Tether’s $6.8B Surplus: Why Counterparty Topology Matters More Than Headline Validation for Systemic Safety
KPMG’s unqualified opinion + physical gold count validates reserves exist—but not how safely they’re held. The real story isn’t transparency achieved; it’s counterparty concentration risk exposed. Here’s what traders should scrutinize now that “do reserves exist?” is settled. 👇

🚨 3.56M BTC May Be Lost Forever
CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost reports that around 3.56 million BTC are now considered lost or permanently inactive roughly 17.7% of Bitcoin’s circulating supply.
That’s an extraordinary amount of BTC removed from practical market liquidity.
But one important distinction: “lost” doesn’t necessarily mean every coin is proven inaccessible. Some may simply belong to holders who haven’t moved their BTC for many years.
Still, if a large portion never returns to the market, Bitcoin’s effective available supply is much smaller than the headline circulating-supply figure

Had a blast hosting today’s @pudgypenguins meetup in Singapore 🇸🇬 🐧
Big thank you to everyone who came through. It was great seeing the whole table ripping packs, comparing pulls and chasing their favourite cards.
We ended the afternoon with a 20 question Kahoot on Pudgy Penguins and KAKAWOW, with plushies going to our top three winners.
It felt really good to have the Singapore Huddle together again. This is only the beginning. More meetups soon! 🫡

$BTC can't seem to push above $65k, but there's clearly a lot of demand around $60k so any attempt to push us below that level will be short lived IMO.

$$ACE is down 20.81% over the past 24 hours, now at 0.1395, with $268 million in trading volume. This coin was still hovering around 0.18 yesterday, but today it plunged straight to 0.1302. Bottom-fishers and those holding through the dip are all bleeding. My ACE short position is showing a 12% floating profit—I caught this drop.
First, my trading plan: I’m still holding my short position, with the stop-loss moved up to 0.1480 and the take-profit target at 0.1280. If you’re still on the sidelines and want to participate, wait for one of two scenarios. First, if the price retests around 0.1300

August 17 BTC outlook
Current price: $63,088. Sellers are currently in control, with weak short-term rebound momentum. Any move higher will encounter selling pressure.
BTC has posted a slight gain over the past 24 hours, but market sentiment has already shifted bearish. Buying momentum is insufficient, making it difficult for a rally to continue. The market is now oscillating within a broad range, and bulls lack sufficient momentum to break through the overhead resistance. The rebound is more of a technical recovery than a reversal signal.
The market is generally under pressure. Once bullish m
