Data from Coinbase-owned Deribit, a crypto options exchange, showed that in an Oct. 12 snapshot the Oct. 16 settlement carried approximately 15,502 BTC in outstanding options, comprising 9,128 BTC in puts and 6,373 BTC in calls. The put-to-call ratio stands at 1.43, with about $451 million in underlying notional exposure concentrated in puts at $76,00

Saylor hinted on X at new Bitcoin purchases after Strategy spent $176.3 million repurchasing STRC versus $28.7 million on BTC. Confirmation from the SEC is not expected before Tuesday.
Strategy Chairman Michael Saylor hinted on Sunday, October 11, that the company had continued buying Bitcoin, following a week in which it spent more than six times its weekly BTC budget on repurchasing its own shares.
In an X post, Saylor wrote: “There is always room for more orange.” Orange is the color associated with Bitcoin, and the message was interpreted as a signal of new purchases. Data in an 8-K filing

Are you still holding ZEC at $1,195?
From $1,650 to $1,195, 28% is gone. ETFs are seeing redemptions, leverage is getting liquidated, and everyone is asking: Is the privacy narrative dead? But the weekly chart hasn’t died yet—is this the final drop, or the beginning of a bear market?
First, look at the surface: support broke, and longs were swept.
Over 24 hours, it swung from $1,125 to $1,310, with volume expanding and long liquidations clearly exceeding short liquidations. Market cap remains around $20 billion, ranking 10th, while the one-year gain is still above 300%. The candlesticks tell y

Every few years, the market presents an opportunity that can change ordinary people’s financial fortunes.
$BTC in 2012, $TSLA Tesla in 2018, Nvidia $NVDA in 2022, $PLTR in 2023, and SanDisk $SNDK in 2025.
Before their breakouts, most of these assets went through periods when the market was not optimistic about them.
The most important test of an investor’s vision is whether they can identify value before the market reaches a consensus and have the patience to hold on.
More than half of 2026 has already passed. Which asset do you think people will look back on five years from now and regre

$BAT Current price is 0.1792. The first resistance above is the Bollinger upper band at 0.1904, while support below is between MA5 at 0.1822 and MA20 at 0.1635. After surging 23.67% in 24h, the price has reached the Bollinger upper band, entering the edge of overbought territory in the short term.
From a sentiment perspective, the Fear & Greed Index is 57, in the greed zone, indicating that market risk appetite remains strong, but this is no longer a position for blindly chasing highs. BTC's stable performance is driving rotation among major coins. Older small-cap coins like BAT have been rapi

South Korean Stocks Are Crashing: Is This the Right Time to Buy Samsung Electronics and SK hynix?
When a market falls sharply, the hardest decision is not whether prices look cheaper than before. The real question is whether the decline has created genuine value or whether the market is warning us about risks that have not yet been fully priced in.
That is exactly how I am looking at the recent weakness in South Korean stocks, particularly Samsung Electronics and SK hynix.
Both companies sit at the center of the semiconductor industry, and their performance is closely connected to

The tariffs are in effect, so why hasn’t the price moved? Because the market had already priced in the expectations. The real variable is whether the Fed cuts rates and when. Weekend trading volume is only 30% of weekday levels, so even a little volume can push the price up. Times like this really test whether you have enough inventory on hand. Save this assessment for now, and we’ll come back tomorrow to verify it.
