🌃 Friday Night Session: The market surged 3%, yet these three coins surprisingly fell against the trend
#BTC、ETH spot ETFs simultaneously saw outflows, cooling down capital heat
$HYPE 90.848, up 3.92%, finally back above 90. After the non-farm payroll surprise, the market bounced, and HYPE followed, bouncing back to 90. The foundation of 97% protocol revenue buybacks remains; it lingered around 87 for a week and has now finally risen. Holding above 90 targets 95; a drop back to 88 indicates this rally was just a follow-the-trend move.
$ENA 0.24654, down 1.19%, falling against the market's 3% rise. It rose over 7% a couple of days ago, called a golden pit, but has now fully retraced. The yield logic hasn't changed, but capital is moving from altcoins to mainstream; small coins like ENA are sold off first. If it breaks below 0.25, look down to 0.23; don't rush to bottom-fish.
$BEAT 0.09091, down 1.26%, green market but it’s red. A microcap altcoin with a market cap of just over 20 million; this counter-trend drop indicates funds are exiting. Don't mistake the drop for a bottom; one day up, three days down is normal. Keep only a very small position and just watch.
#美国9月非农仅增2.9万，失业率升至4.2% Three at night session: HYPE back above 90, ENA falling against the trend—don't bottom-fish, BEAT—stay away. After non-farm payrolls, funds all moved to mainstream, small coins were sold off.Silver has fallen below $60, to 59.9.
Honestly, this has little to do with the crypto world, but it's worth a glance.
Silver, a traditional safe-haven asset, dropped 1.75% intraday, breaking a key round number.
What does this indicate?
It shows that the market isn’t as keen on the word "safe haven" right now.
Money is choosing where to stay, not just running around randomly.
Some panic at this, thinking risk assets will collapse too.
I think there’s no need to rush to conclusions.
Silver falling doesn’t necessarily drag down $BTC; the two pools of liquidity aren’t connected by a single pipe.
What really matters is whether this is profit-taking or genuine withdrawal.
A 1.75% drop in one day doesn’t say much; a three-day consecutive drop would be a signal.
What we should focus on now isn’t silver itself, but where the money goes when silver falls.
If it’s flowing into the dollar, then caution is warranted.
If it’s just rotation within the market, then just ignore it.
Don’t imagine a big drama just from a number; the market isn’t cooperating with that narrative.

The real test now isn't demand. It's whether tight supply and pricing power can survive through FY28 without triggering too much new capacity$PUMP price is moving, but the trading volume hasn't confirmed it, which is more worth watching than a 24-hour +10.05% change.
Currently, the 1-hour trading volume is only 0.68 times the average volume of the previous 20 bars, with both 1-hour and 4-hour volumes relatively strong. The direction seems consistent, but participation is low; a breakout without volume support often requires the next candlestick to confirm.
The current price is 0.005988, about 7.93% away from the 1-hour support at 0.005513, and about 2.84% from the resistance at 0.006158. Looking at both distances together is closer to the real risk than just focusing on a single rising or falling candlestick.
My observation line is clear: only by standing back above and holding 0.006158 can the short-term initiative be regained; if it breaks below 0.005513, attention should shift to the 4-hour support at 0.004678. If pressure continues above, the 4-hour resistance at 0.006158 is temporarily just a distant reference, not a preset target.
Do you trust the current direction more, or do you think the low volume will cause this move to be quickly reversed?

$BTC rose 42.71% this quarter, the strongest quarter since Q4 2024 and the best Q3 performance since 2017
But many people overlook this 👀
Monthly inflows are shrinking: $172 million in July, $3.52 billion in August, $2.65 billion in September
And on the last day of September, about $149 million flowed out, ending the previous 9 consecutive days of about $3.1 billion inflow momentum

The market doesn't lie. It has been hammered down from 10.95, every rebound is tightly suppressed by the moving averages, each high is lower than the last, and volume keeps shrinking.
This is not a shakeout, this is a clear downtrend.
The real signal is that UNI on-chain in exchanges has piled up to a historic high of 113.9 million tokens, with Binance alone holding 73 million.
Smart money is moving into exchanges, are you still waiting for it to return to $10?
The macro picture is even clearer.
The October rate hike meeting is just ahead, and the probability of another hike this year is very high.

$BTC $ETH
#BTC、ETH现货ETF同步转流出，资金热度降温 The first truth: This surge to 87200 was not "bought up," it was "the shorts blowing themselves up."
First, let's clarify what fueled this sharp rise.
In the early hours of October 2, Bitcoin started from around 85000 and hit 86912 USD within an hour. During this hour, the entire network liquidated $125.67 million, with shorts accounting for $122.8 million. BTC shorts liquidated $87.16 million, ETH shorts liquidated $17.89 million.
At the same time, the 10-year US Treasury yield retreated from its previous high. Analysts at XTB pointed out that the strengthening dollar and rising bond yields had been suppressing Bitcoin, but the yield pullback gave risk assets some breathing room.
But you need to see one thing clearly: the yield pullback was just the "starting gun," the real driving force was the short squeeze.
Between 85000 and 85500, a large number of short positions had previously accumulated. These traders bet that "85000 was the top." When the price broke through 85500, their liquidation lines were triggered, and the system automatically bought to close positions. This buying pushed the price higher, triggering more short liquidations. From 85000 to 87200, this $2200 increase was mostly bought out by the shorts' own margin. $ZEC short positions are holding steady! The bottom-fishing funds in this market are completely just going through the motions.
Look at the real data traces: the day before yesterday, there were 921 smart money bulls; when the price was smashed early this morning, over 100 bottom-fishers rushed in, reaching 1035. But now, looking again, they have retreated back to 920 unchanged.
What does this indicate? There are indeed people daring to pick up chips when the price drops, but they simply can't hold on. At the slightest disturbance, these bottom-fishers run faster than anyone else. The newly entered bulls have no conviction, and the old bulls are all looking for opportunities to break even and cash out. The whole market looks lively, but at this price level, there is no real buying power willing to hold firm to the end.
If the buying power can't be retained, the price definitely can't hold. I continue to hold my short position tightly, just watching how much longer these weak bulls can stubbornly hold on!"Sisters, you can add to your positions with floating profits now, you can roll your positions.
This wave for ZEC is really at its end.
Look at the trend, Bitcoin broke a new high but couldn't hold it and came back.
What about $ZEC?
It never broke through 1400, and now it can't even hold 1380.
This rally is probably really over; the trend has completely reversed.
I opened a short at 1656.46, with a return of 877%.
At this position, I'm not in a hurry to exit; instead, I plan to use the profits to roll the position.
Why? Because once a trend forms, it won't end easily.
The strategy is simple: wait for it to rebound near 1380, if it fails to rally strongly, I'll add one more short position with floating profits.
Stop loss is set above 1420, target first at 1300, if it breaks down, then head to 1200. Using profits to roll means even if there's a pullback, the principal won't be hurt.
The bearish reasons are clear: Non-farm payroll just passed, the rate hike meeting is at the end of the month, and liquidity will only tighten.
ZEC, as a privacy coin, has always faced regulatory pressure. The key is, when Bitcoin rises, it doesn't follow; when Bitcoin falls, it must follow. This kind of weak coin, once funds withdraw, will continuously drop and won't stop because of a single decline.
For sisters who want to follow, don't chase shorts; wait for a rebound near 1380 to try a light position, stop loss above 1420, target 1300.
Don't go heavy, set your take profit properly.

#美国9月非农仅增2.9万，失业率升至4.2% Bitcoin surges to 87,200 then crashes: $120 million shorts just got "buried alive," and the same group immediately buried their longs too
In the early hours of October 2, Bitcoin violently surged from around 85,000 to 87,200, liquidating $125.67 million within an hour, with shorts liquidated at $122.8 million—BTC alone accounted for $87.16 million.
If you watched the candlestick during that hour thinking, "87,000 is broken through, 90,000 is not far," and chased in, then what I’m writing today is for you.
Because a few hours later, BTC fell back to around 85,000. Your long position is now at an unrealized loss. Meanwhile, long-term holders are accelerating their selling, with whales reducing their BTC holdings by 30,000 coins over the past week.
What you see is a "pullback after a surge." What I see is a "two-way squeeze" paved with the bodies of shorts and finished off by retail chasing highs. $BTC $ETH $ZEC #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 #美债收益率频创新高，长期利率压力未缓解 The non-farm payrolls release directly ignited the market, with $BTC surging to 86764 and $ETH standing above 2753. This round of rapid rise is driven by macro data.
Non-farm payrolls increased by 29,000 (expected 90,000), unemployment rate at 4.2%, hourly wages up 3.0%. Economic cooling + slowing wage inflation, the market is rushing ahead of rate cut expectations, funds flowing into crypto assets.
The previously predicted data-driven market has already materialized, and the trend direction is clear.
But after the rapid surge, short-term correction risks also rise.
✅ Continue holding spot positions to keep profits;
❌ Do not chase highs with empty positions, as it’s easy to catch the short-term peak.
Focus on resistance levels: BTC 88000, ETH 3000, take profits in batches upon reaching these points to lock in gains.
⚠️ Following the trend to go long is fine, but avoid heavy positions and emotional trading; seek steady profits. #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 BTC at $86,000: Are You Chasing the Rally or Waiting for Confirmation? 📊 Nine consecutive days of ETF inflows have come to an end. PCE inflation data came in cooler than expected, yet rising US Treasury yields continue to pressure risk assets. Despite all this, $BTC has recovered from $82,600 to $86,000. So, is this the beginning of a second rally, or just another struggle against a major supply zone? Let's break down what the market is telling us. 1️⃣ Positive PCE Data, but Why Did the Rally LGTC current price is 0.12852, with a golden cross below the MACD zero line and RSI rebounding from the bottom. According to CoinGlass data, around 0.1271 is a dense liquidation zone for short positions; once the price stands above this level, the liquidation pressure below sharply decreases, strengthening short-term upward momentum. However, a large number of long position liquidations accumulate between 0.1350 and 0.1450, so pushing the price up easily triggers a pullback.
Just finished my shift, placed my thermos on the windowsill, and continue watching the market.
With TOKEN2049 approaching, the institutional dinner wave in Singapore and Aptos's 160,000 TPS narrative will boost market sentiment, but GTC's own liquidation structure is the key. After confirming a breakout above 0.1271, you can take a light long position, entry zone between 0.1275 and 0.1290, first take-profit at 0.1350, second take-profit at 0.1430. Set stop-loss at 0.1245; if it breaks below, exit without hesitation. If there is volume stagnation near 0.1350, decisively reduce positions. Overall bias is bullish, but be cautious of selling pressure caused by long position liquidations.

@OKX星球 On-chain identity is valuable, but real-world identity should not be turned into a permanently public record.
Ethereum can be used to record identity credentials, qualifications, and issuance relationships, allowing holders to prove certain attributes across different services without having to submit all their information to a central database each time. When governments or institutions adopt this, what truly matters is not directly writing names and addresses on-chain, but enabling users to choose what to disclose, allowing credential updates and revocations, and keeping sensitive data in appropriate storage layers. Public blockchains cannot arbitrarily delete data; if designed incorrectly, privacy damage may persist long-term. The value $ETH gains from such use comes from settlement and verification demands, not from the mere fact of "being on-chain." Even if a project announces it uses Ethereum, it is important to continue observing who issues the credentials, whether users can migrate them, and if verification remains possible after the frontend shuts down. Digital sovereignty should not become another permanent surveillance system.
Identity systems must also distinguish between credential invalidation and historical erasure. Issuers can declare a qualification no longer valid but should not have the power to arbitrarily rewrite other user records; the clearer the boundaries, the more sustainable the system.
The first principle of protecting identity is to expose as little as possible, not to record more.
Minimal disclosure, revocability, and portability are all indispensable.Today's battle is over
Lost 800 bucks 😭
Carelessly shorted $SOL , got trapped again
Went to the street at night and bought a bag of marinated snacks, only 100 bucks
$XIAOMI I really didn't expect to lose so much, it's terrifying, I originally thought I had bottomed out, but it dropped so much today 😭
Today's summary, a day of losses, ending in failure!
#OctoberRateHikeOdds #BTCETHETFOutflows
@OKX中文 @OKX Macro Pulse U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs remain a major driver: September recorded about $2.65B of net inflows, the second-largest monthly inflow since October 2025. October also started with about $102.7M of inflows. 📈 US spot Bitcoin ETFs just pulled in $6.34B in Q3
That's a full reversal from the $5B that walked out the door in Q2
BTC ran 42.71% over the quarter — its strongest quarter since Q4 2024, and its best Q3 since 2017 $BTC
But here's the part most people are skipping past 👀
The monthly inflows are shrinking: $172M in July, $3.52B in August, $2.65B in September
And on the last day of September, roughly $149M left the ETFs, ending a 9-day inflow streak worth about $3.1B
$ETH 🇺🇸 In September, the nonfarm payrolls increased by only 29,000, far below the market expectation of 90,000; the unemployment rate rose to 4.2%, and wage growth slowed in tandem. This means the U.S. labor market has cooled significantly, prompting the market to reassess the Fed's policy path in October. 📉 Weakening 📉 employment data, rate hike expectations may further cool 📉, long-term U.S. Treasury yields under 📉 pressure, dollar under 📈 pressure. The macro environment for risk assets has improved somewhat, but interestingly—BTC did not rise directly. Before the nonfarm payroll release, $BTC had already broken through $87,000 ahead of schedule. After the data was released, prices instead quickly retreated. Why? Because the market may have already traded in the expectation of "cooling employment." Meanwhile, a large amount of profit-taking positions accumulated near $87,000, triggering short-term cash-out after the data release, putting pressure on both bulls and bears simultaneously. 🔥 What truly deserves attention is the source of funds behind this round of rallying. Spot ETFs continue to see capital inflows, and institutions continue to allocate at previously lower levels. Therefore, nonfarm payrolls seem more like a catalyst accelerating the rally rather than the true starting point of this rally. In the short term, the macro environment has improved, but profit-taking at high levels cannot be ignored. ⚠️ The stronger the market, the more caution is needed to chase highs. Once the market enters a phase of high volatility, both rapid rallies and rapid drawdowns may occur. Next, focus on: 👀 $BTC Can ETF funds regain key high 👀 levels?Started October with a big loss

#交易之声：你的经验值得被听到 📉 Short-term Market Analysis (15 minutes - 1 hour): Sharp Drop and Washout, Searching for Support
· Price Performance: BTC surged to 87,239 overnight but faced strong resistance, then quickly dropped, hitting a low of 85,270, currently struggling around 85,300.
· Technical Patterns:
· 15-minute level: Exhibits an extremely steep one-sided decline. Moving averages (MA5/10/20/30) all turned downward forming a bearish alignment. MACD crossed below zero, with a large green bar volume (-318.7), indicating severe short-term selling pressure. Price is currently hugging the lower Bollinger Band (85,388), indicating an oversold condition.
· 1-hour level: Consecutive large bearish candles broke below MA5/MA10, currently testing support at MA20 (85,646) and MA30 (85,163). MACD formed a death cross at a high level (-170.7), breaking the short-term bullish structure.
· Short-term Key Levels: Strong support lies in the 85,000 - 85,200 range (1-hour MA30 and psychological level); breaking below may lead to a rapid drop to 84,000. Resistance is back at 86,000-86,200 (1-hour Bollinger middle band).
📊 Major Trend (4 hours - 1 day): Rejected and Falling Back, Wide-range Consolidation for Accumulation
· 4-hour level: This large bearish candle almost swallowed the daytime gains. Price broke below MA5 (85,608), MACD red bars significantly shortened (496.3), momentum weakened. However, overall moving averages remain bullish (MA10 at 84,778, MA30 at 83,984), so the uptrend is not completely reversed, representing a sharp correction after a rapid rise.
· Daily level:
· The daily candle has a long upper shadow, indicating heavy selling pressure in the 87,300-87,400 zone (previous high 87,374), forming a potential double top pattern.
· Notably, the daily MACD lines (DIF 1987.5, DEA 2083.4) failed to form a golden cross and instead diverged downward again (green bar -191.8), suggesting the daily adjustment cycle is extended and short-term breakthrough of previous highs is unlikely.
· The core major support lies at the daily MA20 (82,029) and the Bollinger middle band; as long as the 82,000-83,000 zone is not decisively broken, the large-scale bullish structure remains intact, currently in a wide consolidation phase within a bull market.
💡 Comprehensive Trading Suggestions
· Major Trend: Bullish in the medium to long term, but currently in a deep short-term correction and consolidation phase. The 87,000-87,400 zone is confirmed as a strong short-term resistance area.
· Trading Strategy:
· Avoid catching falling knives blindly: Selling pressure on 15-minute and 1-hour charts is not fully released; do not rush to bottom fish at 85,300.
· Wait for stabilization signals: Patiently wait for price to show a stopping candle near 85,000 or 84,000-84,500 (4-hour MA10 and previous support), such as a long lower shadow or doji, with MACD volume contraction, then gradually enter light long positions with stop loss below 83,500.
· Short-term short on rebounds: If price rebounds to 86,000-86,200 resistance, consider light short positions targeting 84,500, with stop loss above 86,800.
· Spot traders: This is a correction washout phase; continue holding base positions and consider adding near the daily MA20 (around 82,000) as an excellent opportunity.
· Risk Warning: Contract trading is highly volatile with clear dual explosive moves; strictly control position size (within 5x leverage), use stop losses, and avoid heavy positions or holding through large adverse moves.$BTC has broken out of the bullish pennant with increased volume, and spot buying is following up.
Bitcoin is now approaching the yearly opening price.
If it can close above 87500 on the daily chart, a surge to 90000 will be quick.
If it gets rejected again at this level, it will likely retest the breakout point, around 84500.$ETH Volume, VWAP, and Institutional Capital Flow Analysis
Key Conclusion: The volume exploded to a massive 491.78M USDT, accompanied by a large bearish candle, confirming the "massive volume meets peak price" characteristic. This suggests that institutions conducted extremely aggressive distribution around 2,770. The VWAP (2,734.11) remains high, with intraday capital deeply trapped across the board. Under the baseline scenario, after a volume contraction and consolidation, a further decline is highly probable.
In-depth Volume and Capital Flow Analysis:
Volume is the core evidence revealing the truth behind the breakout. From the VOL (USDT) histogram at the bottom of the screenshot, it is evident that during the decline at 22:00 on October 2, there was a very significant red volume spike. The current 1-hour level transaction amount reached 491.78M USDT (equivalent to 182.04k ETH). The appearance of such a "massive volume long bearish candle" at the end of an uptrend is a typical institutional sell-off signal. Major funds took advantage of the market's euphoric sentiment to offload a large amount of chips to retail investors chasing highs and quantitative funds within a very short time.
Considering VWAP14 (2,734.11), the current price of 2,693.82 is far below VWAP, meaning almost all active buy orders during the day are at a loss. VWAP has become an extremely heavy "resistance line"; any rebound failing to break through VWAP with volume will be an invalid rebound. Looking at the Basis (spread) reported at 2,732.51, close to VWAP, it indicates a clear discount structure in the perpetual contract market, with market sentiment leaning bearish and shorts starting to dominate pricing power.
The microstructure of capital flow shows that a large amount of long positions chased highs in the 2,730-2,770 range, triggering a chain liquidation after breaking the 2,730 support. AVL (2,701.49) is slightly above the current price, indicating the short-term average price line is attempting to provide support, but its strength is questionable. The current capital flow conclusion is: this is a "deleveraging" process triggered jointly by macro liquidity tightening and key technical breakdowns. Until there is an extreme "panic volume spike" or a "volume breakout bullish candle" reclaiming VWAP, the capital flow does not support a trend reversal. Traders should closely monitor volume changes near 2,672; if volume contracts on a pullback without breaking this level, a short-term bottom can be expected. After experiencing a day of trading where you made thousands or even tens of thousands, those people and things that used to keep you awake at night suddenly become unimportant. It's not money that makes you indifferent; it's the first time you realize that making money is the most efficient form of rest. Attention has a cost, and 80% of interpersonal relationships actually consume energy. The greatest joy of making a living through trading is that it uses the most direct profits to buy back your excessive empathy, giving you true freedom of choice. You can avoid people you don't want to see, not argue over things you don't agree with, and no longer engage with emotions that aren't yours, reserving your attention for what truly matters. Wealth lies in cognition, value lies in perspective. True wealth is not about everyone surrounding you, but knowing where you want to go even when the world is noisy.$ETH Momentum Indicator Divergence Signal and Bull-Bear Energy Consumption
Key Conclusion: Both KDJ and RSI indicators have weakened, issuing a strong bearish signal. KDJ (K:31.43, D:44.37) forms a high-level death cross, with the K line sharply falling away from the D line; RSI6 (25.41) breaks below 30 approaching extreme oversold territory, RSI12 (38.79) falls below 40. Under the baseline scenario, momentum indicators suggest there is still downward room for price, but RSI6 nearing extreme oversold calls for caution against an oversold rebound.
In-depth Analysis of Momentum Indicators:
A deep dive into the momentum indicators below the chart. KDJ stochastic indicator: current K value is 31.43, D value is 44.37. From the chart trend, the K line has clearly crossed downward through the D line, forming a "high-level death cross" pattern. Moreover, the K line (31.43) has dropped well below 50 into a weak zone, rapidly approaching the 20-30 oversold area. On the 1-hour timeframe, this rapid decline usually indicates a concentrated release of short-term bearish pressure. This explains why the price suffered such a severe sell-off after hitting 2,776.
Next, looking at the RSI relative strength index: RSI6 reports 25.41, RSI12 reports 38.79, RSI24 reports 46.33. This is a very standard "bearish alignment" structure. RSI6 breaks below 30, approaching the traditional extreme oversold zone at 20, indicating extremely concentrated selling pressure over the past 6 hours. The negative divergence between RSI6 and RSI24 widens, showing concentrated short-term selling pressure release. From a divergence perspective, if the price continues to make new lows (e.g., breaking below 2,670) but RSI6 refuses to make new lows and starts to turn upward, a classic "bullish divergence" pattern will form, signaling a strong reversal buy opportunity.
Current momentum indicators suggest: the market is in the late stage of "concentrated bearish momentum release." With the resonance of the KDJ death cross and RSI6 nearing extreme oversold, chasing shorts now has a very poor risk-reward ratio (prone to short squeezes), while the value of long-side speculation is becoming apparent. Rational traders should not continue panic selling when KDJ is below 35 and RSI6 is below 30. Instead, more attention should be paid to K line patterns; if "long lower shadows," "engulfing patterns," or other bottoming signals appear, light long positions can be tried to speculate on an oversold rebound. But remember, in a bearish trend, oversold conditions can become even more oversold, so strict stop-losses must be set.
---$ETH was previously ambushed, with a stop loss at 2770 almost triggered. It's the classic buy on expectations, sell on facts. Outside, there was all good news, and when it suddenly surged to 2760, my emotions wavered. There was a voice in my head telling me to reverse and go long following the data, but luckily I held back and didn't break my initial position idea. The current profit feels more like a reward for discipline; better to die at the stop loss than to be greedy.📊 Technical Analysis: 2616 is the last line of defense for short-term bulls. Currently, $ETH is oscillating between 2630–2720. 2616 is right near a key support area, with the following below: ➤ SMA20: around 2620 ➤ EMA30: around 2567 This means that near 2616, there is both previous low and moving average support. If it breaks down effectively, the correction space may further expand; if it holds, it can serve as a relatively clear short-term observation zone. 📰 News: The "Golden Pit" brought by Nonfarm Payroll data? The latest nonfarm employment data was significantly below expectations, with only 29,000 new jobs added, and the previous value was revised down, pushing the unemployment rate up to 4.2%. After the data release, $ETH quickly dropped about 3.7% in the short term, with market sentiment showing concentrated release. However, from a macro perspective, cooling employment may reduce expectations for further tightening policies, providing some support for risk assets. Meanwhile, Citi raised ETH's 12-month target price from $2240 to $3028. 📌 Trading Plan If $ETH returns to the 2616–2620 range, focus on observing the bulls' reaction. 🎯 First Target: 2680–2700 🚀 If it breaks through 2720, further attention to 2780 🛡️ Risk Control: Stop loss after breaking below 2570 ⚖️ Position: 10%–15% ⛓️ Leverage: No more than 3x Note: 2616 is not the current price Recently, the news about Binance investing in Circle has been brewing.
Many people focus on the $100 million.
But I am more concerned about another issue.
Why are more and more platforms starting to invest in stablecoin infrastructure instead of creating their own stablecoins?
I think the answer might be:
In the future, what truly holds value is not just issuing a Stablecoin.
It's about who owns more payment scenarios, greater liquidity, and more real users.
So now when I look at a project, I pay less attention solely to the price.
I focus more on:
• Whether on-chain transactions are continuously growing;
• Whether funds are continuously flowing in;
• Whether liquidity is improving;
• Whether users are genuinely using it.
Recently, I always check these data first on Ave.ai.
Many times, the price reflects market sentiment.
The real trends often appear first in on-chain data.
What do you think will be the biggest moat for Stablecoins in the future: issuance capability or ecosystem and distribution capability? $BTC Cross-Market Macro Mapping and Comprehensive Scenario Simulation
Key Conclusion: BTC surged to 87,000 before crashing sharply, perfectly confirming the logic of "macro high interest rates suppressing risk assets." The high 10-year US Treasury yield and pre-market risk-off sentiment in US stocks were the last straw that broke the bulls' backs. Under the baseline scenario, the market will fluctuate widely between 84,500 and 86,000 to digest the macro bearish factors.
Macro Correlation and Scenario Simulation:
From a global macro perspective, the current 1-hour level sharp drop in BTC is essentially a brutal liquidation of the "local bubble in the crypto market" caused by "macro liquidity tightening." The 10-year US Treasury yield hovering around 5.11% makes the opportunity cost of the non-yielding asset BTC extreme. When US stock index futures weaken pre-market, the crypto market, as the most liquidity-sensitive "canary," reacts first with a sharp drop.
Comprehensive Scenario Simulation:
1. Optimistic Scenario (30% probability): Oversold V-shaped reversal. If the Nasdaq strongly rebounds after the US market opens and Treasury yields fall, risk appetite will recover. BTC will form a double bottom near 85,239 and, relying on the KDJ's extremely oversold golden cross, launch a violent rebound to retest 86,155 (VWAP) and 87,120 (upper Bollinger band).
2. Baseline Scenario (50% probability): Low-level oscillation, indicator repair. Macro data is in a vacuum period, and bulls and bears reach a weak balance between 85,000 and 86,000. BTC will continue to digest the weakness of KDJ and the decline of RSI by exchanging time for space, with volume maintaining a moderate level of 3.0k-4.0k BTC, waiting for new macro catalysts.
3. Pessimistic Scenario (20% probability): Macro black swan or chain liquidation. If Treasury yields further surge above 5.2%, or a geopolitical black swan event occurs, it will trigger a comprehensive sell-off of risk assets. BTC will break the 85,239 support and quickly probe down to 84,182.8 (lower Bollinger band) or even the previous low of 83,413.0. Breaking below 83,400 will confirm a complete mid-term bearish trend reversal.
Trading Desk Operation Plan (Not Investment Advice):
During the current extreme oversold and bearish trend battle period, a "defensive counterattack" strategy is recommended. Aggressive traders can lightly go long near 85,200-85,300 with stop loss set below 85,100, targeting 86,000-86,100. Conservative traders should wait for a clear golden cross below 20 on the KDJ and for price to break above VWAP (86,155.9) with volume before entering long positions. Total position size is recommended to be controlled within 5%, with strict stop loss. The market is always right; forecasts are just plans, and response is key.
Risks and Disclaimer: This content is for macro research only and does not constitute any investment advice. The crypto market is influenced by macro liquidity, regulatory policies, and on-chain whale behavior, with extremely volatile 1-hour level fluctuations. Actual trends may significantly deviate from predictions. The market carries risks; decisions require independent judgment.Non-farm payrolls fell far short of expectations, which should be positive news, with the Nasdaq and Nvidia both hitting new highs, yet Bitcoin couldn't break through! The data caused a 15-minute spike to 87,238, but after the U.S. stock market opened, it dropped all the way down to 85,366. Doesn't this look familiar? It's the same script as the PCE from the day before yesterday!
So why can't Bitcoin rise? Four reasons:
1️⃣ The positive news was already priced in: Bitcoin had already risen 3% before the data, and the non-farm payrolls just confirmed expectations. A typical "buy the rumor, sell the fact" scenario.
2️⃣ U.S. Treasury yields didn't actually fall: The probability of a rate hike in December remains above 75%. Without relief from interest rate pressure, Bitcoin struggles to sustain buying momentum.
3️⃣ Money is chasing AI: Nvidia and the Nasdaq led the gains today. Crypto stocks surged at the open but quickly pulled back after reaching highs.
4️⃣ There is a triple top above 87,300: The price was pushed down from the same level for the third time, indicating heavy selling pressure there.
The daily candle hasn't closed yet, but it already looks like a false breakout. Is it really a false breakout? We can't conclude yet; the key is to watch two levels:
✅ Holding 85,000–85,650: This would be a normal pullback after a breakout, the structure remains intact, and only by reclaiming 87,400 can there be a chance to push toward 90,000.
❌ Breaking below 84,300 on the 4-hour chart: This would confirm today's breakout as false. Next support levels to watch are around 82,500 and the 78,000–80,000 range, with the farthest possible pullback to the 200-day moving average at 71,500. Whale's 207 million: BTC as ballast, ETH as the sail
Before the CPI night, the market bets on a rate cut path, while geopolitics and gold steal the spotlight. But what’s really worth dissecting is that 207 million position: no spreading out, just betting on the core.
BTC is the ballast stone. 1,200 coins, 20x full position long, opened at 70,500, forced liquidation below 62,100. It’s not meant to dazzle, but to stabilize the account. A thick enough buffer prevents being shaken off by sudden spikes—this is the steadfastness of the base position.
ETH is the sail. 43,000 coins, 30x full position long, opened at 2,850, liquidation at 2,210. The 600+ point buffer shows it’s not a bet on a single candlestick, but using leverage to change direction and buffer to survive. It needs flexibility but avoids easy capsizing.
Small positions like SOL and Meme are more like probes: winning adds color, losing doesn’t hurt the principal.
The key to this structure isn’t leverage, but concentration. Hot topics can create legends, but only BTC and ETH can hold large funds and weather macro storms. CPI, interest rate decisions, Middle East, gold prices—all external noise; what decides life or death is the underlying assets and distance to forced liquidation.
Big players don’t buy diversely; they place heavy bets where survival is most likely.
$BTC $ETH $SOL Derivatives — Short Covering Dominates, OI Declines
This is the most important current microstructure signal: Open Interest (OI) decreased by 3% in the past 24 hours while the price rose by 2.16%. Price rising accompanied by OI falling usually indicates more short covering rather than new long entries — shorts are squeezed and forced to close positions, pushing the price up, but the foundation is weaker than a rally driven by strong new long entries.
The aggressive buy/sell ratio is 0.594, meaning that in the recent hour, sell volume was nearly 1.7 times the buy volume. Aggressive market sell orders are pressing the price down. The global long/short ratio is 0.9146, with 52.2% of market positions being short. Even top traders hold 51.2% of their positions short.
The funding rate is only 0.0027%, basically neutral. QCP points out that an annualized funding rate of 5.4% indicates this round of price increase is driven by spot buying rather than leverage, but the derivatives data showing OI decline and aggressive selling dominance contradicts this assessment. $BTC $ETH $ZEC #美伊升级风险再升，布油重回100美元 Brothers, seeing this message in the middle of the night really woke me up!
Just now, an unknown wallet directly unstaked 956,600 $SOL, worth a full 116 million USD! Making such a big move so late at night, honestly, it’s pretty nerve-wracking to watch.
Let’s analyze what this whale might be up to. Unlocking this many tokens could mean a few things: first, they might be preparing to dump and run, throwing over 100 million worth of tokens onto exchanges, which would definitely shake SOL’s price; second, they might have found a big buyer off-exchange and are doing an OTC deal, bypassing the secondary market; third, they could be switching positions or moving into other DeFi projects. After all, everyone’s guessing the market direction these days.
What’s interesting is that this guy chose this timing, clearly trying not to cause too much panic and working quietly. If they really wanted to dump, wouldn’t it be better to sell in batches? Unlocking so many at once is obviously a clear signal to pressure the market.
Anyway, my current move is to stay put and watch if these hundreds of thousands of SOL flow into exchanges. If they do, we need to be cautious and get ready to buy the dip; if not, it’s just a false alarm.🔥 About $360 million liquidated in 24 hours after the non-farm payrolls, with shorts accounting for about 74%, a typical short squeeze
⚡ BTC contract open interest is about $56 billion, funding rate about 3 times the 7-day average, ETH is also pushing towards 2,750, leverage is coming back
⏰ Fast gains don’t mean stable gains, around 87,000 is the next test
📍 Contract data
· About $363 million liquidated in 24 hours, with shorts about $270 million and longs about $93 million, involving about 79,000 people
· BTC perpetual funding rate about 0.0068%, about 3 times the 7-day average, slightly positive but not extreme
· Total BTC contract open interest about 653,000 coins, equivalent to about $56 billion
📊 Analysis
1️⃣ Price up, open interest up, funding rate turns positive, indicating new leveraged longs entering, not just short covering
2️⃣ The 82,300 to 82,600 range below is a dense long liquidation zone; falling back there could trigger cascading liquidations
3️⃣ After a short squeeze, the market depends on whether spot and ETF funds can hold up
🎯 Key points: Holding above 87,000 leaves room to squeeze shorts; a pullback to around 82,000 means longs should be cautious

$BTC $ETH $SOL #美国9月非农仅增2.9万，失业率升至4.2% SAND current price is 0.06246, the 4-hour RSI is still in the overbought zone but has turned downward, with the price rubbing against the lower edge of the 0.0627 long liquidation dense area. This area accumulates leveraged positions from high-level chasing longs; the liquidation chart shows that once 0.0620 is broken, it will trigger continuous strong liquidations, and short-term selling pressure won't come slowly but will crash out instantly.
The rebound supply zone is between 0.0650 and 0.0662, which is the volume-heavy trap zone from the previous day's high spike and pullback, making it difficult to surpass in one go in the short term. Operationally, short in batches on the rebound from 0.0648 to 0.0660, with stop loss set above 0.0672, targeting first 0.0605, and if broken, then 0.0580. Just turned the car into a backstreet shaded by trees, the phone's order reminders make my pocket numb, eyes still glued to the K-line. If it directly breaks below 0.0618 with volume, lightly chase shorts, defending at 0.0635.
Don't randomly buy below 0.0627; that's not support, it's liquidation fuel.

@OKX星球 Revised to sound more like Chinese financial news / crypto market updates, adding logical flow and market sentiment analysis while retaining key levels:
Crypto Market Analysis Post Nonfarm Payroll Release
🚨【Why Did the Crypto Market Rally Then Pull Back After the Nonfarm Data?】
The nonfarm payroll data has been released, but the market did not follow the simple "good news = price rise" script.
The data shows that US September nonfarm payrolls increased by only about 29,000, with the unemployment rate rising to 4.2%. This signals a cooling labor market, but market trading focuses not only on employment data but also on interest rate expectations, US Treasury yields, and capital flows.
📌 $BTC｜Around 85888
After the nonfarm release, BTC briefly surged to 87239 before quickly pulling back.
The 15-minute RSI6 dropped to 26.63, entering the oversold zone, while MACD bearish momentum continues to release.
Key resistance to watch is in the 86600—87200 range;
Support levels are first at 85200, with stronger support at 83700.
A short-term technical rebound is possible, but if the rebound fails to hold above key resistance, beware of a further pullback after the rally.
📌 $ETH｜Around 2723
ETH weakened in sync with BTC, with the 15-minute RSI6 around 27.78, also entering oversold territory.
Resistance: 2760
Support: 2680
Critical defense: 2672
Currently, ETH has not shown any clear independent strength structure and remains mainly influenced by BTC and overall market risk appetite in the short term.
📌 $ZECSold too early. I was worried that BTC would drop right after the labor data release despite the positive news.
WLD is still strong, the strong get stronger. I wonder if it can still be bought back at 0.55?As for the Ministry of Finance's long-term bond buybacks, the Ministry of Finance has always been insufficient. The promised 6 billion yuan was never fully purchased. Now, it seems likely they don't want the market to see it as the Ministry of Finance providing a backup for long-term bonds, stimulating selling too aggressively. #美债收益率频创新高, long-term interest rate pressure has not eased. As Becent said, the Ministry of Finance's increased buybacks are to provide liquidity, not to suppress yields and provide a safety net for long-term bonds (the purpose is clear). That's why the Ministry of Finance follows a gradual approach. It wasn't until October 1 that they bought 6 billion yuan, but still didn't boost market confidence much. During the repo operation on October 1, the Ministry of Finance bought the 6 billion quota for the first time, but the market's submitted sell quota also soared to 46.4 billion, 7.7 times the repurchase quota. Clearly, the bond market's sell orders were stronger. This buyback has an unusual structure: among the long-term bond sellers, 41 qualified institutions were involved, but the Ministry of Finance only chose 2 to repurchase the quota. Although the buyback quota reached 6 billion yuan, However, the actual cash payment was only 4.47 billion yuan (calculated based on repurchase coupon). In other words, the Ministry of Finance eliminated about 6 billion yuan in debt with just 4.47 billion yuan this time, indicating that the Ministry of Finance has a price choice in the buyback. So here's the problem: sellers want to sell at a higher price, while the Ministry of Finance wants to eliminate debt at a lower price. In the short term, the pressure on long-term bond yields is limited. It will take longer to improve the environment on the long bond side through buybacks. I think the deadline for the additional buyback on November 4 will be extended【October 2 OKX Movers List｜The Metaverse didn't take me away, but it took over the top gainers list first 😂】
SAND rose 42.16%, with a trading volume of $6.15 million, ranking first in gains.
This time there was news driving it: the Korean exchange lifted the trading warning on SAND. It looks more like a rebound after previous risk concerns eased, so don't rush to shout "The metaverse bull market is back."
MAGIC rose 19.68%, APE rose 15.75%, several old gaming themes appeared together. My understanding is that the sector is showing linkage, but whether it can continue depends on whether subsequent trading volume can keep up.
NIGHT rose 20.44%, with a trading volume of $13.59 million; WLD rose 15.67%, with a trading volume of $34.91 million. The latter's gain didn't make the top three, but its trading volume exceeded the combined total of the top three in the screenshot. The biggest gainers and the most active trading are two different things.
On the downside, WIN fell 13.35%, DORA fell 12.59%, with trading volumes of only $465,000 and $44,600 respectively. Especially for DORA, the trading volume is too thin, so the decline ranking hardly represents the overall market sentiment.
Remember today: old themes are starting to rebound, those with news lead, and other coins follow the excitement.
Old coins can have a second spring, but don't be the last to hold your position again 😂
Data is as of the screenshot, for OKX list observation only, and does not constitute investment advice.$SNDK was boosted by Micron's positive earnings report, attracting many retail investors to chase the rally.
However, Friday was the last trading day of the week, and many institutions and large investors took the opportunity to cash out and sell off in concentration, causing the market to plunge quickly after the U.S. stock market opened.
But from a technical structure perspective, this round of decline did not break the key daily-level support, representing a short-term consolidation pullback after profit-taking rather than a trend reversal. As always, it is not suitable to short at this stage; continue to observe the effectiveness of the support.Can be changed to a news style more like "Crypto Circle Real-Time Updates + Position Management," enhancing information and interactivity:

🚨【Latest Trading Position Update】
$CAP currently has an unrealized loss of about 1000U. The question arises: should we continue holding tonight?
Feeling clearly sleepy now; if going straight to sleep, according to the current risk control plan, at least half of the position needs to be reduced first to avoid sudden drastic market fluctuations during sleep.
Should we reduce positions overnight or keep holding and wait for the market?
If reducing, what do you think about cutting 30%, 50%, or going down to a light position directly? 🥲
Also: 🔹 $SAND: The previous short position has hit stop loss; currently watching and not rushing to reopen.
🔹 $CT: The short position currently has an unrealized profit of about 200U; continuing to observe the trend, focusing on whether volume and price coordination appears later.
In this kind of market, position management is more important than direction.
If you're tired, don't force it; control risk first, then consider the next steps.📊$BTC has pulled up, but I'm not in a hurry to chase it.
The reason is simple: it has already risen from around $83,800 to over $87,000 during the session, releasing some of the short-term gains.
The most comfortable approach now is not to guess how much higher it can go, but to wait for the market to give a pullback confirmation.
Whether $85,000 can hold is the key point going forward.
If it holds, continue to watch for a breakthrough above $87,000; if it breaks below $84,000, then the short-term structure needs to be reassessed.
The market happens every day; there's no need to chase just for one position. Currently, $DOGE is trading near $0.09615, up about 1.88% intraday, with a volume of around $49M. In the short term, focus on the key zone of $0.095–$0.096. If the price first sweeps liquidity downward and then rebounds to $0.097, with volume significantly amplified, the bullish structure may be further confirmed. 📌 Trading plan: • Entry range: $0.0955–$0.0970 • Stop loss: $0.0935 • TP1: $0.099 • TP2: $0.101 • TP3: $0.104 • TP4: $0.108 If executed as planned, the potential P/L ratio could approach as close as 1:5+. ⚠️ $0.0935 is an important failure level; if it falls below it, the current trading logic needs to be reassessed. The current green candlestick cannot be considered a true confirmation. More importantly, observe the full process of liquidity sweeping → reclaiming key positions → volume amplification, to confirm whether buyers have truly regained the initiative #DOGE #Dogecoin #Crypto #DOGEUSDT #DailyOrbit$WLFI
Staking WLFI requires providing rewards of 50 million to 100 million USD1 to have any staking effect. Who has such a large volume to stake? Only the Trump family and the companies partnered with them.
Do you retail investors have such a large volume to stake?
This shows that the market doesn't have much trust in this coin. Everyone is selling off.
The role of WLFI is actually to provide lifeblood to USD1,
It's a very simple principle. The Trump family stakes the chips they hold. They get rewarded every time. Their price will keep dropping.
How much can you retail investors buy? You stake it, but it has no effect at all.
And they will secretly sell as well.
So basically, it's a scam.
The volume of this coin is too large. People who got trapped since last September are still stuck.
There's nothing they can do. The Trump family has no trust. Originally, it was a partnership with Sun Yuchen to harvest.
Neither of them are people with vision.
That's how it ended up like this.
This coin is dead.
They won't pump it for you.
Pumping would let you break even.
You stake your coins and can't move them, but they can pump while selling their coins out.
Even if they don't sell, the volume of coins Trump holds is huge. The weekly rewards he gets are more than any retail investor.
It's just a cycle of cutting leeks.
To keep USD1 alive. Trading for the past ten days, today was the most exhausting day.
$BTC held up against a $2500 drop today, currently still down about $700. If 85200 doesn't hold as support, it will soon enter the 83000-85000 consolidation range!
$ETH at 2702, short 20 ETH, with a maximum loss of $1500, luckily it showed some weakness, so I managed to exit and made a pork knuckle meal. If 2700 doesn't hold as support, it will soon enter the 2650-2695 consolidation range!
#美国9月非农仅增2.9万，失业率升至4.2% When BTC and ETH rise, $ZEC rise along with them, which is one thing; Now both BTC and ETH are pulling back, while $ZEC is still holding on, even trying to push it higher. The most puzzling question is, if most of the market supply is concentrated in the hands of a few addresses, what does this highly concentrated token structure really mean? If there is no release or selling for a long time, the circulating market will become more sensitive. But if the price remains strong, it makes one wonder: who is taking over? And who is maintaining this strong structure? Of course, price trends alone do not prove manipulation; what really matters is the changes in on-chain holdings, exchange inflows and outflows, and the dynamics of large addresses. $ZEC This market is indeed becoming increasingly confusing 👀 #ZEC #Bitcoin #Ethereum #Crypto #DailyOrbit#200 Yuan Challenge to 1 Million Phase 2 · Day 16
Today's account balance: 47.96, today -68.16 (-58.70%). Another night of a big drawdown.
Let's start with the good news. The $CT 10x long position opened yesterday took profit today, +4.96 (+58.66%). This is my highest single-trade return in Phase 2; yesterday's judgment paid off, riding the new coin's trend to a 58.66% gain.
Now the bad news, which is also the reason for today's significant account drawdown:
$SAND 20x, stop loss triggered, -8.22 (-105.07%). A 20x stop loss resulted in a 105% loss, meaning the entire principal was wiped out and then some.
$RESOLV 10x, stop loss triggered, -3.55 (-38.03%).
These three trades together today are my clearest lesson this month: with the same high leverage, CT 10x made 58.66%, while SAND 20x lost 105%. Both were my own trades, both exited by stop loss, the only difference was the leverage. Leverage is an amplifier when making money, but a meat grinder when losing.
I still hold a $SAND 5x short position (35.08 USDT, entry 0.06266), with stop loss already set.
The account has dropped from over a hundred after I re-deposited to 47.96. This rollercoaster ride has made me a bit dizzy, but I report the account honestly, not hiding a single trade.
The part I should scold myself most for today: after making money on CT, I got overconfident and went straight to 20x on SAND. The money earned from CT was lost and then some on SAND. This "getting carried away after a win" flaw, which I've written about many times, happened again today.
Let's discuss in the comments: do you find yourself increasing leverage on the next trade after a win?
Always use stop loss, low leverage, position management, and full disclosure of holdings. For reference only, not investment advice. #Anthropic plans to launch IPO in November, aiming to list before Thanksgiving
Broadcom lent Anthropic $42 billion to pay for its chip rent to Broadcom.
▪️ The $42 billion is convertible notes that can be converted into Anthropic shares, covering about one-third of its five-year $125.2 billion TPU lease.
▪️ The chips are actually from Google; Broadcom only does co-design — it acts as designer, lessor, and lender simultaneously.
▪️ Broadcom expects AI chip revenue of $115 billion in 2027, with Anthropic as its largest customer next year.
▪️ The prospectus clearly states: in case of default, most lease obligations become immediately due, while also restricting access to the $42 billion.
▪️ IPO schedule: Investor day on October 14, listing before Thanksgiving on November 26, with valuation estimates between $1.8 trillion and $2 trillion.
The disagreement is not about whether $42 billion is enough, but that the borrower and the lessor are the same entity — if things really go wrong, this money will actually be inaccessible.
The $42 billion accounts for only 2.5% of Broadcom's market value. During the 2000 telecom bubble, equipment vendors also lent money to customers to buy their own products — what do you think?Currently holding long positions, short-term focus should be on the upper boundary of the range near $87,300. If BTC can effectively break through and convert 87.3K into new support, then continue to watch: 🎯 TP1:87.3K 🎯 TP2:93K 🎯 TP3:96K–98K If the market extends further, the upside potential may continue to expand, but the key depends on the strength of support after the breakout. On the other hand, if BTC breaks through the range high and continues to test the weekly nPOC near 87.9K, or even further touches 88.23K, I will focus on whether there is a rally and pullback here. If the price falls back below 87.3K and confirms the breakout failed, bearish thinking may reemerge, with the target refocusing on the previous range low. 👀 The most important thing right now is not chasing the rally, but to observe whether the breakout above 87.3K → confirms the → holding #BTC #Bitcoin #Crypto #BTCUSDT #DailyOrbitGot squeezed today $LTC +3.90% | Ranting with a bearish bias $LTC current price 69.7, short. 3x leverage, stagger short orders from 70.3 to 70.5, stop loss at 71.3, first target 67.0, second target 65.6. Reason is clear: On October 2nd at 2 PM, that 1-hour candle opened at 71.05, peaked at 71.27, then plunged straight down to 69.38 and closed at 69.65. Single-hour volume was 6.3 million U, the strongest volume in the past 48 hours, all dumped on distribution. The big players pumped the price above 71 to lure longs in, then stabbed it down sharply, crushing those bulls who thought it would break out, giving them no chance to react. This is a 15-year-old coin, and it plays the pin bar moves even sharper than new listings, shaking the digital silver reputation almost like a tin can. The $LTC trend has to be traced back to September 25. That day opened at 70.11, surged to 74.95, with volume of 117 million U, the most glorious day in the past week, but closed only at 72.92, with a long upper wick like a lightning rod, clearly someone was selling there. Then five consecutive bearish candles followed one after another: September 26 down 2.47% closing at 71.12, 27th down 1.52% closing at 70.04, 28th the worst single-day drop 3.68% closing at 67.45, 29th down 0.53% closing at 67.1, 30th【Is leverage starting to rush ahead again in this BTC rally?】
$BTC has risen from about $83,500 on September 30 to around $86,500. The funding rate surged from about 3% to 10% in two days, and open interest (OI) increased from 626,000 to 653,000 contracts, an increase of about 27,000 contracts. On the surface, this looks like bulls re-entering the market, with price and OI rising together, indicating new positions are being taken.
But there is an important detail here: OI has just rebounded from a 12-month low, and 653,000 contracts are still some distance from the previous normal level of about 750,000 contracts. The current 10% funding rate looks more like a group of bulls willing to pay higher costs to chase the rally; the sentiment is hot, but it’s not yet a full-blown leverage runaway.
The spot market is actually more worth watching. In September, the US spot BTC ETFs had a net inflow of about $2.65 billion, and on the first day of October, there was also about $103 million inflow, indicating that real money has not disappeared.
So my current view on this rally is that the core contradiction is this: spot funds are supporting the bottom, but contract leverage is starting to rush ahead. Today’s non-farm payrolls were clearly below expectations, the probability of a rate hike in October dropped to about 15%, and BTC has again risen above $86,000, making the short-term environment quite comfortable. But if the funding rate continues to stay high, OI keeps surging, and spot inflows can’t keep up, once this long crowd gets crowded, the pullback will be fierce.
