$QUANT short side unit time holding cost is relatively high: current 4-hour rate -0.0243%, price -1.27%, open interest -3.42%. Decline accompanied by position reduction, new positions have not yet matched; holding short positions through settlement at the current rate, funding fees will lower the breakeven price.Yesterday, a brother messaged me privately, saying he lost three months' salary on ZEC and asked if I could hold on.
I didn't reply. Because three months ago, I was also holding on.
That feeling of waking up in the middle of the night to check my phone, palms sweating—I know it all too well.
So today, with two short positions, ZEC floating profit is 434%, SanDisk floating profit is 88%, I’m not too excited. Someone asked me if it's the right time to bottom-fish now? My view: it's not time to pull the trigger yet.
The reason is simple, let's first look at $BTC. Without a clear stop to the decline, mainstream coins will hardly have an independent rally, let alone altcoins.
So what conditions should we wait for? Wait for $BTC to first show a decent pullback: a 5%–6% drop, or directly break below 80,000 to wash out floating chips and leverage.
Right now it feels more like a tug-of-war, consuming time and patience. ETF spot funds are simultaneously flowing out, and capital heat is cooling down, which also indicates that incremental off-exchange funds are still watching.
If you heavily enter at the wrong point, you will be very passive later.
So, don't rush to be a hero; waiting for signals is more important than guessing the bottom.
#BTC、ETH现货ETF同步转流出，资金热度降温 #美国9月非农仅增2.9万，失业率升至4.2% #美伊局势持续紧张，G7将释放最多1亿桶储备 After 13 consecutive wins, I lost all the profits I made
I started trading signals in January, and the first 13 trades were all profitable. Then, on the night between June 2nd and 3rd, I lost it all and even ended up in the red. No excuses, I just got carried away.
The original strategy was to short, only taking small bites on the rebounds. But after making some money on the small longs, the feeling changed: the more it dropped, the more I bought; I cut a batch at night and then doubled down, and in the end, everything was forcibly liquidated.
The point of reviewing trades is never just to remember the feeling of winning, but to break down the reasons for losing as much as possible. Being able to read the market doesn’t mean you can hold your positions; the real opponent in trading is always your own emotions.
$BTCWhen $XAUT rises, it's called a "safe-haven asset," and when it falls, it's called "the dollar is too strong"—gold always has an excuse, so it never has to take responsibility.
The best part is: people who buy gold ETFs think they own gold, but actually they own a piece of paper; people who buy physical gold bars think they're safe, but they still have to find a place to hide them. The core product of the entire industry chain is actually "peace of mind."
Gold won't make you rich overnight; it will only let you stay decently poor when others go bankrupt.SAND COOLS OFF AFTER A VERTICAL RUN.
I'm watching $SAND near 0.07368 after tagging 0.08416 and cooling off. Up 63.87% over 7D, yet still -3.69% over 180D. Fast rallies test discipline more than conviction. Do you size smaller when volatility expands like this?
#USNFPDataCools "Capital rotation is the eve of market rotation"
When BTC is tugging back and forth at a high level, the price is just a surface phenomenon; the flow of capital is the real script. If BTC maintains a strong sideways trend, overflow capital usually first targets liquidity, then chases elasticity.
BTC: The integer price levels are not the focus; whether volatility can continue to compress is more critical. If it holds steady, risk appetite has room to expand; a sharp surge followed by a drop easily interrupts rotation.
ETH: Watch ETH/BTC. It is a thermometer of capital preference. If it is weak, money stays with BTC; if it strengthens, the catch-up rally narrative will reheat.
SOL: Ecosystem heat, contract positions, and volume sentiment must align. Only with multiple resonances can rotation be considered truly established.
HYPE: After a strong coin accelerates, the biggest fear is consistency divergence. A strong coin with sufficient turnover can continue; if volume expands but price doesn’t move, a retreat is often near.
ZEC: After an initial rally, first observe whether the chips settle. Without incremental capital returning, the rebound looks more like a repair, not a new trend.
Market trends often follow an order: BTC sets the direction, ETH determines volume, and SOL and other high-elasticity assets set the sentiment level. The opportunity is not in chasing the hottest, but in understanding in advance who will be repriced before capital rotation.
This is only a personal market record and does not constitute trading advice. $BZ bulls bet on "geopolitical conflicts," bears bet on "economic recession," but both sides are often wrong—because the final price is decided by those old men sitting in the conference room holding the production numbers.
And don't forget: every electric vehicle sold chips away at the long-term story of crude oil. In the short term, it is king; in the long term, it is a sunset.
Those trading crude oil spend half their time watching the market and half watching the news broadcast.Don't rush to set a direction for $NEAR yet. The 1-hour and 4-hour charts are still conflicting, and this is when it's easiest to mistake a rebound for a reversal.
I'll look at the levels first, not guess the direction. The current price is 4.769, about 3.46% away from the 1-hour support at 4.604, and about 1.05% away from resistance at 4.819. The space isn't determined by sentiment; ultimately, it depends on which of these two boundaries is effectively broken first.
The 1-hour chart is slightly strong with an RSI of 66, but the 4-hour chart is weak with an RSI of 41. Short-term sentiment and the larger timeframe structure are not aligned. Positions like this are the easiest to mistake a rebound for a reversal or a gear shift for a top.
There are only two conditions that would make me change my judgment. My observation line is clear: regaining and holding above 4.819 means the short-term control is back; breaking below 4.604 means shifting focus to the 4-hour support at 4.59. If pressure continues above, the 4-hour resistance at 5.54 is just a distant reference for now, not a preset target.
I don't only share when my judgment is correct. How the price chooses between 4.819 and 4.604 next will be publicly reviewed in the next round.
If you could only pick one timeframe to make a judgment, would you choose the 1-hour or the 4-hour?
The market is volatile; the above is only market observation and does not constitute investment advice. This is Crypto Bull speaking.It's the weekend, and Bitcoin is hovering around 84900 now. Last night it touched 85000 but couldn't hold. ETH is even worse, struggling at 2690, and 2760 feels like hitting a wall.
I'm very familiar with this weekend market. The Wall Street folks pull out by Friday afternoon, market makers disappear, and the order book is as thin as paper. Trading volume is nearly 20% less than usual, big money has fled, leaving only retail traders and bots playing around. $ZEC is the "Lone Admirer Award" winner in the cryptography community.
It invented zero-knowledge proofs, has the strongest privacy technology, and the most solid academic endorsement. Then it used this set of technologies to create a coin that even exchanges dare not list.
Once regulation tightens, it gets delisted; once delisted a lot, liquidity dries up; once liquidity dries up, the price collapses. The stronger the technology, the quieter the death.
The irony is: those who truly need privacy don't use it (they use mixers), and those who use it just want to hype a "privacy narrative." So ZEC has become a project that "provides privacy for people who don't need privacy."
Zcash has proven that cryptography can change the world—just not proven it can change its own price. am the mid-term intelligence guy.

From PoW to PoS, from Layer1 to Layer2, from DeFi to NFT and then to RWA—the narrative changes more often than phone cases, while the price moves more steadily than a turtle. Its ecosystem is indeed thriving: thousands of protocols, millions of addresses, tens of billions in TVL. Unfortunately, what’s thriving is the ecosystem, not the coin price. Gas fees have dropped, developers are happy, users are more convenient, but only the holders are still waiting for the "Ethereum summer." The most painful part: Solana pumps 50% in a day, Ethereum goes up 3% in a day. Others are partying, it’s calculating fees on the side. In short: Ethereum isn’t failing, it’s too successful—so successful that everyone uses it, but no one is willing to pay a premium for it. To be honest, I myself thought it was risky for this trade to last until now; luck played a big part. Yesterday at dawn, the market rebounded, with $XRP facing obvious resistance above and volume not keeping up. I judged that no one would catch the rise, so I signaled a short position at 1.5141.
Later, it really gave the answer, dropping all the way from 1.5141 to 1.4865, with a return of +183.6%. That profit felt good.
The market is something you wait for, and profits are something you hold onto. Don’t get greedy with gains, don’t despair over pullbacks.
I first closed 80%, keeping the remaining 20% at cost as protection. If it continues to drop, let the profits run; if it rebounds, don’t give back the profits. For friends who haven’t entered yet, listen to me: now is not the time to rush in. Wait for the next signal before making a move.
$DOGE $BNB $BTC Bitcoin is the world's most expensive "proof of belief." It generates no cash flow, pays no dividends, and no interest; its only function is to prove you can hold on better than your neighbor. Every crash, someone shouts "this time it's different," then it bounces back, and those people become prophets; every surge, someone calls it a "bubble," then it doubles again, and those people become a joke. Bitcoin's biggest moat isn't its computing power, but humanity's poor memory. You ask how much it's worth? It's worthless—the value lies in those who firmly believe it will rise. As long as there's a next buyer, it's digital gold; if not, it's just an expensive hash string. In short: buying Bitcoin isn't buying the coin, it's buying an illusion of your own resolve.The ECG shows an almost straight line—minus 0.06%. This is not cardiac arrest; it’s myocardial stunning before the storm. Vital signs on the monitor appear stable, but perfusion pressure has quietly dropped to the 5% level of the Bollinger Bands short-term channel. Don’t be fooled by this slight number; the real lesion lies in the hemodynamics.
First, look at the short-term Bollinger Bands: the price runs along the lower band, only 0.0% from the lower band and just 0.1% from the upper band—the vascular lumen is extremely narrow, a typical sign of low perfusion. Next, the mid-term channel shows the price at the 25th percentile, with lower band support at +0.2%, and the upper space compressed within 0.7%. This is like a coronary artery blocked 70% by plaque; contrast agent can’t pass, but the myocardium is still holding on.
The RSI1H has fallen below 38. What does 38 mean? In cardiac surgery, this is the alarm line where ejection fraction drops below the critical value. It’s not shock, but the compensatory mechanism is fully activated. Bulls and bears are making the last bridge anastomosis at 0.70—the stitches haven’t broken, but the needle holes are already bleeding.
Our intervention strategy: no chasing highs, no forced thoracotomy during systole. Wait for a precise stop-flow perfusion. Entry is set at 0.68, 2.1% below the current price—this leaves a myocardial protection window for pullback. Take profit is modest: first target at 0.71, +2.2%, equivalent to restoring TIMI grade 2 flow after reopening the occluded vessel; second target at 0.70, +0.7%, a conservative collateral circulation compensation level. Stop loss is set at 0.62, -11.6%—this is the extracorporeal circulation bottom line; if breached, it’s like an aortic dissection rupture, and surgery must be immediately terminated and chest closed.
This is not a myocardial infarction; thrombolysis is not needed. This is a scheduled bypass graft; choosing the right access is more important than speed.
📈 Long:
Entry: 0.68 (current price -2.1%)
Take Profit 1: 0.71 (+2.2%)
Take Profit 2: 0.70 (+0.7%)
Stop Loss: 0.62 (-11.6%)
The rhythm has not yet resolved, but anesthesia has been administered. Every step on the table follows the percentages precisely. The three main themes of the $OKB launch event have been confirmed: on-chain assets, AI automated trading strategies, and global digital finance.
As a result, the short positions on OKB that had been squeezed for half a month have finally dispersed in the past couple of days, with many shorts cutting losses and exiting. STH-SOPR looks at whether short-term holders are overall making a profit or a loss when selling coins. A value greater than 1 indicates average profit realization, while less than 1 indicates average loss realization.
From BTC reaching STH-RP to the early bull phase peak:
(1) In 2019, STH-SOPR fell below 1 about once;
(2) In 2023, it fell below 1 about twice;
(3) In 2026 so far, it has been 0 times. Nonfarm payrolls only increased by 29,000, yet the long end is soaring
U.S. nonfarm payrolls in September increased by only 29,000, while the market had originally expected 90,000; the unemployment rate rose from 4.1% to 4.2%, and average hourly earnings increased by just 0.1% month-over-month, with the previous two months revised down by a total of 60,000.
Normally, this should have been a bond market celebration night, but the 10-year yield closed at 5.28%, touching 5.342% intraday, the highest since early 2002; the 30-year yield also once reached 5.62%. Even more intriguing is the conflict between two surveys: the business survey reports an increase of 29,000, while the household survey says employment increased by 406,000.
Single-month data is no longer sufficient to support any conclusions. The Federal Reserve can control the front end, but not the back end — this is probably the real highlight from last night.
$BTCLet the index and Bitcoin go bearish
There are three stages to judging the top
1. Slightly breaking a new high then immediately falling back
At this point, you can suspect a possible bear market
But it’s only suspicion, the probability of a bear market is about 30%
2. Suddenly breaking short-term support with high volume
At this point, the probability of a bear market or correction rises significantly
I believPositive factors have been realized, but the non-farm payrolls fell significantly short of expectations.
The October rate hike bets continue to weaken, but don't mistake macroeconomic positives for a license to chase gains.
$BTC faces heavy resistance above, and rebounds are often pushed back. It's better to wait for a pullback confirmation than to catch a falling knife now. Before the trend strengthens, buying the dip should be done in batches; the market never caters to sentiment.
$ETH's direction is relatively clear: with cooling rate expectations, buying on pullbacks remains the main strategy, but timing is more important than direction—don't get caught up at the end of a rally.
$ZEC currently lacks an independent trend and mostly follows the broader market. When Bitcoin is unstable, it’s hard for it to outperform; right-side signals are more reliable than guessing the bottom.
In short: news can ignite the market, but capital determines the height. ETF outflows and persistently high long-term rates indicate pressure remains. Respect the market, wait for pullbacks, and avoid chasing highs.

5 waves up into supply is an obvious read for concern.
If the DATA was actually bullish Friday then the market wouldn't of found weakness into the close. IMO it's a bull trap.
ETH rejected supply last week. The obvious trend to this rally is the gold line. Once we break that the trend will be over. Bull case is a 50-61% retracement in the $1,950-$2,100 range. "Weekend consolidation trains the mind, not the hands"
The weekend market is quiet, BTC is at 84600, ETH at 2680, fluctuating within a range. This is when it's easiest to get itchy hands, but the best move is often to do nothing.
Looking back at this week, on the day the nonfarm payrolls surprised to the downside, the whole market was hyped up. How many chased longs up to the 87000 peak? Then Saudi Arabia made a move at night, directly smashing it back to 83000. Data is superficial, sentiment is a trap. When everyone is hyped, you need to stay calm; when everyone panics, that's when you can be greedy.
BTC ranged between 83000 and 87000, ETH between 2650 and 2800, moving sideways for a week without breaking up or down—just grinding. Chasing rallies and selling dips kills fastest; the right way is to scalp back and forth. Short near the upper boundary, lightly long near the lower boundary, take profits and run.
Opportunities are to be waited for, not chased. Don’t watch anxiously over the weekend; focus on the next wave of variables: oil prices, the Middle East, and CPI. Everything else is noise.
A good mindset beats any indicator. Survive the consolidation, and when the bull market comes, you can feast.
#美国9月非农仅增2.9万，失业率升至4.2%
#BTC、ETH现货ETF同步转流出，资金热度降温 The most accident-prone moment for a building is not the day of piling, but the first time the scaffolding is removed after the topping out. $APT is currently at this node: a 24-hour increase of 4.41%, short-term RSI has already burned up to 70.3, which is a typical overbought load; while the long-term RSI is only 54.1, indicating that the foundation settlement is not yet complete, and the load-bearing system has not been tested by time.
Looking at the short-term Bollinger Bands, the price position has already hit 120%—the upper band has been broken through, falling back 0.6% below the current price, while the lower band is far away at 3.7%. This is not a strong breakout; this is a cantilever structure exceeding the red line by 0.6%, with no parapet above and a 3.7% clear space below. Looking at the mid-term Bollinger Bands, the price is at 97%, only 0.2% clear space from the upper band; the floor slab is already pressed against the formwork, and pouring another layer of concrete upward would cause the formwork to burst. So the signal is to short, not to go long.
The entry point on the blueprint is at $0.64, 2.0% higher than the current price—that is to say, the price must rise another 2.0% of virtual stress before I am willing to enter and build a reverse structure. Take profit is set at two retracement support points: one at $0.59, which is 6.1% below the current price; the other at $0.60, 4.9% below the current price, which is the floor slab elevation of the previous level, a platform for funds to safely land. Stop loss is set at $0.70, corresponding to 12.1% above the current price, which is the seismic joint—once broken through, it means the stress direction has been completely rewritten, not just a cantilever issue.
Frankly, this reinforcement is not pretty: the stop loss range is almost twice the first-level take profit, the load is asymmetric, and the shear risk is greater than the bending moment risk. But structural judgment is structural judgment—overbought is the accumulation of stress, not the reinforcement of value.
📉 Short:
Entry: $0.64 (current price +2.0%)
Take Profit 1: $0.59 (-6.1%)
Take Profit 2: $0.60 (-4.9%)
Stop Loss: $0.70 (+12.1%)
The crack at short-term RSI 70.3 is more trustworthy than its blueprint—all floor slabs poured hard against the formwork will eventually crack under their own weight. #strategyplaybookThe U.S. Treasury Secretary came out to boost the market, saying there’s no need to be overly worried about rising U.S. Treasury yields, and directly denied that AI is in a bubble. The meaning is that the current rise in bond yields is a global common phenomenon, so no panic is needed; big companies like Microsoft and Google have real revenue, so AI can’t be considered a bubble. $SNDK But we need to be clear about one thing: officials’ speeches are just verbal reassurances to calm emotions. Saying there’s no problem doesn’t make the real pressure disappear in a few words. The persistently high U.S. Treasury yields are solid data on the table, and high interest rates will continue to pull funds out of the stock market and crypto space. The continuous outflows from BTC and ETH ETFs are the most direct reflection of this. Whether AI is in a bubble or not, the market itself is very divided. The Treasury Secretary only represents the official stance and should not be taken as the definitive investment answer. $MU In the crypto market, these remarks at best provide a short-term boost to market sentiment but won’t change the real flow of funds. Don’t blindly turn bullish just because a big shot is reassuring. $SKHYNIX Market trends don’t depend on what’s said verbally but on where the real money flows. U.S. Treasury data and ETF fund flows—these hard indicators are what we should focus on. Verbal comfort won’t change the real pressure, so don’t let rhetoric mislead the rhythm. #美国9月非农仅增2.9万，失业率升至4.2% #BTC、ETH现货ETF同步转流出，资金热度降温 #SEC加密资产托管新规，拟放宽机构自托管限制 ETH’s bearish setup is still in play as spot Ethereum ETFs have recorded four straight days of net outflows, totaling around $118M for the week.

I'm very familiar with this weekend market. The Wall Street folks pull out by Friday afternoon, market makers disappear, and the order book is as thin as paper. Trading volume is nearly 20% less than usual, big money has fled, leaving only retail traders and bots playing aroundPONS Sharp Decline: Has It Reached a Reasonable Value Bottom? How Much Has the Investment Value Changed?
1. Has it fallen to a reasonable value bottom?
Conclusion: Currently, it can only be said that it has entered a low valuation range, but it cannot yet be confirmed that it has firmly established a value bottom.
The value bottom is not a single price point; it requires two conditions to resonate: protocol revenue stabilizing after a decline + market selling pressure basically exhausted.
1. Price aspect: The previous high point has fallen back, and valuation has been significantly compressed. Around 0.5U is a key support level closely watched by the market, serving as an observation threshold for sentiment and valuation. Once it is effectively broken, there is little strong support below, and it will continue to probe lower.
2. Core fundamental variable: Platform token issuance enthusiasm has declined, with protocol revenue dropping by up to 88%. The value foundation of PONS is 80% of fees automatically used for buyback and burn, with buyback funds entirely dependent on platform trading volume.
- If the number of new tokens issued on-chain rebounds later and fee income recovers, the current price is the value bottom; with the same buyback funds, more tokens can be bought back and burned at low prices, highlighting deflationary value.
- If the Meme sector’s popularity continues to wane and trading volume keeps shrinking, buyback funds will keep decreasing, so the current price is still not the bottom, and valuation will continue to be revised downward.
3. Chip aspect: PONS is close to full circulation with no large locked tokens as a buffer. As long as whales keep selling, the market liquidity is thin, making it easy to continue a slow decline. Currently, only speculative bubbles have been squeezed out; there is no clear signal of whales concentrating accumulation or selling pressure exhaustion.
In simple terms: The price has already fallen below valuation discounts, but fundamentals have not confirmed a reversal, so it can only be considered a low range, not a value bottom.
2. How much has the investment value changed?
1. Valuation aspect: After the decline, the cash flow value per token increases (positive change)
Assuming protocol revenue remains unchanged, the lower the token price, the more PONS can be bought back and burned with 80% of fees, increasing the protocol income rights per token. The PEG (market cap/annualized revenue) valuation multiple significantly decreases, and compared to the high bubble phase, cost performance is significantly improved.
At the high phase, the market gave a high sector sentiment premium; after the sharp drop, the sentiment premium has largely been cleared, and valuation returns to business cash flow pricing.
2. The fundamental value itself has not changed qualitatively (core fundamentals unchanged, but revenue decline weakens value)
✅ Unchanged:
- Fixed total supply, no new minting; protocol rule is 80% of fees used for automatic buyback and burn;
- Positioned as Robinhood Chain token launchpad, ecological infrastructure attributes unchanged, long-term plan for new social trading applications unchanged;
- Contract has no minting authority, underlying economic model framework unchanged.#OKXNOW: The future is here, major content is being revealed 2.55 BTC for a life: The "wrench attack" in Kyiv late at night forced the mnemonic phrase into a deathbed statement
A 29-year-old foreign BTC holder was returning to his residence in Pechersk district, Kyiv late at night, and was ambushed at a corner, dragged into a cellar. The kidnappers didn’t want his watch or passport, but first asked: "Wallet mnemonic phrase?"
Refusal—electric shock; refusal again—neck compression on the carotid sinus until the victim weakened, then fingerprint/face unlock on the phone, cold wallet, hot wallet, exchange two-factor authentication all accessed, 2.55 BTC (about $280,000–$300,000 by 2026 standards) diverted to mixers, Russian exchanges, offshore shell companies. The victim was not released, put in a sack, and buried in a shallow pit in a suburban forest.
This case exposed the industrial process of "crypto holder kidnapping":
Target selection: Telegram groups, NFT avatars, currency exchange groups, flaunting wealth in nightclubs—all tags for being targeted;
Wrench attack: no need to hack the chain, attack the person directly—waterboarding, stun guns, finger cutting, strangulation—much faster than cracking elliptic curves;
On-chain laundering: BTC goes into mixers/cross-chain bridges, with the war in eastern Ukraine and multi-country judicial vacuums, recovering stolen assets is harder than mining.
In wartime Kyiv, black markets, mercenaries, dark web intermediaries, and cross-border population flows are all under pressure, making crypto holders "walking private key safes."
On-chain says "Not your keys, not your coins," but in reality, "If it’s not your life, it’s not yours either." Non-farm payrolls landed, but the market didn't move in unison, leading to full-on divergence.
$DOGE reported at 0.09249, down 2.77%. Sentiment-driven assets are retreating, prices approaching support; light positions for trial and error are okay, but don't hold hard if it breaks down.
$ZEC reported at 1292.41, down 5.82%. Selling pressure released from previously strong assets, key support is precarious, once lost, downside space opens up.
$SKHYNIX reported at 1372.7, down only 0.17%. Chip-related asset showing clear resilience, following the semiconductor cycle, becoming a safe haven.
In this kind of divergent market, will you wait and see or take a small position to try your luck?

#美国9月非农仅增2.9万，失业率升至4.2% Maji's position structure: direction can be adjusted, but the main line must not be messed up
Big brother Maji has made a move again. After today's operations, the position was rebuilt to $145 million, all long positions.
Don't just focus on small coins for entertainment; what really matters is the structure: BTC 290 coins worth about $24.52 million, ETH 37,100 coins worth about $99.43 million, HYPE 177,000 coins worth about $15.54 million, PUMP about 1.025 billion coins worth about $5.65 million. The four long positions total $145 million, with an unrealized loss of about $1.027 million and a margin usage rate of 83.76%.
What’s more worth pondering is the rhythm. He didn’t just blindly add positions all the way: from early morning to afternoon, he first reduced BTC, ETH, and HYPE, with a net loss of about $171,000, then gradually rebuilt the position, adding 53 BTC alone. Reducing first then adding back shows he is adjusting, not stubbornly holding on.
The core idea is actually very clear: BTC and ETH form the main positions, small coins are for flexibility. The direction can be wrong, and positions can move, but the main line never changes. A large position doesn’t necessarily mean being right; it only shows he is still willing to bet on this direction at the moment.
The difference from ordinary traders is: he has structure, priorities, and room to maneuver. Most people either go all-in on a single bet or chase small coins chaotically, with neither a base position nor discipline.
$145 million looks impressive, and an unrealized loss of over a million is real money. But the position structure is more worth watching than the size—clear main line, distinct priorities, and room left; this is the confidence to withstand volatility.
$BTC $ETH $ZEC In the same financial report, it looks like two different companies
After reading this latest financial report, it's hard to simply say whether it's getting better or worse. Revenue, net profit, and earnings per share all slightly declined year-over-year, but the gross margin rose from 42.2% to 42.8%. The management themselves described the current situation as "two completely different realities."
On one side is the sports business including running, soccer, and basketball, aiming for $16 billion in fiscal 2026, continuing double-digit growth this quarter; on the other side is the lifestyle business, which accounts for nearly half of the company's revenue, experiencing double-digit decline this quarter. Revenue from just one classic shoe was cut by nearly 50%, and another popular series also dropped by mid-double digits.
No matter how fast the former runs, it can't pull the burden of the latter. When looking at financial reports, always focus on the structure, not just the total number.
$NKEYesterday, a brother messaged me privately, saying he lost three months' salary on ZEC and asked if I could hold on.
I didn't reply. Because three months ago, I was also holding on.
That feeling of waking up in the middle of the night to check my phone, palms sweating—I know it all too well.
So today, with two short positions, ZEC is up 434% floating profit, SanDisk up 88%, but I’m not too excited.Early stage of a bull market, having a base position is more important than being smart
At the start of a bull market, there’s a lot of noise and frequent shakeouts. What’s most lacking isn’t opportunities, but chips you can hold onto. The five base cards—BTC, ETH, SOL, ZEC, UNI—aren’t short-term toys, they are the backbone of the on-chain world. Strong consensus, active ecosystems; getting off easily often means buying back at a higher price.
The approach has only three steps:
1. Hold down the main position. Don’t be led by intraday fluctuations. In the early phase, missing out is more painful than being stuck; the base position is your ticket.
2. Roll the auxiliary positions. Use small positions to play the rhythm: buy the dip, reduce on the rise, and lower your cost basis; keep some profits to act again during panic. Auxiliary positions are seasoning, not the main course.
3. Replace in batches. When there’s a sharp drop, first check the logic, then the price. If fundamentals aren’t broken, gradually switch to stronger targets. Never spend all your bullets at once. Leave room and patience. The volume has shrunk and the indicators have all dulled; neither bulls nor bears have the courage to make a move. Since the market is so cold, don't rush to join the crowd. Entering the market now is like throwing punches inside an empty bottle—it's all unnecessary internal friction. Account locked, market muted; saving some losses is better than anything else.
$AVAX $LINK $SEI $SPCX price retraced from about 210 in early August to 110, then rebounded, currently trading around 157 to 159, above the daily moving average of 139, and is testing the downtrend line since the June high. The low in August looks like a shakeout, and the subsequent higher lows favor the bulls, but 160 remains a key level.
The key level 160 is the downtrend line; a breakout trigger point is 149 as the first support. If the rebound continues, it will be the main resistance. A close above 160 will confirm a reversal; if resisted, 149 will act as support, and 139 is the must-hold defense line.
$BTC, if it rises back to the 85500 area and shows rejection signals, will prioritize looking for sell points, targeting 83000, with a further target around 82400.
If BTC retraces to 83900, further down to the 82200 area, and shows a reaction absorbing selling pressure, it will wait for confirmation signals to look for buy points. The immediate target is 85000, with a further target of 87200 or higher. #特斯拉Q3交付超预期，股价一度涨约5% #美国9月非农仅增2.9万，失业率升至4.2% #OpenAI拟1.4万亿美元估值融资300亿美元 This week the account experienced big ups and downs, reaching a high of 6076, then pulling back to 5235, like riding a roller coaster.
Let's talk about the current positions:
AMD short position is currently the only profitable one, with an unrealized gain of 14.41%. The bearish call at this high level was on point, the forced liquidation price is still far away, so the safety margin is thick.
HYPE long position is slightly losing, but the loss is controllable, still waiting for a rebound opportunity.
NFLX Netflix long position is suffering a heavy loss, with an unrealized loss of 43.19%. This is the biggest loss source this week, directly eating up most of the profits.
Lessons learned:
Greed at the top without taking profits leads to quick profit erosion when the market pulls back. Also, holding heavy positions against the trend causes losses to keep expanding.
Next plan: Hold on to profitable positions firmly, no longer blindly add to losing positions, strictly control position size, prioritize protecting principal, and avoid gambling on a big bet.
For those trading US stock contracts recently, which trade hurt you the most?Day 33, October 2nd, single-day profit +2,953.48 yuan, account back in the black. $BTC $ETH
On this day, the market gave all the shorts a harsh lesson.
The US September nonfarm payroll data was a shock, with only 29,000 new jobs added, far below the expected 90,000, and the previous two months were revised down by a total of 60,000. The unemployment rate rose to 4.2%. After the data release, the probability of a Fed rate hike in October plummeted from o"$DOGE Scores Another Win: US-Compliant Perpetual Contracts Are Here"
DOGE takes another step forward. Kalshi officially launches DOGE perpetual futures, allowing US users to participate in DOGE leveraged trading under CFTC regulation for the first time.
Key points:
① Uses CF Benchmarks' DOGEUSD_RTI as the price reference;
② Supports 24/7 trading;
③ The first compliant DOGE perpetual channel in the US market.
Compared to traditional futures with expiration dates, perpetuals have no fixed term and can continuously track DOGE prices. This is significant: compliance accelerates, liquidity channels open, and institutional participation becomes easier. DOGE moves one step closer from a meme to a mainstream financial instrument.
But don’t just focus on the positives. Compliant leverage is still leverage, and volatility can still be amplified. The news may trigger short-term sentiment—don’t chase the highs, wait for a pullback. The long-term consensus on $DOGE remains, but position sizing and discipline will always matter more than the narrative.
#数字资产信息合规受关注 #美国加密税收与BTC储备法案获推进 Non-farm payrolls surprise on the downside, don't rush to call a bull rebound
Non-farm payrolls fell far short of expectations: only 29,000 added in September versus 90,000 expected, unemployment rate rose to 4.2%. The market is starting to speculate on the Fed, but US Treasury yields and the dollar remain firm, so don't assume rapid easing will happen. ⚠️
$BTC held above 86,000 in early trading, surged to test 87,000 after data release, up 2-3% intraday.
$ETH rebounded from 2,600 to 2,750, breaking out of the late September consolidation range, but the rally is relatively weak.
$SOL showed the strongest elasticity, currently around 122, up 3%-4% in 24 hours, outperforming Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Although the market has rebounded, external interest rate constraints remain. This round does not yet constitute a major trend, and it is too early to declare a bull market return.

Look at the smart money's moves: the number of short sellers decreased by 75, but the short position amount counterintuitively surged by over 22 million U.

$ETH $BTCBTC is stuck between two liquidation zones, which side to sweep first?
Just took a look at the BTC liquidation map, the structure is very interesting: between 82000 and 83000 below, there is a very dense accumulation of liquidations; above, between 87000 and 88000, there is also a clear liquidity cluster.
In other words, the current price is stuck between two liquidity vacuums. What really matters is not guessing the direction, but whether to sweep the lower side first or push up to the upper side first—once the price enters any of these dense liquidation zones, volatility could significantly increase.

$BTCINSIGHTS: #ZRO is up 15.4% today on speculation after addresses linked to LayerZero strategic partners transferred 8M ZRO to Coinbase Prime.Weekend Altcoin Notes: Recovery and Waiting
Watching altcoins over the weekend, rhythm is more important than emotion.
UNI hovered around 9.15 in the afternoon and returned to 9.23 by evening. The advance isn't fast, but it hasn't given back all the intraday recovery. This slow pullback pattern is more worth tracking than a sharp spike. It has still dropped about 4% in the past week, so it's still in the recovery zone. If subsequent pullbacks narrow and then test upward again, I will be more confident; if it breaks below 9 again, it indicates insufficient buying momentum. Let the price speak for itself first.
NEAR rose slightly from 4.64 to 4.67, only a minor rebound, with the weekly chart still down about 10%. I don't consider this the end of the correction. After a big prior gain, naturally some want to catch the dip, but whether they can hold depends on future pullback tests. Especially when it dips again after a rebound, don't justify every drop by saying it's cheap.
SOL remains around 119, no widening from midday, no new directional information. When it's moving sideways like this, there's no need to make up stories for every small fluctuation. Wait for a clearer move, then see if the pullback can hold; this is more meaningful than constantly switching between bullish and bearish calls. Patience doesn't need frequent trading to prove itself.
On the news front, the SEC's new crypto asset custody rules propose easing restrictions on institutional self-custody. If implemented, this could improve flexibility for institutions participating in custody, but in the short term, it still depends on whether funds are willing to vote. Strategically, watch if UNI's recovery can continue, wait for stabilization signals from NEAR, and keep waiting on direction for SOL. Don't get ahead of expectations; let the price lead the way first. $UNI $NEAR $SOL $ZEC ✅ The Three Pillars of Long-Term Holding
🏛️ Regulatory Moat: The Only Privacy Coin Accepted by Wall Street
ZEC holds a structurally scarce advantage in the privacy coin sector. The SEC officially ended its investigation of the Zcash Foundation in January 2026 without taking any enforcement action. Grayscale's ZCSH became the first U.S. privacy coin spot ETF, and 21Shares launched a physically-backed Zcash ETP in Europe. In contrast, the more privacy-focused Monero has yet to gain any ETF market access and has been delisted from most regulated platforms.
The EU AMLR will fully ban regulated platforms from supporting privacy coins by July 2027. ZEC’s selective disclosure mechanism—allowing users to transact transparently or selectively disclose to auditors—gives it compliance compatibility that Monero cannot match under this regulatory framework. The dividing line is not "which is more anonymous" but "which is more compliant."
💻 Clear and Verifiable Technical Roadmap
The NU7 upgrade has entered the testnet phase, with testnet activation expected on October 6, 2026, and mainnet activation targeted for November 5. Core changes include reducing block time from 75 seconds to 25 seconds, introducing a network sustainability mechanism (60% of fees per block reserved), and more than doubling Orchard protocol throughput. The 21 million supply cap and four-year halving cycle remain unchanged.
A quantum security roadmap has also been announced: a full quantum-resistant upgrade is planned within 12 to 18 months. The progress of these upgrades is publicly trackable and quantifiably verifiable, not just conceptual narratives.
🛡️ Shielded Usage Continues to Grow
The fundamental demand for privacy has not reversed despite price fluctuations. The Orchard privacy pool has grown from 1.92 million ZEC to 4.55 million ZEC over the past 12 months, with shielded supply surpassing 4.89 million coins. Approximately 90% of ZEC transactions use anonymity protection. This metric reflects genuine on-chain usage demand rather than speculative holdings.
⚠️ Three Signals Requiring Ongoing Verification
🔓 Orchard Trust Repair: Unfalsifiable Uncertainty
The Orchard vulnerability disclosed in June is the most fundamental trust risk in ZEC’s long-term holding thesis. Theoretically, the flaw allowed "minting tokens out of thin air." The team fixed it with an emergency NU6.2 upgrade and submitted over 2,700 machine-verified theorems proving no invisible forgery will recur. However, it remains unfalsifiable whether undiscovered forged ZEC exist in the Orchard pool. The community-approved $8.39 million retrospective grant and the Ironwood upgrade plan to retire the old pool are attempts to rebuild supply verifiability.
This is the core risk that distinguishes ZEC from other major crypto assets: the credibility of supply underpins all value storage narratives.
🏛️ Governance Structure Rebuild: From Turmoil to Stability?
In January 2026, the entire engineering and product team of the original lead developer ECC resigned due to governance conflicts with the Bootstrap board. The team reorganized as Zcash Open Development Lab (ZODL) and secured $25 million in funding from top VCs including a16z, Paradigm, and Coinbase Ventures. The Zcash Foundation has officially taken over management of core community assets.
Governance is being repaired but true stability will take time. Whether development activity substantially revives is a key indicator of project execution capability.
🌍 Regulatory Divergence: Compliance Advantage Is Not Regulatory Exemption
The end of the SEC investigation reduces compliance costs for institutional allocation, but global regulation is not uniform. Dubai has banned privacy coins, and the EU AMLR 2027 deadline is approaching. ZEC’s selective privacy offers structural compliance advantages but faces ongoing controversy over privacy strength—most Zcash transactions historically use transparent addresses, weakening the anonymity set of shielded address users.
💎 Overall Assessment
ZEC’s long-term holding value depends on how much trust risk you are willing to accept for the "privacy compliance" structural narrative.
Grayscale’s static projection of a 5% BTC market cap share corresponds to about $4,054, based on the assumption of an unchanged BTC market cap, and should be treated cautiously. The current price (around $1,313) has dropped over 22% from its peak, with ETF weekly net outflows reaching $93.56 million. Short-term market sentiment is still digesting profit-taking and trust deficits.
If choosing to hold long-term, the core tracking list should be:
1. Ironwood upgrade progress—whether the old Orchard pool can truly be retired and supply verifiability rebuilt
2. Continued growth of shielded supply—whether the trend from 4.55 million to 4.89 million coins can continue
3. Substantial revival of ZODL development activity—GitHub commit frequency and on-time NU7 mainnet activation
Any negative signals in these three indicators warrant reevaluation of the holding thesis.Yo, surprise brothers! Went out partying all day yesterday, and today I found $ZEC dropped to 1300, I see 1200 this round!
