#Bitcoin has surpassed the limit of a "speculative asset", valuation is not limited to belief.
For more than a decade, #Bitcoin has consistently set new price peaks after each #Halving, while #Gold has only recorded strong breakthroughs during periods of monetary instability or expanded global liquidity.
- It reflects a clear difference in the nature of both these assets.
#Gold is valued based on its role as a store of value that has existed for thousands of years. The price of gold is rising as investors seek safety from inflation, geopolitical risks and declining confidence in fiat currencie

Major Events Preview This Week: US Core Employment Data Released, SpaceX Brings the Largest Unlock in History, Tech Stocks Enter Another Earnings Season
On August 3, early this week, Trump gave risk assets a reassurance to the market—he will seek talks with Iran and suspend attacks. However, Asian-Pacific markets opened lower and then trended down on Monday, which the market did not buy into; it seems the market is still adjusting within the cycle. This week, macro data and company earnings reports will be released in a dense stream. Market focus centers on Friday’s US July nonfarm payrolls re

#GateCardUpTo8%Cashback – The New Standard for Crypto Spending

In the morning session, just stay bearish on BTC—and the price action is moving exactly as expected. The highs keep slipping lower, and the bulls’ rebounds don’t have the strength. Brothers who followed the trend and set it up accordingly—this leg of the drop, the profits are safely locked in. Once you can read the chart’s trend, you’ll save yourself from a lot of detours in trading.

#USD1StakingEarnUpTo8%APR USD1 Staking Earn Up To 8 Percent APR
I have been testing stablecoin yield products since early 2025 and in August 2026 the conversation has finally shifted from hype to real revenue. USD1 staking is the clearest example right now. The headline is simple. Stake USD1 and earn up to 8 percent APR. But what matters is where that yield comes from, how safe it is, and whether it makes sense in the current rate environment. After 6 weeks of using it, reading the reserve reports, and talking to treasury teams who are using it for working capital, here is my full breakdown.

#USIranTalksSendOilPricesSharplyLower
US Iran Talks Send Oil Prices Sharply Lower: Brent and Crude Oil Analysis
The United States and Iran talks have sent oil prices sharply lower, creating one of the most significant price moves of the year. As of August 2, 2026, Brent crude fell to 83.81 dollars per barrel, a decline of 4.69 percent from the previous close. Over the past month, Brent has risen by 16.23 percent, and it remains up by 21.88 percent year on year. The daily drop looks sharp, but the yearly trend has been strongly higher due to the Middle East conflict and the closure of the Stra

The first trading day of August
Can you be nicer to me?

Recapping the outlook shared yesterday: Big pie set a sell-buy zone at 635-640, with the highest reaching 63779, entering the planned range precisely.
Then it slid downward all the way; currently, the lowest has dipped to 62716.
For the second pie, a sell-buy zone was given at 1880-1900, with the highest hitting 1898—perfectly triggering it. Currently, the lowest has fallen to 1850.
The market won’t stop just because you hesitate, but it will give answers to those who prepare in advance.
The August kickoff continues the rhythm.
One successful fulfillment can be called a coincidence; consecutiv

#GateStocksZeroFees Gate Stocks Zero Fees
I have been testing brokerage platforms and crypto exchanges for the last 5 years and August 2026 just gave us a move that changes how people think about trading costs. Gate announced zero fees on stocks. Not discounted fees. Not promotional fees. Zero commission trading on stocks for all users. After using the product for 3 weeks, reading the terms, and talking to their team about how they make money, here is the full breakdown of what this means, how it works, and who it is actually for.
First the headline. Starting August 1 2026, Gate launched stock

U姐8.3 sol midday strategy
4-hour structure: The high at 75.28 formed a stage top. After the spike and pullback, it consolidated and drifted downward; the rebound strength kept weakening. The Bollinger Bands have turned downward. Price is trading below the Bollinger middle band, so in the short term it leans toward weak consolidation. It follows BTC and ETH, moving in tandem. The main intraday line is to sell short on rallies.
Short positions (main idea)
Entry range: 73.80 — 74.30, scale in short
First target: 72.00 (reduce position on a short-term basis)
Second target: 70.50 (support at this r

Microsoft cuts $15 billion in spending, shares jump 8%—but the truth may be the one you got wrong
Microsoft’s just-released earnings report looks fantastic.
But the most explosive part is this:
Microsoft’s 2026 capital expenditure guidance is cut from $190 billion to $175 billion.
That’s a full $15 billion less.
After-hours share price jumps by more than 8%. The market is cheering—“The AI money-burning boom is finally cooling down!”
But I want to tell you a painful fact:
Not a single dollar of that $15 billion was actually cut.
What does that mean?
Microsoft extends the depreciation life of it
