Short-term focus can be on: 🔹 Upper resistance: 120.35 USD 🔹 Lower support: 116.90 USD 🔹 Core oscillation range: 116.9–120.4 USD Currently, bulls and bears are clearly in a stalemate, and the closer the price is to the range edges, the more significant the volatility after a breakout may be. Recently, SOL spot ETF funds have also changed, with a net outflow of about 11.1 million USD recorded on September 30, and the previously continuous inflow pace has slowed, so the strength of the breakout near 120 USD is worth close attention. On the macro side, the market focus has shifted to the US September non-farm payroll data. After the cooling of PCE data, the expectation of a rate hike in October has clearly declined, but employment data may still affect the interest rate path again; meanwhile, the long-term US Treasury yields previously rose to multi-year highs and remain a source of pressure for risk assets. Therefore, do not rush to chase gains in the short term: Holding above 120 USD → watch for further breakout space; Falling below 116.9 USD → pay attention to whether the oscillation structure weakens. $SOL $XRP $ZEC #RateHikeExpectationsCooling #SeptemberNonFarm #Solana #SOLMarket #BitcoinETF #USTreasuryYields #CryptoMarket$368 million in trading volume cannot be directly translated as net buying
As of 17:25 on October 1, OKX's $ETH spot 24-hour trading volume was approximately $368.5 million, with a volume of about 136,700 ETH. This figure proves market activity but does not tell us how much capital is "net inflow." Every trade has both a buyer and a seller; an increase in trading volume could come from active buying, panic selling, arbitrage turnover, or market makers continuously adjusting inventory. To determine whether capital is truly pushing up the cost, the trading volume needs to be put back into the price structure: after a volume surge and price rise, can the high level hold? Does selling pressure weaken during a pullback? Is the rebound sustained rather than just a spike? Today's price dropped from 2738.98 back to around 2691, indicating that the high-volume trading did not fully convert into stable support. Activity level is necessary information but not a directional conclusion. For $ETH, I prefer to see a higher platform formed after increased volume rather than using a nice total volume figure to mask a spike and fall. The volume-price relationship must be observed continuously; single-day trading volume cannot replace judgment.
If volume continues to increase but the price falls, the implication is completely opposite to a volume surge that holds steady at 2739.The recently released US August PCE was significantly below expectations, with core PCE year-on-year falling to 3.0%, giving risk assets a moment to breathe. BTC also briefly reclaimed the vicinity of $85,000. However, the problem is that US Treasury yields remain high, and macroeconomic pressures have not truly disappeared. The real test will be tonight's US September nonfarm payrolls. Currently, the market generally expects about 90,000 new nonfarm jobs, with the unemployment rate holding around 4.1%; previously, ADP data showed private sector employment increased by 90,000 in September, higher than the market expectation of 70,000. So the significance of this nonfarm payroll report is straightforward: If employment is significantly stronger than expected, the market may revisit the logic of "higher interest rates lasting longer," and US Treasury yields and the dollar could again pressure risk assets; if employment cools noticeably, it may further strengthen market expectations for a monetary policy pivot. $BTC BTC is currently fluctuating around $84,200–$84,500. At this stage, I am more focused on two levels: Support: $82,500–$83,000 Resistance: $85,000–$85,500 In the past week, US spot BTC ETFs saw net inflows of about $2.39 billion, indicating institutional demand still exists, but the inflow pace has clearly slowed in recent days. So now it's not simply about being bullish or bearish, but whether BTC can truly hold above $85,500. If it can't break above, the previous high remains resistance; if it can't hold $82,500, the consolidation structure may further seek lower levels.Woke up early in the morning

Then continued shorting $SOL, after observing these two days, found sol is still weak, tried a small short position 📉, will hold for a couple of days first
Still holding the short position on $XIAOMI, the market will open soon, let's see how it performs today. Many people are bearish on Xiaomi just by looking at the recent financial report.

#加息预期推迟，9月非农成下一关键 #比特币ETF连续9日流入，ETH转流出
@OKX中文 @OKX星球 $SOL is currently around $117.7 to $118.1, after reaching a 24-hour high of $119.6 and then pulling back, fluctuating in the short term between $116.7 and $120. In the medium term, it has rebounded from the June low with a structure leaning towards recovery. Continuous weekly net inflows from ETFs provide support, but it has been blocked twice near $125, and momentum has yet to confirm a breakout. Key resistance above is between $120 and $125; only a breakout with volume will have a chance to challenge $132 to $150. Support below is between $115 and $117; if broken, it may retest $106 to $110. The current trend is cautiously recovering, and in the short term, it is more suitable to observe whether $125 can be effectively reclaimed rather than chasing longs based solely on the rebound. "Slap of Leverage"
This move by the green-haired trader is like throwing a match into a pot of oil.
On $BTC, he simultaneously opened a 75x isolated long and a 100x cross long, both with entry costs above 84000. The positions were just opened around midnight, and within two to three hours, the market only dropped less than 1%, about seven to eight hundred dollars, yet the account was already severely damaged: one position lost 71%, the other 60%, totaling over 3000 U. It’s not that the direction was wildly wrong, but leverage amplified normal fluctuations into fatal wounds.
$ETH was even more urgent. With 100x isolated leverage, 30 long contracts entered at 2693, within an hour the price dropped to 2678, just a 15-dollar, less than 1% decline, but the principal evaporated nearly 62%, over 500 U lost. There were also short orders below that weren’t fully closed, likely repeatedly harvested in the crossfire of longs and shorts.
The cruelest part of high leverage is that the market doesn’t need to crash; it only needs to shake lightly for the positions to collapse first. Frequent order openings and heavy positions charging forward may seem aggressive, but in reality, they leave life and death to minute-level fluctuations. The market doesn’t target anyone; it’s just that leverage first wipes out the margin for error.
#比特币ETF连续9日流入，ETH转流出 Looking at this account, I fell into deep thought.
Both are long positions, both are "buy," so why is the difference so huge?!🤡
Big coin (BTC) 10x full position, steady as an old dog, comfortably floating profit +5892 U (+7%). Estimated liquidation price at 75,000, this position is so safe I even want to take a nap.😎
Then look at the neighbor's SOL... 50x isolated margin, opening average price 120.33, current price 118.74. Although it only dropped less than 2 points, the power of leverage directly turned the profit into -66.06%!💀
Floating loss of 159 U is not much, but this -66% red number is literally torturing my heart. Liquidation price 80.73, now it's like walking a tightrope.
The worst tragedy in crypto is: using money earned from big coin to pay tuition for altcoins. $BTC $SOL $BTC $ETH $USELESS The volume of coins on today's gainers list is generally low. The main reason is that most of the listed tokens are small-cap altcoins and Meme coins with very thin order book depth. These types of coins don't require huge funds; a small number of buy orders can quickly push the price up by seven to eight percent, which is completely different from large-cap coins like BTC and ETH.
Many of the rallies are not driven by large inflows of new funds but are more passive buying triggered by short stop-losses, resulting in a pulse-like market. The exchange's gainers list sorts only by percentage increase, naturally filtering out low-liquidity small coins, while large-cap coins with small fluctuations rarely make the list.
Just like the USELESS I hold, this rebound is a volume-shrinking recovery without a large amount of new funds taking over. This kind of market rises quickly but lacks support; after the heat fades, the decline is equally rapid. It is only suitable as a window to reduce losses, not as a trend reversal.13 days into this short, and instead of crashing, the market is slowly testing my patience. $BTC is still around $84K, $ETH near $2.68K, and my short positions remain stuck in limbo. The plan was to hold for 2–4 weeks, but the market keeps refusing to break down. Even with high Treasury yields and plenty of bearish headlines, PCE gave buyers another boost. Now NFP is next. Will weak data trigger another drop, or will the market once again turn bad news into a bullish reaction? No more adding. JWaiting for Nonfarm Payrolls
The Federal Reserve is caught in the middle. Price pressures have indeed eased a bit, and the core PCE decline makes the market think a rate hike in October is unlikely. Goldman Sachs has even postponed rate hikes until the end of the year. But the labor market is not convinced; once ADP data came out, resilience remains, and Kashkari continues to hawkishly signal that the door for another hike this year is still open. Inflation gives hope, employment holds it back, no one dares to move first, so everyone waits for the Nonfarm Payrolls.
The crypto market is similarly stuck. BTC's upward momentum is weak, and its pullbacks find support, oscillating at high levels with no one daring to take heavy positions before the data. ETH's decline is limited, and so is its rise; ETF and upgrade expectations support it, but it can't break out into an independent trend. SOL rose too fast earlier, and this round of pullback is also quick; first, watch for support. OKB's volatility is small, suitable for long-term holding, but no short-term highlights. XRP still follows declines but not rises, lacking catalysts for improvement.
Now both bulls and bears are waiting. Inflation easing is good news, but strong employment is a constraint. Without Nonfarm Payrolls data, any directional guess is half likely to be wrong. Rather than taking sides early, it's better to wait for the data to land and sentiment to digest, then see how BTC chooses. Take light positions and follow the trend.
#加息预期推迟，9月非农成下一关键 $ETH $BTC It's the 14th day of shorting the grid, and I'm starting to doubt my own judgment,
feeling a bit mentally exhausted!
I've held the position for almost two weeks. The price has never returned to the cost line. Last time, bad news suddenly turned into good news, and at midnight today, there was no good news, yet Bitcoin pulled from 83,000 to nearly 85,000.
The most frustrating thing is not just losing money, but the repeated tug-of-war of "it looks like it's going to drop but it just won't." BTC and ETH have failed to break resistance several times; according to previous logic, there should have been a pullback by now, but each time it bounces back. Bad news fully priced in turns into good news, PCE below expectations spikes then falls back, non-farm payrolls haven't come yet, and I'm already getting anxious.
Three grids, and I'm floating at a loss again!!
Tonight is the non-farm payrolls. I know I shouldn't predict the direction, but I can't help thinking:
If the data is weak, will I be forced to hold again?
If the data is strong, will it give me a breather?
Will bad news turn into good news again?
Will bad news be fully priced in again, and then the price won't fall?
Are there any brothers holding positions like me? How long have you been holding? What are your thoughts now?
$BTC $ETH $SOL $ETH ETH is currently around $2,705, having reached a 24-hour high of $2,722 before pulling back, with short-term pressure repeatedly near $2,720. The mid-term structure has been somewhat recovering since the rebound in September, but ETFs have recently seen net outflows again, causing fluctuations in capital flow. Key resistance above is at $2,720-$2,750; only if volume increases and it stabilizes there will there be a chance to challenge $2,850-$3,000. On the downside, support is first seen at $2,650-$2,660; if broken, a retest of $2,550-$2,600 is possible. Current volatility is relatively low, and the trend has not yet confirmed a strengthening. In the short term, it is more suitable to observe key levels and capital flow changes rather than chasing longs based solely on rebounds. Today's market situation actually makes me feel quite comfortable. ZEC is currently around $1,435, after previously surging to $1,493 and then starting to pull back. The 24-hour decline looks minimal, but what really deserves attention is not how much it has fallen, but that the upward momentum is changing. Short-term indicators have begun to cool down: RSI6 has fallen back to around 48.6, dropping from a high level into a neutral zone, and short-term buying is clearly not as active as in the past few days. MACD's DIF is still above DEA, but the bullish bars have noticeably shortened. If a death cross occurs later, short-term corrections may further expand. The J value of KDJ has also turned down from a high point. So now it looks more like: the price hasn't truly broken down, but the upward momentum has started to weaken. Of course, ZEC's recent fundamentals cannot be completely ignored. Recently, large addresses have still been seen transferring ZEC out of exchanges on-chain; on September 30, there was a transfer of about 2,000 ZEC, worth approximately $2.8 million, withdrawn from Binance and consolidated into one address. At the same time, Zcash-related ETF funds have also experienced phased outflows. This means the market is not simply "no one wants ZEC" right now, but rather: some are accumulating while others are reducing positions, and short-term bulls and bears are being re-priced. Looking at the broader market again, the strong streak of BTC spot ETF net inflows lasting 9 consecutive days, totaling about $3.1 billion, has ended, with the latest single-day reversal$FIL, what a joke, the halving is about to happen, don't blame the knife for being sharp
The halving countdown is about ten days, and FIL is still playing dead. It neither falls nor rises, moving sideways like a flatline on an ECG. Who is this show for?
Don't treat the halving like a resurrection. Every halving in the crypto world gets hyped in advance. Expectations shout bullish every day, but when the day comes, fireworks go off, people scatter, and only chips remain on the ground. Good news turns into bad news, an old script, just with a new batch of believers each time.
Look at the miners: some run, some shut down, but they still hold inventory. On-chain chips are as chaotic as a night market—bottom-fishers, position fillers, stubborn holders, layer upon layer. I just ask: who will pull it up? Faith? Calls from group friends?
This sideways movement now doesn’t look like building momentum, more like fishing. Fishing for that phrase “it must rise after halving.” When it really lands, it might not take off but trigger a waterfall. Is there a safety net below? I doubt it.
Don’t rush, let the bullets fly for a few days. $FIL at this position looks more and more like a bull trap. Not advising you to trade, profits and losses are on you, I just feel—this play is about to reach its climax.$BERA Damn it! This $BERA chart is giving me a headache. At 0.2392, it's purely a capital game with no fundamental support at all. The manipulative whales are calling each other idiots inside, playing with sharp spikes up and down, and retail investors just can't hold on—they're all shaken out by the washouts.
Looking at the K-line, the rebound volume is shrinking sharply, and the resistance around 0.245 is tight as hell. This is a classic bull trap. No matter what others shout, I only trust the short side in this setup.
Trading plan: Short directly around the current price of 0.2392, stop loss at 0.2485, first target at 0.2250, and if that breaks, then look for 0.2180.
Don't say I didn't warn you, this trade goes against the sentiment, so control your position size strictly. Brothers who want to follow, check the market card below and analyze the chart yourself—don't come asking me later why I didn't lead you.
👇👇👇U.S. stocks closed slightly higher on Thursday: the S&P 500 rose 0.19% to 7666 points, the Nasdaq was basically flat, and the Dow Jones edged up. The market rallied during the session but gave back some gains by the close — the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield ended at 5.24%, not far from the high of 5.34%. The real big mover was oil: WTI rose 2.75% approaching $93, and gold also touched $4208. The market is trading a tricky combination: the cooling August PCE gave stocks a breather, but as oil prices rise, inflation expectations can't be suppressed. To put it plainly: before the rate decision at the end of the month, the steering wheel is not in the hands of the stock market, but in the hands of long-term yields and oil prices; tonight's nonfarm payrolls report is the next referee.Currently, according to official Ethereum data, the network staking APR is only about 2.6%, which is clearly lower than the 3%–4% that many people might expect. In other words, if your sole purpose for buying ETH is to earn this staking yield, it’s easy to question: why not just invest in money market funds or other low-volatility income products? After all, ETH itself is subject to price volatility. Assuming ETH staking earns 2.6% annually, but the coin price drops 20% during the same period, that staking yield is quickly wiped out by price fluctuations. The staking yield itself does not turn ETH into a traditional "risk-free interest asset." Therefore, I actually think the logic for understanding ETH should be viewed from a different angle: staking yield is just an additional benefit of holding ETH, not the core reason to buy ETH. What truly supports ETH’s long-term value is Ethereum’s own ecosystem—DeFi, stablecoins, L2 solutions, on-chain settlements, RWA, and the network’s future demand for ETH. The significance of staking is to allow long-term holders to participate in network security while also earning some protocol-level rewards. Ethereum’s official stance clearly defines staking as part of the network consensus and security mechanism, not merely a "financial product." Even more interestingly, by 2026, the US market has already started to$XCH minimum setup is a Raspberry Pi 4 with 4 GB RAM for CLI farming, or 8 GB for GUI farming. (This guide will show how to set up a GUI farm.) Many farmers choose Pi because it consumes very little power.
Plotting, on the other hand, is resource-intensive. Fortunately, once a plot is created, it can be farmed for years. A Pi can be used for plotting, but the speed will be quite slow. The same goes for laptops. In the long run, these are not very good options.
However, for creating your first plot, it’s a good idea to use the device you already have. Once you get a feel for Chia farming, you’ll have a better idea of what to buy later.
Plot storage
For this guide, we will create a single plot. This will require:
4 GB of available memory
If you don’t have that much, Linux swap space can be used, but it will be slow
275 GB of temporary storage space
Hard drives can work, but will be slow
Solid-state drives are much faster; a good choice for this tutorial
RAM is the fastest option (minimum for RAM plotting is 256 GB; if you don’t have that much, don’t worry for now)
108.8 GB of free space for the plot to reside
Solid-state drives can work but are overkill
The vast majority of plots are stored on HDDs
A laptop or desktop with 400 GB of available space will meet these requirements. Micron's earnings report led to a roughly 3% rise to 1097, with customer commitments raised from 22 billion to 32 billion. I'm observing first and not chasing.
Here's what I saw: Q4 revenue about 54.2 billion, non-GAAP EPS about 33.4, next quarter guidance revenue about 61.5 billion, EPS about 38.2, all clearly above market expectations.
Strategic customer agreement amount about 32 billion (mostly deposits), gross margin still around 87%, the AI premium in storage won't ease anytime soon.
The market opened around 1054, dropped to about 1023 during the session, then pulled back to about 1097, with a high near 1099, volume about 44.76 million, quite volatile.
Simply put: the performance is really strong, but the price has already priced in the super cycle, chasing higher is like buying into others' realized emotions, don't mistake the earnings celebration for a free lunch.
I think in the short term, don't treat the beat as a buy signal; first see if it can hold today's high area before deciding whether to follow.
What I do: just observe, no chase.
If it breaks below today's low around 1023, continue down; or if it reclaims about 1099 with a strong move, then consider chasing.
Are you waiting for a pullback confirmation before acting, or do you think the guidance is strong enough to jump in directly?

#Rate hike expectations delayed, September nonfarm payrolls become the next focus #US Treasury yields frequently hitting new highs, long-term rate pressure not easingThe PCE data received by the market this time is indeed somewhat bullish. Core PCE for August fell to 3.0% year-on-year, with a month-on-month increase of only 0.2%; overall PCE was 3.4% year-on-year, both figures below market expectations. After the data release, market bets on further rate hikes in October clearly cooled down, and risk assets were temporarily boosted. But the problem is: improved expectations for rate cuts do not mean funds will immediately flow back into BTC. What truly suppresses the market is the US Treasury yields. Recently, the 10-year US Treasury yield has hovered around 5.2%, while the 30-year yield once broke through 5.6%, reaching the highest level since 2002. In other words, even though inflation data has given the Federal Reserve some breathing room, the bond market is still telling investors that the long-term cost of capital is not low. Meanwhile, geopolitical tensions have added fuel to inflation expectations. The ongoing US-Iran tensions continue to affect transport through the Strait of Hormuz, with Brent crude oil recently breaking above $100 per barrel. Rising oil prices mean future inflationary pressures may rise again. High oil prices plus high long-term bond yields—these two forces simultaneously suppress high-volatility risk assets. So BTC now seems to be experiencing a "tug of war" between bulls and bears: PCE cooling → rate hike expectations decline → bullish for BTC But high US Treasury yields → rising opportunity cost of capital → suppress BTC valuation Rising oil prices → inflation concerns intensify → further limit rate cut space Regarding ETF funds, the previous continuous inflows have indeed supported BTC, but the latest data#Interest rate hike expectations delayed, September non-farm payrolls become the next key
#US Treasury yields frequently hit new highs, long-term interest rate pressure remains unresolved
#Bitcoin ETF inflows continue for 9 consecutive days, ETH outflows
Initial jobless claims in the US dropped to 197,000, below the expected 200,000, staying under 200,000 for three consecutive weeks, while continuing claims fell to 1.7 million, the lowest since March 2023. The labor market is as tough as a rock.
Once this data came out, the market was stunned. Originally, it was hoped that cooling employment would give the Federal Reserve a reason to cut rates, but companies verbally express pressure while being reluctant to lay off employees. Rate cut expectations have been dampened again.
For the crypto space, the logic is straightforward: strong employment → consumption and wages hold up → inflation pressure could rebound at any time → the Federal Reserve dares not cut rates easily. Goldman Sachs has long "surrendered," abandoning rate cut predictions for this year and even doubling the probability of a rate hike to 20%. If rate hike expectations combine with soaring US Treasury yields, tightening liquidity will hit high-beta assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum first.
Currently, $BTC is struggling around $84,000, $ETH is under pressure below $2,700, and after continuous ETF inflows, there was also a single-day net outflow of $149 million. The crypto market doesn't want to go independent; the macro faucet hasn't been turned on yet. Don't rush to bottom-fish; wait for the day the Federal Reserve truly eases."Bottom grinding is not a crash, buy on dips"
The greed index has retreated to 71, the long-short ratio is 1.40, retail investors remain bullish, but the market is uncooperative. ETH slid from 2748 to 2664, BTC slowly declined from 85100 to 83050, like frogs being boiled in warm water during the day. Nasdaq futures fell 0.35%, with no external support.
On the 4-hour chart, ETH fell from 2806, stuck below the Bollinger middle band at 2697 and above the lower band at 2658, still a pullback after a rise, structure intact. BTC is weaker, dropping from 87385 to 83055, close to the Bollinger lower band at 83366.
On the 1-hour chart, ETH's KDJ dropped to 18, clearly oversold, like a compressed spring ready to rebound anytime; but the 2690 middle band is a threshold. BTC's KDJ is only 29, not extreme yet, there is still room for imagination below 82600. Currently, it is a "can't fall further, can't rally" bottom grinding.
Strategy: Buy on dips, do not chase. Try buying BTC in the 82300-82600 range, target 83400-83900; try buying ETH in the 2630-2650 range, target 2680-2700. Light positions, wait for confirmation. For reference only, pay attention to risk control.

#10月加息预期回落，今晚PCE成关键
#美债30年期收益率突破5.6%，创2002年来新高
#财报观察员：美光上调指引，存储需求继续走强 I've seen ETF wallets selling coins many times.
VanEck's ETF wallet sold $10.76 million through Gemini, including 45.41 $BTC and 2,570 $ETH.
Don't panic yet; this is not big news.
ETF wallets adjusting positions, redeeming, or changing custody are routine operations. What really matters is not how much was sold this time, but whether there are continuous actions afterward.
I've been burned by this before—seeing institutional wallets transfer out and thinking they were dumping, but it was just a process, and the coin price still rose as expected.
Looking at this single transaction alone, $10.76 million is negligible in the $BTC and $ETH markets.
But if in the next few days the same wallet keeps transferring to exchanges, then you should be cautious.
It's too early to draw conclusions now.
If the money doesn't keep moving, don't scare yourself.

$BTC The increase in stablecoin turnover speed could indicate prosperity or capital flight.
Frequent transfers of the same batch of stablecoins within a short period can drive up on-chain settlement volume. This may stem from growth in trade, transactions, and payments, or from collateral adjustments, liquidations, and fund withdrawals during market panic. Therefore, high turnover cannot be directly equated with healthy adoption.
To determine the direction, one must see where the funds ultimately settle. If stablecoin balances, protocol liquidity, and independent users increase simultaneously, it indicates activity with retention; if balances quickly flow to exchanges or out of the ecosystem after a surge in transfers, it resembles defensive migration. Speed indicates tension level, while balances and usage reveal the outcome.
It is also necessary to exclude duplicate statistics caused by internal exchange aggregation and bridge splitting. A single user transfer may leave multiple stablecoin actions on-chain, inflating nominal settlement amounts. Comparing adjusted economic transfer amounts with original transfer amounts provides a more reliable judgment.
Truly healthy turnover should be accompanied by broader use cases and more stable balances, rather than sudden spikes only under pressure.
Fast money flow only proves that everyone is active; whether they stay to build or line up to leave depends on the destination.$ETH 🔥 ETH 2,704: The triangle tip is squeezed to the nose tip, 2,700 is the fuse, 2,738 is the explosive
24h range is only 2,673–2,722, a 50-dollar high-low, moving averages tangled together—a typical "end convergence, deep breath before the breakout."
The structure is summarized in one sentence:
2,700 = hourly close above = bull start signal, targets 2,738 → 2,800 → 2,950
2,738 = 9.30 high/supply wall, touched but not held = false breakout
2,640 = flagpole critical point, close below = structure dead, heading to 2,450–2,300
2,600 = strong support line, if broken don’t call it a fake season anymore
Capital flow twists:
On 9.29 ETH ETF slightly outflowed 2.81 million ending 7-day inflow, on 9.30 outflowed 5,621 ETH (about 15.31 million), but weekly still +95,500 ETH; whales added 60,000 ETH in the same period.
=> Institutions stopped buying at month-end, whales quietly picked up: it’s not that there’s no buying, the buying is waiting for non-farm payroll/yield signals.
BTC 84.6K playing dead, ETH 2704 biting the line.
Sideways to the end is not cowardice, it’s "the fuse has burned out."
Hourly close above 2700+ with volume = follow the bulls; touch 2738 with shrinking volume = run; break 2640 = don’t trust any breakout posts.

I will focus on these 4: ETH, SOL, HYPE, ZEC. ① ETH: Watch if $2,750 can become support again. ETH is currently fluctuating around $2,700. If BTC stabilizes and ETH breaks through $2,750 with volume, then the next area to watch is $2,820–$2,900. But if BTC moves above $85K and ETH still can’t hold above $2,750, then don’t rush; it means the capital rotation hasn’t truly transmitted to ETH yet. Also, the overall fund performance of the ETH spot ETF in September is still good, but on September 30th there was about $59.6M net outflow, so short-term we need to observe if funds can flow back. ② SOL: $120 is the short-term watershed. SOL is currently around $119. The real point to watch is not the $1 rise from $119 to $120, but whether it can effectively hold above $120. If it breaks through and holds $120, the next target is $124–$128, and in a strong scenario, watch $130. Previously, the SOL ETF recorded a single-day high of about $86.7M in inflows.【ETH rose 70% in three months, but now is the hardest time】
$ETH surged 70.9% in Q3, climbing from around $1570 to $2700, outperforming BTC by a wide margin.
But when you break down the numbers, the story isn’t that simple. The US spot ETH ETF saw a net inflow of nearly $3 billion in Q3, but on September 30, there was a sudden net outflow of $59.6 million. Currently, ETF holdings are about 5.91 million ETH, accounting for 4.84% of the circulating supply.
So this rally is indeed backed by real money, but the market has already priced in a large portion of institutional demand in advance. For ETH to continue replicating a 70% quarterly gain after rising from $1570 to $2700, the difficulty will definitely increase.
What I’m more concerned about now is whether new spot buying can appear above $2700. If ETF volume picks up again and ETH breaks previous highs, the market still has room to run; but if the price keeps grinding higher while ETFs start to see continuous outflows, that 70% performance might turn into a "good news already priced in" scenario.I'm speechless, woke up early to find $XDP has dropped back to the starting point.
I entered just to try to catch the main force's trading rhythm. The account had considerable floating profits overnight, and I originally planned to exit at the right time to secure this profit steadily.
Unfortunately, after repeated fluctuations overnight, the previous gains gradually evaporated, and the market fell back near the entry price. After some consideration, I chose to stop loss and exit directly. I've only been trading for two weeks but have experienced this situation several times. Small-cap coins are inherently unpredictable overnight, and betting based solely on subjective feelings easily wastes the floating profits you had.
Although this loss isn't large, seeing all the original profits vanish is inevitably disappointing. It also serves as a reminder to myself not to trade impulsively anymore and to make proper trading plans.
$BTC $ETH Yesterday's Cryptocurrency Market Summary (Planet Post | Market Volume Observation) 【This ID's Viewpoint】 Yesterday's market main theme: The core trading logic focused on the delay of interest rate hike expectations, with the September non-farm payroll becoming the biggest market decisive factor ahead. After a slight cooling of the PCE, the market did not directly price in easing but left the suspense to the non-farm payroll; U.S. long-term Treasury yields fluctuated at high levels, suppressing the upward space for crypto assets. The market showed characteristics of pulse rebounds and rallies followed by pullbacks, with funds mainly engaging in short-term speculation and no large-scale trend capital entering. Do not be fooled by single-day rebounds in the short term; it is still a data-driven macro market, and the quality of the non-farm payroll data will directly rewrite interest rate pricing and the major BTC central trend direction. 1. Macro Information Core PCE data slightly declined, and the market priced the probability of the Federal Reserve maintaining rates unchanged at the October FOMC meeting up to 64%, pushing back rate hike expectations, with December rate hike probability being repriced. U.S. long-term Treasury yields remain high, and the dollar index is tugging back and forth. Federal Reserve officials continue hawkish remarks, emphasizing that inflation decline is still insufficient, and employment resilience remains the biggest risk point, unanimously focusing on the upcoming September non-farm payroll report. The market consensus expects about 90,000 new non-farm jobs in September. If the data significantly exceeds expectations, it will reignite rate hike expectations, pushing U.S. Treasury yields higher and pressuring BTC and gold; if significantly below expectations, it will further delay rate hike expectations, providing a recovery window for risk assets; neutral data will likely maintain the current oscillation pattern. On October 1, the U.S. SEC released a proposal to relax rules on investment companies' custody of crypto assets, allowing investment managersHistorical data shows that Bitcoin indeed tends to have significant positive returns in October. From 2010 to 2024, the monthly returns in October were almost all positive—except for 2014 and 2018. More notably, October in 2017, 2021, and 2023 all started or continued substantial rallies, with gains of +46%, +41%, and +29%, respectively.
The context for 2026 is somewhat different: the market is currently still in extreme fear territory, with Bitcoin prices hovering around $58,000-$60,000. However, historically, October rebounds often occur at times when market sentiment is similarly pessimistic. If historical patterns hold, $60,000 could be a key watershed for this cycle.80u challenge 1000u

Oil and US bonds have both skyrocketed $ZEC
The veteran of the privacy sector couldn't hold up this morning either, retreating by 6.03%.
ZEC price is 1337, with a trading volume of 1.97 billion USD still ranking high, but the money stepping in is clearly less.
The 1300 line is lost, so don't rush the rebound. $ZEC
$ZEC ZEC initially fell from nearly $1,700 and is currently fluctuating around $1,400. Many are still waiting for $2,000, but judging from capital flows and market performance, short-term pressure has clearly increased. Previously, there were large sell orders in the market: a whale placed a sell order of about 15,000 ZEC, and another address transferred and sold about 25,000 ZEC, indicating increasing profit-taking at high levels. After a rapid price rise, such capital realization is not uncommon, but it also means the selling pressure above needs time to be absorbed. ETF funds have also shown signs of cooling down. Grayscale ZCSH had continuously attracted capital attention before, but recently there was a single-day net outflow of about $30M. After capital shifted from inflow to outflow, ZEC will need new buying support to maintain strength. The macro environment is also worth noting. Early October's non-farm payroll and inflation data remain core market variables. The US long-term Treasury yields remain high, putting pressure on high-volatility risk assets. If economic data reinforce high interest rate expectations again, assets like ZEC with high volatility may be affected first. From a technical perspective, the area around $1,400 has become a short-term battleground between bulls and bears: 🔸 Upper resistance: $1,460 → $1,500 🔸 Key support: $1,400 → $1,355 🔸 If $1,355 breaks: next focus is $1,300 🔸 If it stabilizes above $1,500 again: then it is more worth watching $XCH Farming Beginner's Guide
So, you want to become a Chia farmer? You've come to the right place!
At first, Chia plotting and farming may seem daunting, but it's a relatively simple process:
Get the hardware
Install Chia
Run and configure Chia
Create a plot
Start farming
This guide will walk you through each of these steps. We will build a Chia farm, including syncing a full node and creating your first plot. This will take anywhere from an hour to several days, depending on many factors. But don't worry—most of the time you won't need to keep your computer active.
Information
This guide intentionally downplays technical details. It is only meant to help new users set up a basic farm, preferably using equipment they already have. Subsequent pages on this site will cover the concepts introduced in this guide in more detail.
Ready? Let's get started! Dogecoin has no total supply cap, and it has worn this "flaw" hat for more than a decade. Looking at it from another perspective, this is precisely its survival design.
Other assets tell stories based on scarcity, but Dogecoin tells a different one: a fixed annual increase of about five billion coins, neither more nor less. The total supply grows, but the issuance rate dilutes year by year; the first few years see dilution, and after ten years, it becomes just a trickle. Holders don't have to worry about flooding or about incentives drying up.
Miners are the beneficiaries. The fixed new rewards mean those maintaining the network always have wages, and bookkeeping never becomes unprofitable over time. The security of a chain relies on a group of people continuously investing electricity and equipment, and Dogecoin buys this loyalty with uninterrupted output.
The mechanism also changes the coin's temperament. Things destined to increase have no meaning to hoard; spending is the right way. So it circulates within the community: tipping, pooling funds, paying bills. Only spent coins have vitality; those lying in wallets are just numbers.
Textbooks say money is precious because of scarcity, but $DOGE refuses that. It uses continuous issuance to remind the market: money is made to be spent. #加息预期推迟，9月非农成下一关键 #比特币ETF连续9日流入，ETH转流出 #美债收益率频创新高，长期利率压力未缓解 $ZEC taught me a lesson again this round……
Long at 1348, 50x leverage.
When I entered, I thought:
1305 already had a drop, there was a rebound around 1340, it should be able to push up again.
But as soon as I got in at 1348, it went straight back down to 1341.
7 points don’t seem like much, but with 50x leverage, my account started hurting immediately 😂
Now the biggest dilemma isn’t whether it will rise or not,
but—
Should I wait for it to rebound, or admit the mistake and stop loss?
1378 was today’s opening price,
1305 is the low point,
and it pulled back a bit around 1340.
If it can get back above 1355, there might still be a chance to reach 1378;
but if it can’t hold 1340, then the previous low at 1305 will come back into focus.
This time I really realized:
50x leverage doesn’t make you earn fast, it makes you hurt fast when you’re wrong.
Now let’s see how $ZEC moves next.
Anyone else trading $ZEC?
Do you think it will go to 1355 first, or drop back to 1305?
Leave your thoughts in the comments and let’s see who can guess this move right.After playing with $BTC $ZEC $ETH for a long time, you realize that a crash is never the most painful part. What truly wears down your patience and breaks your mindset is the endless sideways trading. During a big drop, it's actually simpler: panic, stop loss, lie flat—once the cut is made, the dust settles, and the pain is brief and straightforward. But sideways trading is different; it's like boiling a frog in warm water—no drastic ups or downs, yet it constantly drains your emotions and resolve. When the market doesn't move and your account neither gains nor loses, that's the most agonizing state. Watching the price oscillate by a few cents repeatedly, your position feels tasteless to hold yet too precious to abandon. Hold on, but it stubbornly refuses to break out; every day you watch time slip away, anxiety grows heavier. Sell, but fear that right after you exit, the price will surge—missing out is even more frustrating than being stuck. The deadliest aspect of sideways trading is never the loss itself, but the internal drain caused by uncertainty. Messages in the community rise and fall; some say a breakout is imminent, others say the market will be crushed further. Watching others' coins fluctuate and gain small profits while your own holdings remain stagnant. Restlessness, anxiety, and self-doubt follow one after another; the trading discipline you originally set slowly collapses under the daily erosion of sideways trading. Many losses are not due to the market itself but due to the agitation caused by sideways movement. Unable to endure the boredom, you start frequent operations, repeatedly doing T trades and switching positions often, causing your originally good chips to be washed away. Unable to resist luck, you blindly add positions to bet on a breakout, turning your spot holdings into pressure orders. When the real trend finally arrives, your capital is gone, your mindset shattered, and you can no longer seize the opportunity.U.S. Treasury yields press down, crypto market holds its breath
Last night, PCE inflation seemed to ease, and $BTC took advantage to touch $85,500, but the momentum didn’t hold, quickly falling back to the $83,000–$84,000 range. It rose fast and fell fast; the market feels like it’s being held down by an invisible hand.
The real tightening spell is the U.S. Treasury. The 10-year yield remains near 5.3%, a multi-year high. With government bonds offering a risk-free return of over 5%, non-yielding assets like $BTC instantly lose appeal. Which institution dares to chase highs blindly?
Strangely, ETFs are still buying. Bitcoin ETFs have seen net inflows for nine consecutive days totaling about $3.1 billion; buying hasn’t stopped. But on the other side, profit-taking is waiting for an opportunity, and high yields are draining liquidity. These two forces hedge each other, so the price can only tug back and forth between $83,000 and $85,000. $ETH has even turned to outflows, and $SOL is struggling to stay unaffected.
Sentiment isn’t pessimistic; the fear and greed index remains in the “greed” zone at 73–74. To break the deadlock, we need to watch employment data closely—only if Treasury yields ease can the crypto market truly lift its head.
#加息预期推迟，9月非农成下一关键 #比特币ETF连续9日流入，ETH转流出 #美债收益率频创新高，长期利率压力未缓解 💥💥💥💥💥【Must Watch Today】October 2: Summary of Important Information Today:
$NEAR Intents experienced a security incident due to a contract vulnerability when interacting with Omni's deposit and withdrawal infrastructure, with preliminary losses of about 3.8 million USD. The team stated the vulnerability has been fixed and promised full compensation; services were temporarily suspended, and some chain deposits and withdrawals were restricted.
The project team said they will report the case and track the funds; social media raised doubts about its security and degree of centralization. Reports show NEAR briefly dropped over 8%.
$HYPE Yesterday, 20,210 HYPE were repurchased and burned at a volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of 89.05 USD, worth about 1.8 million USD. So far, Hyperliquid has burned a total of 49.09 million HYPE, worth about 4.29 billion USD, equivalent to 4.91% of the maximum supply. Income over the past 30 days was 55.89 million USD.
$ETH Still waiting for its biggest bullish signal.
2017: ISM broke above 56, then ETH rose from 10 USD to 1,400 USD.
2020 to 2021: ISM broke above 56, then ETH rose from 88 USD to 4,800 USD.
Today, ISM reports 54.5, slightly below the expected 54.8 and previous 54.6. Waiting for a breakout! If BTC holds steady at $85,000 today, I won't chase BTC; I'll immediately look at these 4 coins.
I'll directly focus on these 4: ETH, SOL, HYPE, ZEC
If BTC really stabilizes again at 85,000, my first reaction definitely won't be to chase BTC, because BTC has already gained some ground from around 83,000 to 85,000. Secondly, I myself have also opened long positions.
ETH:
$ETH is fluctuating around 2700. After BTC holds at 85,000, if ETH breaks through 2750, it can continue to target 2800–2900; if BTC rises but ETH can't even hold 2750, just wait and see.
SOL:
SOL is around 118 to 119. After breaking 120, it can target 125–130. When real rotation happens, it usually won't just rise by 1%.
HYPE:
$HYPE has been relatively strong recently, approaching $89. When BTC breaks through, if HYPE holds above 90, it may continue an independent rally.
ZEC:
$ZEC first needs to see if it can turn strong; currently, ZEC is relatively weak compared to BTC and ETH. After BTC holds above 85,000, no rush to bottom-fish; focus on whether it can shift from weakness to leading gains. If capital starts to spread out, high-volatility coins may see opportunities.
BTC is responsible for confirming the market trend. As for whether to chase BTC? I’m more interested in seeing who in the back row hasn’t gotten on board yet. The third culprit: 1359, the starting point of a "domino effect"
Look at the liquidation data, this is the bloodiest part.
Monitoring by TradingBeats shows: ZEC's recent long liquidation line is at $1359.45, corresponding to about $17.45 million in long positions. When ZEC dropped to 1388, this liquidation line was only 2.1% away from the current price.
Think about what this means.
When the price falls near 1359, $17.45 million worth of longs will be automatically forced to close. These liquidations are "sell orders." Selling pushes the price down, triggering more long liquidations.
And below that, there is an even bigger trap. The $1200-$1225 range also accumulates dense long liquidation positions.
From 1305 to 1200, there is an 8% space. From 1305 to 1254 (200-period EMA), there is a 4% space. From 1305 to just above 1359, there is only a 4% space. $ZEC $BTC $ETH #加息预期推迟，9月非农成下一关键 #比特币ETF连续9日流入，ETH转流出 #美债收益率频创新高，长期利率压力未缓解 Currently, most of Auntie's short positions are on the left side and still have positions that can withstand pressure. Intuitively, the market hasn't fully pulled back yet. The most certain signal is to short after breaking below and stabilizing. Otherwise, small long positions are currently the best option.The market has currently entered a short-term consolidation phase. $BTC is fluctuating around $84,000, $ETH has returned to around $2,700, and $SOL is hovering in the $118–$120 range. Prices have not yet broken through further, but what truly matters is not whether it "falls or not," but whether there will be sustained capital willing to take over subsequently. Recent capital flows have also shown some changes. US crypto ETFs have recently continued to see inflows, with BTC-related products maintaining strong capital attraction, but ETH capital performance has started to diverge, and the overall market net inflow scale has noticeably slowed compared to earlier periods. Capital has not completely withdrawn; it has just shifted from rapid accumulation to a more cautious wait-and-see mode. Next, focus on three signals: ① BTC: First hold the key range BTC remains the directional anchor for the entire market. If it can sustain above around $84,000 and re-challenge the $85,000–$86,000 range, there is room for further improvement in market risk appetite; conversely, if it falls back below $82,500–$83,000, short-term pressure may increase again. ② ETH: Watch the battle at $2,700 ETH's current core task is not simply to rebound but to turn $2,700 from resistance into support. If volume expands simultaneously, the $2,750–$2,800 range can be further observed. ③ SOL: Volume determines rebound quality SOL is still near the $118–$120 areaMorning recap
Another typical morning of half heaven, half hell.
$HYPE nailed the trend here, 20x long positions steadily profiting, smart money whales holding strong long positions, average entry around 81, now price stands above 87, many whales still in profit, trend sentiment is on point, unrealized gain +2086, which basically supports the account's confidence.
In contrast, $BICO is a bloody lesson.
Clearly, whales holding long positions are largely underwater, average entry at 0.02318, price directly dropped to 0.0222, I went all in with 8x leverage long, got deeply trapped, unrealized loss -1286. Even though I saw the longs under pressure, I couldn't resist bottom-fishing against the trend, betting on a rebound, which almost wiped out the profits made from HYPE.
Looking at smart money data is even more painful:
HYPE: 887 whales long, mostly profitable; 455 shorts mostly losing, long power dominates
$BICO: 246 whales long are holding losses, only 151 shorts profitable, indicating big money is buried, yet I rushed in to catch the falling knife
Insight:
The market never rises just because it has fallen a lot. Following the trend may not always yield big profits, but going against it can instantly wipe out all previous gains. Next plan: hold the trend with HYPE, protect unrealized gains; with BICO, no more random averaging down, strictly set a bottom line, cannot let one counter-trend trade ruin the overall rhythm.

OKX #SOL #DollarCostAveragingCheckIn #EarnCoins #CreatorIncentives $BTC FinancialThinking #比特币ETF连续9日流入，ETH转流出 Green Hair Brother: How did I manage to lose more than ten trades in a row? 😓 Brothers, once trading gets emotional, it’s really easy to get more and more chaotic. After losing one trade, you think about making it back on the next one; after losing several times in a row, you can’t help but add positions and trade frequently, eventually turning normal trading into a battle against the market. But remember: losses are real money, not game coins. The market isn’t at a point where you can just rush in casually. BTC is currently fluctuating around $84,000, ETH is hovering around $2,700, and ZEC’s volatility has significantly increased. The PCE data hasn’t further raised inflation concerns for now, but the market’s attention has shifted to the US September nonfarm payroll data, which may continue to influence the Fed’s future rate expectations. Meanwhile, long-term US Treasury yields remain high, and liquidity pressure hasn’t completely disappeared. Regarding ETF funds, BTC has seen continuous inflows for many days, but ETH’s fund performance has started to diverge, indicating institutional funds are not fully chasing risk assets. So the most important thing now is not "you must open a trade," but to control trading frequency, reduce emotional impact, and wait for the market to give a clearer direction. When losing continuously, pausing isn’t necessarily admitting defeat; it might actually be protecting your principal. The worst thing in trading isn’t making one mistake, but not being able to stop after making a mistake. 😓 #BTC #ETH #ZEC #BitcoinETF #Nonfarm #Fed #USTreasuryYields #CryptoMarket The dense sell wall near $BTC spot 85000 has already been eaten up, with an intraday high reaching 85266. However, the market is too thin during the holiday, so this kind of upward liquidity sweep is really hard to confirm as a one-sided trend. On the hourly level, it has returned above the 84167 midline, and the short moving averages are also diverging upwards. But after the breakout, whether the spot active buying can continue to follow up is the key. If it can't keep up, the high position can easily become a place where bullish liquidity is slowly consumed.
First look at the range from 85266 to 85650 above. If the price enters this range and volume increases but it can't push higher, beware of liquidity pullback after a false breakout. For bulls to maintain strength, the pullback must hold the moving average support zone between 84000 and 84200. If this is lost, the first buffer below will retreat to around 83300.
On the macro side, US long-term Treasury yields are still rising, and the non-farm payrolls are about to be released, so funds are currently more defensive. The 82500 level below is the lifeline of the entire consolidation structure. As long as bulls hold this dense stop-loss zone, the logic of bottom accumulation and support remains. But if external liquidity continues to tighten and the price effectively breaks below 82500, this wave of resistance rebound will basically be broken apart. $ETH $ZEC
#加息预期推迟，9月非农成下一关键 #美债收益率频创新高，长期利率压力未缓解 Today I checked the long-term positions on Bitcoin and have already gained 2000 points. The direction will be decided by tonight's Nonfarm Payrolls, so I closed all short-term positions. Briefly, here are the points I think you need to pay attention to when trading short-term tonight:
• Liquidity sweeps of false bearish/bullish traps: At the moment the data is released (20:30), the order book depth of CEX and on-chain perpetual contracts often instantly withdraws, and in the first few minutes, extreme fake moves can appear with spikes up and down wiping out liquidity pools on both ends. Avoid blindly chasing market orders during the first wave of the second-level candlestick sprint.
• Beware of divergence between hourly wages and unemployment rate: If "new job additions are high but unemployment rises," or "new job additions are weak but wage growth rebounds," algorithmic trading and market maker programs will battle back and forth, often causing violent wide-range oscillations in the market.
• Confirm trend at US stock market open: There is a one-hour buffer period between data release and US stock market open (21:30). The real movement of spot ETF funds usually becomes clearer about half an hour after the US market opens, and the direction confirmation and trend sustainability at that time are often better than at the moment the data is released.
