Seeing this, I want to give newcomers a lesson: two people solving the same problem with the same answer does not mean the answer has been verified. When I look at multiple people going long in monitoring, what I care most about is whether the risk is truly diversified, not just that there are a few more votes in favor.
This time, two wallets used 10x leverage to go long on ZEC within a short period, totaling 369.46 coins, with a nominal value of about $434,400. 📌 Assuming the position remains unchanged, if the price moves 1% in the opposite direction, ignoring fees and other costs, the combined unrealized loss of the two positions would be about $4,344, which will not offset each other just because they belong to two different wallets.
My judgment is: this only shows the direction is consistent, it cannot be taken as double confirmation. The same coin and same direction bear the same price fluctuation; monitoring also does not tell us whether each has hedged or how long they plan to hold. The most common misconception among newcomers is treating the number of wallets as independent evidence. If these two positions were changed to one long and one short, how would the risk differ? If anything is unclear, leave a message for Old Ma.$ZEC ZEC just made a blatant move on the market.
A whale directly spent 3.8 million USD to buy spot, then immediately placed 10 million USD worth of long contracts.
This is a typical strategy of building a base with spot and adding positions with contracts.
The spot market drains liquidity to support the price, and the low leverage clearly shows no fear of a shakeout.
With the NU7 upgrade coming next week, the clustered shorts in the market are most likely ready fuel, ready to be squeezed out by this dual-line push at any time.

Scaling networks have cheap transactions, so why might the token valuation still lag behind usage?
Between network usage and token value capture, there are fee distribution, governance rights, and supply changes in between. Judging ARB cannot be based solely on transaction count.
If the increase in activity mainly comes from subsidies, retention after subsidies end becomes critical; if real fees and sustained users improve in sync, usage growth is more solid. If the network is busy but no explainable token demand forms, I would remain cautious about the valuation.Midterm election voting has ended; will the US-Iran situation still develop in a positive direction? Simply looking at the current dynamics of the US-Iran situation, there is a major premise: the US midterm elections finished voting at 8 a.m. today, so the idea that Trump would promote US-Iran peace talks to boost votes can basically be dismissed! During the negotiations, the Strait of Hormuz in Iran was suspected of being attacked, and the Iranian Revolutionary Guard continues to attack cargo ships—why is this? #美伊谈判未突破，油价为何单日跌逾7%？ It's very simple: whether in the US or Iran, domestically or within the military, the hardline hawks prevail. Before a final agreement is reached and before orders from the top levels of government to restrain them, the military hardliners will proactively launch attacks under the pretexts of "defensive" or "regulatory" actions. This also indicates that strong hardline pressures exist domestically in both the US and Iran. What is the attitude of the US and Iran toward the Qatar agreement draft? Iran responded first with a tough stance, stating that the negotiations are not optimistic. The core threshold remains who acts first; Iran believes the US should first meet Iran's conditions before Iran can fulfill the agreement. On the US side, according to (rumors), on November 3, Forum Express cited sources from Qatar media Al-Araby Al-Jadeed saying the US has accepted a memorandum of understanding draft submitted by Qatar, and Saudi Arabia and the UAE have also been informed; the draft involves concessions on Iran's nuclear issue and partial release of frozen assets. Currently, Iran remains tough (which may also serve its domestic political direction), and non-mainstream media are also releasing$FIL FIL's actual daily storage revenue is only 4 yuan, yet its valuation is still hanging in the tens of billions.
This mechanism is so bizarre. Miners can't directly use the tokens they mine to pay for electricity or hardware costs; the first thing they do after receiving them is to dump them on the secondary market to exchange for fiat.
The more actively the business runs, the heavier the selling pressure from dumping to realize cash.
On the market, smart money shorts have pushed their positions up to $12 million, firmly holding the bulls halfway up the mountain.
In this kind of situation where it's just bleeding without any buying support, what can cause a rebound?

👇今天最值得盯的不是$BTC的横盘，而是一个18%的单日暴涨背后藏着的结构性错位：玉树流通盘与长鑫存储几乎相当，短期都没有新增解禁筹码，但前者上市以来已跌去60%，做空情绪被榨到极致；后者却在AI叙事拖累下高位横盘，明年年初还压着一波解禁。这个反差，才是多空组合真正的锚点。 我的操作逻辑很直接：做多玉树，同时做空等值的长鑫存储，思路类似买特斯拉、空SpaceX——不是赌方向，而是赌两个标的的“情绪弹性”不对称。玉树的空头已经没多少下探空间，60%的跌幅把恐慌盘洗得差不多了，任何边际买盘都能撬动剧烈反弹，今天18%就是证据。长鑫那边恰恰相反，高位横盘意味着获利盘没走，解禁预期像悬顶之剑，AI板块一回调它就被动跟跌，空头逻辑反而顺畅。 关键在于资金效率。这种对冲结构可以用几倍杠杆放大，两边保证金互相对冲，占用资本远低于单边裸多。玉树反弹时多头端吃满弹性，长鑫回落时空头端再补一刀，双向贡献收益。今天玉树拉升，组合整体就是正反馈。 多数人只看到玉树涨了18%就追高，却忽略了它和长鑫之间的流通盘对等关系——这才是定价错位的根源。当两个标的筹码结构接近、情绪位置却天差地别时，价差回归的概率远高于单边Order Book Strength Ranking
5-minute median slippage, estimated by order book
After amplifying orders for both tokens, slippage for both buying and selling increased significantly, with $AKE showing the highest simulated slippage at the 100,000 scale.
$AKE simulated slippage for 10,000 scale buy/sell is 0.26%/0.29%, and for 100,000 scale is 1.24%/1.19%. After amplifying orders, slippage on both entry and exit sides increased noticeably.
$AXIS simulated slippage for 10,000 scale buy/sell is 0.22%/0.22%, and for 100,000 scale is 0.98%/0.95%. This is a cost table, not a direction; simultaneous increase in cost on both buy and sell sides indicates overall shallow depth.There is a pretty important change in US regulation today 👀
CFTC has officially approved single-stock perpetual futures, and qualified US registered trading venues can now launch these products
I think this is worth discussing from Hyperliquid's perspective:
In the past, perpetual contracts were mainly active in the crypto market, and Hyperliquid further expanded this trading model to stocks and other traditional assets
Now US regulators are also starting to allow single-stock perpetual contracts into the domestic market
This indicates that perpetual contracts are gradually breaking through the boundaries of the crypto market
But for $HYPE, things are not that simple 🤨
On one hand, the product model has gained regulatory approval, and the entire market may continue to expand
On the other hand, compliant domestic US exchanges may also enter this field, making future competition even more intense
What I’m more concerned about is whether traditional financial institutions will choose to build their own trading venues or continue to use on-chain infrastructure
This might be more worth studying than short-term price fluctuations
#CFTC首次放行美国个股永续期货 I have been saying before that there is a major negative overhang in the crypto space: Trump is very likely to lose his influence in the midterm elections, and then the US will tighten policies on the crypto industry. So I am waiting for this dip to buy the dip. Today, the results of the midterm elections are gradually coming out, so let's talk about the subsequent trend of $BTC: Before discussing the trend, let me first explain what the midterm elections are about and what it means for Trump to lose influence, so it will be easier to discuss the price movements later. 1. Trump losing influence will bring panic to the crypto space This midterm election is for electing members of Congress. Since it happens in the middle of Trump's 4-year term, it is called the midterm election. This time, the seats up for election are 435 in the House of Representatives and 35 in the Senate. The House has a total of 435 members, each serving a 2-year term, so all seats are up for election this time; the Senate has 100 members, each serving a 4-year term, and 35 seats are up for election this time. In the US, there is a separation of powers: Congress (Senate + House) controls the budget, legislation, personnel approval, and oversight/impeachment; the President controls the executive and military; the courts handle the judiciary. Trump is a Republican. Before the midterm elections, the Republicans held the advantage in Congress: Senate Republicans to Democrats = 218 : 214 (plus 1 independent, 2 vacancies); House Republicans to Democrats = 53 : 45 (plus 2 independents). But in this midterm election, many people are dissatisfied with Trump (for example, the Iran war has caused living costs to riseGrinding for three days! Bulls and bears confront each other, quietly waiting for the first breakthrough ⚔️
Early market check: $BTC has returned to oscillate around 77,000, the previous momentum from 76,300 to 78,000 has already faded.
Market polarization: ETF outflows hit 643 million in a single day, a new high for June; Strategy continues to increase positions, acquiring another 811 BTC, holdings approaching 850,000 BTC, bulls and bears locked in a fierce battle.
The market is waiting for a catalyst: midterm elections or the fallout from Binance withdrawal issues. Withdrawal panic has eased, but funds remain cautious and hesitant to enter.
Indicators are nearing oversold, but that doesn’t mean an immediate rebound. Long-term chips are locked up, exchange inventories are low, those who wanted to sell have basically exited, purely grinding for direction.
This week’s lifeline is 76,000. Non-farm payrolls are key: only if data disappoints is there a chance for a rebound; if support breaks, look down to 73,000.
At this stage, control your hands, watch more and act less, don’t rush to bottom-fish, and don’t chase shorts.Based on the disclosed $2.51 million scale, the largest single liquidation of about $1.13 million accounts for approximately 45%; the total amount is marked as "at least," so the actual proportion could be even lower. What concerns me most is this concentration: a series of liquidation records looks lively, but the impact of large positions on the amount may be greater than the number of trades, so it cannot be directly interpreted as a widespread short squeeze failure.
① In the past hour, OKEx ETH USDT perpetual contracts recorded a total of 100 liquidations, with the largest single liquidation around $1.13 million. The number of liquidations does not equal the number of traders, nor does it imply similar position sizes; I would not interpret this as 100 independent players all misjudging the market direction simultaneously.
② Short positions account for 100% of the liquidation amount, with long positions approximately zero. This indicates the direction of forced exits within this window but does not reveal how much buying interest exists off-exchange, nor does it directly prove that the upward trend can continue.
③ This data only covers the past hour and comes from OKEx's public liquidation records. From another perspective, the shorter the window, the more easily a single large liquidation record can skew perception. Using this to judge a sustained trend, I think the evidence is insufficient.
My judgment is that this looks more like a signal of a localized leverage squeeze rather than proof that the trend has been confirmed. If subsequent liquidation amounts decline and the price remains strong, I will raise my evaluation of this rally. First distinguishing between forced liquidations and active demand is a reminder I give myself.#Circle财报在即，稳定币增长能否兑现收益？
八格牙路比特币常有所谓： 暴跌9月、暴涨10月的说法 甚至国庆行情、圣诞行情、春节行情 本质上都是刻舟求剑的周期性 历史数据确实存在倾向，但极为脆弱 看起来有「季节性」，但统计上并不显著。 样本太少（每年只有一次）、波动太大 随便把月份标签洗牌重排，很多次都会出现 类似「某个月特别强」的假象。 关于加密货币市场学术研究 也反覆指出加密货币的月份效应并不稳健。 更关键的是最近两年已经开始失效： • 2025年10月：-3.9% • 2026年10月：约 -7.3% （连续两年红色十月，是近年首次） • 2026年9月反而收涨约 +6.4% 打破了「9月必弱」的惯性 当市场结构改变（现货ETF、机构资金、 宏观利率环境、杠杆清算机制） 旧有的日历效应自然就会失真。 为什么这些「行情」 特别容易被神话化？ 1. 幸存者偏差 + 叙事需求
市场参与者天生喜欢简单、可传播的故事 「Uptober」「黑色九月」 好记、好喊、好发推，于是被不断强化 真正失败的年份则被选择性忽略。 2. 把相关当成因果
过去Q4常强，可能只是刚好叠加了 减半周期、流动性宽松、年底资金 再配置等多重因素，而不是 「因To pour some cold water first, I do not agree with directly translating this message as "completely bearish for crypto." According to Cointelegraph, the Democrats claim to have gained control of the U.S. Senate, which could change the advancement path of the CLARITY Act, reshape committee leadership, and subject Trump's crypto business to stricter scrutiny. Here it is a "claim," not all changes have been implemented yet. What I am bearish on is the policy fulfillment expectations, not just seeing the word Democrat and turning bearish.
I have two concerns: if the committee leadership changes, the bill's scheduling and negotiation priorities may shift, and the sentiment betting on quick regulatory clarity could be disappointed; if scrutiny focuses on Trump's crypto business, political controversies might crowd out legislative attention. But scrutiny targeting specific businesses does not mean the entire industry will face tighter regulation, which is also a common market misinterpretation.
Of course, the bulls could also be right. If there is a clear bipartisan advancement plan later and the CLARITY Act does not stall due to the power shift, I will withdraw my concerns about delays in the process. Don't rush to get excited, nor panic prematurely. What I will be watching next is the committee arrangements and substantive progress of the bill, not the partisan wins or losses in the headlines.$ETH
The ETF had a net outflow of 85.34 million yesterday, marking the seventh consecutive day.
The price didn't follow this trend. At 11 o'clock, the 1H candle dropped to 2225.01, which was the 24-hour low, with a volume of 2.62 million contracts. The next hour saw 2.57 million contracts, rising from 2248 all the way to 2285.85, closing at 2279. Two candles with the same volume, one pushing down and the other pulling back up.
Currently at 2278.5, up 1.35% in 24 hours. Open interest is 1.42 billion, slightly down from 1.43 billion earlier this morning. The fee rate is +0.0088%, longs are still paying.
My view: The seven days of ETF selling pressure was absorbed by a single bullish candle of equal volume on the contract side, but after absorption, leverage did not increase, and open interest actually decreased. This is not a reversal, only a partial digestion of selling pressure. For a real upward move, we need to see open interest rise along with price.
It hasn't increased.
#美国中期选举进入计票阶段，国会控制权将如何变化？ I never understood it—how could people still be buying when prices have dropped so much?
Then I realized clearly: the people spending money here don’t even look at K-line charts. Tether holds a Bitcoin reserve of 150,000 coins, valued at $11.5 billion, bought up in October. BitMNR is even more aggressive, accumulating 6.06 million $ETH over a year and a half, locked in at an average price of 3329, and just added 5,000 more on Kraken a few days ago.
One relies on US Treasury interest behind stablecoins, the other on mining farm cash flow—money is coming in every day, so not buying feels worse.
So when they drop, it’s called a discount; when I drop, it’s called being trapped. Same price level, two different lives.There is something quite counterintuitive: the market is falling, but the wealthiest group is increasing their positions, and doing so very calmly.
Tether's Bitcoin reserve has risen to 150,000 coins, with a market value of $11.5 billion, making large purchases in October. BitMNR bought another 5,000 $ETH on Kraken, accumulating 6.06 million coins over a year and a half, worth over $20 billion, at an average price of $3,329.
These two have one thing in common: the money used to buy coins does not come from the crypto circle. One relies on the interest spread behind stablecoins and U.S. Treasury bonds, the other on mining machines and electricity costs. Both have cash flow from their main business daily, unrelated to market ups and downs.
This explains a question many find puzzling—why, after such a long decline, the bottom is still being supported. The support is not from bottom-fishing traders, but from allocation investors.
My own feeling is that this type of buying has almost no reference value for short-term trading. They can endure a 50% drop or wait three years; their pace is completely different. But it is indeed changing one thing: the circulating supply of $BTC and $ETH is thinning, with more and more coins lying dormant in cold wallets.
With fewer coins circulating, the market will be more volatile—stronger on the way up, and more fragile on the way down. This is neither bullish nor bearish; it is a structural change.
What is worth pondering is: when the most stable buyers do not need to sell, who is deciding the price? Today the index didn't fall sharply, but the structure was severely torn apart.
The A-share Shanghai Composite Index only dropped 0.82%, but the ChiNext Index directly plunged 2.73%, and the STAR 50 was even worse, down 3.81%. Trading volume shrank to 1.7 trillion, 80.3 billion less than yesterday. The electronics sector saw a net outflow of 21 billion in one day, communications withdrew another 9.3 billion, and computing hardware was crushed to the ground. On the other hand, the new energy sector attracted 2.5 billion against the trend, the battery sector rebounded in the afternoon, Huangtai Liquor had a 4-day limit-up, AI comic producers Dasheng Culture and Longban Media had 3-day limit-ups, and physical AI company Suochen Technology also touched 20cm. Money squeezed out from the most crowded tech hardware moved to low-position themes and defensive directions.
U.S. stocks also went their separate ways last night. The Nasdaq rose 0.83%, the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index rebounded 2.64%, SanDisk rose over 4%, Broadcom and AMD rose over 3%, and Nvidia rose 2.26%. But Apple fell 1.97%, Tesla fell 1.32%, and the Dow was dragged into the red. Those buying chips and those buying Apple did not have the same trading day.
$BTC hovered around 77,000, with 338 million liquidated across the network in 24 hours, longs accounting for 265 million, and $ETH liquidated 48 million. The fear and greed index stayed at 33, ETFs ran over 800 million USD in six days, with BlackRock alone redeeming over 200 million. But on-chain whales reversed and added 303,000 coins, the fastest increase since February. Those in suits are redeeming, those holding cold wallets are picking up coins.
Money hasn't gone far, it's just changing seats, and changing seats is when it's easiest to get hit from both sides. When I look at this kind of order, I usually divide the position size by the leverage first, then calculate how much tuition fee you have to pay if the price moves against you a bit. A large number doesn't equal strong confidence; how much room to retreat you have is the real account.
This time, two wallets used 10x leverage to go long on $ZEC within a short period, with a combined nominal position of about $434,400. Roughly calculating by leverage, the initial margin is about $43,400. If the price moves 3% against them, the unrealized loss is about $13,000, which is about 30% of this initial margin, excluding fees and not representing the overall account loss ratio.
My judgment is: the direction has some agreement, but it's not yet stable. Two wallets moving in the same direction doesn't mean there are two independent bases; leverage amplifies the cost of trial and error; the data also doesn't show stop-loss or other account positions, so it's unclear how much they can withstand. I would choose to be cautious and not chase in based on this tip. Observing whether both sides reduce positions quickly next is more useful than just watching the opening position amount.#Circle财报在即，稳定币增长能否兑现收益？ Circle's profit core relies on USDC reserve interest income. Growth in stablecoin circulation does not equal simultaneous profit realization. Incremental earnings are largely shared with channel partners, and combined with interest rate cuts lowering reserve yields, this erodes the interest margin. The key points of this earnings report are the USDC circulation scale, on-chain payments, and AI intelligent agent scenario implementation. In the short term, if circulation steadily rises and channel risk control improves, performance will be resilient; however, the interest rate cut cycle, tightening regulation, and USDT competition are all suppressive factors. A mere surge in trading volume is difficult to convert into profit; it is necessary to look at retained funds and fee optimization. Overall expectations are cautious, and growth realization is challenging.The CFTC clearance gives single-stock perps a regulated route, but the same-day lawsuit shows that classification remains the central constraint. Cash settlement and no expiry may appeal to traders seeking continuous exposure; scaling will depend on whether exchanges can fit that demand into an already crowded equity-derivatives market.
#CFTCSingleStockPerps $WLD WLD is stuck tightly below the 0.59 resistance level, with no decent pullback drop at all, all swallowed up by the buying pressure underneath.
Bears are now all clustered above this position with stop losses.

👇ETH perpetual current price 2246.16, total smart money traders 2,639, total open interest 2.02B, nominal long-short ratio 24.05%.
There are 879 long traders holding 393.20M, average entry price 2824.27, unrealized loss about 101 million USD, profit ratio only 24.23%, deeply trapped at high levels, difficult to actively push upward in the short term.
There are 1,760 short traders holding 1.63B, average entry price 2236.75, current price slightly rising, shorts also experiencing unrealized loss, unrealized loss 6.84 million USD, profit ratio 67.67%.
Short positions are significantly larger than long positions, but with the current slight price increase, shorts are under considerable pressure; long costs are much higher than the current price, making it very difficult to break even. Both smart money longs and shorts are simultaneously in loss, with no side having a crushing advantage. Consistent with BTC market rhythm, short-term market fluctuates repeatedly, with spike washouts continuously consuming leveraged funds, and blind chasing orders are easily stopped out. It is necessary to wait for the price to effectively break through key liquidity zones before a clear trend can emerge. The most heartbreaking thing about Apple's earnings report isn't poor performance, but that it performed well and still got hammered.
Revenue was 114.5 billion, up 12% year-over-year, iPhone up 17%, all exceeding expectations. However, the next quarter's gross margin guidance is 45%–46%, down from the recently reported 47.9%. New CEO Ternus directly said that memory price increases are "unprecedented." After-hours, the stock dropped more than 4%, and on Tuesday, the main stock closed down 1.9%.
My view: demand is not the problem; the problem is cost, and no one can solve that in the short term. The perpetual is now around 331, with 322 below as yesterday's low, and 345 above as the pre-earnings report level. Until it returns to 345, I consider it still digesting.
Do you think "a good company being wrongly punished" is an opportunity, or is the memory price increase just beginning?

Personal observation, not investment adviceThis morning's drop and rebound have only one cause: oil prices.
BTC fell from 78,063 last night to 75,736 this morning, a 3.0% drop.
The lowest hour saw $135 million in trading volume, the largest in two days.
Then it pulled back to 77,420 within an hour.
It’s not just BTC that fell.
Nasdaq futures at 27,700, down 2.14%.
S&P futures −1.24%, Dow futures −0.81%.
(U.S. stock market spot hasn’t opened yet.)
Why the drop? Look at oil.
The U.S.-Iran conflict escalates, Brent at $102.97, WTI at $95.31.
Goldman Sachs raised its December Brent forecast from 90 to 105.
At this level, inflation won’t come down.
If inflation doesn’t come down, don’t expect rate cuts; hikes might even be necessary.
So what’s being hit isn’t the economy, but valuations.
Why the rebound? Still look at oil.
On November 3, Trump told the Financial Times there’s no plan for an immediate strike on Iran.
After this statement, oil prices reversed from rising to falling.
The source of panic was oil; once oil turned, the panic disappeared.
At first glance, I thought this was uncertainty about the election, but after reviewing the timeline, I realized the main cause was the war premium.
This rebound doesn’t look like "bottom-fishing capital entering," but more like "bad news disproved by a single statement."
There’s a big difference: the former requires new buying, the latter just needs no one selling anymore.
Do you think we should focus on oil prices next, or on the election vote count?
$BTC ETH plays a role in transaction fees, staking and network security.
But there's a catch here too. More activity on Ethereum doesn't necessarily translate into proportional value accruing to ETH, especially as Layer 2 networks make transactions cheaper.
For the next decade, I'm more interested in two questions:
$BTC: How much global wealth will eventually find its way into Bitcoin?
$ETH: How much economic value generated across the Ethereum ecosystem will actually accrue to ETH?Today's market, the most striking thing isn't the drop, but the two sides slapping each other.
The A-share Shanghai Composite Index only lost 0.82%, the STAR Market Composite Index plunged 4.78%, and the electronics sector saw a net outflow of over 8 billion yuan in one day. But the power equipment sector absorbed over 6 billion yuan, food and beverage took in over 4 billion yuan, Huangtai Liquor had a 4-day winning streak, Maotai rose against the market trend, with a net inflow of over 6 billion yuan in five days. AI animation companies Dasheng Culture and Zhejiang Film Industry had a 3-day winning streak, with the highest order book at over 2 million lots; short drama users grew from 10 million to 400 million in less than three years. Semiconductor equipment is rising, but computing hardware is falling; Zhongji Xuchuang and Tianfu Communications turned green, money moved from the most crowded end to places no one is fighting for.
The US stock market was also split last night: the Nasdaq rose 0.83%, the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index rebounded 2.64%, SanDisk rose over 4%, Broadcom and AMD rose over 3%. But Apple fell 1.97%, Tesla fell 1.32%, and the Dow Jones closed down. Those buying chips and those buying Apple did not have the same trading day.
$BTC touched 76,500 and was pulled back again; the fear index dropped eleven points in one day, directly down to 26. ETFs ran over 800 million USD in six days, with BlackRock alone redeeming 400 million, but on-chain whales reversed and increased holdings to 3.03 million coins, the strongest accumulation since February. On the $ETH side, an address also spent 37 million USD in five hours to buy, at an average price of 2,279, and hasn't stopped.
Those in suits are cutting, those with cold wallets are picking up; the money hasn't run away, it's just musical chairs.As analyzed earlier, after the rebound to 78830, it turned down to test 74909. This move has already played out, with 75690 completing the first test. What’s next? The second test at 74909! As for whether it will break through, it's a 50-50 chance. The midterm election outcome is settled, whether the US and Iran will still fight, the non-farm payroll data on the 6th, and whether there will be a rate hike in December are all variables. So, it’s not time to get overly bullish yet; contracts around BTC 76000 can be entered with a small position.The midterm elections are expected to cause another dip in the market, but it won't fall too much. After this event passes, the market will start to form a bottom.
In the past three Bitcoin cycles, the bottom appeared after the US midterm elections: 71 days after in 2014, 39 days after in 2018, and 13 days after in 2022.
If this pattern repeats, the time window for Bitcoin's next cycle bottom could be from the end of 2026 to early 2027.
#美国中期选举在即，哪些结果值得关注？ $BTC 🔥BTC has rebounded as expected, reaching around 78000 as I mentioned yesterday. What’s next, up or down?
Yesterday I posted a warning that there were too many short positions below 78000, which is the easiest situation for a rebound.
🔺 If the rebound is weak and ends around 78000, it’s because many short positions are there, forcing a short squeeze to stop losses, then it can’t go higher.
🔺 If the rebound is stronger, it will try to reach the liquidity above 79000, but the rebound was too weak and couldn’t go beyond 78000.
So what happens next?
First, the bulls are still relatively weak and haven’t reached the liquidity near 79000. It can’t go higher from the short positions at 78000. The current price is around 77000, where there are no trading conditions. The price is stuck in a no-man’s land, so I suggest staying flat and waiting.
🔺 For going long, I consider it only after breaking below the parallel bottom at 76000 or the bottom at 75000, then showing a strong recovery, bullish divergence, or a large number of short positions.
🔺 For going short, I consider shorting near 78800, the parallel top, because there is liquidity above 78800 and a gap above 79000, making it a good shorting condition.
So I will be watching when the price reaches 78800 to take out the parallel top liquidity and fill the gap around 79200-79600.$BTC has now moved below $75,819, hitting the yellow support level.
Meanwhile, the long liquidation cluster around $75,000 has been significantly reduced.
Liquidity is getting cleared. How many more downside targets will price hit before we see a reaction?$ZEC has gone completely crazy, blinking and already hitting 1232 again!
Brothers, good afternoon, I am Siqing
Did you see the breaking news above? The whale openly bought spot and contracts to go long. The market maker is riding this wave, plus someone is stubbornly holding the bottom at 77300 on BTC, forcing the shorts to get squeezed hard.
No more nonsense, here’s what to do next:
For those wanting to short:
Don’t try to top pick now. Wait for it to surge up to 1240 - 1245 (near previous highs). If it can’t break through and closes with a long upper shadow, and BTC at 77500 also weakens, then flip to short directly. Set stop loss above 1250, take a small pullback and exit.
For those wanting to go long:
Don’t chase at 1232 now, the deviation is too large, entering now means catching the falling knife. Wait patiently for a pullback. If it can hold steady around 1205 - 1210, showing a stabilization signal on the right side, then get on board to go long. If it breaks down below 1200 with heavy volume, don’t go long, follow the shorts.
This market is too wild, hold your USDT tight, don’t get greedy, don’t shoot the eagle without seeing the rabbit. Wait for it to reveal its flaws before acting!
⚠️ Personal operation, don’t blindly follow.

On-chain funds increase: how to distinguish between genuine adoption and short-term parking?
Cross-platform migration can change on-chain balances, but an increase in balance does not mean users are willing to use the application long-term. The key is whether the funds enter continuous settlement, lending, and consumption scenarios.
If the scale of funds increases but usage frequency does not improve, it should first be regarded as liquidity migration; if new address retention and application revenue both rise simultaneously, then the judgment of ecological expansion is strengthened. The usage situation after subsidy withdrawal is especially important.Something's wrong, this world is really crazy as hell. Someone borrowed $140 million just to squeeze out 110,000 from a small vault 😂
This morning, something exploded on-chain. On BNB Chain, there's a small project called CoreVault, with an InsurancePool next to it, originally meant as an insurance pool to cover depositors.
The attacker first used a flash loan to borrow about $143.6 million worth of WBNB, then used this money to make large swaps in the pool, forcibly crashing the price. The contract redemption was based on this spot price, so the amount that should have been compensated was amplified about 33 times. The insurance pool spat out 260.21 BNB at once, worth about $180,000 at the time.
Then he swapped those tokens back the same way, repaid the flash loan with interest, all done in one transaction. After costs, he netted about 160.26 BNB, roughly $110,000, gas fees not included.
The insurance pool lost even more, with a net outflow close to $180,000. It's called insurance, but in the end, it became someone else's ATM, quite ironic.
The $140 million principal was in his hands for only a few seconds: borrowed, crashed the price, withdrew money, repaid the loan, barely spending any of his own money. Using a price that can be easily manipulated as a quote—this kind of trap happens to projects every now and then. Watching this really makes you feel sorry for the people who deposited their money.
For beginners, it's recommended to watch more and trade less; when buying coins, only buy $BTC The rally looks strong, but the data tells a different story.
$BTC saw $33.74M in short liquidations vs just $6.7M in longs, suggesting a short squeeze rather than genuine buying pressure.
$ETH showed the same pattern, with $34.87M in shorts wiped out. Forced buying pushed prices higher, but fresh spot demand remains unproven.
$CORE also showed how quickly a squeeze can reverse, wiping out both shorts and longs.
#USMidtermsCongressWatch "Ranking Match in a Low-Volume Market" (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧
The midterm election vote counting is still ongoing, with data leaning towards the Democrats, but at this point in the market, direction is not the hardest part; the challenge is how to position your holdings. In a low-volume environment, strength and weakness matter more than price moves (￣▽￣)
$BTC has been grinding between 76387 and 78064 over 24 hours, with only 10,516 coins traded, a fear-greed index of 34, sentiment recovering, but funds reluctant to chase. It acts like a ballast stone—stable but temporarily lacking elasticity. Allocate 60% in the portfolio, keep the rest waiting for election-related negative news to unfold before moving (｡•́︿•̀｡)
$ETH ranks second. ETH/BTC has risen to 0.0294, outperforming by nearly half a percent in a day; staking queues are congested, exit queues bearish, chips are locked up, making it more suitable for an elastic position (๑•́ ₃ •̀๑)
$ZEC is the most independent. It bounced off around 1250 and still holds 1200; governance turmoil caused nearly 100,000 coins to exit free circulation, tightening supply. 1200 is the lifeline—no break, no move (ง •̀_•́)ง
The rule in a low-volume market is straightforward: the strong don’t necessarily rise immediately, the weak often fall behind first. Arrange your seating well, then leave the rest to patience～ (´▽｀)ノ♪
#美国中期选举进入计票阶段，国会控制权将如何变化？ Reviewing $ETH, I just got off yesterday
Today I bought back nearly $40 cheaper at a cost of 2257
The intraday low was 2225
Previous low was 2237
Once broken, it breaks
I thought breaking the level would take a long time before there was a chance to buy the dip
But the market returned the position in half a day
It’s really scary that it broke below the previous low, even lower than where I sold yesterday
A 15-minute candle released the largest volume of the session
Before the price even landed, I started buying
After buying, it kept dropping
Dropped to 2225 before stopping, now the 15-minute candle has already bounced back
The unrealized profit isn’t much but the direction is right
If the bulls don’t leave at this position, I won’t mess around
Hold when you should hold
Stop loss when you should stop loss
Set the stop loss just below the 2225 spike
Preserve the position first, then talk
The most satisfying moment in trading
Is not catching the absolute bottom
But when you personally sold yesterday’s position
And today the market gives it back to you at a discount Zcash ($ZEC)
🛡️ Privacy is becoming an important conversation in digital finance.
Zcash uses zero-knowledge cryptography to support privacy-preserving transactions. Its technology gives users the option to make transactions with enhanced privacy while maintaining the benefits of blockchain-based value transfer. As digital finance evolves, privacy and transparency will remain important topics for developers and communities.
Should financial privacy be a standard feature of cryptocurrency? 🔐To pour some cold water first, I don't take large long positions as a signal of an upcoming rise. Core Trader 19 (0x0c1f69…9672b) newly opened or added to a long position on SNDK, with 10x leverage, nominal value about $53,700, reference price $1061.5699. My judgment is: this order shows someone is willing to take risks, but it doesn't mean going long now is a bargain yet.
I'm stuck on two points. First, this is just a directional position without complete holdings and hedging information, so the nominal amount can't be directly translated into the trader's bullish confidence. Second, leverage makes timing entry more demanding: estimating from this position, if the price moves 1% against it, the paper loss is about $537, excluding fees. This is not a prediction of a drop, but a reminder that even if the direction is ultimately correct, volatility may force position adjustments first. When the market reverses, the hardest hit are leveraged longs who have no room and refuse to admit mistakes.
Of course, he might have bought correctly. I won't force bearish reasons just to be bearish. If the price can sustain above the reference price, recover after a pullback, and not just spike briefly, I will raise my evaluation of this long position. These are my observation conditions, not a market that has already happened. What I will watch next is whether the price can validate this entry, not how famous the wallet name is. The $SUI official buyback this time is honestly laughable.
After working hard all year, they only bought back 1 million tokens, but the monthly unlock volume suddenly surged to 22 million tokens.
This is not a buyback to support the price; it's clearly like scooping water out of a leaking boat with a small spoon.
Every day, new tokens that can't be sold keep flooding the market, and without any burn mechanism, how can the market hold up?
No matter how loudly they tell positive stories, it can't cover up this kind of imbalanced selling pressure. The rebound won't go far, and the market can only continue to look for a bottom.

👇The rally looks like conviction. The tape says it is plumbing. Over the past 24 hours, $BTC short liquidations reached $33.74 million against just $6.7 million in longs, a ratio that describes a squeeze far more than a bid. The cascade unfolded in layers: $25.99 million of shorts cleared within 12 hours, $17.3 million within four, and another $1.52 million in a single hour. Each forced buy triggered the next stop-loss, a chain reaction rather than fresh spot capital choosing higher prices. $ETH Today's market, the index is the face, the account is the inside, and the inside and outside are not the same.
The "sheep" stocks in the A-share market were still playing on homophones yesterday, but today they directly hit the daily limit down in batches, coming fast and going even faster. The chip concept absorbed 5.7 billion yuan in half a day, robots absorbed 4.4 billion yuan, but more than 3,700 stocks in the whole market are falling. No matter how fiercely semiconductors rise, they can't withstand the pull from consumption and real estate below. The broad-based ETFs bought nearly 80 billion yuan in one day to support the market, yet the STAR 50 still fell nearly 4 points. Money is stuck at the door, and people inside are still trying to get out.
The US Nasdaq rose 0.83%, the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index rebounded 2.64%, with SanDisk, Broadcom, and AMD all up over 3%, but the Dow was dragged down by Apple falling nearly 2 points and Tesla in the red. The seven giants have long gone their separate ways; those buying chips and those buying Apple are not having the same day today.
$BTC stabilized near 77,000, $ETH stood back at 2276, and the fear and greed index climbed from 26 back to 34, looking like a recovery. But ETF money is still flowing out; prices have returned, but funds have not. This divergence is more wearing than a one-way decline. The index is holding, sentiment is repairing, but the money hasn't truly turned around yet. I've always had something I couldn't figure out: ETFs keep reporting this outflow and that inflow every day, but what does it really have to do with me?
Yesterday, the US spot BTC ETF had a net outflow of $116 million. Sounds scary, but when you break it down, IBIT saw an outflow of $95 million, and the one with the code BTC had an outflow of $52.6 million. Together, these two exceed the total net outflow — which means other products were secretly buying.
So the so-called capital withdrawal is actually some people leaving and some people entering; subtract one from the other, and the remainder is $116 million. My current understanding: this number is not a prediction, it's bookkeeping.US spot BTC ETFs saw a net outflow of $116 million yesterday. The number isn't huge, but the structure is worth a look.
IBIT alone accounted for $95 million, making up 80%; the BTC ticker ETF saw another $52.6 million outflow. Together, these two total over $147 million, which already exceeds the total net outflow—indicating that other products had slight net inflows, partially offsetting the outflows.
This is interesting. Previously, ETF outflows tended to move in unison, but now it's different: some are selling while others are still buying, though the buyers are quieter. The $116 million is the net result of two opposing forces, not a one-sided panic.
Looking deeper: ETF subscriptions and redemptions correlate positively with $BTC price, but outflows transmit more slowly than inflows. Redemptions require settlement and market makers hedging, so price reactions often lag by a day or two.
Therefore, my judgment is that this looks more like position rebalancing rather than a systemic retreat. IBIT is large, and its absolute adjustment numbers always look ugly, so you can't take its outflows alone as the market's overall sentiment. The real signal lies in persistence: net outflows lasting more than three consecutive days and spreading from IBIT to other products—that's when capital is truly leaving this asset class.
$ETH and $SOL haven't followed the decline these past two days, which also indirectly shows that selling pressure remains locked within the $BTC ETF channel.Triple-line hedging, Big Bro Maji's "hard-holding ledger"
Monitoring shows that Big Bro Maji is hard-holding the market with a massive long-short combination: $BTC short, $ETH long, $HYPE short advancing on three fronts, with a total margin of about 5,698,000 U and a total position value of about 62,980,000 U, maximizing the intensity of the game.
BTC short: 40X full position, holding -249.9 BTC, average opening price 78,104.1 U, unrealized profit +325,700 U, funding fee +166,300 U, liquidation price 103,059.49 U, temporarily the "profit cushion" in the portfolio.
ETH long: 25X full position, holding 9,823.81 ETH, average opening price 2,427.28 U, unrealized loss -1,722,900 U, funding fee -82,200 U, liquidation price 1,561.77 U, the long side is clearly under pressure.
HYPE short: 5X full position, holding -259,600 HYPE, average opening price 72.8005 U, unrealized loss -2,765,900 U, funding fee +1,203,000 U, liquidation price 106.72 U, becoming the main source of loss.
Roughly summed up, unrealized P&L is about -4,163,100 U, funding fee about +1,287,100 U, still in an unrealized loss state after hedging. The money earned from the BTC short is being eaten up by the ETH long and HYPE short. The triple-line liquidation prices still have some distance, but under a high-leverage full-position combination, any sharp unilateral surge or drop may trigger chain pressure. Hard-holding does not mean risk-free.There are obvious differences in the liquidation structures of BTC, ETH, and CORE: BTC and ETH mainly experience short liquidations within the 1-hour timeframe, but when extended to 4 hours and 24 hours, the scale of long liquidations is actually higher; CORE's 1-hour liquidations are entirely from longs. For BTC, the 1-hour liquidation volume is 35.0894 million U, with longs at 200,000 U and shorts at 34.8894 million U. The 4-hour liquidation expands to 110 million U, with longs at 70.661 million U and shorts at 37.7314 million U; the 24-hour liquidation reaches 160 million U, with longs at 97.6173 million U and shorts at 58.4455 million U. ETH follows a similar pattern. The 1-hour liquidation is 6.5824 million U, with longs at 591,800 U and shorts at 5.9907 million U; the 4-hour liquidation is 31.1973 million U, with longs at 24.0625 million U and shorts at 7.1348 million U; the 24-hour liquidation reaches 64.6826 million U, with longs at 37.1472 million U and shorts at 27.5354 million U. CORE's 1-hour liquidation is 4.8375 million U, all from longs, with no short liquidations. 💡 My view. The most notable aspect of this data set is the switch in liquidation direction between short and longer timeframes. The 1-hour data for BTC and ETH indicates that short-term fluctuations first force a large number of shorts to exit, but the larger long liquidations at 4-hour and 24-hour intervals suggest that long leverage pressure becomes more apparent in the subsequent market trend. The liquidation amounts only describe the forced liquidation structure that has occurred and cannot alone be used to infer the direction of the next market phase Strategy delivered a somewhat conflicted financial report last week
From October 26 to November 1, the company used proceeds from common stock financing to buy 811 $BTC, about $65.5 million, at an average price of around 80,846, bringing total holdings up to 849,327 coins
However, in the same week, it spent about $208.2 million in cash to repurchase STRC preferred shares, more than three times the amount spent on buying coins, with cash reserves dropping from about $242.4 million to about $132.7 million
Institutions haven't been supportive either
The US spot BTC ETF saw a net outflow of about $27.4 million on November 3, marking three consecutive days of withdrawals, though this outflow is much smaller than the roughly $398.6 million on November 2, indicating a slowing outflow pace
My view is that Strategy seems more focused on restructuring preferred stock liabilities this week rather than aggressively increasing positions
In the short term, don't interpret this as a bullish trend signal
On the market, $BTC in the Asian morning session fell from around 78,000 to about 77,000, with a 24-hour high/low of approximately 78,049/76,360, and a funding rate of about 0.01%
Short term support is first seen at 76,800, which was tested several times this morning; breaking below this level suggests reducing positions
Resistance above is at 77,500; holding above this level could target 78,000 next 最脆弱的一环从来不是选举结果，而是我们提前把"利好"全押进去的那部分仓位。 中期选举临近，你的仓位真的准备好面对"结果落地即波动"了吗？ 这几天翻自己的观察清单，越看越觉得有意思。众议院435席全部重选，参议院100席里约三分之一轮换，立法要两院同时点头才算数。换句话说，真正决定加密监管语境的不是谁赢，而是两院多数会不会形成互相牵制的格局。行业这边也没闲着，三家超级PAC砸了约1.7亿美元进场，这笔钱买的不是某个候选人，是未来数字资产立法环境的入场券。 市场在交易什么？我认为不是"谁赢BTC涨还是跌"这种粗糙叙事，而是政策预期被重新定价的那个瞬间。偏多的路径很清晰：如果两院格局让财政、税收、数字资产立法更顺畅，风险偏好会先在山寨和ETH上冒头，BTC反而更像压舱石。但风险信号也在闪：这1.7亿的行业押注本身就是被提前计价的预期，结果一旦模糊或陷入拉锯，最先松动的往往是杠杆最重的那批仓位，而不是价格本身。 我的风险日记里记了三条。 - 选举前情绪容易先冲高，别把冲高当确认。 - 结果拖延或"分治"格局出现时，山寨的回撤会快过BTC，节奏上要留缓冲。 - 真正值得盯的是立法推进的措辞变化，Today, the A-shares market closed with the Shanghai Composite Index dropping only 0.82%, the ChiNext Index plunging 2.73%, and the STAR 50 Index sharply falling 3.81%. Trading volume shrank to 1.7 trillion yuan, with over 3,300 stocks closing in the red. The chip industry chain saw a net outflow of 24.2 billion yuan in one day, with optical communication and computing hardware collectively drained; however, batteries and new energy sectors bucked the trend by attracting funds, and defensive sectors like insurance and rare earths also pushed upward. Huangtai Liquor hit a 4-day limit up, Gaozheng Civil Explosion and Dasheng Culture both hit 3-day limit ups. Low-level consumer and thematic stocks are still emerging, but the money flow path from high-level tech to low-level defensive stocks is very clear, so those who chased the morning rally likely ended up holding positions at the close.
US chip stocks retraced some losses, with the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index up 2.64%, SanDisk rising over 4%, Broadcom and AMD up more than 3%, and the Nasdaq closing up 0.83%. However, Apple dropped nearly 2 points, warning that memory costs will continue to squeeze margins, causing the Dow to close in the red and Tesla to also end lower. Buyers of chips and buyers of Apple had very different trading days today.
$BTC touched a new low again this afternoon, with Binance spot hitting around 76,388. The 24-hour total liquidation across the network was 338 million, with long positions accounting for 265 million. $ETH saw liquidations of 48 million. But looking closely at the liquidation structure, short positions on ETH already account for 70%, and those chasing shorts are starting to get bitten back. ETFs have lost over 800 million USD in six days, the fear and greed index is stuck at 26, and the money hasn't gone far—it's just switching sides. When switching sides, it's easiest for both sides to get hit.The "uncertainty" of the midterm elections is more costly than any negative factor
On November 4th, the U.S. midterm election vote count was tight, and the control of Congress remained unclear.
Do you understand the weight of this signal?
The market is not afraid of "which party wins." The market fears "not knowing who wins." Political uncertainty leads to a global contraction of risk assets overall, with short-term funds tending to lock in profits or stay on the sidelines, causing the market to exhibit "low volume oscillations and high-frequency shakeouts" as a risk-averse characteristic.
The deeper issue is hidden in the CLARITY Act. This bill, which determines the long-term regulatory framework for U.S. digital assets, failed to reach the 60-vote threshold in a procedural Senate vote in September and has yet to break through. The midterm elections change the composition of the next Congress, thereby altering the political calculations for this bill when it restarts in 2027.
Bitcoin was not brought down by "a certain candidate." It was indirectly pushed down by the fact of "not knowing who is in charge." $BTC $ETH $SOL #美国中期选举进入计票阶段，国会控制权将如何变化？ #Circle财报在即，稳定币增长能否兑现收益？ #AMD数据中心收入近翻倍，营收及指引均超预期
