#TIA After two years! It's time to wake up!!

My new book, *Structural Thinking*, is now available. Why do people who work equally hard end up with completely different fates? Why do some problems keep recurring yet remain unresolved? Why do experiences, rules, and institutions that once worked gradually become ineffective as the times change? Because what we see is often only the result, not the structure that produces it.
The book is divided into four parts and 34 chapters, covering individuals, society, business, institutions, and technology. It explores in depth the relationships among resources, interests, rules, causality, incentive

Roger Ver, who promoted Bitcoin everywhere in its early days and was dubbed “Bitcoin Jesus,” now has to reach a settlement over U.S. tax charges, with the agreement amounting to as much as $49.9 million. I still paused when I saw that figure.
He has reached an agreement with the Trump administration; “as much as” refers to the cap on the settlement amount, not that he has already paid $49.9 million. What made him famous back then was his passion for Bitcoin, but now seeing his name again comes in a settlement announcement for a tax case. That contrast makes me sigh even more than the nickname

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

10.19 Intraday Short-to-Long Logic: A report on the 18th local time said that Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi stated that day that Iran’s previously proposed “seven-day plan”—the proposal to “reopen the Strait of Hormuz within seven days”—remains in effect.
He said Iran’s conditions for ending hostilities and reopening the Strait of Hormuz are “very clear,” and that it had conveyed the “seven-day plan” to the United States. The U.S. has offered feedback on the plan, and Iran is evaluating its response.
Bright View: As long as the market sees a possibility of temporary compromise talks, capit

$ETH 2428 Liquidity Hunt: Long-Term Outflows of 5.3 Billion, the Truth Behind the Short Squeeze
Over 15 days, funds have clearly seen net outflows of 5.3 billion, with long-term holders exiting. So why did short-term buying suddenly drive prices up, leaving a whale with a 30 million short position just $9 away from liquidation?
Here’s the underlying logic: The nominal long-short ratio is as high as 19%, with the market crowded into shorts. The big players don’t need to push prices back to their highs; they only need a small amount of short-term capital (75% of inflows) to push prices past liq

I made so many trades last week and only got two wrong: one on Friday and one on Sunday.
Overall, the results were pretty good.
All the trades are documented.
I held onto my long position for over a week, and it finally recovered.
Stay firmly long!!
Next, keep an eye on the meeting and the election. Volatility will be high, so be sure to manage risk.
Let’s keep it going this week and aim for a good trade!!

The long at 81 last night felt great (all followers were notified)
I took profit and exited at 1,000 points; no need to be greedy
Consider reversing and going short this round
The Asian and European sessions may still see another small rally
For positioning, consider shorting at the current price of 826; more conservative traders can consider entering around 83
An initial position of 5% can be opened; if it later wicks to 83, just add in batches #质押LaunchPool瓜分280万$DNA #GateWCTCS9全球交易赛 #比特币短线站上8.2万美元 $BTC ‌$ETH ‌$SOL ‌,

Character AI went bankrupt. Disney is willing to spend $180 million to retain its employees, but only $20 million for the technology. As for the entire platform and its tens of millions of users, Disney has no interest in them at all.
The bankruptcy court documents recently revealed contain some fascinating details.
Disney made offers to all 66 Character AI employees. Fifty-six have already left, while the remaining 10 are still waiting for their work visas to be adjusted.
To retain this group, Disney expects to invest $180 million over the next three years, including salaries, stock incentive

U Jie 10.19 Monday ETH $ETH Trading Plan
Entry: If price rebounds into the 2440‑2480 range and the 1-hour candle forms a long upper wick, with declining volume on the rise, enter a short after signs of stalling emerge.
Stop-loss: If price holds firmly above 2510, breaking through resistance, exit the short and abandon the setup.
First take-profit target: 2430
Second take-profit target: 2405
Market logic: After the previous sharp drop set a low of 2313.39, the current move is a corrective rebound within a downtrend, not a trend reversal. 2501 is a key resistance level from earlier, while 2465-

Bitcoin faking us out again? After plunging all weekend, $BTC hit just above $80,000 at its low last night. A big green candle this morning sent it V-shaped back up, and it’s acting like nothing happened, climbing back above 82400. But whether this rebound is “made of paper” or “built to last” depends on what happens to volume next.
The chart shows a clear breakout on the 15-minute timeframe, but volume hasn’t followed. It looks more like a “fake breakout” driven by short covering than a genuine move fueled by buyers putting real money on the line. Market sentiment is very delicate right now.

$BTC $ETH $SNDK $XAU , the discounted subscription trade hit take-profit perfectly (for the price of an afternoon tea). It’s now steadily in profit. Remember to take profits in batches and move your stop loss up, warriors. See you in the livestream tonight~

🛢️ The Citgo Simón Bolívar Foundation served 1.5 million people: what does it tell us about Venezuela’s currency landscape and P2P market?
The Simón Bolívar Foundation, Citgo Petroleum’s philanthropic arm, published its sixth annual report with a figure worth reading twice: nearly 1,500,000 vulnerable people served since 2020. The original goal was to reach one million. Reality surpassed it.
During 2025, the Foundation signed 11 new grant agreements with partner organizations operating in Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, and the United States. The estimated reach: more than 116,000 people in nee

$PI If Pi doesn't succeed, we will no longer have dreams or believe that any great undertaking can succeed. We will give up all hope and no longer expect to help more people through success, nor will we have the means to show gratitude and repay those who deserve it. The debts we incur in this life will be repaid in the next. Helpless and unable to help more people for the rest of our lives, all we can do is live our own lives well, not waste the gift of life, and spend our remaining years with dignity
