Is the failure of the Clarity Act necessarily bad news for the crypto market?
A bill concerning the crypto regulatory framework that would have been a milestone for the crypto market was blocked and failed to pass last night. With the rate-hike decision also about to be announced, short-term sentiment was indeed significantly affected.
In fact, although $BTC and $ETH were affected, they did not see a particularly large pullback. Keep in mind that just one month ago, ETH was still below 2,000.
I actually said a week ago that whether it passed or not was merely another round of market speculat

Bitcoin has retraced 38% from its all-time high, with the pattern said to resemble a mid-cycle bottom.
Some analysts believe BTC is currently about 38% below its all-time high, a retracement range similar to the characteristics of mid-cycle bottoms in previous cycles—neither a euphoric top nor yet an extreme deep-bear-market level.
The chart shows BTC’s recent 10-day trend (Gate spot, 1-hour). The retracement is merely a reference point; the real direction still depends on the Federal Reserve decision and regulatory progress.

#WhereToParkStablecoinsWhileWaiting
When the crypto market becomes uncertain, many traders choose to keep part of their portfolio in stablecoins while waiting for clearer market conditions. Stablecoins are designed to maintain a relatively stable value, commonly around the U.S. dollar, making them useful for managing volatility without necessarily moving completely out of the digital-asset ecosystem.
But simply holding stablecoins is only one option. Depending on individual risk tolerance and goals, users may consider keeping them in a secure wallet, a reputable centralized exchange, or carefu

Democrats made a counteroffer on the CLARITY Act with stricter ethics rules, crypto stake sales, promoter disclosures, and stronger customer protection.
Republicans rejected the offer.
But the document does not say which demand caused the rejection.
Now, the next move from both sides will be important for crypto.

Insiders are ignoring the obvious signal SYMBOL just flashed.

$ZEC /USDT - LONG

Trade Plan:
Entry: 1197.34 – 1209.90
SL: 1143.29
TP1: 1248.87
TP2: 1279.04
TP3: 1324.29

Why this setup?
Why now? The daily trend is bullish and the 1h price is holding near 1204.11, giving us a high-conviction setup. The 15m RSI at 77.04 shows momentum is stretched but not yet exhausted, meaning the move has room to run. The 1h ATR of 25.139212 confirms volatility is expanding, so a break of the entry zone between 1197.34 and 1209.90 will likely be explosive. The first target sits at 1248.87, with a deeper ob

Tonight at 2 a.m. is destined to be another sleepless night✨
The Fed's decision directly determines whether everyone doubles their money or gets liquidated, while Warsh's speech at 2:30 a.m. will be the main event. The calm during the daytime session is merely a pause before the storm. The market could turn at any moment once the news is released, so remain patient and observe.
Do not open a position early without absolute confidence. Those trading short-term must strictly manage risk.

I don’t think every blockchain will survive the next cycle.
As crypto moves toward mass adoption, the market will become much more selective.
ICP and Solana are already showing how important transaction capacity can be.
But TPS isn’t everything.
The chains that last will need to:
→ Attract real users
→ Handle massive demand
→ Support useful apps
→ Solve real problems
→ Scale without breaking
Hype can pump a token.
Real utility builds an ecosystem.

Three years ago, I started imitating Buffett: drinking Pepsi every day, eating beef burgers, living a simple life, and reading every day. When picking stocks, I focus on fundamentals and hold large positions for the long term.
Now, apart from losing 90% on my investments, everything about me is very much like Buffett. 🤣

Zcash vote passes: halving mechanism retained, block time reduced to 25 seconds.
The ZEC community has completed its governance vote, deciding not to abandon Bitcoin-style halving issuance, while shortening block times to 25 seconds—the same issuance curve will be completed across more frequent blocks.
The chart shows ZEC’s performance over the past 72 hours (Gate spot), up approximately 11% over the past three days. How long the technical narrative can hold ultimately depends on actual selling pressure after the halving and on-chain activity; in the short term, pricing is driven more by senti

$14,390 “whale buy,” but CATE’s chart voted no
$CATE was flagged by on-chain monitoring as a “whale buy” an hour ago. I took a look at the amount, and it was absurd—$14,390. In a $68.75 million market cap, this signal is basically zero.

The chart was also pretty humiliating: half an hour after the event, $CATE fell instead of rising. But the daily ADX is 65.7, indicating a strong trend, so I’ll buy the dip—stories are stories, and trends are trends.

The daily RSI is 66 and relatively strong, the MACD has remained in a bullish crossover above zero for 16 days, and MA7 is pressing against

While the market is bleeding, $ZIG is doing the opposite. 👀
It’s not just holding , it’s showing serious strength.
Here’s what’s behind the momentum:
🔹 $100M DFSA-regulated ZM1 Fund launched
🔹 Japan’s Nomura has invested in $ZIG
🔹 Concrete + WLFI chose ZIGChain rails for their vault
🔹 Revenue-funded $ZIG buybacks continue
When real capital, infrastructure, and revenue start aligning, the chart can tell a very different story.
$ZIG is making noise.
Let’s see how far this decoupling goes.
Higher. 📈

I wasn’t even expecting to break even, but it ended up taking me straight into profit. This service is seriously on point. I opened the chart for $SOXL this morning and saw a weak rebound with insufficient buying support. Every push higher was just short of breaking through, and volume failed to follow. My bearish thinking was straightforward at the time: if no one is buying on the way up, just wait for it to drop on its own. It failed to hold during the intraday bottoming process, falling from 116.24 to 106.37, with the short position up +408.49%. That felt great, folks—what a satisfying chun

Stock Tokenization: What Happens When Markets Stop Watching the Clock?
One of the most interesting ideas behind tokenized stocks isn’t just ownership on-chain.
It’s access.
Traditional stock markets operate within defined trading hours and settlement processes.
Tokenized assets could potentially make markets more flexible:
→ 24/7 access instead of fixed sessions
→ Fractional ownership instead of whole shares
→ Programmable assets instead of static ownership
→ Faster settlement instead of waiting through multiple steps
That doesn’t mean traditional markets disappear overnight.
It simply means t

#Gate广场中秋团圆局 A 93% market probability immediately catches attention, but for me the interesting part is not simply that Barcelona are heavily favored. The real story is why the market has reached that level of confidence, and whether the actual match could follow the same script. Barcelona enter Matchday 6 with five consecutive La Liga victories, 21 goals scored and only 4 conceded, while Racing Santander have collected 7 points from their opening five matches and have already lost both of their away games. Gate Event Market currently prices a Barcelona win around 93%, with the draw around 5%

Unlike several other crypto assets, $BTC is not currently showing a Death Cross, reflecting its relative strength and continued market dominance.
However, the double bearish divergence, combined with the weekly MACD beginning to roll over, is not an encouraging setup ahead of the Fed decision.
This does not guarantee that price will decline, it simply signals that downside risk remains elevated. #Bitcoin #Crypto
