Hi everyone!
Ledi_Trend here.
After 6 years in crypto, I’ve decided to be honest.
Because crypto isn’t just about pretty screenshots of Xs on social media.
It’s also about hard gut punches like this, which everyone usually keeps quiet about.
In 6 years, I’ve seen it all: scams, exchange collapses, all-time highs, and prolonged crypto winters. It seemed that nothing could surprise me anymore and that all the risks had been calculated.
But once again, the market reminded me who’s in charge—and charged a very high price for that lesson.
Yes, there’s now $115 in my account instead of $23,700.

Bitcoin posts second-best week since early 2021
Bitcoin recorded its second-strongest weekly performance since early 2021, driven by a confluence of macro tailwinds including U.S. Treasury buybacks, sustained ETF inflows, and a weakening dollar.
The rally reflects renewed risk appetite across crypto markets, with institutional demand via spot ETFs playing a central role alongside broader dollar weakness a combination that historically supports hard-asset and crypto valuations.

A few days ago, I was still calculating whether I had enough money for instant noodles this month; this morning, I was already wondering whether to add sausage. 😂
After seeing the bearish news, $FARTCOIN surprisingly didn’t fall. Funds quietly flowed in, and trading volume gradually built up. Positions that refuse to fall are often turning points. I chose to be bullish and signaled a long entry at 0.14123.
It’s now 0.18461, +2174.47%. Those already on board should be grinning in their sleep. 😎
There must be a strategy before the session, discipline during it, and reflection afterward. This m

#FedSeesTreasuryMarketFunctioningWell
The Treasury Market May Be Orderly, But Rising Yields Are Still a Major Warning for Crypto
One of the biggest macro stories right now is not necessarily inflation data, Bitcoin ETFs or the next Federal Reserve decision. It is the U.S. Treasury market.
The Federal Reserve may see Treasury market functioning as orderly, but that does not mean financial conditions are easy. Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari has acknowledged the sharp increase in long-term Treasury yields while indicating that he does not currently see signs of market dysfunction. The k

I just switched the app to the background, and it shot right back up. Is it playing hide-and-seek with me? When I opened the chart this morning, $NEAR was still hovering around 1.6360. Buying pressure had clearly strengthened, the key level held, and funds were willing to enter. I didn’t hesitate, placed an order directly, and went off to handle other things.
When I looked back, it had already surged to 1.9389, +1309%. With this kind of move, I don’t even need to think—the account is dancing on its own. Those already on board should be waking up laughing.
Nothing fancy about the operation: clo

Did nothing—just went to the bathroom, and when I came back, the candlesticks had already done the work for me. 🚀
During the intraday bottoming process, $BTC retested and held, the volume looked unusual, and buying pressure was quietly strengthening. I figured this level had potential, so I opened a long and took a shot, entering at 75769.3.
When I came back from washing my hands, the current price had already climbed to 78854.4, securing +708.12%. I caught the rhythm perfectly and nailed this move.
The position management was simple: take profit on 80% first—lock in gains where appropriate.

U.S. stocks have fallen sharply, and attention is starting to shift toward the crypto market. Could a major market move be coming next? Be careful with altcoins—I saw one today that plunged 90%, #Gate储备金规模升至82亿美元

[Lu Hong] 8.25 Morning: Has Bitcoin's shakeout ended? Go long here, target 80000!
"Once you reach the summit, all other mountains look small." Good morning, everyone, I'm Lu Hong.

The one-hour chart is crystal clear—after a surge that sent Bitcoin sharply higher, it has now entered high-level consolidation. The previous high near the upper Bollinger Band is creating resistance. After the market pulled back to the middle band, there was no deep sell-off, and buying support below remains strong. MACD is turning upward from low levels, and the bullish foundation remains intact.

This is now a

$APE is acting calm after that sharp bounce from support, but underneath that calmness the structure still looks impressively healthy. Buyers appear to be rebuilding strength methodically, while the oracle narrative is heating up across the market. $LINK and $BAND moving in sync could provide the catalyst for a much stronger continuation.

This trend is so obvious I don’t even need to think—the account is partying on its own. When I opened the charts this morning, $BTC still looked lifeless, but I vaguely sensed funds quietly moving in, with someone sweeping up large orders on the order book every so often. I followed in with a small position around 60497.3, set my stop-loss, and left it alone. When I checked again in the afternoon, the current price was already 78953.4, and my account flashed +5311.22%—that was a very satisfying bite. Money earned is the realization of your understanding; money lost is the flaw in your understa

SL: 4718.69

- The 15-minute RSI has reached 76.55, indicating short-term overheating, with pullback pressure building.
- The 1D trend is ranging, not one-way, so this short aims to capture a swing, not a trend.
- Why now? Because RSI is overbought and the price has reached the resistance zone, offering a favorable risk-reward r

Macroeconomic environment: The U.S. Treasury may deploy approximately $1 trillion from the TGA account to support bond buybacks, while expectations of potential declines in long-term interest rates have strengthened support for risk-asset valuations. The U.S. Dollar Index is at 99.05, remaining relatively weak.
ETF flows: U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $1.92 billion in net inflows for the week, their strongest weekly performance since October 2025; spot Ethereum ETFs recorded approximately $697 million in net inflows during the week.

Strategy raised $3.28B in August by selling its own shares, but none of it went into Bitcoin.
Instead, the company now holds about $6.69B in USD, giving it plenty of firepower for future $BTC buys.
The bigger story: Strategy hasn't bought Bitcoin since June 22. It has actually sold 6,916 #BTC since then, including 3,328 BTC in August.
BTC is trading above $79K now, back above Strategy's average cost of $75,385.
So the big question is simple: Will Saylor finally put that $6.69B cash pile back into Bitcoin? 👀
