🚨 Record-low U.S. homebuyers isn’t about deporting immigrants.
It’s about home affordability ⚠️
Number of homebuyers just hit the lowest level ever recorded, sellers outnumber buyers by more than 50%.
The real reason buyers are being forced to walk away?
🔹️ Median home prices still near all-time highs
🔹️ 30-year mortgage rates stuck around ~6.8%+
🔹️ Price-to-income ratios at multi-decade extremes
Young buyers and first-timers are simply priced out. Rate lock-in keeps existing owners from listing.
Incentives & buydowns only go so far, even builders arent moving homes.

This time in Vietnam, I exchanged ¥500 worth into Vietnamese dong
Ended up spending all 5 days in the hotel staring at my computer
And had only spent ¥100 by the time I left
But it was indeed because prices were cheap
A motorbike taxi ride costs ¥5, and a bowl of Pho costs ¥10
See you next time, city where chaos and vitality coexist 🛵
☕️ Anyway, the coffee is bought!
Friends in ACG, wait for me to come back and let you experience the joy of sleeping only 5 hours a day 0 𖥦 0
Time to lock in 💚

Two key U.S. crypto meetings could shape the next phase of regulation
The U.S. crypto market enters an important week, with the White House and CFTC both putting digital-asset regulation in focus.
On Wednesday, August 19, the White House is expected to meet with major crypto and digital-asset industry leaders. The discussion comes at a critical moment for the CLARITY Act, which failed to receive a Senate vote before the August recess. The next major procedural vote is currently set for September 15, leaving the legislation facing a much narrower path forward.
Then on Thursday, August 20, the C

USDT’S $6.8B BUFFER: THE REAL STORY ISN’T THE NUMBER — IT’S THE RESILIENCE
Tether reporting approximately $6.8 billion more in reserves than liabilities is a meaningful development for the stablecoin market.
But the bigger question is not simply whether USDT is backed.
The market is increasingly asking a harder question:

After breaking its descending trendline, price has climbed along a fresh ascending trendline providing dynamic support around the 489-491 zone, which also aligns with horizontal support.
The key barrier sits at 500, needing a decisive daily close above to confirm bullish continuation.
Market sentiment is cautiously optimistic, shown by stronger volume, rising open interest near 880 million, and short liquidations dominating the daily window while longs lead shorter frames, typical of a rally catching late sellers off guard.
