Will Kevin Warsh’s Message Reshape the Crypto Market?
The global financial market is watching closely as Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh’s remarks at the IMF and World Bank Annual Meetings bring inflation, interest rates, artificial intelligence, and economic resilience into focus. His comments could influence investor sentiment across stocks, bonds, gold, and cryptocurrencies.
1. Inflation Remains the Biggest Challenge
Warsh highlighted the resilience of the US and global economies while acknowledging persistent inflationary pressures. Rising energy prices and strong invest

The liquidation fund’s quant principal has increased to 410u...
After 30 days, this amount could cover about 4 servings of pork knuckle rice at 10 CNY each.
Let’s take it slow...

How am I doing so far with papertrader?!
->deposited 50$ to try things out
->ended up being up ~100%
->still managed to earn 1k PAPER
->Sitting top 1k on the LB
Is this considered a win knowing?

ETH is bearish today, with negative factors dominating the short-term trend. The price has fallen below MA200, ETF outflows continue, macro risk aversion is intensifying, and prices are approaching the liquidation levels of highly leveraged long positions below. This is “weak consolidation amid a bearish alignment,” with limited room for a rebound.
Today, ETH is in a bearish setup dominated by “bearish alignment + institutional outflows + macro risk aversion,” though there is short-term demand for an oversold bounce.
· Short term: The price is moving weakly within the 2,393-2,450 range, with h

So someone launched a "competitor" to papertrade on Solana a few days ago and its an offchain fork with subpar risk controls???
Asking for a friend...

On August 15, before the rally, everyone was calling for 50k and 40k. Before the rally on September 15, everyone was calling for 65k. Now everyone is calling for 75k again, but XY thinks that if this move repeats the pattern, compared with the previous two periods of consolidation, this time things should start moving around the 20th—and move sharply higher.
The next weekly candle should be up 20 points. If the market makes a one-way move, Bitcoin should be above 115k within a month. I think the second scenario is very likely. Anyway, $BTC , it has already plunged badly, and it won't break 77,

$EIGEN Sellers apply renewed pressure after another rejection
EIGEN faced resistance near $0.2780, then pulled back to around $0.2590. If weakness persists, the price could fall further to $0.2450 and below, but a break below nearby support needs confirmation.
Short trade strategy: Entry: $0.2590–$0.2630 Take-profit 1: $0.2500 Take-profit 2: $0.2380 Take-profit 3: $0.2220 Stop-loss: $0.2770 Watch for sustained selling pressure before entering. If the price rebounds above $0.2770, this bearish strategy will be less valid.

$EPIC I bet it’ll fall back below 0.26 within 48 hours. I’m betting 50U—here’s the screenshot. Those who chased in at 0.3041 today are probably enjoying the 28% gain over 24h, but from a low of 0.2175 to a high of 0.3350, that’s a 54% range—a classic pump-and-dump pattern. The 63M in trading volume can’t support this level. I entered at 0.29 and didn’t sell at 0.33. I got greedy and only cut my losses when it pulled back to 0.31, losing 7 points. My mindset was, “Let’s wait a little longer; it could still push higher.” Instead, I got a red candle. Lesson learned: don’t hold coins that surge o

Not bad for a sophomore’s first try, right? I’ll keep working hard to catch up with all you pros soon

$ZEC Shorting aggressively again now. Thanks, James, tonight
Entry price 1145-1195, stop-loss 1255, take-profit 1100-1040. Short $ZEC 👇

$UNI SHORT SETUP — SELLERS TAKING CONTROL 📉
Entry: 7.18 – 7.28 (Short) SL: 7.42 TP1: 7.10 TP2: 7.00 TP3: 6.90 TP4: 6.75
$UNI is showing bearish pressure on the 1H chart, with lower highs and repeated rejection near 7.35.
As long as price stays below 7.42, further downside remains possible. A sustained breakout above 7.42 would invalidate this setup.

Does SK Hynix still have room to fall,
Personally, I think there's a lot of downside. It all depends on the market maker's mood.
You can short with a stop-loss; don't rush to buy the dip—it could fall to around 500.

Want to know how I can tell this selloff isn’t a big deal? (not kidding)
Nobody can agree on WHY it’s happening
AI debt. Hot inflation. Iran. Cheap Chinese memory chips. Midterms. Pick your headline
When something actually big happens, everybody knows the reason on day one. COVID was a big deal thing. China invading Taiwan would be a big deal thing
Yesterday... The S&P fell 1%, it’s 2% off its all time high... & every account on here has a different explanation
So what did I do?
I checked if anything changed with the data that moves the needle.
Valuations? Forward PE is 19 (ok)
Economy? Unempl
