Starlink | Recent Market Update | October 9–October 19
Since October 9, BTC has yet to establish a clear one-way trend and has continued to fluctuate within a range overall.
BTC has moved up and down by two to three thousand points, while ETH has also fluctuated by around 150 points. It may seem like there are opportunities every day, but in reality the market keeps swinging back and forth: chasing rallies can easily lead to pullbacks, while chasing declines can just as easily run into a rebound.
BTC is currently around 82,400, with the previous low near 79,700. Even after rebounding, it has n

1. Market Overview: Weekend Short Squeeze Continues
The short squeeze extended through the weekend, triggering a modest rebound early Monday. Price pushed above both the weekend high and Friday night's peak, putting the market back into a key testing zone.
For this week, the focus is on how price behaves during intraday pullbacks. If the market holds above its recent lows without a significant expansion in selling volume, the broader range-bound structure may remain intact.
2. Bitcoin (BTC): $81,000 Remains a Key Zone

Latvia’s new crypto tax law is mostly being discussed online as “you’ll be able to pay taxes with crypto.” I think there’s another point worth highlighting: that 10% is calculated based on the market value of the coins you hold, not how much you’ve earned.
First, let’s be clear about what this law actually changes.
The usual rules are being loosened. Before, every crypto-to-crypto swap might have triggered a tax calculation; now, those swaps don’t count. Tax only kicks in when you withdraw more from your account than the principal you originally invested.
There’s also a one-time chance to “set

Gate’s contract trading volume ranks among the top three globally. Can this wave of derivatives activity last?
The market’s recent trend is clear: BTC and ETH have been gradually moving higher amid volatility, and the previously lifeless sideways trading has finally ended, bringing a notable pickup in market activity. The latest data shows that BTC and ETH contract trading volumes on Gate both rank among the top three globally, with BTC alone recording nearly $7.178 billion in 24-hour contract trading volume. The platform’s derivatives performance h

BTC started rebounding on Monday!
Another early morning, another dip to the 80800 support level, and another rebound! The same script has played out three times already! Those of you calling for 72000, how are your short positions doing?
This time, the rebound could reach 82854–83766. It needs to hold above 82180 to stop the decline, and above 83500 to keep moving up. Otherwise, it’ll continue consolidating in this range for a while, like Pan Jinlian swinging on a swing, with temptation all around her skirt—afraid you won’t be able to resist!

Is there anything strange about that?

📊 Three measurements get confused every morning in USDT/VES P2P: the Radar spread (7.16%), the order book spread (0.05%), and the spread at each bank (0.83% to 8%). PitbullChain’s Oct 13 analysis shows how to tell them apart.
🔍 1. The benchmark spread: 7.16% on the P2P Radar. It’s the market’s thermometer—the difference between the best buy and the best sell across all of P2P.
📖 2. The order book spread: 0.05%. It measures the opposite: immediate liquidity between consecutive levels in the book. When it’s this tight, the market can absorb trades without moving the price.

NEAR Accounts Are Already Post-Quantum Ready. 🔐
NEAR Protocol lets users secure their accounts with ML-DSA (Dilithium) post-quantum signatures on mainnet. No need to move assets. Rotate the keys and the account becomes quantum-resistant. Designed with this in mind since 2018.
🌟What it means
Most chains will need a migration when quantum arrives. NEAR users can flip the switch today. Meteor Wallet already supports it. Through Chain Signatures, a NEAR account can also help protect assets on other chains. Consensus and full cross-chain post-quantum work is still on the roadmap toward 2027.
