Looking back from August 2026, the air narrative has essentially faded away. The market is straightforward now—whoever can consistently generate real returns can retain capital.
The Perp DEX sector has seen the most obvious changes. Average monthly trading volume in the first half of the year remained steadily above the $600 billion level, while the on-chain OI share gradually climbed to around 13%. With its self-built L1 and low latency, Hyperliquid has consistently held a share of around 30%, and institutions have become quite comfortable using it for hedging. However, during the volatility

The morning forecast materialized as expected, with the trend extending downward as expected.
The market has its own rhythm; understand the trend and follow it.
No need to worry about volatility—stick to your trading plan, wait calmly for the market to reach its target, and harvest steadily.

#StrategySells1637BTCAndBuysBackSTRC 🚨
Strategy has reportedly sold 1,637 BTC while buying back STRC, signaling a strategic capital management move rather than a shift away from its long-term Bitcoin conviction.
This highlights how major institutions continue to optimize liquidity and balance sheet efficiency while maintaining exposure to digital assets.
📊 Smart treasury management is about adapting to market conditions without losing sight of long-term goals.
What do you think—will this move strengthen Strategy's financial position or spark new market speculation?

I recently tried Gate’s event contracts, and I feel their biggest advantage is simplicity.
There’s no need to study complicated leverage, margin, or liquidation mechanisms—you only need to predict the outcome of an event, such as whether BTC will rise or fall next, and choose your direction.
For ordinary users, the experience is much easier: the risks are clear upfront, you know exactly how much you’re putting in, and you don’t have to worry about getting liquidated suddenly.
In the past, following the market was more about guessing; now, you can directly turn your market judgment into a trade

8.4 Afternoon SanDisk Market Analysis — Shiyuan's View: Should We Short Now?
Current price: 1317
The price surged to 1433 earlier before encountering resistance and falling sharply. It is currently in a rebound and recovery phase, with upward momentum gradually weakening and considerable overhead selling pressure. Shorting directly at the current price is not recommended, as the risk-reward ratio is poor and it is easy to get whipsawed.
Resistance: 1335‑1360
Support: 1280‑1250
1. Consider entering a short again if the rebound reaches the 1335‑1360 resistance zone, with a stop-loss above 1370.

$SNDK is starting to rebound; this move will reach 1400 before dumping again!
SNDK has rebounded from 1124 and is currently around 1316.
Is this the bottom? It's impossible to say for now; at the very least, wait for 1400 to hold!
The candlestick chart shows buying support at the lows, but this only proves that selling pressure has eased.
The 1300–1400 range needs close attention, with 1400 as the first resistance above.
If it is rejected, that means the overhead trapped supply remains heavy, so a pullback to 1200 cannot be ruled out.
I hope everyone understands that in a strong market, it's

After a slight rebound in gold prices during the morning session, they came under pressure and fell again. Prices are hovering around $4,057 at midday, with the overall trend continuing to show a weak, range-bound pattern.

🌍 SOUTH AFRICA UNVEILS DRAFT RULES FOR CROSS-BORDER CRYPTO TRANSFERS
South Africa has released draft regulations for cross-border cryptocurrency transfers. Under the proposal, offshore crypto transfers would have to go through authorized providers and be reported to the country's financial surveillance authority.
The move signals growing regulatory acceptance of crypto while tightening oversight. It could improve investor confidence but increase compliance requirements for exchanges and users.
