Many people in the market are waiting for silver to break higher, with some already calling for targets of $35 or even $40 per ounce. But I’m more inclined to expect a pullback first. The reason is straightforward: the funding rate for perpetual contracts has been positive for three consecutive days, which means longs have to pay shorts funding every day. The cost may seem small on its own, but at 0.01% every 8 hours, it adds up to about 0.09% over three days, or nine settlement periods, equivalent to an annualized rate of nearly 11%; if the rate reaches 0.03%, the annualized rate exceeds 30%.

The U.S.'s crypto holdings shrink by $16 billion: from $41 billion to $25 billion
Compared with the peak a year ago, the crypto assets held by the U.S. have now shrunk by $16 billion.
Peak last year: $41 billion.
Now: $25 billion.
What happened?
The cryptocurrencies held by the U.S. $BTC mainly came from law-enforcement seizures. The size of these holdings changes with market prices. The main reasons are:
First, the decline was mainly due to mark-to-market losses caused by falling market prices.
Second, some have already been sold. A significant amount of the seized Bitcoin was sold through a

A false breakout can trap impatient traders, but strong buying pressure may signal a bigger move ahead. ☕️🚀 Wait for a confirmed candle close above resistance, watch volume, and manage risk carefully. Do you trade breakouts or wait for retests? 📈

The crypto world really is a slapdash operation—$XRP can even be minted out of thin air?
XRPL officially disclosed that an overflow vulnerability introduced in 2015 could mint massive amounts of XRP.
The good news is that it was quietly fixed at the end of September, and officials said they found no evidence of exploitation.
Hidden for 11 years, it was only uncovered by AI.
All I want to say is, how many bugs in crypto projects are still waiting to be uncovered?
Hacker Summer!

Tell a joke
One night before going to bed, a couple imagined how they would live after getting 5 million.
They ended up getting into a huge fight over how to split the money, and the police had to settle it.🤣

#WCTCS9 #币圈观察员 1011 Anniversary of $19 billion in liquidations!
On October 11 one year ago, the crypto market witnessed a single-day liquidation event that went down in industry history. Total liquidations across the network exceeded $19 billion, and Bitcoin fell 12.7% in half an hour.
Many market participants are still considering one question: before a black swan event occurs, there are often no obvious warning signals in the market. With hardware wallets continuously revealing security vulnerabilities and fake websites persistently targeting users, could such security incidents trigger mark

#Ledger事件损失近9000万
1. The $MULedger Supply Chain Compromise: How Much Security Work Remains?
The reported losses serve as a major wake-up call for the entire crypto industry. On October 9, 2026, a blockchain analytics firm estimated that approximately $NVDAmillion had been drained from 311 wallets associated with purchased Ledger devices. This figure is an estimate for research purposes, not a final, independently verified total loss.
The recent $TSLAexploit involving tampered Ledger hardware wallets—linked to third-party reseller distribution and hardware implants—highlights a fundamental shi

A rare weekend, so I took my daughter out for a stroll,
stepping away from the charts to spend some time with the little one.

After a high-volume decline on the daily chart, the rebound has been weak; without an actual positive catalyst, it will be difficult for the uptrend to resume, and the daily timeframe remains in a choppy downward trend

$ETH Lost $2,500. The ETF Bid Left First. 🔷
Spot is fighting $2,490–$2,500. The weekly high was $2,735. From Oct 4 to Oct 8 ETH gave back about 10%, worse than BTC. This is not a clean bounce. It is a broken round number.
Why it cracked
Spot ETH ETFs bled nine straight days. The week ended Oct 9 saw about $542M out, the largest since January. ETHA alone was roughly $477M. Perps are short-leaning. Open interest is soft. About 100,000 ETH moved back onto exchanges while BTC was leaving. That is supply, not a narrative.
The Setup:
$2,500 is now resistance until reclaimed. First real demand is $2

#CRCL领涨加密股 CRCL is rallying on the “infrastructure narrative”!
Behind the crypto sector’s strength: a bigger signal
Capital is shifting from “buying BTC” to “buying crypto companies”—IBIT is up only 1%, while crypto operating stocks are up 4-7%, showing that the market is “upgrading its positioning”: from “asset exposure” to “business exposure.” This typically occurs when **the market’s trust in crypto shifts from “speculation” to “business”**—institutions are willing to pay for the business models of “exchanges, stablecoins, and treasury companies,” rather than merely paying for token prices
