800, and if it can't break through, it will retrace to 77000.
At the middle position of 78000, don't chase longs or shorts; wait to reach the 78800 resistance level before considering shorting, and watch for support at 77000 before considering going long.
#美联储官员释放加息信号，12月预期仍存分歧 $BTC $ETH $SOL What I care more about is that the estimated daily income per unit of computing power has dropped by 17.54%, rather than the new high in total miner revenue. Looking at this news from a macro and funding perspective, the key is not how much money the industry has made, but whether this income can cover costs and sustain cash flow. Another contrast in the material is: Bitcoin fell that month, yet total miner revenue hit a new stage high.
My judgment is that this puts more direct operational pressure on miners than it does indicate the direction of $BTC price. Total revenue is the network's overall account, but hash price is closer to the income ability per unit of computing power. A bigger revenue pie does not mean every participant is more relaxed; I am reluctant to read it directly as positive news.
According to my speculation, if income per unit of computing power continues to be under pressure, and the financing environment remains tight, then miners with thin cash reserves and high costs may rely more on selling output to maintain operations; if liquidity improves and financing becomes smoother, then this pressure may not immediately translate into market selling pressure. There are costs and balance sheets in between, so conclusions should not be drawn just from headlines.
Therefore, I tend to see this as a warning signal for mining cash flow rather than evidence of a market trend reversal. Going forward, I will pay more attention to financing conditions. What macro factor is everyone most concerned about now: interest rate path, dollar strength, or overall liquidity? Which is most likely to affect miners' turnover pressure? BTC has risen above 78,000, but the real "triple test" is just beginning—can your position hold up?
📉 $BTC (78,026): Back above the 78,000 mark, but the U.S. midterm elections on November 3, the nonfarm payrolls on November 6, and tech earnings reports are coming one after another. 77,000 is the short-term lifeline; if nonfarm payrolls exceed expectations, high interest rate expectations will suppress risk assets again. This is the calm before the storm, not a reversal.
🔴 $ETH (2,268): Spot ETF has set a record with 23 consecutive outflows, losing over $1 billion in October. The daily death cross green bars have not shrunk; although there is a divergence pattern on the 4-hour chart, structurally it is still a weak rebound in a downtrend continuation, with key support below at 2,172. Institutions are withdrawing, staking is happening on-chain; who is right or wrong will soon be clear.
🟡 $OKB (113.25): Despite widespread positive news from cooperation with ICE, the price has slowly declined from 113 to around 111, and daily trading volume has shrunk to just over 12 million. X Layer's Gas revenue is not flowing back to OKB; positive news is hitting the price, indicating that capital is voting with its feet.
Summary: Macro tests are imminent, ETFs continue to bleed, OKB's positive news does not push price up. After this week's triple test, do you think BTC will break upward or fall below 77,000? Place your bet in the comments below 👇
#BTC现货ETF重回流入，ETH资金持续流出 I'll break down this liquidation chart for my brothers. In 24 hours, $118 million was liquidated, affecting 45,000 people, with longs accounting for 62.8% and shorts 37.2%.
First, look at the total volume: $118 million, nearly ten times less than the $1 billion two days ago. The most panic-driven liquidation phase has passed; now it's a moderate digestion.
Focus on the structural changes — in the last hour, $10.96 million was liquidated: shorts liquidated $9.59 million, longs only $1.36 million. In 4 hours, $22.48 million liquidated: shorts $13.95 million, longs $8.53 million. What does this mean? The price is rebounding, and all liquidations during the rebound are shorts.
This is the opposite of two days ago. Back then, the sharp drop caused one-sided long liquidations. Now, the price has rebounded from 76,260 to 78,300, forcing short positions hidden at high levels to stop out. Shorts being forced to close pushed the price higher, creating a short-squeeze style rebound.
But looking at the 24-hour span, longs still account for 62.8%, indicating that the majority of trapped long positions haven't been cleared yet; only short positions have been liquidated in the short term.
The largest single liquidation was a $1.68 million long position on the XPL altcoin on Hyperliquid, again retail investors bottom-fishing altcoins and getting trapped. Altcoins are volatile, and retail traders like to heavily bet, making them most vulnerable to a single sharp move.
I believe this structure indicates that the short-term rebound is driven by short position liquidations, not by new capital entering the market. Once most shorts are liquidated, the rebound momentum will weaken and there will be a pullback.

Don’t mistake the drop for direction. ETF is bleeding, hackers are dumping, institutions are paving the way—three forces pulling simultaneously, BTC fiercely defends 78,000, who will let go first?
$BTC: $78,113. ETF has recently lost 643 million, but the funding rate remains positive, indicating bulls are still "paying to hold on." 80,000 is the emotional watershed; if it can't hold, any rebound is just a mirage built by leverage.
$ETH: $2,269. Spot ETF has a record 23 consecutive outflows, and more troublingly, hackers are laundering stolen funds by converting them into ETH through DeFi, causing continuous dumping. 2,214 is the core bottom line; breaking below it will accelerate the decline.
$SOL: $94.16. Hackers have frantically dumped 970,000 SOL (about $95.9 million) to swap for BTC, the most direct selling pressure yesterday. But at the same time, the Solana Foundation announced an institutional-level settlement plan, and a Hong Kong dollar stablecoin has also been launched. $94 is the first judge in this tug of war.
Summary: On one side is the outflow from ETFs, on the other is the undercurrent of institutional landing. Do you think this wave is institutions washing out weak hands using bad news, or are they truly retreating? Which one do you hold? Take sides in the comments!
