Seeing someone say that AAVE could reach $3,500 by 2030, I couldn't help but chuckle after reading it.
I think AAVE is indeed a good project, and it's fine to discuss it long-term. But as soon as the conversation starts, mentioning thousands of dollars, it just feels a bit like shouting slogans.

Recently experienced a pretty interesting project—@TurboFlow_xyz
First, the background: TurboFlow has just completed a $6 million funding round led by Pantera Capital, with SIG Crypto and DCG participating.
Honestly, in the current market environment, being able to secure such institutional backing already indicates some issues: the prediction market and event trading track are regaining attention.
I've always believed that the success of Polymarket proves one thing—people are naturally willing to pay for "information gaps" and "judgment."
But traditional prediction markets still have high barriers for ordinary users.
What surprised me about TurboFlow is that it lowered the participation threshold to just 2 USDT, and adopted an event contract mode, making the interface much simpler, allowing beginners to get started in minutes.
In actual experience, opening positions and settlement logic are quite intuitive, more like trading the event itself rather than researching complex financial products.
Additionally, the platform supports up to 1000x leverage and a zero-fee mechanism, which is attractive to users who enjoy short-term event trading.
If Asia can develop its own prediction market platform in the future, I believe the key isn’t how high the leverage is, but who can turn complex markets into products that ordinary people can participate in.
From this perspective, TurboFlow is worth continuous observation.
Currently, the TurboFlow ambassador program has also launched, inviting users to participate in event contract trading during the event period, with a chance to share additional reward pools.

You can also personally experience event contracts and see how much your market judgment is worth.

$1,670 ETH, are you going to buy the dip?

The foundation laid off 54 people, cut the budget by 40%, and the price halved from $3,800 to $1,670—yet BitMine just bought nearly 5% of the entire network's ETH.

Down 7.5% in a week, 21% in January, 31% in a year.

In the 2022 bear market, ETH dropped from $4,800 to $880, three times worse than now.

And then? It rose to over $4,000.

First thing: the foundation laid off staff, the market misinterpreted it

Yesterday (June 23), the Ethereum Foundation announced layoffs of 54 people, with a 40% budget cut.

As soon as the news broke, everyone was shouting: "ETH is doomed!"

The price plummeted from $1,730 directly to $1,640.

Vitalik personally came out and said—it's not a lack of funds, but a shift to an "endowment model," spending only 5% of the treasury annually, aiming for sustainability by 2030.

Previously it was "burning money to expand," now it's "streamlining and reducing staff."

Second thing: what are smart money doing?

BitMine (under Tom Lee) continues to buy ETH heavily, now holding nearly 5% of the entire network.

An institution holding 5% of all ETH—what does that mean?

And big institutions like BlackRock, although ETF outflows occurred, in April they had 10 consecutive days of inflows totaling over $600 million.

Institutions aren’t fleeing—they’re slowly accumulating at the bottom.

Third thing: a technical signal appears

Daily chart shows price oscillating in the 1600-1700 range, sideways for nearly two weeks.

Below 1620-1650 is a strong demand zone, repeatedly defended.

RSI is neutral, not oversold—indicating selling pressure is waning.

Volume shrinks during pullbacks, not panic selling.

Short-term resistance at 1730-1750; as long as volume breaks above, the rebound target is directly at 1845-1900.

But if 1620 breaks down, the next support is 1530 or even lower.

Bull-bear showdown, you decide.

One side (bears say it’s grim now):

Foundation layoffs 20%, budget cut 40%

Down 31% in a year, from $3,800 to $1,670

Fed hawkish, interest rate at 3.75%, possible rate hikes later this year

U.S. Treasury yields at 4.4%, funds not flowing into risk assets

ETH/BTC ratio hitting new lows

The other side (bulls say opportunity is here):

BitMine holds nearly 5% of all ETH, actively buying with real money

Foundation restructuring is "long-termism," not a "death signal"

1650-1620 is a historical demand zone, repeatedly defended

ETF long-term trend remains, institutions are adopting slowly but surely

Vitalik personally set the tone, core development hasn't stopped

Key levels:

Upper resistance: 1700 → 1730-1750 → 1845 → 1900-2000

Lower support: 1650 → 1620 → 1580 → 1530

Short-term traders:

Lightly buy in the 1650-1670 range, stop-loss at 1620

First target: take half at 1700-1720

Break above 1730 with volume, chase longs, stop-loss at 1700, target 1845-1900

Swing traders:

Wait for daily close above 1730 before entering

Use trailing stop to hold, target 2000-2200

Don’t get shaken out by manipulation, but stop-loss below 1620

Long-term believers:

Invest blindly below 1650, buy more as it dips

You didn’t dare buy ETH at 880 in 2022, but in 2024 you’ll kick yourself at 4000

This time at 1670, you decide

But remember—don’t exceed 30% of your total position, keep cash for black swans

The safest strategy:

Wait.

Wait for next week’s inflation data, wait for Fed tone to shift, wait for BTC to stabilize at 65,000.

Right-side trading always beats bottom-fishing on the left.

ETH now looks a lot like late 2022 at $880—

99% of people thought "this time is different, ETH is going to zero."

But in 2024, it hit over $4,000, and those who sold in panic never got back in.

$1,670—are you telling me ETH is finished?

Ethereum’s greatest strength isn’t that it never falls,

but that every time you think it’s dead, it comes back stronger.

This time, it’s the same. #0成本拿2股SK海力士 #Gate股票7x24小时交易 #我的Gate交易时刻 $ETH $SOL $BTC

$BTC is sitting at a critical level right now.

Price continues to respect the demand zone while moving inside a descending triangle, showing that buyers are still defending this area. But the pressure is building, and this kind of structure rarely stays quiet for long.

A strong breakout could trigger fresh momentum and push BTC toward higher levels. On the other hand, losing this support could open the door for a deeper pullback.

The next move is likely to be a big one. Stay patient, watch the key levels, and let the market reveal its direction before making aggressive moves.

Although I didn't get any scores right 😭 but Portugal, Croatia, and Colombia all successfully won or lost, England and China indeed are the most likely to produce surprises, finally being held to a draw by Ghana. Continuing to watch a round of the World Cup today,
My score predictions are:
Switzerland 1-1 Canada, Bosnia and Herzegovina 2-0 Qatar, Scotland 0-2 Brazil
Morocco 3-0 Haiti, Czech Republic 1-2 Mexico, South Africa 1-2 South Korea.
Today, I am most optimistic about Brazil, Morocco, and South Korea, and the most likely upset to watch out for is Switzerland vs. Canada. Canada is in great form, but Switzerland has a strong defensive resilience, so I lean more towards a draw between the two @bcgame

$20M potentially exploited from SecondFi.
$ADA just hit its lowest level since December 2020.
In crypto, trust is lost faster than liquidity.

Today, all four World Cup matches have concluded. Let's review my predictions from yesterday: Portugal match 👉 correct in win/loss direction; Panama match 👉 main selected score hit; Colombia match 👉 correct in win/loss direction; England match 👉 the only upset, hit. The accuracy rate continues to stay at 75%, hoping for a 100% hit rate soon. Starting tomorrow, the group stage enters the third round. Here are the predictions directly below ⬇️

The current group members are really damn annoying.
This morning, I saw in the group that everyone stayed up late watching the game, and each said they were grateful to England, so they wouldn't need to drive anymore.
Waiting for a long time, no one sent red envelopes, turns out they all lost their bets.
Then suddenly, someone came in saying they watched a video account and wanted to buy a small car.
To be honest, I’m really happy for you if you earned a few thousand bucks, brothers.
But you just go ahead and buy a car right away, and everyone finds it a bit hard to accept.
Damn, watching the game is not as good as watching videos, I also want to buy a car 💪

Recently, due to the World Cup, Dragon Boat Festival, VIP events, and so on,
I've received over ten sets of merchandise (just football-related items alone, I've received four).
There's no more space to store them at home.
How should I handle this?

$16 LAB, do you dare to buy the dip?

First look at the surface: bad news bombarding, but the price is rebounding.

In the past 24 hours, the fluctuation exceeded 30%, with trading volume in the hundreds of millions of dollars. Over the past 7 days, it has risen 26.6%, over 30 days up 294%, and over a year surged 168,610%—from $0.010 to $16.462. The candlestick chart shows: after dropping from 27.22 to 8.7, a volume-driven rebound at the bottom, some are buying the dip, but beware of a trap set by the dog whales to lure retail.

First thing: 99% of the chips are in the hands of 30 people, you're playing a solo game

BubbleMaps on-chain data confirms: 30 whales control 99% of LAB supply.

They can pump or dump at will. From early May to early June, whales precisely increased their holdings, then LAB was violently pumped 37 times. On June 2, it hit a new high of $27.22, then crashed straight to 8.7 three days later—30 wallets all hitting the sell button together.

Second thing: 282 million tokens unlock bomb, 50 days countdown

On August 14, 282 million LAB tokens unlock.

This accounts for nearly 90% of the current circulating supply. At the current price, liquidity worth about $2.3 billion to $3.1 billion floods into the market.

Circulating supply is only 312 million tokens. Low circulation + high FDV is a classic "pump and dump" script. Fully diluted market cap once exceeded $27 billion—more expensive than many Layer 1 blockchains.

Who will absorb such a large unlock?

Third thing: PiggyBank got exploited, who’s next?

On June 6, DeFi protocol PiggyBank was manipulated via LAB "basis trading," losing $579k directly, with USDC vaults withdrawn by 15%.

On-chain analyst ZachXBT repeatedly warned that LAB is a "retail trap."

If even the project team can be exploited, do you expect them to be responsible to you?

Fourth thing: The product is real, but "buyback" can't save the market

LAB does have products—multi-chain trading terminals covering Solana, Ethereum, BNB Chain, and a mobile app is also live. The platform has a buyback mechanism, using fees to buy and burn LAB, with 22 million tokens already bought back.

Sounds like a positive flywheel?

If buybacks worked so well, why did the price drop from 27 to 8 without institutional support?

Having products ≠ having value, having buybacks ≠ avoiding dumps.

Bull vs. bear, see for yourself

One side (bulls telling stories):

Up 1,500x in a year, 294% in 30 days, momentum still strong

Multi-chain trading terminal + AI engine + mobile app, backed by Animoca and other institutions

Whale holdings skew bullish, long/short ratio 260%

129 long whales average entry at $10.25, still adding positions

Rebounded from 8.7 to 16, technicals show recovery

The other side (bears telling the truth):

30 whales control 99% of chips, the market maker calls the shots

On August 14, 282 million tokens unlock, huge potential selling pressure

Fell from 27 to 8.7, 70% drop in three days

Manipulation accusations + PiggyBank exploited for $570k

Circulating only 31%, FDV seriously inflated

24-hour trading volume $223 million, price down 19.42%—volume surge at high levels, sharp decline, indicating dumping not a shakeout

Key levels

Resistance above: 16.2 (short-term obstacle) → 17.0 (momentum confirmation zone) → 17.8-18 (extension zone) → 19-20 (psychological barrier)

Support below: 14.5 (first line of defense) → 14.0 (key structure) → 13.0 (moderate correction) → 12.0 (deep support)

Brothers already holding:

At least sell half in the 16-17 range, take back your principal. Leave the other half with a stop-loss at 13.5, let profits run. This coin isn’t worth "long-term faith."

Brothers wanting to buy the dip:

Wait. Wait for a retest at 14-14.5, then enter lightly on volume-confirmed reversal on the 1-hour chart. Stop-loss strictly at 13.3. Take half profit at 17, then look for 18.8 on breakout.

Brothers wanting to short:

If the rebound to around 17 shows obvious volume decline and can’t push higher, go short lightly. Target 14→12. Stop-loss above 18.

Position control:

No more than 2-3% of total funds per trade. This thing’s volatility of 50% is like playing with fire. Going all-in = courting death.

Before unlock (July-August), significantly reduce or clear positions and watch.

LAB now is like SHIB in 2021—

99% of people think "this time is different, this is real value," but when whales dump, you realize you don’t even know who your opponent is.

It’s not LAB going to zero, it’s you who can’t hold—

But holding might make it go to zero even faster. #0成本拿2股SK海力士 #Gate股票7x24小时交易 $BTC $ETH $LAB

Altcoin MCap will soon enter the bottoming phase.
This is exactly when you should accumulate for the long-term.

SK Hynix plans to raise nearly $30 billion through a U.S. ADR, which on the surface is an IPO financing, but behind it is actually an escalation in the AI storage war.

Compared to related U.S. stock targets, it may continue to boost attention on #MU #NVDA #AVGO #MRVL #ASML #AMAT #LRCX #SMCI #DELL #VRT #CEG #VST and other AI infrastructure chains.
But also be cautious: the most exciting time for semiconductors is often when the entire industry is most prone to疯狂扩产 (rampant expansion).
If AI demand doesn’t materialize as quickly as expected, it will shift from “supply shortage” to “valuation pressure testing.”
