A trader in New York got a quarterly bonus of $198,000, and $109,000 went to taxes—more than half, gone. It stings, but Wall Street’s high salaries are really just a way of working for the tax authorities. The real question is, where does all that money go? At that tax burden, who’d want to stay in New York for long? So what’s the takeaway? I haven’t figured it out yet.

$LINK Short thesis: As long as the price stays below 9.25, watch 9.08 and 8.99 in sequence; a move above 9.39 invalidates the short thesis.
Entry range: 9.225–9.251; targets: 9.144, 9.081, and 8.988; stop: 9.395.
The current 4-hour price is around 9.24, still below the 9.98 EMA50, with bears continuing to dominate. The distance from entry to the stop is about 1.7%, and to the third target about 2.7%. If TP3 is reached, the risk-reward ratio is approximately 1.6R.
The above is for sharing a trading idea only and does not constitute investment advice.

Round-number levels are never a get-out-of-jail-free card; don't mistake pricing conventions for support (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧
$BTC is currently at 67330.5 USDT, down 2.8% over 24 hours. The 68200—68400 range, which previously saw repeated turnover, has now become overhead resistance; although price dipped to 66913.6 and bounced, it has never managed to reclaim 68000. In other words, the first hurdle for a rebound is to recover this lost ground—it's clearly too early to call this “strong consolidation” (￣▽￣).
$XRP is trading at 0.9994 USDT, down 1.1%, hovering around 1 USDT. After dipping to 0.9843, it r

Looking at this market, I really want to give myself a couple of slaps.
At the recent peak, my account’s unrealized profit had surged to 243U. Just because of that bit of greed, always thinking “I’ll hold on a little longer—it could go higher,” what happened? This slow, painful pullback is steadily eating away at my profits.
Let’s look at the details of this pullback:
$ETH : Average entry price 1,753.34, current price 1,808.25, unrealized profit down to just +62.59U (ROI +62.63%). Ethereum was once close to doubling, with unrealized profits touching 95U, but has now slid all the way to just ov

Closing thoughts: With AI on our side, are ordinary people closer to “financial freedom”?

Dr. Han’s talk in Oxford actually posed a huge temptation to ordinary people everywhere: In the AI era, does “Start Alone” mean ordinary people are closer to financial freedom?

In the past, starting a business was a long shot. You needed an extremely high barrier to entry—capital, connections, and a technical team. Now, with “Boss + AI,” it seems that as long as you have an idea, you can get started at zero cost.

From a positive perspective, yes, it’s closer.
Because AI has broken capital’s monopoly ov

Starting with a One-Person Web3 Company—AI Is Leveling the Bar for Building a Team

Guys, after watching Dr. Han’s speech, the point that resonated with me most is that AI is rapidly leveling the “team barrier” to entrepreneurship.

We’ve seen this all too often in Web3. Many so-called star projects raise tens of millions and hire dozens or even hundreds of people, only to deliver a complete mess. Meanwhile, more and more one-person powerhouses are emerging. One person, one computer, and a few AI accounts can build a protocol generating several million dollars in annualized revenue.

This is t

Why has $TAC been hinting at a move like this all along? It just sits there, holding above the line, while I'm still waiting for the real spark. Maybe it's just building pressure, but this is definitely making the afternoon drag. Market movers:

$ARIA : Current price 0.26163 - 24-hour change: +32.10%

Funding is negative and OI is still rising; $BARD dumps to 0.1005 and I buy the dip
$BARD Current price: 0.1005, 24h -17.623%, pushed down from 0.1226 to the bottom of the range at 0.0995—the harder it dumps, the calmer I get. I’m outright bullish: the price is highest when shorts feel most comfortable.

First, the volume ratio is 1.851, with 24h trading volume of 2838248 USDT. The sell-off is happening on rising volume, with selling pressure absorbed through turnover.

Second, the funding rate is -0.00082664, with so many shorts that they’re paying to hold positions; OI is 54,335,831, up 1.7

VVV | Long 🟢 | Bullish | 15m 24h: +17.71% | Volume: 58.0M USDT Long rationale: Price is above EMA200; EMA20/50/200 are in bullish alignment; RSI14 is 64.6; MACD histogram is positive; ADX14 is 33.4; volume is 0.75 times the 20-candle average; trend pullback/continuation. Entry: 20.454 Stop-loss: 19.816 Take-profit 1: 21.2515 | Take-profit 2: 21.73 | Take-profit 3: 22.368 Entry price is for reference only; do not chase highs. The strategy is invalidated if the stop-loss is hit. Technical analysis only, not financial advice. $VVV
