16 Fed Officials Expect Another Hike This Year: What The Dot Plot Just Revealed
The Fed did more than raise rates today. It told the market it is not done.
In the new Summary of Economic Projections released after the September 16 decision, 16 of 18 policymakers who submitted forecasts now expect at least one more quarter-point hike before the end of 2026. Only two see rates holding steady from here. That is a dramatic hawkish shift and the strongest signal yet that the first hike since July 2023 will not be the last.
1. The Dot Plot That Changed Everything
The vote to hike to 3.75%-4.00% was

$AVA AVAUSDT Forming Falling Wedge
AVAUSDT is forming a clear falling wedge pattern, a classic bullish reversal signal that often indicates an upcoming breakout. The price has been consolidating within a narrowing range, suggesting that selling pressure is weakening while buyers are beginning to regain control. With consistent volume confirming accumulation at lower levels, the setup hints at a potential bullish breakout soon. The projected move could lead to an impressive gain of around 40% to 50% once the price breaks above the wedge resistance.
This falling wedge pattern is typically seen a

Watching the market got so annoying that turning it off actually made things clearer; once my eyes stopped staring at it, my mind stopped panicking too.

A few days ago, I checked $HUMA before bed. The pullback held, buying pressure strengthened, and it signaled that longs could be taken. From 0.02133 to 0.02458, +371.6%—felt really good.

The timing was right.

Take some profits first: secure 80%, protect the remaining 20% at the entry price, and let the profits run if it keeps surging. Have a strategy before the session, discipline during the session, and reflection after the session.

$XAG LONG SETUP | 1H
A continuation opportunity is forming in the direction of the trend. Entry range: 65.58–65.67Stop loss: 65.19Targets: TP1 65.97 (0.77R) / TP2 66.33 (1.59R) / TP3 66.69 (2.41R)Partial take-profit: 30% / 30% / 40%Notes: This direction conflicts with the BTC 4H filter; the expected EV is -0.26R, below the current threshold. Status: Watchlist only—wait for confirmation before considering this setup.

I was feeling pretty down today, but opening my account made me feel a little better. At least staying up all night wasn’t for nothing.

First, let me make the plan clear: close 80% first, and protect the remaining 20% at breakeven. Even if it rebounds, don’t give the profits back.

I had my eye on $COOKIE during the repeated intraday swings. The resistance above was obvious, with no buyers on the way up. I shorted at 0.01111, and it’s now at 0.01006, +229.54%.

The market has a way of humbling everyone, especially the one who thinks they’re the smartest.

$DOGE
Don’t be fooled by the small gain—the volume is still there, grinding away. Dogecoin is currently around 0.081; the key is whether 0.080 holds. If it breaks below 0.0785, I’ll blacklist 😅 A slow rise gives you time to observe, but it wears you down. Quiet but with volume, genuine rotation—stronger than emotional fireworks 😉 Adjust according to the market, don’t write a script.

The most unusual detail in today’s market is that $EUR
’s 30 candlesticks had an amplitude of only 0.77%, yet generated 26.1M USDT in trading volume. Low volatility combined with high turnover indicates that tokens are changing hands frequently within an extremely narrow range. Both bulls and bears have repeatedly tested around 1.148, and neither side is willing to withdraw first. On the capital side, the Fear and Greed Index is 50, indicating neutral sentiment with no obvious chasing of longs or panic selling. This kind of stalemate is usually driven by futures capital.
Technically, MA5=1.148

$SOL is finally showing some strength on the weekly 👀
The downtrend line is broken, and price reclaimed the ~$96 area.
Now the big level I’m watching is $120.5.
If SOL clears that resistance and holds above it, the chart could open up toward the next major zone.
Structure is definitely getting interesting again. 🔥

RWA tokenization is starting to feel less like a narrative and more like an actual market.
Tokenized traditional assets, excluding stablecoins, have now passed $35B, roughly 3× higher than a year ago.
And honestly, the interesting part isn’t just the number.
It’s what the number represents.
Bonds, treasuries, credit, funds, commodities and other real-world assets are slowly moving onto blockchain rails. What used to require multiple intermediaries, paperwork and slow settlement can increasingly be represented and transferred onchain.
We’ve spent years talking about bringing the real world onto

$ZEC ‌ ‌ZEC Surges 23%: The Privacy Sector's Defiant Rally
The Federal Reserve's rate hike landed, and the crypto market rebounded broadly. But the most striking move came from an unexpected corner: the privacy sector. PayFi surged 5.03% in 24 hours, led by Zcash (ZEC), which jumped 23.28% to briefly hit a new all-time high of $1,385. Dash (DASH) followed with a 17.21% gain.
ZEC's rally wasn't solely a reaction to the Fed. A governance vote on the NU7 upgrade, announced the same day, added a second catalyst. The move also reflects a broader trend: privacy coins have climbed 213% since Bitcoin

$SPCX ‌Short-Term Volatility and the Long-Term Space Economy
SpaceX (SPCX) has experienced a volatile trajectory since its initial public offering (IPO) in June 2026. After debuting at an offering price of $135, the stock climbed to $161 on its first day before retreating to $104.84—dropping below the IPO price. Recently showing signs of recovery, SPCX is trading at $154.45, with a market capitalization of approximately $2.03 trillion. Morgan Stanley has reiterated its "buy" recommendation with a target price of $300; however, Goldman Sachs's target of $205 highlights the divergence in valuat

#Arc生态热门代币波动加剧 + #Gate广场中秋团圆局
With the launch of the Arc mainnet, it is crucial and analytically sound to distinguish between the price performance of the individual tokens within the ecosystem (ARGUS, LONG, COOL) and the network's own performance.
This phenomenon, frequently observed in crypto asset markets, clearly demonstrates a disconnect between fundamental network-level growth (L1/L2) and the speculative dynamics of assets issued on that network.
The sharp 12-hour declines seen in ARGUS, LONG, and COOL indicate that the ecosystem is currently subject to extremely high speculative volat
