Weekly Recap Summary of the U.S. Stock Market as of October 25, 2026 This week (ending October 23 close), the U.S. stock market showed a pattern of divergence and volatility. The Nasdaq Composite Index closed at 25,955 points, down about 0.7% for the week, with a sharp drop of 2.6% on Thursday—the largest single-day decline in nearly four months—mainly due to rising concerns over AI capital expenditures and financing. The S&P 500 closed near 7,624 points, down 0.5% for the week; the Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at 52,215 points, up 0.4% for the week, indicating a rotation of funds from tech stocks to defensive sectors. The small-cap Russell 2000 rose about 2% for the week, showing relative resilience. The energy sector led gains, with Brent crude oil breaking through $117 per barrel during the week and closing near $117, reaching a five-month high, driven by escalating Middle East geopolitical risks: Houthi attacks on Saudi-related facilities, tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, and market rumors that the U.S. and Israel might take action against Iran after the midterm elections. Gold fell below $4,000 per ounce, closing around $3,996, down about 4% for the week, with its safe-haven appeal temporarily suppressed. Bitcoin fluctuated near $81,000, essentially flat for the week, balancing ETF inflows against macroeconomic pressures. The tech/AI sector faced significant pressure, with the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index sharply retreating. Meta dropped about 7% due to an upward revision in capital expenditure guidance, and chip stocks like Nvidia also weakened. The market is concerned whether massive investments in data centers can generate timely returns, compounded by high interest rates and persistent inflation, leading to a temporary cooling of the AI trading narrative. The energy and healthcare sectors remained relatively strong, while the communication services sector led losses due to adjustments in telecom stocks. Outlook for next week From my perspective, this message seems more like reinforcing positions amid defensive sentiment rather than confirming an uptrend. Ember monitoring shows that a certain large whale added $9.21 million USDC margin in the early morning, lowering the ETH long liquidation price from $2256 to $2181. Currently, this address holds about $397 million in BTC and ETH longs.
My first principle for trend analysis is to look at price structure. Large positions attract attention, but adding margin only indicates risk adjustment. I won't assume the market direction is upward just because the whale is still holding.
The second principle is to distinguish the purpose of the funds. This money is used to top up margin and cannot be directly considered new buying pressure. In my view, it somewhat soothes bullish sentiment but is insufficient to prove strengthened upward momentum.
The third principle is to wait for the trend to validate the judgment. Lowering the liquidation price expands the position's tolerance but does not automatically support the market. If the price strengthens later with matching volume, then I would consider it a confirmation of bullish confidence—this is my observation criterion, and the data does not provide this result.
The trend is the best friend; my stance remains to wait for confirmation and not take others' liquidation lines as my own direction. Facing such news of a whale topping up margin, what methods do you currently use to judge the trend: price structure, moving averages, or volume-price coordination? $BTC Bitcoin Falls Below 80,000: Retail Investors Liquidated for 670 Million, Whales Are "Buying Up"
Yesterday BTC broke below $80,000, hitting a low of $79,277 during the session. Approximately $670 million was liquidated across the market within 24 hours, with over 210,000 people forcibly liquidated. ETFs are also continuously bleeding—on the 22nd, a net outflow of $635 million, and on the 23rd, another $137 million outflow, totaling about $770 million over two days. Technically, BTC has fallen below the 50-day moving average for the first time since August, making the short-term outlook quite bleak.
However, the on-chain picture is completely different. Since October 1, Wintermute has transferred 9,458 BTC to 40 new wallets, worth about $770 million, interpreted as chip withdrawal after OTC large order settlements. More macro data also confirms this: Santiment shows wallets holding 10 to 10,000 BTC have cumulatively increased their holdings by about 85,000 to 89,000 BTC since mid to late September; CryptoQuant reports pure whale holdings have rebounded to 3.03 million BTC, with the fastest monthly accumulation rate since February this year.
On one side, leveraged longs are being liquidated and ETFs redeemed; on the other, whales are moving chips into cold wallets during the pullback. Yesterday, two whales’ long positions on Hyperliquid were also hit, losing $278,000—showing internal large holder long-short splits as well. The $80,000 level is a short-term watershed: holding it means the panic is a "false sell-off," but if it continues to break down, the next focus will be on $76,000 to $77,000.【63 stocks want to go on-chain, 22 companies say no first, how will OKXICE still play?】
OKX ($OKB) and ICE want to bring 63 US stocks on-chain, but 22 companies have clearly opposed, including Wells Fargo, Arm, Microsoft, and Google's parent company Alphabet. Tokenization of stocks hasn't officially taken off yet, and traditional listed companies have already poured cold water on this innovation.
The SEC's innovation exemption allows platforms to trade tokenized stocks under certain conditions, but issuing companies can object, and the platform cannot list the corresponding stocks. The reasons why companies oppose are not explained in the documents, so it cannot be directly assumed that they are resisting blockchain.
Tokenization indeed has selling points like 24-hour trading and on-chain settlement, but stocks cannot be recognized just by making a token casually. Without cooperation from issuers, the tradable assets will shrink, and liquidity and user appeal may also be discounted. Next, it depends on how many stocks OKXICE can finally list and whether the actual trading volume can pick up; if the remaining assets still have enough demand, this resistance does not yet mean failure.📉 Record of Peak 12 Million U Liquidation: Big Brother Maji's ETH Long Positions Explode One After Another
Main text:
On-chain data shows that the well-known whale "Big Brother Maji" account suffered a devastating blow
Capital curve: dropped from a peak of 12 million to 5,357 within 2 months, a drawdown of 99.96%
Liquidation details: triggered intensive liquidations around ETH 2,300, with the largest single forced liquidation close to 300,000
Fatal operation: attempted to add $250,000 margin midway to hold the position, but ultimately failed to prevent the zeroing out.
$BTC $ETH 💡 Early Saturday at 79,994, BTC fell below 80,000 for the first time in ten days. But after reviewing the data, I actually think this is the cleanest drop recently.
Why? About $219 million liquidated within an hour, with over $200 million in just 15 minutes from leveraged long positions being forcibly closed. No new negative news, US stocks had already closed on Friday — purely a mechanical chain reaction as the price stepped into a leverage-dense zone. This kind of drop clears positions, not consensus.
Look at two more numbers: RSI at 43 is neutral, 24-hour volume is 1.56 times the 30-day average, both bulls and bears are active. BTC is currently at 80,829, having reclaimed above 80,000.
The real pricing will happen next week: the FOMC on the 27th-28th, and the PCE on Thursday. The weekend is most likely just a bottoming-out waste of time.
My stance: wait and see. The 80,000 level hasn’t decided a winner, betting on direction before the FOMC is like flipping a coin.
What about you? This weekend, are you reducing leverage and sleeping easy, or lying in wait below 80,000 to catch the dip?

The above is my personal market observation, data as of today, not investment advice; crypto assets are highly volatile, please judge independently and bear your own risk (DYOR)24-hour spot fund data released! Over 300 million U fully withdrawn, BTC leads the sell-off, but short-term funds quietly flow back to buy the dip!
📊24-hour spot fund statistics
✅ BTC: 24-hour net outflow of 137 million U
12-hour net outflow of 131 million U | 6-hour net outflow of 20.9047 million U
✅ ETH: 24-hour net outflow of 125 million U
12-hour net outflow of 109 million U | 6-hour net inflow of 21.2959 million U
✅ SOL: 24-hour net outflow of 8.6389 million U
12-hour net outflow of 10.5514 million U | 6-hour net inflow of 3.2298 million U
✅ USDC: 24-hour net outflow of 9.281 million U
12-hour net inflow of 24.3291 million U | 6-hour net inflow of 1.2526 million U
Key points
At the daily level, the overall pattern is still full-line outflow, with BTC and ETH leading the sell-off, mainstream coins collectively sold off, and the entire market seeing a net outflow of over 300 million U in 24 hours, indicating mid-term selling pressure has been fairly released.
However, a clear short-term reversal signal has appeared: ETH first turned positive at the 6/8-hour level, BNB, XRP, and SOL also turned positive simultaneously, and USDC has had continuous net inflows over 12 hours, indicating funds are already accumulating in batches at low levels, a typical rhythm of selling while absorbing.
#10月FOMC临近,美联储暂停加息还有哪些变数? International oil prices have risen to their highest level in nearly six months. U.S. President Trump stated that the U.S. might launch a small-scale military operation against Iran, while the White House simultaneously announced that Russia and Ukraine agreed to a temporary ceasefire in Oleshky. Brent crude rose 3.13% to $116.72 per barrel, WTI crude rose 3.92% to $103.27 per barrel, with Brent crude up 6.24% cumulatively this week. The surge in energy prices has further strained markets already sensitive to inflation: the Dow Jones fell 1.23%, the S&P 500 dropped 0.52%, and the Nasdaq declined 0.21%. U.S. Treasury yields rose, with the 10-year Treasury yield increasing by 4.15 basis points to 4.9945%. Gold slipped below $4000 intraday, with spot gold closing at $3996.10 per ounce, down 4.07% cumulatively this week, as liquidity demand and rising yields pressured gold prices. Market Impact Analysis Stock Market The market showed clear sector rotation rather than broad sell-offs. Defensive sectors were sold off, while energy and semiconductor stocks rose. Micron Technology increased 2.46%, Marvell Technology rose 2.26%, reflecting sustained demand for AI-related chips. Apple hit a record intraday high, with its market cap briefly surpassing Nvidia's, but closed down 0.14%. In the Chinese market, the ChiNext Index surged 4.16%, and broad-based ETFs saw record trading volumes, indicating domestic investors actively buying on dips. The divergence between U.S. defensive sectors and Asian growth stocks highlights the influence of regional growth expectations and policy support on capital flows. Bond Market and Interest Rates Rising oil prices directly pushed up inflation expectations, impacting Federal Reserve policy.#Can Robinhood's trading business growth continue?
Trading revenue essentially depends on market sentiment and US stock volatility. If the US stock market enters a low-volatility slow bull or bear market, the activity in options, short-term trading, and prediction markets will quickly decline. Historically, Robinhood experienced a significant drop in trading revenue in 2022.Earnings beat expectations and guidance was raised, yet the stock price fell 3.68% — that's American Express on Friday.
Here's what happened: On October 23, Amex reported Q3 revenue of $20.06 billion, up 9% year-over-year; net profit was $3.71 billion, up 28% year-over-year.
Adjusted EPS was $4.68, higher than the market expectation of $4.48, but revenue was slightly below the $20.12 billion forecast.
On the same day, the company announced layoffs of about 5% (around 3,500 people), marking the first large-scale layoffs in a decade; restructuring costs were $336 million, partially offset by gains from equity sales.
Billing volume was $454 billion (+8%), but expenses rose 9% to $14.5 billion; the stock closed Friday at $313.22, down $11.95, with an intraday range of $311.40–$321.20.
My take: The market isn’t buying the "profitable but laying off" story — the business isn’t collapsing, but the problem is expenses are rising as fast as revenue, and layoffs are a signal to shareholders that operating leverage can still be squeezed.
My plan: Watch and don’t chase or catch a falling knife. Only talk about a bottom if it stands back above $321.20 (Friday’s high); if it breaks below $311.40 (Friday’s low), the thesis fails.
Do you think this is an "efficiency reform that deserves reward," or a "signal that the good times are over"? AXP V $MA
#USStocks #AmericanExpressBitcoin $BTC will break 80,000 this month, I've said it more than once before! Last night it really dropped to a low of 79,220 dollars, the prediction came true. But after breaking the level, it pulled back to 80,000, Bitcoin is still as strong as ever! Next week's news is all packed together! On the 28th, the Federal Reserve meeting, most expect no rate hike, but currently many predict another hike in December. If Powell continues to be hawkish, how can risk assets comfortably rebound? On the 29th, US GDP and PCE data will be released. Brent crude closed above 116 dollars last week, and Iran's threats to the Strait of Hormuz and undersea communication cables remain. With oil prices so high, inflation expectations won't ease that easily. At the same time, a large number of US earnings reports are coming out intensively. AI revenue can be very impressive, but if capital expenditure, financing costs, and cash flow don't deliver answers, tech stocks could still be hit. Bitcoin now increasingly resembles a high-volatility tech risk asset. If the Nasdaq continues to look bad, why should it rally alone? My judgment is still a bearish consolidation! The 80,000 level has been reclaimed, but that doesn't mean the decline is over. It can't hold above 82,000, so how can you be bullish? ETF funds flow in one day and out the next for three days; whether the buying is stable depends on 80,800
◆ ETF | Outflows are real, withdrawals are not
On Thursday, BTC spot ETF net outflow was 635 million, the largest in June; IBIT and FBTC redeemed 470 million in one day; but three days ago, there was a net inflow of 1.08 billion, and the weekly BTC still had a net inflow of 309 million. Funds are rotating, not retreating: outflows narrowed to 138 million on Friday, ETH even turned positive with 4.4 million, the first positive order in October.
◆ $BTC | 80,800 has been reclaimed, the buying side gave a point first
BTC current price is 80,888, recovering from the 79,220 dip on Saturday. On the day the ETF dumped the price, it held at 81,300; today it reclaimed above 80,800, indicating spot buying is stepping in. If the hourly chart holds steady at 80,800, then 81,000 is next; if it breaks below 80,500, let go and watch 79,220.
◆ Stabilization | Watch Monday, not the weekend
Weekend volume is low, the recovery might be a false move. Monday 06:00 US stock futures open will be the test: holding 80,800 means buying is stable; if it falls back below 80,500 at open, this week's ETF outflows are not yet finished.
#BTC现货ETF资金反复,市场买盘能否企稳? U.S. President Trump stated that the U.S. might carry out another small-scale "epic fury operation" against Iran, while not ruling out the possibility that Iran agrees to reach a deal. Trump said that if Iran is smart enough, it would directly say "let's get down to business," but he doubts Iran will do so because they might not be that smart. This statement has reignited the previously cooled geopolitical risk premium. In recent weeks, the market overall has been in a state of rising risk appetite, and this remark injects new uncertainty into that trading logic. Transmission path to the crypto market Geopolitical escalation is one of the few macro catalysts that can almost instantly transmit to digital assets, occurring simultaneously through multiple channels: Safe-haven capital flows: Escalation usually benefits gold, U.S. Treasuries, and the U.S. dollar. The correlation between Bitcoin and gold is unstable; during intense risk-off scenarios, BTC often behaves more like a high-beta risk asset rather than "digital gold" in the first 24 to 48 hours. Oil prices and inflation expectations: Any military action threatening shipping through the Strait of Hormuz will push up oil prices, directly raising overall inflation and complicating the Fed's rate cut path. Expectations of "higher for longer" interest rates create headwinds for long-duration risk assets (including crypto assets). Volatility and leverage: The open interest of perpetual contracts on mainstream exchanges remains high. News-driven spikes in implied volatility can easily trigger chain liquidations in both directions, causing price swings far exceeding the event's direct impact. Prediction markets: Geopolitical event contracts have become real-time sentiment indicators, hitting$GRASS, the small grass, saw a 1.06 million USD increase in long positions over 24 hours, but in terms of position size, the shorts are still twice as large as the longs. This coin has been oscillating back and forth for quite a while.
To put it simply, this round of price increase is mainly driven by old positions exchanging hands and short covering, rather than new funds entering with leverage.
Looking at some more direct indicators: the total forced liquidation across the network that day was only 3,425 USD, not even a small liquidation spike; funding rate is +0.005%, meaning the longs are paying the shorts an almost negligible amount; active buying is 51.3%, with buying and selling basically evenly split. The whole market neither squeezed anyone nor forced anyone out.The liquidity depth table is just a snapshot, not a safety certificate😅.
$ETH top five buy orders total $1.14M with a spread of 0.000%, like an ironclad wall. But nearly $1.1 billion has cumulatively flowed out of ETFs in October, with ETHA as the main selling pressure source. Thick depth only indicates someone is absorbing near 2400, it doesn't mean selling has disappeared; the order book and settlement orders often tell two different stories.
$PEPE depth is $156.4K with a spread of 0.022%, looking the most fragile. But on 10/16, 4.77 trillion PEPE left exchanges, a net outflow of about $20 million, eight times the average from 10/11 to 10/15; while BTC and ETH were sideways from 10/17 to 10/22, PEPE rose 13%. Thin order book plus withdrawals means volatility will be fiercer.
$HYPE depth is $2.2K with a spread of 0.001%, very honest: market makers are watching, but no one dares to place large orders. $36 million buyback and burn landed, moving only from 77.42 to 77.72 in 24 hours; authorization raised from $30 million to $100 million, but price dropped 21% from the 9/23 high of 97.96. Good news without impact, even more glaring than shallow depth.
Don't forget the risks: ETH's Hoodi testnet deployment delayed, mainnet date undecided; PEPE replenished 2.11 trillion tokens on exchanges from 10/19 to 10/22, exceeding previous outflows by 40%.
#10月FOMC临近,美联储暂停加息还有哪些变数? #AI需求支撑存储市场,芯片股行情反复 #中东原油供应风险再起,油价持续走强 Over the past 31 years, the S&P 500 index $SPY has only experienced significant pullbacks in November 3 times:
November 2000 (about -8%): The peak of the dot-com bubble burst. The Nasdaq continued to plunge after peaking in March, with frequent profit warnings from tech stocks (such as Gateway, Altera, etc.), clear signs of economic slowdown, plus political uncertainty from the 2000 U.S. presidential election (Bush vs. Gore) Florida vote count dispute, market sentiment was extremely pessimistic.
November 2007 (about -4.4%): Early stage of the subprime mortgage crisis. Housing market collapse, credit market freeze, major financial institutions like Citigroup and Merrill Lynch took large write-downs on subprime mortgage-related losses, financial stocks plummeted. Oil prices approached $100, the market began to worry about recession, the Federal Reserve had cut rates but signaled cautiously, triggering further sell-offs.
November 2008 (about -7.5%): The most severe phase of the financial crisis. After Lehman Brothers' bankruptcy in September, the market continued free-falling, with a drop of over 16% in October. During November, the Big Three automakers (GM, Ford, Chrysler) failed to get aid, Citibank was in trouble, retail sales and employment data were extremely bleak, deep recession fears intensified, and the S&P 500 hit multi-year lows.
There are 5 trading days left until November 2026. Historically, November has been very favorable for bulls. Hopefully, this time is no different, GM☀️First, consider the worst-case scenario: if the market continues to decline, adding margin might only delay liquidation, and more funds could be dragged into losses. This is the calculation I made when I first saw this news.
According to on-chain analyst Yu Jin's monitoring, a certain whale added $9.21 million USDC margin in the early morning, lowering the $ETH long liquidation price from $2256 to $2181. This address currently holds about $397 million in BTC and ETH longs. My judgment is that this looks more like a risk buffer rather than a direct bullish signal.
⚠️ I will watch three risk points: the liquidation price moving down changes the trigger point, but the long exposure remains; adding margin means putting more funds to cover existing risk, so it’s not just "safer"; if the market interprets the whale’s margin addition as a bottom confirmation, followers might easily overlook the differences in capital reserves and loss-bearing capacity between the two parties. This is my scenario analysis and does not necessarily represent what will happen next.
A habit left from previous risk control work is to first write down the maximum loss per trade and include possible additional margin, so don’t quietly reset the loss budget every time you add margin. Seeing news of such whale margin additions, how much stop loss do you usually set per trade—based on principal proportion or a fixed amount? $BTC just experienced a classic false breakout: after the weekly high was breached, the price quickly fell back, and the strength of the rebound remains uncertain. What truly deserves caution is not the decline itself, but that after losing support on both the daily and weekly charts, the market structure has shifted from a "correction" to "repeated harvesting." When more and more traders describe this trend as "being possessed by a shitcoin scam," the sentiment itself becomes part of the market movement. The most easily underestimated point is this: $BTC's current discomfort does not come from a one-sided drop, but from a two-way squeeze. Shorts get swept by rebounds, longs get stopped out by breakdowns; the heavier the leverage and the longer the position is held, the higher the probability of being "liquidated." This is not a directional issue, but a matter of position size and timing. The market hasn't become more dangerous; it has just become less suitable for heavy positions held stubbornly—this is more important to remember than any price level. In contrast, $ETH's relative resilience is becoming the focus of capital attention. The core observation of the original text is straightforward: Ethereum hasn't become as "disgusting to the extreme" as Bitcoin, and its daily structure hasn't been broken to the same extent. This divergence is no accident. As $BTC's false breakouts continuously erode bullish confidence, some capital naturally seeks cleaner structures and more controllable volatility, making $ETH a more favored trading target. This doesn't mean $ETH is stronger, but that its trend is more "reasonable." The market logic here can be condensed into one sentence: when every $BTC rally turns into a bull trap, traders shift from "betting on direction" to "picking structures." This also explains why the originalKey Points
Upside: First reclaim 81,200, then look at 82,600 to 83,000; only if it holds above can there be a chance to reach 85,000 to 87,000. There are sell orders stacked between 86,500 and 87,500.
Downside: 80,500 is the short-term defense line; if broken, look at 80,000, then further down to support zones at 77,800, 76,700 to 72,500.
Stop loss should not be placed at round numbers like 80,000 or just below recent lows at 79,200, as these are easily targeted precisely. It can be placed slightly below the support zone between 78,500 and 79,000.
Three common pitfalls:
1. Mistaking a wick for a breakout. Touching 83,000 and closing above 83,000 are two different things; only a close that holds above counts as a structural improvement.
2. Assuming geopolitical conflicts benefit BTC. This time it is a supply shock-driven oil price increase, a stagflation scenario; the Federal Reserve is unlikely to ease monetary policy, so BTC may not benefit.
3. Only looking at the Fear and Greed Index. It is currently around 50, neutral, not extreme panic; sentiment does not provide a bottom-fishing signal. The key is whether net liquidity has turned.
#10月FOMC临近,美联储暂停加息还有哪些变数? 💻 I want to break down this message as a code review: According to on-chain analyst Yu Jin's monitoring, a certain whale added $9.21 million USDC margin in the early morning, lowering the ETH long liquidation price from $2256 to $2181. Currently, this address holds about $397 million in BTC and ETH longs.
The input looks intense, but my judgment is: this seems more like a position risk control adjustment. Treating it directly as a market bullish signal hasn't passed the review logic. The addition is margin, the material doesn't say new longs were added, so "delayed liquidation" shouldn't be automatically translated as "new buying."
The logic of this operation is also clear: increase collateral to give $ETH longs a larger price buffer. But the potential bug is that lowering the liquidation line doesn't mean the risk disappears; if the price continues to fall, the position will still be under pressure. This is my conditional deduction, not a market prediction.
If it were me, I would treat the liquidation price as a risk observation point, not a support level. Another point to verify is that the $397 million corresponds to the total BTC and ETH longs, which cannot all be counted as ETH exposure, and this message alone cannot determine the overall safety of the account.
My preliminary review opinion is: I see the margin top-up action but no new directional demand yet. Please help me review, what did I miss in this judgment? Would you view this margin addition as bullish confidence or passive defense, and what is your basis?$2.6 billion worth of BTC flowed into exchanges in one day. The last time this scale appeared, BTC peaked a few weeks later.
32,380 $BTC flowed into exchanges in a single day, setting the highest record since April this year.
But strangely, this massive inflow happened while ETFs were frantically offloading.
On October 22, the US spot Bitcoin ETF had a net outflow of $635 million in one day, the largest single-day outflow since June.
Exchange inflows surged, ETF large outflows, and long liquidations accounted for as high as 89%.
What does this mean?
This is not retail investors bottom-fishing; this is high-leverage longs being forced to liquidate.
When the price dropped near 80K, leveraged longs couldn’t hold on and had to transfer spot BTC to exchanges to sell and repay debts.
After this wave of leverage cleaning is done, if ETF outflows don’t stop, then 80K will likely not hold, and the next target price is around 77K.
The last time a single-day inflow reached this level was three weeks ago, after which BTC crashed directly from the high.
This time, do you think the script will repeat?1. The macro underlying pressure has already emerged
Crude oil surges at high levels → Inflation expectations rise → US Treasury yields strengthen, gold directly breaks 4000 causing a stampede, this is a signal that interest rate expectations take precedence over risk aversion, which is the same bearish source for BTC, ETH, storage chains, and UNITREE.
Gold, as the most liquid safe-haven asset, failing first and crashing the market is often a leading signal of risk-off in major asset classes, with funds starting to prioritize cash recovery.
Moreover, liquidity thins out at night, so large sell orders cause amplified slippage.
$BTC $XAU Short-term capital replenishment cannot change the mid-term outflow: continuing to be bearish today.
BTC spot net inflow in 4 hours is $4.54 million, contract net inflow is $281 million. Extending to 24 hours, spot net outflow is $131 million, contract net outflow is $423 million. Short-term buying has returned, but mid-term funds are still retreating.
ETH's structure is weaker, with a 24-hour spot net outflow of $123 million and contract net outflow of $518 million. The 30-day contract net outflow has expanded to $8.21 billion, indicating funds have not truly reversed.
SOL spot and contract 24-hour net outflows are $7.11 million and $63.39 million respectively, with short-term rebounds lacking sustained capital support. Although ZEC has a 24-hour spot inflow of $3.88 million and contract inflow of $59.77 million, and a one-week contract inflow of $224 million, the 30-day contract still shows an outflow of about $997 million, making the current strength seem more like a localized capital game.
My view remains bearish.
4-hour net inflows are only considered as short-covering and low-level rebound grabs; 24-hour and 30-day data have not reversed, so the market has not completed a trend reversal. BTC's rebound cannot drive overall capital return, while ETH, SOL, and ZEC continue to face downward pressure.BTC dropped to $80,908.9, about 1.4% away from the lower bound of the 20-day range at 79,775. This line has been tested three times already—will it hold this time? First, the news. Price side: BTC at $80,908.9, 24h -0.94%, past week -0.54%, 20-day range 79,775.1 to 86,994.3—about 1.4% from the lower bound. Capital side: ETF latest single-day net inflow 29.3 million (seventh consecutive day), 5-day net inflow 204.7 million, 10-day net inflow 315.4 million. Sentiment side: Fear & Greed Index slightly rose from 50 to 51. Macro side: Dollar Index 101.75 (+0.14%), Gold 4,010 (-1.24%), S&P 500 7,623.68 (-0.52%). Next, looking at capital impact. When price tests support, the most important observation is "whether the capital is leaving." Today marks the seventh consecutive day of ETF net inflows, indicating real buying support near 79,775. This is more important than technical patterns—the reason support levels hold is because capital is willing to buy there. Implications for BTC: If it holds 79,775 this time and capital continues to flow in, this level will upgrade from "support" to "bottom area"; if it breaks, the next support is near 77,000. The key is the closing price, not intraday price. I will next watch four indicators: first, the daily close at 79,775; second, whether the ETF can continue Bitcoin has returned above $80,000. In the past 24 hours, the price once dropped to around $79,200, then this morning bounced back to about $80,800. From the low point, it has rebounded roughly 2%. This is certainly a good sign, but it's not enough evidence yet to say the market has fully turned around. Rather than focusing on how much it has risen, I am more concerned about how this rally came about and whether it can be sustained after the rise. First, let's mention a change that is easy to overlook: the price has come back, but contract open interest has not increased correspondingly. Taking the same platform and the same Bitcoin USDT perpetual contract I track as an example, at 00:28 this morning, the open interest was about 37,100 BTC; by 08:33, it had dropped to about 35,900 BTC, a decrease of approximately 3.2%. Here we look at the quantity of Bitcoin, avoiding the impact of price fluctuations on the USD value of open interest. This at least indicates that some positions in this contract are exiting. Whether it is long positions closing, shorts covering, or both sides, open interest alone cannot distinguish, nor can one platform represent the entire market. Therefore, this rebound may include buying pressure from short covering. To judge whether the price can continue rising, we need to see if sustained buying follows. The funding rate is also lower than the previous settlement. For the same contract, the 8-hour funding rate settled at +0.0075% at midnight today, and at +0.0037% at 8 AM. The new estimated rate displayed at 08:33 is about +0.0044%, and this number will still change. Putting these data together, I tend to first consider itMainstream Coin Liquidation Review: Narrow Squeeze, Waiting for the Rate Decision to Set Direction ⚠️
$BTC is near 81329, with liquidation amounts almost symmetrical up and down, but the chip structure is clearly divided: retail investors are mostly long, while over 70% of large holders are short. There is heavy short order ambush above; upward spikes seem more like shaking out retail shorts; volume increases while total open interest falls, indicating just a turnover without new shorts.📉
$ETH is more awkward, with price clinging to the liquidation zone both up and down, short-term positions are just a few dollars away from liquidation; spot ETFs continue large outflows, piling up selling pressure above, with intense tug-of-war between bulls and bears. $SOL's ecosystem data is solid but lacks independence, still short-term dependent on BTC's moves.🌊
The liquidation ranges for all three coins are compressed within 1.5%, leveraged funds are stuck in the grinder, any move could trigger a chain of liquidations. The biggest variable is the Fed rate decision on October 28: the consensus is to hold steady, but if the tone turns hawkish, risk assets will quickly come under pressure; combined with capital outflows from the AI sector, crypto cannot remain unaffected. For now, don't chase spikes; first watch the liquidation hotspots and the rate decision signals.👀#10月FOMC临近,美联储暂停加息还有哪些变数? #AI需求支撑存储市场,芯片股行情反复 #中东原油供应风险再起,油价持续走强 FOMC pause on rate hikes has variables, not in the decision but in the press conference
◆ FOMC | Pause is highly likely, with three variables
The Fed meets on October 27–28, announcement at 02:05 AM Beijing time on the 29th. The market prices about a 10% chance of a rate hike, consensus is pause; variable one is oil prices stuck above 116, whether the Fed sees through energy-driven inflation; variable two is whether Harker and Logan might vote against; variable three is whether Waller will hint at December during the press conference.
◆ $BTC | Just reclaimed 80,800, avoid heavy positions before the decision
BTC current price 80,888, just recovered from the 79,220 spike on Saturday. Heavy positions before the decision equal betting on the press conference wording. Hourly chart needs to hold above 80,800 before considering 81,000; break below 80,500 means letting go to watch 79,220, ETH follows if it breaks below 2,320.
◆ Variables | The real market moves come after the decision
The pause is already priced in; the real market action is after the press conference: hinting at a December hike will pressure risk assets first; no mention will trigger a short squeeze first. Outline these two triggers well, the decision night will follow the script.
#10月FOMC临近,美联储暂停加息还有哪些变数? 228M USD inflow and -351M USD outflow, BTC and ETH ETF fund flows almost move in opposite directions in the same week. Is this institutions choosing sides, or has the derivatives market already priced the answer in advance? I've been staring at this data for a long time. Bitcoin ETF net inflow in a single week is about 228 million USD, while Ethereum ETF net outflow in the same period is about 351 million USD, a difference exceeding 500 million. On the surface, it looks like a spot fund preference issue, but what’s really worth pondering is the coordination on the derivatives side: BTC perpetual contracts’ open interest and funding rates have been more stable recently, with no obvious overheating of leveraged longs; on the ETH side, hedging activity is more active, and futures basis converges faster. In other words, spot is buying BTC, but derivatives are adding a layer of cautious insurance for ETH. This structure indicates the market is trading not just "which is more favored by institutions," but pricing two different risk rhythms. BTC buying is more allocation-oriented, slow-paced, low turnover, providing a price floor support; ETH outflows combined with hedging demand make it more susceptible to amplified volatility from leveraged sentiment in the short term. Altcoins have not yet received obvious spillover funds, indicating risk appetite has not broadly increased; the sector internally looks more like a zero-sum game rather than a full recovery. The bullish path lies in: if BTC spot inflows continue and perpetual funding rates remain controlled, after price holds key support, allocation will gradually spread to ETH and large-cap altcoins, with rotation shifting from "single points" to "broad areas" Just opened the capital flow data, and I was completely stunned! This isn’t a crypto circle, it’s practically a large-scale schizophrenia scene! The data conflicts are outrageously absurd, and looking closely, it’s all tricks.
First, the short-term cycle (green on the chart): looking at data from 5 minutes to 8 hours, both spot and futures are crazily net inflowing! $BTC has seen tens of billions of dollars flowing in within a few hours, $ETH is following suit. No wonder after last night’s dip, it managed a hard V-shaped rebound—brothers with strong nerves are bottom-fishing, short-term funds are rushing in fiercely.
Now the long-term cycle (red on the chart): extending the data to 12 hours, 24 hours, even 30 days, the picture changes drastically, showing deep red net outflows! BTC lost 1.3 billion in 24 hours, ETH also lost 1.2 billion. What does this mean? Big players are frantically withdrawing during this rebound, while retail investors are desperately taking the risk!
Here’s the problem: short-term funds are aggressively buying, long-term whales are aggressively selling. This is very interesting. Is the main force deliberately creating a false prosperity to lure us retail investors into taking the risk? Or did the long-term funds misjudge, and this is really the golden pit of the last dip?
My view: with such large long-term outflows, any current rebound is a bull trap! Don’t listen to those big influencers shouting about a bull return; capital flow is the most truthful.

#BTC现货ETF资金反复,市场买盘能否企稳?
#交易之声:你的经验值得被听到 $ETH
All the coins are moving out from exchanges, so why is the price still stuck?
According to Santiment: On October 23rd alone, about 169,770 ETH were net withdrawn from exchanges, equivalent to over 400 million USD, the largest in four months. The last time such volume occurred was in June this year.
On the other hand, the US spot ETH ETF saw a net outflow of 955 million USD by October 18th, the biggest month this year, withdrawing for three consecutive weeks. Some are withdrawing spot ETH, while others are redeeming from funds; these two groups are offsetting each other.
I checked the market myself: ETH current price is 2363, last night’s low was 2282, down 0.3% in 24 hours, fees near zero, and open interest still hanging at 14.4 billion USD. No one is taking a directional bet.
Last time I took large withdrawals as a bottom signal and got stuck for two weeks. This time I’ve learned my lesson; I’ll note this number but won’t use it as a buying reason.
#10月FOMC临近,美联储暂停加息还有哪些变数? The $80,000 defense line has been breached, and leveraged long positions have suffered a "bloodbath." In the past 24 hours, the total liquidation volume across the network was approximately $820 million, with over 213,000 people forcibly liquidated, of which long positions accounted for as much as 93.1%. The largest single liquidation came from Hyperliquid, where a BTC long position worth $8.05 million was forcibly closed. This indicates that the previously crowded leveraged positions betting on a rebound triggered a chain liquidation upon the decline.
ETF funds are withdrawing simultaneously. On October 22, the US spot BTC ETF saw a net outflow of $635.6 million, marking the largest single-day outflow since June; on the 23rd, another $137.9 million was withdrawn, totaling about $774 million over two days, offsetting more than 70% of the previous net inflow of $1.075 billion.
Triple macro pressures compounded. The Nasdaq dropped 2.6%, Middle East oil prices broke through $112, and risk aversion intensified ahead of the Federal Reserve's October 28 meeting—risk assets are under comprehensive pressure, and BTC cannot remain unaffected.
Fear and Greed Index: 51 (neutral), market sentiment is not extremely fearful but still far from optimistic.
Funding rates: mainstream platforms still mainly have positive rates (Binance 0.0075%, OKX 0.01%), longs are still paying to hold positions, structurally unhealthy.
Long-short account ratio: Binance 68.2% longs / 31.8% shorts, retail longs remain crowded, inverse liquidation is not yet complete.
Daily RSI: 43.99, in a neutral to weak range, not yet oversold Storage stocks showed clear divergence on October 23📊: SK Hynix rose 4.42%, $MU up 2.46%; $SNDK down 1.82%, $WDC down 2.97%. Although all belong to the AI storage chain, capital is repricing based on business cycles and profitability quality.
The signal from the Korean market is stronger🔥. After the US semiconductor stocks plunged nearly 7% overnight, KOSPI opened down over 4% but closed up 0.30%. SK Hynix rebounded from a low open to a 4.42% gain, better than expected. The catalyst was Solidigm suspending its US IPO, easing concerns about dual listings and valuation discounts; however, AI data center SSD expansion continues, with changes in financing methods rather than demand.
The US side needs to be broken down: $MU focuses on DRAM, HBM, and data center memory; $SNDK on NAND; $WDC on HDD. Supply, pricing, and customer structures differ. Micron rebounded while SanDisk and Western Digital declined, so it’s not a direct storage reversal but more a differentiation of profitability sustainability and digestion of prior gains⚠️.
In the long term, AI computing power expansion still supports demand for HBM, DRAM, enterprise SSDs, and large-capacity HDDs. Cloud providers are not significantly cutting capital expenditures, and the industry fundamentals remain intact✅. However, position control in October is due to risks in valuation and capital structure. SK Hynix and $MU’s relative strength is worth tracking🔍 but not yet confirming a bottom; if the market restarts in November, companies with profit growth, fully adjusted valuations, and early capital support may lead. The defense is not over; the next round requires early research.Bitcoin dominance reached 60% as altcoins weakened. The split in ETF flows tells the same story: BTC funds gained about $309M last week, while ETH funds lost roughly $221M. Capital isn’t leaving crypto evenly — it’s becoming more selective. Until ETH flows recover, an altcoin-wide rally may be harder to sustain.Four-year investors just unlocked and cut about 60%, but monthly burn is only about 170,000 against roughly 1.5 million issuance. I think this wave of $APT "supply improvement" is still early.
On October 12 Beijing time, the four-year vesting for Aptos early investors and core contributors officially ended, with monthly unlocks dropping from about 11.31 million to about 4.54 million, roughly a 60% cut.
But the official supply dashboard numbers are even more striking: about 174,000 APT burned in the last 30 days, while staking issuance remains around 1.5 million per month, net increase about 1.4 million, burn only covers a bit over 10% of issuance.
On the coin side, OKX current price is about 0.718, 24-hour high about 0.741, low about 0.695, price hasn’t surged with the "reduced unlock pressure."
I acknowledge the halving of unlocks is a real reduction in selling pressure, but don’t mistake the narrative for actual deflation—the main story is that burn doesn’t outpace issuance.
First, see if the 0.695–0.70 range can hold; only after reclaiming about 0.74 can we talk; if 4-hour closes below about 0.695, expect a drop toward about 0.66.
Do you believe the halving of unlocks will gradually raise the price, or do you think the main story is that burn doesn’t outpace issuance?

#Today'sMarketTalk [A statement targeting energy facilities does not mean oil supply has been cut off]
In the breaking news at 00:04, the Houthi forces claimed to have attacked multiple targets in Saudi Arabia, including energy facilities and oil pipelines. This news should be taken seriously, but it should not be directly translated as "crude oil supply has been cut off." (From Jin10)
What I have currently verified is the statement; there is no independent confirmation yet of equipment damage, production cuts, or export suspension. There are risk clues that need to be followed up; I do not agree with treating the worst-case scenario as a fact prematurely.
What BTC and ETH really need to guard against is the subsequent confirmation of supply damage, a rebound in energy prices and inflation concerns, and a contraction in risk appetite. This is a possible transmission, not "oil price rises mean crypto must fall," nor can this be used as a strong reason to explain this round of volatility.
Over the weekend, traditional markets lack synchronous quotes, so using Friday's oil prices to prove today's negative news can easily lead to misjudgment. I am more concerned about whether there are substantial updates from facility operators, shipping, and supply sides; if the news is not further confirmed, the same headline should not be repeatedly amplified.

For informational analysis only, be aware of repeated news and volatility risks. U.S. Stock Market Review: Dow Plunges 650 Points, Tech Stocks Diverge, Semiconductors Become a Safe Haven!
Good morning, brothers. After watching the crypto circle, let's look at the U.S. stock market across the ocean—it's a tale of two extremes! The Dow plunged over 650 points, but semiconductors are quietly rebounding. Don't be fooled by the indexes; the underlying logic is very clear.
Major Index $BTC: Dow plunges, capital flees.
The Dow dropped 1.23% to 52,215 points, the S&P fell 0.52%, and the Nasdaq declined 0.21%. The trigger was oil prices soaring past $117, reigniting inflation fears, causing capital to frantically exit traditional sectors.
Semiconductors $SNDK: Counter-trend rebound, storage chips diverge.
The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index rebounded 0.44%. Micron rose 2.46%, SK海力士Q3财报在即,HBM4能否提振盈利? increased over 4%, AMD gained 1.74%. But SanDisk fell 1.82%, Western Digital dropped nearly 3%. This indicates capital is rotating within semiconductors rather than a full-scale advance.
AI Infrastructure $SPCX: Alarm sounds, don't rush to bottom-fish.
New cloud providers CoreWeave and Nebius plummeted over 30% this month, CDS spreads soared, and the market is starting to question AI investment returns. Meta's free cash flow turned negative, and capital expenditure guidance was raised to 135 billion. The AI narrative is undergoing a stress test; be cautious chasing highs.
Trading Strategy:
The U.S. stock market is not in a broad rally but a structural game. Semiconductors have capital support, but AI infrastructure risks are not fully released yet. #SK海力士Q3财报在即,HBM4能否提振盈利? Liquidity pricing dominates the market: October may be calm, the real test comes at year-end
The Federal Reserve is highly likely to hold steady at its October policy meeting. The current benchmark interest rate remains at 3.75%–4.00%, with the market pricing in a 92.8% chance of no change in October, and short-term rate hike expectations are very low. This means the meeting itself is unlikely to cause turbulence, as the market has already priced in a "steady" outcome.
The real risk to watch is at year-end. The probability of rate hikes in December and January next year both exceed 74%, with institutional funds already factoring in the risk of liquidity tightening. If rate hikes materialize, market liquidity could contract again, suppressing rebound potential.
On the market front, BTC is oscillating narrowly between 80,700 and 80,900, ETH is stabilizing around 2,370, and SOL is consolidating near 102. The three major mainstream coins are simultaneously experiencing volume contraction and consolidation, reflecting strong wait-and-see sentiment. Differences among the coins are also clear: BTC shows stronger volatility resistance, while ETH and SOL are more sensitive to liquidity, with expected higher elasticity and volatility than BTC going forward.
In the short term, the impact of the October meeting is limited; in the medium term, year-end liquidity expectations are the key variable for directional choices.

#10月FOMC临近,美联储暂停加息还有哪些变数? The moment the chest was opened, I didn’t look at the heart first—I first stared at the recalibrated baseline on the monitor. On October 21, the OCC put the final rules of the GENIUS Act on the operating table, with an effective schedule set for January 18, 2027, covering the three major cycles of issuance, reserve, and redemption. Issuers are still prohibited from directly paying interest; this "structural ban" remains intact, but the "presumed opposition" to third-party rewards has been removed—just like the previously completely blocked bypass vessels, now there is an assessable anastomosis. The compliance space is not infinitely expanding but has shifted from a "default narrow" to an "individualized hemodynamic judgment."
The ABA jumped out to oppose, citing the risk of deposit outflow. In cardiac surgery, this is called a volume load test—you divert blood from the central vein to extracorporeal circulation, the heart’s preload drops, and blood pressure fluctuates. If third-party rewards can truly divert funds from bank deposits to stablecoin platforms, it’s like replacing the entire circulatory system’s drainage tube; whether distal perfusion is sufficient depends on the caliber of the anastomosis and the body's autoregulatory capacity. Treasury Secretary Bassett said he supports innovation and competition; translated into surgical language: he believes this new catheter can improve tissue oxygenation rather than cause a steal syndrome.
The linkage with the $xNFLX US stock token should not be seen as an independent lesion. It’s more like the distal perfusion indicator on the intraoperative transesophageal echocardiogram—every change in the caliber of stablecoin reward rules alters the blood flow distribution around tokenized stocks. If rewards are allowed to be released through third-party platforms, in the short term, new funds will be attracted into this bypass, but the compliance boundary is like the postoperative anticoagulation INR monitoring window: too narrow, thrombosis forms, funds stagnate; too wide, bleeding risk, deposits relocate. The real lesion is not in the rewards themselves but in the elasticity of the redemption channel and the reserve during contraction of reserve assets—price crashes are just alarms on the monitor; you have to find the root cause of the decreased stroke volume.
The most dangerous aspect of this new regulation is that it places "prohibition of interest payment" and "lifting of third-party rewards" on the same surgical informed consent form. Regulators think they are performing valve repair, but the market might turn it into a ventricular septal defect—deposit outflow is left-to-right shunt, stablecoin scale is right heart volume load, platform compliance capability is pulmonary vascular resistance. Whoever decompensates first will show low cardiac output first. The OCC has provided a postoperative observation window until 2027, but an observation window is not a safety window; any volume fluctuation in between could trigger atrial fibrillation—that is, funds repeatedly shuttling between banks and the chain, forming an ineffective cycle.
Right now, I only care about one thing: whether this removed "presumed opposition" precisely excised a piece of obstructive myocardium or accidentally cut the vagus nerve regulating the autonomic nervous system. The linkage with $xNFLX has amplified the visibility of this issue, but visibility does not equal curability. The incision is already sutured, extracorporeal circulation has not yet been withdrawn, and the line on the monitor—what we need to watch next is who will perform the intraoperative transesophageal echocardiogram on the compliance boundary of third-party rewards—is it the platform itself, or the OCC performing a second thoracotomy before 2027? #geniusstablecoinrewards ⚡Breakdown on Saturday, recovery on Sunday! The repair is just a ticket; Monday is the real test
The weekend market showed a classic shakeout pattern: the floor broke on Saturday, and the early session on Sunday fully recovered. It looks stable but is definitely not a reversal signal❗
$BTC dipped to 79,220 on Saturday, briefly fell below the 80,000 mark, and has now rebounded to 80,888, with a slight 0.37% drop over 24 hours. The current funding rate is almost zero at just 0.009%, with no concentrated squeeze between longs and shorts.
Short-term strategy is clear: if the hourly close holds steady between 80,800–81,000 on a pullback, consider going long; if the hourly chart breaks below 80,500, stand aside and watch for another test of the 79,220 low.
ETH is also bottoming and repairing, hitting a low of 2,282, currently at 2,359, down 1.18%, showing continued weakness. A short-term stabilization between 2,340–2,360 can be used to catch a rebound; breaking below 2,320 means looking further down to 2,282 support. SOL also broke below 100 but quickly recovered, rebounding from 98.62 to 102.39, following the overall market volatility.
Capital flow is clearly divergent: large ETF outflows on Thursday and Friday, but BTC weekly net inflow remains 309 million, while ETH weekly net outflow is 221 million.
Remember the core logic: a pullback recovery does not equal a reversal!
Weekend repairs are just temporary tickets; Monday’s US stock market open will be the first real test, compounded by the heavy FOMC decision early on the 29th. If the price that held over the weekend fails at Monday’s open, it’s all a bull trap. Stay cautious and observant for now!
#10月FOMC临近,美联储暂停加息还有哪些变数? $DOGE continues to look bearish. In the past 24 hours, long positions liquidated $2.22 million, while short positions only liquidated $120,000. The ones squeezed out today were basically long leverage. The price dipped to 0.07472 before rebounding to 0.0777. The close doesn't look too bad, but during the rebound, shorts were hardly hurt. The pullback looks more like natural covering after long stop-losses were triggered, with no sign of new buying actively forcing shorts out. Open interest still stands at $210 million; the portion liquidated this time is not significant relative to the whole. Most longs remain open, so the next dip will likely hit their stop-losses again. Funding rates have swung back and forth with three periods of two negatives and one positive, just background info, not directional guidance. The chart shows progressively lower highs, bearish moving average alignment, volume expanding on declines and shrinking on rebounds, all pointing to the same bearish liquidation structure with shorts more aggressive. Intraday volatility is 5.8%. The lower boundary has been tested once; next time it will be thinner to support. Bullish reversal condition: price breaks above and holds the intraday high of 0.07905, with a clear increase in short liquidations, indicating shorts are being squeezed. At that point, this bearish view would be invalid.Just finished eating, guys, don’t rush to watch the market yet, the burp isn’t out smoothly, let’s give the altcoins a lesson first 😅 Over the weekend, Bitcoin is playing dead with sideways trading, while the small coins below start their "pig slaughter" show again.
$ZEC is currently around 1173, down 4.4%. Are the bears feeling great? But the 4-hour long-short ratio is only 1.30, and open interest keeps shrinking, indicating the bulls have been washed out almost completely, while the bears are crowded together. Chasing shorts now, be careful of a sudden squeeze and a rocket-like short squeeze reversal 🚀
$HYPE is around 77.2, the drop isn’t severe, but the data is painful: 4-hour long-short ratio is 2.57, retail bulls stubbornly holding on, the position is heavily leveraged. Until the leverage is fully cleaned out, it’s likely to drop further, don’t rush to catch the falling knife 🔪
$UNI is at 6.95, down 3.3%, not far from the previous low of 6.79. The 4-hour long-short ratio is 2.64, and open interest is sharply shrinking, indicating a batch of leveraged bulls have been liquidated, but many are still holding on stubbornly. If it breaks the previous low, it could trigger a chain stampede ⚠️
Summary: Retail bulls’ sentiment is not dead, so the bottom is hard to see. Bitcoin’s sideways trading is just a cover-up, altcoins have already been bleeding heavily. Stay out of positions, wait until the high leverage is completely cleaned out before making moves 🧘♂️ #10月FOMC临近,美联储暂停加息还有哪些变数? #AI需求支撑存储市场,芯片股行情反复 #中东原油供应风险再起,油价持续走强 $ORDER ⏰ Unlocking is happening tomorrow, but the price has already been pushed up today!
This time it's a cliff unlocking, releasing 9.34 million tokens all at once.
They pump the price before unlocking so those who get the unlocked tokens can sell at a higher price.
This is the classic move used by manipulative whales: first pump to attract buyers, then slowly dump after unlocking.
The unlocking amount this time looks small, only 2.26% of the circulating market cap, but the amounts in the unlocking schedule keep increasing; this is just one batch.
If fewer people chase the price higher, it will be hard to absorb the continuous selling pressure from subsequent batches.
Unlocking is tomorrow; don't wait until the selling pressure crushes the price and regret it—start shorting now!📉 The crypto market is collectively falling, and the real issue is not BTC dropping below 80,000!
In this downturn, what I find most concerning is not the price itself, but that the market's capacity to absorb the decline is being tested.
On October 24, BTC briefly fell to $79,280. In the past 24 hours, about $815 million worth of positions in the crypto market were liquidated.
What’s even more notable is that the US spot BTC ETF saw a net outflow of approximately $773 million from the 22nd to the 23rd.
💰 What does this mean?
The demand from some of the funds that previously drove the rise is weakening, and the concentrated liquidation of leveraged long positions has further amplified the decline.
The external environment is also unfavorable. The US tech sector is weakening, oil prices are rising, and the market is beginning to reassess inflation and Federal Reserve policy risks.
⚠️ My judgment is that this is not a crash caused by a single negative factor, but a concentrated release of leverage risk after a decline in funding demand.
What’s more important than the 80,000 integer level going forward is whether ETF funds can resume inflows and whether there is real spot buying support during BTC’s rebound.
If funding does not improve, even a brief recovery above 80,000 cannot be easily taken as the end of the correction.

#BTC #Bitcoin #ETH #Cryptocurrency #MarketAnalysis⚠️ Beware! The so-called "bottom confirmation" of BTC may just be an illusion
Recently, many people have been shouting that the $BTC bottom has been confirmed and are ready to start a new round of rally. But looking back at historical cycles, it’s clear that the true bottom has never been so easy to judge 📉
In previous bear market bottoms, several key signals usually needed to be gathered:
✅ Price approaches the 0.786 Fibonacci retracement level
✅ Weekly chart enters oversold territory with bullish divergence
✅ Price touches or even breaks below the 200-week moving average
✅ Large-scale long liquidations, market sentiment completely hitting rock bottom
Looking at the current situation, not all of these conditions have been met yet.
There is also a risk scenario that cannot be ignored: BTC first makes a rebound, surging to $92,000–$100,000, forming a secondary lower high, then turns down again to start a new round of decline.
If this pattern forms, the $39,000–$48,000 range will be a key observation zone.
⚠️ Key point: This is only a projected risk scenario, not a guaranteed outcome.
Don’t rush in driven by the "bottom confirmed" slogan. Cycle bottoms require multiple signals resonating together for confirmation. Be patient and avoid heavy bets on a reversal!

#10月FOMC临近,美联储暂停加息还有哪些变数? From the August vulnerability to the October node retreat: A full review of Core DAO's "soft death" method
Core is not undergoing a sudden hard crash but a slow contraction and gradual abdication in a soft exit path. On August 31, a reward contract vulnerability erupted, allowing validators to exploit the rule loophole for excessive issuance; some tokens fled early, becoming ghost sell pressure. In September, an emergency hard fork destroyed 150 million excess CORE, but the plan did not roll back historical transactions, so the existing escaped tokens were not cleared, only blocking subsequent vulnerabilities.
Entering October, the hallmark event was the continuous withdrawal of official validator nodes. Currently, only about 20 active independent validators remain, weakening away from the 31-node expansion target and approaching the critical consensus halt line of 15 nodes. The project team no longer assumes responsibility for node operation and network backing but retains control over treasury management, code upgrades, and hard fork leadership.
All commercial roadmap initiatives have failed: SatPay card licensing is continuously delayed, on-chain gas fees are minimal, and the originally planned Q3 revenue buyback lacks cash flow support. Large transfers from reserve addresses continue, exchanges are successively restricting CORE deposits and withdrawals, and liquidity keeps shrinking.
Staking BTC relies on Bitcoin's CLTV time lock, with the principal redemption channel independently stable. The so-called soft death means the chain can barely produce blocks and does not directly go to zero but no longer invests resources to push commercialization, relying on existing TVL and narrative to slowly absorb tokens.In the past 24 hours, the forced liquidation amount of long positions in the $SOL market reached 4.65 million USD, nearly three times the scale of short liquidations. This is not an ordinary pullback but a targeted purge of leveraged longs. The real warning signal lies in the liquidation structure: shorts were hardly squeezed. This means that during this round of decline, there was no "shorts forced to buy back" momentum in the market, so the rebound naturally lacks fuel. In other words, the price drop is driven by the liquidation of buyers rather than panic selling by sellers—these two types of declines are fundamentally different, with the former often indicating the downtrend is not yet over. A more critical comparison is: a position size of 8.8 million USD corresponds to a trading volume of 1.1 billion USD. This ratio is significant, indicating that the remaining long positions in the market are still sufficient to withstand another round of liquidation. In other words, what was liquidated today is only the first layer; there is still ammunition below to continue triggering further liquidations. From the funding rate perspective, the rates for three cycles are all slightly positive. This can only serve as background reference and does not constitute directional guidance—the market sentiment has not yet reached an extreme to give a reversal signal. The technical aspect echoes the above logic: highs continue to move lower, and moving averages show a bearish alignment. 101.63 is today's low, also close to the previous low area. Once this level is broken, it will trigger a series of long stop losses below, and new lows are very likely to arrive before any rebound. For longs to regain control, the price needs to break above 105.22—today's high. The significance of this level is not just the price itself; it represents the end of the long liquidation wave and the buying pressure.August vulnerability → September hard fork → October node retreat: The death trilogy of Core DAO, played out punctually every month
Three major events in three consecutive months connect the trajectory of Core's continuous weakening. In August, a reward contract vulnerability erupted, allowing a few validators to over-mint, with 69 million ghost tokens escaping, laying the hidden risk of long-term selling pressure; in September, an emergency hard fork destroyed 150 million excess tokens, but the plan did not roll back transactions, so the existing escaped tokens still circulated, only plugging the subsequent minting loophole; entering October, official nodes continued to go offline, with only about 20 active independent validators left, approaching the red line of 15 nodes stopping.
These three events escalate step by step: first, the underlying economic contract exploded, then a hard fork was passively used to remedy and soothe the market, and finally the project party chose to retreat nodes, shedding operational responsibility and passing consensus risk to a small circle of validators.
None of the roadmap's positive promises were fulfilled: SatPay kept being delayed, on-chain gas income was meager, and Q3 revenue buybacks lacked cash flow support; the treasury code permissions remain in the team's hands, and large transfers from reserve addresses repeatedly occurred.
Staking BTC relies on Bitcoin's CLTV timelock, with the principal redemption channel independently stable. One round of negative news each month, with no new positive developments to hedge, this "death trilogy" is the most realistic rhythm this year.💻 I treat this message as a code review: The input is that Lookonchain detected a certain whale holding a total of 93,184 ETH long positions, valued at about $214 million, with liquidation prices at $2,256.45 and $2,226.53 respectively.
My judgment: This is a leverage risk warning, not a directional signal for $ETH. The position is large and worth attention; but the logic of "big players dare to go long, so I also go long" misses several judgment conditions.
There are two potential bugs: the data does not provide the current price, so you can't just look at the liquidation price to assert imminent danger; nor does it provide the scale of each of the two position groups, so you can't treat the $214 million as potential selling pressure at the same price level. If the price drops and triggers liquidation, then forced closing might amplify short-term volatility—this is my speculation and should not be written as an inevitable scenario.
If I were to revise this observation logic, I would first supplement the price distance, position distribution, and market absorption conditions before assessing risk. For ordinary users, using whale positions as a reason to follow trades is more like a bug that needs fixing than just missing a piece of news.
Everyone, please help me review: when judging the liquidation impact of this position, which data would you prioritize to supplement? What other loopholes do you see in my logic?CORE holders must see: Latest update on 10.25, is your staked BTC redemption channel still stable?
Many stakers are most concerned: with only about 20 independent validators left and official nodes continuously withdrawing, will BTC be unrecoverable? The core point is to treat BTC principal and CORE rewards separately. Staked BTC is locked on the Bitcoin mainnet through CLTV time locks; BTC itself has no cross-chain custody. After the lockup period expires, redemption rights are guaranteed by Bitcoin script rules and are not directly affected by the survival of Core validator nodes. The underlying channel for principal redemption is stable.
Risks are concentrated on the rewards side: CORE block reward distribution depends on Core chain and relay relayer data synchronization. If validators continue to drop and fall below the 15-node suspension threshold, relay services will be interrupted. After expiration, BTC can still be retrieved, but corresponding CORE rewards may be delayed, experience reconciliation anomalies, or even fail to be distributed.
Other known negatives remain unchanged: SatPay continues to be delayed, Q3 revenue buybacks failed due to minimal on-chain Gas income; in August, a vulnerability left 69 million ghost tokens, and large transfers from reserve addresses continue to exert selling pressure.
Principal security relies on Bitcoin’s underlying rules, but rewards depend on Core ecosystem operation. Stakers should focus on two key indicators: lockup expiration time and validator count changes. Do not equate BTC principal security with the stability of CORE rewards. Just saw this, and my first reaction was: Even Microsoft and Google oppose it, is stock tokenization hitting a wall? According to CoinDesk, companies like Microsoft and Alphabet, Google's parent company, oppose their stocks being traded on the OKXICE platform, a collaboration between OKX and Intercontinental Exchange (ICE). The number of publicly listed companies explicitly opposing this has risen to 22.
But after thinking about it, I feel this is a resistance to the advancement of the related platforms, but it doesn't mean the entire direction of tokenization is rejected. The industry judgment in the headline can be discussed, but since the material doesn't elaborate on why these companies oppose it, I dare not draw conclusions for them.
My understanding is that just because the trading form changes, it doesn't mean the underlying rights relationship of the stock is automatically resolved. If the issuing company's attitude affects product implementation, then which stocks the platform can offer may be uncertain. For ordinary users, "being able to trade" and "what rights are actually held" are two different things. I think the latter is more important than the label of being on-chain.
I've only been in the circle for a year and still haven't figured out: How much impact does the issuing company's opposition have legally and in actual operations? 🤔 I want to ask experienced people in securities tokenization: When evaluating such products, should one first check the issuer's authorization, or first look at the token's corresponding shareholding and redemption arrangements?
