$BTC approximately $76,200, $ETH approximately $2,470; the market saw a recovery after the Fed's rate hike, but overall sentiment remains cautious
① The Fed raised rates by 25bp to 3.75%-4%, its first rate hike in over three years, while 16/18 officials expect at least one more hike this year, keeping short-term liquidity conditions tight

③ The key shor

11 votes short, the honeymoon between crypto and Washington is over
[Plain-language guide] The U.S. CLARITY Act, which aims to establish regulatory boundaries for crypto assets, failed in the Senate by a vote of 49 to 50, sending the crypto market down across the board under mounting pressure.
The key sticking points were the dispute over the presidential conflict-of-interest clause and community banks’ strong concerns that stablecoins paying interest in disguise would lead to deposit outflows.
With the bill stalled, the path to compliance for tokens other than Bitcoin has been blocked, signif

FED DECISION: HIGHER FOR LONGER IS BACK. 🇺🇸
1️⃣ Fed hikes rates by 25 BPS — first hike since July 2023
2️⃣ 12–0 unanimous decision
3️⃣ Fed says the move supports a “timelier” return to 2% inflation
4️⃣ Median forecast points to ONE MORE 25 BPS HIKE IN 2026
5️⃣ Job gains remain strong; unemployment has “changed little”
6️⃣ Fed: “The Committee will deliver price stability.”

The hardest part for those still holding isn’t a 20% drop—it’s deciding whether to cut losses: sell and fear not being able to buy back in, or hold and fear another drop.
This is exactly the answer Shuqin gave today. The company that issues USDC—she bought in at 60 and sold at 97—has now fallen to around 80. She said it can be gradually bought back between 75 and 80.
I checked last night’s market action: it plunged as low as 78.2, already entering the range where she wanted to buy back in—the price she wanted was delivered straight to her by the market.
What I’m thinking is, she dares to buy b

Four signals this morning—all taken: #美联储即将公布利率决定

A sleep tip that shocked me but worked wonders: set the AC to 21°C instead of 26°C.
My WHOOP showed that after setting it to 21°C, even with only 5 hours of sleep, my recovery was still at a highly satisfying 97% in the green.
The science is that falling asleep, especially entering deep sleep, depends on a drop in body temperature.

Few children drink this nowadays, right?

Walsh hikes rates, forced to go head-to-head with Trump!
First rate hike in three years, approved unanimously with all 12 votes.
The federal funds rate rose from 3.50%–3.75% to 3.75%–4.00%. The first move since July 2023.
Walsh’s statement was brief and forceful, just over a hundred words.
The economy was described in very strong terms: steady growth, resilient domestic demand, strong productivity, robust capital spending, employment keeping pace, and an unemployment rate that has barely moved. Then came the line that killed all fantasies: inflation remains elevated.
Today’s move is intended t

#CNPY Everyone, trust your own instincts and analyze bit by bit whether it can generate returns. I sold this one of the two tokens I invested in; although it has some minor flaws, they do not affect the bigger picture. I sold DGAI too early—you could say it can still rise. After all, 85% of the tokens are held by the top five players, who probably will not sell heavily until the price reaches a high. Personally, I think there will be heavy selling at 1.2—1.5. Give me a like if you think this makes sense.

Ethereum spot ETFs have total net assets of $15.42 billion, with the ETF net asset ratio (market capitalization as a share of Ethereum’s total market capitalization) reaching 5.25%; cumulative historical net inflows have reached $13.37 billion.

Why did SpaceX surge so sharply last night?
The fundamental reason is still its powerful, unique fundamentals, along with market consensus.
If one insists on finding far-fetched reasons, first, SpaceX plans to conduct Starship's 14th test flight at Starbase in South Texas on September 22. Second, Morgan Stanley reiterated its “Overweight” rating on SpaceX on Wednesday (September 16), highlighting the company's potential to improve AI computing efficiency and forecasting that its share price will reach $300.
These two factors can only be considered a trigger. Even without them, the share price

After those two long upper wicks appeared at the highs, I no longer considered chasing longs. $BABY repeatedly pushed into the key zone several times but was knocked back each time; this kind of price action itself is a signal that overhead holders are distributing, and chasing aggressively only means doing others a favor.
From a structural perspective, price broke below the starting point of the previous high-volume bullish candle, and the rebound failed to reclaim the prior low, so bears have the upper hand in the short term. The moving average has shifted from a key level to a key level, w
