CORE Coin Prediction: 10x Is Just the Start, 60x Is the Real Target? Understand Its Explosive Logic in One Article
Currently, CORE is priced around $0.017, with a circulating market cap of only $25 million. The massive oversell has led many investors to imagine: first capturing a 10x valuation recovery as the sector warms up, and if a BTCFi bull market arrives, pushing for a 60x rally. Explosive logic: CORE relies on Satoshi Plus's unique consensus, focusing on Bitcoin staking yield. The dual staking mechanism requires holding CORE to unlock higher BTC staking APY, giving the token real utility demand. Bitcoin's stock asset volume is huge; once the BTCFi sector becomes the bull market's main theme, a vast amount of idle BTC will seek on-chain yields. As a BTCFi sector token with a small market cap, CORE offers strong valuation elasticity. Additionally, the token supply has a hard cap, with block rewards released over an 81-year long cycle, supporting a long-term scarcity narrative. However, to realize 10x or even 60x targets, multiple risks cannot be ignored: 69 million ghost tokens left from the hard fork could crash the market anytime; independent validators continue to withdraw, leaving network decentralization and security risks unresolved; SatPay keeps being delayed, and the on-chain buyback revenue flywheel has yet to start; competitors like Babylon and Stacks keep vying for BTC staking users in the same sector. In summary: 10x is the theoretical recovery space under BTCFi rotation, while 60x is a low-probability event in an extreme bull market. Do not take 60x as a guaranteed outcome The night before the Federal Reserve decision: BTC holds firm at 80,000, ETH retreats to 2,300, ANTHROPIC surges against the trend
Extreme market divergence before the decision: whales reduce holdings, Ethereum weakens, while ANTHROPIC Pre-IPO contracts surge against the trend, pushing AI valuation to 2 trillion, tearing perceptions apart.
$BTC: Fragile balance at 80,000, currently at $80,628 (down 0.31%). Buy orders strengthen between 79,000-80,000, but whales reduced holdings by $664 million in 24 hours. ETF inflow of $110 million in a single day cannot cover October's net outflow. 80,000 is a dense zone; losing it means support is thin.
$ETH: A do-or-die battle at 2,300, currently at $2,337, down 13.6% in October. Daily chart breaks channel, active buy-sell ratio drops to 0.973. 2,300 gathers on-chain cost and 200-day EMA. ETF bleeding combined with whales moving in 5,000 ETH makes the defense heavy.
$ANTHROPIC: IPO documents submitted, Pre-IPO contracts at $188.98 (implied valuation 1.88 trillion). Due to specification differences, there is a huge price gap among pools. Bull addresses are six times the bears, but large position increments lean bearish. Essentially, it is an on-chain game for AI pricing power.
The market is in a "pre-event wait-and-see" mode: BTC/ETH weakly consolidating awaiting signals, ANTHROPIC shows independent frenzy. Mainstream coins focus on support defense, ANTHROPIC is suitable as a high-risk satellite position with strict position control.

If the Federal Reserve keeps interest rates unchanged, it will not signal a rate cut, and the market will first trade on inflation and may preemptively absorb the shock.
Currently, the market is trading inflation expectations. Oil prices have fallen from nearly six-month highs, which does not mean supply risks have disappeared. The market mainly focuses on the impact of oil prices on inflation and how long interest rates will remain high.
If the Federal Reserve's statements are not more hawkish, the market may see growth and liquidity. Bitcoin may not continue to follow inflation concerns, which could very likely lead to a stronger US dollar and US Treasuries, with BTC dipping and ETH falling even more.
#SK海力士Q3营收首破100万亿韩元 #RobinhoodQ3营收增长，净利润下降 $BTC $ETH $ZEC Currently, in this market situation, even if I personally open a position, I would get stuck!!!!
First, let's look at $BTC, which after consolidating around 79,500 for a day, rebounded and hit a high of 81,787 before reversing direction. It is currently pulling back from the rebound and continues to decline!!!
Similarly, $ETH consolidated below 2,300 for a whole day and then rebounded along with BTC, hitting a high of 2,387 before reversing. It is still in the process of pulling back from the rebound.
Gold, AI chips, storage, and others are also pulling back from their rebounds!
Everyone knows that at 2 AM tonight, the Federal Reserve's FOMC meeting will announce the interest rate decision. Just a few hours ago, the market was steadily rallying but suddenly reversed. I took a rest and noted a few things for reference:
1. After the midterm elections, Trump may launch a war against Iran again, and he also said that anything is possible, nothing is absolute.
2. Iran clearly shows willingness to pause the US-Iran war. However, the conditions for the pause seem to be difficult to negotiate, so subsequent statements are more aggressive.
3. MicroStrategy has stopped buying BTC during this period and used $200 million to purchase preferred stock. I speculate this is an emergency hedge + hedging against the FOMC meeting + risk reduction.
It is also possible that before the FOMC meeting results are announced, there will be a short squeeze to remove long positions and liquidity. There might also be a second rebound tonight at midnight, fully igniting sentiment + a big rally!!!
#10月FOMC利率决议即将公布 #10月FOMC利率决议即将公布
At 2:00 AM Beijing time on Thursday, the FOMC will announce its interest rate decision; at 2:30 AM, Waller will hold a press conference. The current market expects about a 90.6% probability that the rate will remain unchanged at 3.75%-4.00% in October, so a “no rate hike” is basically priced in. What truly impacts the market is not the result itself, but the post-meeting statement and policy signals.
The biggest risk now is "buy the rumor, sell the fact." If the Fed keeps rates steady but continues to keep the option of a December rate hike open, signaling that high rates will persist longer, risk assets could easily pull back sharply in the short term. BTC, ETH, and other crypto assets have already seen a rally, and profit-taking may surge once the news is released.
For trading, this is not the time to heavily bet on the outcome. My approach is simple: protect principal first, lock in profits second, and only then aim for trend gains. If you already have unrealized gains, prioritize reducing positions or raising stop losses; if your position is heavy, don’t treat an unchanged rate as if all the bad news is priced in.
Next, focus on three key points: first, whether the Fed emphasizes inflation stickiness; second, whether Waller mentions the possibility of a December rate hike; third, whether BTC and ETH can hold key support levels after the news drops. The market is always right, but traders must manage risk.
Conclusion: Don’t bet on the FOMC outcome; wait for the market to speak first. Binance Adds Five Tokenised Securities as Margin Collateral
Binance announced that five tokenised securities, including GE Vernova and AppLovin, will become eligible collateral assets for certain margin-trading accounts. The move expands collateral options for eligible users, although availability depends on regional restrictions.
#Binance #Crypto #Tokenization #Finance What is Maximum Drawdown? Why can a long-term profitable trading strategy still experience unbearable consecutive losses?
In cryptocurrency trading, some strategies may have positive returns in the long run but suffer significant losses along the way. If traders do not assess the potential drawdown of their accounts in advance, they may be forced to exit before the strategy recovers. Maximum drawdown is an important metric to measure this risk.
First, what is maximum drawdown?
Maximum Drawdown (MDD) refers to the largest percentage drop in account net value from a previous peak to a subsequent trough during a given observation period. It reflects the largest decline the account has endured, not just the final profit made.
Second, how is maximum drawdown calculated?
The formula is: Maximum Drawdown = (Historical Peak - Subsequent Trough) ÷ Historical Peak × 100%. For example, if the account net value drops from 10,000 USDT to 7,000 USDT, the drawdown is 30%. To recover back to the original 10,000 USDT, the account needs to rise about 42.9% from 7,000 USDT, indicating that recovery after losses is not symmetrical.
Third, why is maximum drawdown so important?
Fourth, how to reduce drawdown risk?
Fifth, how to correctly understand drawdown?
In the next article, we will continue discussing: What is position sizing? Why can an oversized position cause an account to exit prematurely even if the trading strategy has an edge?How much can this rebound bounce back? Let's crunch the numbers first. Strategy is about to release its quarterly report, and the market is taking $BTC climbing back from the lows to 82,000 as a positive sign. Based on the holdings, the space for this rebound isn't that big.
The publicly disclosed holdings are around 640,000 coins, with an average cost price near 74,000. With the coin price at 82,000, the unrealized gain per coin is only about 8,000 USD; when BTC was above 100,000, this number was over 20,000.
This rebound relies on the price moving just above the cost line again, and the position size has been increasing much slower recently compared to before. How much unrealized gain can bounce back basically depends on how far the coin price is from the previous high.
The cost side is rigid. The preferred shares and convertible bonds require fixed quarterly payments; the unrealized gains fluctuate, but these expenses won't rebound along with them.
So, the unrealized gains line in the report is more interesting when compared to its own previous quarter's peak than to the total amount itself.
#Strategy财报前瞻：BTC账面收益大幅反弹 $BTCQ: Is the difference between prediction markets and just buying coins really that big?
A: I feel like if you misjudge buying Bitcoin, you can still stubbornly say to wait a bit longer; but prediction markets have to settle according to the agreed time and rules, you can't just wait for the market to turn around. The odds look like how confident everyone is, but whether the market is active or not, and where the funds flow, also affect it—it’s not a forecast of facts. I originally just wanted to watch how everyone guesses, but got stuck on the settlement terms. How exactly is this “event” considered to have happened?🚨 $PEPE IS MAKING NOISE AGAIN! 🐸🔥
$PEPE surged over 15%, approaching the crucial $0.000005 resistance.
👀 Reports from Arkham Intelligence suggest Justin Sun-linked wallets hold around $51.25M worth of PEPE, fueling speculation across the market.
But can PEPE break through resistance and extend the rally?
Key things to watch:
- $0.000005 breakout
- Whale activity
- Fed decision and market reaction
A clean breakout could attract more buyers, but rejection may trigger a pullback.Bitcoin is now around 81,000. That voice in your head is asking: "If it bounces from 79,000 to 81,000, is it worth chasing?"
First, answer these four questions:
1. Is 81,000 (the 50-week moving average) holding steady? The price surged to 81,240, but the key is whether it can close above this level on the daily chart. If it doesn't hold, it's a "failed test."
2. The 4 billion short positions have been liquidated; where is the next wave of buying? A short squeeze is a one-time event. Next, ETF inflows need to spread from IBIT to other funds. If only IBIT is buying, the breadth is insufficient and the momentum limited.
3. Today is the FOMC meeting; will Powell be hawkish or dovish? The market is pricing in "no change." The real variable is the wording. If he emphasizes inflation risks, the probability of a rate hike in December will rise, and the upside above 81,000 will be capped.
4. Where will you set your stop loss? From 81,000 down to 80,000 is a 1.2% drop. From 81,000 up to 83,000 is a 2.5% gain. The odds seem favorable, but the liquidation line below (around 76,566 with 1.572 billion long liquidations) is farther away, while the resistance above (around 84,036 with 1.068 billion short liquidations) requires a larger buying volume to trigger. $BTC $ETH $ZEC #10月FOMC利率决议即将公布 #SK海力士Q3营收首破100万亿韩元 #RobinhoodQ3营收增长，净利润下降 What is trading expected return? How to combine win rate, average profit and loss, and trading costs to determine whether a strategy has a long-term advantage?
In cryptocurrency trading, a strategy making money in the short term does not mean it is effective in the long run. Occasionally catching a big market move may mask the problems of the strategy itself. Trading expected return helps us evaluate a strategy from an overall perspective, rather than judging based on a few successes or failures.
First, what is trading expected return?
Trading expected return refers to the average possible profit per trade when repeatedly trading according to a certain strategy. It comprehensively considers win rate, average profit, and average loss, and is an important indicator for assessing the long-term performance of a strategy, but it is not a guarantee of future returns.
Second, how to calculate it?
The basic formula is: Expected Return = Win Rate × Average Profit − Loss Rate × Average Loss. Assuming a win rate of 40%, average profit of 300 USDT, loss rate of 60%, and average loss of 100 USDT, the theoretical expected return per trade is 60 USDT, before deducting trading costs.
Third, why must costs be considered?
Fees, slippage, and funding rates all affect the final result. If the average cost per trade is 20 USDT, the above strategy’s theoretical expected return after costs will drop to 40 USDT. If costs continue to increase, a strategy that originally had an advantage may turn into a losing strategy.
Fourth, does a positive expected return necessarily mean profit?
Fifth, how to validate a strategy? $SK Hynix reported record quarterly revenue and profit, with net income up 216% YoY. Memory supply is expected to remain tight through 2030, while long-term contracts could lock in much of the 2027–2028 capacity.
$SKHYNIX, $SNDK, and $SOXL are rallying on renewed AI-driven storage demand. Fundamentals look strong, but earnings expectations and profit-taking remain key risks.
#SKHynixQ3RevenueKRW100T Tonight's hottest topic in Orbit is not the FOMC, but earnings reports. On the Creator Center's trending topics list, SK Hynix's Q3 earnings topic has 5.95 million views and 2,205 posts, with the number of posts being three times that of the FOMC topic. Hynix's Q3 earnings will be released on October 28, and SanDisk's next quarterly earnings will be announced on October 29. Storage stocks are delivering their results back-to-back this week. Crypto people are now also paying attention to earnings reports because perpetual stock contracts are held in the same account, and the volatility on earnings nights also affects the sentiment of crypto holdings. When looking at earnings reports, I only focus on three lines. The first line: look at the expectation gap, not whether it's good or bad. Whether the earnings report itself is good or not is not important; what matters is whether it is higher or lower than market expectations. SanDisk is a ready example: last quarter's revenue was $8.97 billion, earnings per share were $39.25, and the results themselves were impressive, but the stock price fell after the announcement—because the market's expected benchmark was even higher. Good earnings can lead to a drop, and bad earnings can lead to a rise; the price movement depends on the difference between actual numbers and expectations, not the numbers themselves. The second line: look at guidance, not the current quarter. The current quarter's numbers are in the past; guidance is the future. SanDisk's guidance for this quarter is revenue of $10.3–10.8 billion and earnings per share of $44–46. The market is currently trading based on this price. What really matters on the 29th is not how much it earned in the past three months, but whether the guidance for the next quarter is revised up or down. When guidance moves, the stock price moves first; the same applies in crypto: at the moment news breaks, the market always trades on#RobinhoodQ3 revenue growth, net profit decline
The most striking aspect of Robinhood this quarter is not the record high revenue, but rather "active trading, crypto dragging behind, and shrinking profits."
Q3 net revenue was about $1.42 billion (up about 12% year-over-year); net profit was about $476 million (down about 14% year-over-year), with diluted EPS around $0.51. Trading revenue was about $867 million (up about 19%): options about $399 million (+31%), stocks about $121 million (+41%), event contracts about $173 million (several times growth); crypto revenue about $120 million, down about 55% year-over-year. Net interest income was about $415 million (down about 9%). The topic page $HOOD was about -6.5%. The decline in crypto activity directly hit the broker's profit structure, reflecting the same side of the sentiment as spot $BTC sideways movement.
Do you think next quarter we should focus more on "whether the prediction market can continue to fill the gap" or "whether crypto trading volume can stabilize first"? The ETH daily chart pattern has appeared 3 times in history
📊 Market snapshot for Wednesday, October 28: ETH 2,338 (24h +0.4%)｜BTC 80,651 (+0.5%)｜SOL 101.4 (+0.7%)
I still remember the details from that day: conclusion first: ETH's current trend is much more complex than most people's sentiment.
Market sketch: ETH currently at 2,338, 24h +0.4%, amplitude 3.1%, price hanging in the middle of the daily range. This position is the most frustrating but also the most testing: staying still means leaving the decision power to the signals, not to emotions.
Price repeatedly tests the dense trading zone, indicating real money chips stacked here—not lines drawn by retail investors, but footprints left by institutions.
If volume can't keep up, pushing up just frees trapped positions; if volume expands, a pullback means those entering are doing the right thing at the right time.
No one expected this—I don't predict tops or bottoms, I only look at structure: a wide-range oscillation box structure. Until the structure breaks, all panic is just chips handed to you by others.
Feel free to leave comments with different ideas to discuss and gain true insight. Writing this also feels like making peace with those days.

#复盘 #行情分析 #临时通航协议待落地，油价风险尚未反转 "A 38.32% buffer against the daily fluctuations of $DOOD — this is the riskiest part of this position."
$DOOD multiplied 20 times, from 0.001417 to 0.00196, +766.40%. Conversely: it only needs to pull back 1.92% for that 766% gain to vanish completely.
What does 1.92% mean for $DOOD? A normal downward wick, or even a large sell order on the order book. In other words, this position doesn't require any fading of positive momentum, no trend reversal, nor deliberate shorting — just a technical correction is enough to wipe it out.
The 20x leverage magnifies the 38.32% buffer into 766%, but it also magnifies the 1.92% pullback into zero. It offers huge profits but is always ready to take them back.
The chart itself holds up: price is running high. But the key support below isn't far away.
So I never decide to exit based on "how much I've earned," only on how far the price is from my cost line. 38.32% looks like a buffer, but altcoin fluctuations never make sense.
The only move: push to break even, at worst lock in zero, and avoid expanding exposure. $IRYS $IOST #10月FOMC利率决议即将公布 BTC surged to 87,000, total market cap broke 3 trillion, but this rally was mainly driven by short squeeze rather than spot buying. In the screenshot, BTC fell back to 80,679, and the market is repricing for a "relay".
$BTC reported at 80,679.1 (+0.18%). ETF inflows over two days totaled 286 million, almost entirely absorbed by BlackRock IBIT, with overall net outflow in October. There is dense trapped volume above 87,000, making it difficult for a full breakout with just localized support.
$ETH reported at 2,338.85 (-0.30%). ETF net outflow yesterday was 60.21 million (BlackRock outflow, Fidelity inflow as hedge), showing clear institutional divergence. Price is consolidating above 2300, lacking a foundation for independent strength.
$SOL reported at 101.35 (+0.45%). SOL ETF net outflow yesterday was 19.15 million, the largest single-day outflow recently. Under the current stock game, funds have not yet rotated here.
Summary
ETF inflows are structural rather than comprehensive. BTC is supported by the top players, ETH is stuck in internal conflict, and SOL is still bleeding. Before the decision is finalized, funds are only enough for "selective defense," making a full relay difficult.
#BTC冲高$87000，加密总市值重返3万亿 The leader has something to say: The Federal Reserve decision is about to be announced, the market has warmed up in the short term, but whether the rebound can continue depends on whether funds truly follow through. 🔸 $BTC has returned near $81,000, showing some short-term recovery. The latest news shows that BTC spot ETFs have recorded net inflows for two consecutive days, totaling nearly $176 million, but $82,000 remains a key resistance level. If trading volume does not keep up, the sustainability of the rebound is still in doubt. 🔸 $ETH has risen back near $2,350, but ETF funds remain weak, with institutional funds showing a clear divergence from BTC. $2,300 is an important support level; breaking through $2,400 is needed to further improve the short-term structure. 🔸 $PEPE has strengthened with the narrative of large holders, with a single-day increase exceeding 9% at one point. However, the volatility driven by hot topics is large, so chasing gains in the short term still requires caution. 📌 Latest news: BTC exchange net outflows are about 14,942 coins, reaching the highest level in nearly five weeks, which may help ease short-term selling pressure but does not necessarily mean the price will rise. Key focus before the decision: whether BTC can hold above $81,000, whether ETH can maintain $2,300, and whether PEPE's popularity can continue.

#BTC #ETH #FederalReserve #10月FOMC利率决议即将公布 #三星Q3利润预增近8倍，完整财报即将揭晓 #SK海力士Q3营收首破100万亿韩元 What is the breakeven win rate? How to calculate the minimum win rate a trading strategy needs to cover trading costs?
In cryptocurrency trading, many people know their win rate but don't know how high the win rate needs to be to actually make a profit. If profitable trades earn little and losing trades lose a lot, even if you are correct more often, you may still end up losing. The breakeven win rate helps traders understand the minimum performance their strategy needs to achieve.
First, what is the breakeven win rate?
The breakeven win rate is the minimum win rate required to make the long-term expected return zero, ignoring trading costs. Assuming each winning trade earns 300 USDT and each losing trade loses 100 USDT, the theoretical breakeven win rate is about 25%.
Second, how to calculate it?
The formula is: Breakeven Win Rate = Average Loss Amount ÷ (Average Gain Amount + Average Loss Amount). Using the example above, 100 ÷ (300 + 100) = 25%. This means that in the long run, the win rate needs to be higher than 25% to potentially generate a positive expected return.
Third, why might the actual required win rate be higher?
Fourth, how to evaluate your own strategy?
Fifth, avoid only chasing a high win rate.
What really matters is not guessing right every time, but whether long-term profits can cover losses and costs.
In the next article, we will continue discussing: What is expected return? How to combine win rate, average profit and loss, and trading costs to determine if a strategy truly has a long-term edge?Recently, $BTC and $ETH have indeed experienced a wave of oversold recovery, making the market look much livelier, and many people have started loudly proclaiming a "bull market is quickly returning."
However, based on market data, I still maintain a cautiously bullish stance; it is too early to talk about the start of a major bull market ✅
To judge the authenticity of the market, you can't just look at the "duet" of Bitcoin and Ethereum. The core feature of a real big market move is capital overflow and widespread altcoin rallies. Currently, the mainstream coin rallies are more about capital risk aversion and short-term sentiment recovery, with most altcoins still lying at the bottom, lacking sustained profit-making effects. A market supported solely by heavyweight coins is essentially a technical rebound, not a trend reversal. Next, focus on two points: whether Bitcoin can stabilize at a high level to maintain confidence, and whether altcoins can shift from rotation to broad gains. Only when large and small caps resonate together can a market reversal be confirmed.
At this stage, do not blindly miss out, nor chase highs recklessly; stay rational. Wait for the market to give a resonance signal before making a strong move. Without resonance, treat it as a consolidation market and simply buy high and sell low. $SNDK Looking at the same evening market chart, people who focus on height and those who focus on breadth might interpret two different market conditions. I usually put these two groups together to avoid one standout number coloring the entire chart red.
At 8 PM Beijing time, the Hyperliquid perpetual contract public market shows: $BTC at $81,022, up 1.39% in 24 hours, ETH and SOL up 1.45% and 2.04% respectively. Among contracts with over $20 million in trading volume, kPEPE leads with a 15.46% rise, while ENA lags at -0.24%; the fear and greed index is 51, neutral.
Height vs. breadth, this time I lean more towards the latter: in this snapshot, divergence carries more information than a broad rise. kPEPE’s gain is indeed eye-catching, but a single contract leading doesn’t directly imply the whole sector is heating up; BTC, ETH, and SOL all rose but clearly lag behind the leader, indicating that using the strongest performer to represent average assets can easily overestimate overall market enthusiasm.
My judgment is that this is better suited as an observation list rather than evidence of a comprehensive strengthening. If the gains later spread to more assets, I will pay more attention—that would further validate my analysis. For the next market chart, which would you prefer to see: the leading contract continuing to push the ceiling higher, or more mainstream coins catching up and expanding the scope of the rally? $BTC My strength is indisputable, right? Just after mentioning Bitcoin, it started to fall all the way down. Don't you want to hear more reasons to be bearish? 🤬🤬
Also, I just mentioned the 81000 support, which has now been broken, indicating that the downside space has opened up. If the US stock market weakens after opening, it will continue to trigger market fear and cause a stampede-like sell-off, possibly dropping all the way down to around 78000!
From the chart perspective, this is a typical bearish pattern with a high probability of going down, and the current rebound is very weak and powerless. Although contracts are in a net inflow state, the K-line changes are minimal, meaning any buying pressure is immediately suppressed, which is a dangerous signal.
Considering the Federal Reserve decision coming early this morning and these whales are reducing their holdings, are you still going to go against the market? What do you think?Tonight's focus, besides watching interest rates, is the tone of Powell's speech, which is the key.
BTC is consolidating around 80000, with everyone shrinking their positions and hesitant to act prematurely. ETH, SOL, and ZEC are more volatile; although the sentiment looks hot, the actual support strength is average.
Interest rate news has basically been priced in already. The key is his comments on December:
If hawkish, coins like ETH and SOL will drop more sharply than BTC;
If dovish, the major market will rally first, then gradually spread to altcoins, not a full surge at once.
If U.S. bonds and the dollar strengthen, BTC needs volume support to break through 82000.
If the speech is mild, ETH at 2400, SOL at 110, and ZEC at 1350 are just observation points; don't chase directly.
If you want to go long, you need to see support on pullbacks and volume expansion; once hawkish, leveraged positions are easily crushed, and altcoins fall faster. $BTC $ETH $SOL #10月FOMC利率决议即将公布
The October FOMC interest rate decision is about to be announced. The Federal Reserve's decision is ready to be released, and the market generally expects no rate hike.
Regarding the future path of Federal Reserve rates, it is highly likely that rates will be maintained tonight, but there may be a rate hike cycle in the future. Be cautious of a hawkish stance from Fed officials.
Additionally, due to geopolitical risks, around the midterm elections, whether the military conflict between the US and Iran escalates further remains a tail risk that cannot be ignored.

Guan Ge's view: currently bearish, first target 0.9, second target 0.55, stop loss reference at previous high. ETFs are selling, whales are buying — In October, BTC ETF net outflows narrowed to $26 million, while ETH ETFs saw outflows of $1.32 billion, setting a single-month record for the year. The phrase "institutional demand weakening" is only two-thirds correct.
$BTC: $80,686. Last Thursday and Friday combined outflows totaled $774 million, but Monday and Tuesday saw inflows of $286 million, with IBIT accounting for the majority. Total ETF net assets still exceed $100 billion, and weekly outflows represent only 0.2% of total assets. A few large accounts are rebalancing, not a systemic Wall Street withdrawal.
$ETH: $2,338. ETF outflows are the heaviest among the three, but whales increased holdings by 166,000 ETH within 72 hours, with a nominal value of about $415 million. The concentration of stablecoins on exchanges is also rising — the spot selling pressure from ETF redemptions is being absorbed by large on-chain addresses.
$SOL: $101. TVL dropped 13.4% over four weeks to $5.72 billion, but daily DEX volume remains at $1.45 billion, exceeding the combined volume of ETH and Base. Capital is contracting, but trading activity has not collapsed — this is "bleeding but not dying."
Summary: Passive ETFs are reducing positions, while active funds are selectively taking over. Institutional demand has not weakened overall but is shifting from "broad allocation" to "structural selective preference."
#BTC与ETH现货ETF同步流出，机构需求转弱了吗？ What is the risk-reward ratio? Why can a trade still have long-term value even if the win rate is not high, as long as risk control is reasonable?
In cryptocurrency trading, many people focus excessively on the win rate, believing that frequent correct judgments are necessary to make money. But what truly affects long-term trading results is not just the win rate, but also the amount of profit and loss per trade. The risk-reward ratio is an important tool that helps traders evaluate whether a trade is worth participating in.
First, what is the risk-reward ratio?
The risk-reward ratio usually compares the potential loss of a trade to the expected profit. For example, planning to lose 100 USDT with a target profit of 300 USDT corresponds to a risk-reward ratio of 1:3. The profit target here is just a plan and does not guarantee the final outcome.
Second, why can you still profit even with a low win rate?
Assuming 10 consecutive trades with a win rate of only 40%, where 4 trades each earn 300 USDT and the other 6 each lose 100 USDT, the total profit would be 600 USDT, before deducting fees, slippage, and other costs. This shows that win rate and individual trade profit/loss need to be analyzed together.
Third, is a higher risk-reward ratio always better?
Fourth, how to formulate a reasonable trading plan?
Fifth, how to avoid common mistakes?
In the next article, we will continue discussing: What is the breakeven win rate? How to calculate the minimum win rate a trading strategy needs to cover trading costs and avoid long-term losses?Countdown to the Federal Reserve decision, the critical BTC battle is about to ignite!
$BTC dipped to $79,700 last night and rebounded to around $81,000 this morning, with bulls and bears still battling repeatedly in the key range.
Tonight at midnight, market focus shifts to the Federal Reserve interest rate decision. Most expect rates to remain unchanged, but what truly impacts the market is Powell's statements on future policy and whether there will be new changes to the December rate path.
Galaxy's research director believes the market may have exited the previous bear phase and is now closer to an accumulation window. However, capital flow remains pessimistic: spot BTC ETFs have seen net outflows exceeding $770 million for two consecutive trading days, Strategy has paused increasing Bitcoin holdings and is repurchasing preferred shares, and it remains to be seen if institutional buying can regain momentum.
📊 Key price levels to watch:
- $82,000: Only by stabilizing above this can the bullish momentum be confirmed.
- $79,700: Short-term battleground between bulls and bears; repeated failure to hold this level signals downside risk.
- $77,600: Critical support; a decisive break below may lead to further testing of $75,000.
Additionally, about $11 billion in BTC options will expire on October 30, with $78,000 as the largest pain point worth monitoring, though it does not necessarily mean the price will gravitate toward this level.
#OctFOMCDecisionDueSoon Wednesday closing, in one sentence: a rebound before the storm. $BTC reclaimed 80,000, and even touched 81,000 overnight.
Three things to note today:
First, shorts were squeezed, with 130 million liquidated across the network, 60% of which were shorts; the rebound mainly relied on their covering;
Second, whales flipped to short, with on-chain whales net short overall for the first time since March, countering the 110 million inflow from ETFs;
Third, the schedule is packed: in a few hours at 2 AM, the Fed decision, and on Friday, 12.2 billion in options expire.
ETH is hovering around 2,350, SOL holding at 100, both considered stable.
I won’t stay up tonight; my position was adjusted long ago: no watching the show above 80,000, wait and see if it breaks below.
Are you setting an alarm to watch the decision, or sleeping and checking the results in the morning? $BTC $ETH #比特币矿企Riot获Anthropic算力大单 The $BTC short squeeze rally to 81,823 in the afternoon was basically given back by 8 PM. Binance spot price dropped from 81,342 to 80,714 within an hour, now hovering around 80,700, with a 24h increase of only 0.56%.
$ETH looks worse, falling from 2,362 to 2,335, giving up the afternoon high of 2,387, with the 24h gain shrinking to 0.38%.
This indicates bulls are retreating; Binance BTC contract open interest decreased by over 450 contracts in an hour, about 36 million USD, ETH open interest dropped by over 9,200 contracts, about 21 million USD. The long-short ratio for BTC fell from 1.94 in the afternoon to 1.86.
CoinDesk reports that liquidations across the entire network in the past 24 hours totaled 184 million USD, with BTC accounting for 56.4 million and ETH 46 million, more than half combined. Funding rates are now BTC 0.0056%, ETH 0.007%, indicating leverage is cooling down.
My view is that with only a few hours left until the 2 AM Beijing time interest rate decision, everyone prefers to exit positions rather than gamble. The ETH long-short ratio is still at 2.99; if it were truly hawkish, ETH bulls would be hit before BTC.#SK海力士Q3营收首破100万亿韩元
Hynix's performance this quarter can't be summed up by just "exceeding expectations": revenue surpassed 100 trillion KRW for the first time, and AI storage premiums pushed profit margins into an exaggerated range.
Official: Q3 revenue approximately 104.62 trillion KRW (YoY about +328%, QoQ about +32%), operating profit about 83.33 trillion (YoY about +632%), operating margin about 80%; net profit about 39.78 trillion. HBM4 shipments ramped up, server DDR5 strengthened; the company states DRAM/HBM orders are basically booked through 2029, and plans shareholder returns around 100 trillion KRW this year. Korean stocks rose in sentiment, topic page $SKHYNIX up about +7.7%. For $BTC, this signals on the risk appetite side that the "AI chain is still profitable," but don't mistake sentiment for trend before the rate decision.
Do you trust more in "HBM shortage lasting until 2029," or "high profit margins themselves are a peak warning"? $SKHYNIX $SKHY $BTC Tonight, the real pitfall for BTC and ETH is not whether the Fed will raise interest rates, but what exactly Powell will say! The market has basically priced in a hold, but September's US inflation is still at 3.7% year-over-year, and the 10-year US Treasury yield has climbed back above 5%. More importantly, the market is still trading the possibility of a rate hike in December. Does no rate hike mean good news? Don't be ridiculous! A steady rate doesn't mean liquidity will improve.
If Powell signals hawkishness, the dollar and Treasury yields may continue to strengthen, and this rebound in BTC could easily be dampened. Conversely, if he signals dovishness, the dollar and yields will fall together, giving risk assets a chance to continue rebounding.
My judgment remains cautiously optimistic on the short-term rebound, but the overall trend is still bearish! Tonight, don't bet on a one-sided move in advance; focus on how the dollar and Treasuries move after the press conference, and whether BTC and ETH can hold their ground. If the dollar and yields rise together, don't mistake the initial rally for a trend to chase!$SPCX
Is it expected to become a leading US stock within three years?
Certainty is further enhanced — the core business itself is growing rapidly, combined with strong expectations of asset mergers with Tesla and others, creating a dual driving force resonance and greatly expanding the imagination space.
First, look at the fundamentals: the launch business monopolizes over 80% of the global orbital share, reusable rockets reduce costs to a fraction of competitors, creating very high barriers; Starlink covers 164 countries with tens of millions of users, direct phone connections + continuous government and enterprise orders, cash flow is becoming increasingly stable; partnering with xAI to build a distributed computing power network, high-value AI orders keep coming, and the new growth curve is clear.
More importantly, the merger expectation: both under Musk’s system, SPCX and Tesla have strong business synergy — Tesla provides ground energy storage and in-car terminals, SPCX is responsible for space-to-ground communication and interstellar transport, Starlink connects to Tesla’s vehicle system and energy network, directly activating hundreds of millions of existing users, with both parties’ revenue and profits expected to rise simultaneously.
If subsequent equity integration and overall listing occur, the valuation logic will be completely restructured, no longer just a single aerospace company, but a technology giant spanning new energy, AI, and aerospace.
In short: high growth in core business + Tesla synergy + asset integration expectations, triple benefits combined, strong potential to become a leading US stock within three years Bitcoin reclaimed above 80,000 in less than a day, a stark contrast to the previous four-day consolidation, indicating that the selling pressure below 80,000 is indeed light. At the current level, 81,500 to 82,000 is the first resistance in this downturn. If it breaks above 82,000, the next target is 83,000. The 83,000 mark is the dividing line for whether this correction is over; if it holds above that, the correction end mentioned by Morgan Stanley will be confirmed. On the downside, 80,000 has become support again. If this level holds for more than three days, the bottom structure is basically confirmed. My trading advice has changed from waiting to trying small long positions, but the position size must be small because no one can predict tonight's meeting outcome, and there is also a 11.7 billion options expiry on Friday. These two events combined mean any heavy position is a gamble on luck. The truly comfortable time to add positions is after the meeting results are out. If the tone is dovish and it holds above 82,000, then adding positions will have a much better risk-reward ratio. In the narrow alleys of the market, don't rush to burn your chips just yet
ETH is hovering around $2300 again, rising and falling, pacing back and forth like in a narrow alley. What makes people even more nervous is that more and more retail traders are going long on ETH—crowded longs are often not a good sign. Before the interest rate decision lands, whether ETH can hold steady at $2300 remains questionable.
ZEC, on the other hand, is like a "narcotic" for short-term traders, going long then short, with volatility even fiercer than secondary mainstream coins. Unfortunately, those trapped can only watch and wait for an opportunity to test the waters with isolated margin. Remember, high volatility doesn't mean easy profits; isolated margin is the bottom line.
DOOD has a bit of a mischievous vibe, rising then falling, but as long as it doesn't break the previous low, a few more days of such gains could really push it up again. However, the direction is unclear right now, so watching is more profitable than acting.
"Rules must be established for trading to avoid burning chips." When the path narrows, don't force your way through.

#10月FOMC利率决议即将公布
#BTC现货ETF资金反复，市场买盘能否企稳？
#交易之声：你的经验值得被听到 When I, the charting expert, see this kind of news, my first reaction is: the lines haven't even been drawn yet, attention might have already shifted to another sector. 📈 To really see how the market responds, I will watch the volume-price coordination, moving average structure, and the pullback support after a rally in the related sector. I won't rush to explain the news with just one bullish candlestick.
According to CryptoSlate, Robinhood's event contract revenue reached $173 million, surpassing cryptocurrency trading revenue; meanwhile, cryptocurrency revenue declined year-over-year, but the company's total revenue hit a record $1.42 billion.
My judgment is that this has greater commercial significance for event contracts. Interpreting it directly as bearish for the crypto market is a bit of an overreach. Revenue exceeding crypto business indicates it already holds weight in the platform's revenue structure; however, a company's business changes cannot be directly equated with the entire crypto market's capital flow.
I will also pay attention to whether the market is re-evaluating business potential or just using the headline to hype sentiment. If the related sector shows volume growth and support afterward, I will take this round of attention more seriously; if it's just a spike followed by insufficient volume, I tend to see it as a short-term topic. This is my observation framework, not a market move that has already happened.
When encountering this kind of cross-sector news, what indicators do you usually use to determine if the market trend can continue: volume, moving averages, or RSI?A few days ago, I turned a few hundred dollars into 1,300 dollars and have already withdrawn it. Today, I continued trading with the profit U and reached over 700 dollars.
Why do I insist on withdrawing every day? It's because I want to secure the money I’ve earned first, to avoid getting carried away when things go well, betting bigger and bigger, and eventually giving back the profits and even losing the principal. When a real opportunity comes, I might end up without any bullets.
In the event contract circle, there are indeed many experts who can earn several thousand a day. But many of them have substantial capital, with thousands or tens of thousands of U in their accounts, which is a different starting point from small capital.
Why do I insist on withdrawing and sticking to a fixed amount for steady trading? Mainly because I want to do two things well.
First, to see how small capital can accumulate step by step. Many brothers might only have 100 or 200 dollars, so how to make every trade count with limited principal, gradually improve trading, increase win rate, save up the principal, and strive to move from underwater to above water — this is what I want to seriously focus on.
Second, how to make profits as sustainable as possible, rather than just having one good day. This is actually the hardest part. Earning tens of thousands in a day looks exciting, but behind it might be the risk of losing tens of thousands in a day. When earning, you feel like you understand everything; when losing, you realize the previous profits can’t withstand a few times of getting carried away.
So, rather than chasing how much to earn in a single day, I prefer to set the goal of making a few hundred dollars every day, stopping when the goal is reached, and withdrawing when necessary. Don’t rush to recover losses; first maintain the rhythm, then there’s a chance to talk about long-term profitability. This is the mindset I want to share with everyone.📊 Crypto Market Flash｜Can the rebound continue before the Fed decision?
🚀 $BTC — Bitcoin retakes $81,000, up about 2%. However, derivative positions have limited growth, so the strength of the rebound still needs verification. $82,500 is a key resistance level; if the Fed signals hawkishness, the market may come under pressure again.
🔻 $ETH — Spot ETF funds continue to flow out, $2,300 is an important support, and only by firmly holding above $2,400 can short-term sentiment improve further.
🐸 $PEPE — Whale holdings news draws attention, price surged nearly 9% at one point. But there is still obvious selling pressure near $0.000005, so chasing the rally carries significant risk.
📰 New market updates: Asian chip stocks strengthen, SK Hynix's Q3 operating profit reached 83.3 trillion KRW, boosting tech stocks and crypto market risk appetite. Meanwhile, the market is still awaiting the Fed's interest rate decision; whether the rebound continues depends on subsequent capital flows and policy signals.
⚠️ Reminder from the leader: A rebound driven by news does not equal a trend reversal; control risk and always set stop-loss orders on your trades.
#BTC #ETH #PEPE #SKHynixQ3RevenueKRW100TDon't be fooled by the candlestick charts! The "phantom iceberg orders" of these 16 $BTC on the order book are actually a liquidity graveyard prepared for the bulls!
Brothers, candlesticks can be drawn, but the traps hidden in the order book reveal the real killing intent of the major players.
Look at the screenshot: I entered a short position at a high of 83,436.2, and now it has dropped to 81,468.8, locking in a steady 7.06% profit.
Why am I confident to short when the screen is full of bullish calls? Understand this and you'll get it:
First, fake order book. Watch the right side depth closely—at 81,468.7, suddenly a huge buy order of 16.16 BTC appears. In a downtrend, this is definitely not real support but a "mirage" set by the major players to trick you into thinking the price won't fall further so you enter to catch the falling knife. Once they cancel these orders, this spot becomes a liquidity vacuum graveyard.
Second, emotional backlash. Bulls are extremely crowded now, but no real incremental funds are entering. A volume-less rebound is a castle in the air; once the threshold breaks, a bull stampede liquidation will fuel pushing our profits higher.
My liquidation price is well above 170,000, with a safety buffer as thick as a fortress wall. Don't be deceived by false prosperity; patiently wait for liquidity to collapse and then close the net!
$ETH $ZEC #10月FOMC利率决议即将公布 $ETH just dropped so sharply. The one-hour candlestick formed a big bearish candle, with trading volume nearly four times the usual. The price fell from above 2360 down to around 2330. This rapid drop was indeed fast, but the key lies in the volume-price coordination afterward.
Looking at the 15-minute chart, it's very clear that after the bears increased volume, the follow-through momentum was completely lacking. After the previous two bearish candles with high volume pushed the price down, the trading volume quickly shrank. The latest candlestick's volume has already reduced to half the average. After the price dropped to a low level, there was no continuous selling pressure to push it further down. The volume surged and then immediately contracted, indicating the bears' strength could not be sustained.
More importantly, the price hit the daily chart's previous low support near 2330. When the daily support level was touched, the volume decreased. The buying at the daily bottom is strong, and the selling pressure has been mostly absorbed.
I decisively lean bullish. The price hitting the daily support with rapidly shrinking volume means the bears' momentum has been exhausted, and the market is likely to stabilize first and then rebound.
$BTC $SOL #RobinhoodQ3营收增长，净利润下降 Just broke through then pulled back, be cautious chasing highs
$BTC: Resistance near 81000
BTC intraday peaked at 81123, then pulled back to around 80990, with a 24-hour gain narrowing to about 1.2%. The 81000-81300 range still holds resistance, leaving a short-term upper shadow. Support is first seen near 79500 below; if broken, further support may need to be sought.
$ETH: Fluctuating near 2300
ETH is oscillating between 2297-2364, currently around 2350, with heavier resistance near 2367; short-term focus is on whether it can hold above. 2300 remains a short-term reference level.
Data observation: Approximately $147 million liquidated across the network in 24 hours, with a higher proportion of short positions. This rally saw significant short covering; active buying still needs monitoring. Funding rates remain neutral.
Personal view: Stay cautious ahead of the FOMC decision. For BTC, watch if 81300 can be reclaimed; for ETH, watch the 2300 support and wait for clearer signals.
#OctoberFOMCInterestRateDecisionComingSoon Mentioned this afternoon to be cautious of a sharp rise followed by a fall, and now the adjustment has arrived
$BTC has fallen below 81,000, with short-term focus on support around 80,000 and 79,000.
$ETH has dropped to around 2340, with short-term attention on support near 2300.
In terms of rhythm, after the daytime rebound, volatility increased during the US session, which is a common recent phenomenon.
Personal view: no rush to chase longs at this stage; waiting for stabilization signals would be more prudent.
#OctoberFOMCInterestRateDecisionComingSoon I also love watching meme jokes, but they really slow me down from spending money. On-chain transactions are lively, but whether the pool can catch the sell orders, I think that's a different matter. If the money is just moving around between a few local dogs, no matter how good the trading volume looks, it doesn't necessarily mean much new money is coming in. Sometimes I haven't even recognized the chart properly, and everyone has already moved on to the next pool. This round of liquidity moving houses doesn't even require packing up cardboard boxes.The Supreme Court Grand Chamber of Thailand has done something: it officially recognizes Bitcoin as "property" under criminal law, with greater impact than expected.
The case was quite ordinary. A victim was repeatedly pressured to exchange about $50,000 into Bitcoin and transfer it to a pre-contacted gang as instructed, after which the gang disappeared. The prosecution charged it as a property crime but got stuck on a more fundamental issue — the harmed item was a string of records in an electronic system; does criminal law recognize it as property? If not, the elements of fraud and embezzlement would be voided.
On October 28, ruling number 4929/2569 provided the answer. It did not take a technical route but returned to the simplest standard: is this something valuable and controllable? The judgment first confirmed that Bitcoin has value according to the market price; having a price means it cannot be treated as mere bookkeeping symbols; then added that having buyers means it can be exchanged for cash, and its convertibility brings it back to everyday economic exchange.
The Grand Chamber also responded to the question "Can intangible things be the object of crime?": as long as it can be controlled and transferred, it is sufficient to fall under criminal law protection. The court also emphasized that ordinary people can hold it, ruling out the notion that it is "a technical tool only for institutional use."
For victims, there is no need to prove "whether what I lost counts as property" anymore; there is now a judicial basis for conviction and asset recovery. For $BTC holders, this is a reference line.
The boundary must be clear: this umbrella only covers the criminal law level. There has been no statement from the Thai SEC or central bank, and the ruling did not discuss regulatory framework adjustments. The door for law enforcement is open, but the door for regulation remains closed.UNI has real revenue and ongoing buybacks, yet remains under pressure. SUI is struggling to convert ecosystem spending into token demand, while PUMP faces a more immediate unlock risk. The key difference is sustainability: UNI needs revenue to translate into value, SUI needs stronger ecosystem activity, and PUMP needs speculative demand to return. Buybacks can reduce selling pressure, but they cannot guarantee a price recovery. The real test is whether demand can outlast supply. With the October"80,000 is back, but it wasn't the Fed expectations that pushed it back"
Today Bitcoin returned to 80,882, up 1.58%, with an intraday range of 79,506 to 81,300. Last week it even fell below 80,000, dropping to 79,146 over the weekend, then recovered two days later.
None of the three driving forces behind this rebound came from the Fed: SK Hynix's strong earnings reignited AI confidence, the news of Anthropic filing an S-1 boosted tech risk appetite, and signs of easing in the Middle East situation caused oil prices to fall from 117. Cryptocurrencies rose along with tech stocks, not because of "rate cuts in sight"—this distinction is important because the Fed will stress test this rebound at 2 a.m. tomorrow.
Let's look at the quality of the rebound. The two MACD lines converged to the same value, indicating bearish momentum has indeed faded but hasn't turned positive yet; RSI is 45.4, neutral to slightly weak; Fear & Greed Index is 51, neither high nor low. The 20-day moving average at 81,911 and the 50-day moving average at 81,934 almost overlap, forming a dense moving average wall just below 82,000, while the 200-day moving average is far below at 73,108.
The capital flow doesn't look like a "rush to buy." ETF net inflow on Monday was 176 million, positive for the second consecutive day but moderate in scale; Coinbase premium had been negative continuously before, indicating that US spot buying hasn't urgently returned. This looks more like pre-event position replenishment rather than a trend reversal.
The FOMC pricing itself is already very full: the market is over 90% betting on maintaining 3.75%–4.00%. What really determines the direction is the wording from Waller—if it hints at another rate hike in December (about 70% probability), this 2% rebound could be wiped out overnight; if the wording is neutral and tomorrow night's PCE is moderate, then 82,000 might be challenged.
Key levels: resistance at 81,900–82,000 moving average zone; support at 80,000 and 79,500. The space for rebound looks smaller than the space for falling back.
Discussion: Is this rebound a "return of risk appetite" or "pre-event position replenishment"?
I lean toward the latter. A true return requires seeing Coinbase premium turn positive, ETF volume continuously increase, and options skew turn negative—none of which appeared today. The characteristic of replenishment is: whoever acts first when the event lands runs first.
Vote: After 2 a.m. tomorrow, what do you think will happen first—A. Surge to 82,000; B. Retrace to 79,500; C. Fake drop before the statement; D. Sideways until PCE.
I choose C. When volatility is compressed to the year's low and leverage isn't cleaned up, fake moves often come before the real direction.
