Rate hike delivered, but the real hawkish signal is in the dot plot
In the early hours of September 17 Beijing time, the Federal Reserve raised the federal funds rate by 25 basis points to 3.75%–4.00% as expected, passing the decision unanimously with 12 votes in favor and 0 against. This was the first rate hike since July 2023.
I. The decision itself contained no surprises
The 92.4% probability of a rate hike had already been fully priced in by the market, and the 25-basis-point increase was also within expectations. The market direction was truly determined by two signals that had not previo

I. What Is ARC
The most fundamental difference between Arc and other chains: it does not rely on a "native coin" to survive
Arc is an EVM-compatible Layer 1 built by Circle (the issuer of USDC), with its public mainnet opening on September 16, 2026 (today).
Its differences from mainstream public chains center on four points:
Gas is paid in USDC, with fees denominated in dollars.

#WhereToParkStablecoinsWhileWaiting
When BTC can't decide between a breakout and another sell-off, I don't think the answer is to pick a side with all my money. I’d rather keep my capital working while keeping enough liquidity to react.
Right now, the market is sitting in an uncomfortable zone. BTC is dealing with major macro uncertainty around the Fed, while traders are still trying to understand whether the current weakness is a deeper correction or simply another opportunity to buy the dip.
That changes how I would manage 10,000 USDT.
My priority in this kind of market is not chasing the h

After $ENA surged to 0.14931, I took profits on 70% first. It’s not that I’m bearish, but this level is right at the key prior-high resistance, making further chasing less worthwhile. The move up from 0.14090 formed a breakout-pullback-breakout structure, with each pullback holding at a higher key level and volume expanding on the breakouts.
The key levels are clear now: the prior high is the first key level. If, after breaking through, price pulls back on lower volume and holds the upper boundary, that would be the new entry setup; if it only pushes above and then falls back, it could be a fa

#CNPY Everyone, trust your own instincts and analyze bit by bit whether it can generate returns. I sold this one of the two tokens I invested in; although it has some minor flaws, they do not affect the bigger picture. I sold DGAI too early—you could say it can still rise. After all, 85% of the tokens are held by the top five players, who probably will not sell heavily until the price reaches a high. Personally, I think there will be heavy selling at 1.2—1.5. Give me a like if you think this makes sense.

CRCL Recommended by “Scumbag”
The assets recommended by “Scumbag” are all assets he himself would hold. Over the past few days, CRCL quickly pulled back by more than 20% due to the failed vote on the CLARITY Act, compounded by the rate hike. “Scumbag” currently has an initial position of 3 tranches, with an average price around 88.
“Scumbag’s” subsequent add-on levels will be:
76.5, 1 tranche
68.5, 3 tranches
63.5, 3 tranches
10 tranches in total, equivalent to 10% of the total capital.

$ETH /USDT - LONG

Trade Plan:
Entry: 2415.83 – 2425.61
SL: 2373.74
TP1: 2455.95
TP2: 2479.44
TP3: 2514.67

Why this setup?
Why now? The daily trend is bullish, the 1h RSI sits at 41.12 showing room to run, and the 1h ATR of 19.57 confirms active volatility. The entry zone between 2415.83 and 2425.61 aligns with the 1h price of 2420.57, while TP1 at 2455.95 and TP2 at 2479.44 define measured targets. The invalidation level of 2450.82 is the hard line that protects the long thesis.

Debate:
Are we testing TP2 or seeing a rejection

Nobody is talking about this SYMBOL setup yet.

$ADA /USDT - SHORT

Trade Plan:
Entry: 0.1945 – 0.1957
SL: 0.2007
TP1: 0.1909
TP2: 0.1881
TP3: 0.1839

Why this setup?
Why now? The daily trend is bearish, the 1h price sits at 0.1953, and the 15m RSI at 42.71 shows momentum is fading without being oversold, so the short is still in play. The 1h ATR of 0.002338 means the entry zone between 0.1945 and 0.1957 is tight enough for a clean trigger. From entry, TP1 is 0.1909 and TP2 is 0.1881, giving a structured path to capture the ongoing downtrend. The line in the sand is 0.2084, because anything

#CLARITY法案未获通过 : What Does It Mean for Crypto Regulation?
A Key Vote, but Not Necessarily the Final Chapter
The U.S. Senate’s latest vote on the Digital Asset Market CLARITY Act has become an important moment for the cryptocurrency industry.
On September 15, the Senate failed to advance the legislation in a procedural vote. The measure received 49 votes in favor and 50 against, falling short of the 60 votes required to move forward.
The CLARITY Act is designed to establish a broader federal regulatory framework for digital assets, including clearer roles for regulators and market participants.

Fed Chair Kevin Walsh said that price stability and controlling inflation remain the Fed’s top priorities behind today’s rate hike.
Here is what he said:
1. A strong labor market, higher-than-expected CPI and PPI data, and the latest escalation of the war drove this decision.
2. The decision passed unanimously, 12-0, because the Fed’s 2% PCE inflation target remains the primary objective.
3. The overall U.S. economy remains strong, domestic spending is healthy, and credit flows are robust.
4. The rise in Treasury yields is partly attributable to competition for capital between the government a

After $ZHIPU surged to 92.17, I actually took 70% off first. It’s not that I’m bearish, but this level is right at the key prior-high resistance, making further chasing less attractive. The move up from 85.41 formed a breakout-retest-breakout structure, with each retest holding at a higher key level and volume expanding on the breakouts.

The key levels are clear now: the prior high is the first key level. If, after breaking out, price can retest on lower volume and hold the upper boundary, that would be the new entry logic; if it merely surges above and then falls back, it could be a false b
