🇺🇸 WASHINGTON IS BRINGING CRYPTO AND PREDICTION MARKETS CLOSER TO THE REGULATORY TABLE
The White House is reportedly planning a meeting with executives from the crypto and prediction-market industries on August 19.
The timing is particularly interesting.
Just one day later, the CFTC will hold the inaugural meeting of its Innovation Advisory Committee, with crypto assets, artificial intelligence and prediction markets among the topics on the agenda. The CFTC has officially announced that meeting.
🏛️ WHY THIS TIMING MATTERS
The White House gathering has been reported by multiple outlets, cit

$BCH — BEARISH STRUCTURE WITH HEAVY WHALE SELLING!
$BCH ‌
Class, look at BCH. Price is $205.54, down 4.3% today. Market structure is bearish. Funding rate is -1.0000%, shorts are aggressive. Long/Short ratio is 0.67 — more shorts than longs. Whale buy pressure is only 27%, sell pressure is 68% — whales are dumping aggressively. The stop-loss hunt probability is 42%, targeting buy-side liquidity. Volume change is 4% of market cap, which is moderate.
What I'm watching: Support at $200, resistance at $212. A break below $200 targets $195, then $188. If price breaks above $212, the bearish struct

BTC: -20%
Pokémon cards: +29%
yeah, I’m not making this up
$290M was spent in July on blind-box machines where you basically pay to spin the wheel for a vaulted Pokémon card
Jackpot: up to $250K
are Pokémon traders the real degens now?

On chain activity on $AKE is getting interesting.
While the market was chopping, one wallet quietly kept stacking:
→ added another 800M $AKE 3 hours ago
→ now holds 1.58B $AKE
→ zero outflows over the past 3 weeks
Meanwhile, another wallet moved its entire stack to Gate, which could bring some short-term sell pressure. But the size looks relatively small next to the bigger holders still accumulating.
And the 3rd-largest holder?
Another 150M $AKE added.
Liquidations tell another story:
$8.5M wiped out in 24h, with only $1M longs meaning shorts took most of the damage.
Price chopped. Leverage g

“Childhood trauma has turned into midlife trauma”

$ETH breaking $5,000 could be the sign nobody wants to miss.
Not saying this because $5K is some magical number.
Because of what could happen AFTER.
ETH starts running → traders take profits → liquidity searches for higher beta → alts start waking up.
then suddenly coins that nobody cared about yesterday are doing +30%, +50%, +100%.
You know how this movie goes.
ETH first. Alts next.
If the rotation really starts, it can move FAST.
See on other side fams.

I still went long at noon, then there was no signal all afternoon and I was trapped. The key thing is, I stupidly opened a short and kept adding until I got liquidated... 🤣🤣🤣#Gate7月增长Top1

JUST IN: On-chain trader 0xff84 now holds the largest BTC bear position at 2,000 BTC (~$125.37M) with an unrealized $1.79M profit; liquidation price sits around $63.53k. Could mark risk-off pressure if markets move toward that level. $BTC

I don't understand why X can't send a warning before suspending monetization. right now, monetization can get suspended with a simple reason like "spam" or "policy violation."
but which post caused it?
what exactly did we do wrong?
If X showed the specific post or gave a proper reason, we could avoid making the same mistake again.
At least we'd know what caused the suspension.
A simple warning could save a lot of confusion for creators.
