Thanks to myself for not closing yesterday $ZEC
The major downtrend pattern remains unchanged; we are currently in a low-level consolidation after a big drop.
Two possibilities:
① Weak continuation: if it can't hold 1120.51, it will continue downward;
② Oversold rebound: stabilizing at a low level, testing the moving average resistance around 1133~1138, but the rebound is most likely a second chance for the bears unless it firmly breaks above MA20 at 1172, which would change the bearish structure.
ZEC is down nearly 10% intraday, with moving averages in a bearish alignment, volume dropped sharply then low volume grinding at the bottom.
Don't rush to catch the falling knife; this is just a temporary pause after exhaustion from the drop. Focus on resistance levels for the rebound first. 覆盖范围：黄金、原油、存储芯片与人工智能存储、人工智能产业、加密市场，以及影响定价的美国国债收益率、美元指数、美联储加息或者降息概率。 一、核心观点 · 1、油价暴跌没有救起科技股。美国轻质原油12月合约收于每桶96.46美元，跌7.36%，布伦特原油1月合约收于每桶104.77美元，跌7.63%，意思是通胀压力最大的那块石头被搬开了一点，但市场真正怕的不是油价，是人工智能花大钱能不能赚回来。 · 2、黄金是当天的避险赢家。现货黄金收于每盎司3954美元附近，涨约2.1%，美国黄金期货12月合约收于每盎司3969.60美元，涨约1.8%，意思是上周五暴跌后被打到一年低点，市场先买回来一点，但4000美元大关还没有收复，算不上趋势反转。 · 3、存储芯片上演了盘前大涨、收盘翻绿。盘前海力士涨约4.83%，美光涨约2.80%，闪迪涨约2.82%，收盘却变成海力士跌1.01%，美光跌5.78%，闪迪跌6.59%，意思是盘前那波反弹是超跌后的喘气，收盘时资金还是选择先卖。 · 4、人工智能的账本被摆到台前。苹果第四财季营收1144.77亿美元，同比增长11.72%，净利润307.11亿美元，同General Kim refuses to take responsibility. 🤣
Kim Yo-jong, Minister of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, stated: The US blaming North Korea for the $6.3 billion stolen from Binance @binance is "absurd rhetoric," just like last year when they said North Korea stole from Bybit, it's political provocation.
The most outrageous part is the final counterattack,
claiming that the US said last year they would put the recovered stolen coins into the national strategic reserve. Seeing who ends up with the money reveals who is really behind it.
The King of Understanding: You want me to take the blame for you? 🤣$BTC hit a new low again at 2:13 PM Beijing time, Binance spot dropped to 76,388, even lower than the 76,542 at 11 AM, now around 76,580, down 2% in 24h.
Coinglass data shows $298 million liquidated across the network in the past 12 hours, with $271 million long positions liquidated; BTC liquidations were $67.8 million, $ETH liquidations were $40.35 million.
ETH is now at 2,247, down 1.6% in 24h; Binance BTC long-short ratio rose to 2.73, ETH to 2.67, with both coins' funding rates still at +0.01%.
BTC contract open interest increased from $7.46 billion to $7.65 billion in 24 hours, with longs increasing despite the price drop.
My view is that this structure of falling prices with increasing longs makes it difficult to see a decent rebound. MMTC estimates about $30 million long liquidations near 75,900 and 75,100, which will likely be tested first. This world is really strange; sometimes you just have to think more.
Are these national leaders negotiating so hard just to manipulate oil prices and harvest global wealth?
In the early morning, Trump's reply was that there would be no strike on Iran after the midterm elections.
Oil prices then naturally fell to 95.2.
I think a regular rebound to 98 can be used to short CL WTI crude oil.
Who knows if the rise to 98 in WTI crude oil is because Iran said: The US-Iran agreement is still far away, and Iran is ready to respond to US strikes.
The US says Iran is willing to give up nuclear weapons and willing to negotiate peace.
Iran says the US must agree to their demands.
Are they kidding us?
Has anyone noticed that those major oil-exporting countries' profits have already increased by 10%, there is a severe oil shortage outside, they are all making a killing, and here we have started using ethanol to fuel cars through person-to-person transmission, really heartless.
Now short crude oil at 98, it will soon rise to 99, I firmly plan to cut at 101, not holding for one more point In this world, no one is a god, and no one knows for sure whether it will rise or fall, by how much it will rise, or by how much it will fall. At best, one can only judge whether it is more likely to rise or more likely to fall. Therefore, referring to the past historical performance of this asset is crucial.
I remember before October 11 last year, when Bitcoin surged to 126,000, many families were talking about an eternal bull market, institutions entering the market, no more bear markets, and no more four-year cycles. But what happened? The 126,000 dropped to 57,800 in 2026. Isn't this still within the four-year cycle? I can only say this drop was a bit small, which left me somewhat at a loss.
The essence of "carving a mark on a boat to seek a sword" is to improve the probability of judgment, and it is useful. I have benefited a bit from this method, and I will continue to use it until it fails.
⚠️ Market review is only a sharing of ideas and does not constitute investment advice. The crypto market is highly volatile; please strictly control your risks! CORE's "Death Spiral": Narrative Collapse, Zero Revenue, Phantom Tokens Hanging Overhead, Fivefold Pressure Crushing the Coin Price
As of November 3, 2026, CORE is priced at about $0.012, down approximately 11.5% in 24 hours, nearly 30% over 7 days, with a circulating market cap of about $12.48 million, and a 24-hour trading volume of about $3.09 million, down over 99% from its all-time high.
Fivefold pressure is tightening simultaneously:
- Narrative failure. BTCFi, Satoshi Plus, and non-custodial staking were highlights, but the ecosystem's revenue has not yet formed sufficient buyback and burn capacity to hedge against long-term unlocking sell pressure.
- Prolonged inflation. Total supply is 2.1 billion tokens, with a circulation rate of about 48%. Mining rewards decay at 3.61% annually and will be released over 81 years, so supply-side pressure is far from over.
- Liquidity exhaustion. The 24-hour trading volume is only about $3.09 million; large sell orders can trigger liquidation cascades.
- Repeated security incidents. After the reward vulnerability hard fork in September, the b14g protocol was attacked again at the end of October, affecting 97 million CORE tokens. Although about 68.15 million tokens were recovered via hard fork, they have not yet been distributed to affected users.
- Continuous trust erosion. Exchange deposit and withdrawal suspensions, unclear handling of abnormal tokens, and unclear community governance direction all drive capital to exit.
The chain is still running, but the price has lost its self-healing ability. If buyback and burn cannot outpace unlocking, TVL cannot rebound, and the $0.01 threshold is breached, the downward trend may continue. $ZEC gold rose 1.95%, crypto market stayed flat
$XAUT today 3,950.5, up 1.95%, opened at 3,875.1, lowest 3,872.4, highest 3,956.0. Real body accounts for 90.2%, almost no upper shadow.
At the same time, BTC 77,935 fell 0.06%, ETH 2,291.6 rose 1.09%. One sideways, one slight rebound.
This is quite interesting. Gold and crypto have often moved in the same direction over the past two years because both feed on liquidity. Today it's reversed: safe haven is rising, risk assets are flat.
There is also a contradiction on the gold side: daily RSI 14 period is only 30.9, still in the weak zone, but 4-hour RSI is already 90.2, 6 period 93.5. The long-term cycle says it's cheap, the short-term cycle says it's expensive. This indicates the rise is too rapid, a sudden buying surge.
Above 4,216.15 is resistance tested twice, with 6.7% room.
Just made a small profit on xp gold today.
$XAUT $BTC 🔥 Interesting historical pattern, let's analyze the past midterm elections and BTC
Looking back at the market after the previous three midterm elections:
In 2014, it took 71 days after the election to hit the bottom, with a low of $170
In 2018, the bottom was reached in 39 days, at $3200
In 2022, it only took 13 days to crash to the bottom, at $15500
Looking at the subsequent gains, it's even more astonishing
170 → 20000, a 100x rally
3200 → 64000, 20x
15500 → 126000, 8x
Another very obvious point: the speed to bottom is getting faster each term, 71 days → 39 days → 13 days.
In short, the moments of extreme market panic often hide the best opportunities. 63 billion stolen, Bitcoin only dropped 5%: BTC is now as steady as a seasoned veteran!
Remember the FTX crash in 2022? Bitcoin fell 19% in three days, and it took just over a week from liquidity crisis to bankruptcy filing, wiping out all market trust.
This time, a top exchange was hacked for about 6.3 billion USD, the largest single hacker incident in crypto history. Yet Bitcoin only dropped 4% to 5% from last Thursday's high, bottoming at 76,300 and rebounding to 78,300 on Monday.
What's the difference? FTX was embezzlement plus bankruptcy, credit collapsed; this time it was a hacker attack, the exchange immediately promised full compensation, and the market treated it as an operational accident, not a systemic crash.
But the stability is only in spot trading. Within 24 hours of the incident, the whole network liquidated 1.11 billion USD, with longs accounting for 84.3%. Spot market veterans calmly watched, while leveraged gamblers turned off the lights and ate noodles—one market, two worlds.
Today BTC fell back near 77,000, dragged down by US stocks and election sentiment, unrelated to the hack. Seasoned veteran or not, always keep your seatbelt fastened.
Just venting, not financial advice, DYOR. Which one are you?🍜
$BTC $ETH$ZEC $ZEC Why has ZEC dropped so sharply? Is it just because of the hacker incident? It's really like getting shot while lying down!
ZEC and XMR both belong to privacy coins. When news broke that hackers chose privacy coins to launder money, it directly caused concern for the entire privacy sector.
There are worries about a new round of delisting and trading restrictions by exchanges, leading traders to flee early to avoid regulatory risks, resulting in collective sell-offs.
ZEC itself has a history of trust issues.
Previously, the Orchard privacy pool vulnerability incident left a deep psychological shadow on ZEC: the market has always worried about the existence of unverifiable counterfeit tokens. Many large holders and well-known traders have already chosen to reduce their positions and exit. The foundation is relatively fragile, so any disturbance is more likely to trigger a sell-off.
Internal governance uncertainty.
Changes in the project development team and governance continuously make the market doubt its long-term development and maintenance capabilities. Compared to XMR, many funds feel that ZEC carries higher risk and will prioritize abandoning ZEC when negative news arises. #With the US midterm elections approaching, which outcomes are worth watching?

Asian funds stepped in to support the market, rebounding from 76300, with futures rising 1.5%. Even though Binance had a net withdrawal of 3.64 billion, the market did not crash. The key focus for the next half day is whether Asian funds can hold the 78000 level.
$OKB 111
Positive news is directly invalid in a bearish environment. OKX, together with ICE and Trade.xyz, pushed perpetual contracts into the US compliant market, but the news led to three consecutive declines. The exchange sector as a whole is dragged down by the sentiment from the Binance hack, showing an independently weak trend.

This should have been the biggest beneficiary, but it completely stayed flat. As an on-chain insurance protocol, the Binance hack, a black swan event, should have easily triggered insurance narratives, but the trading volume was only 530,000, the market is too thin, and funds are simply unwilling to enter for speculation.

#OKX、ICE与Trade.xyz联手，推动永续合约进入美国合规市场 A friend told me that historically, after the midterm elections, $BTC always declines.
This period is not suitable for leveraging or trading contracts.
Well, let's look at the price performance of $BTC in November of 2014, 2018, and 2022.
2014:
First, looking at 2014, in Figure 1, you can see that the 200-day moving average on the daily chart is still downward, and the price is completely suppressed by the 200-day moving average.
Moreover, the price hasn't even broken through the downtrend line.
What does this have to do with the midterm elections? Isn't this still during a bear market?
2018:
In Figure 2, 2018 saw the sharpest decline, but the market performance was exactly the same as in 2014, with no signs of a bull market, it was all bear market.
How could it rise?
2022:
How is this different from the previous two?
Where is the price? Where is the yearly moving average? Where is the downtrend line?
2026:
Do you see what's different?
Where is the price? Where is the yearly moving average? Where is the downtrend line?
The price has broken through the trend line and quickly stood above the yearly moving average.
A completely different trend. It's like carving a mark on a boat to find a sword; the boat is no longer the same, so what's the use of carving?
So you tell me, now that $BTC price has returned to the yearly moving average, will you act???Gold rose 1.95%, crypto market stayed flat

$XAUT $BTC It's not a crash, but a "slow zeroing out": dissecting the truth behind CORE's continuous decline, each layer more despairing than the last
As of November 3, 2026, CORE is priced at about $0.012, with a 7-day drop of approximately 27%–30%, a 30-day drop of about 40%–44%, and a retracement of over 99% from its all-time high.
It’s not a sudden crash, but a slow tightening by five layers of pressure.
First layer: narrative failure. BTCFi, Satoshi Plus, and non-custodial staking were once highlights, but the ecosystem’s revenue has not yet formed enough buyback and burn capacity to offset the long-term unlocking selling pressure.
Second layer: prolonged inflation. Total supply is 2.1 billion tokens, circulating rate about 48%–59%, mining rewards released with annual decay, supply pressure far from over.
Third layer: liquidity exhaustion. 24-hour trading volume is only a few million dollars; large sell orders can trigger waterfall declines, and rebounds lack support.
Fourth layer: repeated security incidents. After the reward vulnerability hard fork in September, the b14g protocol was attacked again at the end of October, affecting 97 million CORE tokens. About 68.15 million were recovered on-chain but have not yet been distributed to affected users.
Fifth layer: continuous erosion of trust. Exchange deposit and withdrawal suspensions, unclear handling of abnormal tokens, and unclear community governance direction all drive capital to exit.
The chain is still running, but the price has lost its self-healing ability. If buybacks and burns cannot outpace unlocking, TVL cannot rebound, and the $0.01 threshold is breached, the downward trend may continue.Calculate it: a nominal position of $765,400 with 40x leverage corresponds to an initial margin of about $19,100. The notional size cannot be treated as principal. Core Trader 05 opened a long position of 10.00488 BTC this time. I'm more concerned about how much tolerance it has left rather than how strong the long momentum is.
① Roughly calculating the inverse of 40x leverage, about a 2.5% adverse price movement approaches the theoretical risk boundary. This is not the exact liquidation distance; maintenance margin, additional margin, and other factors will affect the result, but it’s enough to remind me: even if the directional judgment is correct, it might not withstand intermediate volatility.
② The nominal value is $765,382.48. If the price moves 1% against the position, the corresponding unrealized loss is about $7,654. This is roughly 40% of the estimated margin above, so when I look at such positions, I first calculate loss elasticity, then consider the amount.
③ The reference price given in the material is $76,500.916, but there is no complete average fill price or margin information. I won’t use the reference price directly to infer an exact liquidation price; missing parameters cannot be filled in by imagination.
My judgment is that this long position expresses a directional view but does not yet prove whether the risk arrangement is reasonable. Next, I want to observe whether it adjusts the position; for myself, I first separate nominal value, leverage, and real cost before deciding how much weight a monitoring message should carry.Lighter stated that recently 12 new stock tokens have been enabled as collateral on Robinhood Chain, bringing the total number of stock tokens available to 23, including Apple, AMD, and others. The common reaction to such expansion news is: stock tokens have more uses now, which is positive.
On the other hand, I am more concerned about risk control after the collateral expansion rather than the number of varieties. One reason is that being eligible as collateral does not mean high collateral efficiency; if the collateral rate and quota limits are strict, the improvement in users' capital utilization from adding new varieties may be limited. This is my speculation, and one should not judge solely by quantity.
Another reason is that if the related stock tokens lack liquidity, then during price fluctuations, disposing of collateral might be more difficult, and having more options could increase management complexity. I am not excited about the number 23 yet; what I want to see next are the collateral rules and actual liquidity.The $72.8K zone makes sense from a risk-reward perspective, especially after BTC's sustained sell-off.
One detail worth adding: Strategy's average BTC acquisition cost is currently around $75,451, with 849,327 BTC in its treasury. A move towards $72.8K would put price meaningfully below that cost basis, making the zone an important psychological level for the market.
That doesn't guarantee a bounce, but combined with an oversold market and potential short-coveringWhy does it keep falling? CORE's five nooses: from 6.47 to 0.013, an endless plunge
As of November 3, 2026, CORE is priced at about $0.012, down approximately 11.5% in 24 hours, nearly 30% over 7 days, having retraced over 99% from its all-time high. Noose 1: Ecosystem revenue far below expectations. Modules like SatPay, AMP, LST have launched, but actual TVL is only in the tens of millions of dollars range, protocol revenue is too small, and buyback strength cannot offset unlocked selling pressure. Noose 2: Long inflation cycle. Total supply is 2.1 billion tokens, with about 48% circulating. Mining rewards continue to release with a 3.61% annual decay for 81 years, causing long-term supply-side pressure. Noose 3: Extremely fragile liquidity. 24-hour trading volume is only about $3.09 million; large sell orders can trigger liquidation cascades. In March this year, the Colend protocol liquidation caused a single-day drop of 50%. Noose 4: Repeated security incidents. At the end of October, the b14g protocol was attacked, with 97 million CORE stolen. Although a hard fork recovered about 68.15 million tokens, the distribution plan has not been implemented, damaging trust again. Noose 5: Governance handover causes uncertainty. Core DAO is transferring control from the core team to the community, with unclear decision directions, and the market is voting with its feet. The chain is alive, but the coin is "effectively dead." The team is still developing, institutional cooperation is ongoing, and there is no trigger condition for a total wipeout. However, if buybacks and burns cannot outpace inflation and TVL cannot return to growth... Monday Market Observation｜Four assets each with their own storyline👀
$BTC｜78145
Asian funds entered, rebounding from 76300 to 78145, futures up 1.5%. Binance resumed withdrawals with outflows of 3.64 billion, yet the market did not crash. Next, the key focus is whether Asian funds can hold the 78000 level.

#OKX、ICE与Trade.xyz联手，推动永续合约进入美国合规市场 Title: 71 days, 39 days, 13 days! BTC Midterm Election Bottom Pattern, Will It Still Hold This Time?
After the past three U.S. midterm elections, BTC exhibited an interesting phenomenon: the market did not bottom immediately after the election ended.
About 71 days after the November 2014 election, BTC bottomed in January 2015 at around $170; about 39 days after the 2018 election, BTC dropped to about $3,200 in December; about 13 days after the 2022 election, BTC dipped to around $15,500 in November.
Even more coincidentally, the intervals between bottoms showed a gradual shortening pattern of 71, 39, and 13 days. In the subsequent three cycles, BTC rose to approximately $20,000, $64,000, and above $126,000 respectively.
But is this really a pattern brought by the midterm elections? Not necessarily. The 2018 period coincided with a crypto bear market, and 2022 was further impacted by the FTX collapse. Macro environment and industry cycles are the key variables.
What’s more noteworthy is that in 2026, BTC’s annual low so far appeared on July 1 at about $57,850, 125 days before the November 3 election. The historical rhythm has clearly shifted.
My view: History can provide an observational framework but cannot offer precise bottom-timing dates. Rather than waiting for the 13th or 39th day after the election, it’s better to focus on ETF capital flows, macro liquidity, and whether the market structure truly reverses. $BTC #美国中期选举在即，哪些结果值得关注？ What’s next for BTC? Will it continue to fall or start to rise?
Rumors about a $6.3 billion hack at an exchange have been circulating wildly recently. If we were still in a bear market, the price would have already dropped below 70,000 or even 60,000 last week. But the fact is, the decline that started from 87,395 has lasted 39 days with an overall drop of only 12.88%.
This confirms my judgment: the drop from 87,395 is a weekly-level correction against the weekly rise from 57,800 to 87,395, To pour some cold water first, what I see is not "institutions finally squeezing into the same market," but rather that they can continue to maintain their own ledgers separately. Just because technology connects the doors doesn't mean the people inside are willing to do business with each other; I don't want to skip over this distinction.
Consensys's sovereign network interoperability solution is based on Ethereum, allowing institutions to settle securities, exchange currencies, and issue collateral across ledgers without cross-chain operations or moving assets to a shared ledger; assets remain on their native ledgers, execution is verified by zero-knowledge proofs, no additional trusted intermediaries are needed, and transactions are visible only to relevant parties. I tend to see this as a tool for institutional collaboration rather than a liquidity boost for the entire market. There are two reasons: the ability to execute between ledgers does not mean participants are willing to provide quotes and collateral; there is still a business willingness gap between technical connectivity and transaction depth; privacy can reduce information exposure but cannot alone imply an expanded participation scope, and it remains unanswered how much convenience ordinary users can share.
Of course, optimists might be right. If we later see different institutions continuously conducting real settlements rather than just proving the system can run, I will raise my evaluation of it; if it can also show how these businesses improve market depth, I would be willing to take back this cold water. What I will focus on next is whether there is business after the connection, not how smooth the interface sounds.① $BTC
Contract net outflow of 194 million USD, spot market simultaneously outflowing 76.36 million USD. Both contract and spot markets are fleeing; it's not just leverage withdrawing, long-term spot holdings are also exiting.
② $ETH
The weakest market structure. Contract outflow of 95.69 million, spot outflow of 114 million, spot outflow exceeds contract. Real money is continuously fleeing, the foundation visibly weakening.
③ $SOL
The only slight glimmer: contract outflow of 79.49 million, but spot market slightly net inflow of 8.84 million, showing some support at low levels. However, this amount is negligible compared to the massive contract outflow, merely partial absorption, far from a sign of strengthening.
Afternoon market confirms: in the one-hour cycle, all four coins' positions collectively retreat, volume expands, positions can't keep up. Even ZEC turnover is hot, but positions continue to withdraw; the entire market is pulling back to observe.
Multiple variables pressuring the market tonight: 23:00 JOLTS job openings data; US midterm election voting begins, results expected Wednesday morning; second phase of withdrawals advancing simultaneously, liquidity disturbances ongoing.
My bottom line is clear: to rebound and stabilize, two signals must appear—spot outflow rate narrows first, followed by contract funds returning. Before these two signals materialize, firmly no chasing the rally.
What do you think, which will return first—the spot funds or the contract funds?

Not only are they paying interest to the longs every day, but the spikes at the 289 level have all been instantly pulled back, clearly the market is a bit hard to push down.

👇$SUI scares people every day with large unlocks, but when checking the on-chain data, 70% of the unlocked tokens are immediately put back into the staking pool.
There really isn't much increase in circulating supply in the market.
Those who hastily shorted trying to ride the wind must have miscalculated this time; do they really think tokens are free?
#SUI

👇If I were to write a strategy, I would set one rule: if the stock token collateral expands, record it as an "increase in capital usage scenarios," not directly as a positive signal. Lighter recently added 12 new stock tokens as collateral on Robinhood Chain, bringing the total number of listed stock tokens to 23.🤖
As a quantitative newbie, what I care more about is: with more varieties, will the risk become harder to calculate? The benefit is that users holding the new collateral have more usage channels; the downside is that multiple stocks do not equal multiple independent risks. If they move in the same direction, the seemingly diversified collateral basket may still face pressure together. This is my speculation and does not represent something that has already happened.
So I would add one observation condition: after expansion, whether the collateral assets are concentrated in a few stocks, rather than just the number of new additions. If you were to write this condition, would you look at the proportion of a single stock or the correlation between stocks?$ETH just after 2 PM, exactly the time when your eyelids are drooping and you want to grab some afternoon tea to recharge. I casually checked the contract data of these popular altcoins, and wow, it almost shocked me awake! These coins are plunging like a waterfall below, and the most ridiculous thing is that retail bulls are still frantically bottom-fishing!
First, look at $ZEC, current price 1132, which has plummeted 11% today. But if you look closely at the 4-hour long-short ratio, it’s still 1.91. Despite falling to this terrible state, retail investors are still buying, and all the chips are in the bulls’ hands. The big players’ scythe is specially designed to cut down all dissenters. Don’t think you can buy just because it’s dropped a lot.
Next, $HYPE, current price 83.5, the previous hype has completely dissipated. Now it’s a slow decline at a high level, with a long-short ratio of 1.94. The open interest keeps refusing to drop, bulls are holding positions stubbornly below. The big players have finished distributing chips at the high level, now it’s a dull knife cutting flesh—whoever goes in gets trapped.
The most outrageous is $UNI, current price 6.97, the most crowded leverage in the market, with a 4-hour long-short ratio as high as 2.04. The daily chart keeps falling without stopping, retail investors buy more as it falls, and all the leverage is crowded on the bullish side. As soon as the market trembles even a little, this coin will definitely be the first to be pulled out as a sacrifice, with a downward spike ready to trigger.
To sum up, the current market is a panic sell-off that hasn’t fully played out, leverage hasn’t been cleaned out, and catching the fall is purely stubborn. Watch more, act less.
Which of these three struggling brothers do you hold? Are you prepared to hold on to the end, or are you rushing to cut losses and run?

ETF funds continue to outflow: In October, spot ETH ETF net outflow was about $1.61 billion, the worst single-month performance since launch; as of October 30, ETH ETF single-day net outflow was about $156 million, and the capital flow has not stabilized.
Aftermath of Binance hack: Since Binance resumed withdrawals, cumulative net outflow reached $4.72 billion, about 3% of platform assets; the platform has replenished about 95% of affected assets with its own funds, but customer funds are still withdrawing.
Macro environment pressure: US tech stocks turned down in the afternoon, the market is re-evaluating AI capital expenditure and returns; the upcoming US midterm elections also bring new policy expectation changes for risk assets.
Strong on-chain fundamentals: Ethereum ecosystem active addresses hit a record high (15.4M), Gas fees are at historic lows (about 10.4 Gwei), RWA market exceeds $38 billion, JPMorgan has expanded JPM Coin to Ethereum.
Resistance above: $2,370–$2,390; if volume increases and price stands back above, the rebound will be more convincing.
Support below: $2,160–$2,200 (200-day moving average about $2,158); if broken, $1,950 may be tested
#美国中期选举在即，哪些结果值得关注？ Funding rate turns negative, ETH hides a bearish trap 📉
$ETH funding rate hits -0.0000299 /8h, shorts are crowded, the apparent selling pressure seems to have been digested, and the price has a slight rebound.
But here is a core point easily overlooked: Ethereum spot ETF hit a record in October, with about $1.6 billion outflow in a single month, and the outflow trend is forming.
Compared to a short squeeze driven by crowded shorts, the probability of spot buying power fading is higher, making the likelihood of ETH continuing a slow bearish decline greater.Scared because I shorted at 87000, 84000, 80000, and 78500?
Don't worry! I'm going long now! Publicly setting up BTC long positions!
Why enter long at 72888? Technically, 72888 is a strong chip concentration zone after an extremely deep drop. BTC has been hammered down from the 80,000 level; if it really reaches around 72,000, it means panic sellers have been completely wiped out, and leveraged longs are basically annihilated. Buying chips with losses at this position has minimal defense space, maximizing the risk-reward ratio.
Looking at the capital and bottom cards: Strategy's overall position cost is about $75,446. If the price drops to 72,888, it means breaking through the world's largest long position defense line. Big funds will definitely use spot holdings to defend in this deep water zone to protect the market, and will never allow the price to collapse easily. Plus, after continuous sharp drops, short-term technical indicators are severely oversold, and a retaliatory rebound repair could come at any time.
Order placement method is fixed: place a long order directly at 72888; if it continues to dip to 72500, add another position. Stop loss is strictly set below 71500; a valid break means the large-scale structure has completely collapsed, so unconditionally admit defeat and exit, never hold the position. The first target is 74500; if broken, look to 75500 or even 76800. At 74500, close most of the position to lock in profits, and move the stop loss up for the remaining.
If the price hasn't reached the position, just hold cash and watch the show. Wait for that big bloody bearish candle to break through, then we enter to take profits. Follow the discipline. $BTC At the same price level, some people have already worn down a large portion of their principal by going back and forth. Have you ever had that feeling: the price barely moves, but your account keeps shrinking? Just now, when reviewing the market situation, I noticed this detail and was stunned for a moment. A certain trader entered and exited the semiconductor and storage line seven times; the price basically remained the same as a few days ago, but the cumulative loss has already reached 26 million USD. Breaking it down is even more interesting: SOXL 4,897 units, opening price 81.6, unrealized loss of over a thousand dollars; xKORU 8,157 units, opening price 11.6, unrealized gain of over a thousand; SKHY 649 units, opening price 156.9, unrealized loss of about five hundred. None of these single trades are exaggerated, but after seven round trips, the numbers look like this. I stared at these lines for a long time because this is not a matter of directional judgment, but of timing and position sizing. The price returning to the starting point indicates the market has not moved in a one-sided trend; what is truly being consumed is the trader's volume and patience. Every entry and exit incurs costs, and every "try again" amplifies exposure. From the perspective of derivative structures, this repeated in-and-out often corresponds to amplified losses in leveraged products. SOXL, a triple-leveraged semiconductor ETF, suffers continuous erosion from volatility in a choppy market; even if the underlying index returns to its original level, the net asset value may not recover. The same applies to xKORU. This is not simply "wrong directional calls," but the product structure itself eats away in a sideways market. Thinking deeper, this case actually reflects a facet of the current risk appetite: people are willing to in semi-conductor... The probability of the Democratic Party taking both houses exceeds 75%, and what Musk needs to guard against is not the stock price, but the hearings.
According to prediction markets, the probability of the Democratic Party simultaneously taking both the Senate and the House is about 76.5%. The US votes today, and the results will be clear by tomorrow morning Beijing time. Old Bull doesn't take sides on who wins or loses; he only watches Musk.
According to foreign media reports, Democratic lawmakers have long stated that if they take the House, they will investigate Musk's time at the Office of Government Efficiency, the contracts SpaceX signed with the government, and the clean energy subsidies Tesla has received. It was disclosed that Trump mentioned late Monday night Beijing time that he could preemptively pardon government staff if necessary. Speaking of Musk, he said this was just talk but that relevant people need protection.
Old Bull's interpretation: first distinguish which is emotion and which is the threshold. Hearings and subpoenas are emotional; they can last two years but cannot change the launch orders SpaceX has already signed. The real threshold is government contracts and subsidy money, which depends on how the subsequent appropriations are negotiated.
According to US stock market data, SPCX closed at 136.37 on Monday, and TSLA closed at 403.82; according to contract data, the two perpetual contracts are currently around 136.9 and 401.7 respectively, with no major moves ahead of the election.
The risk lies on the day the results come out; both stocks may first be driven by emotion for a while, and the noisier the news, the greater the volatility. The short-term long position on SPCX around 138.6 is still held as usual; Old Bull neither adds to the position nor opens a new one. The above is Old Bull's market notes before the vote, purely business, not politics. $BTC $ZEC $UNI 8th Anniversary, Founder Shares Five Sets of Data
On UNI's 8th anniversary, the founder shared several sets of data, containing a wealth of information.
1. The ratio of DEX to CEX trading volume has grown from 0 to 40%.
Decentralized exchanges are moving from the fringe to the mainstream; a 40% share is already a force that cannot be ignored.
2. UNI's spot trading volume is already equivalent to 31% of a certain exchange.
Hayden believes that if this number reaches 50%, UNI has the chance to become the world's largest trading venue.
3. In Q3 2026, there are 14,000 assets on Uniswap, with single-asset 30-day trading volumes exceeding $100,000.
This indicates that long-tail asset trading is very active, and UNI's position as the preferred platform for "new asset cold starts" remains solid.
4. Over the past approximately one and a half years, RWA trading on UNI has grown by 9,000%.
RWA (Real World Assets) is the hottest direction in this cycle; a 9000% increase shows UNI is rapidly capturing market share in tokenized asset trading.
5. Hooks on UNI v4 now account for 11% of protocol trading volume and are still growing rapidly.
The v4 Hook architecture is being adopted by more and more users; innovations like permissioned pools and dynamic fees are becoming Uniswap's new growth engines.
Eight years ago, the challenge was centralized exchanges.
Eight years later, the real opportunity to challenge lies in the trading infrastructure of traditional financial markets. 🔍 $504 million is still locked in the Optimism Bridge. What I want to check more is: has the "passage" of this bridge been affected? According to DefiLlama, its TVL has decreased over the week and is also dropping daily, but the material clearly states that fund inflows and outflows as well as price fluctuations can cause changes.
Don't rush to conclusions. I think for ordinary cross-chain users, whether withdrawals are smooth is more important than the ranking of locked assets.
An interesting detail here: the material provides the scale of funds but does not give withdrawal times, so the TVL decline cannot be directly judged as a problem with the bridge.
This is my speculation: if funds are indeed continuously withdrawing and withdrawals are slowing down, then this news might turn from emotional noise into a warning about user experience. I will continue to monitor withdrawal status and times, first separating the lines of "less money" and "bridge not working well."Three Scenario Trading Map for Both Chambers
JPMorgan provides probabilities: Democrats sweep both chambers at 66%, Republicans hold both chambers at only 7%. A low probability does not mean little market impact—Republicans holding both chambers is actually most favorable for US stocks.
The reason lies in policy continuity. If Republicans retain both chambers, AI infrastructure, deregulation of energy, and tax cut momentum will likely continue, congressional investigation risks will decrease, and uncertainty premiums will quickly recede. JPMorgan expects the S&P to rise 1%–1.25%. Corresponding actions: S&P target 7600–7700, BTC surges to 80,000, Brent crude oil falls back near 90, gold falls back to 3800–3900, buy on dips in tech infrastructure and energy.
If Democrats sweep, investigation authority and expectations for AI and crypto regulation will intensify, friction with the Trump administration will escalate, and volatility will likely remain high. The S&P may retest 7300–7400, BTC may fall below 75,000, Brent crude oil may surge above 100, gold may rise to 4100.
A divided Congress is a middle ground: executive policies are hard to be completely overturned, but regulatory and investigation intensity will be between the two extremes, with the market focusing more on policy tug-of-war.
Regardless of the outcome, the real pricing factor is not who shouts the loudest, but how control changes regulation, investigation, and policy rhythm. Scenario simulation, not investment advice.

#美国中期选举在即，哪些结果值得关注？ 美国中期选举进入关键时刻，摩根大通对国会未来四种权力格局进行了推演。值得注意的是，最可能发生的结果，并不意味着市场反应最强。 根据11月1日的预测市场数据，民主党同时控制参众两院的隐含概率约66%，民主党拿下众议院、共和党保住参议院约26%，共和党守住两院约7%，共和党控制众议院、民主党控制参议院仅约1%。 摩根大通预计，四种情景下标普500的潜在表现分别为： 民主党控制两院：-0.25%至+0.5%。市场可能担忧AI监管和数据中心政策，但总统否决权构成重要制约。 民主党控制众议院、共和党控制参议院：+0.5%至+1%。权力分散可能限制重大政策推进，市场或将其视为短期利好。 共和党守住两院：+1%至+1.25%。政策延续性较强，但财政赤字扩大可能推高长期美债收益率。 共和党控制众议院、民主党控制参议院：+0.25%至+0.75%。预算争斗和政府停摆风险可能重新进入市场视野。 这组数据对加密市场有什么启示？ 第一，关注美债收益率。财政支出预期变化可能影响长期利率，进而改变美元流动性和风险资产估值。第二，关注AI科技股。AI投资情绪若降温，可能通过纳指和整体风险偏好传导至加密市场。第三，关First, consider the worst-case scenario: my concern is not that no one visits the website, but that someone reads "targeted at the public sector" as "government endorsement," and then takes risks based on that expectation. Having done risk control, I am quite sensitive to this kind of cognitive leap.
The Ethereum Foundation has launched a dedicated website for the public sector, aimed at governments, multilateral organizations, NGOs, and other public welfare institutions. It provides accessible explanations of Ethereum, real-world case studies, and practical resources, introducing its potential as digital public infrastructure.
My judgment is that this helps the public sector understand Ethereum, but it is insufficient to prove new demand. ⚠️ There are two risks: presenting potential does not equal a commitment to adoption by institutions; existing cases cannot directly prove replication across different organizations, as compliance requirements and implementation conditions remain uncertain.
For ordinary people, my risk control advice is to separately record "confirmed facts" and "personal speculation." I will continue to look for concrete evidence of adoption and not substitute dissemination progress for actual implementation progress.*Institutions have exited, retail investors are taking over*

$SPCX Market Notes: $ZEC Catching Up on Decline, $HYPE Unstaking, and $CAP Unlocking Rhythm
This morning, ZEC saw a significant drop, once nearing the 1100 mark. Given BTC's continuous weakness, this is not surprising: previously, ZEC's actual price did not decline in sync, and now it seems like the start of a catch-up drop, with downward pressure still not to be underestimated.
Regarding HYPE, there has been a notable amount of tokens unstaked on-chain, requiring close monitoring to see if these tokens will be restaked. If the purpose of unstaking is to release tokens, the potential selling pressure is considerable—over 2 million tokens flowing out at once is enough to cause a significant price dip. In the short term, the destination of these tokens should be closely watched.
CAP remains in a sideways consolidation. It is not on this month's unlocking list; the timing is more likely in January. Tokens with small circulating supply and high control often experience rapid price surges before unlocking, so be cautious of a rhythm shift.
Overall, the interplay of catch-up declines, unstaking, and unlocking lines means market sentiment remains fragile. This is just a market observation and should not be taken lightly.
#美国10月非农前瞻：就业增长或牵动12月加息预期 Don't catch the flying knives! South Korean retail investors are aggressively buying $3 billion to bottom-fish SOXL, but where is the bottom?
Intel's earnings report caused a "nuclear explosion" with a single-day plunge of 28%, the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index plunged 7.2% breaking below the 200-day moving average! Coupled with ChangXin Memory challenging the AI storage narrative, the semiconductor sector is bleeding heavily.
Market reality:
On the 15-minute chart, SOXL was hammered from 82.93 down to 77.01, currently priced at 78.44. Moving averages are all in bearish alignment, MACD shows a death cross downward with volume increasing—this is a mass exit from stop-loss orders and forced liquidations, definitely not a low-volume gradual decline.
The most painful logic:
South Korean retail investors net bought $3 billion in October playing the "bottom-fishing god," but institutions showed a $386 million selling advantage. More critically, SOXL’s 3x daily reset mechanism means: on declines, passive deleveraging occurs; during sideways moves, continuous erosion happens. Playing SOXL perpetual contracts on OKX is like leverage on leverage; in a choppy market, time is never on the bulls' side.
Key levels:
77.4 is the short-term lifeline. If it doesn't hold, look for forced liquidation zone at 75.0-76.0; only above 78.0 can a rebound be discussed. Don't mistake pre-market green as confirmation of a bottom!
⚠️ The above does not constitute investment advice. Leverage stacking plus mechanism erosion means position management is paramount.
$SOXL $xKORU #闪迪业绩超预期并宣布拆股，股价跌逾13% An announcement usually contains only two lines: a certain exchange will launch OXY/USDT and PFE/USDT perpetual contracts tonight at 18:00 SGT. But behind these two lines lies a question—who is setting the price for this?
First, look at the action itself. Perpetual contracts are not spot listings; they don't require the project to have an actual circulating supply first, nor do they need market makers to establish spot depth. The exchange only needs to connect the index price and set the funding rate parameters for a contract pair to open. So these new perpetual launches are always faster than "a coin really being adopted by more people." The fact that $OXY and $PFE can be traded tonight indicates the exchange is willing to provide this tool, not that consensus on these two assets has been formed.
Next, consider the structure. After the contract goes live, the real determinants of profit and loss are not the underlying assets but three things usually omitted from announcements: the initial leverage cap, the funding rate range, and how thickly market makers are willing to post orders at the open. When these three are missing, the first hour's trading can be pushed around by very small capital; a price jump doesn't mean someone is opening a position, it just means the order book is thin.
Therefore, for new contracts like $OXY and $PFE, I tend to treat them as an "observation window" rather than an "opportunity window." The information contained in the opening jump is greater than the price itself—it tells you how deep the pool is and how many people are truly watching.
It's worth considering: when the cost of launching new contracts is this low, the expansion of contract numbers will continue to outpace real demand growth. Your attention might be the scarcest liquidity here.When I saw this message, my first reaction was: visible price VS actually being able to sell, the difference is not just a matter of a quoting interface. When the stock market is closed, the risk of collateralized lending does not take a holiday.
According to Chainlink, Aave Horizon uses perpetual contracts to provide weekend pricing for stock collateral. This dynamic reference price can reveal the decline in collateral value during non-trading periods, but it does not guarantee that seized assets have buyers to take over.
My judgment is: this is risk control catch-up, not liquidity clearance. Continuous quote updates can reduce the blind spot where collateral has dropped but is still valued at the old price; however, having a reference price does not equal having transaction depth. My speculation is that if weekend buyers are insufficient, then even if the risk is identified in time, disposal may still get stuck.
Therefore, I value "being able to sell" more than just "being able to see". When you evaluate this type of stock-collateralized lending, do you prioritize the weekend quoting mechanism or where the liquidation buyers come from? 1103 Review 🥃
This wave is really wearing people down.
$BTC has been hammered from 78800 down to around 76500, and ETH also dropped from 2318 to 2240. The rebound has basically had no strength; any slight pull-up is immediately pressed back down.
Right now, for BTC, watch the 76300-76500 range below, and for $ETH, watch 2235-2240—these are levels already touched today. If these hold, I think there will be some short-term recovery, but don’t rush to heavily buy the dip just because it’s dropped so much.
The most frustrating thing about this market is watching it drop a lot, feeling it should rebound, but every small rebound just grinds down further.
My current stance remains: don’t chase shorts, and don’t rush to bottom-fish.
Let the market find its own direction first.
If BTC can’t hold 76300, it might have to keep taking hits; conversely, if it can reclaim above 77000, at least it looks like it’s coming back to life.
The most important thing these days isn’t how much you make, but just don’t die before dawn. 😭Regarding the outflow of funds for $BNB, more data may be needed to make a judgment.
Within a few hours after the withdrawal function was restored, it is reported that only about $2.5 billion was withdrawn, accounting for less than 2% of Binance's custodial assets.
This at least indicates that, at present, it is not possible to conclude a solvency crisis on the platform based solely on net outflow data.
Next, continue to monitor the flow of funds and official reserve proofs.
$BTC A whale lost $5.84 million in 4 days, teaching us a lesson
$ZEC $BTC
Today, there was a case on-chain worth printing out and posting on the wall:
A whale spent $31.78 million over the past 4 days to buy 25,002 ZEC at an average price of $1,271; at the same time, he opened a long position of 18,910 ZEC contracts at $1,378.
This morning, ZEC fell below $1,200, triggering stop-loss on all his contract positions, losing $2.58 million; the spot holdings are currently at an unrealized loss of $3.26 million — totaling $5.84 million, wiped out overnight down to the waist.
Note, this is not a retail trader. Someone who can put up $31.78 million in cash plus heavy contract positions has capital and information channels far beyond ordinary people. If even he loses like this, it speaks volumes about how tough this market is.
Let's review: where did he go wrong?
First, he didn’t buy value, but the tail end of a narrative. ZEC has risen 142% year-to-date, 223% in six months, soaring from a 52-week low of $188 to $1,683. The $1,271 average price was bought at the tail end of a 6x rally. Buying into a 6x rally with "optimism about privacy coin narrative" is not faith, it’s hindsight faith.
Second, opening both spot and contract longs doubles the mistake. If the direction is right, profits double; if wrong, the wounds are salted. His contract entry price ($1,378) was 8% higher than the spot average price — a typical case of adding positions during a rise, raising the cost basis. A drop below $1,200 was enough to wipe out the leveraged portion.
Third, the stop-loss execution was decisive — this actually saved the remainder of his capital. Exiting contracts with a $2.58 million loss without stubbornly holding to liquidation shows discipline. The real problem was the quality of the entry decision, not the exit.
The broader significance of this case
Whether in US stocks or crypto, the script for chasing highs is the same: afraid to buy after a 3x rise, finally convinced after a 6x rise, then buying at the most crowded narrative moment. ZEC has now retraced nearly 30% from its 52-week high of $1,683, and today it dropped another 6%-9% in a single day — crowded trades always clear out fast and hard.
I have one rule for myself: for any asset, if the pullback from the high is less than 30%, don’t talk about "value," only "volatility." The former requires research, the latter discipline; mixing them is gambling.
What to watch next for ZEC?
- The support strength around $1,100-$1,200: this is the consolidation platform in the current rally; a break below would indicate a worsening mid-term trend
- Whether the privacy narrative’s heat is fading: XMR is still rising today, but ZEC is falling; internal divergence often signals the end of a rally
- Don’t forget that a week ago it was still at $1,280 being hailed as "value returning" by the whole network — market sentiment turns faster than you can adjust your positions
The market gives free lessons every day; today’s $5.84 million tuition was paid by the whale for us.

#ZEC #Whale #TradingDiscipline #MarketAnalysis4.5 for 1. The terms are straightforward.
Marvell is acquiring Lumentum in an all-stock deal, exchanging 4.5 shares of MRVL for each share of LITE. Official announcement states: implied enterprise value of $115 billion, equivalent to about $1132 per share, a premium of approximately 23.9% over prior rumors. On paper, it looks quite attractive.
The market disagrees.
In the US stock market, LITE closed down 18.59%, MRVL down about 12.7%. Both the acquired and the acquirer stocks fell. This combination is quite rare.
OKX tokenized stocks also plunged simultaneously. xLITE current price 687.85, down about 21.05% in 24h, lowest touched 681.04. xMRVL at 170.92, down about 15.72%.
The key lies in the words "all-stock." The value of LITE basically depends on MRVL's performance. If MRVL weakens, the exchange value shrinks accordingly.
Calculating: 4.5 × 170.92 ≈ 769.1. xLITE at 687.85 is about 10.6% below this implied price.
This 10% price gap is not given away for free. The transaction is expected to complete in the first half of 2028, still needing shareholder and regulatory approvals. The road is long, so a discount is necessary.
Do you think this 10% price gap is pricing in approval risk, or does the market simply not believe in this price at all?
#波动雷达：币种异动观察 $xLITE $xMRVL First, I calculated a tolerance account: to gain a bit more market flexibility, how much monitoring time must be paid, and how much volatility can be tolerated? These costs are hard to quantify, so I prefer to have less room for imagination and be more stable.
According to SoSoValue data, on November 2nd Eastern Time, the Ethereum spot ETF had a net outflow of $140 million, marking six consecutive days of net outflows. Among them, BlackRock's ETHA had a net outflow of $138 million, while Morgan Stanley's MSSE had a net inflow of $3.1511 million. This account shows that the outflow on that day was highly concentrated, and not all products were withdrawing funds.
My judgment is short-term bearish, but this cannot be directly equated with an overall $ETH demand downturn: continuous outflows mean that the ETF funding support is weak, and the differentiation among products indicates it cannot be generalized. I would choose to wait and not guess a reversal based on this data. If outflows continue, will you play it safe and wait for funds to return, or are you willing to bear volatility and bet on an early turnaround?Funds are flowing out of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and gold... but they haven't left the market!
In the last five trading days of October, there was a significant reversal in fund flows:
Winning groups:
• Small caps: +37
• Utilities: +36
• Energy: +35
• Banks: +20
Groups under pressure:
• $ETH : -52
• $BTC : -30
• Nasdaq 100 Index: -29
• $XAU : -28
What happened?
With the Federal Reserve maintaining high interest rates, the market is starting to consider the possibility of rate hikes.
WTI crude oil prices broke above $104 per barrel, reigniting inflation concerns.
Technicals are weakening, and cryptocurrencies are facing pressure from security vulnerabilities and a liquidation wave worth about $1.5 billion.
Important lesson: Don’t try to buy just because asset prices have dropped sharply!
Look for fund flows, seek relatively strong assets, and wait for clear risk entry points.
The market is always full of opportunities, but not all opportunities are where the crowd is focused.
If you had to choose now, would you follow the fund flows into energy and banking, or patiently wait for Bitcoin and Ethereum to recover?
