With the U.S. midterm elections approaching, could a black swan emerge?
Many people are asking: Could a black swan appear before the U.S. midterm elections?
My personal view: The most likely scenario is repeated volatility; a trend-defining black swan is unlikely, but it cannot be completely ruled out!

Base case (the market’s current main expectation):
The most likely outcome is a “split Congress,” with Democrats retaking the House of Representatives.
The market has already priced in this expectation. Once it becomes reality, the market could easily “buy the rumor, sell the fact,” with bulls

#Gate衍生品份额增幅全球第一 CoinDesk September report: Gate’s derivatives trading volume reached $396.4 billion (+38.2% month-on-month), surpassing Byb to rank third globally, with a 10.1% market share (the largest increase among top global exchanges); its 9.1% share of RWA perpetual contracts also ranked among the top three. The data looks impressive, but as an eight-year user, let me be blunt: trading volume is the “result,” not the “cause”—whether an exchange can continuously attract traders depends on liquidity, experience, and innovation. They are not an “either-or” choice, but a “three-part combo”:

So, what exactly is the price of becoming a god?

U.S. September CPI will be released tonight at 20:30
Market expectations: headline CPI +0.6% MoM and 3.6% YoY (previously 3.4%), core CPI +0.2% MoM and approximately 2.4%-2.5% YoY. Mainly driven by rising gasoline prices.
My view: Headline CPI will broadly meet expectations, while core CPI is highly likely to come in around 0.2% MoM. The energy shock has been fully priced in, housing continues to cool moderately, and second-round pass-through remains limited.
If core CPI does not exceed expectations, it will reinforce expectations that the Federal Reserve will hold steady in October and defer

$BTC .D/weekly — Crypto Rotation Cycle 🔥
According to the Traditional Cryptocurrency Bull Market Rotation Model, the market may still be in Phase 1.
❇️ The whole weekly candle—a bullish white one—is sitting above the triangle after the breakout
❇️ That means money is flowing into #Bitcoin
So the capital hasn't rotated into Alts yet. There's a lot more room for it to flow down the chain: Ethereum → Large Caps → Altseason.
💥 That's very bullish for Alts 🚀

US September CPI Is About to Be Released: Will Bitcoin Face a New Wave of Volatility?
The cryptocurrency market is approaching an important macroeconomic event as investors turn their attention to the release of the United States September Consumer Price Index (CPI) data on October 14. Inflation figures are closely watched by financial markets because they can influence expectations surrounding Federal Reserve policy, interest rates, the US dollar, and risk-sensitive assets such as Bitcoin (BTC).
For crypto investors and market observers, the key question is whether the latest i

Bitcoin 84117.6, Ethereum 2529.57—two market phases, the same human nature. After the frenzy of a surge comes the pullback of a trend reversal. Gains take time to accumulate; declines often strike without warning. Explosive rallies breed greed, while sharp drops teach respect. Only by understanding the cycle of market movements can one avoid being swept up by short-term rises and falls.$BTC $ETH #微策略两周回购3.69亿美元STRC

US CPI DATA DROPS TODAY US inflation data for September is coming out today.

$BTC and the crypto market move higher.
A higher reading could put more pressure on the market.

Before tonight’s September CPI release, August CPI rose 0.4% month over month and core CPI rose 0.3%, pushing the September FOMC toward its first rate hike in more than three years, with the probability briefly reaching about 70%;
Ahead of the October 27–28 meeting, CME’s odds of another rate hike have fallen to just 17%.
Institutions expect headline CPI to rise to 3.6% year over year and 0.6% month over month in September, with energy as the main driver;
core CPI is expected to rise 2.5% year over year and 0.2% month over month, below the previous 0.3%.
