Retail gold demand is now at its “second-lowest” level, colder than it was around 2000. According to the World Gold Council, U.S. demand for gold bars and coins recently fell to the second-lowest level on record, surpassed only by the low point around 2000. Foot traffic at gold shops, coin premiums, and retail investor discussion have all been subdued. Yet right after that, gold entered an 11-year bull market—from 2001 to 2011, the price rose from around $250 to above $1,900. Americans are disinterested again now, but the East is buying: consumers and central banks in China and India continue

Only persistence makes it a dream;
give up, and it’s merely wishful thinking.
Endure the days when no one pays attention,
and only then will there be poetry and distant horizons!

$SUI has reached 0.9811USDT, down 2.82% in 24 hours, while 1-hour trading participation is only 0.02x, suggesting some weakness. This seems a little unusual, because the price has moved but volume has not followed. The current price has already broken below the 1-hour support level at 0.9528, while the 1-hour resistance at 1.0094 still lies ahead.
This looks more like a tentative decline than confirmation of a genuine trend. My view is that if the price can regain and hold above 1.0094, the drop may just be a temporary pullback. But if the price stays below 0.9528, this decline may not be a co

BTC: The biggest risk is not regulation, but a cryptographic crisis. The threats posed by AI and quantum computing are underestimated. It is predicted that algorithms could crack some early wallets within 1–1.5 years, putting 2 million old coins with lost private keys at risk of creating selling pressure. This view is somewhat cautionary, but I have not sold my core BTC holdings.
ETH: I sold 80%–90% of my position at $3,600–$4,000 and have not bought back in since. The market is being sustained by narratives, and the risk-reward ratio is poor, so I am keeping only a small core position while w

🚨 SOMETHING WEIRD IS HAPPENING
Major AI stock perps? DUMPED 5% IN SECONDS. Then an instant bounce. Crypto had a little drop too.
US markets CLOSED. No news recorded.

Is BLACK Monday coming?

$ETH is worth watching this time not for a simple “up” or “down” call, but to see which of the two nearby boundaries price genuinely clears after reaching 2,409.14. Rather than picking a side, first check whether price and volume are aligned. Price shows direction; volume shows participation. When price has moved but volume is clearly below average, the follow-through of either a breakout or a decline should be discounted.

According to @VitalikButerin, the cost of Bitcoin mining is divided 50/50 between hardware and electricity.
Whereas almost the entire cost of AI inference goes only towards hardware.
This data has raised the question of who is actually burning more of the planet's energy.

Funding doubles in half a month—from 50 billion to 100 billion. What exactly is capital scrambling for?
Guys, first, take a look at these numbers. DeepSeek’s second funding round was originally planned to raise 50 billion yuan, but in just half a month, the amount doubled to around 100 billion yuan. What does that mean? China’s largest fundraising project in the primary market this year, raising around 150 billion yuan in six months.‌
Even more astonishingly, the funding amount doubled, but the valuation didn’t rise. DeepSeek’s current pre-money valuation remains at around 500 billion yuan. I

Brent crude surged again, just hitting a high of $110. Although Iran proposed conditions for keeping shipping lanes open for 7 days, the market does not seem optimistic. This was directly reflected in oil prices.
Put simply, the market has not taken Iran’s 7-day shipping-lane plan seriously at all. Why? Because everyone knows this kind of temporary arrangement is highly uncertain. What happens after 7 days? No one can say for sure. On top of that, the situation in Iran keeps shifting back and forth. They say shipping lanes will remain open today, but could they change their minds tomorrow? No

#KOSPIJumps3.3% KOSPI Jumps 3.3%, Is South Korea’s Stock Market Signaling a Powerful Recovery?
South Korea’s stock market has attracted fresh attention after the KOSPI surged 3.3%, bringing renewed optimism to investors and raising an important question. Is this the beginning of a stronger market recovery, or is the rally simply a short-term rebound after recent volatility?
A sharp move in a major stock index can change market sentiment quickly. When prices rise strongly in a single session, investors naturally begin looking for the reasons behind the move, the sectors leading the recovery, an

From over 100 U a month ago to over 1,700 U now, I believe I can steadily grow it tenfold, a hundredfold. All I need is time for compounding. Back to the market: Bitcoin and ETH are moving exactly alike. A 10% pullback in their current prices would put them right at a confluence zone. As shown in the chart, this is the 0.5 Fibonacci level of the latest rally, the weekly Bollinger Band middle line, and a strong support level repeatedly validated on the weekly chart. So when ETH drops to around 2,150, that will be the start of the rally, with new highs in its sights. 5,000 is not the finish line
