The day after the rate hike, the US stock market actually saw its best performance in six weeks, and the 10-year US Treasury yield fell back from above 5% to 4.93%.
This reaction is quite interesting. What the market fears may not be the rate hike itself, but rather the central bank watching inflation rebound without daring to act. After the Federal Reserve's 25 basis point hike, investors are instead willing to believe it will control future inflation, giving long-term bonds some relief.
So don't equate a "rate hike" with an immediate drop in all risk assets. Short-term interest rates are directly controlled by the Federal Reserve, but long-term rates trade on expectations of inflation, fiscal policy, and credibility over the next decade. A rate hike that convinces the market can even lower long-term financing costs; a hesitant rate hike may cause continued bond market sell-offs.
The macro environment for BTC is the same. The real danger is not an extra 25 basis points in rates, but the market starting to doubt that anyone can control inflation. Yesterday's rate hike and today's risk asset rebound is not market amnesia, but rather the market temporarily buying into the Federal Reserve's credibility.
#美联储三年来首次加息25个基点 $DOGE project team is really something
------
🛰️ DOGE-1 / IM-3 Launch Status Check (September 18)
Key conclusion: No substantial update on status, but the "9/14" narrative has officially been debunked
Key changes (compared to historical records): As of September 18, DOGE-1 did not launch on September 14 as the countdown claimed. On September 14, SpaceX's official website shows actual launches were SES O3b mPOWER (SLC-40) and USSF-259 (September 16, SLC-4E), with no DOGE-1 / IM-3 listed in the mission manifest. This officially confirms that "9/14" was merely a marketing countdown by the project team (Geometric Energy), not a real T-0.
Official statements comparison
Source level Statement
Intuitive Machines CEO (Q2 earnings call) IM-3 maintains January–March 2027 window, Falcon 9, currently undergoing AIT and engine hot fire tests, October Delta Flight Readiness Review
NASA launch schedule page Still lists "Moon Base: Intuitive Machines IM-3 / 2026", CLPS Provider page states "Expected Launch: 2025-2026"
Professional launch calendars (NextSpaceflight / Orbit Codex) NET 2027 Q1, some estimates up to 2027-03-31
⚠️ No official T-0 or precise window announced: Both NASA and IM only provide quarterly level (NET 2027 Q1), no specific day/hour. NASA page still shows year "2026", inconsistent internally with IM's Q1 2027 statement—this is currently the only "variable" worth monitoring.
💰 DOGE price market reaction (risk warning)
Actual trend after narrative collapse—typical "sell the news" realization:
• Surge around September 14: Driven by "moon landing" countdown, DOGE rose from about $0.073 at end of July to ~$0.091 (up 27% within the month)
• Decline after 9/14: As of September 18, DOGE ≈ $0.081–0.082
◦ 24h +1.6%~3.5% (slight stabilization and rebound)
◦ 7-day −2.2% ~ −5.2%
◦ 30-day still +16.9% (narrative residual), but down about 10% from the September 8 high of $0.091
• Fundamental drags: CleanCore liquidated 463 million DOGE at an average price of ~$0.072 in July; Bitwise DOGE ETF shut down; X Money launched as pure fiat (no crypto integration)
📋 Risk warnings
1. Narrative premium is fading: No official T-0, "no launch on 9/14" is fact, any "imminent launch" hype lacks new information support.
2. DOGE has no fundamental link to the mission—the launch contract paid in DOGE does not change its inflation/supply-demand structure; the "moon landing" is purely emotional catalyst.
3. Watch two key points: IM's October Delta Flight Readiness Review (decides if Q1 can really proceed); if NASA changes the year on its schedule page from "2026" to "2027", that signals official alignment.
------
Difference from previous reports: Earlier reports stayed at the level of "whether 9/14 is credible"; now that 9/14 has passed, the conclusion is upgraded to "9/14 debunked, no launch" as established fact, supplemented with actual price decline data, shifting to a risk warning perspective of "sell the news completed, narrative fading period."
⚠️ Disclaimer: The above is information verification and risk warning, not investment advice. Crypto assets are highly volatile; please make independent judgments. $BTC $ETH $ZEC The Fed's rate hike has landed, is the result really that scary??!!
Some friends asked me to comment, and I want to say that many people only see the "25 basis points" but don't understand what really makes the market fearful.
Let me first explain the logic for those who aren't very familiar.
What the crypto world fears most is not price fluctuations, but lack of liquidity. Where does liquidity come from? Partly from retail investors, whales, and institutions, but the real big pool is in banks. When the Fed moves, the flow of funds worldwide has to follow.
A rate hike directly raises the risk-free rate. If you can get higher interest just by keeping money in the bank, why take the risk to buy non-yielding assets? BTC, ETH, gold—these don't generate cash flow themselves. After a rate hike, funds withdraw from crypto and flow back to banks or interest-bearing assets, naturally creating pressure.
The market had previously priced in a nearly 90% chance of a rate hike, but that only accounted for "this time." After the dot plot was released, the market has to reprice "how many more times will there be." This is the real source of pressure.
Once the expectation of higher rates for longer is confirmed, valuations of risk assets will continue to be suppressed. Last night in the crypto market, BTC and ETH actually turned green after the decision, with gains under 1%. This looks more like a short-term emotional rebound after bad news landing, not a trend reversal. Dollar liquidity will only tighten further, and the rebound's height is destined to be limited.
In short: the rate hike itself isn't scary; what's scary is being told there will be more hikes ahead!
#美联储三年来首次加息25个基点 #美国加密税收与BTC储备法案获推进 $ETH: Buy on pullback
Strategy:
· Wait for the price to pull back to the 2450-2452 range (near MA5) and stabilize before entering long.
· Target first at 2462; if broken, look at the 24-hour high of 2482; set stop loss at 2444 (below MA20).
Core basis:
1. Moving averages in bullish alignment: On the 15-minute chart, MA5, MA10, and MA20 are turning upward (2451.7 > 2447.6 > 2447.0), and the price is holding above all three lines, indicating a short-term bullish trend.
2. Bottom structure formed: After previously dipping to 2426, there was a quick rebound with a long lower wick; recent lows are rising, showing strong bullish support.
3. Resistance and volume: The 2482 level above is the 24-hour high with selling pressure, and the current volume during the rise has not significantly increased, making a direct breakout less likely; better to buy on the pullback.

#美国加密税收与BTC储备法案获推进 A brief analysis of BTC short-term trends based on Dow Theory, Chan Theory, Elliott Wave Theory, volume-price relationship, order flow, and price action (strategy suggestions)
$BTC #星球日报
Short-term strategy suggestions:
Breakout follow-up (preferred, wait for signal): Volume surge (15-minute level volume is more than twice the average of the previous 5 bars) breakout at 76,700, go long short-term, target 77,077 → 77,300, stop loss 76,450; if volume further surges breaking 77,120, add position targeting 77,400 → POC 78,450.
Breakdown follow-up: Volume surge breaking below 76,400, go short short-term, target 75,937 → 75,600, stop loss 76,650; breaking 75,937 add short position targeting 75,000 → 74,931; if 74,931 fails to hold then ④-c confirmed, trend short position targets 73,500-72,400.
High sell low buy (within range, light position): Within the converging range 76,450-76,650, light range trading is possible but strict stop loss (30-40 points) is required, as a breakout can start at any time.
Current status: At 76,562, positioned at the midpoint of the converging triangle, mainly wait and see, strictly prohibit heavy position directional bets in the middle of the range. Holders: exit and wait if breaking below 76,250, consider re-entry if breaking above 77,120. Non-holders: patiently wait for volume breakout signals at the two boundaries 76,400/76,700, this is the cleanest directional choice opportunity recently. $NEAR just touched $3.1, now trading around $3.1074, up 16.3% in the past 24 hours (per HTX data). This isn't a random pump — it reflects a real shift in the project's narrative. NEAR is repositioning itself from a high-performance Layer 1 into the underlying infrastructure for multi-chain transactions and AI agents. The core idea: users won't need to understand blockchain's complex structure anymore — wallets and agents will automatically handle cross-chain operations, swaps, and payments. In oUNI surged 18%.
The social circle is flooded with "SEC new policy benefits," discussing the "tokenized stock narrative taking off."
Few people noticed what happened on-chain.
On July 27, the Uniswap v4 fee switch was officially activated. In less than two months, the daily average protocol revenue soared from $118,000 to $318,000, a 2.7x increase.
More than half of this comes from the same chain—Robinhood Chain single-chain daily contribution is $168,000.
On August 29, tokenized stock daily trading volume on this chain reached $130 million, nearly a 10x increase in one month.
Uniswap captured 99% of the tokenized stock DEX liquidity on this chain—v4 accounts for 73%, v3 for 26%.
Six weeks after mainnet launch, cumulative tokenized stock trading volume exceeded $1 billion.
All of this was achieved without any participation from U.S. traders.
The burn flywheel has already started spinning.
TokenJar is like a transparent money jar that only accepts deposits; protocol fees continuously accumulate inside. No one can withdraw money directly; the only way to open the jar is to burn an equivalent value of UNI.
Arbitrageurs see that the fee value in the jar exceeds the cost of buying UNI to burn, so they automatically buy and burn UNI to unlock fees and earn the spread. The entire process is executed on-chain automatically without manual intervention.
On September 4, 184,000 UNI were burned in a single day, worth $1.15 million. Robinhood Chain contributed over 80%.
In August, 1.946 million UNI were burned. Founder Hayden announced that the annualized UNI burn rate has exceeded $250 million.
Cumulative burns have surpassed 110 million UNI, accounting for more than 11% of the total 1 billion supply.
While other concept coins are still priced by "narrative," UNI can already be priced by "revenue."
Its share rose from 21% to 31%, an increase of nearly 10 percentage points. Monthly protocol revenue went from zero to a stable $7.2 million.
It is not an inflationary governance token. It is an asset supported by real revenue and driven by a deflationary flywheel.
But there are two things you need to know.
First, U.S. users currently cannot participate in tokenized stock trading on Robinhood Chain. This $130 million daily volume has nothing to do with U.S. retail investors.
Second, a significant portion of the trading volume is driven by Meme coins, so sustainability needs to be observed. Robinhood Chain’s gas-free subsidy policy may end in late September; once transaction costs rise, whether activity cools down is the biggest variable going forward.
👀 Soul-searching question:
When real transaction data on a chain is right there, protocol revenue numbers are right there, and the burn flywheel is running every day—
Are you still watching the candlestick charts, or have you started watching the chain?

#dailyorbit #FedSplitGoesPublic #CLARITYVoteDelay #Crypto$ETH
I currently have a hypothesis: the daily red bar might be about to turn green.
Today, the daily opened around 2469. Although the price once dipped to about 2438, it quickly pulled back above 2450.
Why am I starting to pay attention to the red turning green?
Because the support below is still holding, and the 15-minute structure has already shown a clear rebound and recovery. As long as it continues upward and reclaims 2469, the possibility of the daily red turning green will further increase.
Once the red bar truly turns green, market sentiment is very likely to change accordingly.
Right now, I'm watching two levels:
2469: the daily strength/weakness boundary
2483: short-term breakout confirmation
If these two levels are consecutively reclaimed, this wave for Ethereum might not be just a simple rebound.
Of course, this is just a hypothesis, not a conclusion. 9.18 BTC Daytime Strategy
Enter long positions around 760-765, stop loss at 759, target one at 770, target two at 773.
Last night, US stocks rebounded across the board: Nasdaq surged 1.69%, S&P rose 1.14%, Dow increased 0.61%, with chip stocks leading the inflow of funds back into risk assets. This indicates that the hawkish dot plot's negative impact has been fully digested, and the market is no longer fixated on another rate hike this year, instead trading on the dovish factor that rates will not rise again until 2027. BTC also rebounded from the low of 75060 to 76700, holding above 76000 for three consecutive days, showing a clear weakening of bearish momentum.
Price oscillates repeatedly between 75000 and 77000. Although the moving averages still show a bearish alignment, the MACD bearish momentum continues to shrink, and the downward slope is clearly slowing, signaling a potential trend reversal.
Each low is higher than the last: from 75060 to 75500 and then to 76000, which is a classic structure of a rising bottom. After a low-level golden cross on the KDJ, it begins to diverge upwards. The MACD fast and slow lines show signs of a golden cross below the zero line, indicating bullish buildup.
However, being bullish does not mean being greedy. 77000 is a former support turned resistance; the first test will likely fail. If the price pushes to 77100-77300 but cannot rise further, consider entering light long positions with a stop loss above 77500, targeting 76300 to 76000. Today is Friday, and liquidity tends to be poor before the weekend, making spikes more likely. Positions held over the weekend must be light. If the price pushes to 77000 in the afternoon but cannot rise, long positions should be closed; do not hold through the weekend. #美国加密税收与BTC储备法案获推进 $BTC All the bad news is out, but what everyone fears is never the rate hike itself, it's the uncertainty. What’s really worth pondering is that among the leaders of this rebound, there’s no BTC
Last night tech stocks had a wild rally, the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index rose over 3%, but BTC only moved a little. Risk appetite is back, but the money didn’t flow into it. This kind of skipped-over movement looks worse than a direct drop.
Glassnode said something heavy: new demand is missing. On-chain inflows, ETF inflows, stablecoin growth, corporate buying — all four sources of incremental demand have stopped. ETFs had net outflows on 6 of the past 7 trading days, with nearly $300 million redeemed in a single day on Wednesday, IBIT and FBTC redeemed together. The price didn’t crash because no one is selling off, not because someone is buying aggressively.
But legislation is quietly moving forward: the Bitcoin Reserve Act passed the House Financial Services Committee on September 17 and will next go to the full House. A 20-year holding period and a sovereign-level buying framework, if established, would be a long-term variable. It’s useless in the short term, but in the long term, it’s a national-level opponent.
Today is quadruple witching day, with a record scale of options and futures expiring simultaneously, market makers’ rebalancing will amplify volatility. Don’t hold heavy overnight positions today. #美国加密税收与BTC储备法案获推进 The surge in August was too strong, so a pullback in September is not surprising. What really matters is whether long-term holders are offloading in large volumes, whether ETFs will continue to see outflows, and whether the strengthening of the US dollar and US Treasury yields will keep draining risk appetite. The current price has withstood the negative impact of rate hikes, indicating support below, but it’s not yet a trend reversal. Be patient and wait for the structure to become clearer before making a move. $BTC SEC exemption lands, don’t rush to FOMO: first check if your “concept coin” has on-chain revenue
UNI up 18%, ONDO up 7%, BP up 14%, Securitize up 15%, Robinhood up 5%.
Any coin you hold with tags like “tokenization” or “RWA” is rising.
But I have to pour cold water: 90% of tokenization concept coins have nothing to do with this policy.
Not all coins called “tokenized” can benefit from this wave. The SEC’s exemption this time is not a universal red envelope, but a ticket with a threshold.
First, see clearly what exactly the exemption covers.
SEC Chair Atkins made it very clear: this is a temporary exemption for “Tokenized Securities Venue” (TSV), not just any token issuance project.
TSV must meet a bunch of conditions: must be a US entity, comply with OFAC sanctions, have permission-based access, and not use synthetic products. Tokenized stocks must be issued by the issuer or their representative, holders must enjoy dividends and voting rights, and the issuer has a 30-day objection window with veto power.
In other words: SEC only recognizes players who can embed compliance channels, have real securities rights, and issuer approval.
That “decentralized tokenized stock protocol” in your hand—where is the team based? Is it OFAC compliant? Is it permissioned? If you can’t answer, its rise is sentiment, not policy.
Why did UNI really rise? Because the on-chain revenue is there.
On July 27, Uniswap v4’s fee switch officially activated. Protocol daily revenue soared from $118,000 to $318,000, a 270% increase. Just Robinhood Chain alone contributes $168,000 daily, over half of Uniswap’s total network revenue.
On August 29, Uniswap’s tokenized stock daily trading volume on Robinhood Chain reached $130 million, a figure that was negligible a month ago. Cumulative tokenized stock trading volume surpassed $1 billion, with Uniswap controlling about 99% of the tokenized stock DEX liquidity on that chain.
This is real trading fee income. Every tokenized stock swap throws money into Uniswap’s protocol treasury. Once the fee switch is on, this money automatically becomes UNI buy pressure and burn.
Not narrative, but cash flow.
Now look at ONDO. The opposite comparison.
ONDO protocol has revenue. Q1 revenue was $13.26 million, TVL $3.53 billion, holding 60% market share in tokenized equity, managing over $10 billion in tokenized US Treasuries.
Sounds impressive, right?
But the problem is token holders get no money. Analysis directly points out: ONDO protocol generates $15 million to $35 million revenue annually, but token holders get zero. The fee switch vote is still in the “possible” stage, not implemented yet.
SEC exemption came out, ONDO rose 7%. UNI rose 18%.
The market pricing is honest: those with revenue distribution mechanisms get a premium; those with only protocol revenue get sentiment.
A simple judgment standard:
Open DeFiLlama, find the “concept coin” you care about, and check its protocol revenue curve.
If revenue was zero before the policy and still zero after—the rise is narrative, not value.
If it has revenue but token holders get nothing—the rise is the protocol’s story, not yours.
If it has revenue and a mechanism to return revenue to tokens—that’s the real target the SEC exemption can feed.
SEC only filters players who can embed compliance channels. The exemption is a ticket, but not everyone can get it.
$BTC $UNI $ONDO BTC has rebounded, but right now I'm more focused on one question: Is this a reversal, or just a breather in a downtrend?
Yesterday, US tech stocks clearly recovered, the Nasdaq rose, and semiconductors collectively strengthened. BTC is currently back near $76,000.
But we can't just judge the market as reversed based on one rebound.
The next few trading days are critical.
If BTC can continue upward and firmly reclaim the previous resistance zone, market sentiment might truly improve.
Conversely, if the rebound weakens, the previous highs remain unbroken, or it even falls below recent lows again, then be cautious that this is just a pullback.
At this point, I’m actually reluctant to chase.
Because the most likely scenario is: it rises a bit, everyone gets excited and chases longs, then suddenly there’s a quick pullback.
Today I’ll be watching both BTC and US tech stocks closely, especially NVDA, AMD, MU, and SNDK.
If US tech continues to strengthen tonight, it will provide some support for BTC risk appetite; if US stocks spike then fall back while BTC weakens simultaneously, then the quality of this rebound needs to be reassessed.
Before the market really moves, there’s no rush to guess the bottom or the top.
What do you think? Is BTC building a bottom this time, or will it drop again after this rebound?
#美联储三年来首次加息25个基点 #美国加密税收与BTC储备法案获推进 #SEC与CFTC明确链上金融合规路径 $SNDK A brief analysis of BTC short-term trends based on Dow Theory, Chan Theory, Elliott Wave Theory, volume-price relationship, order flow, and price action (strategy suggestions)
$BTC #星球日报
Comprehensive assessment
Dow Theory shows the LH sequence is unbroken but with higher lows, converging and tightening
Chan Theory's central area ②[76,400, 76,700] contracts to 300 points, the breakout phase is imminent
Elliott Wave Theory suggests wave ④-b likely ended at the 50% retracement level
Volume-price relationship shows four consecutive days of declining volume + Delta momentum weakening, forming a bearish divergence prototype
Order flow Delta near zero + HVN standoff, critical balance
Price action shows a shooting star + converging triangle, neutral but cautious.
All six dimensions point to: in the next 24-48 hours, the 76,400-76,700 consolidation zone will break out with volume, determining the direction for the coming week. Structurally, bears have the upper hand (mid-term trend + volume divergence), but bulls hold the HL low point chain; the decisive points are at 76,400 and 76,700. BTC barely moved, but ETH, SOL, and some altcoins have already taken the lead in strengthening. On the surface, risk appetite is picking up; But looking at ETFs, stablecoins, and total market cap, this is more like capital rotation rather than the whole market returning to offensive mode. 📊 BTC consolidates, SOL climbs back above $100 As of 09:43 HKT: BTC $76,580, 24h +0.06% ETH $2,453.33, +0.87% SOL $101.94, +2.81% BTC market share 58.08%. The Fear and Greed Index rose from 50 yesterday to 56, re-entering the "greed" zone. Polarization within mainstream coins is becoming more pronounced. Among the top 30 by market capitalization, NEAR rose about 24.2% in the past 24 hours, becoming one of the strongest performing assets; RAIN fell about 1.7%, and among traditional large-cap coins, XLM performed relatively weakly. But there is a noteworthy signal here: the total crypto market cap still fell by about 1.78% in 24 hours. BTC was trading sideways, ETH and SOL rose, some altcoins surged, but total market cap did not strengthen in tandem. Therefore, at this stage, it is more appropriate to define it as: partial capital rotation rather than a full return to risk appetite. 💰 ETF pressure has clearly eased, but capital inflows cannot yet be announced. ETF data disclosed on the US trading day on September 17: BTC spot ETF temporarily has a net outflow of $24.2 million, ETH spot ETF temporarily has a net inflow of $3.6 millionICYMI: Listed companies added just 5.9K #BTC over three months, versus 89K in July 2025 alone.
With spot just below their $80.5K average cost basis, corporate buyers face modest unrealized losses while providing little fresh demand.🔥 Capital is starting to flow back, but the price hasn't fully responded yet
After several consecutive days of capital outflow, the market showed some changes on September 17.
🟠 $BTC ETF net outflow significantly narrowed to about $31.8M
🔵 $ETH ETF turned to a net inflow of about +$8.7M
But the price side remains cautious:
$BTC is oscillating around $77.3K, $ETH around $2.48K, and neither has fully reclaimed the short-term trend resistance.
This indicates an important change:
💰 Capital pressure is easing
📈 But the price has yet to give a clear confirmation
If ETF inflows continue to improve and BTC can firmly hold above $78K, and ETH recovers $2.50K, the market may then see clearer signals of capital rotation.
Conversely, if capital inflow cannot push the price past key resistance, this may only be a weakening of selling pressure rather than the start of a new trend.
👀 What really matters now is not "whether the money has returned," but whether this capital can truly push the price upward.
#DailyOrbit #BTCETF #ETHETF #CryptoFlows #BTC #ETH Brothers, the day after the interest rate hike landed, the market entered a typical "volume contraction recovery period." BTC is holding above 76000, ETH is consolidating around 2455, and the strongest is still ZEC, which surged to 1518 before starting to consolidate at a high level.
Yesterday, I almost shorted ZEC near 1360, but there was a voice in my head telling me, don't short! Don't short! Otherwise, I would have also held a short position.
$BTC current price 76660, slightly down 0.11%. On the 4-hour chart, after bottoming at 75000, it rebounded with difficulty, barely standing above MA20, but the resistance at 78000 above is still strong. RSI6 is neutral at 58.47, MACD shows a bullish crossover below zero, momentum is weak. In the short term, it will likely oscillate between 76000-77500, waiting for sentiment to digest.
$ETH current price 2455, down 0.57%. Narrow oscillation around MA5 and MA10, with 2482 as short-term strong resistance. MACD green bars are shortening, bearish momentum weakening, but bulls have not yet gained strength. Key support is at 2360; if it holds, the consolidation pattern remains.
$ZEC current price 1470, slightly down 0.66%. It surged wildly from 1085 to 1518, with the 4-hour RSI peaking at 81.6, now retreating to high-level consolidation. If you haven't entered yet, wait for a pullback to the 1350-1400 range before considering.
Summary: After the macro negative news landed, the market did not crash, indicating there is support at the bottom. But volume contraction means big money is watching; do not chase highs or sell lows in the short term. For independent speculative coins like ZEC, avoid heavy positions at high levels. Let's talk about $OKB. My current mindset is simple—I hold, but I don't add 🧘
For OKB at this position, I have 200 spot coins in hand and some contracts as well. Not too many, not too few, I'm holding comfortably.
But if you ask me whether I will continue to add positions now, my answer is straightforward: no desire.
It's not that I don't see potential, it's just that the price isn't cheap enough yet. Above 100, I won't make a move. If it can drop to the 90-100 range and then pull back, I will add a position much larger than what I have now.
Even if this process drags on longer—like sideways movement, dipping, then pulling back, going back and forth for two months—I would be happier. Why? Because this kind of grinding can wash out short-term traders and weak hands, so when it really rallies, the selling pressure will be much less.
The fundamentals of OKB don't need to be repeated: total supply locked at 21 million, X Layer's Gas demand, Exchange OS staking threshold. These things haven't changed; what has changed is the price.
What I'm doing now is waiting. Waiting for a better price, or waiting for it to prove over time that it deserves a higher position.
No rush. Anyway, I don't chase. 🚬$OKB #美联储三年来首次加息25个基点 It's Friday again, and the market these past two days has been as flat as a weekend with no significant fluctuations.
After watching the rally for two days, yesterday only lightly tested 771 before quickly falling back. Currently, there is a low-level golden cross on the four-hour chart, and the price has stabilized above the middle Bollinger Band. In the short term, a corrective rebound is underway, but the larger bearish structure has not been completely reversed. It is still in a consolidation and repair phase. The lower Bollinger Band has moved up, and the lower band opening is pointing upwards. It is recommended to buy on dips today.
For BTC: buy near 761-763, watch 778 $BTC $ETH #美联储三年来首次加息25个基点 $BARD $BARD /USDT This order book is quite interesting, there's fierce capital fighting around 0.1239, orders are placed and withdrawn quickly, typical tug-of-war before a pump-and-dump by a manipulative trader. Purely looking at the candlesticks, the short-term structure hasn't broken down, if the volume keeps up, it's worth keeping an eye on. Not a trade call, this kind of pure capital game can flip faster than a page, don't get too attached to your position, make sure to set stop-losses. Do you think this move is a fake breakout or a real start? Anyone in the same boat?
👇👇👇The fact that two negative factors have been triggered and the price still rises tenaciously is more worth watching than the actual gains.
After the announcement was made, the rate hike was implemented, and the price didn't crash, it means the selling pressure had already been digested beforehand. This is something that has already happened.
But "no negative news" does not mean "only good news." From the project side's perspective, what is lacking now is a reason for new capital to enter the market, not a lack of stories.
I agree with the counterfeit part. A candlestick inserting a liquidated position isn't risky, but because liquidity is thin and the cost of inserting pins is too low.
Whether to take mainstream long positions is a personal choice. What I focus on is: when the next rally occurs, can the trading volume keep up?
#美联储三年来首次加息25个基点 $ZEC Looking at the four-hour chart, after Bitcoin dipped around 75000, it did not continue to drop further. It then rebounded to around 77150, where it encountered resistance, but the pullback was not very strong. The support at the lower levels is still quite evident. Currently, the market is in a sideways consolidation after the rebound, which may seem tedious in the short term, but the structure has not weakened again; instead, the lows are gradually rising. This looks more like a buildup for the next upward move. Most likely, the price will continue to oscillate around 76300-76600 for a while. As long as this support zone is not repeatedly broken, there will be attempts to test above 77000 later. Looking at the hourly chart, it is even clearer: after a wick down to 75975, the price quickly recovered, and the following candles mostly oscillated between 76400-76600, indicating that the bears' downward pressure is not persistent. It is unnecessary to chase longs now; wait for a more comfortable pullback entry, first watching near the previous highs. Only if the resistance at 77100 is truly broken will the space above open up further.
Bitcoin long positions at 76300-76600, first target 77100, then 77800.
Ethereum long positions at 2440-2455, first target 2485, then 2520. $BTC $ETH #美联储三年来首次加息25个基点 Active Buy-Sell Radar
$SOL price and active transactions show a relatively strong combination: the current 15-minute candlestick rose by 0.22%; in three sets of 5-minute statistics, sellers account for 24.6%, buyers 75.4%, with active buy volume about 3.07 times that of active sell volume; active buy amount exceeds active sell amount by $13.49M.
$ETH buy dominance has not yet been accompanied by a significant net price increase: the current 15-minute candlestick fell by 0.02%; in three sets of 5-minute statistics, sellers account for 34.9%, buyers 65.1%, with active buy volume about 1.86 times that of active sell volume; active buy amount exceeds active sell amount by $9.93M. The buy bias signal mainly comes from transaction distribution, while net price change has not shown a clear rise or fall.
$NEAR buyers dominate active transactions, and the price recorded an increase: the current 15-minute candlestick rose by 0.19%; in three sets of 5-minute statistics, sellers account for 38.5%, buyers 61.5%, with active buy volume about 1.59 times that of active sell volume; active buy amount exceeds active sell amount by $999,200.
SOL, NEAR: price increases and buy dominance mutually confirm each other, currently showing relatively strong performance. $UNI surges 14%! The DEX leader initiates value capture—will the RWA wave reprice Uniswap?
OKX market data shows UNI strongly rising to $7.841, up 14.28% in 24H.
Currently, capital is regrouping around DeFi and RWA narratives, with the core catalyst being the SEC's approval of tokenized stock innovation exemptions, bridging on-chain trading with traditional securities markets.
Uniswap's fundamentals have changed.
Since Fee Switch activation, the protocol's monthly revenue has stabilized at about $7.2 million, and DEX market share has increased from 21% to 31%.
Simultaneously, integration with Robinhood channels makes it Circle $ARC's preferred DEX, while v4, UniswapX, and stablecoin liquidity ecosystems continue to expand.
The market is repricing UNI's value capture ability.
The DEX leader, which previously relied solely on governance premium, is shifting toward real cash flow and on-chain financial infrastructure.
Tokenized stocks, RWA, and AI Agent trading gateways may all become new incremental trading sources.
However, short-term speculation has already heated up.
After the 14% surge, chasing funds and early holders are starting to exchange positions; the v4 Hooks security controversy remains unresolved. If trading volume and revenue cannot continue to grow, profit-taking pressure may reemerge.
Technically, watch the $7.5 support level, with resistance around $8–$8.5.
RWA opens up imagination space, but the market always trades expectations ahead of time.🎯 Invalidation vs. Stop Loss
An arbitrarily set Stop Loss percentage is like giving your liquidity away to institutions.
📌 Key points:
• Stop Loss: The technical execution of your exit order.
• Invalidation: The exact level where the structure hypothesis (SMC) ceases to be valid
📐 The rule: Place your SL right where the structure shows the bias has changed (above the Order Block or Sweep). If it doesn't break the invalidation level, the idea is still alive
💬 Do you set your SL by %? Regarding this wave of ZEC, rather than how much it has risen again, I am more concerned about new wallets moving coins out of exchanges during the rise. Lookonchain has monitored several addresses that have collectively withdrawn about $46 million worth of ZEC in the past two days. Compared to who shouted another sky-high target, this kind of movement deserves a closer look 🐋
I tend to view this positively, but the second half is still missing: after the coins are withdrawn, are they left idle or quickly transferred back? When the price pulls back, is there anyone continuing to buy? If withdrawals continue and the dip is supported by buyers, I am more willing to believe this rally still has momentum.
Of course, withdrawing $46 million doesn’t mean $46 million was newly bought in these two days; it could be coins bought earlier that are only now being moved. We can’t just assume they’re moving wallets and write the script for them as "insiders preparing to pump."
Having been through turmoil with ZEC before, seeing this kind of news is indeed refreshing 😅 But this time I want to trade well, not just hope to break even when it falls, and then suddenly feel the original take-profit plan no longer suits me after it rises again.Chainalysis recently named a type of attack communication method Blockchain Dead Drops: attackers write malware commands or configurations into public chain transactions, OP_RETURN fields, or smart contracts, and infected devices then read from the chain. This way, malware does not have to rely on a centralized server that can be easily shut down. This is not "blockchain executing a virus." More accurately, the blockchain is used as a persistent coordination layer: domains are seized, hosts are taken offline, code repositories are deleted, but the data on the chain still exists. Chainalysis states that such write activities have increased by about 420% in the past 12 months. The research has tracked five major blockchains and more than a dozen malware families, noting that state-level actors related to North Korea and Iran hold significant positions in the samples. The 420% refers to the increase in write activity in the study, not to theft losses or the number of victims. For wallet users, the security boundary must therefore be pushed forward. The first layer is the software source: when downloading wallets, browser extensions, or update packages, verify the official release channels and signatures; do not run them just because the link comes from a verified account. The second layer is endpoint permissions: a wallet process should not have file, browser, or system permissions unrelated to its signature. The third layer is the transaction itself: verify the recipient address, network, token permissions, and the final signing entity. The wallet interface can only interpret the transactions it sees; it cannot judge whether the installation package on the endpoint has been tampered with, nor can it guarantee the data on the chain.Don't rush to interpret "ETH ETF large single-day redemption" as "institutions have completely exited."
Arkham update on September 17: Over the past approximately 20 days, BlackRock has cumulatively increased its Ethereum holdings via ETHA and ETHB by over $1.57 billion (about $1.27 billion in ETHA and about $296.5 million in ETHB). ETHB has had almost no single-day net redemptions in the past three weeks; totaling about 3.56 million ETH, valued at approximately $8.69 billion. In contrast, on September 16, the US spot ETH ETF had a single-day net redemption of about $224 million (about $110 million in ETHA), while the spot ETH price still rose about 1.54% that day.
So it turns out: single-day redemptions are just short-term rebalancing, not equivalent to institutional channels closing; cumulative 20-day data also does not mean short-term flows have reversed. It's better to separately examine single-day net flows and multi-week holdings, as well as whether redemptions have been absorbed by other buyers.
You can cross-verify by checking the ETHUSDT perpetual order book and funding rates on OKX. DYOR, this does not constitute investment advice.$BTC
BTC has dropped 32% in one year, so why are the bears hesitant to push hard at the 78,000 level?
A counterintuitive phenomenon: BTC fell from 126,000 to 78,000 (-32%) in one year,
but recently in the 76,000–79,000 range, it neither falls further nor breaks upward.
Current price $78,268｜24h +2.21%｜Market cap $1.57T
What this means:
· Long-term holders are genuinely supporting above 70,000, not just talking;
· But the 80,000–90,000 range above is a previous dense trading zone with heavy trapped positions.
So now it’s a squeeze market of "buyers stepping in when it falls, sellers offloading when it rises."
One meaningful point for you: in this kind of market, the biggest risk is to heavily bet on direction in the middle range.
I’m focusing on one key thing: whether it can break and hold above 80,000 with volume. Holding or not holding means two different scenarios.
$BTC
Not investment advice 500U Challenge to 1 Million (Day 6)
Initial Capital: 500U
Current Net Value: 504.4U
Profit/Loss: 4.4U (Total) / 50U (Yesterday)
Profit Rate: 0.88% (Total) / 11% (Yesterday)
-----------------------------------
Personally, I judged that BTC would fluctuate between 76000~77000 yesterday. After holding the basic long position unchanged, I kept T-positioning BTC and SOL yesterday, earning 50U with an 11% profit. Finally, I made it back above the principal. Looking at the historical closing records, you can see how tough it was. Fortunately, the timing was well controlled, and on top of breaking even, I still have a cup of milk tea left.
Today I have controlled the position; currently, the total position is 4x leverage. I'd rather be slower than have a big account drawdown. The scary part of a big drawdown is not the capital loss itself but the easily triggered restless mindset, which can lead to a series of irrational operations and eventually drifting further away!
The above is my personal trading experience record and does not constitute investment advice! $BTC $ETH $SOL #美联储三年来首次加息25个基点 Brothers, combining today's market and news, let me share my views.
BTC and ETH are currently in a correction phase, but I judge that the most likely scenario is a strong consolidation; the possibility of a direct one-sided surge is low.
Yesterday, the 25bp rate hike was implemented, but the market did not follow through with a sell-off. BTC held steady at 76,000, and ETH rebounded to around 2,450. Many negative factors have actually been priced in in advance. Today, with U.S. Treasury yields and oil prices falling back, and U.S. stock risk appetite warming up, this has also provided some support to the crypto market.
However, the Fed's hawkish stance remains unchanged, and there are still expectations of further rate hikes. ETF funds have recently been flowing out, so this rebound cannot be directly judged as a trend reversal.
Key levels to watch on the chart: BTC support at 75,000, resistance zone at 77,000–78,000; ETH support at 2,400, resistance at 2,500. If support holds, the correction rally can continue; if the rally lacks sufficient buying power, be cautious of prices falling back again. $BTC #美联储三年来首次加息25个基点 #美国加密税收与BTC储备法案获推进 Bitcoin has been hovering roughly around 76,000 these past two days. Around the US market open, it fluctuated near 76,500, with resistance repeatedly hitting around 77,300, and support still present between 75,000 and 75,801. Overall, it looks more like a range-bound market rather than a one-sided trend.
What’s more worth watching in the Asian session today is the Bank of Japan: the two-day policy meeting wraps up on Friday, with the market generally expecting a 25 basis point hike, bringing the policy rate to about 1.25%. Before the statement and the governor’s press conference are released, the yen and risk appetite might jitter first, and there’s a good chance Bitcoin will follow the sentiment.
Personally, I’m more on the sidelines for now. Only if it holds above 75,000 and breaks through and stabilizes above 77,300 does it look like there’s room for further gains; if it falls below around 75,200, then the 74,000 to 74,500 range will come back into view. With the weekend approaching, liquidity will thin out, so don’t mistake noise for a trend.
Wait for the central bank’s announcement before deciding the direction; that way, you won’t lose out.[Morning Watch] SEC Throws Out 5-Year "Innovation Exemption": Conditional Opening for Tokenized US Stocks
Fact: A few days after CLARITY failed to pass the Senate, the SEC grants a conditional exemption of up to 5 years for tokenized securities trading venues that meet the criteria; they must retain equal rights such as dividends/voting, issuers can veto listings, and synthetic tokens are prohibited.
Judgment: This is an administrative patch, not legislative approval. The positive narrative is 24/7 trading and settlement efficiency; the controversy lies in issuer veto and access permissions. BTC may not have a direct short-term path; first watch who actually launches products with equal rights.
Vote: Administrative patch / Don't overestimate with a leash / First see the initial implementations#BTC #ETH
AI is not just supporting the market; it is also giving the Federal Reserve room to continue raising interest rates.
These two things are connected.
Strong growth → sticky inflation → interest rates remain high → deeper reliance on AI stocks.
Once this chain breaks, the adjustment will not be mild.
I don't guess when it will break, but I will keep some cash ready for those forced selling moments. $HBAR is slightly bearish in the short term; rebounds are shorting opportunities, but only within the range without chasing. Conclusion upfront: funding rate turned positive, MACD bearish, moving averages suppressing, bulls are on the defensive in the battle.
Detailed analysis: Funding rate +0.0100%, bulls pay to maintain positions, indicating the bulls are still holding firm. If the price fails to break upward, these positions become potential liquidation fuel, with spike risk biased downward. Moving average structure MA5=0.074824 has crossed below MA20=0.074937, short-term moving average suppression limits rebound strength. MACD histogram is -5.388e-05, bearish momentum has not yet converged, combined with RSI=52.9 neutral to slightly weak reading, bulls lack momentum to break upward. Bollinger Bands [0.0735779, 0.0762961] have about 3.7% distance between upper and lower bands; 30 K-line amplitude is 5.37%, indicating volatility remains, spike room is sufficient, chasing longs risks being stopped out both ways. Fear and Greed Index at 56 is in the greed zone, retail sentiment is warm while technicals are bearish; this divergence often signals distribution by capital.$ETH Today's most unusual detail is not about itself—only +0.64% in 24h, ranking last among the three candidates, but the funding rate reports +0.0042%, making it the only one among the three with "low volatility and positive premium." In the same sector, $SYN is up +9.89%, $APT +9.46%, both having pulled double-digit gains, while ETH keeps its amplitude suppressed at 3.88%, with the price stuck in a narrow gap of less than $3 between MA5=2448.65 and MA20=2451.72. This "sector hot, leader quiet" structure usually indicates a buildup phase where funds spill over to highly elastic small-cap assets, rather than weakness.
From a technical perspective, RSI=57.0 is in a neutral-to-bullish zone, not overheated; MACD histogram -1.998 is bearish but with limited convergence, Bollinger Bands [2432.21, 2471.24] have a width of only about 1.6%, indicating typical compression. The Fear & Greed Index at 56 is in the greed zone, and sentiment does not support a deep drop. In terms of relative strength, $APT RSI is already 83.4, severely overbought, $SYN amplitude is 47.69%, typical of speculative trading, while ETH is the only one among the three with a reasonable risk-reward ratio as a catch-up target.
The outlook is bullish. $ZEC's rally really makes people exclaim "Wow." The current price is 1,452, down slightly by 1.95% in 24 hours, but look, it hit a high of 1,513.13 yesterday. Looking over a longer period, the 180-day increase is an astonishing +560.30%, definitely the hottest performer this year.
Switching to the 4-hour chart, the MA5, MA10, and MA20 moving averages form a textbook-perfect bullish alignment, with the price pushing strongly along the upper Bollinger Band, impressively strong. On the news front, there's big movement: Zcash mining company Fortitude plans to list on Nasdaq with a valuation of at least $400 million, and this regulatory compliance boost is fueling sentiment further.
However, the more a coin surges like this, the more you need to stay half-alert. It dropped from the high of 1,513 yesterday and has now fallen below MA5 (1,451), showing a clear weakening of short-term upward momentum. The first support is at MA10 (1,388), and further down, MA20 (1,268) is the real lifeline. It has risen too much already, and profit-taking could happen anytime, so the risk of short-term spikes is very high.
Is this a deep squat washout by the main force or just a phase of rising then falling? Brothers holding positions, remember to take profits in batches and never pyramid your positions. Those who haven't entered yet, don't rush to FOMO chase the highs; wait for a pullback to confirm support before considering.

#长端美债5%会成新常态吗？ SEC Roundtable Recap: 18 out of 27 firms already have crypto business
Yesterday's SEC 24-hour trading roundtable (10am-4pm) kicked off with Chairman Atkins calling it a "day and night" new market. The three panels covered readiness, system resilience, and next steps.
Key detail: Among the 27 traditional financial firms attending, 18 have direct crypto/blockchain backgrounds. This isn't Wall Street debating whether to go on-chain; they're already on-chain.
Moves are fast: Nasdaq aims to launch nearly 23-hour trading by 12/6; 24X has already received SEC approval for 23-hour trading 5 days a week; they also mentioned a transfer agent rule allowing blockchain as the official stock record (60-day comment period).
Oh, and CoinDesk's parent company Bullish just spent $4.2B to acquire transfer agent Equiniti—these folks are positioning early for the "stocks on-chain" pipeline.

#SEC与CFTC明确链上金融合规路径 The UK did not raise interest rates this time, but 3 members voted for a rate hike, so inflation is still unsettled.
Morning briefing for September 18, picking a few useful points
1｜Bank of England keeps rates steady, internal divisions remain
Last night, the rate was maintained at 3.75% by a 6 to 3 vote, with 3 others supporting a 25 basis point hike. This is not new easing for the crypto space, so don’t take “no rate hike” directly as a positive.
2｜Today it's the Bank of Japan's turn
The market expects a rate hike to 1.25%, but the result has not been announced yet. At 14:30, Kazuo Ueda will hold a press conference; if he hints at faster subsequent hikes, a stronger yen could add pressure to risk assets.
3｜Deutsche Bank prepares to custody institutional crypto
On the 16th, Deutsche Bank announced plans to launch digital asset custody for European institutions within the year, including Bitcoin and Ethereum, pending regulatory approval. This improves conditions for institutional entry but does not mean Deutsche Bank has bought crypto yet.

#长端美债5%会成新常态吗？
The same 5% yield, the Fed Chair says the reason is very healthy, but long-term bond buyers are demanding higher compensation.
As of 09:08 on September 18, the 10-year US Treasury yield briefly dropped to about 4.95% before returning near 5%, the 2-year rose to about 4.73%, and the 30-year remained above 5%. Walsh attributes this round of long-end rise to a strong economy, AI capital expenditure crowding out funds, and geopolitics, but did not mention fiscal deficits and debt sustainability; the community also notes that JPMorgan Asset Management has started buying long-term government bonds from the US, Japan, and Australia.
My view is cautious: if only looking at inflation, 5% may be a temporary peak; but as long as the fiscal supply leg remains unchanged, the long end will hardly truly ease, and the risk-free rate threshold will keep pressuring high beta assets. The falsifiable position is the 10-year: if it falls back below 4.95% and holds, I turn bullish; if it stays above 5%, I remain bearish.
Which side are you on: is 5% a temporary peak or a new normal?
The above is only a personal opinion and does not constitute investment advice. $BTC Comprehensive Evaluation and Future Outlook of UNI
Competitive Advantage: Uniswap has successfully established the value chain of "new chain traffic attraction $\rightarrow$ mechanism sedimentation $\rightarrow$ token burn." The flexibility of v4 provides higher defensive barriers and stronger customization and expansion capabilities when facing competitors such as PancakeSwap and Aerodrome.
Key Challenges:
Traffic Sustainability: Whether new chains like Arc can convert "one-day tour" traffic into long-term sedimented liquidity pools depends on the ecological construction of the new chain itself.
Security Governance Costs: While the Hook mechanism grants decentralization a high degree of freedom, it also raises the technical threshold for preventing malicious breaches of contract. If security issues are not effectively contained, it may weaken the willingness of application layers and aggregators to integrate with v4.
Conclusion: Uniswap's current strong performance stems from its exclusive advantage in new chain competition and the product strength brought by the v4 architecture. The core of future development lies in how to maintain the high innovation of the Hook mechanism while balancing system risks through API and frontend security controls. Issuing tax bills for crypto on one hand, while locking BTC into the national treasury on the other
#美国加密税收与BTC储备法案获推进
This increasingly looks like two hands working hard simultaneously.
As of 09:08 on September 18, two committees of the U.S. House of Representatives advanced crypto-specific legislation on September 16: The Ways and Means Committee passed the Digital Asset Tax Certainty Act with 38 votes in favor and 5 against; the Financial Services Committee advanced the U.S. Reserve Modernization Act with 28 votes in favor and 21 against, proposing to enshrine strategic Bitcoin reserves into federal law, with the government holding qualified $BTC in principle for at least 20 years. Previously, the CLARITY Market Structure Act was stuck at the Senate’s 60-vote threshold.
The two sides of the same matter are here: Taxation sounds like bad news, but it actually grants crypto assets a tax identity; locking up sounds like good news, but the locked coins are confiscated ones, not scooped up from the secondary market. Simply put, one hand hands over the tax bill, the other locks the coins into the treasury; the former is an entry permit, the latter means one less official seller.
Don’t rush to call it a big positive yet. Both bills have only passed committee; there is still full House and Senate review ahead, so the process is long; the community also reminds that after the positive news lands, sentiment usually cools down.
In the short term, watch the procedural rhythm; in the long term, see if multi-track legislation can form a complete framework. The day it truly lands will carry more weight than any surge in sentiment.
The above is personal opinion only and does not constitute investment advice.
$BTC The dot plot indicates one more hike, while the bond market is pricing in three hikes
#美联储三年来首次加息25个基点
The debate on the planet is no longer about whether to raise rates, but "how many more times".
As of 09:08 on September 18, the Federal Reserve raised rates by 25 basis points, lifting the rate to 3.75%-4.00%, the first hike since July 2023, after five consecutive meetings of no change. Among 18 participants, 16 expect at least one more hike by the end of the year, with the median rate pointing to 4.10%; meanwhile, the community relays Morgan Stanley's view that the bond market is still pricing in about three additional hikes. The 10-year US Treasury yield has already surpassed 5%, and $BTC is fluctuating narrowly around 76400.
My short-term view is bearish: the dot plot shows one hike, the bond market bets on three, and this gap represents the pricing space for the coming months. Volatility has been compressed to a near one-month low, indicating both bulls and bears are waiting for the next data. The falsifiable points are clear: a decisive break below 75500 confirms my bearish stance; reclaiming 77000 and breaking through 79500-81000 means I was wrong and will turn bullish.
Which side are you on: the dot plot's one hike or the bond market's three?
The above is my personal opinion and does not constitute investment advice.
$BTC NEAR: The "Invisible Winner" of Modular Narratives, Quietly Repricing
A single-day increase of 7.54% pushed NEAR from $2.26 to $2.48. This is not an ordinary rebound—it's a delayed market pricing of the "chain abstraction" narrative.
A market cap of $3.25 billion supports a daily trading volume of $17.99 million, with a turnover rate of 5.5%, which is within a healthy range. The price completed an upward breakout in the $2.26-$2.65 range, with a pullback near $2.40 forming support. Technically, an ascending structure of "higher highs and higher lows" has been established. The key is whether volume can increase to break through the previous high of $2.65, opening the way to the psychological $3.00 level.
While the market is still chasing explicit narratives like AI Meme, RWA, and DePIN, NEAR is quietly completing the trinity infrastructure of "account abstraction + chain abstraction + data availability" at the base layer.
Smart money still shows net short and zero net positions, but this looks more like hedge funds' standardized risk control operations for "high beta, low liquidity" assets rather than directional bets.
Core judgment: NEAR is currently in an arbitrage window of "fundamentals exceeding expectations" and "market recognition lagging." A breakthrough at $2.65 will establish a mid-term uptrend, targeting a valuation center between $3.20 and $3.50; a pullback that does not break $2.30 signals the completion of the bull trap cleanup.ZEC hits a new high again, NU7 voting implemented
ZEC once surged past $1400 last night, rising over 23% in 24 hours, up 25 times in a year, with a market cap reaching $23 billion, breaking into the top ten.
The direct catalyst is the NU7 upgrade vote. About 2.4 million ZEC participated, with a 66% turnout; 99.9% support cutting block time from 75 seconds to 25 seconds, and 98.9% support retaining the Bitcoin-style halving mechanism. Governance consensus is nearly perfect, with the market voting with real money.
Grayscale ZCSH ETF has been online for two weeks, assets exceeding $500 million, holding over 550,000 ZEC, about 3% of circulating supply. Paradigm also publicly supports, positioning Zcash as a “privacy complement to Bitcoin.”
But short-term risks have also emerged: net inflow to exchanges turned positive, RSI over 70, bearish divergence near 1300, with $800 as the first support. Lao Mo’s advice is simple—don’t chase the highs. Light positions can be tried on a pullback to 1100-1150 with stop loss below 1000; those without positions should wait for a correction, don’t catch a falling knife at 1400.
BTC current price is 76,732, with strong resistance at 77,000-77,500 and short-term support at 75,800. ETH is around 2,420, moving in tandem.
Did you catch this ZEC wave? Let’s chat in the comments. If you think Lao Mo’s advice makes sense, like and follow; I’ll alert you at key points. $BTC $ETH $ZEC #ZEC刷新历史新高，NU7升级预期受关注 9/18 Crypto Daily Report
Saudi Arabia's move this time is quite clear

#MiddleEastSituation #USIranRelations #Oil Crypto is about to change drastically! After the rate hike crash, two major bills hit suddenly— is there still a way out?
Many only see the Fed's rate hike causing the crash, but they don't notice that regulations and systems are quietly delivering the final blows and also quietly paving the way.
First, look at the Bitcoin Reserve Act (ARMA). The House Financial Services Committee passed it decisively by 28 to 21. Bitcoins seized by the federal government will be placed into a strategic reserve managed by the Treasury Department, locked for at least 20 years, and cannot be casually auctioned, exchanged, or used as collateral. What does this mean? It means one less official big seller dumping on the market in the long term.
Next, look at the new tax regulations—this is the real headline. The Ways and Means Committee advanced the new rules by 38 to 5. Previously, you could immediately buy back losses to offset taxes; stocks have long disallowed this loophole, but crypto has been exploiting it—now that path is blocked. However, there's a bright spot: on-chain fees under ten dollars no longer count as a taxable transaction. But heavy users with over 5,000 transfers a year cannot enjoy this tax exemption. $ZEC
#美国加密税收与BTC储备法案获推进
Although both bills have only passed committee so far, and are still far from full House, Senate, and presidential approval, if these two lines continue forward, the US approach to crypto will no longer be executive orders or temporary guidelines but will start to be codified into law.

Back to my own trading: I just took profits on ZEC yesterday (+170%), LTC has recovered to breakeven, and I’m still holding TRX underwater at -45U, fighting hard with a margin rate of 2.13%.
The more chaotic the market, the more important it is to see the big picture.
Brothers, what do you think? 昨天的清单上写着：看持仓量和费率。昨晚九点刚过，它们就动了。 142.51 → 156.90，一夜 +10.2%。颈线 152.99、上轨 154.11、前高 154.78，一次全破。现在 154.58，站在 1 小时中轨 154.26 上。 但我先泼盆冷水：这波涨，多头账户没进来一个新人。 看一笔账——价格涨了，持仓量反而从 34.4 万掉到 33.7 万。开新仓会推高持仓量，持仓量掉着涨，说明是空头在平仓，把价格抬上去的。多空比 1.78 → 1.74、费率昨天早间转负，都指向同一件事。 回补型反弹的特点：快、猛、脆。没有第二波，除非新多进场。 新多进没进场，只看两盏灯： 1、持仓量回升 2、费率转正 两盏都亮，才有第二段，量度目标 163.5（算式：152.99 − 142.51 = 10.48，加在突破位上，推算值）。只亮一盏，当震荡做。 操作上我只守一条线：152.75–152.99。守住，剧本继续；收在 152 下方，回补结束，下一站看 148.12。142.51 是整个双底故事的失效位，破了就不聊反弹了。 两个提醒：星舰试飞是"利好兑现"，飞了未必涨；马斯克的合并传闻纯属
